WHY OWNERS COME BACK

Most shops hide the math. We email you a line-item before lifting the hood.

We started Apex because the auto-service industry trades on confusion. Transparent estimates, OEM parts, certified labor, and a guarantee in writing — every single time.

12-MONTH / 24,000-MILE LABOR WARRANTY

Estimates before any wrench turns.

You see the full invoice — labor, parts, and tax — before we begin. No “while we’re in there” surprises.

OEM-grade parts as the default.

Aftermarket only if you ask. Every part carries its own warranty on top of ours.

Master technicians, not lube-rack staff.

Every job is performed by an ASE-certified master tech. Apprentices observe — they don’t turn wrenches.

On-time or it’s on us.

Same-day diagnostics on most issues. Late delivery? You get a $50 service credit.

Courtesy car, free.

Drop your car off, take a clean loaner. Yours back the same day for routine jobs.

05 / PROCESS
FROM DROPOFF TO DRIVEAWAY

Four steps. No surprises. Ever.

Most repairs go from dropoff to keys-back the same day. Complex jobs get a written timeline before we touch a bolt.

01

Book online or call.

Pick a slot in 60 seconds. We confirm by text or email — no phone tree.

02

Diagnostic on arrival.

Hands-on inspection by a master tech. Estimate emailed before we begin.

03

Approved work only.

You approve the line-items. We don’t turn a wrench until you sign off.

04

Pickup, warrantied.

12-month / 24,000-mile labor warranty. Free 30-day check-back.

WHAT OWNERS SAY

Apex saved our weekend trip. They diagnosed the brake issue in twenty minutes, sent us a line-item estimate before lunch, and we drove out by 3 PM with a printed warranty in the glove box. The shop is spotless. The techs explain everything. I don’t take my Audi anywhere else.

Sarah K. 2019 Audi Q5 · Verified Owner · Portland, OR

“Diagnosed an electrical issue three other shops missed. Fair pricing and a print-out of every step. Bookmarked.”

Marcus T. 2017 BMW 540i

“Bought my classic from a friend in rough shape. Apex did a full restoration — engine, interior, paint. Took 11 weeks. Worth every dollar.”

Priya R. 1968 Mercedes 280SL

“I run a small delivery fleet. Apex services all 12 of our vans on a rotating schedule. Downtime is way down since we switched.”

09 / FAQ
COMMON QUESTIONS

Everything we get asked twice.

Don’t see your question here? Call us or use the contact form — we usually reply within an hour during business hours.

Do I need an appointment, or can I just walk in?

Appointments are strongly preferred — we run a tight schedule and want to give your car proper attention. For genuine emergencies (won’t start, brake failure), call us directly and we’ll get you in same-day if at all possible.

Will you use OEM or aftermarket parts?

OEM-grade is our default for everything from filters to electronics. We’ll quote aftermarket if you ask, but we’ll never silently substitute. Each part comes with its manufacturer warranty in addition to our labor warranty.

What does the 12-month / 24,000-mile warranty cover?

All labor we perform and most parts we install. If anything we touched fails within the warranty window, you bring it back and we fix it free. Wear items (brakes, tires) are excluded by industry convention.

Do you service electric vehicles and hybrids?

Yes — including Tesla Model S, 3, X, Y, Rivian R1T/R1S, and most hybrid drivetrains from Toyota, Honda, Ford, and Hyundai. Two of our techs are EV-certified.

How long does diagnostic work usually take?

Most check-engine and electrical diagnostics are completed same-day. Intermittent issues sometimes require a multi-day road test, and we’ll provide a courtesy car for those.

Can I drop my car off after hours?

Yes — we have a 24-hour secure key drop at the side entrance. Just fill out the envelope with your contact info and a brief description, and we’ll call you in the morning.
