Moved to Portland about a year ago and dreaded the day I would need to find a mechanic. Honestly, Ken's is the best. Not pushy at all. Felt like I was given honest quotes and my car is running perfectly again. If I ever need service again I know where I will go.

The best shop in Portland, and probably one of the best on the West coast! Fair, honest and friendly! I can't say enough good things about KVD.

We've been going to Ken Van Damme's for years, and I'm always impressed by their speed, professionality and trustworthiness, and reasonable prices. They fixed my leaky roof within two hours of drop off!

Fast, kind, fair pricing, but best of all HONEST. I initially took my car to Sun Auto on Sandy and they quoted me $1800 and 7-10 day to replace my accelerator pedal system (the sensor on my accelerator pedal was broken). Ken Van Damme's charged me $370 and got it done in just a few hours. Everything is working just fine now! Really glad I called for a second opinion and glad I brought my car here. Thank you!

As a woman, I generally find car mechanic dealings tedious because I always feel lied to or talked down to. I did NOT have that experience at Ken Van Damme's Automotive. Everyone was friendly and professional. I appreciated that I got an estimate up front that was accurate. I also appreciate that fo a service where I was going to bring my own part (but in the end did not) I was given clear pricing for both "bring the part" and "we supply the part." I needed 3 distinct things repaired. I was able to get an appointment about 6 days after my email inquiry. The work was done in a timely manner and I'm very happy with it. This is my new go-to auto shop.Services: Electrical repair, Air & cabin filter replacement, Electrical, Engine repair, Auto maintenance

I have all ways got my GMC Yukon return to me from Ken Van Damme's Auto in much better running order than when I dropped it off. Also, they do what I want done, if more is required, I am advised and offered a professional advise on waiting to repair additional items, if I am not prepared to have additional service done at that time.

Really appreciate their professionalism & good work. They consistently quote & schedule accurately, communicate well, and give a solid timeline of when we can expect to get our vehicle back. They always take the time to answer questions and explain problems. After years of trying different repair shops without great results, I m relieved to find a shop we can trust and depend on.

The best place in Portland to have your car serviced if you want honesty and great quality work!

Reliable, quality work. They'll tell you when work is not worth doing or too risky of trouble on an older car.

Phenomenal service! We got a piece of something in our tire that caused it to deflate and we needed it fixed fast as I had to drive out of town the next day. Ken Van got our tire fixed and ready by the next morning! Thank you so much!
