Bandon Auto Repair, llc

Easy fix. Don't worry about it. Bolt must have came loose. We fixed it. 5 minutes. I thought it to be a wheel bearing. No.

Was on vacation truck broke down, they were slammed but fit me in and got me back on the road! 10 stars

Our camper van broke down and even though this repair shop was clearly very busy and booked out for several days, the owner James kindly gave us some quick diy advice to try to replace our coolant sensor ourselves. We were able to get the part but couldn’t find where it was located on the engine. One of the mechanics helped us locate it. When we couldn’t get the old sensor because of not having the right tools, the owner was kind enough to squeeze us in for an appointment the next morning. Very knowledgeable, reasonable charge and excellent service! I felt they went above and beyond and everyone we spoke to was friendly and helpful. I am so grateful we found this repair shop and highly recommend!

This guys deserve heaven! James and his staff are very helpful people! I was coming from San Francisco to Portland and my tire get flat, so, it was imposible to find a tire for my car at Bandon City for the same day, I was stuck there for one day, then I went to this shop and James figure it out and found me one right away, he took me to another city to pick up and install the new tire on the wheel and bring me back to his shop, he did a lot for me, he help me and finally all works for good I get home. ¡God bless you guys!

***UPDATE 08/03/23**: I continue to be impressed with Bandon Auto! I brought my car in for the scheduled repairs and it was discovered that they received the wrong part. Unfortunately, the correct part is on backorder with an unknown ETA, but they put my car back together and explained some work-arounds I can try in the meantime. Michael was very thorough and patient, and answered all my questions. James assured me he’ll keep trying to get the part or, at least, an ETA. I wasn’t charged for the tear down and reassembly today, and I have my car back for the weekend. These guys are friendly, honest and communicate well. Even though repairs aren’t yet completed, I’m still very pleased with the service! Definitely recommend. ***

I’m very pleased with Bandon Auto Repair! I’ve had a nagging electrical issue with my passenger side window, as well as a rubbing noise from the steering when backing/turning. They did a thorough inspection/test drive and ruled out any serious issue with steering/suspension. After doing an oil change/service and lubing the chassis, the noise seems to have resolved itself. They’ve diagnosed the electrical issue as a shorted out door switch actuator due to water exposure, and will be replacing it next week. I anticipate it will resolve the issue. Their prices are very reasonable, and service is great. I would recommend!

In town from Canada, zero clue who to call! Stressed and frustrated. Called and the kindest voice said, no problem for us to squeeze you in if you can get it here. We did. They kindly and efficiently did a quick test and had us on our way.
Thank you Coughlin!

My oil dip stick was broken off and jammed up in the tube. Experts from the Chrysler Delearship could not pull it out. James from Bandon Auto Repair had the dip stick extracted in 5 seconds. We highly recommend this business for vehicle repair.

James and his staff service all of my vehicles and I wouldn’t take them anywhere else! From custom exhaust and tuning on my diesel to engine and electronics in my luxury car. Bandon Auto is awesome!

Great place! They found and fixed a check engine light that 2 other places couldn't fix. Now my go to shop!

My car wouldn't start on a trip down the coast and they took me right in and took care of everything. They went above and beyond to help me out and get me on my way. Great service and communication.

When the check engine light in our campervan started flashing we called the guys at Bandon Auto Repair. They worked hard to get us back on the road again. We had to wait overnight for a part and they even came in on their day off to fix our van. Everyone was friendly and professional, especially Tony. I'm not an auto price expert but it seemed fair for the amount of work they put into it.

We were 1300 miles from home and had an issue with our diesel truck. Fuel injectors. On our truck this is a major job and not cheap. We could have driven home but the engine could have suffered major damage.

I have to say they charged us a fair price for parts and their labor charge was also fair. But the best part was their service. They quickly diagnosed the problem. They worked over the weekend to get us our truck back the next week. We had planned to stay at the state park for a week so it did not upset our trip too badly.

But our truck was fixed and we made it home. Our truck ran better on the way home than it has in a long time. When on the road, you always worry about the auto shop taking advantage of travelers. That is definitely not the case with Bandon Auto. While it was an expensive repair, their price was fair, the quality of work excellent and the service far above average. If you are on the road and need an honest shop, I think this is one of the best.

Family run James and his wife are great honest people if your broke down in or
Near Bandon there shop is were to go to get you up and running again

I was traveling and stranded when my car wouldn’t start. I was grateful Bandon Auto was able to fit me in that day. They installed a starter. They charged me the same for a remanufactured starter as it would have been for a new one. Two hours down the road, the car would not start. It was the same symptoms. My bill was 557.00 and the car still would not start. I had it towed to a shop. The starter had a warranty, but as it turned out, they had not tightened the battery cable. Makes me wonder if it was ever the starter.
