Parkrose Auto & Truck Repair, Inc

Parkrose Auto & Truck Repair is a truck and diesel shop based in the NE Portland neighborhood, and you bring the RV to its shop on NE 105th Ave. It calls itself "Specializing In: Diesel Performance, Fleet and Commercial Vehicles, RV's and MORE"

Its listed services are routine maintenance, brake repair, transmission overhauls and Sprinter van repairs, worked by ASE certified technicians on foreign and domestic vehicles of all makes and models. No specific RV systems or RV types are named, so if your rig has a particular problem, a fridge, a slide-out, a generator, call ahead and ask if that is something the shop handles before you drive over.

There is no published hourly rate or diagnostic fee, so ask about cost when you call. Hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30am to 5pm, closed weekends. Parkrose backs its work with a Nationwide Warranty Program, which matters if you are traveling through and something goes wrong again down the road, since a nationwide warranty can be honored at another shop instead of sending you back to Portland.

The shop has been a family business in the neighborhood and names Dan among its people. One review describes him spending two hours on a pre-buy inspection of a used diesel truck and walking the owner through what he found, which is the kind of thorough, plain-spoken service a worried buyer wants before handing over money. Google rates it 4.5 stars from 95 reviews.

This is a good fit for an owner near Portland with a diesel-chassis RV or Sprinter-based rig needing routine maintenance, brakes or a transmission job, who can bring it to the shop during weekday hours.
