Customer Testimonials
I made an appointment for routine service, everything was on time and efficient, they did what was requested, inspected the vehicle and made recommendations for the next service appointment.
Purchased a car from Maria. She was Flexible, gracious, knowledgeable, and honest. Highly recommend her!
Very professional no high pressure sales I wasn't passed around during the sale. Jose was informed about the Trax RS and taught me how to use all the accessories included. I was also given a tour of the dealership.
The sales force personnel were outstanding for our experience. They were very attentive to our needs, questions, and product selection.
Jose was very accommodating and respectful. Got us a car from another Tonkin dealership out of town .
Danny was very helpful! I love my car! We will do business there again! Thankyou
Cheryl went above and beyond in ensuring that our extended warranty was charged for our repairs. She spent over 90 minutes on the phone either on hold or speaking with someone who kept asking for unusual documentation. She remained calm and professional throughout, and showed a level of patience that would rival a saint.
I purchased a 2020 Chevy Tahoe for $38,000 from Tonkin Chevrolet, and from the very beginning, it had a serious issue—it would not hold air in the tires due to the chrome rims.
Once I identified the problem, I brought it back immediately because this is a major safety concern. I was told the issue had been fixed. However, after being out of the country for two months, I returned to find two flat tires again—clearly, the problem was never properly resolved.
The dealership then offered to buy the vehicle back for $33,500. I did not feel this was a fair ... Read More

I have had my PU serviced here since new great service . For the love of cars
Just stopped in to “look” at a new truck. But everyone was so nice and took the time to make a great deal on a new truck that looking turned into buying. Thank you Danny for working with us.
Great dealership. The salesman was a good guy and did his best. In the end we got a fair final price on a great vehicle. A few too many trips to the mystery manager though. We were paying cash and should have been in and out of there in an hour or two, four hours later we finished and went home with a new suburban that we came for. But, the salesman was a good guy in the end and would recommend him.
Bought our car, 25 equinox EV. Classic car buying experience; to and fro, up and down... was kinda fun, good deal or, we believe we got a good deal. Brought car in, got to it right away, finished early afternoon, good job. Thanks, Don
I was in from out of town and called last minute for an oil change and was able to get in within a half hour. Oil change was complete in less time than expected. The lady at the service counter was very helpful and friendly. I have been very happy with their service and in fact I use this dealership rather than the one close to my home because I am so much happier with the service at Tonkin.
Fantastic experience buying from these guys - highly recommend - especially David! Thanks again.
The team I worked with were absolute professionals. They listened to what I needed and delivered above my expectations. Great price, without any hassles. Thanks to Christian and Jack!
Christian, was awesome to deal with. Very knowledgeable and informed about our new Chevy RST, that we absolutely love.
I have being using this dealer since 2003 very professional service I like the new video recording of the inspection
Service was great everytime we bought a car. Danny was the best. We drive up from McMinnville and will continue to come up. Also service department very easy to work with.
I was first greeted with a handshake and a question on. Can I help you the people in sales are friendly well informed about the vehicle and made me feel comfortable. They are well informed about all their vehicles details and easy to understand very professional.
The whole team at Tonkin was great! Congrats to Jack on his first new car sale.
I had a totally hasssle free experience, great price on the truck and everybody was very cooperative, right down to the sales manager folllowing me home so my wife could sign the paperwork. I stronly recommend this dealer and staff from my experience
This is the place that gives dealership bad reputations. Kyle Christensen and his team make empty promises, excuses, and if they make a deal there is no after sale customer service. My son bought a used truck, completed understand “as is” but we drove it home at 6pm and when he was driving home which is 10 miles from the dealership the Check engine light comes on and the blinker starts blinking super fast. Take it the next morning when they open and I send an email to Kyle (he never responded) to Ella in the situation. After 2 weeks of no ... Read More

Great service , great people
I took my 22 Chevy High Country into repair it will not shift into Park I was told it's not broken off to even locate needed repair and I would have to wait until the break is worse for them to detect it to fix it
Working with Daniel Sulivan was a pleasure. He made sure I understood the process that we were going through to upgrade my truck from a 1500 to a 2500. It took some time, which Danny made sure I had plenty of Coffee. This is the 2nd truck I have purchased from Tonkin Hillsboro Chevrolet and will go back if trouble or increased need arises
Danny and Jose worked to get us our “new” to us 2018 Lincoln MKX. We were treated with respect and feel that we got a nice vehicle 🚗. Also , a nice plus was free maintenance for 1 year or 15000 miles!
They were friendly,knowledgeable.Answered all questions. Great experience over all
Great experience. Awesome people, Timothy Bell was great help! Would for sure recommend this dealership to others
Always able to book service appointments when needed. Service is completed in good time and service reps are great to work with.
Cheryl and team at Tonkin Chevrolet in Hillsborough did an excellent job for us. They got my truck in diagnosed off the rack in less than a week with transmission troubles when I went in. They weren’t expecting me, but they got me in anyway. Very happy with my experience would look for a personal vehicle here Knowing how good the service is.
Excellent customer service Delightful dealing with April, very caring and competent!
They were awsome. They worked hard to get us the best deal and finance.smooth as silk. Tonkin has always been good to us. We will go back. Thanks to cj and leslie.
Overall the experience was good. My primary issue was the lack of disclosure early on about a coating treatment the dealer had applied to the car. In the end, they reduces the sale price and the cost of the finish, so it worked out OK. I was hoping to avoid this type of price negotiation. The Car also qualifies for the $4000 federal tax credit for used EVs, and we discussed that, but I have nothing (yet) from the dealership verifying that qualification or the required reporting to the IRS within three days.
I have bought 6 new vehicles in my life and dreaded going to a dealer and get upsold or downsold. I visited 6 other Chevrolet Dealers before visiting Tonkin Dealer in Hillsboro and walked away from 3 in total disgust. Lies, deceit and total lack of integrity I encountered.
I was supposed to meet with another associate who was absent when I arrived, but Jose stepped up to the plate and listened to what I wanted and helped through all phases of the sale. He is understanding, compassionate, confident and very professional with his business.
I believe this dealership has raised the bar ... Read More

After driving from Our house near Elkton, we were greeted by salesman we were talking to over phone. He informed us he had moved car right by entrance to his office to keep an eye on it, so no one would decide to buy. The salesman and other members of sales crew were informative, friendly and very professional. The ones necessary to complete the sale stayed late so we wouldn’t need to make the 3 1/2 hour drive again. So, we were able to take the car home that night.
Cheryl was very informative and kept me up to date on the progress of my repair
Was interested in one of their SUV's and they were able to send me pictures and an insightful video which highlighted key features of this make and model 😀🎉
Recently leased a New Chevy Equinox EV and my experience was seamless and easy. I see a lot of New trucks and on the lot too. Jose is the guy you want to talk to. Strongly recommend.
Leslie was fantastic! She made purchasing my first truck a breeze, took the time to answer all my questions, and was incredibly friendly throughout the process. I highly recommend her!
Was interested in one of their SUV's and they were able to send me pictures and an insightful video which highlighted key features of this model. Overall amazing service from start to finish 😀🎉
When I called to make the appointment, Rachel said it would be two hours or less and when I got there, they got right on it and they pushed it out within that time. Very much appreciated. Thank you.
The service writer (April) was great , honest and did her best to get my car in and repaired, the were accurate on when car would be finished
DO NOT GO TO TONKIN CHEVROLET IN HILLSBORO. we went to enquire about the Blazer and Equinox , thier approch is un professional and they dont have any knowledge about GM advetisements. and promtions .
Excellent Service Staff. April really works hard and does everything she can to be helpful. Got my Silverado serviced in a timely manner. Thank You.
Excellent service 💯 everyone is very friendly and professional.
Service Advisor (April) was friendly and efficient. My Silverado was serviced and returned to me in about 45 minutes.
DO NOT GO TO TONKIN CHEVROLET IN HILLSBORO. THE MANAGER MAN SHOVED ME AND WAS SCREAMING AT ME AND MY
BABIES. He followed me in and out of the building I told him he was to aggressive and to please back up he smiled and said “I don’t care” he shoved me to the side and charged over to my car with my babies in it screaming at my mom. BEWARE!!!! I bought a “certified pre owned car” it was broken from day 1. Unfortunately they didn’t have cameras there so the police didn’t have the authority to ... Read More

James was very helpful, he made the selection and purchase a breeze. Found the perfect car for me. Kudos to Chevy for upgrading the 2025 Equinox RS AWD with a tech. package that exceeded my expectations.
After admittedly one (only one in several years) bad experience I gave the service department another try. VERY glad I did! The Service Department is back on track! Had an outstanding experience! Would certainly recommend!
I am a five time returning customer to Tonkin Hillsboro Chevrolet! Salesman "Danny" is top notch!!!
They have some of the friendliest staff here... I always have a great experience coming here
Good buying experience. The sales floor was calm and quiet and the salesperson, Jared, was friendly but professional. I actually enjoyed the process for once,
My 2018 Colorado developed a transmission shudder. Cheryl, from Tonkin Chevrolet service, Hillsboro, OR, suggested the fix could be changing out the ATF fluid to Mobile 1 synthetic....so far, the shudder is going away & the transmission shifts more smoothly. I am optimistic the problem has been resolved.
I live out of state, but Maria has been very acommodating to answer all questions, even at the request of needing pictures of the car taken. They made purchase process easy. Most impressive, they reply to your requests and/or questions quite rapidly.
It was a standard oil change but they got me in on time and it was quickly done
Appointment for 8am, got in earlier. I was in and Out almost before my scheduled time. Cheryl was smiling and efficient with check in and made me feel welcome at the dealership. I bought my car there and always have a good experience with needed maintenance. Thank you.
Fast,prompt service. Service was done in the time frame they said it would be.
Very prompt and professional service. I will recommend it to all

Excellent
Ronnie is the best dude in the business. Give this man a raise!
I’m gonna be honest. I tried to avoid taking my rig to the dealership for service because I was always told they’d be super expensive. But I had a wire harness issue that 3 other shops couldn’t figure out. These guys were able to fix an absolute mess that the previous owner created. Super happy with the quality of the job, the honesty, and the professionalism i experienced. I did have an expensive bill. But they told me straight up what the bill was gonna be before they did the job and it was a massive mess that ... Read More

Cheryl has been extremely helpful and professional during my interactions with her. I actually switched to Tonkin from another dealer in Beaverton due to her assistance. She has helped me several times in the past before her scheduled work shift to ensure I was taken care of.
Great experience. Will do again
Cheryl ensured the work required for my vehicle was completed on time. Warning me in advance that it would be longer than one day, kept me up to date on progress, and updated my service profile at Tonkin Chevrolet.
Maria was exceptional! She made my entire car buying process painless. Knowledgeable, patient and very helpful. Great attitude and winning personality! A+
Honesty and transparency are important to me, so when I got detailed inspection results of my car sent to my phone through text which included video I was pleasantly surprised. I will continue to use Tonkin Chevrolet in Hillsboro for all my car services for the foreseeable future.
I am very happy with the service. Very nice, friendly people. I am happy that I chose Tonkin Chevrolet.
Great service. Videos help me understand what’s being done and what needs future attention. I really like that they work with me and schedule service appointments according to my budget. Very much appreciated. Thank you
(Translated by Google) Hello, I really liked the service I received this time. (Original) Hola me gusto mucho el servicio q recivi esta vez
Thank you Sean at Hillsboro Tonkin Chevy. My beautiful 2004 corvette loved her treatments (new fluids, alignment). We will use your services again when needed.
Maria was very helpful with the car buying experience and made everything as convenient and stress free as possible. Thank you!
James did a great job all the way around. He had all the answers for my questions and I never felt pressured. Got what I wanted for my trade in as well.
Arrived at scheduled time, was greeted pleasantly, advice one how long service would take.
Had a great experience with James buying a new pickup. No pressure at all and he was able to address all of my questions and concerns. I got what I wanted on my trade in and everything went smoothly. He went above and beyond and followed me to Vancouver and back just to get a signature on my title. Would definitely recommend.
The entire staff was patient, thoughtful and really worked to do things that made our purchase as painless and agreeable as possible. Very fast considering the amount if work to ourchase a car. “Jimbo” was very helpful went out of his way. Cameron accepted our low budget questions with real patience. And Maria made sure we got all the stuff we forgot in our trade in!
I had a lot of fun just knowing my new ride was at my finger tips thanks to Maria,and Brian who made it possible.Thank you
I needed a rushed appt. and they worked me in. Service was efficient and fast and they let me use a coupon!
Maria and the crew were great, so helpful and welcoming. Definitely will refer family and friends
