The Network of Neighborhood Professionals is expanding to Oregon and starting to enroll competent, customer service minded auto repair and auto body shops in the metropolitan Portland area.
 
NARPRO is a unique referral service that helps consumers find reliable auto repair and auto body repair at NARPRO.com. All shops listed on the website have passed NARPRO’s 26 tests of quality, integrity and customer satisfaction ensuring that no matter which shop the consumer selects, they will get experienced, highly competent, honest service.
Dan Dumbauld is the new Affiliate for the state of Oregon. Dumbauld, a shop owner for over 32 years in Phoenix, Ariz., has earned the AAM (Accredited Automotive Manager) designation. Dan has been listed as an honored professional in the Nationwide Register’s Who’s Who in Executives and Businesses and is a past appointed member of the National Car Care Center Advisory Council for Parts Plus.
 
Because his shop has been a NARPRO member since 2006 in Arizona, he has seen first hand the benefits that NARPROcan deliver to the consumer, the shop owner, the industry and the community and is excited to bring this service to the people of Portland Oregon.
 
“We launched NARPRO because we saw a need for reliable, quality auto repair and knew there were a lot of smaller, independent shops who didn’t have the opportunities to promote themselves like the big chains,” said Jay Jennings, NARPRO’s General Manager. “The auto repair industry can always improve its impression on consumers and we believe that by supporting local shops, keeping money in our communities and offering the value of a trusted mechanic is how we will do it.”
