Awesome place! 2005 Ford Expedition Diagnosed, work done & available to pick up in much less time & cost than was predicted! This is not the first time we’ve had an auto worked on there.

The process of obtaining my driver’s license was quick and easy. I am experiencing issues receiving my vehicle title at this point. It has been 16 weeks and I’ve not received my title. I have called the main office in Olympia, who cannot give me any updated information other than my application is “still processing.” They provided two different phone numbers to call (both apparently are direct lines to the Kennewick office that is processing the title). After ~3-4 rings, both numbers go to a dial tone. There is no option to leave a message and I cannot get in contact with anyone at the office to discuss the matter. When submitting the application in June, I was quoted “6-8 weeks” to receive the title; I know the DOL website says 8-10 weeks, so I was not expecting the 6-8 week turnaround. I tried to give a little grace with COVID, but at this point I’m disappointed about how long this is taking and the lack of communication.

I like to order my tabs online through Washington's DoL website and then arrange pickup here, so I don't have to worry about missing them in the mail. Pick up in the office usually takes less than 10 minutes but I go early as it can get crowded. They've now added a drive through window which makes it even easier, especially with the need for social distancing. I did my renewal online and picked it up the next day in just a couple minutes after showing my ID. Edit: If you do it online in the morning like I do, you can pick it up that afternoon. If you approach from the west, turning left across Clearwater Blvd is a pain given the traffic. Get on W. Deschutes off of N. Morain and go in the back.
