The Bridge is open and flowing freely!
Just a reminder that although the Sellwood Bridge was closed Nov 19-21, it’s open again and traffic is flowing freely. They even polished up the turn onto Tenino, so that’s a little easier coming from the east than it has been. If you’re thinking about coming to see us, don’t let the construction itself stop you. Come on down!
Holiday savings opportunities
How’s the holiday shopping going? Yeah, the same with us. If you’re counting those pennies for Christmas gifts, need a last minute gift, or have a looming auto repair bill that’s crowding your Christmas budget, then our TWO current specials will be particularly interesting…

Our Referral Reward program…
The “Season of Giving” may be here, but for our clients the Season started back in March. Why? Because since then, every time a new client gives an existing client’s name as a referral source we’ve made a donation to the non-profit group of their choice (up to $50). Since March 114 of our clients have donated $4,493 to the charities and groups they care about! Five more groups received checks this month (so far), including the fourth check to Artichole Music! These groups also become eligible for quarterly and yearly awards like this month’s quarterly award winner. We hope you’ll take this chance to share Tom Dwyer Automotive with someone you know, and share a little money with a group that can use it. And, since it IS the Season of Giving, why not take a few minutes to look over this months’ groups and see if there is one that could use YOUR help?
Here are the groups who benefitted in December…
Artichoke Community Music (4th award)
And our THIRD Quarterly winner is…
Madison High School
(from Wikipedia) James Madison High School, named after the fourth US President and co-author of the Constitution, was founded in 1957. It serves neighborhood students and many transfer students grades 9-12. James Madison High School offers a full range of college preparatory core content classes as well as unique elective options in the areas of Mathematics, Performing & Visual Arts, Science, Social Science, and World Languages. Students may challenge themselves by enrolling in Advanced Placement and Dual Credit courses. Dual Credit courses are taught by Madison faculty who work in partnership with Portland Community College. Two movies have been filmed at the school: Paranoid Park (2007) and Twilight (2008). Notable alumni include Paul De Muniz, the first Hispanic Chief Justice of the Oregon Supreme Court, and Major League Baseball players Rick Wise, Kent Bottenfield, and Rob Dressler.
Madison joins Janus Youth Programs and Artichoke Music, our first two quarterly awardees. Just like Janus and Artichoke, Madison High School will receive a check for $250 and be in the running for our yearly award as well. One reason we chose Madison High School, aside from the fact that they deserve it, is that we want you to be aware that ANY non-profit group is eligible for our Referral Reward Program. If you want to participate, we will gladly make a contribution to support the school of your choice!

Latest Automotive Recalls
Automobiles are just like any other product; occasional flaws in manufacture or design can cause problems once they leave the factory. When an issue is identified the manufacturers and government work hard to bring the vehicles back in for refit or repair, but not all recalls make the front pages. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration maintains a constantly updated list of recalls from every manufacturer. The last month’s recalls are below, but clicking the button at right will take you to the full list at the NHTSA website.
