🫤 I was able to get new winter tires same day, which I wanted- to their credit. And the employees here are polite. However, pricing is opaque. I got a quote for four tires at 1035, but ended up being charged 1280. They don't disclose sneaky environmental fees, recycling fees and service fees, then tax... People often mention service, tires, friendly, location, years, good, work, great,

  • 5/5 Lori Pollard (Jazz B. 1 year ago on Google
    Quick and friendly. Didn't try to upsell, did the job that was needed and did it very well. Will definitely be going back for any future maintenance needs **Updated original rating from 4 to 5 stars: We have been using this location for years now for all our vehicles, all types of maintenance and repair. I'm constantly recommending this location, even to friends and family in the east end of the city, because of their excellent work, honesty and friendly service.

    These guys have taken care of my car for years and never failed me. Always courteous and friendly, and usually finding a solution, no matter how baffling the problem. The bills are always fairly calculated and they are careful to explain everything associated with the quote. Staff are all helpful and the premises are clean and comfortable if you have to wait. There is a nice bakery next door where you can grab a coffee and a snack if you have to hang around. Bus stop is right there for easy travel if you are leaving your car for tire change etc. Thanks AG&R 859 for your service over the years.

    I was able to get new winter tires same day, which I wanted- to their credit. And the employees here are polite. However, pricing is opaque. I got a quote for four tires at 1035, but ended up being charged 1280. They don't disclose sneaky environmental fees, recycling fees and service fees, then taxes on top. I was charged labour but only needed the tires put on my rims, which I think should be the cost to them doing business. You will get quality tires and decent service here if youre vigilant. They hosed me yesterday and because of the underhanded sales strategy they are trained to employ I dont think I'll return.

    Went in and got an estimate for several repairs on my pickup truck dealt with Vince and received an estimate for tires he provided about 5 different options just for the tires and multiple maintenance services while I waited, fast and knowledgeable service dropped my vehicle off for the repairs and everything was completed same day plus they came under the original quote. As a service manager for another repair center I was happy with the quality of service and my vehicles condition when returned will continue to use this location.

    My experience was very good once again. I use the centre on Kipling and I find the team responsive and respectful. Vince is a joy to work with.

  • 1/5 Trevor S. 1 year ago on Google
    Not impressed, had a leaky tire, they resealed it to the rim, had to go back the next day as it leaked again. It was due to a cracked rim... Very easy to see the crack in the rim... Shouldn't have been charged PLUS they took my custom valve plug and on my second visit they said they put it back on but they gave me a generic valve plug... Charged twice, ripped off twice. I highly recommend the management take this message seriously and clean up their act. MY APOLOGIES, this is for the location ob Dundas St. In Mississauga....

    The Green and Ross team provided great personalized service and performed the work capably and on time. Their follow up on purchasing the correct winter tires for both our new vehicles and overall friendliness at the dealership totally measured up to expectations. We will continue to be loyal customers.

    Highly professional, punctual, and a pleasure to deal with. My first visit here and definitely will not be my last. You just feel they are genuine and care for their clients, and not looking for a cash grab!!

    I highly recommend this place. No, I don't know the owner but we've been going here for over a decade and they are incredibly helpful, well-priced, honest and do great work. They've fixed all kinds of things on our cars over the years and they are easy to deal with.

    I have been an on-going customer at the Kipling location for several years. The front desk team are professional and knowledgeable and always pleasant to deal with. My go to guy there is Dui and has always looked after my vehicles needs in a timely, affordable manner. I have recommended this location to friends and family and they have all been well taken care of. Thanks again to your great mechanics and overall customer service. Robert. B

    I had a rumbling sound, possibly muffler. Went in without an appointment. Luckily they had a hoist open and were able to look at it right away. Turned out it was an exhaust issue. I was in and out in about 2 hours. Best possible resolution.

  • 5/5 Dale C. 1 year ago on Google
    I went to this location just before a road trip to Michigan. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, efficient, and offered good prices. we worked through different scenarios for my tires and I really appreciated their insight. I ended up deciding to get a set of snow tires installed. I had my daughter with me so they were mindful not to keep us waiting too long. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone, especially if you need new snow tires!

  • 5/5 Jayne M. 1 year ago on Google
    Seasonal tire change and storage. The guys are always really friendly and polite. Easy to drop off my car and they had it ready for me really fast!

  • 5/5 Carsten A. 1 year ago on Google
    Went in to have summer tires off and winters put on…Their system was off line but Peter was still able to work me in prior to scheduled time and deal with payment post system coming back on line over the phone. Awesome service! Thanks Peter!

  • 5/5 Steve R. 1 year ago on Google
    I drive for a living. Important to have good maintenance on car that is treated rough. Recommend these guys - reliable and good work.

  • 5/5 Roberta B. 1 year ago on Google
    I chose this location because of the great reviews and I'm so glad I did. Peter was friendly and took the time to explain the issue and future maintenance options for my car. I highly recommend this location and I will be returning.

  • 5/5 Marissa S. 1 year ago on Google
    These mechanics are so helpful and friendly! Unfortunately my run flat tire practically bursted on a near by road and me having no previous car knowledge, didn’t realize my car’s tires are not common to find.. These mechanics worked so hard they even went above and beyond and offered to help me pick up tires from a near by Canadian tire. I could not thank them enough!

  • 5/5 Scott H. 4 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    I was introduced to Peter and the team about 3 years ago by a friend. I can honestly say I no longer worry about things going wrong on the car, or it being serviced. This group is so trust worthy and conscious about what is the best solution for the right price. They diagnose the issue and then go looking for ways to help you solve the problem. I wish I had met them years ago as you know they have your back when you go in there for any reason. You can sleep at night knowing this team is looking after your vehicle.

    My wife and I have dealt with this shop for at least 12 years and we have been extremely satisfied with their service. The staff have always been very helpful and friendly. I would not go to any other shop for my used vehicles Thanks very much for your great service

    Had my low km. 2008 Escape in due to an extremely rough ride. Otherwise in very good condition. Andrew was very thorough in his inspection and test drives and explained the issues with the suspension system thoroughly. My old car is now back on the road with new struts and shocks. Thank you. ~ Wil

😠 I purchased 4 bags of water softener salt on Saturday, May 7, 2022 at 3:49pm. When I drove up to the in-store pick up area the closest available spot was blocked off by a cone so I parked at the next closest spot. The attendant (Larry) was extremely rude and refused to bring my order to my car and...

😠 Went in today due to battery failure on my car. Motomaster Battery was purchased in March of 2021. They tested it and sure the battery failed. They asked for warranty papers and I didn't have it.
