I had an amazing and wonderful experience at Garden Automotive and Tire. Words can not explain how grateful I am for Mike and his team over there. I had a lot of problems with my vehicle due to the previous auto repair shop I went to, but thanks to Garden Automotive my car is running like its brand new again. Their prices are low and they do not overprice you at all. Garden Automotive will now be the only automotive repair shop I will go!

Took my wife's car for an oil change. Mind you she drove the car to work earlier that day and I drove it to the shop for the oil change with no issues. I get the car back and they say "something is wrong with the brakes, you should come back to get it taken care of". The next morning my wife goes to work and when she taps on the brakes the car shakes violently out of no where! Now I'm not a mechanic so i cannot prove they tampered with something to make me come back. However my wife and I know this came out of no where after they conveniently wanted me to pay to get it worked on. You always hear about all these shady tactics mechanics use. I'm taking my business elsewhere. Beware!

They changed a part that didn't need to be changed, which costed $400, then after I came back with the same issue I originally had they wanted to charge $500 more to fix it. I couldn't afford it so the receptionist offered to look for the part at a junkyard so it would be cheaper. I agreed but he never called me back. It has been 4 weeks. The business does well so they obviously didn't care enough about one disappointed customer whose car still wasn't reliable after spending $400 there. He described that finding what was wrong in my car was like finding a 'needle in a haystack'. I don't know much about auto mechanics, so I cannot argue that perspective, however, I can never trust a professional who speaks about his profession as a matter of luck. By the way, the first part which they bought for $266 would have been $90 if I would've gotten it myself, but of course they told me they couldn't accept a part brought by myself because they wouldn't be able to guarantee it. My car had the same problem after they 'repaired' it and they didn't guarantee that either, they looked at the car again and told me another repair was needed was I would receive no refund from the first, unnecessary repair. If you need a basic oil change, this place is great, but if you are not sure what is wrong with your car, be careful and do your research.

Nice place to get oil changed. Friendly folks and freindly service. Always do a good job
