EDIT: Norris Automotive issued an apology on a review, after reading other reviews I do believe…read morethis to be a genuine mistake from them. I brought my car to Norris Automotive because it was local and my vehicle had to be towed. From the very beginning, this turned into one of the most frustrating and dishonest service experiences I have ever had. I was told my car was flooded, needed a tune up and a new battery. The estimate was already steep at $600, but since the car was already there, I agreed, thinking at least the work would be done properly. Then I get the call that car is ready, the total is now $705. Annoying, but I stayed hopeful that the extra cost meant quality work. I was wrong. I pick up my car, pay the bill, and the receipt says I was charged for new spark plugs and a new battery. That's it?? When I get home, I pop the hood and to my surprise, the same corroded battery is still sitting there. On top of that, my engine cover is now cracked, something that was not damaged when I dropped the car off. I call immediately. Ryan puts me on hold and comes back with, "If you come back tomorrow, we will put the battery in." No explanation. No apology. No accountability for charging me for work that clearly was not done. At that moment, all trust was gone. I would not trust this shop to put air in my tires. I told them I wanted my battery money refunded. Ryan says I have to bring my card back in. On the drive over, I notice I was also charged an environmental and supply fee, something I would understand if they had actually replaced and disposed of a battery, but they did not. When I walk in, Ryan tries to play it casual and asks for my card. I ask him directly, "So I am paying $500 for four spark plugs?" He looks me dead in the eye and says yes, $110 for the spark plugs and $290 for labor. Oh, you mean the same labor that was supposed to include installing the battery they never installed. Absolutely unbelievable. I also ask about the environmental fee, he only offers half back.. Wtf? This place charged me for work that was not done, damaged my vehicle, raised the price after the fact, and offered no reasoning other than it was "an honest mistake". So you admit you have no quality control? If you value your money, your car, and your peace of mind, do not go here. Receipts of initial battery charge and refund attached. Stay clear.

A retiree with no knowledge of local tire/automotive shops in Burlington, I turned to the internet for guidance. SO grateful I read reviews & selected Black's! As soon as I arrived & their staff realized I didn't require same-day service, they checked & discovered they could fix my problem for about half the price if I could wait a day. The graciously drove me home to my retirement community & by mid-day the next day, they called to say the repair was complete :-). They delivered it to my door (at no additional charge!) within 15 minutes. What phenomenal service: no taking advantage of an "old lady's" naïveté, staff was polite, thoughtful, knowledgeable, & went above & beyond to accommodate my need. Super reasonable charge! Will definitely use them again & recommend it to anyone else. read more

I love Black Tire.The first thing I want to say about them is that they are are very honest. They will let you know if you need something like a new air filter. Thank you Black Tire for replacing my air filter because my car is definitely running smoother and I didn't know I needed one. The price of my oil change and tire rotation was a great price also. And I got it all in a very timely manner. Thanks again read more

That sound a bit high so I checked the price from several parts stores and the part was much less than $200.00.

I then took the car in last week to do the work. Got the car back and the problem is STILL there..... and suddenly my car drives heavier, like a truck and is heavy on gas. It was not like this before. I took it back today .... and the guy says....oh, seems they changed the routers and break pads on the BACK wheels in stead of the FRONT WHEELS, as I was quoted for. And..... politely informed me that they didn't cause the fact that my car handles completely different since I left them last week. So.... I asked him, seeing that you DID NOT change the routers and break pads in the front, as they were supposed to and admits that they did it in the back in stead of the front wheels. I told them to undo what ever they did and give me my money back so I can take my car to a different place. To which is I was given a snide patronizing NO. And apparently because his poor ego cant handle a WOMAN disagreeing with him about her car, and my voice was on the same loudness as his, I was asked to leave. What a load of BS. I will never recommend this place to anyone! They have no honor! $600 and 5 hours of my life GONE and nothing to show for it except MORE issues!
