Turns out I was too low in all 4 tires, and when I mentioned that the dashboard light is always on, which makes it hard to know if there really is too little pressure, he got the machine to test the sensors in the tires and confirmed that they are all working. And all of this without charging me at all. Really great to have a neighborhood place like this.

I walked in, knowing that the price to repair a flat might be the cost of a tire in some cases…read more Still, I was recommended by Gil's Auto and wow, I feel this team is a Tire Hospital, doing Tire emergencies all day. Can you believe I came back with to find my flat fixed within hours, and for less than a quarter of the price I expected? On a busy day where there were plenty of cars ahead of me and maintenance work closing the street beside Amherst Tire, they told me it'd be four hours for them to get to my car if they still had the time by the day's end. My expectations must have been so low, because I was more than willing to let my car sit there and slow leak its way to a repair by the morning. They mentioned their Early Bird program, too, if you had to drop your car off before they opened. (There's a mailbox with envelopes to fill out your information in, where you put your key in the envelope and seal it, then drop the envelope into a letter drop in the garage door.) I thought I might need to drop by in the morning. Two hours later, they had managed to get to my car. Two hours later, the slow leak was repaired, just needing a bit of driving to test the patching solution pumped into the car. I had estimated $200, thinking they'd be painfully testing where the leak was, doing some odd patching, removing whatever caused the leak.. I must have had an odd idea of repair since these folk only charged me for maybe an hour's worth of labor to repair the leak. The slow leak is gone, saving me the need of replacing two tires at a time! In a circumstance where they could have easily convinced me I needed more labor and more tires, they were a cost-effective solution, administered within hours on a busy day, and surprised me with how trustworthy they were. I hope you have a similar experience if you go, I am glad I was recommended here.

I said you didn't even diagnose what was wrong with tire, you just automatically went to get money out of me. I said there is only one place I can get an honest opinion and that is Duffy Tire. They are Northampton's first tire company established over 50 years ago before the big chains came in with there slick advertising to lure you in with there low prices. Well the old saying still stands ,you get what you pay for.Jim Duffy has been working for his father since he was 9 years old.Nobody knows more about tires than Jim Duffy.Jim did a full inspection on the tire and said you must of hit one of those sewer holes raised above the road during construction on Prospect street and popped the seal. I'll take care of that real quick. Tire has been good ever since. I asked what do I owe you, he said nothing, I take care of my long term loyal customers. I'll know you'll be back.It's the free benefits that Jim Duffy gives his customers that in the long term makes him really the lowest price, most honest tire service company in Northampton.So before you jump at the slick gimmicks the others offer, I say go with the best and the Hell with the rest.So after your happy and satisfied please leave a positive Google review for Jim. The more positive reviews he gets the more business he will get. Thank you for your cooperation loyal customers. Thank God for Jim Duffy's Honesty and Integrity and Trustworthiness.

The Monro in Northampton told me my right-front wheel bearing is bad. They went so far as to tell me not to drive it, for safety reasons. Then they quoted me a nearly $500 fix that I couldn't afford. So I've been driving it for almost two weeks utterly petrified that it's going to fall apart at any second. I decided on a second opinion so I brought it to Route 9 Auto. I was seen immediately and the first thing he did was quote me a much more reasonable and affordable price for fixing the wheel bearing. That was awesome. But then, after we brought the car in and put it up, he diagnosed that the wheel bearing is actually fine. I do have some suspension wear I am going to have to deal with, but my wheel isn't about to fall off my car. I did have a sightly bent rim, so he swapped it with a rear tire and the thing rides fine now. And he didn't even charge me. As a woman, I get a lot of bullshit at mechanics. I'm not particularly car-savvy but I'm not stupid, and if you tell me what is wrong with my car I will, in fact, understand you. You're talking about cars, not lapsing into archaic Latin. It's exhausting to have to second-guess every mechanic you talk to. I don't second-guess Route 9 Auto. I know I don't have to. I've always been taken seriously, I've never felt jerked around, and I appreciate having things explained to me in plain language. Most of all, I appreciate the honesty. First stop when things go wrong, from now on.

The man I met told me he had been working there for his family over 20 years, and it's hard to find a better local resource than this for the price of a small tip and your gas. The station was very accessible and neatly kept right before the heart of downtown Amherst. You can pull in from either direction--just know what side of your car has the gas cap! All in all, I would tell international travelers, locals, students, and people of all ages and walks of life to go here. I'm certain they'll make you feel welcome and answer your questions, even in the bitter cold. Again, for full service gas, the price is low so mind to tip your attendant, 10% is a good amount and fits the current era we live in. The days where a single dollar was a good gas station tip were at least 30 years ago. :)
