They saw me right away, spent 40 minutes testing the tire, and determined that the problem was that the tire simply had reached the end of its tread life, rather than needing a leak repair.

I stopped by Cliff's Automotive to ask about replacing the thermostat on my 2017 Jeep Wrangler. As…read morea first-time customer, I was hoping to get a general idea of the cost for the repair, including an estimate for parts and labor. Unfortunately, my experience wasn't very welcoming. I was told they don't provide quotes unless the vehicle is in the shop by appointment. When I explained that my Jeep was already there, I was still met with a dismissive response. I also asked for a rough estimate on the cost of the parts and was told they couldn't provide any information, only that labor was around $150 per hour. I completely understand that every repair is different and that an exact quote may require an inspection. My disappointment wasn't with their policy, it was with the way I was treated. The interaction felt abrupt, unfriendly, and lacking the customer service I would expect from a business trying to earn a new customer's trust. A little kindness and professionalism go a long way. Even if the answer couldn't change, a more courteous approach would have left a much better impression.

New Garfield Auto performed a complete brake job on our van…read more1.5 years ago (21,000 miles). They replaced calipers with rebuilt ones (why not replace with new calipers??)in which one caliper failed and caused premature wear on the pads and rotors. The pads were worn down to the metal forcing us to need another complete brake job on the rear brakes again (in 21,000 miles). They also did not properly run the brake lines or bleed them correctly. We attempted to work with Garfield Auto to come to a resolution but they were not interested in helping us. Very poor customer service and poor workmanship. I highly advise avoiding this Auto service center.

My wife took our Jeep Commander in for some front end work recently. They did do a good job on the…read morerepairs and it was relatively inexpensive, but it was their putting everything back together that has me extremely t'd off right now. When the tires were put back on the lug nuts were tightened down so tight that they were nearly impossible to get off. Actually, one is so stripped I'm going to have to take it to A DIFFERENT SHOP to get removed. They obviously used the air ratchet to torque the bolts down. How do I know this, because I'm a 215lb adult male who had to stand on the freaking lug wrench and bounce to get them to turn ever so slightly. I shouldn't have to stand on the freaking lug wrench and bounce to get them to turn, I should simply be able to use arm muscle and body weight alone to remove the lug nut. What if my wife were had a flat in the middle of a no-cell reception area and had to remove the tire herself? She wouldn't have been able to that's for damned sure, and she should be able. Over tightening lug nuts can strip bolts, weaken the threads which can cause the wheel to come loose or off, or warp the brake rotor causing brake failure. All of which I'm sure Garfield Auto Center knows, but I mean we were a customer right, maybe what they do know they think that we don't know, maybe they think we will take our vehicle in for them to fix when this happens. I won't. My wife won't, again. And I'm hoping this review will cause you to think before you go to them. Maybe I should give them the benefit of the doubt, maybe it was a new guy working on the Jeep, maybe they were in a hurry to get to lunch or end their day and just used the air gun. Well, maybe my wife was taking my children to Grand Rapids for the day and lost a tire on US131 doing 75MPH. My families safety is more important than their excuse. I won't be back, and I won't recommend them to my friends, family, coworkers, or even my worst enemies.

He is on the higher side of the scale for cost of repairs, but for very good reason! This is the only shop, that I'm aware of, has a 3 yr. 36 000 mile warranty on repairs! Also, he uses high quality parts! Mike is great at taking care of his customers, and I love that about him! However, I worked there as a Mechanic back in 2023. While he's great with customers, not so much with employees as to why I give him 4 stars. He tends to bring in his issues and dump it on us employees, and does not do well under stress or pressure because as an employee, we bare the brunt of his negativity. However, I'm partially at fault as I did not sit down with Mike, in an attempt to resolve these things. At the end of the day, I know Mike has a good heart and truly cares for people! I would encourage you to check this place out! He has a very low "come back rate" and I still send people his way.

Something you don't see nearly enough in auto repair. (Or really anywhere anymore) We were in a tough financial spot and had to leave our car there for a bit while we figured things out. Not once did Kenny rush us, pressure us, or make us feel like a burden. Every single interaction was calm, courteous, and understanding. He never made us feel embarrassed about our circumstances. That level of compassion is rare, and it meant more than he knows. If you're looking for honest, human-centered service...the kind where you walk in stressed and walk out breathing easier. Rev Auto is the place, and Kenny is the reason. Traverse City is lucky to have people like him in this industry. Highly, highly recommend.
