I lived in Boise for many years but moved away 13 years ago. I was passing through town as I made a…read morecross-country move and had a flat tire. I chose Commercial because it was the closest tire store to where I was staying. The service was exemplary. I was greeted with a smile as I told them I wanted a new tire because this tire kept losing air and I assumed it was done. It turned out that it had 3 puncture wounds in it and they repaired all 3 and sent me on my way quickly without any charge! I drove on to Seattle without any issues. I highly recommend Commercial Tire - friendly, competent, quick, fair, trustworthy. Thank you!

I had no idea where to take my truck but started checking Yelp and found Gem State Diesel. I called and talked to Mike who said to bring it on in. After a long tow truck ride I dropped the truck off. They inspired a lot of confidence but couldn't get it done immediately though, which was understandable as it was a big job. Turbo, etc. Mike called me a couple days later and said it was done. I picked it up and it ran great! Fast forward: My luck is I was coming back through Boise area when I developed a fuel leak yesterday. I wasn't too far from GSD so I limped it in there. Steve was able to identify the problem, get it fixed and get me back on the road. If I were local to Treasure Valley Gem State Diesel would be my go to for sure! Five stars for service, friendliness, and quality.

Thought had to be coincidence until my uncle took his in and the same things started happening. Fox truck, go home- something else breaks/leaks days later. And they are big repairs. Final red flag. Took truck in for a service light. Told us we did something wrong- charged us for labor to look at it. Shortly after, light comes on again. Take it back in and told it "XYZ 'needed to be replaced". Cost was $2000+. Call around- take it to a reputable place that also specializes in Diesel. XYZ was not even broken or needing replaced. Actual cost for the service light issue was $451. Later find out, the item Gem State wanted to replace was just replaced BY THEM year and half ago! Something is fishy with this company. You'll be dumping thousands before you know it. Steer clear.

Thank you Tri County Towing for an exceptional job of a difficult task. Highly recommend!!!

I was traveling through Mountain Home area from Louisiana when a fuel line started leaking on my…read more2012 F250 diesel a little before 8 am. I was able to drive it to this shop. A mechanic on duty informed me that he had a used line on on an old motor. He pulled the line off of the old motor but said his boss wouldn't let him work on my truck until he finished a "locals" truck and then that would be a maybe so. I asked if I could buy the line and change it myself. The owner then stated that he wasn't sure he wanted to sell the line. I called the FORD dealership and they got me one out of Boise by 2:30 in the afternoon. I ended up changing it myself in a parking lot but the owner could have saved me a lot of time and could have replaced the line with a new one the next day knowing he wouldn't need that line. If FORD hadn't had the means to get me a line in 6 1/2 hours, this man would have had me sit for an extra day because he didn't want to sell someone 1,800 miles from home a used fuel line. The mechanic and receptionist are great and really tried to help.

For the most part, I have had decent luck going to other local mechanics in the area, with a couple of glaring exceptions, but decided to check out Auto Surgeon since it's pretty close to where I live. And now, I won't go anywhere else. Kevin, the owner, is a fantastic guy who has always done right by me. He's an excellent mechanic who has worked on at least four of my vehicles over the years. The other employees who work there are also knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. You would be foolish not to give Auto Surgeon a try the next time you need your vehicle repaired.

Has a mailing address of "1650 W Targee St., Boise ID" which is only a PO Box, and uses stock images for 'Ingrid' who will be the contact for the stock text messages they send. You can see the entire text conversation we had in the photos I've submitted so that you can see evidence to back what I've said and also that what actually occured this fraudulent business differences significantly from what they will claim in their response. Horrible customer service only through texting and their technician never arrived nor contacted me directly despite several requests from me for the technician to contact me so that I could coordinate linking up with them at a large truck-stop. I sent in a Google Maps pin drop to my exact location. Once I was notified their technician had arrived I tried to establish contact with them through their text dialogue and only received automated messages in return and a video of their technician driving around the wrong truck-stop. I notified them their technician was at the wrong location and heard nothing back from 'Ingrid' their automated manager. Please see my attached photos of the entire conversation as proof of their lack of response and refusal to refund my money. Additionally I was advised to choose 'diagnostic' when I asked for a power steering line repair, and then after I paid was told they would only perform a diagnostic and something about conforming to state laws. This is entirely unacceptable as no state law prohibits them from repairing a power steering line as originally requested. Use this business at your own risk and do not trust what they say in their response. They were NOT at the correct location and never attempted to contact me to link-up. Trust the other negative reviews. $238.50 for a 'diagnostic' that they never performed and still charged me for. I used another mobile mechanic, Richard Wilson, with Elite Mobile Auto Repair who actually arrived and repaired my power steering line for $154 and even drove himself to three different auto parts stores to locate the correct parts. This is good service, not what 'Mobile Tech Auto Repair' does with stealing money for nothing. I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and applicable licensing authorities and they received no response from the owners as this is a shell business set up under several different names and addresses. No business should be able to outright steal money for services willfully not performed.

I called the number and Chevy is the name of the person who I spoke with. Made an appointment for today at 4pm and he was at my place on time. What I liked about this is that the mechanic comes to you its a $90 dollar to diagnose the problem and if and gives you a prices of how much it's gonna cost and if you choose to go with him he applies the $90 dollars to the full price. I asked him to look at my other vehicle and he fixed everything on it and changed my battery. Chevy is super nice and he enjoys working on cars. He was fixing my cars while I made dinner love that instead of waiting in a lobby or having to get a rental or a ride home to have someone work on my car. 1.5 hours of labor done at home.
