Our pups & daughter couldn't take it, and it was late so had to stay at a hotel. Next day I took it to a place who let us know we needed a new AC Compressor, but they didn't have it in stock. They recommended a nearby dealership who when I went to it they told me they could do the job and had my car all day. End of the day said they couldn't do it. I was in full panic mode and called tire mountain & auto on a whim and explained my situation. I knew they were closed weekends per their website & also it was so late in the day. I was listened to, and told definitely Monday it could be done. But we had to get home. I thanked them & went to find cooling mats & portable fans to try to make the drive. A couple hours later my phone rang and it was the owner I had spoken to earlier. He called to let me know he had 2 guys willing to come in on their day off, so they could get us on the road. AMAZING owners, service, and boy is our car cold! They didn't jack up the price, which they easily could have. Forever grateful for the kindness of a stranger. I'd 1000% recommend this business! Good people! Thank you, Tire Mountain Tire & Automotive!

Neither of which is true, this place is trying to scam people into paying for services not needed. I would highly suggest getting a second opinion on anything they tell you or simply not using this business at all.

They were the only place that would replace my steering rack besides the overpriced dealer. I won't name names, but the previous mechanic I went to didn't want to do it because they could only get a dealer part and I guess they were more interested in marking up aftermarket stuff than doing the repair. Their loss. I get my oil changes here now too. I'll drive to the other side of town because the service here is actually professional and good, and not lackadaisical like the previous place up north that's closer to me.

It's rare to find a shop this responsive, especially last-minute, and with such great service.

I'm giving it a slightly higher review because the lady at the front was very kind…read more My car broke down last week and I had to get it towed to a shop to find out what was wrong with it. Once it was at the shop I figured I'd just "support a small business" and let them do the work. I get a call that they believe the issue is the spark plugs. The diagnostic isn't free (it's literally just plugging in a reader for the warning light) but they say they'll deduct some of it. I've worked on my car before and I have an idea of how long it took in my old cars because I did the work myself. But I didn't have a spot to do it, tools, or honestly...the time and headspace. They come back with $500 for diagnostic, parts, labor. Now I'm a little annoyed because I know spark plugs aren't that expensive, but I thought "maybe because it's a newer car it's harder to get to those parts so it'll take a bit longer". I agreed and let them do it. This is where it gets more annoying. They come back and tell me the $500 spark plug job didn't fix the issue and I need my ignition coils fixed and that brings the total to $1400! Now I'm actually mad. I said no thank you, I can figure something out later but I don't have $1400 lying around, the week of Thanksgiving, right before Christmas. The front desk lady is apologetic, she understands and tells me she'll call me back. She knocks $50 off the job I get my car back. Look...to be fair, my car needed a tune up 50,000 miles ago, and those spark plugs were dead (good job Mazda on making good parts). But $1400 was nuts. THEN I looked up how to change the ignition coils on my car and I was overtaken by rage. The spark plugs would've taken them no more than 30 minutes. The most expensive spark plugs at any auto parts place would've cost me $100 tops, they charged me $160. The ignition coils are expensive, and at an auto place would've cost $600. I paid $300 for all 4 and they arrived in 2 days. The work...to change the ignition coils took 10 MINUTES, 10 MINUTES. That means that this shop charged $164 for 20 minutes of work on the spark plugs. Then wanted to charge an additional $300 for 15 minutes of work on the ignition coils. Which BTW, if they had done all of the work at the same time would have been 30 minutes tops because you have to remove the ignition coils to get to the spark plugs.
