My aunt has been coming here for a good 12 years or so and had recently passed away so her 2014 rav4 needed an oil change at 31k miles as it's been sitting for over a year. I also checked with reddit and many people suggested Vander Hamm instead of hanlee toyota or Aaa, as someone sometimes in the car industry I'm picky about the Quality of work and a professional transaction. I called them from Torrance CA a week ahead & arranged to show up 4/24 and I ended up coming an hour early and they squeezed me in, I dealt with Blane White and he was professional on the phone and in person, the car was dropped off around 9am and finished at 1030am exactly as promised, and they gave it a good once over and quoted me on replacing the Tpms sensors for 110$ each, which is reasonable, as the dealer wanted 250-300 each sensor, so I will definitely consider it. Great place super professional and honest and there's no drama. Highly recommend, and make an appointment as it's a busy place. read more

Excellent, family-owned, full service garage, including tires naturally. Honest, polite, good communicators, plus they sometimes have farm-fresh eggs for sale. Highly recommend. read more

Thank you Vander Hamm! Straight forward drop off and pick up, accurate quote, fair prices, and great service. Came in thinking I may need new brakes and an alignment. However, they were honest and let me know my brakes were actually fine and the problem was with my alignment as well as an additional adjustment. I felt $130 for the alignment + $100 for the additional adjustment was very fair, especially in this economy. As soon as I picked it up I noticed a drastic positive difference in steering, handling and braking! I will definitely come back in the future. read more

Service has been high quality, reliable and responsive! They are also incredibly fast with getting inventory

Over the last year and a half we have started going to Vanderham's tire center of Davis for tires on our: truck, travel, trailer, and boat. We have found them to be great communicators and they do amazing work! When you drop off your vehicle with them you know 100% that they are going to do a great job and that they stand behind their work. You also know that you're getting a good price, done in a timely manner and with fantastic quality. They also explain things very clearly and patiently! I am very grateful for the customer service and quality I have received at Vanderbilt Hamm Tire Center of Davis. We will be going back for many years to come! read more

Vander Hamm Tires are great. They perform almost every automotive maintenance service, (including oil changes), although they specialize in tires. They have just about any brand/type of tire you could need, including an excellent selection of winter-weather tires that are critical for safe Tahoe ski trips. Excellent service--they listen to your concerns and help address them, never pushing a sale for the sake of money. I have, on multiple occasions, come in with a problem before they politely direct me to another shop because they can either do it better or faster. Their options are great and they will set you up with the right tire for your use case, never upselling a more expensive product if they don't think it's necessary. I used to get all my tires from Costco, but with these guys local here in Davis and providing free rotations, Vander Hamm is where the rubber meets the road for me! (Please don't judge me for that "dad joke".) read more

I cannot speak highly enough of Vander Hamm. My family had a series of unfortunate events beginning with our vehicle breaking down south of Davis on our way to Southern California. Since we are not from the Bay Area, we did not know where to take it in. Not to mention, we were 100's of miles away from our local shop and with no feasible way to tow it so far. I am just so very grateful for all the previous Yelpers who posted about their positive experience with Vander Hamm. True to others' experience, we explained to Rich and Doug about our unique situation. Having understand our situation, Rich and Doug masterfully worked together to expedite a repair that would have taken several days into a few hours. It honestly brought tears to my eyes when I got a call saying our vehicle was ready for pick up. I am once again reminded how important it is to find not only honest and professional people for auto repairs, but who are also kind and compassionate. If I ever needed auto repair service in the Davis area, I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend Vander Hamm. read more

Vander Hamm's is our GoTo tire store. We had a slow leak in our right front tire that other shops simply filled with air. Vander Hamm found the screw in the sidewalk and replaced the tire on the same day. And they cheerfully replaced our windshield wiper blades as we were checking out. Friendly, knowledgeable top notch service! Highly recommended. read more

Emergency tires needed on a Friday passing through town on our trailer. They helped us fast, so kind, so we could continue our vacation! Thanks guys! read more

The place does good service. They can be quite busy, so you need to plan ahead. We've been taking our two cars here for some time, as the shop is somewhat within walking distance and doesn't try to upsell us anything. All in all a solid shop. Taking my car in for an oil change again soon. read more

Today my car tires light came on w/ low tire pressure. It was 2 p.m. The Fine Female Mechanic found the metal piece that created the tire pressure leak & repairec. I requested a tire rotation (was overdue). In and out $85. Safe and treated kindly rather than venture down to Dixon. Sometimes cost & treatment trumps time & rush hour. read more

Love this place. Had to swing by them for free air for my tires a few times. No questions asked and so friendly. Felt the need to give them real business when I needed new tires. Bought tire warranties that they offer, $15 or something like that for unlimited patches and new tire if something happens. Love the piece of mind. They can always fit me in and have stock (I have weird tires on an EV) whenever I needed them. Few years over due on this review. Thanks guys! read more

I came here because my tires had low pressure, and I was a bit nervous because my dad usually takes my car for stuff like this. They were very helpful and checked my car and filled the tires with air for free. I will definitely be back if my car has any other problems. :) read more

I need to start driving my car more because Vander Hamm has again purged their records and couldn't find me in their system. Not only that, they had no record of the appointment I had made the week before. Oh well, I still trust them and hope that they will retain their customer records longer. My last visit was in 2017. read more

Great and honest services! I went to another car repair shop for a flat tire. I was told my two rear tires are so badly wore out and need replacement for $800. I drove to Vanderbilt hamm tire center. They repaired flat tire for $45 and told me that two rear tires are hood for another 4-5 years. Than you Vander Hamm Tire Center! read more

Replaced all four tires, Pirelli, at a cost of almost $1,500.00. At the very least they could've cleaned up the goop and shined the outside of the tires. They told me it would come off when I washed the car...nope. To really be unprofessional they left tire goop on my steering wheel. No, I won't go back. read more

I needed to replace my tires this year. I used to get them at Costco, but they no longer carry my size. Fortunately, Vander Hamm had a selection of tires in my size and were able to give an appointment right away! And today they filled my tires for free, which was much appreciated! Friendly, fast and professional service! read more

DO NOT GO HERE! I went in, filled out a credit application (credit score hovers around 800) and the guy SPENT AN HOUR TRYING TO PROCESS IT! His LAME AF "excuse" was "We don't process many credit applications here" - Yeah...BS!!! 90% of their purchases are ON CREDIT!!! I went to ask the manager gal hiding in the office if she could help the guy process my application because, "it was taking an UNACCEPTABLE AMOUNT OF TIME to process. She rudely replied, "I don't know how to process credit, we don't do a lot of those here" (LIE!) SHE THEN LEFT THE STORE...WITH HALF A DOZEN PEOPLE IN LINE waiting for the idiot to figure out how to enter data to process a credit application...SO I LEFT TOO! read more

I took my 05 Nissan Xterra to Vanderhamm because there was a grinding noise coming from the front end whenever I took sharp corners. The mechanic, Collin, noticed my front hubs had some play and had damaged my rotors. We replaced both, but the grinding noise did not disappear, so I took it back, and Collin realized it was actually just the traction control motor kicking in. My shocks were so worn out (190k miles) that when taking sharp turns, the wheels couldn't track properly and they would trigger the TC. I expressed to Danny, the manager, that I felt kinda sour about spending all that money without fixing the issue. He comped the whole invoice--parts and labor. There was no hassle, no arguing, they just printed me a check and sent me on my way. A case could be made that I needed those hubs and rotors anyways, but Danny didn't split hairs, he just made sure we could both feel good about the transaction, and I really respect the way he handled the situation. Collin also drives an Xterra, and he let me pick his brain about specific repairs/upgrades I might want to make in the future. Blaine at the front desk was super friendly and helpful throughout this whole process, and while I was in the shop, I got to see him treat other customers the same way. He was jovial, respectful, and knowledgeable. My experience with Vanderhamm throughout this process has been so good I decided to replace some other worn-out front-end parts and get new tires there as well. My Xterra drives whisper quiet and buttery smooth now! Moving forward, I will be going there for rotations and maintenance and I cannot recommend them enough! read more

Trustworthy and friendly. They change my oil, rotate tires, replaced brake pads. Book big jobs ahead of time brcausr they can get busy.

Got a new set of tires same day; they got my specs and had them brought out from their warehouse. This was a nice surprise - I'd thought I would have to wait days for them to arrive before install. Cost was competitive with what I would have spent at Costco; I was willing to spend a little more considering the same day install. Bonus for them getting me back to my home and picking me up later in the day as well as the outstanding organic eggs they sell from a little fridge in the showroom. They also did a great job with aligning the tires after install. The place was pretty busy when I dropped off and picked up; after my great experience I understand why. read more

Blaine is awesome! From my experience and the many reviews here, it's safe to say he's always looking out for what's best for his customers. Super kind and knows exactly what he's doing. read more

I've been to this shop a few times and they are always able to help me competently with clear explanations of the problems and causes thereof. Tire work like patching, balancing with no pressure to add purchases or other services. They also sell batteries and install them if you like. read more

Needed new tires for my husband's Chevy Silverado. Better price AND quality than other places around. Saw referral on Nextdoor, glad we went with it! read more

Honestly I have no idea how this place gets five stars reviews on Yelp. It took them three times to fix an issue on my car. I took my car for an inspection the first time and they said everything looked good. The day I took the car home it started making noise. I took the car back again and this time suddenly there is an issue and i was quoted a thousand bucks for. So I told myself ok it's my bad luck and the guy probably missed it the first time he checked the car. I paid up and they "fixed" the car. I drive the car home and everything seems good. Until I took the car on the highway a day later and guess what the noise appeared again. I had to take the car back a third time. The guy inspected it and said there was another issue. They were "kind enough" to not charge me anything this time because maybe they were embarrassed as well that their mechanic takes three tries to fix an issue? TLDR: had to visit the mechanic three times to fix a issue. Major time consumed and costly. read more

We have taken our car here for years and these guys always do a great job. Friendly service, quality work, reasonable costs and quick turnaround time. We have a 15 year old car but they treat us like we just dropped off a 2020 Porsche. Can't recommend this place enough. A+++ read more

I came to this place after moving (and driving) up from Los Angeles to Davis. I was really concerned about my car and the drive. I was shocked that these guys did an inspection for free and found no problems with my car. :) Thanks for being honest and awesome. read more

I absolutely cannot say enough positive things about this shop. I just moved here from NJ and failed smog because of an aftermarket cold air intake my husband installed on my car, so we had to put the OEM part back into the vehicle. Danny gave me a quote of $180 and it only ended up costing 1/2 of that amount. They took my car in promptly at 8AM and I'm glad I got there a little bit early because 10 people came in behind me, so it looks like Davis knows where to go for excellent mechanics. The shop is clean, the techs are very pleasant, and they had my car done in 45 minutes. I'm a fan and will be back - and now my daughter and I have a reliable mechanic in the area. Thank you! read more

Needed CV axles replaced on my 2005 Toyota Camry. They were very responsive and answered any questions I had. Great and efficient service, I would recommend anyone to send their car here. read more

Very nice and helpful in explaining things. Good prices and fast service. They also have farm fresh eggs which is cool.

I've been to their shop 3 times in the past few months, and I'll probably be back again. Their pricing is reasonable; I was quoted $190 for a diagnostic (1hr shop rate) each time and that goes toward labor if you need anything fixed. As with any mechanic, it's hard to tell if you're being upcharged without a second professional opinion, but the employees are knowledgeable and each time I've been quoted for repairs that I expected to get for the issue at hand. Typically a same day turnaround, but they'll want you to drop it off early. Now to the reason why I only give them 4 stars. I went in because of a squeak coming from the front right shock. I'm no professional, but I had a feeling it was a bad lower ball joint. I described the squeaking and my suspicions when I dropped the car off, and I got a call a few hours later telling me that it was actually busted strut mounts. Alright, I'm no professional mechanic, so I'll go with their diagnosis. I confirmed that nothing else was wrong, and they sent me on my way with a $900 bill. Given that my car has stiffer aftermarket shocks, I've had issues with the strut mounts blowing and causing a rattle before, but never had it squeak. Sure enough, a couple weeks later, the squeak comes back. This time, they find that the ball joints are, in fact, worn out. It was a $290 replacement for both, which is a pretty typical price. It's not an issue of being up charged, and I don't doubt that the strut mounts may have been worn or blown, but I do wish they would've caught the ball joint the first time around. I don't expect to have to make multiple trips for the same noise, especially for an issue in the same shocks that are already being repaired. To their credit, they offered to inspect the issue the next day and without the diagnostic fee the second time around. read more

Quick and efficient and loved that they had several options for us in stock to choose from. Thanks for the great service!

Good, friendly, and quick service. New tires look nice and got me mobile again. Shop is close to other retail so you have something to do rather than wait in lobby. read more
