When you have been use to paying big bucks to auto dealerships to have your vehicles maintained, it is finally wonderful to find a place that gives you full service, quality workmanship and a family atmosphere without all the smoke and mirrors. Minit Auto is all of the above. You are treated with respect, you receive great communication from beginning to end and you feel you are a valued customer. There are never any surprises when you take your car in for service. The best part about working with the Minit staff is that you know they have your best interest at heart and when you leave you realize that you have received excellent value and quality service.

Any issue I've had, Geoff has solved and sorted. I appreciate his *patience and ability to explain in simple detail. Going forward I'll choose him and Minit over anywhere else. *I start crying at a flat tire. 😬

Imran and crew were amazing. We called and within a week we were able to get a stabilizer installed for a great price. We asked him to check the brakes, they were thorough, understood our concerns the for the car and put on the winter tires for us at the end. Imran examplifies what great customer service is with a nice smile. I highly recommend this stop for all your auto needs... So many mechanics are money grubbers and just want to squeeze you dry, not here. It's all about you and your needs, getting you safely back on the road.

I brought my Mercedes into the shop for a service and these guys were great. I didn't know they had as much foreign car experience as they do. Very friendly and accommodating. They always kept me in the loop for every step. Prices were great. I will definitely be going back.

Steve Borisenko Jul 6, 2025

Major work done recently on my Kia. Imran, Geoff and the team got everything done in a day and a half. Great results as always. Have done business with these guys for many years, and will continue to do so. Thanks again Geoff.

I had an outstanding experience with Minit when they serviced my wife’s Acura RDX. The issue was diagnosed and fixed incredibly fast, and the service advisor was friendly, professional, and easy to deal with from start to finish. The car is now running amazing, and you can really tell the work was done right. As a bonus, the team even washed the vehicle and returned it looking better than when I dropped it off. That level of care and attention to detail really sets them apart. Highly recommend Minit to anyone looking for fast, trustworthy, and top-notch service.

Douglas Backus Nov 4, 2021

Great approach to customer, great guys. They explained everything in details what was needed to be repaired and kept it touch throughout the repair with updates and follow ups. This was the first time we used this guys,mainly because of the convenience since they're located very close to place where we live. First impression was very good,we believe they truly offer great and honest service. After all,all reviews are confirming that. Keep up the good work ! Ludvic

Great customer service Fast and efficient service

Cory Williams Feb 20, 2026

I had a really great experience at Minit Auto Service Repair Shop. I came in during an emergency when they were already busy and close to closing, and other places told me they wouldn’t even be able to look at my car for several days. Despite that, they still made time for me. They even provided a shuttle, which made a stressful situation much easier to deal with. My car had to stay overnight, and they actually kept it for two days to do a thorough inspection and make sure everything was properly checked. I really appreciated that they didn’t rush the process just because they were busy. Imran was especially straightforward and helpful. I really appreciated how direct and honest he was .. no confusion, no pressure, just clear information. That kind of transparency goes a long way!

Candice Henry-Hill Feb 15, 2026

Fantastic service!!! A pleasure dealing with Imran and Jeff. Best place in the city-and how great-car serviced and cleaned.

We discovered Minit Auto after having a flat tire. Again just recently for snow tires and rims. A very clean facility and friendly, knowledgeable and professional staff. We were extremely satisfied with the quotes and how quickly they could get the job done. We highly recommend this business.

Gayle Ashby Feb 2, 2026

Great service, looked at my car same day I brought it in with no appointment. Very caring about safety of customers.

Krystal Fortin Feb 1, 2026

My wife and I are taking a road trip and I had to get my car checked. It was checked at a. convenience time and made sure we wont have any problems.

Kevie Sherman Jul 10, 2025

These guys go above and beyond to make sure you understand your vehicle's health. I'm not car savvy, but they make sure I understand what the issue is, what is needed, and even offer different options if cost is a factor to your car's care. Every time I get my car or truck serviced, it comes back squeaky clean! A nice touch. Geoff and Imran are great guys! And each gentleman who have shuttled me also have been great. Can't recommend Minit Auto enough.

andrew van grieken Jan 28, 2026

Imran and Geoff at Minit Auto are fantastic! They are very knowledgeable and always happy to explain anything I have questions about. I always feel like I’m getting the best service possible at Minit Auto and I really value their integrity and honesty, not something you get with some shops out there. Definitely check them out for any of your automotive needs:)

Cathy DeSimone Sep 21, 2023

Once again the team at Tirecraft provided excellent and timely service for my car. I highly recommend Geoff, Imran, and the staff for their customer service, professionalism, and attention to detail!

Michele Lunn May 3, 2024

After 20+ years going to the same mechanic, I wasn't about to jump to just anywhere. I initially began visiting Minit to have my propane tanks refilled. I appreciated the friendly service, customer loyalty program, and most importantly, how they spoke to their customers about their cars - knowledgeably, but not condescendingly. Eventually I brought my cars in for seasonal tire changes and brake work. The workmanship so far seems excellent, and they are always done within the estimated time frame. Most importantly, they communicate quickly and effectively, whether before, during or after service. It's a family-run business that feels like one, in the best ways.

Kevin Moroney Jan 7, 2026

Professional, very knowledgeable and fair. Imran spoke plainly, not too technical ! Very friendly, makes you feel like part of the family. I highly recommend you to my friends & I will be back if I need any more work done.

John Hermann Gondosch Mar 27, 2022

Always an exceptional customer service experience! Geoff and Imran and the team at Minit Auto go above and beyond to make me feel valued. They are open and honest about pricing and expectations, even offer a free loaner if they need to keep a vehicle for a few days. My cars even get treated to a cleaning with each visit! Honestly this is the only mechanic I will ever trust with my vehicles! They go above and beyond...prepare to be amazed!

Chris Mackay Dec 31, 2025

Great service at a great price. The service at this garage is the best and I will definitely be coming back with my other vehicles. Kudos gents! You really earned my appreciation. Thanks

Imran is very professional. My car was serviced right way. I got dropped off home and picked up from home the following day. All the workmanship was explained and I definitely recommend them very highly.
