Woo-hoo these guys are phenomenal. Shout out to the guys here, amazing service. Thank you to Tom for problem solving and getting us on the road in 10 minutes saving our family trip. We've also used them for transmission work. Highly recommend.

I recently had my 2018 VW Alltrack serviced at Minit Auto on Fourth Ave in St Catharines for issues with the power windows and rear parking sensors, and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The staff were friendly, professional, and took the time to properly diagnose and repair the issues. They kept me informed throughout the process, completed the work promptly, and everything is now working exactly as it should. It’s refreshing to find an honest and knowledgeable repair shop that genuinely cares about its customers. I highly recommend Minit Auto to anyone looking for reliable, high quality automotive service. Thank you to the entire team for the excellent work!

I truly appreciated the quickness of the service I needed, the call back within minutes of my email requesting an appointment, the friendly and polite people. Being older and a woman, I felt respected and treated fairly without feeling pressured. Thank you! Edited 9 months later for my next service visit and again exceeded my expectation with their friendly, respectful, no pressure, knowledge based recommendations. Such quick service! Thanks again Imran and Jeff

Top quality repairs on my Buick's AC and coil pack. A quick diagnostic found the issue with a misfire. On the road again. Thanks guys.

Imran and team did a nice job presenting what options they could do for our vehicles, and if there were some items that weren't urgent, and could wait to be fixed. They have worked on both our Chrysler minivan and VW Golf. We remained happy with this garage after they worked on each.

My family was driving to Niagara when our minivan suddenly started shaking and the engine light started flashing on the QEW. We took the next exit, parked at a winery, and searched Google for nearby mechanics. These guys were the first on the list and I think we really got lucky! From the moment I called, Jeff gained my trust because instead of immediately agreeing to my impulsive idea to tow the vehicle over, he suggested driving only if I felt it was safe to do so and explained that they were really close. We made it there, and Jeff was very transparent about the situation. He explained they would need about an hour to diagnose the issue. Since we were stranded away from home and visiting from Waterloo for a weekend trip, Jeff kindly gave us a ride back to the winery while they worked on the van. He also told us he could give us a ride to the hotel if they need more time to fix it. About 3 hours later, our car was fixed. Not only did they solve the problem quickly, but Jeff also took the time to explain in detail what was wrong and show me faulty car parts something many mechanics don't do. We were able to enjoy our stay in Niagara, spend the night, and safely drive our minivan back home thanks to Jeff and his team. As for the cost, I compared their quote with other places, and they gave us a very reasonable price, especially considering the situation and how quickly they helped us. Fantastic experience. I honestly wish we had more mechanics like this in Waterloo. Pictures from the winery we stayed in while waiting for our car (:

After a year and a half of working with the Minut Auto Service team, I continue to be impressed by their professionalism and support. Here are the comments I made a year ago, which still reflect my satisfaction today: I had my winter and all-season tires changed here, and I’m very pleased with their performance. The staff (Geoff and Imran) are knowledgeable and friendly. They provided transportation to and from work for the pickup and drop-off, making the whole experience convenient.

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.

Laura Lucchesi Mar 28, 2026

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.

Robert Beer Mar 26, 2026

My go to place for quick service. Been coming here for years. Everything from oil changes, tires changes and more. Wouldn't trust taking my car anywhere else

Alkarim Ladhani Mar 26, 2026

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. 😬

Dallas Mar 26, 2026

Huge shoutout to Minit Auto! Thanks for always taking care of my vehicle!

Mal S Mar 26, 2026

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.

Jon Turco Nov 28, 2016

The team at Minit Auto/Tirecraft Auto Centre always does an excellent job for us! We highly recommend them for great, friendly service.

Blew a brake line near this shop so had next to no choice but to pull in for a repair. We had the problem diagnosed and fixed within an hour. Pleasure dealing with them and would highly recommend to anyone in the area

Lee Vanderveen Mar 24, 2026

Imran, Geoff and the Minit Auto team are great. I needed urgent repairs and they were able to schedule me in and get the job done. They even cleaned up my car inside and out…a nice bonus.

Peter Hassan Mar 23, 2026

They really take care of their customers. They take the time to fully explain what your vehicle needs to have done. Would highly recommend this garage to anyone looking for good mechanics!

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.
