Reviews of MAR Automotive (Tires)

Sam Cuciz

john fontana

we had work done on our car today and we would highly recommend this shop to other friends.

Robyn Lutz

Great experience having our older vehicle repaired here! Trustworthy and honest shop. The work needed on our vehicle was clearly explained to us and the repairs were done in a timely manner.

Christopher Murphy

I brought my car in to have them look at my 'below the radiator heating and circulating pump' that had just shorted out. They put it up on the hoist and I was able to see the hole that had burned through the pump. They didn't charge me for the inspection. I went and got a new pump and they took me in at 9 am the next day despite being busy. Adrian replaced the pump in 45 minutes for a very fair price. Ray and Adrian seem very honest and down to earth. I highly recommend their services. God bless!

Daniel Gallant

Fantastic service, got me back on the road in just a few hours. Knowledgeable, honest people, I’ll go back any time I need to. 10/10

Jonathan David's Painting

Very knowledgeable staff, wonderful to deal with, fair prices. Very service oriented. Amazing service. If you dont want to be ripped off make sure to bring your vehicles to this location. Great location. They have recently upgraded the size of there garage so they can take on a greater amount of vehicles. They take pride in there work and back up there words and promises unlike most and many mechanics today.

Christine Croken

I am so beyond impressed with the kind and honest service I had with Ray. I'm really quite touched, he genuinely cared about my well being and safety, and offered me so many options with my car repair. He made honest recommendations and offered several solutions to my very unique problem, and absolutely went ABOVE and BEYOND. I'm very happy and if I could give these guys 20 stars, I would. I will be passing on their name to everyone I know and recommending them to anyone who is looking for a great, friendly, honest place that does quality mechanical work. I can see why their customers are so loyal. My Mom has been going there exclusively for ages for any car repairs/maintenance. Thanks again, Ray!

Lots of good reviews here, what more can be said? As busy as MAR gets, they were still able to work me into their busy schedule and get things done. What I really like is they explain what’s going on which gives you confidence that the job will be done right with no surprises.

Donald Bruce

Arnaud and Garage on Wheels has the up-most integrity. He works very clean and effectively. I highly recommend his service!

Talena Baker

If you have a vehicle that needs some love, this is the place to go! Very knowledgeable staff and competitive prices. 5/5 would recommend this place for any car troubles.

Robert Christensen

professional service, prompt and courteous.

Ananda Masri

Had a tune-up done at my home. Arnaud knows what he's doing, he's fast, friendly, and affordable.

Allan Peters

Would highly recommend for any work you need done. I live out of province and had to leave my car around for some work. They communicated well, did a great job trouble shooting what work needed to be done on a older model car, without pushing me past my budget. Thanks for all you have done!

Terri B

My husband and I have been going to MAR Automotive since they were recommended to us in 2004... and now our two adult boys take their cars to MAR, too! They are the most honest car repair place we have ever known. Their staff are very experienced and they NEVER charge you for work that isn't needed. This is especially great for my boys, who can't afford to pay for unnecessary repairs. If you want an honest, reliable, friendly and knowledgeable automobile repair place, you've got to come to MAR Automotive Ltd.

Jonathan Molnar

Excellent service. Great people to work with.

Julien Loreto

My girlfriend and I were staying with family in St Albert on a cross country trip from Toronto to Victoria. We booked the car in on short notice for service and new tires. They did a good job with the oil change and saved us money by confirming that tires we had would last through next fall. Thanks Ray!

Alexandra Peterson

Always great service! Thank you for doing exceptional work!

jiggly

Fast, efficient, decent prices. I've taken my car here a few times and always felt they did their best for me. Good work in a timely manner with the best price they could get me.

One of the best mecanic's services i ever had in the city. Honesty and reliability are what makes MAR Automotive stand out! I will go back when needed!!

Nicolas de Ruiter

Clear estimates, good communication, fair pricing and excellent work. He knows his stuff. Couldn't be happier with Garage on Wheels!

Diego Sanchez

Great place, honest shop, prompt replies and repairs. Never tried to up sell me anything I didn't need. Wil definitely be my go to shop for both my vehicles

Simon

Ray is who I usually deal with, but the other fellow, Arno, is just as good. They're both friendly professionals. Anyway, both gents have done countless repairs on my 2017 Kia, and let me tell you, I won't be changing mechanics as long as these two are working herr. All around great in every respect.

Jared Friesen

Best shop in the Edmonton area!!

Sean Fox

Lisa Thoroski

I can't say enough good things about MAR Automotive. They have amazed me both times I've dealt with them. They go above and beyond and truly care about the customer experience. I'm so happy to support a local St. Albert business that goes the extra mile!!

Nathaniel de Ruiter

Knowledgable, creative solutions, helpful with tips & advice, friendly, fair pricing. Highly recommended.

Robert Herfst

Just had work done on our 2013 Buick Encore. Leaking valve cover, coolant leak, and odd squeaking sound under the hood. First two issues, no challenge for them. Third problem was a real oddity but they figured it out. Wasn't a pulley, or belt, or any typical problem. What impressed me is that they didn't just start replacing parts to "try" to solve it. They actually identified the problem and solved it. They could have easily hosed me with a new pulley, belt, alternator, etc. That's honest auto repair. Thanks MAR.

Ana E

The people here are very kind and generous. I called in last minute as my licence plate bolts were rusted down and I couldn't remove them to replace the plate. I got there 5min to close and they removed the rusty bolts and swapped out the plates for me. I don't have any days off currently so them being able to see me last minute really saved me.

Bow Bamonte

Robert Walton

He goes about his business like the Pro he is! Uses high quality stuff and instills confidence in the work.

Susan Yates

MAR did repairs on my 2011 VW Passat and was awesome to work with, great price, great work and very professional. They take the time to talk with you and explain everything in detail, which is a huge value add when you know nothing about cars. Can't say enough positive things.

Rene Kiens

They are very professional and honest. I am very please with all the work that they have done on several of our vehicles.

Chris Gixx

Awesome service. I highly recommend them. My family have taken our vehicles here for years, and we are all happy to say that the new owners have continued to provide the amazing level of customer service that established MAR's great reputation in St. Albert.

the sign on the building honesty and care only begin to tell you what this business is like Arnaud and Ray really do care they give great service reasonable pricing but above all they are great people. People from St Albert and surrounding area try these guys once and you will never regret it, especially in these tough times everyone needs to help the small businesses

Wendy Layne

My first appointment was a standard maintenance and oil change the service was friendly and as scheduled. I received some great suggestions on new tires which I will require in the fall. Two weeks later my engine light came on Mar was willing to look at my vehicle first thing in the morning without an scheduled appointment. They diagnosed the problem which appeared to be caused by the gas tank lid not being closed completely. They explained that if the engine light was to come on again they would dig in further to investigate the cause. I was in and out in 1/2 hr at no cost which was a nice surprise. The owner really appears to enjoy his work and helping others resolve any car problems. The friendly service and genuine care will keep me coming back fir their services

Merilyn Sorensen

Friendly and honest. Tell you what needs repair at a good.price.

Chris Richard

Decided to stop in at MAR to get a second opinion on work that was quoted for my car from a shop in Edmonton and am I ever glad I did. After looking over my car the guys decided there was no need to repair something that isn't yet broken and even if it did require fixing, their price to fix came in much less than the other shops. There's only one place I'll be going for future service work down the road. Thanks Ray and Arnaud!

Darcy Wruk

Excellent, high quality, professional work. Thank you for the speedy and friendly service. Definitely will be recommending to all our friends and family.

Tammy Kuruvilla

The service and work ethic I received from Mar Automotive was exceptional and exceeded my expectations. They went above and beyond to educate me on my vehicle’s issue and networked to find me the best possible solution. Their shop was initially recommended to me by a community member and I am so grateful I took their advice and decided to put my trust in their hands.

Rob Brunning

I've been taking my vehicles to MAR for years. New owners are great. Highly recommend.

Joseph Schmidt

Amazing service! Really fast and friendly. Ray even took in my vehicle even though he was completely booked up. I would definitely recommend MAR Automotive to anyone and also will return again if needed!

Doug Watt

Constant excellent reception, service and production

Itai Gal

Swift, caring, honest work!! Arnaud responded with an appointment shortly after I called him. The car shop I went to noticed a small transmission oil spill and recommended I change my whole radiator + coolant flush... Arnaud showed up at my doorstep and carefully inspected. He ended up adjusting one of the hoses while showing me the correct way to check trani oil. A LOT OF UNNECESSARY MONEY SAVED. Will definitely call Arnaud in the future.

Amy Newsom

Pure excellence!

Lilia Olaru

Exceeded my expectations. This will be my "to go" auto-service from now on. Very friendly, explained everything in simple words for me to understand.

Zanna Tangen

Lovely person. Very helpful to me. I will definitely be calling again for any future services. I will also be recommending him to my friends and family.

Todd Kalutich

They could not help me. So instead they directed me with good refrence to someone who could. I support anyone who helps another company out they way Mar Automotive did. Hats off to these kind of people!

Glenn Walmsley

I had bought a battery here 3 months ago. Through the very cold weather and lack of regular driving it lost its charge quickly. This despite driving it for 30 minutes 1/week and having an electric battery warmer around it. Very frustrating. drove the 80 km ring road and then I popped in to make an appointment. He said it could be a bad battery but would charge it over night. He ordered a new battery in case that was the problem. He drove me home in my car and filled the time with lots of valuable info about batteries and cold weather. The next morning he called to let me know the car was fixed. The battery was good. There was something draining the battery. A normal drain is 30 units and it was at 70 units - twice as much. He found my plug in device "FixIt" that monitored what is happening with the motor. It had identified what needed to be repaired some time ago and I decided to just leave it plugged it. It was draining more than the entire rest of the car!! Problem solved. Quickly. Professionally. NO charge!!! Thank-you so very much.

Stephanie Soukup

These guys are beyond honest and want to give the best deal possible. I fully recommend them and trust them. Damn good workers here

Gaille Dillabough

Integrity is what comes to mind when I think about Mar. My parents brought their vehicles to Mar, I bring mine and now my daughter brings hers. We never get recommendations for work unless there is an issue. My daughter was advised by another mechanic that there was a $1300.00 issue with her breaks. She brought it to Mar and was advised that there were no issues with her breaks at all. That was a year ago and still no issues. It’s so great to know you can bring your vehicle in and expect a fair and honest assessment. Furthermore, the cost and quality of the work is always excellent. Thank you for your outstanding service. We are very happy customers!

Bruno

Great service! Reasonable priced and competent. Does not push unnecessary repairs, saved me money.

Ralph Buchsdrucker

Very honest! I work for a specialty automotive repair shop. A couple of weeks ago Ray called looking for advice on a BMW they had in the shop. The timing chain had broken and he was trying to find the best solution for their client. Rather than sell them a complete engine, they referred the client to us, for a repair that we were familiar with. They did what was best for the client rather than what would have benefited them.
