I'm a newcomer to Tirecraft Huntsville but they came highly recommended by friends and family. They made a point of thoroughly going over my car before making any recommendations for service. They took the time to have me look at the items on the car that required work - that was a first! Pricing was very competitive and the owner and staff were very friendly and accomodating.

Exhaust pipe blew itself off the catalytic converter on my 17-year-old Honda Fit. Chris showed me the issue and highlighted options. Catalytic converters are not cheap so we decided to try a repair on the pipe connection. A couple of split-flanges later and Chris had me back on the road at 10% the cost of a full converter replacement. Definitely coming back here when I'm in Huntsville!

Took a European car I had done the correct diagnosis using proprietary software something they don't have. Told them exactly what the problem was and what needed to be fixed. They used inferior scan tool which is fine for domestic vehicles however unacceptable for German cars. This leads them to 1) incorrectly diagnosed the car 2) waste of time and money The issue was speed / abs sensors but their conclusion was a battery reset wasn't done. Had they possessed the correct diagnostic equipment or had any experience in diagnosis of European autos (both of which they assured they had) it would have been abundantly obvious what the issue was and how to correctly troubleshoot. When brought to the attention of the owner he got defensive , intimidated and his feelings were hurt according to him because he was called out on his inability to do his job properly. At no point did he provide a reason , remorse or accept responsibility for his incompetence. Definitely is not a place to service any high end European auto or any car with complex electronics. Cheeper and more cost efficient to go to a professional shop or dealer.

Finding a reliable Mechanic can be difficult. Came into Tirecraft on the recommendation of a friend a few years back. The entire team has been a pleasure to deal with. Never an issue, always professional. As a contractor the health of my truck is vital, they understand this & nothing gets overlooked. Thanks guys.

While driving up to North Bay from down south, the muffler pipe broke off. Several shops turned me away, but Kyle got me up on a hoist as soon as they could to secure the pipe so it wasn't dragging on the road. The mechanics came up with a custom fix that silenced the car and saved my weekend. Hugely appreciated. Update - 2 months later I'd forgotten I had a problem until Google highlighted 500 views of my post. Solid work that lasts. Thanks again Kyle.

I have never left an auto shop feeling confident in the work that was done and understanding what was done, now I have! The Tirecraft team is hardworking, patient, and funny! A real triple threat in my opinion. Thanks again! I’ll be going here from now on that’s for sure.

Excellent service at a good price. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. I have been to at least four other vehicle repair places in Huntsville over the last few years and this was the best experience I have had by far. Thank you!

I came here on a recommendation from a friend. I needed a second opinion. A dealership was trying to sell me some work that didn’t need done (for a price tag of $2000). Tirecraft checked everything and saved me $2000! My new garage. Thanks guys!

Don't order tires through Huntsville Auto Repair. This shop is a separate entity from Tire Craft. Placed a $50 deposit on tires and there's no tires. Huntsville Auto Repair apparently doesn't receive order information from Tire Craft. Huntsville Auto Repair cannot confirm if they have ordered the tires. Given the typical run around from Tire Craft head office on refunding my deposit.

Great service!!! We got a flat tire while travelling near Minden, on our way to Dwight. We called everywhere for a replacement. Nobody had the proper size tire. Cory to the rescue! He found us a gently used tire and had it installed in no time! He was honest, friendly and very accommodating. His price was also more than fair! We would highly recommend this establishment.

Kyle and Chris were great. I dropped in hoping they could check SUV's brake controller (for trailer) Although busy, they were able to diagnose the problems, get parts and repair in under 3 hours. Without repair, I couldn't have safely made the drive home from Arrowhead. Thanks again!

I was on holidays at a cottage north of Huntsville and noticed the evening before I was checking out that my tire was losing air. I called them in the morning and was greeted by a friendly voice stating that I could come anytime in the morning. In less than 30 minutes my tire was plugged and back on my car! They even checked the other 3 tires to make certain they were good for my drive back home. Thanks to this team at Tirecraft in Huntsville for making my holiday end on a positive note and for the quick and efficient service. I would recommend this company without a doubt if you are new to this area, or just visiting for awhile. I am certain you have many happy customers in Huntsville!

These guys hit the mark in every aspect! Their service was great and they were able to find me a spare tire to get home to Hamilton. If I lived in the area, they would be my go to mechanic. I learned they do everything but body work and windshields. Thanks again!!

Unfortunately, this shop isn't what it used to be for quality of work etc. I had an appointment for 10:30 am & waited until about 3:30 to finally get out of there. Before I left, Eric pointed out to me that the pulley that's connected to the power steering belt had to be replaced. They should've seen this when the belts were off!! As well, he indicated to me that the owner of this establishment isn't making enough money & to charge for absolutely everything......a telling sign that the company is in financial trouble, or someone's getting greedy. That's not my problem, & for Eric to gossip about the people he works for, he's cutting his own throat. I don't know if Kyle was demoted or what, as his father owns this company. At least Kyle was an honest & friendly individual. Now, he's just hidden in the background.
