Long story, but you need to read it.I went here to change my front tires on my Lexus, I have a regular mechanic, but he wasn’t available.When I picked up my car, I noticed the drivers side door wasn’t closing properly. I used to be able to use one hand to close the door, now I need both of my hands and a lot of force. I had no issues prior to them taking my car in.About 4-5 days of getting my tires changed, I’ve a “low tire pressure” message pop up, I check my PSI & it’s perfect. The message continues to pop up.3 weeks after this, my navigation screen totally fails. No radio, no backup camera, nothing is working.This could all be a coincidence. However, all of these issues are within 5 weeks of bringing my car to Minit Tune..I’ve never had a single issue with my vehicle, until I gave it to Minit Tune.It could be a coincidence, however, if you notice anything suspicious with your car. Maybe it isn’t a coincidence.I’m leaving this here for those who end up in a similar position.Another note: my partner brought his Charger here, they charged him out of the wazoo to fix it, less than a year later, they need to replace THE SAME part. The owner honoured the ‘mistake’ or whatever you want to call it.

I’ve been impressed with this business for many years, they’re always accommodating, friendly, helpful and fair. I’ve taken my old reliable Honda, my vintage Mercedes, and my new VW there over at least 10 years and they’ve always worked on them quickly and at my convenience. The new manager Dave is excellent, and Dan, Mike and Helmut are stars.

They were thorough with details over the phone and even made sure to have my car ready, when I had to work last minute. Very thankful for that and was able to get it fixed asap which is amazing!

Got recommended Minit-Tune, and called them for urgent potential fix and they listened to the problem M and really kindly worked things out to get me in the same day. Ended up not needing it after support from the service truck, but the advice they offered over the phone was clear and useful, and I will be using them for future repairs

Highly impressed with Dave, the service manager, and Dan, who got me in on a very last minute basis to have my tire diagnosed and repaired. Dave did me one extra and put the fixed tire back on my car. All of this was done in 20 minutes or so. I am going to certainly return for the rest of my car's mechanical needs. Great experience, 10/10 would recommend.

Very good experience. I am doing an across Canada trip and had some issues with my brakes. They fit me in on short notice and got me back on the road safely the same day. Would recommend 100%Services: Brakes

My experience at Minit-Tune and Brake was beyond what I expected. I was roadtripping from California to Vancouver and during the trip my radiator went out on me. I got it fixed in Oregon and was disturbed to hear a high pitch noise coming from my engine as I got into Vancouver. I decided to get it checked in at this Minit-Tune and Brake after being declined from several mechanics due to not making an appointment the week prior (completely understandable). However, Dan from Minit-Tune heard me out and took me in.Thinking it might be a quick fix, the shop discovered there were several issue with my Jeep which was beyond concerning since I was a US citizen, living/traveling in this car, hundreds of miles away from home. All in all, my water pump, sensors, thermostat, crankshaft seal, battery and marker light all had to be replaced and they were able to diagnose all of these issues within a short amount of time. End result, everything was fixed in two days, they worked overtime to have my car up and running and I was able to drive up to Whistler asap which was always the plan.To top it all off, Dan was kind enough to message me in the middle of the trip to ask how my car was running. Customer service like this is pretty rare nowadays. Dan and his head mechanic/team are more than empathetic to the stress of a bad car situation. If you're having car issues in the Vancouver area, it would be a disservice to yourself not to work with this Minit-Tune & Brake Auto Centre.Services: Electrical repair
