“I bought a used Subaru WRX. It died the day I got it (sad). I had it towed to a repair shop to replace the obvious problem (a broken serpentine belt). They said that it was running rough (gross misfires on all cylinders) but couldn't figure it out. I had it towed to another garage. They couldn't figure it out. I had it towed to The Model Garage. They did figure it out: party of the broken serpentine belt got into the timing belt.
The Model Garage solved the problem and did so with good communication and reasonable (low even?) costs. I will return there the future.”
“Phil and the rest of his team at Argonaut Garage were fantastic!! I didn’t expect this process to be such a breeze. They got me in and out within a few days and I didn’t expect the prices to be so reasonable. Thanks so much for your help Phil!”
“Needed to get a tire patch quickly on. Saturday morning. The Big-O on San Pablo recommended it after telling me it would be a 90-minute wait. Thanks Big-O. Orozco’s was the perfect solution.”
“Great service for all your vehicle tire needs plus More. Auto Option has been my choice for over 20 yrs. Single owner, Bill, has long time knowledgeable employees. He also offers brakes, tire sensor replacment, alignment, oil changes. Very convenient location near REI & Whole Foods & bus stops. Also has a waiting room.”
“Best tire service ever! They answered the phone before they opened, made an extra trip to get the tire I needed, and GAVE ME A RIDE. Funny posters in the office, dog, great service. Wonderful place.”
“I ran over a nail and needed my tire patched quickly because I'm going out of town. I showed up and they got the job done in 10 minutes. Thanks for the help!”
“Just wanted to drop you a note to Thank your team at Big O, Tires for providing great service. We personally appreciate John for arranging our appointment and providing us with updates. Great job!

“I just moved here and needed tires. They got me in right away and even drove me home as I was about to call an uber! I felt like I got a good education on what tire maintenance looks like as I am now in charge of my vehicle and am clueless. I was treated with such kindness and respect even though it was obvious I was clueless about such things. Lastly, I’d like to say how helpful the staff was to me and my needs. Great job guys and thank you.”
“I do not normally leave reviews, but the service was so exceptional I had to. If you are in Berkeley and having any car difficulties, this is THE place to go. Everyone at the business is kind, patient, and thorough. They made me feel so heard, and were so patient in explaining what was going on with my car. I can't say enough incredible things about the service and this business! I will definitely be back if I need anything.”
