“Friendly staff and great work at a fair price ! Took my bug in when it needed a few things and got it fixed and running like new the next day :) so releived and very happy with the workmanship!”
“Got my AC compressor and and idler pulley replaced the same day. Made my appointment just one day prior.
The price was reasonable and the service was friendly.”
“100% RECOMMENDED for Excellent Affordable Friendly Service! We had a late Sunday night breakdown while visiting Sydney and the tow truck driver recommended Brian Mackie, so we dropped the car off in his almost full lot, stuck the keys in the secure drop slot, and hoped for the best. The best is what we got! I called at 8am Monday to explain and Brian said not to worry, he'd take care of it. By 11:30am the car was diagnosed, parts installed, running great and ready for pickup! The bill was reasonable for the parts and labour, and Brian was upbeat, friendly and reassuring in answering my questions, and even offered some wrapped chocolates in a candy jar in the customer lounge. Nice touch! If I lived locally, I would certainly plan to go back. Thank you very much Brian (and thanks also to the tow truck driver who recommended it!)”
“Mike is awesome! Visiting from Toronto 2 separate trips, different imported cars, needed his help. My Volvo’l wouldn’t start, he found broken tooth on the flywheel. Neither he nor any other mechanic in Sydney qualified to fix. He showed me a way to start the car so I could make it safely back to Toronto to my mechanic. Most recent trip, one wheel on my Audi making weird noise. He found it was damaged plastic dust cover, removed and I will order and replace when I’m back home. Both times he fit me in without appointment and did not charge me a penny for his time. Mike treated me like family, highly recommend!”

61 Beech St, Sydney“The best. They dealt with my insurance extremely well, even when they didn't want to pay for the blending of paint right away.
The color match is perfect, better than the factory paint.
I've not been the easiest customer and they took care of every concern of mine.
Thank you. You've got me as a permanent customer. And also anyone else that'll listen to my recommendation.
Cheers!”
“Super friendly bunch of guys here! Very accommodating! extremely thankful they we're able to fix my car issue so quickly! Thanks for the great service McCormick's”
“Great service! My appointment was at 8 AM, and they had my car in right on time. They installed my Type R exhaust on my Civic Hatch with no issues at all. This is probably the best muffler shop around Cape Breton. I’d definitely recommend it to my friends and family.”
“Traveling. Needed oil change & tire rotation. Very busy garage great reputation but found room for us. Highly recommended by a local bus mechanic. Very hospitable and knowledgeable. Couldn't be happier.”
“I'd chosen this shop for my vehicle service.(One way check point)The shop manager was cool with people from other province like myself. I personally liked to use Pennzoil for my vehicle motor oil and thankfully they understand about it. And used them exactly 6Qt as the manufacturer recommendation! I was very impressed with taking a simple job professionally. I'm sure this is the place that we can trust our vehicle and willing to visit again for my next trip? Thank you again”
“I had a situation where I heard some grinding coming from the rear of my vehicle. Sparkes was able to get me in the very next day (I called pretty late in the day to begin with) and very likely would have had my vehicle back to me that day had the store they acquired their parts from not opened very late in the day after a second round of heavy snow. As it was I still got my vehicle repaired and back to me the following day in a timely manner and the mechanics even found another small issue that had been missed by the previous work I'd had done on the car elsewhere and were able to correct it. The men working there were also very nice, offering to give me a ride to and then back from the hotel I was staying at down the street instead of needing to call for a cab. They also let me know about a non-immediately-serious issue to keep an eye out for that I could address at a later time. Overall I thought they were absolutely great and I'd definitely recommend them if anyone is needing repairs for their vehicle.”
“My husband and I had a rental car which had a leaking tire while on vacation. We are from Alberta. We needed to get it fixed. They were busy but they checked and fixed our tire immediately. I would use them again. First class service”
“They were absolute experts in repairing 2 stock rims for 2012 Dodge avenger that were damaged this winter due to the roads in CBRM. I would highly recommend Kyle and his crew for any rim repairs for a good price!Service: Tires”

137 Kings Rd, Sydney“Another shop in town changed my tires, but couldn’t do an alignment because my vehicle has lane departure assistance. They recommended JJ Barrington’s to complete my alignment. I called JJ’s in the morning and got an appointment the same day. JJ’s had me in and out in less than 45 minutes. The staff were very friendly and provided great service. I highly recommend!Service: Wheel alignment”
“Very good place to get tires with good warranty based on wear of tire. Also a good place for oil changes and general maintenance. Cost of products and service is reasonable.”
“Started a new job that requires me on the road all day and my A/C stopped working. They got me in the same day, in and out in under 20 minutes! Nice bunch of guys! Thanks so much!”

303 Welton St, Grand Lake Road“Got a front caliber done on my drivers side along with a brake inspection by Sydney Mazda. A week later my brake light turned on so I immediately took my vehicle in the next morning driving for my life thanks to my emergency brake! Turns out my brake fluid was gushing out the front where my caliber was done but they still fixed it for me & I won’t find out until next week if I’m paying for the service or what because the power was out at their location so they couldn’t do any paperwork. Very odd situation and I’m hoping it doesn’t cost me an arm and a leg because it’s Christmas weekend.”

104 Disco St, Sydney“Appreciate the free EV charger! Pulled 7kw for free vs 17kw(actually 11kw) across the street for a ridiculous 25 cents a minute.
Support like this after the sale of an EV is what gets noticed. I wish it was available outside business hours to aid with the poor infrastructure in NS, but understandable.”

These people fit us in, told us about 4pm and they close at 5. Did a oil change rotated the tires and inspection within the hour. Excellent service, we appreciated the consideration of not having a pre planned appointment. Price was very good. Thank you for your help. All other places wanted a week before we could get it done. Some no answer, others didn't return call. Thanks again OK Tire owners and staff.”

The techs are very knowledgeable and they are always pleasant to deal with . Pricing is always more then fair . If I could give the place 10 stars I would . Thanks you guys for all your help each time I come in to get work done on my cars . Soooo much appreciated!”
“The owner is soooo nice and helpful!! Our tire alarmed on our way to Cape Breton and a nail is spotted. We’re so thrown off cuz the rental company Enterprise is not effective and it’s late that all auto shops are closed. We’re lucky to find this only one that’s open and he fixed it quickly without charging us. Made our day much better. Absolutely recommend his shop!!”
