I went in for new tires and an alignment with a short turn around time. Walter was super helpful and said that the car needed only 2 tires not 4! He chose a middle of the road price and told me that it would be done in a couple of hours. Super friendly, honest service at a fair price. What more could you want? read more

Yesterday I had a flat tire on the freeway! AAA towed me to Able Tire & Brake in Novato. They were great: they calmed me down; put on 2 new tires & gave me a very good deal!!! Thank you, Thank you!! read more

Absolute garbage service. Had squeaky breaks so I took it in. They turned the front rotors, charged me and did nothing. Brought it back, they turned the back rotors, charged me again and it did nothing. Brought it back again and they found a piece of metal debris stuck to my break pad. Told them to put new break pads, charged me again. Finally no squeaky breaks but now my steering wheel wobbles when I apply the breaks which means the rotors are warped. Fucking idiots. Need to take it back again but I refuse to bring any of my vehicles there again. I'd rather pay anyone else. Do not take your vehicle there. Fuck this place read more

I've been here a number of times for tires and other services, and have a consistently excellent experience. I trust this company's employees, which as you know is very important for your car's best care as well as your budget. They are very pleasant to work with, which makes me look forward to getting the work done on my car here. read more

To replace the left turn signal bulb on my 2004 CTS Cadillac. Labor cost was 200.00 .03 they charge 60.00 part cost, 2.70 labor non-taxable light bulb tax .25 total cost 62.95. A couple of months went by I don't drive this vehicle much; the same thing happened. I was told that was the original turn that was in there in the first place. so did nothing but gave it a knock when I complained about the charge and asked Bob who the owner was. He told me he died. he was the best. Stay clear of these people total cost was 28. dollars. They cut the connection to replace the bulb. I do not trust them. obviously read more

Friendly place who quickly handled my problem. Being from out of town, I had to find a tire quickly and get it mounted. They were great.

Went in for flat repair. They removed the tire from the wheel to point out a brad nail that was in just the perfect position to not be able to repair. The other huge nail dead center would have been an easy repair. But the brad nail was still sticking out from the outside. You didn't need to remove the tire to see it. So, easy to tell the customer, hey- we might not be able to repair because of this. But no, they took the tire off of the wheel to make sure that I would buy a replacement. I told them to put the tire on and 20 minutes later, they still hadn't put it back on. The price for the replacement was more than the local car dealer. That should tell you something. The tire was also not available, so I had to wait a day. Before you get a flat repair, check the location to see if they have the tire and get a quote. Learned the very hard way. This place left a very bad taste. Never go for anything again. read more

Last week we called Able Tire & Brake to diagnose a wheel/brake issue on our 31 foot MOTORHOME. Talked to Arnie. He was told it was an E450 Ford chassis, what the symptons were what I felt needed to happen (be able to lift MH off ground to spin both back wheels at the same time.) He said we can help you, come in Monday for us to look at it. So now today is Monday and after driving thru town and school traffic, we get to Able and I ask one of the employees to come out with me to explain what I need. I ask the persons name and it's Arnie. I said great you are the person I talked to on Friday. He says, "no, you didnt talk to me." When he sees the motorhome, he says "We don't work on motorhomes. I asked him why he told me come in then? We can rotate your tires he tells me. I ask what that has to do with my issue of a squeal when the wheels turn (and the tires are brand new with 500 miles on them). The conversation went downhill from there. A complete waste of time. We will never go to Able again and strongly recommend others do the same. Maybe Able would like to reimburse me for my time and gas, just a suggestion. Or maybe have Arnie pay more attention to what people are saying over the phone rather than say "come on down, we can help you. read more

Stopped in for a tire rotation. I didn't have an appointment and that wasn't a problem. In and out within an hour, and they even found a nail in one of the tires and fixed it! Walter was great and didn't try to sell me on getting new tires right away, alignment etc which I have had happen at other tires shops more than once. I will be definitely be back for future rotations and new tires when the time comes. Really appreciate honest business practices and highly recommend Able! read more

The service was top notch and the quality was great and the price for my tires was great

I have been getting new tires and tire rotation from them for 20 plus years. Never had a problem. They are always nice and very helpful.

We needed a new tire on our car and this place was able to take our car in immediately one morning. Staff behind the counter were super knowledgeable, very friendly, and helpful. We hung around but decided to take a walk since we were waiting. Before we knew it our car was ready. Love their attention and quick service as well. Thanks guys!!! read more

We got a flat tire 4 hours away from home and they said our tread was too low to fix. Brand new crosstrek with 15000 miles. He quoted us for 2 new tires for $400. We asked to see the tire and a different guy showed it to us and things didn't line up with what the first guy told us and he even tried selling us all 4 tires instead for $900. Anyway, it was worth driving 5 hours home on a spare tire and getting the tire fixed at Hummel in Fortuna, California. read more

Able are my go to tire anything! I recommend them to everyone. I get the best service and pricing here and everyone is always so nice to me!

First visit to able tire & Brake. Had my wheels rotated free of charge, wow! I've just become a loyal customer, also they are an authorized Michelin dealer so will be my go to tire place. read more

My tire pressure light came on and I immediately panicked. Last time that happened a very big nail punctured my tire on the highway. Right away I looked for a tire shop around me and found Able Tire & Brake. They were super friendly, fast, and efficient. I was back on the road in no time and even made it to work on time. Great service! I would definitely go back to them if needed. read more

WOW! What a group of great people that work here. Had tires rotated and a license plate added. They took care of me from start to finish. Can't thank you all enough and next time, I'm bringing donuts for sure P.S. They are extremely disability friendly. read more

What a wonderful place! They're so helpful, quick and knowledgeable. I've stopped by twice now and I was in and out in less than an hour. Told them I drive disabled around and any service light, scares them. So I can't work until it's fixed. They knew exactly what needed to be done. I even brought donuts to them twice, which they love(hint, hint). Everyone I've told plans to go there in the future. Excellent customer service and unbelievable prices. Means alot in these times and the fact I work for a non profit. Thanks guys, I'll be back! read more

Worked with Brian today, and he was able to get me in and out within a reasonable fashion. I went in to have my tire pressure sensors re-calibrated since the tire pressure sensors I bought with my new tires were not reading. Though it is a minor thing, I honestly don't like to have any lights on my dash especially for tire pressure warning. The tire pressure light was flashing because one of the sensors was not reading. After my vehicle was finished, I took a second look at our vehicle, and it had tire dressing on it. Made it look new again! Able Tire and Brake is an honest, family owned business that won't try to rob you like a dealership would. Save yourself from spending hundreds of dollars at dealers that will not only waste your time without a shuttle, and having you sit there with a handful of masked people! Go to Able tire and brake, the locals favorite! Thanks again for your help today guys! read more

Younger daughter borrowed my car to get her second covid vaccination shot. She must have picked up a sheet metal screw or something when exiting the freeway because we woke up the next morning to a flat tire. After my daughter did a data gathering phone call we had the car towed here. They received my car from the tow truck, assessed my tire, phoned me with the quote, special ordered the tire, mounted it when it arrived, and I paid over the phone. So convenient! All of this happened while I continued working at home uninterrupted. I really, really appreciate that. Courtney was super helpful and informative. Everyone at Able Tire and Brake made my life easier by offering me a professional, expedient tire replacement service. Fiver for perfection. I recommend! read more

They got me a wonderful deal for tires for my daughter's car, and then rotated them for free. The staff were exceptional in their customer service.

Thanks guys for treating this Veteran with great service and care! read more

Best customer service I have encountered in a very long time. Everyone was smiling, helpful and attentive. Great people to work with!

There is just nothing negative to say. I've been coming to able tire and brake since I moved to Novato over 20 years ago. Able tire has been consistently rocksolid. Everything from selection, advice, customer service, solid work done on time, everything is 100% every time. A Saturn, two Honda's, , Prius, and Chevy Bolt have all had new tires and brakes done at Able. Best shop ever. read more

Needed a full set of tires for my BMW. We ordered in the morning and they were in the shop in the afternoon. Thanks, Keith! I was done with run flats and requested other comparable options. Super happy with my Michelin tires. Fast service as they were done in an hour. Friendly front counter staff. (My Dane might've helped a bit) Thanks for all the help! read more

Multiple times now, Able Tire has really come through for me when I needed my tires checked out. Once in the early days of the quarantine when I came out in the morning and found my tire flat, I thought I'd have to get it towed but Able sent someone out to change it on site, which saved me a lot of money. This last time, I just brought it in when my tire pressure light came on. They fixed it for me, no charge, in an hour. It's friendly service like this that makes me go out of my way to patronize this business. Thanks for being awesome. PRO TIP: right across the street from Able Tire, there's an amazing new Peruvian restaurant and cocktail bar called Ayawaska Hilltop with gorgeous views. If you're waiting for your car, pop up the hill and have a craft cocktail and some empanadas while you wait! read more

Able Tire & Brake - Tires Near Me - Novato, California

Great service. My daughter ripped her tire and being it was a newish car originally took to novato Toyota who very predatorily told her not only she needed 2 new tires but told her it would be 500 dollars. This car is less than 6 months old. So after work we drove together to able tire 40 mins before they close, expecting to have to come back. Not only did they have a replacement tire but it was 159.00 and they confirmed we only needed one tire. Honesty goes along way. They have a customer for life when it comes to tires. Lesson learned to young ones. Dealerships service department aren't always the most trust worthy. As for the employees and service. This crew is amazing. Girls still smiling end of day everyone happy and polite. Props to the owners, happy employees is a good thing! read more

I had an issue with some tires a few weeks back. I delt with Brian the sales manager. Stand up guy. Really took good care of the issue. He went above and beyond. Top notch service. Very satisfied! I feel very lucky to have the best mechanic in town now, I have the best tire and brake place in town. Kuddos to you Brian and the team at Able Tire & Break! I'll be back. Thank you. read more

Brakes were making some crazy noises, so I drove to Novato because of Abel's reviews. As it turns out, nothing was wrong with the brakes. They are an HONEST and TRUSTWORTHY small business. Thank you. read more

I cannot give this place a better review....I was greeted at door and was taken care of right away...great honest service...

I would like to give 10 stars if I have the option to Able Tire & Brake. Specifically the manager Jaime. They are the best and very honest in their business. My friend took his Honda civic to them on early AM hours because it was making very loud noise on the bottom. Upon running the full inspections they removed the damaged part and inspected for other damages free of charge. my friend had two hours of drive ahead of him and wanted to make sure that nothing was wrong with car. This act of service truly shows their commitment of taking care of people and the best part about them is that they are the best neighbors. They always let others utilize their car parking spaces and other necessities. read more

They do quality work at reasonable prices. They explain exactly what's needed and never try to upsell you or spring extra costs on you afterward. read more

I was not aware that most new cars no longer have spare tires in the trunk, not even a baby tire. So when I blew a tire this morning on the freeway going to work and managed to get to the shoulder between the on ramp and the slow lane, I had plenty of room for the tow truck to load me up. The tow company had already called ahead to Able Tire and Brake to start the process of getting my tire replaced. Brian was the advisor who welcomed me. They were so friendly, so professional and made sure I understood exactly what they needed to do. They gave me a great deal and I recommend this shop to anyone in a 50 mile radius to visit them. They are honest, clean and thorough. read more

This morning I had four new tires put on my Toyota by Able Tire in Novato. I waited for 45 minutes while they were being installed. I was impressed by the clean waiting room, by how courteous and respectful the staff were to all the customers, and by how quickly and competently my new tires were installed. Their prices are extremely fair, and I appreciated that a second employee came out to check on the job before I drove away. From now on, I will get tires and brake work done only at Able. They are a true gem! read more

We have had 3 instances with this company. The first time to get all new tires and this experience was positive. Because we had a positive experience, when we needed a new tire for the same car we returned. At that appointment we were told that there was an issue with a major part of the care and that we should take care of. Naturally, because we had confidence and good experiences up to this point, we took the car back after several month to have it looked at for the repair of the major part. This is when things went south. At this point we dealt exclusivity with the service manager. He is a nice enough guy and communicating with his was a nightmare. He was not clear in his explanations about the issues, spoke quickly, used scare tactics, and was over all unpleasant. Additionally, he would not communicate updates, we had to call to rest information. This third time that Able dealt with our car it took 2 back and forts to finally get the issue resolved. We drove it home after the the car was "fixed" and after not even 48 hours the car had problems again and was unsafe to drive. When we explained what happened, the service manger accused us of damaging the car and never once considered that the part or the repair could have been the issue. Eventually, the car was repaired after we were falsely accused. The poor communication continued. So much so that when I called to ask about the car, one employee told me the car was fixed and then I received a call that afternoon saying that it was not fixed. After spending over a $1000 for an unexpected expense the last thing you want to deal with is poor communication and being made to feel like an issue is of your wrong doing. There are so many other options..don't waste your time with these unacceptable issues. At this point I do not have any more confidence in this company, the parts, or the work, however the only saving grace is that we have a year warranty. read more

Thank you Able Tire & Brake! In less than 40 min they repaired my tire with a slow leak and I was ready to go. All for $33. Other tire companies told me I would need to buy at least 2 new tires to replace the one with a slow leak ($550). Now I can keep using this for what should be another 30,000 miles. Great service and communication by Able Tire! read more
