All the guys at Town Fair Tire in Berlin, Vt are great at what they do, and stayed until the job was done, no matter that it was after closing hours. I returned a week later for my alignment, and was treated just as good by the other guys on staff. These men are kind professionals that gained my trust, and I wont be going anywhere else for my tires and alignments. I love how the customer is able to watch as their vehicle is being worked on, and when it is done via the monitors in the waiting room. Thank you all so much!

I was referred to Mackinaw Wheel Repair from another tire place in the area that was having trouble…read morefixing one of my tires. It had a slow leak, and I had to keep stopping and reinflate the tire. I called and left a message and the owner got back to me the next day. We scheduled the appointment and when I brought my car in, he was ready to get to work. Within 10 minutes, he had my tire off the car and mounted to inspect it and found the issue, which took another couple of minutes to fix. It turned out that paint had clogged the valve stem and his feeling was that the other tire place that recommended Mackinaw to me could have fixed the issue. The owner fixed the issue, mounted the wheel back onto my car and in the end did not charge me, because it took less than 15 minutes. So, with handshake and a thank you, I was on my way. Side note, the dog is friendly and fun to talk to while you wait.

Their prices are fair; they are totally professional; they go out of their way to make sure repairs are only those needed. I'm a car guy, but I don't mess with air conditioning. The air conditioning in my Jeep failed suddenly and through sheer good fortune I landed here. Despite no appointment, they managed to squeeze me in during the recent heat wave. In a matter of minutes they diagnosed my problem and gave me a written estimate to repair. But the part needed wasn't immediately available so I would need to return the next business day. No problem. As a car guy, I was watching the ebb and flow of the waiting area very closely. What I saw was nothing but fair and honest dealing. No "upselling". No attempts to badger customers into unneeded repairs. In a couple of cases I saw them actually "down-sell" by persuading the customer that all they needed at the time was a less expensive fix. Honesty such as this is uncommon in the auto repair business. We hear stories and witness predatory practices in this industry. So it's VERY refreshing to see a business that's run above board, fairly, and honestly. Keep up the good work, New England Automotive!!!

Cliff, Dominic, Jacob... and the gentleman hidden beneath my vehicle handling the oil drop... In a word: Superlative... In late October... I had mentioned to Jacob about distributing helium balloons to the kids while they waited patiently for the vehicle service in mom/dad's car... it was just a suggestion... I did not think he would take me literally... But he went further... I was the destination of the idea he ran with... After a 5-minute wait, I received an oil change today in addition to a safety check... tire pressure check... vehicle lights... and car wash... (the high center brake light assembly was also changed!) With humor... aplomb, dignity... and professional assessments of my truck... And... Jacob handed me a coveted red helium balloon... Perhaps it is just symbolism... but this gesture is far-reaching... this cements my go-to place for service... Not just a simple symbol... but an assurance of consistency in service standards... I am carrying the spouse in my truck... others are carrying kids... Truly... they are most important cargo of all... Thank you for such great service! Tom Baker

I was hoodwinked into saying ok to their "let's do the oil change/air filter change BEFORE the…read moreinspection" and was thereby TRICKED into spending over $300 BEFORE they did looked at the truck's under body which FAILED inspection. If I had known the truck would fail inspection, then why would I spend over $300 on the old change and air filters? The order in which the two services occurred is DELIBERATELY DESIGNED so that the company can MAKE MONEY before failing your inspection. THIS IS SURELY NOT A GOOD BUSINESS PRACTICE. BUYERS BEWARE. AT THE VERY LEAST, BE SURE TO INSIST THAT THEY PERFORM THE INSPECTION FIRST. DON'T BE HOODWINKED.

For at least the last six years I've been using Vermont tire exclusively to purchase both my all…read moreseason and Winters snow tires. I currently own three cars and we use them extensively. The men at the Montpelier office are always very helpful and get the work done as quick and safely as possible. I have shopped around many times and often find that given the level of service the price I pay for any tire is well worth it to stick with Vermont tire and service. With the purchase of new tires you also receive free tire rotations and flats are fixed. Since our vehicles are driven about 120,000 miles a year I am a regular visitor to the tire shop and they greet me by name and take the upmost care in all my dealings with them.

I had to have it towed to two shops until they found... the transmissions drain plugged was pulled by someone that did the oil change that didnt know what they were doing and likely put it back as soon as they noticed they screwed up. My transmission is supposed to hold 3.5 liters but only had 1.5 in it. They almost cost me $14,000 for a new transmission (they did cost me a couple of thousand in towing charges and trying mechanics trying to figure out what happened). Separately, I had tried to make an appointment for my wife's tires since she bought them there but they wouldnt make an appointment and were rude. Me and my family will never go there again.
