David at Bayside Tire & Auto is so extremely helpful, I trust his judgment implicitly. When my car wouldn't start after filling up with fuel at a nearby station the attendant said it was a bad carbon filter. He said it let it sit and try again. The next morning I called David at Bayside Tire and Auto and told him the story. He asked if the warning lights had come on, which they hadn't. His instructions were to only bring it to him for replacement if the warning lights came on or it didn't eventually start. The problem was due to topping off after the pump stopped. There was a warning in my new vehicle's owner's manual to not ever do this. I highly value the honesty of Bayside Tire and Auto. Another repair center would have just replaced the carbon filter. Not David with Bayside Tire and Auto. My trust in them is high. read more

A good friend of mine suggested I take my car to Bayside Tire and Auto when I was told by another service station that there was several things wrong with my vehicle and the estimate was quite high. Bayside Tire and Auto did State Inspection and looked over my car and there was one thing that needed to be fixed. I am so glad I was sent there. Honest, quick and extremely nice. I will be taking my car to the. For all of my service needs. read more

We've been using Bayside tire and auto for years on several cars. They always provide excellent, professional and thorough service. I highly recommend them. read more

They are fast and efficient with service. Work is explained so I know what is needed and being done. Their technician reviewed a dealership list of "what's needed" costing $1000. After the review we found suggestions were unnecessary and cost was much lower. This is my go to place. read more

These guys are great! I had been chasing an intermittent oil pressure sensor warning since 2021. I've asked shops to replace the sensor, but they would replace a seal or something else because the couldn't find it. I described my problem to bayside, they changed the pressure sensor, and voila - problem fixed. I also had a coolant leak that had cost me 2 trips to a different shop. The other shop replaced some hoses, but it didn't fix the problem. Bayside replaced the water pump and everything is good now. Great prices. Fast. Available - no 2-4 week waits. Highly recommend read more

Fast and friendly service. State inspections done while you wait and quickly. It's a breeze.

I've been coming here for 10 years for all my oil changes, inspections, and tires. I trust this business. They are affordable and I've never had any issues. They offer coffee and other refreshments which I think is so nice. Awesome customer service too! read more

Always a pleasure to have great service with a smile! Been coming here since 1988! Thank you Bayside auto for being there for our community! Brad the service manager will be truly missed as he recently lost his battle with cancer. It really saddened my heart to learn of his passing yesterday. He was the original manager that kept us coming back all these years. I will continue to bring my vehicles here as the new manager David introduced himself yesterday. Good luck David you have big shoes to fill but I know you got this! read more

good service, reasonably priced . you can't ask for better. The service writer drove me home and in couple of hours she picked me back up to get my car. Thanks Bayside read more

My car had a flat and no spare. I called AAA and had them tow the car to Bayside Auto and they were able to determine the tire could not be patched and were able to obtain a new tire to mount and install. Great service and timely. Thanks read more

We packed up the car in New York heading to Va Beach- sunglasses, flip flops, suntan lotion, floppy hats- jumped in car -Wah Wah- car dead- hmmm -(first time ever) family hollering I left doors and tailgate open while I was packing car-- ( no) - got it jumped, headed south- kept car running for 7 hours- did tag team thing for eating and potty breaks. Got across the bridge and pulled into Bayside- SO HELPFUL! tested my battery- pronounced it on life support, located replacement, stated cost, replaced it, and we were on our way again. THANK YOU Bayside! read more

Service was fast and always reliable. I have taken my car here for a little over a year for regular maintenance and it has always been an easy experience. They don't try to upsell you, or do unnecessary things to charge you more. I'll keep going to them for my auto maintenance needs! read more

Realized I needed an inspection along with oil change, called on a Friday, they got me in on Monday. Quick service, good pricing and always honest, hard to find that these days!! Bayside tire is always my go to!! read more

Dropped my car off this morning and was given a ride home which I really appreciated. They completed the work in a timely fashion and even said I didn't need my tires rotated which I had also asked them to do. I have been using them for a few years now and am very happy them. Highly recommend! read more

Took my car in for a State Inspection and everyone there was very friendly and accommodated my time constraints! I would definately choose this business for any and all my automotive needs. read more

Disappointed. I got my vehicle fixed here about a year ago for the opposite door handle. I went back to see if I could get my other door handle fixed but they were addiment on wanting my service. Your loss. Over priced anyway. read more

had a misfiring engine in 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee. They said I had a bad coil. Recommended replacing all the coils and plugs. had an oil change as well. Almost $1100. plus almost $31 for using a credit card. Would've been nice to know I could've used a check book and saved $31. I'll know if there is a next time. FYI Same work at Jeep dealer was quoted at $750. I'll know next time. Always been going there but this bothered me a bit. Live and learn. read more

Needed a boat trailer inspection. Never been to Bayside before but they are close to where I store my boat trailer. Called made an appointment for 3 PM about 3 business days out. I showed up about 10 minutes early for my appointment they came out and greeted me, immediately did the inspection. Didn't Nickle & dime me over some subjective points just mentioned a few things that could be improved upon which I was aware and put on the inspection sticker (my trailer met the min requirements but some inspection stations use the manual subjective areas to gin up work - not Bayside) - very professional group. I was in and out in less than 15 minutes. As I live on the west side of Norfolk, my only regret is that Bayside is not closer to me as I would be a frequent customer for all my future vehicle requirements based on my experience on January 4th, 2021. read more

I was visiting the area for work and during my commute, my car's Service Engine Soon light came on and the engine started stuttering. I brought my car in after seeing their positive reviews and was greeted with friendly service right away. The crew there is warm, knowledgeable, and upfront about everything. As a female, I almost always expect to get swindled at a garage, but they were amiable and went out of their way to check every nook and cranny and gave me some great paternal-style advice for what to do if the car started stuttering again. Of course, the car decided to behave while we were there, so I'm still in the dark, but regardless, just based on the service I received, I 100% recommend Bayside Tire & Auto! read more

Bayside Tire has been our go-to  Shop for many years. From inspections  to significant repairs, Bayside has gone out of their way to be helpful and resourceful. They are friendly, honest and knowledgeable. Consistent good service.  Reliably good results. Thank you, J.D. , Sam and Brad. read more

Fast service done right. Bayside is the local secret for care care/repair. Sometimes they are short staffed and claim to have limited time available on their schedule, but they've never failed to squeeze me in and get it done right the first time. read more

We have been going to Bayside Tire and Auto for years First it started out of convenience, then we developed trust, and then we became part of the local Baylake community. Its comforting to walk into a local neighborhood business where they k ow your name, your family, your car and its history. Its comforting to send your teenager down the street with his first car to have a conversation or get an inspection knowing they will teach him a bit and get the job done for him without you needing to look over his shoulder. Sometimes I need to take my car into the dealer for warranty reasons. or price. But for the most part its Bayside Tire and Auto or another local business down the street that my family happily supports! Trustworthy, They always do a great job for us, Support local, Support small business! read more

Paid $283 for power steering belt and power steering tensioner pulley to be replaced. 3 weeks later, had to get the tensioner pulley replaced because it was old and torn up inside due to the old belt being tangled up inside of it. Hmmm. I paid for a new tension pulley and didn't get one. Manager refused to speak to me and one of the other employees called me ignorant. Told me to leave the property. read more

Just another place to to take money from the old people. Front brakes 200.00 The right brakes and rotor brand new. From previous shop Drivers side had half the pad still 400 miles previous shop last time it was inspected. One year ago drove car 400 miles in a year and brakes were shot Hmmmm. Never again read more

Fast service. Some one took the time to educate me on all the changes that came with the service I requested. Friendly staff.

I have been a huge fan of Bayside Tire and Auto for years and apparently something major has changed. My son brought his car in for an inspection and I got a call back telling us that the inspection failed because of two issues. My son got on the phone and attempted to find out exactly what was going on with a steering linkage issue that was replaced about 2 years ago. When we went in to pick up the car he more or less was verbally assaulted by the service manager stating I'm going to try to explain this to you since you spoke to me before like an idiot. I heard the entire conversation on my son's side and he was very respectful but was interested in why a part that was replaced not long ago then would fail his inspection. They would not tell him where the part failed. In the past the staff has been extremely courteous and honest with us but now I question their operation and feel as though there must be a change of ownership because now they cannot be trusted. Rudeness is one thing. People have bad days. Deception and dishonesty is quite another thing. It's a shame when a good business goes in the wrong direction. read more

First visit was great, staff was professional, helpful and friendly. Today's visit was like I walked into a whole different shop. Staff was grumpy and snarky and not professional. Totally dismissed one of my issues. Should have guessed by the customers treatment ahead of me. Thought I had finally found a reasonable local shop. read more

I noticed I was losing pressure in one of my tires so I called a little after 3:30 on a Friday and the lady wouldn't tell me yes or no if they could look at it or not, but told me I could come in and ask Jim. I got there and told her, "hey I'm the guy with the leak" and she starts fussing at me about how she told me to come straight here. "I did. I'm doing what you just told me to do." "Yeah! Like a half an hour ago!" It's right around 4:00. The place says they close at 5. "You told me to come in and ask somebody." So I looked at the other guy in the lobby behind a different computer and he goes, "Well he's finishing up the last one right now and he's got things to do." I've never walked into a business and felt like such an inconvenience to the employees. I've had good experiences almost every other time I've gone, but holy crap! Now I'm looking for suggestions on where I can get a tire patched. I'm not coming back to a business that clearly didn't want to be bothered. read more

Work is solid but they will nickle and dime you to death of you let them. A tad to expensive for my taste. read more

Walked in there just now to request an air pressure check as I can't seem to get the light to go off. The woman said "Can you check it yourself, you're gonna have to wait about a half hour." I'll never be back and I'll make sure to tell anyone who asks about this place to go somewhere else..or just do it yourself. Useless. read more

My family and I have been using Brad for probably close to 15 years. The level of service you get REALLY depends on who you are dealing with. I needed an oil change 4 weeks ago, and when I called to ask if I could bring my car in on a Friday evening for them to work on first thing Saturday, the guy who answered the phone was slow and really didnt seem to understand. I've take my car up to Bayside EVERY Friday for service on Saturdays for every. single. oil change I've needed. But this guy seriously couldnt understand what I wanted to do! He basically said that no, I couldnt do that. I called back two weeks later, and the woman I got understood right away and said that absolutely I could bring my car in Friday evening. She was polite, friendly, and knowledgeable. Several months ago I took my car to Bayside to get the oil changed, and when I drove it off the lot, the Air Bag warning light was on in my dash. As soon as I got home I called Bayside and the guy I spoke to said basically "You'll have to bring it back, we'll have to hook it up to the diagnostics machine, and yes there will be a charge for that." What?! In highsight, I shouldnt have drive it home and just turned around and taken it back to them. The Air Bag light is still on, several oil changes later. If you need a shop in a pinch, these guys WILL get the work done. But now that I've moved to Norfolk and this place isnt just across the street anymore, I wont be going out of my way to see them. read more

The elderly woman there is SO RUDE and dismissive. Asked about getting an oil change and scheduling an appointment so I can get a round about time to have my car back and she said, rudely and like I'm half-witted, "if you drop it off in the morning, you'll get it by end of day." I thanked her and told her I need to know more or less when I will have it back, that I can't be w/o my vehicle for a day bc I also have responsibilities... and she basically said well too bad, if I want it done, I'll have to leave it and just wait for them to call when it's done. How can you trust that? She is awful. I won't go there again. It's the second time I've experienced that w her--and she treats everyone like that. Like you, the customer, are a HUGE inconvenience. read more

Totally forgot that I needed to do my state inspection this month. My normal shop was booked until the end of the month, in fact everywhere was pretty booked. Called up Bayside Tire and Auto based off reviews and got an appointment for 3 days later! Was in and out, very professional and nice staff! I'll definitely give them a second chance! Support local businesses!! read more

I woke up to a flat tire this am. I changed my tire to the spare and was in a pinch for time. I called the guys at Bayside and they told me to swing by and drop the tire off (it was a low profile tubeless tire) and they would fix it. Real nice guys, made time during a busy schedule to fit me in and get the tire fixed and re mounted! Great local work center!!! read more

I decided to stop here for the first time for an alignment and asked the availability they had. Instead of being told if they had time or not, the guy at the desk had the nerve to question me and explain what an alignment is. I know exactly what it is and being a woman doesn't mean I don't know. I also got told I might not need one. I know exactly what my car needs and it's not his job or anyone's at a shop to question a possible customer. Won't be going back! read more

These guys are top notch! The day I was bringing my 11 year old SUV in, the battery died. End of life for it. I called to inform these guys and they said no problem and arranged for a tow truck to come get it. During the state inspection they found a couple issues...brake lights going bad and parking brake not tight enough. They fixed these items for a super reasonable price. I'll be coming back here for sure and have a point to tell my friends how great they are! read more

Customer Service not great. Whenever I had to call or talk to someone the employees always gave the impression they were doing me a favor. I guess that's tolerated just because of your location and the need or mechanics in the area. Workmanship and prices were fine. The last straw for me was when i had extremely loud squealing breaks. I paid to have them looked at. At first "Bruce" said maybe I should check with the person who put my break pads on. Well I've spent a lot of money at Bayside over the last 5 to 6 years from Tires, to breaks, to breakpads. When i told him i got them there he changed the story and said it was just normal and nothing he could do about it. Meanwhile my breaks are worse. No way is this normal. I called to schedule an appointment and it was just after 4:00 so the lady said I would get a call the next day. Never did. I'll find a new place. read more

I skipped a lot of places but found this place by a friend that recommended them. They were great and very courteous. I was told it would be an hr to plug my tire as there were some ahead of me. They delivered right on time. No surprises- great service-thank you! read more

I've been dealing with Bayside Tire and Auto for a few years now. I've always had great service. JD and Bruce have always been so friendly and informative. Just recently I took my car in for repair on a slow leak, tire rotation and an overdue inspection. I dropped it off on Wednesday around lunch time for a Thursday appt. JD said they might get it done that day but couldn't promise. He did say Bruce performed miracles sometimes. Well, two hours later I got a call and my car was ready. Not to mention, a very reasonable price. Now that's what I call five star service. Thanks Bayside Tire and Auto. read more
