They saw me right away, spent 40 minutes testing the tire, and determined that the problem was that the tire simply had reached the end of its tread life, rather than needing a leak repair. They charged me nothing for the 40 minutes they spent. I was able to exchange the car at the local rental office after explaining the tread problem. Thanks, Cliff's!

My family has always had a great experience with Cliff's Auto. We hadn't used them in a while as no…read moreneed to. Mid-August we were about use our Toyota truck to tow our camper on a long trip. I suspected my brakes were at their life end. I called them with a tight window to get it done and they were able to schedule me in less than a week. They did a full inspection and found some additional legit issues that had they not caught them, I would have likely been regretting the trip with a breakdown. Ended up getting the serpentine belt done and front joints on 4WD done. Recent reviews concerned me but my experience was great, they got everything done in time, and the long trip was flawless. They waived the inspection fee as well. Can't speak to others experience but mine has always been good here. Been using them since 2019.

New Garfield Auto performed a complete brake job on our van…read more1.5 years ago (21,000 miles). They replaced calipers with rebuilt ones (why not replace with new calipers??)in which one caliper failed and caused premature wear on the pads and rotors. The pads were worn down to the metal forcing us to need another complete brake job on the rear brakes again (in 21,000 miles). They also did not properly run the brake lines or bleed them correctly. We attempted to work with Garfield Auto to come to a resolution but they were not interested in helping us. Very poor customer service and poor workmanship. I highly advise avoiding this Auto service center.

My wife took our Jeep Commander in for some front end work recently. They did do a good job on the…read morerepairs and it was relatively inexpensive, but it was their putting everything back together that has me extremely t'd off right now. When the tires were put back on the lug nuts were tightened down so tight that they were nearly impossible to get off. Actually, one is so stripped I'm going to have to take it to A DIFFERENT SHOP to get removed. They obviously used the air ratchet to torque the bolts down. How do I know this, because I'm a 215lb adult male who had to stand on the freaking lug wrench and bounce to get them to turn ever so slightly. I shouldn't have to stand on the freaking lug wrench and bounce to get them to turn, I should simply be able to use arm muscle and body weight alone to remove the lug nut. What if my wife were had a flat in the middle of a no-cell reception area and had to remove the tire herself? She wouldn't have been able to that's for damned sure, and she should be able. Over tightening lug nuts can strip bolts, weaken the threads which can cause the wheel to come loose or off, or warp the brake rotor causing brake failure. All of which I'm sure Garfield Auto Center knows, but I mean we were a customer right, maybe what they do know they think that we don't know, maybe they think we will take our vehicle in for them to fix when this happens. I won't. My wife won't, again. And I'm hoping this review will cause you to think before you go to them. Maybe I should give them the benefit of the doubt, maybe it was a new guy working on the Jeep, maybe they were in a hurry to get to lunch or end their day and just used the air gun. Well, maybe my wife was taking my children to Grand Rapids for the day and lost a tire on US131 doing 75MPH. My families safety is more important than their excuse. I won't be back, and I won't recommend them to my friends, family, coworkers, or even my worst enemies.

I called to complain and the manager told me they did what they thought was more important and what I asked for didn't matter. Never again.
