Courteous and helpful service. A nice clean shop to wait in, and I've never had to wait long. A great local business to patronize.

What an outstanding experience. From our first call to the wrap-up, everything was so smooth with…read morethe team at Perfection Tire. Bryson and Les offered an incredible customer experience and did everything they could to get us what we needed (while our family was on vacation) and get us back on the road safely. Pricing was competitive, the tires are reliable and the attention to service, second to none! Well done.

Been using these guys for years and it's always something. They do my girlfriend's oil changes when…read moreI'm not around or don't have the time and her truck always has less bolts on it than when it went in. Also noticed they are not changing the filter since the last time I changed it and I'm pretty sure using conventional oil instead of the synthetic that I use and adamantly tell her to request. Could she be forgetting to relay the message? Possibly but not likely. My truck is a whole different story. Took it to them to put pressure sensors on my winter wheels and right off the bat, they charged me double what was quoted. Then when they program the new sensors, they take over an hour and somehow unprogram my original sensors in the summer wheels. Then of course they tell me I need new sensors in the summer wheels so I just purchase an additional 4 which I immediately had problems with the programming and stop working within the year. Management takes no responsibility and claims that I only had one or two sensors replaced and wants me to get receipts from last year and bring my winter wheels in which they retract when I say, "sure I'll go get them". Then they act like I'm wasting their time taking up a bay when they never did the job I paid for in the first place. Long story short, they are either incompetent because they don't know what they are doing or scamming because they do know what they are doing. From the way they treat my girlfriend and the other women that I've seen go in there, not to mention the nonsense way they went about the sensor issue, I'd say their a snake oil selling shop and recommend just going to Les Schwab down the street.

Check engine light was flashing in my truck at the start of my 75 mile commute home. I managed to…read moreget the truck up the hill, and called Ponderay Autocare the following morning. They were pretty stacked, so it was a few days before I could drop it off. In the end, I was quoted about $1,500 to replace the intake manifold, spark plugs and attendant wires. The repair took 24-36 hours to get the truck back, and just in time: It is our only 4wd vehicle and there was a big snow storm on the way. Well, a week later, I'm making the exact same 75 mile drive home and sure enough, the truck starts exhibiting the same symptoms for which I'd brought it in; engine misfiring, and check engine light flashing. I brought it back the following morning, and though it was another day or so before they could look at it, it turned out to be a bad spark plug wire and there was no charge for the repeat service. It has been running beautifully since. On the whole, communications here can be clipped and terse, but it also means no nonsense, and I've detected no underlying dishonesty from anyone here. They're very straight up, and very busy, which I consider good things for a mechanic shop. The business itself is pretty small, with two garage bays and a small, closet sized office. Parking can be a little tricky, and unless you know what you're looking for, the business can be a little tricky to spot the first time around. They're very close to the Hoot Owl Cafe, which is about a 5-10 minute walk down the highway, so you can at least grab some quality grub if you're waiting for diagnosis or repair. I live all the way up in the Naples/Bonners Ferry area, but if I've got vehicle trouble again, I'm driving the extra miles to bring it here.

Great Service, friendly employees, goes above and beyond. Dropped our vehicle off to us when it was…read morefinished!
