Rated 5.0 stars on Google. Here's what your neighbours say about John and the team — and we'd love to add your review to the list.
I took my Hyundai to Qualicum Beach Tire and Brakes when my check engine light came on. They did a thorough inspection and a minor repair and the issue was resolved — they cleared the code and the light hasn't come back on. I'm very happy with their service and professionalism, and would highly recommend them to anyone needing car repairs.
John is probably one of the most honest guys to deal with. I've known him for years. Trustworthy and does super work.
John & Dave have been servicing my Mazda 3, Silverado 1500 & my Subaru Outback for the past 2½ years. No BS, no surprises — just done right! They even replaced the catalytic converter in my 30-ft Class A motorhome, and this week Dave is working on the 5.7 Mercruiser in my 24-ft Bayliner. I think you could call them a “one stop repair shop.”
Took my Dodge Ram 1500 in to John for an oil and air filter change plus a full service scan, and I couldn't be happier. He went through everything to make sure the truck was running right — no upselling, no runaround, just honest, thorough work. You can tell John's been doing this a long time; he knows these trucks inside and out and takes the time to do it properly. Fair price, friendly service, and the kind of local shop you actually want to give your business to. I'll be bringing all my vehicles here from now on. Highly recommend!
