Someone tried to steal my truck and did some damage in the process. I had Gearhead Auto do the repairs and they did a great job. I would definitely recommend them to others. Jolyn kept me informed of what was happening during the process. She really cares about the client and getting the work done properly.

Had engine issues on my sons truck and although we were unable to fix the issue, it wasn't for lack of trying on Gearheads part. Very thorough and responsive, as well as clear communication between Jolyn, the mechanic and myself. A great shop, I won't hesitate to use them on future issues!

The Gearhead team were great to deal with. They provided me with a firm quote, and stuck to it. Booking was easy, repairs were done on time. They also provided me a detailed inspection report via email, which I wasn't expecting but was a nice touch. I would recommend them to friends.

We're swift and courteous and accommodating. They were able to outsource affordable service they don't do right on site.

These guys and gal are the real thing. They know what your non automotive descriptions of the issue are and super honest. you know upfront what your costs will be and the emailed review of the work and what to watch for future was a bonus.

Rob and his staff were a pleasure to work with. Updating me with texts and emails with the vehicle issues before doing any work. Jolyn was very courteous and pleasant on the phone. In fact, she organized to get my vehicle from another shop in town. Totally a huge help for me for me as I live out of town.The pricing is fair, the repairs were done in a timely manner and to my satisfaction. The experience was above and beyond my expectations. 10/10

She has the knowledge of what you are talking about and that makes the process even easier!!I will continue to use Gearhead in the future, and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great all round experience!

Been going and seeing Rob and his team for as long as they have been open. Never have they tried to sell me something that I didn't need like other places might. Always greeted with a smile. Estimates have always been very close to the final price of my bill. My last visit in was scheduled for a Friday of a long weekend and expected to be -40 weather. I stopped in unexpectedly on Thursday so they would have time to order parts if needed, they looked at my car, diagnosed it and sent me on my way. Came back the next day and they fixed my vehicle within the time frame that they mentioned. My car is now running amazing!As a young woman it means the world to me to be able to go into a shop with little car knowledge and not get the runaround. Rob has never done anything to my vehicle without asking me first. He also mentions how soon things should be done based on severity.I have also phoned them when buying a new vehicle to see what possible mechanical failures typically arise in said vehicle.Will forever recommend them to anyone I know!

I took my truck in because check engine light was on and truck kept stalling. And they took the time to find the problem and fix it which was a bad wire to the ecm . Truck has run fine ever since. I will definitely take my truck back if need anything else

This garage gave excellent service. I drive a BMW and they were able to find a mistake that a previous specialist garage had made. They fixed it and did the original work I came in for. All for a very reasonable price. 😊😊

I've taken my truck to the gear head team twice, and from the front desk to the guys in the back they have gone above and beyond. With a full report of your vehicle including pictures of the parts that they are replacing. The prices are fair and quotes on time to do the work are almost exact. Definitely recommend gear head if you want good, honest work done on your vehicle and a shop that wont screw you around.

Gearhead is always very thorough in any appointment you book. Their use of videos/photos to show you the issues your vehicle may have is very helpful for a person with no vehicle knowledge.
