Brought a vehicle in for pre purchase inspection. They missed that the thermostat was stuck open, rear brakes were worn out (cause of squeaking) and a/c did not work. Perhaps simply complacency but still sucked for me as the buyer, I could have bartered the price with the required repairs.. for a 5 star shop I'm unimpressed.

If you drives RHD, forget about John to be nice. It’s just ridiculous. Got referred here, so I stopped by in S&M Auto for quote to change oil pan gasket on my older Landcruiser. First two questions as everywhere else: “Is it Diesel? Is it RHD?”Boom: “I don’t work on RHD anymore.” What a shame! :(

John and his staff have been taking care of me for a few years and a couple of cars. They have been brilliant, taking great care of my car, providing the best service, always calm & knowledgeable and responding quickly to my concerns. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

Highly recommended. John and his team do excellent work. We had been lax about regular maintenance: there was a chirping sound and the air conditioning wasn’t working. John fixed those issues and more. Now we make an annual appointment for a check up.

I am so happy that I was referred to S&M for my car repairs. John gives honest advice and was very accommodating. He took the time to explain what was happening with my vehicle and showed me what was worked on when I came to pick my car up.

I recently had my 2015 Nissan Murano serviced at S & M Auto and also got my full brakes done. From beginning to finish, John and his team were professional and friendly. He is one of the most honest mechanics I've ever dealt with and keeps

Thank you John! I had a genuinely amazing experience. Joining the shop and booking a time was easy and smooth. Took my car (Matrix 2008) for a full inspection and regular service and was ready to pay the full price ($400 - $500)! John did

I am Very happy with S & M and my recent experience. They replaced my rear shocks on my Mazda. I called in the morning and they had me on the road again the same day in the afternoon. They also pulled out a drywall screw and fixed my slow

John and his team are the best! John always tells you the truth and never tries to upsell parts or service. I first came for a second opinion to replace all inner and outer tie rod ends. S&M only replaced the ones that were worn out and I

Above and beyond service. John is amazing and has made sure my 1992 dodge caravan is always tuned and working it’s best as well making sure it will last as long as possible ! Also when I freak out and get nervios about a little noise John

John is absolutely amazing. I had a problem with my 12 years old Mazda Tribute, John quickly discovered what was wrong with it, explained it to me and he didn't even charge me anything since he said it was just a minor fix and that he'll

Last week I had one of my tire leaking air and other shop cannot find where is the problem. Since my work place close to S&M, I drop my car to the shop. John is a very nice guy, he helped me to found the possible reason and provide good

Never over-charges and always honest. He has told me several times when there is nothing wrong with my car, when other mechanics had told me to replace various parts and fluids, but he told me they looked fine and sure enough they were.

I visited here a few times for advice and I am very happy with John's recommendations. I also had engine oil change here a couple weeks ago. It seems like they only use high quality German oil, which I am very happy with it so far. My

John and his crew are the best in the city! Honest advice, issues clearly explained....no BS! I actually went to S&M for an oil change on my MINI and told John that I thought that I also needed my brakes done too. It turns out that I

Hands down... one of the best auto repair shop experiences I have ever had! Courtesy car. Excellence in service & professionalism to the max. John and Kevin experienced over 20 years. They have helped local rock bands (A Fish Called

Have been there twice - once for a major repair - and can't say enough good things about John & his team. Super friendly, great at what they do and won't overcharge you. He is busy (because he's so popular) so book in advance! 100/10

I have trusted S&M with my cars since 1994. John, the owner is great. They know what they are doing and never over charge or do more than is needed. They get my car back to me when they say they will. Totally trust them with my car.

Came for the reviews, wasn't disappointed at all so I'm leaving mine! I came to John with my Honda Accord 2004 which needed a TON of repairs and maintenance. I knew it would cost me and John was really straight forward about it, I

John is a lovely human who operates on kindness -- I am a new client and he went out of his way to look at my car despite his busy schedule - quick, friendly, and knowledgeable service. I will take my car here forever and a day.

John is as honest a mechanic as you will find. I've been bringing my car here for years and am always impressed with the great service. These guys really know what they are doing and I always feel that I am being charged fairly.

John is awesome! Had my car done in no time. Even helped me with a rattling problem in coming from my exhaust for free! His prices are about par but the service value makes it worth the price. I will definitely be returning!

I have bringing my cars here for over 20 years, and now drive almost an hour to get here; the quality of service and workmanship has been that good. I can not even begin to imagine looking for a different mechanic

These guys are top notch and my go-to mechanic in Vancouver. Trustworthy, reliable and reasonably priced, they don't over-sell you on anything you don't need. 100% reccomend to all my friends and family.

John was an absolute pleasure to deal with. S&M only conducted works that were approved by myself first, and only did those that I requested. John even pre-warned of a potential issue that could arise

John is honest and reliable. One time I asked him about a car I was considering and he said “it would be great for me, but not so good for you”. Hard to find that kind of honesty! He’s a total keeper.

John & Kevin provide great service and are very honest! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone! It’s also worth noting that they have the cutest customer greeter in the form of Carl the Boxer.

John and his crew are simply amazing. From the first moment speaking with John on the phone, to the discussion of prices, which were precise and not estimated...the entire experience was perfect.

Always a great experience here. John and his team are incredible at what they do. Reliable service, never overcharges, and super easy to talk to about what is going on. Highly highly recommend.

John and his team are absolutely fantastic. I have been going here for years and don't even get stressed anymore when something is wrong with my car because I know I can rely on A&M Auto.

Honest, reliable, quick, and friendly. What more can you ask for? So glad I found John and his team years ago and have had such good care and service ever since. Highly recommend them!

Just got my car serviced from Kevin. The entire process was very easy and Kevin properly identified the issue and was able to fix it quickly and proficiently. Would highly recommend!

John and his team are top notch and very reliable mechanics. They helped identify the problem, took great care of my car and got it fixed right up. Couldn’t recommend this shop more!

After being coerced into replacing some fluids and being told to replace all of our brake pads by Mr. Lube, we came here for a second opinion and they did not disappoint!

Awesome service experience. Just did a basic oil change and brake fluid flush, but it was quick, friendly and we chatted about Porsches. Not much more you can ask for!

John is reliable, fair, quick and efficient! My vehicle always feels safe and secur Lea get service. Plus shop dog Karl is always nice to visit with.

John is helpful, friendly, and very efficient. We've found our new local auto service.

Very friendly and professional service- I cannot recommend highly enough!

Excellent service and very friendly community oriented repair shop

Awesome garage. Trust the quality of work and service here.
