Samson Auto Service

My friend sent me down here. I needed to have my rims and front tires changed a.s.a.p. cause i hit into a curve at high speed and my front left rim damaged, and it shaked due to the abrasion even though i drove slowly to the autoshop. I checked price with Canadian Tire, Foutain Tire, other auto service places, the minimum quote for the fix (plus waiting) is $ 300 plus tax. Canadian Tire is at least $ 400 + tax and potencially more labour.
I freaked out, told the owner that I’m finacially not ok right now, If they charge big money for check up i ll goodbye them. They calmed me down immediately, After checking, they told me there is no need to change the tires, he is happy to order a used good condition rim for me, $ 45 get it for today, he charged me $ 15 to replace the rim. Plus, he used tape to glue back my bumper a bit so it’s tighter cause I told him i didn’t want to order new bumper yet. (bumper is off a bit)
So the expierence is amazing. The shop entrance is small and crude. The service is great and the owner is honest and kind !!!

I have gone to Samson more than 20 years ago. Ken is very reliable and honest.

I have been taking my family’s cars there for the past 15 yrs .
The owner is Ken and he is probably one of the most honest mechanics I have come across. Ken has over 25 years of experience .They keep their overheads low so they can keep their rates reasonable.
Dealer costs are so high after the warranty runs out, and not everyone can can afford to take it back to the dealer.
The place is a no frills basic shop, but he runs a tight shop and road tests everything after any repairs.
They are always busy, so that is saying a lot as a lot of his customers are repeat customers.

I have been taking my vehicles for servicing to Samson’s for the past 4 years. They are very reasonable prices, complimentary brake inspection, and will not try to nickel and dime the customers like what has happened to me in the past at other automotive repair shops. They also provide loaner vehicles if you have to leave your vehicle for a big job that would take more than one day so i can still go to work, groceries etc. They are usually finished up with my car in just a few hours or less.
