Boyd’s Tire & Service

These guys are the only honest mechanics in the area. They diagnosed an ongoing issue with my truck and didn’t charge me a thing. Their markups are a bit high but they make up for it with quality work.

I have gone to this location several times over the last few years and have always been happy with the work. They have always been about to schedule an appointment almost immediately and the work is completed quickly and correctly the first time. It’s nice to have a shop that gets the work done quickly and doesn’t twist your arm trying to up-​sell services or repairs you didn’t ask for! I definitely recommend them for any basic repair or maintenance.

Have gone to this location for years. Purchased 2 sets of tires this month. The same crew has been there for a long time… that says something in itself! The prices were fair, it was no hassle as they ordered the tires I wanted, used great care mounting them on new wheels, and done on time… no hassles! What more could you ask??? They also do full car repair. Sent a friend with a weird electrical problem on his daughters car, the fixed it for under 300 bucks. The friend was ready to buy her a different car over the problem as he didn’t know where to go. Happy camper they fixed his hard problem! They’re my go to guys. Call them first if u can… they’re so good they’re busy!

Boyd’s Northgate Goodyear has been my «go-​to» place for auto service for many years. Beyond all of the basics — new tires, oil changes, tune-​ups, battery replacements, etc., I’ve also trusted Boyd’s to trouble-​shot «problems with my cars and to identify what’s wrong. For example — needed to replace the ignition switch on my Jeep, odd noises from the front end of my Buick, etc. I’ve always found them to be honest and deserving of my trust — they never some to «up-​sell» you. They are good at pointing out things that you should keep on eye on and things that you might want to consider having repaired in the future but you never get the «this has gotta be done right now» kind of reports. Ed, Todd and Mike are the regulars and they got to know my family — especially when the kids were still at home and we had 4 cars to maintain, we were probably there fairly frequently. Overall — good reliable, dependable service and excellent warranties.

I went Boyd’s twice in the past couple months. The first visit was to have my oil changed (I found a good coupon in the Val-​Pak). Service was good, location is convenient to shopping so you don’t have to sit around if you don’t want to. Price was good. With the coupon, my oil change came to 25 dollars. I would get my oil changed there again, if I had a coupon.
Second visit was for a new set of tires. I had talked to one of the service managers who told me he had set of tires for my car and it would cost me roughly 350 dollars. I was stoked because I didn’t want to go over 400. After I gave him the okay to put them on, he called me about ten mins. later to let me know they were actually the wrong kind of tires and the correct tires would cost 450. I was pretty bummed and little pissed off that he didn’t have his info correct in the first place. I was already extremely untrusting of Auto Service places, so part of me thought that maybe it was some sort of tactic they use, possibly on single women.
I will stick to basic car maintnence at this place, but anything more serious, I would probably go somewhere else.
