Gripp is a small business that I love going to.. It really makes the effort to take care of its customers, and I will continue to be a strong supporter.

I was referred to GRiP Tire and Auto by a friend and was incredibly happy with my experience. I was in need of new tires for my vehicle, and was given two options based on performance and affordability. This allowed me to choose a tire that met my travel needs, while also ensuring I wasn’t gauging the bank. The employees that I spoke to were very polite and made the process very easy. They worked with my schedule and were able to get my vehicle in quickly! I was shocked when I picked up my car and it was vacuumed (it was not a pretty sight beforehand). I would definitely recommend them for all your auto needs, as I feel they are trustworthy and respectful!! Very happy with the results!

Recently came for a seasonal tire change (8 tires/ 4 rims) and they did an amazing job in just over an hour. They also did a wheel alignment which completely changed the feel of the car. Very friendly staff as well. Will return in the future.

My wife and I were big supporters of Talisman Tire, such a great group of individuals (Looking at you Mike and Lee) who always put their customers first. What I really like about them is that they didn't oversell work. They would inform what issues took top priority and what work needed to be done in the future. I respect that so much.This week, our vehicle had a sudden breakdown, and they came to my rescue. They towed us to their fine establishment and quickly repaired the issue within 2 days. It would have been 1, but they had to wait for parts. ON TOP of this they washed and vacuumed our vehicle, and when I said I was going to take transit to retrieve the vehicle offered to pick me up at home. Just fantastic service all around!I am so happy to share that the changeover to Gripp Tire has maintained and continues to demonstrate the top-level work ethic and customer service. I won't get into details, but how Gripp Auto handled a recent situation was just above and beyond, and I can't rave more about how great this auto body shop is. Thank you, guys!Highly recommended. 5 stars!

In the middle of multiple appointments I developed a flat tire...on the rim flat tire! I dropped in and although very busy they fit me in and fixed my tire.I have gone off and on over the years to this location. It is new owners but they give exceptional customer service. I will definitely be back.

I dropped in because my tire kept losing air. They took me right away & took care of it for a reasonable cost. Mike was very helpful, informative. All great! Will probably bring all my business here because they do everything also. Went because I’d heard how honest they are from a FB group I belong to.

Ruby Jiang

I chose to have my car been serviced here because it has the highest Google review scores of the auto shops within 10 km near my place. The service was as good as the dealership or even better. I finally don't have to pay so much at the dealers. Unexpectedly, not only a print-out report was handed to me after the service, I also received a digital report with all details and pictures. I will definitely go back in the future.

This place is great. Brought my wife’s car here when her tire got low and I couldn’t find a leak. They took her car and couldn’t find a leak either in the bubble tub. They took the wheel off. Cleaned the debris off the rim, put a new stem on. reinstalled it and it’s holding air fine they checked all the other tires too. Gave me my car back and didn’t charge a dime. Great honest place to take your vehicle!

Thanks Grip Tires!!

Took my car in for a brake inspection and was expecting the usual up sell and was pleasantly surprised when Mike advised the brake pads were at 70% and was even more surprised when I didn’t get a huge bill. Mike is a very knowledgeable guy and I would trust him with all my vehicle repairs.

Laurie Popil

01:12 01 Aug 24

Service is always good! I am never told i need something that I don't.I am always given a timeline for routine maintenance that is non Urgent.I needed brake work done.The parts were ordered received and installed all in the same day.Everyone is always friendly, courteous willing and able to answer my questions. The car wash and vacuum is an added bonus that I really appreciate!

I had just purchased a used truck and needed to get the snow tires off and a new set of rubber on. My problem was I needed it done yesterday and that’s where Mike and staff stepped in. They didn’t say no even though they were booked solid. Instead they asked if I could leave the truck with them and they would get to it as the opportunity presented itself. Later the same say Mike called and it was complete. Many thanks and I’ll see you when my wife and I need to swap out the summers for winters. Y’all are the best, many thanks.

Recently had my oil changed at A drive-through business which didn’t go so well. Let’s say they didn’t take responsibility. I took my vehicle into Grip Auto as I was heading to Kamloops within two days. They got me in as an emergency appointment sand looked over the vehicle. They fixed the problem and gave me a courtesy car to use. I was so grateful as the last thing I needed was to get stuck on the Coquihalla by myself. The front staff are knowledgable and Lee is an absolute gem. Thank you so much!

John Ro

I waited for a few experiences at this shop before posting to make sure it wasn’t just a first impression that was outstanding. Each and every time I go in I am amazed by the excellent customer service (Lee & Mike), the time they take to inform and explain about the issues experiences with the vehicle, and the comfy waiting area. They have given me a loaner vehicle when the repair would span over the weekend and offered to drop me at home when the vehicle is in just for the afternoon. Their vehicle reports are comprehensive, and from what I can tell their prices are reasonable. All around great shop and I would highly recommend without hesitation.
