Great service. I had purchased new tires from them recently. I subsequently had a tire sensor that was leaking. They fixed the leak and sparkled up the tires at no charge without an appointment. Highly recommended.

Wonderful service at Grip Tire and Auto! They go above and beyond to fix my vehicle, and even add an extra wash and vacuum. I feel very confident in the advice they give me, in their professional staff, and the fabulous service work. Thanks for making my experience so great, keep up the good work!

I came in this weekend to get my car inspected, they did a full inspection, and they did an oil change, rotated my tires and fixed some broken lights. The service was amazing! Will be back for sure in the future!

Replaced radiator and support and lower engine covers.We always receive good and courteous service the many times we have used their service. We feel that they are dependable and comfortable with the diagnoses and work done.We generally can have a courtesy car and when we pickup our van it has been washed and vacuumed. What a nice perk!

The whole team at GRiP is phenomenal. Years ago I brought my dying Corolla to them to see what was wrong with the engine. After examining they told me that it would be quite an expensive repair, and instead of pushing me toward giving them the money, they advised me to purchase a new car (charging me nothing for the visit) as the engine was in such bad shape.Flash forward to today, where I brought in my current car which finally needed a new set of tires. The guys at Mobil 1 down the street told me my serpentine belt was going, and a Mr. Lube in Langley said my front brakes were getting low and advised replacing them. I wasn't experiencing any issues with either, but I figured I'd have GRiP take a look just in case. They quickly replaced the tires, and looked at the belt free of charge and once again honestly told me it didn't need replacing at this time, and that the brakes were looking fantastic. It would have been easy for them to lie about the status of these items, but instead they were honest with me and as a result, they'll be my only stop for any maintenance this car needs moving forward.Their price for the all weather tires were also $200 cheaper than what Mobil 1 quoted me with their "summer promotions." Skip the big chains and support these guys instead!

I have never received such impeccable service than I did at GRiP! My tire went flat in the middle of a busy work day. I called GRiP Tire and after sending a few photos, they offered to come to my office to pickup my vehicle and take it to the shop for me. The tire could not be repaired and within a few hours they had a replacement set for me. When I picked up my car, it had been cleaned inside and out — a big job given that I have 2 young kids and my car is not always the cleanest. They also registered me for their VIP program which gives me 24 hour roadside assistance and a 3 year warranty on all automative repairs. I will definitely be back next time I need maintenance!! Big thanks to Lee and the whole team at GRiP PoMo!

As always grip did not disappoint with their great customer service and performance. After multitude of issues with Mazda I started coming here as this is where we purchase our tires. They have always fixed our vehicles well and provided insight into the problems. The reports we get with a triage based list is also a wonderful tool to reference when finances are tight. Highly recommend we travel from mission to have them work on it and will continue to do so.

Was quite impressed with the level of service I received from Grip Tires. The guys are very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Tires were installed, car vacuumed and washed while I waited in the air conditioned waiting area. Coffee and water were complimentary. I also learned that they are a full service shop, not just for tire installation.I live in Maple Ridge and I will definitely consider traveling to Port Moody for all my vehicle needs.

These guys are great. I try to do some car maintenance on my own, and they're always willing to talk me through what it needs and kindly bail me out if I do it wrong. Patient, honest, not condescending. Perk- they have their own tow truck and courtesy vehicles.

Pre-purchase inspection: amazing service from those guys. The inspection was thorough. Most importantly: they spent an extra 20-30 minutes with me reviewing the work to be done and advising on buying the car or not based on their experience. (ended up not buying).

This was my third time using Grip Tire for repairs and service. They go over and above what my dealer does. They gave me a service car, washed and vacuumed my vehicle and the car was ready when they said it would be. I have never felt over charged for the work done in comparison to the dealership I have used for 20 years. It takes time to find a company that is honest and trustworthy. I am recommending Grip Tire to all my friends and family.

We showed up 1 hour before closing with a nail perfurating our left rear tire and losing air pressure. It was obvious they were busy as the day was winding down. Nevertheless, they got on it and repaired the tire in about 30 minutes, sending us on our way with smiles on our faces. It was Steve Tolloch who wrote up the repair and he could not have been more courteous and professional.

Recently had my stinger out of the winters. Lee was super friendly and professional. The shop was clean and organized and the technicians knew what they were doing. Came back after around 500 km to re-torque the nuts and it was super quick and of course, complimentary. The only minor thing i noticed though, was the valve covers were not the original ones that was on my wheel and one of them is shorter than the others. Oh well, as long as its holding air. Overall love this place and i will be returning to swap the summers.

These fellas at GRiP are top notch. I recently bought a used truck from a private owner. And I was a little concerned I bought a lemon after driving it for a week. Just by meeting and chatting with Lee I knew it was in good hands. They did a full inspection / tune up with report. Turns out it wasn't a lemon. And now I can drive with peace of mind. Very good prices and very trustworthy. Now my wife is getting tires from them haha

After looking at my tire to first see if it could be repaired (which it couldn’t), GRIP ordered me a new tire and installed it on my rim. I then came in the next day and they replaced my spare with the new tire and I was in and out in less than 30 mins. They were very professional and pricing was competitive. I will be back.

I went here to replace my headlight (electrical for my Toyota Camry) since it was burnt out. The experience was fabulous and organized. I really appreciate the easy booking system, set appointment time, and confirmation text prior to the appointment. They replaced my headlight and even washed my car and vacuumed the interior! Such an amazing perk, my car definitely needed it. I’ll continue going here for any of my car needs!

Found this place thru another shop. Spoke with Steve and I must say I've never experienced such genuine customer service over the phone and work in my life. Steve went above and beyond on many occasions and did everything he could to make sure I was happy with the tires in my tesla. I highly recommend this shop to anyone getting tires or servicing!

William Nohr

I needed new tires and called around to the big guys….CDN Tire, Costco, Walmart, etc. and by accident found Grip Tires. Spoke with Jordan and he was very helpful and knowledgeable. The experience taking it my car there was a refreshing change from the lack of customer service you get these days. I definitely recommend them and will go back and try their other services. Top notch service from Jordan.

No Mechanic has ever made me felt so at ease during a difficult time. I was really freaking out when my car started to shake uncontrollably. They went above & beyond to make sure my vehicle was fixed properly. I was not charged any extra fees for bringing an import for service. The labour cost was beyond reasonable and the courtesy car that was offered was the icing on the cake. I recommend these guys for everything.

Thankfully my dealership didn’t have the time to put snow tires on my vehicle, or I never would have discovered the guys down at GRiP. They were very communicative every step of the way, gave me options and did what I asked in a few days. I am so happy with how the new tires look and feel. I appreciate the care taken with my tires and thought the vacuuming was a nice touch!! They also are just great guys with a sense of humour and that goes far with me. I will recommend them to everyone I know and will be back!

All of our experiences with GRiP have been wonderful. The customer service is excellent, and they are accommodating. The cost of repair is fair and reasonable, and I have never felt as though I am being taken advantage of. The front desk always takes time to explain services in plain language, and walk me through the reports. Yesterday, I got a flat tire in Langley, and being new to BC, I was feeling a little out of my depth on what to do, and how to get back to Port Moody. I called GRiP and as a member of their VIP program, they organized for a tow truck to come. Whoever I spoke to on the phone was very kind and understanding. I am really grateful for the consistent wonderful service at GRiP, and their willingness and without hesitation response in helping me out yesterday.

This review is long overdue. Over the summer, my partner and I were visiting Vancouver BC from Portland, Oregon for the first time. We had car trouble and had to get our towed as close to our air b&b as possible and this is the place we found. Car trouble is never fun, let alone when you're on an international vacation. But this place made the entire experience as pleasant as it could be. We were taken care of as if we were family, constantly communicated with (because the issue was unknown for a while), were given research and price comparisons, and ultimately got our car fixed for as cheap as possible, as fast as possible, and as safe as possible to get us home. The care and service we received here were above and beyond any customer service experience we have received, let alone from an auto repair facility. I WISH this place was local to us because I would never take my car anywhere else. We had such an incredible experience here and I hope this community realizes how lucky they are to have such a business with such care, integrity and compassion. Thank you!
