Check engine light came on in 1 of my vehicles, and I took it by for Mike to have a look. Turned out to be a catalytic converter issue. Nothing to worry about right now, but when the time comes it will be expensive. Mike cleared the code for now and I was on my way, with some very valuable information and things to…

Review from Google · view on GoogleWent in to get my muffler replaced, they got it done in 2 hours for an extremely fair price. I had replacements for my serpentine belt and headlight sitting on my passenger seat that I was going to bring somewhere to get done but the man who was working on my car (I believe his name was Mike) took it upon himself to replace them free of charge. It was my first time doing business here and I will absolutely be going again.

Review from Google · view on GoogleCheck engine light came on in 1 of my vehicles, and I took it by for Mike to have a look. Turned out to be a catalytic converter issue. Nothing to worry about right now, but when the time comes it will be expensive. Mike cleared the code for now and I was on my way, with some very valuable information and things to think about. For the last 18+ years that I've been bringing my vehicles to Mid-Cape Tire. Mike has always been straightforward, upfront, and honest about what needs to be done on my cars. He will never try and up sell anything to a customer. I wish all auto shops were like that.

Mike is a no nonsense kind of guy (in the best kind of gruff Mass mechanic way! lol), but always gets right to the issue and solution, and wont try to oversell but does let you know whats needed on the car. We often bring our vehicles to him on a moments notice for tires, oil, and other mechanical needs and he's so quick with turnaround or is upfront about any delays or hurdles. As a small business, we appreciate working with another reliable local business that understands our needs and limitations. Thank you for all you do for us!
