All the team members I spoke with were very personable, and did not rush any of the conversations I had during the time working on my truck, and waiting for parts. As a vet I really appreciate that, also Mr Rich is one hell of a mechanic. My truck drives straighter than ever before, I had my 4x4 components replaced. I will be a customer for life with this shop.

This is the first time we've taken a vehicle to Garrys. We have previously used another shop in Meridian that is quite pricey. I chose Garry's because of the many, many 5 star reviews. I sure wish mechanic shops didn't have such an untrustworthy stereotype. I took my GMC in because the brakes make a grinding sound after driving it for a while. I thought I may need to new brakes/rotors. They said the brakes/rotors looked fine and would hate for me to spend $300-$500 on a new brake setup for no reason.
They checked the wheel bearings and couldn't find any reason for the grinding sound. He said that mechanically and safety wise, everything was just fine. There was no charge for the inspection or brake check. Although I still don't think any brakes should make a grinding noise, I am grateful to know the car is still safe to drive and truly hope it is just a rough patch in the brake pad. I'd be willing to use Garry's again after this experience. I appreciate the fact that they were honest!

Great service from start to end. This was my first time taking there and they got me in quickly without any appointments as I needed to get on a road trip. All the recommendations were on point. Just some issue with check engine light as it was not there when I gave my car, but they were nice enough to fix that for me without any cost and seems it was the dust due to the repairs. I guess they gained a new client and I would recommend to take your car here for service.

I have been taking my(family) vehicles to Garry's for 17 years. They have serviced cars/trucks/SUVs for us. I have found them to be extremely honest and easy to have discussions with. There is never any "high pressure" for repair. They will thoroughly review your vehicle, give you a report of what's what and a cost for the individual repairs. You can choose if you wish to do some/all/none of the repairs, no pressure, it's all up to you.
They have saved me money over the years by their recommendations. All of their staff are extremely courteous, professional and knowledgeable. And. they have no problem answering questions, for those us us, who are not, mechanically inclined (another very big plus!).

My experience with Garry's Automotive was by far the best experience that I've had with a mechanic. Not only were they able to get my car in the morning after I called, but they helped me prioritize what needed to be immediately fixed and what I should keep an eye on. My car was finished the same day and has been running great! Highly recommend for any car repairs and maintenance.
