Selection of Vehicles

We have a fleet of five loaner vehicles available for customers, catering to different needs and preferences. We understand that not every customer has the same car or the same needs. That’s why we offer a variety of vehicles for customer use. Our selection includes:

  1. Truck: Ideal for those needing a vehicle with hauling capabilities or extra cargo space.
  2. Minivan: Spacious and versatile, perfect for families or those requiring extra passenger capacity.
  3. SUVs: We have two SUV options available – one 2WD and one AWD. Our 2WD SUV is perfect for comfortable city driving. Meanwhile, our AWD SUV is great for challenging road conditions and in the snow. No matter where you’re driving to, our SUVs have got you covered.

Our Customer Reviews

Alex is the MAN!

Pete Kelly Jul 7, 2024

Always top notch. They keep you up to date on everything...great service!

Trev Jul 7, 2026

Always had great service there for the 30 years I have been using them. The ladies at the front are always so nice and polite too. The service manager comes and explains everything to you and the mechanics are always top notch on the repairs.

Lise Lajeunesse Jul 7, 2026

Very professional and friendly service. I spoke directly with the technician and was automatically provided with a description, photos and videos describing the issues and repair. Take all of your vehicle needs to them!

Claude Jul 7, 2026

True-Centre is now my go-to garage. They work well with my warranty and do a lot of the heavy lifting concerning insurance and coverage of work. I also really appreciate the diagnostic report being emailed to me, so I have a clear picture of what is going to need work and what should be prioritized. I love that they loan a car out to you if you need work on your vehicle but need transportation; this has been a life saver for me as I drive to Temiscaming and back everyday. The mechanics also have no issue explaining things if needed and a HUGE shout-out to Kalee as she's been a huge help in figuring stuff out for my car with scheduling and warranty coverage. The waiting room also offers complimentary beverages; hot or cold. Their prices are a little higher than average garages in the area, but factoring in how smoothly things go with servicing, I don't mind paying a little bit more. They are a business, after all, and have to pay their employees. I can't recommend them enough!!!

Em Beaudette Jul 7, 2026

Their staff was great and very communicative with me. Kaylee especially!!

Rodney Duce Jul 7, 2026

Dan Cuisia Oct 10, 2025

Great friendly service, we were very impressed. Cost us less than we expected. First time customer and will be a repeat customer for sure.

Sean Murphy Jun 6, 2026

Great customer interactions and reminders of your appointments. I honestly have no complaints.

Julie McCallum Jun 6, 2026

I booked an appointment with them for a rattling noise in my truck. They performed some inspections but couldn’t find anything wrong. However, they gave me some great advice, and the best part was that they didn’t charge me a dime! Unlike other shops that charge for a consultation right away, they were honest and helpful. For me, this is the best shop I’ve been to so far

Ranran Salvador Jun 6, 2026

The fine people at Tru Center put a rush on my service due to a family emergency. I left feeling relaxed and impressed with the level of service. Their technicians were fast and efficient also the front of house staff is incredible. Huge thank-you to all involved.

Brought my KIA in for an AC problem. True Centre were quick to book the vehicle in and get the repair done. They had easy and friendly communication throughout the day with updates on the job. I’ll be going here again next time!

Keith Dobbs Jun 6, 2026

Excellent service, courteous staff and reliable . Prices are decent too.

Jackie Grenon Jun 6, 2026

True-centre Auto Service is more than a multi generational family business. It's a business that is quickly moving into the next gen of car care. They have state of the art equipment and know how to use it to look after my vehicle, 5 star customer service, and I leave the visit feeling looked after. It was very pleasant and personal. Even during my wait I had access to shuttle service, pop, water, juice, coffee, candy, and popcorn. All free! I can see why this business has held onto customers generation after generation! In years to come people will be taking their flying saucers for servicing I'm sure!!! Keep up the great work. I'll be back.

Dan Levesque Jun 6, 2026

Andrew House Jun 6, 2026

I was very recently passing through North Bay, The last stretch of a 4 Day drive from Saskatchewan on my way to see My mama, who is in the hospital, When the front left wheel bearing crapped out on my truck… Definitely not what I needed! I was in panic mode and stressed out big time, but Lexi was such a sweetheart, and managed to fit me in right away with Jason On a Monday morning and got me back on the road Within hours! I really appreciate you guys so much! Thank you again!

Laura J Jun 6, 2026

VERY HAPPY . NICE PEOPLE TO DEAL WITH.

ARTHUR CASSELL Jun 6, 2026

The staff was phenomenal !!! ... called me a cab to and from home ... sent me a very detailed, itemized text on what needed work and in which order. Need to add here, I am recently widowed and it's the first time I've never felt taken advantage in this situation. We will be booking intervals to get my vehicle totally repaired !!!! I am truly impressed ... loyal customer right here !!! Gisèle Gauthier

Gisele Gauthier Jun 6, 2026

I have to thank Kaylee and the Ladies in the front office. They are always friendly, professional, caring and efficient. I’m always impressed with the service I receive.

Bernadette L Feb 2, 2024

Recently got new tires and brake work, and I'll absolutely be going back. The mechanics know what they're doing, and the service advisors are friendly, helpful, and accommodating. They even have comfortable waiting room with drinks and snacks. If you don't have time to wait, they'll arrange either a ride or a loaner car. Car problems suck, but these folks make it a lot easier.
