Ranran Salvador Jun 6, 2026

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!

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.

Alex is the MAN!

Pete Kelly Jul 7, 2024

Had a couple of visits to True-Centre Auto Service and the service continues to be respectful and helpful. Buying a used vehicle sometimes can be stressful as you are unaware if or what could go wrong. This happen to me twice and this centre made sure they found exactly what was wrong and communicated with me before they proceeded with a price expectation for repair. Thank you for your continued client focus service.

Great experience overall and I will be going back when my vehicle is in need of fixing. I've had great experiences going there, staff are great and I think the repairs are done in a timely manner.

Justin Sackaney Mar 3, 2026

My first time at True Centre Auto, and I was thoroughly satisfied. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and they were knowledgeable and honest about the costs. The car was spotless when returned, and I was very impressed. I'll definitely be back. As a nice touch, they even left a pack of gum in the car—not necessary, but a thoughtful gesture.😁

JUBIN RAJU Mar 3, 2026

Great honest service from all staff. We brought in a 2019 Micra thinking the transmission was done. Turns out it was the lines. Could of cost t thousands of dollars but it was less then 1000$. Can't express how relieved I was. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR GREAT SERVICE. Eric

Adaeze Okafor Feb 2, 2026

As usual, another great experience with True Centre. Service was incredibly friendly, they took the time to answer all of my questions without making me feel like a bother, and I had my car back in record time! I recommend the team at True Centre to everyone!

Jessica Ouellette Mar 3, 2025

1st time going to true center auto and I was blown away. Very friendly and welcoming, they were knowledgeable and able to provide a rough cost before going in and stayed true to the cost, the car was clean when we got it back (in the past at other auto places there has been grease on the seat etc.), and they called to schedule a pickup as soon as the vehicle was done instead of waiting until the end of the day. Very impressed and we will be going back. Not to mention the pack of gum that was left for us in the car, not necessary but very nice perk.
