Art-E-Motive Repairs Inc

I went in to check my Chevrolet Cruze as the engine light appeared, and wanted to know what the problem was. They mentioned there was a problem with the valve cover which was going to be upwards of $300, which I was okay with. They installed the part without full inspection of the vehicle's' problems, later to tell me I needed a new intake which was going to total upwards of $1300. I wasn't okay with the repair and uninstalled the initial valve cover. Upon getting back my vehicle, they had made me pay for the labour of putting it on and taking it off, which was still $300. I am very dissatisfied with their service as they didn't fully inspect the vehicle before heading on with ALL the repairs. They would not have seen the entire intake issue after replacing the valve cover if they did not see it when first inspecting the vehicle, meaning they chose not to disclose the second issue until after making me pay for the first. Their dishonesty cost me an extra $300 and I have now been without a car for weeks. I will no longer be heading to this shop for repairs and have informed everyone I know in the area to go somewhere else.I am now questioning the legitimacy of their 4 and 5 star reviews. I would give less than 1 star if I could. Save yourself some time and money by going somewhere else.

Great Service. Replaced my Transfer case on my 2013 F-150. Truck now working great. Will be back

My daughter was completely ripped off. She went in for a simple winter tire change and was told she needed front brakes they changed her $784, the next day she started the car, made it to Tim Hortons where it died. She called them and they said she needed a battery, charged her $543 for a battery! She is a single mom, my husband had to lend her the money. How do these people live with themselves!

Called them on a Friday because my tires were leaking air, They managed to get me in same day, They did the work quick and it fixed the problem, Very trustworthy shop And charged me under what the competition Could do it for. All in all Highly recommend this place.

I gave these guys my car to replace an alternator and belt, came back to them 2 weeks later and they lost my car keys, I had to leave petawawa that night, so I was forced to ask a friend to drive me, turns out they gave my keys to someone else, they asked me to meet them halfway between Ottawa and Pet (I did not have a car) so they delivered the car to me, however it randomly wouldn't start...turns out the positive battery terminal was barely fastened. Worst experiance I've ever had with a mechanic, and they still charged me full price, they dont give a damn about customer loyalty or satisfaction and it shows.

They were able to squeeze me in for a safety. I have never been to this shop, so I was sure I would be charged for some fix before a safety. Nope. They called me at the end of the day to say my 2011 Tiguan bought on Facebook was perfectly fine. Oh, they also performed a small repair I didn't know I needed free of charge. Brittany was amazing. Will sure come back!

Great local garage. I trust bringing my vehicles there for repair. They're fair and always priced well. The new location is great as well, plenty of parking available!

I had my car with Art-E-Motive for a total of 7 days. During this time I was reassured I would be contacted with a diagnosis and estimate before repairs were done, yet parts were ordered without contacting me. They closed early for Thanksgiving (on Saturday) and did not have the courtesy to call me to let me know they were still trying". I was required to pay for labour

Art-e is really nice and knowledgeable. Their hospitality is unmatched. My wait time was short. Their service fees are quite reasonable and affordable.

We're from out of town, had our car towed here recommendation of my brother in-law, Art went out of his way to stay late until my car was fixed (alternator), you don't realize how much we appreciated this great service!
