On top of very competitive prices the crew at Grip Tire went above and beyond taking time to answer all my questions as well as explaining the difference between all season and winter tires. After going over all options and making sure I was clear on the product I had selected thier quote was exactly what I paid after the tires were installed. Great job and even better service! Will be returning to Grip Tire for all my future tire needs.

Not 5 stars, 10!!!!I just want to express JOY + HAPPY with these guys!!! Nothing but top tier service from the best of the best!! Have taken my car a few times now, always given a fair quote that blows away those gawd forsaken dealerships. But seriously though, I trust these guys with my car, prices are very reasonable, and service is excellent every time. (I sound like an ad, I know) but it’s spot on true.Grip thanks again!Mike (Service Advisor) you rock!All the staff, much appreciated for all you do!

Mike and his crew are fantastic! They are extremely professional and very honest. When Mike realized my SUV was still under warranty, he directed me to the dealership rather than take money out of my pocket.You don’t come across that kind of honesty very much, especially in the car repair business.Thanks boys!!

On September 6th my family and I ran into mechanical issues while traveling to Vancouver Island. We were on the side of the road nearby Grip Auto & tires and I walked in to see if they could get me some parts quickly. Tyler and the crew were awesome and ordered in the parts we needed in, and in 30 mins we had them. Thank you so much for the amazing customer service it was greatly appreciated. We highly recommend using their services!! Alex FW

These guys are great! They not only helped me out in a pinch. Got my car dealt with quick, they also stood behind their work and encouraged me to come back in a week just to make sure the repair they did is solid. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience bringing my car here. Booked an appointment for my Miata to have the wheels balanced. I let them know the car is lowered significantly. It was no problem, they had 2x4s and ramps to get it onto their lift without scraping. Weights had fallen off all 4 wheels so they put new ones on and got them dialled in. Also, Mike at the front desk is wonderful to deal with; very friendly, knowledgeable, took his time with me, got the answers I requested from the tech who worked on my car regarding more specific info about ball-joint wear that they indicated in their complimentary inspection report. Nothing was too much trouble. Definitely coming back when I need tires in the near future.

Jimmy Le

19:35 09 Jul 24

Mike was very helpful in teaching me about the different parts of the car I need to be watchful for. They text you all the inspection they did and what needs to be done so that was convenient. Will be coming back because the customer service was excellent!

Trevor Inwood

Absolutely awesome business! My car had multiple issues and it was not drivable when I dropped it off. They were very upfront about costs and had everything completed within a day! They even offered to drive me back to my house if I needed. Everyone I spoke to was very kind and knowledgeable. They even let my dog wait with me inside. Can’t say enough great things about this business!

Google wouldn't allow me to add a second review so I deleted my first and I am adding it here.First:11 months agoI took my Jeep Cherokee to GRiP Tire & Auto Murrayville for electrical repairs this morning. They solved my problem and then some. Indeed, I thought it would cost me more, but it cost me considerably less. They got the job done and I will return to Grip the next time I need work done, and I would not hesitate in recommending them to anyone. They do great work and I am a very satisfied customer.Edit: This is a second review. I had a car alarm problem and GRIP fixed it extremely quickly and for no charge. I have rapidly developed the opinion that GRIP in Murrayville is an honest business that treats it's customers extremely well.New review: une 3 24I had an investigatory inspection done and Grip found the proplem. Although it was not what I was hoping for their findings were obvious and they again treated me exceptionally well, including a ride to and from hiome while the insprection was done. The chief mechanic and Mike at the front desk do excellent work, and I would recommend GRIP to anyone who isn't a jerk. Jerks don't deserve GRIP.

I called Grip to perform a pre-purchase inspection on a used vehicle I was thinking about purchasing. The inspection was very thorough and included pictures and video. I dealt with Mike. He was very knowledge, patient and professional at explaining all aspects of the inspection process and results to me. The inspection really helped me make a correct and informed decision. Thanks again.

These guys are above and beyond. I had a nail in my tire. They were worried that as soon as they would pull it, it would let out air and the location didn’t allow for repair. So they ordered a tire so when we pull the nail, we had something to replace the tire with and I would it lose the use of my car for 1-2 days. They pulled the nail and there was no air leak. They said how lucky I was and just let me go! In addition, they are keeping the ordered tire for 1 week in case my tire deflates. Amazing customer service, friendly and so helpful. It is our second time using them and we will keep going back. Every time.

I just want to thank Mike and the crew at Grip Tire and auto. I was on a trip to the island I got a flat tire. luckily Mike got some tires for us that day so we can continue on with our trip.

Just got my vehicle serviced, I was fed up with the dealerships service department. So I gave these guys a shot as I had previously bought my tires from them they are absolutely amazing at the job knowledgable staff. The mechanics do an excellent job as they took there time and checked ✔️ everything as the manufacturer tells you on the chart. They even provide you with a Picture with an update on your vehicle while getting serviced. Telling you They are way better than dealerships.

Excellent service!!GRiP Tire & Auto Murrayville should be proud to have Jordan as the face of their business! He's extremely professional, savvy, and very pleasant to deal with.In addition to getting some regular maintenance done we asked for a quote to have the air conditioning fixed in our Yukon. Well, weren't we pleasantly surprised when we were told it was only a minor issue and would not cost too much to fix! In the past we had been told by another business that the air conditioning would have to been completely replaced, which would have cost significantly more!We were very impressed with the thorough, courtesy car wash too! Nice little treat!Thank you!Neil and Katrina Winter - Murrayville, Langley
