Melo Auto

I came in to get repairs because my truck was long overdue and I’m taking it on a long haul to move out east to the Maritimes. Chris and the team at Melo Auto were awesome. As an auto layman finding a good mechanic is always a challenge. But Chris was upfront and honest about his assessment of the state of my vehicle and explained the problems to me in a way I could understand, even going so far as to show me the problems while my truck was being examined.
Because of my limited budget, Chris was able to work with me to prioritize the repairs that were necessary from a safety standpoint and was honest about the ones that could wait. I never felt like I was being taken advantage of. My rather extensive but necessary repairs were done promptly and on estimate. Before the repairs were started Chris explained to me that my break pads could be reused, but when I came to pick up the truck the next day he said he had to replace them but didn’t up charge me because he doesn’t like to «tell people one thing and than call them during the repairs and say its going to cost a ton more». Amazing.
He was even able to get me a great deal on winter tires.
My old truck drives like new.
Such a shame to find an amazing mechanic right before I move out of town. If you need some work done and want it done honestly and competently, Chris and the guys at Melo auto should be your first and only stop.

It is a great place, never felt like am ever going to be cheated or lied from the guys there. very polite and professional, neat place. I will always go there.

Really good and nice guys. I thought my starter was dead, and that would have run me close to $ 700. Instead, they told me it was a battery issue, which it was, and saved me $ 500 in the process. They also let me know my car was in good shape and that I didn’t have to spend a ton on it, unlike several other places that tried to squeeze me dry. Definitely coming back here.

I would give six stars if I could.
Absolutely amazing attitude and services. Very very nice staff.
They respect their customers and the vehicles. I watched Chris and George putting together a motorcycle while I was waiting to park my car inside, they were so very thorough about it. They got my oil changed very quickly, and surprisingly these guys gave me a nicely done wash for free. I quote Chris «We want the cars to get out of here the way they should look like»
I mean, this is how you should do business and treat people. These guys made my day.
This is definitely my go-​to place from now on. Thanks, Chris, Wojtek and George.

I would highly recommend this mechanic to anyone, I had the best service ever and the best price. Chris was super friendly and helpful, two thumbs up!

I never knew it was possible to love a mechanic, but this is definitely the case with Chris at Melo Automotive!
My husband came here to get one of our cars fixed, and not only was it fixed quickly and with a reasonable rate, but the car looked brand new, in the engine and on the outside of the car, when we got it back. I got a safety check for another car, and it was done quickly and everything was explained to me. And, he even fit in an oil change and and an air filter change as well! Talk about efficient! We will be back for our other automotive needs.

Great service! Friendly staff! Would highly recommend this mechanic to any one looking for a new place to take their car too.

I would highly recommend Melo to anyone. The service was impeccable, the owners are lovely and knowledgeable, and everything was done quickly and efficiently, with specific attention paid to minimizing my inconvenience. Also, they both have immense Volkswagen expertise, which means my Rabbit is in great hands.
Kudos, lads!

Really glad to have found this place; I randomly came in for an oil change and left with (what feels like) a whole new car. The atmosphere of the shop isn’t intimidating like most and you never get the impression that they’re trying to get your money and rush you out the door. Chris did a quick inspection of the key components of my car, showing me exactly what needed work or replacement and explaining the level of importance of each job. The prices are great, the work is quick and both he and Wojtek take pride in what they do. They also don’t nitpick and charge extra for every last tuneup like almost all of the other shops I’ve been to. They’ll even clean your car as part of the service. Highly recommended!

This shop has truly outstanding customer service. I have been to many mechanics and dealerships for auto repairs and Chris and his team totally exceed all of them in terms of quality and value. I brought my 2005 Civic in for a timing belt/​water pump replacement and he even took the time to explain to me the work they had done and the parts they replaced. They did a number of other services out of courtesy (including washing my car, wiping the dash, checking the tires), and all was done for a very competitive price. I have a rather lengthy commute and am very picky about where I take my car: Melo Auto really went out of their way to make me feel confident about their work.
The team here is passionate about cars and work extremely hard for their clients. This is the type of business I love to patronize and I will definitely be bringing my car here in the future!
