Thanks Joanna and courtenay for recommending Dave. For anyone else interested, my husband is a full time heavy duty mechanic, but takes side jobs in the evenings and weekends for personal vehicles. He absolutely hates seeing people get ripped off by shops, and won't tell you you need parts/repairs if you don't and he charges a fair price. You can email him at drisidore@gmail.com

Let's see...I paid $800 for 2 of Fountain Tires cheapest tires a few years ago, and recently got 4 All Weather tires from another place for less than 6, so DO NOT take it to Fountain Tire on St. Albert Trail. Sinclair Auto is the ONLY place I will take my car for any repairs.

Mike S. replied:
Fair enough Big Kev. That was my only complaint. Never been a customer myself. Was turned off when I had to report that guy. You made a smart move terminating him. His monster truck was a beacon saying "don't come here" to me. But I haven't seen it in a while (as you pointed out). I'll remove my previous post. Sorry. --no complaints about Big Kev.
