Mike’s Automotive

If you ever need a mechanic who will treat you right, mile is it. I’ve been going to him since the day he opened, he is always fair. Always shows me the defects, and when he fixes something he always shows me the defectives once he’s finished. I have never had to go back to him for a problem that wasn’t fixed. His honesty is refreshing.

This Guy is A Rip Off!!!
Come on Leslieville Let’s get these Shady criminal businesses out of our area. Young families deserve better than to have to deal with people like this!

I Saw all the positive reviews. I decided to check Mike’s Auto out. I arrived and I assume it was Mike that came out. He said can I help you? And I said yes there is too much play in my steering. He said I can’t help you today and then there was silence. I said okay and I left.

Great mechanic. Called him last minute to fix my starter & he did it in no time and for a fair price. Life saver really.
Highly recommended.

I love this mechanic. He is honest and thorough and is fixing my belts and replacing parts that were forgotten with my last visit to the dealership mechanics. Definitely recommend this place

My mother always told me that «men are like streetcars, if you miss one, another will come along in 10 minutes.» Thanks, Mom, the last streetcar I took smelled like airplane glue and moved like a lurching drunkard only to short turn before I got off. I think I will stay a single lady and drive my box (2006 Scion XB) to the ground. With the tender help of Mike’s Automotive, thank you very much.
Before I stumbled serendipitously upon Mike’s shop (he is located right across from the Leslie Lakeshore Loblaws Eastern Ave parking lot) I was foolishly going to Canadian Tire for winter tire change and dumbass things that you could do yourself if you had the patience to read instructions, like simply installing new windshield wipers, and whatnot. Sometimes I’m really stupid. I make my own mayonnaise but I can’t figure out how to change a lightbulb. One day when I was at Loblaws, I had a flat tire and because Mike’s shop was right across the street, he fixed the tire right then and there. Months later, I came back to have him put my winter tires put on and he remembered my name! Okay, NOBODY ever remembers my name, I’m that type of person you forget you met even more than once, you could just call me «Kate» and I’ll say yes, I’m used to it. Mike remembered my name after 4 months and dude at Canadian Tire called me «ma’am.“That is the worst.
So, I’ve been going to him ever since for every seasonal tire and oil change, and last summer when my car broke down on the highway in Newmarket and I finally needed a new clutch after putting it off (my own fault)… ugh that that was the worst, PROTIP: Get CAA Plus because that 35k tow was almost $ 300, Mike is super patient will all my hysteria and he takes care of everything at hand and makes sure everything else is running smoothly as well AND his prices are always pleasantly reasonable. I barely even want to share my recommendation because, according to my mother’s theory, if men are like ubiquitous, rattling streetcars, then Mike is a unicorn-​pulled carriage with Lloyd Dobler carrying a boombox over his head playing «In Your Eyes.» A good mechanic is hard to find, am I right?

I have had Mike look after my 15 year old car for 2 years now. He is a diamond, he’s friendly, gets right down to business and really takes pride in his work. Even though my car is not a trophy, Mike reminds me of all its good qualities. The work is done fast, bad news is usually followed by a couple of helpful options and he always finds ways of giving extra when he knows the payment hurts! He’s offered rides to wherever I’m going as soon as I hand over the car keys. The shop is spotless and organized. I recommend Mike’s Automotive to all my friends and even strangers.
