Meridian Auto and Tire

Got our tires balanced here and the second we drove out, 3 (or more) of the weights fell off. Then the office guy said it’d be a bit before they could get back to us. Really? Wouldn’t that put us first in line since the job was already paid for & obviously wasn’t done right? I’m giving it 3 stars because the other guy who helped us was very nice. Oh well… Taking it somewhere else to get it done properly.

I highly recommend Meridian Auto and Tire. After discovering Meridian Auto and Tire a few months ago, we’ve brought in a couple of our vehicles in there for several different things. After buying a used Tahoe we started having some issues with an electrical component. To make a long story short, Meridian replaced the part, but we kept having the issue. They really went the extra mile to try and figure out what the problem was, but after talking to Chevy, we brought it to the dealer, who replaced the same part. It turns out the the part was defective. After going back to Meridian Auto and Tire, they were incredibly professional and wanted to go the extra mile to make sure we were happy. In the end, they decided to split the labor with me and give me half of the money that I paid for labor back (since I had to pay to have the same part replaced again). Obviously, they did not have to do this, they could have sent me on my way and washed their hands of the problem. I believe that the sign of great customer service is how the treat you when things don’t go smoothly. Meridian Auto and Tire proved that they have superior customer service and expertise (I can’t blame them for a brand new part being defective). From the owner, Jim, to Mark and Rick up front, to the tech Skylar, they all were incredibly friendly and professional. I will continue to bring my vehicles there and will recommend them every time I get the chance.

Traveling on vacation in Bellingham when the dreaded «check engine» light came on. A google search took us to Meridian auto to check the light and determine the seriousness of the situation. I was impressed by the feedback from the mechanic checking the light. He found the problem right away and also found some other issues based upon our explaining how the car was running.
They fixed exactly what they were asked to fix and neither my wife nor myself felt that they took advantage of us being on vacation and a long way from home.
We will definitely recommend this shop to all of our Bellingham friends. It’s nice to find a friendly and honest repair shop.

My daughter’s tire went flat overnight and when she woke up, had to borrow her friends car to get to class. She called and asked me what she should do. Being the protective and helpful Dad that I am, I searched for a tire shop near her apartment. When I called Meridian and explained to Jim what happened, he offered to drive over to the apartment with a compressor and inflate the tire so she could get her car to their shop for repairs. A short time and a whopping $ 10 later, she drove away completely happy with a fixed tire. Thanks Jim.

Went above and beyond when I needed a flat fixed.
