I have gone here for 7 years and have never had one complaint! Their pricing is competitivewith other companies and their work is top notch and on time. I have worked with Ben, Randy, and David the most, but all are so welcoming and professional. I will never go anywhere else!!

Big thanks to the crew at Norm’s. Went in this morning with a nail in a tire. They had me fixed up and back on the road in under an hour, all for just 23 bucks!

Great experience! I dropped into Norms needing an emergency tire repair, without an appointment. Although they seemed quite busy, they repaired my tire while I waited in less than 30 minutes. Great service, knowledgeable staff & fair pricing. Will absolutely return to Norm in the future.

Nice guy that helped us. He said our tires just wouldnt work and one was too old even though they just came off a new car. He tried to sell us new tires from them instead. But he was nice.

Great service. They did some work for me and found out that because of another issue, they could not complete the work. They told me about the issue and helped me find an alternative option and it might be under warranty with my car dealer. They didnt charge me anything since they couldnt finish the job. Great folks and I will be back for more service once I fix this issue.

Tom provided great customer service and stayed in constant contact with me around ordering new tires and getting them installed. The hazard protection came in handy after I hit a rock and blew out my tire after one week. Only a few quick questions about what happened and a new tire was on the way. I would highly recommend Tom and the rest of the staff at Norm’s. Great experience.

Review №24

Overall, I am always happy at Norms. They are a bit pricey for some services, but they do make up for it in getting it done when they say and their professionalism is typically good; its not necessarily red carpet, but they get the job done. Lacking is waiting area comforts like snacks and drinks (some places have free stuff while you wait), seating is not the best, and TV wasnt working that day. Seems nominal to complain about luxuries like that, but if you have to wait an hour plus for a tire fix, you might as well have something to watch. I ended up going back to work and they called right at the time they said it would be done; so definitely punctual. Price for tire fix ($13) is standard market price, price for other services is hit or miss.

Review №28

Ive been a loyal customer for 12 years with all of our vehicles. That relationship ended Saturday. A little over a week ago I scheduled my truck for service. In addition to the service I informed the person on the phone that I believed the windshield washer lines were clogged and the key fob would not lock or unlock the driver side door. At that point I was informed there would be close to a $100 diagnostic fee to check the door lock issue so I took that off the work order. To my surprise, when I was called and informed the truck was ready I was then informed that I was being charged that same diagnostic fee for the washer issue. They guy on the phone said that was actually cheaper than being charged for all the mechanical work to find the problem. That is bull. Sorry guy but not a lot of work to determine the nozzles are clogged.When I went to pick up the vehicle, I told the counterman that I was hacked that I was being charged a large fee that I was never told I would be charged. His response was simply to say I understand. When I told him that paying this charge means were done after this his response was I understand.Turns out the problem was clogged nozzles. The local Ford dealer has ordered them and will install them. I may pay a little more but they appreciate my business.I dont know who the guy was and there were two of them on the counter. The folks that I do know were either off or no longer work at Norms. What I do know is that as soon as this guy was told I hadnt been informed of the charge, and he knew the customer was upset, he should have gotten a manager. When he was told this was ending a relationship, he should have gotten a manager.The front end attitude has grown cold and I guess they forgot they are not the only game in town. This is too bad because I have used this facility for a long time.Best wishes to the good folks at Norms. The ownership is a very good gentleman who I believe to be caring and honest. Be that as it is, I have a hard time doing business anywhere the employees show they couldnt care less about the customer. And that attitude was in full production this weekend.RG

Good local shop to do business with. Got me and out in a reasonable time even on a busy afternoon. I went in to have them inspect my car for a few issues I had been experiencing, and they were honest and upfront about what it might be. They did not try to convince me that something was wrong when it wasnt just to make a quick buck. Was not even charged for taking a look at it.Recommend these guys if you need an honest mechanic. I will be returning to them in the future for any other work I might need.

Review №36

Needed a repair done. Had to bring it back in on appointment. Came in for appointment on time, repair guy they use didnt show up while I waited there for over an hour. After repair was done to wheel, they didnt even bother to put or ask to put air in my tire that was flat. They are far to busy for personal service. We ended up having to take the car somewhere else and the repair wasnt even done. Money wasted. Wont be going back.

Review №39

We brought in a used car we were considering purchasing for them to look over before we made an offer. The car was a low mileage, high end (at the time) import, super clean but 21 years old. Norm’s gave it a complete clean bill of health (in writing, part by part), somewhat surprisingly considering the age. After purchasing the vehicle we noticed some issues that led us to believe the shocks needed replacing even thou they were specifically marked as “good” by Norm’s. Another shop confirmed the shocks needed replaced in addition to sway bars. This was not a cheap fix. Accurate information could have been crucial to us getting a better deal or the shocks fixed by the dealership before purchase. Norm’s also lost business by missing theses issues as we probably would have had them do the work if the dealership didn’t perform it. We did find a great shop that did the work coming in UNDER the quoted price! The car rides great now. On the plus side, the staff was nice and didn’t charge for the checkup.

We have been going to Norms for a decade now. From tires to oil changes and even several major car repairs. They dont try to sell you things you dont need and explain exactly what is going with your vehicle. Though they can sometimes be extremely busy things like that tires/tire repairs are usually done fairly quickly on walk in basis. If you are needing a repair that can be done in a day you can drop off your vehicle and even pick it up after hours or if you live/work reasonably close they will drop you off or pick you up. I like that they dont mind explaining complicated repairs & they never talk down to you if you dont quite understand what they said the first time, lol. If you ask them what they would do if it were their own vehicle you will get an honest answer. Many times they have told me because of age of my vehicle that they would do things a little different & often it is a lower price option. Basically you can trust them and they are not offended if you want a second opinion.Pretty good bunch of people from counter to parts to technicians working on your vehicle!

Review №44

Be wary. I rebuilt the front suspension and drivetrain components on my truck. Then I took the truck straight there and dropped it off. I told them that the upper and lower control arms are not aligned and they would have to be adjusted. They were to do that, a tire rotation, and alignment. I was informed that their mechanic said my wheel hub assemblies needed replaced. The passenger side was replaced 2 months ago, and the driver was replaced the same day I dropped it off. Then they said they would re-check it. When I called back to get an update they double-downed and said my parts must be defective. 2 different manufacturers must have sold me bad parts. So when I showed up to pick up my truck to take it elsewhere for the work I was told they couldnt and that there was too much play in the front wheels. Then asked if I still wanted the tire rotation. Wait! What? They were attempting to do the alignment and THEN rotate the tires? I said no and took it to another shop where they were able to put the control arms back into their proper position and do the rotation and alignment.Good luck with this place. Youll need it.

Review №45

I was recommended this shop when asking my fellow employees on a nearby mechanic. The fact that they were open on Saturday and accept walk-in was a big plus for me. I only came for a basic checkup to make sure my car is in good condition. I will definitely stop by in the future when it is time to replace my oil and filters.

Went in and told them that I had road noise and steering wheel shaking. Had an appointment at 10AM. A about 11AM they came out and said it was the left hub assembly Told them that I had both hubs replaced less than a year ago. Never heard anything like what I heard when the hubs went out the first time. Left and still road noise and steering wheel shaking. Got to thinking about 2 oil changes ago and they recommended a new battery. Told them I just purchased one less than 2 years ago. Still the battery is working fine. As far as the hub assembly they charged us 193.00 and for the bearing 109.00Called oReilly and auto zone they dont come separate its all in one unit . 89.99 1 year warranty 139.99 2 year warranty. What a RIP OFF! Will never go back. BEWARE

I had a appointment to get a alignment .it took them an hour and a half for them to tell me that I needed ball joints before I can get an alignment I am a certified mechanic that doesnt have an alignment machine and this is unacceptable it should have only taken them five maybe 10 minutes if theyre busy to diagnose the vehicle and give it back do not go to this place you will be disappointed!!

Review №56

Ive purchased three sets of tires at Norm the Tire Man. Their price has always been competitive and Ive had good experiences each time Ive been. Most recently, I took my daughters car in as the transmission seemed to be shifting hard. The techs checked the car out, took it for a test drive and told me there was nothing to fix--that the age of the car combined with cold weather was the cause of the hard shifts. Heres the best part of the story: the bill -- $0! No charge! How often does a repair shop do that?

Review №57

Honest and reliable. They stand behind their work and have always been awesome. I have been using Norms for 8 years with no complaints. All of the tires for all of my vehicles are bought through Norms. Service work and check ups are done at this shop as well. They take pride in the work and I have seen first hand how the management quickly addresses issues or concerns. This is my one stop shop.

Imagine the day before the Christmas Holiday, 2pm, and I find a screw embedded in my front tire. I stopped in to make an appointment for repair and decided it was almost time for a new set.

Like most people, I came in expecting to bob and weave. Negotiate every diagnosis or at least get a second opinion. Its refreshing to have a local place with the integrity and quality that Norms has. It has been five years since we first started tackling my automotive issues and I appreciate how they handle my new issues or simply stand behind the ones theyve already solved.

Amazing service! I had a blowout on my tire that left me stranded on the side the road. I called two other places who told me they could not help me unless my car was towed. I called Norms, and they had someone come pick me and my tire up. They had me picked up and had my tire replaced within 45 minutes. Exceptional service! They will definitely be my new go to for car service.

They are nice guys, but I wasnt too sure about the price for the fixing I needed, so I took my car to a second shop for a second opinion. The second shop did a diagnosis on my car, except they were free, which means I didnt waste $110 like I did at Norms. Found that the second place will also be a bit cheaper on the fix. Again, nice people for the most part, but Ive gotta go with whats cheaper.

Started out extremely happy with the company with my new tire purchase and other work. Needed new struts on a vehicle. I could get 4 struts for $250. They wouldnt install customer parts and instead wanted $1300 to install. I passed. Other vehicle quoted 2 struts and they actually coat more than the dealer! The tires on purchased. ..had a blowout while traveling and the warranty is only good locally. I called about the tire replacement and they want me to carry the old tire back to them to see if there was anything they could do. Tried supporting local business but next time Ill go with a national chain.

Lost our business. Bought 3 sets of tires from them. First went out fast but under warranty they prorated me two tires. The kicker is I was forced to do an alignment for warranty so basically 1 tire cost was prorated at the end of the day. Wife’s car ran out of washer fluid so they are not checking but charging us. Broke my rim caps. Told me they ordered them but never heard back. After going back and forth just gave up. My lug key was left on my tires and almost lost. Went here for their reputation but it is not the same as it has been in the past. Shortly after oil change, truck went to factory for recall and they showed my filter to me, bad shape and never was told anything by this shop. They are just cutting corners.

Their motto is: Nobody treats you quite like Norms! Yup, and never before have I had such a terrible auto mechanic.It took my car in with the Check Engine light on and they charged me for reading the code, and told me that I needed to go to the Dealership and have the Airbags checked out. Really? Thats why the idle of my car spikes up and then cuts out at will is because of Airbags? I also love that they charge a Shop Fee. $10 on top of $120 Labor.This was one referral I wish I had not taken from a friend. My other mechanic doesnt run me through this hassle.I wont even go into their $90 Diagnostic charges. Take your car to a Real mechanic, not the money hungry types.

The old Norm the Tire Man is gone. After years of taking cars to them I will no longer darken their door. They replaced a tire on my car and severely damaged the rim.

My husband and I just returned from a quick vacation in Arkansas. We had a very full itenerary of places to go and see over a short stay. Thursday night, on our trip to Bentonville, my car started making a horrible sound. I was fearful that the brakes were going bad. I called Norm first thing on Friday morning. The representative was extremely concerned and considerate and got our car in quickly and took care of the issue! Norm’s The Tire Man saved our trip! We are most grateful! Best service EVER!!!
