Tri Service Station

We buy old cars and keep them on the road by having the repaired when issues arise. A friend recommended Rocco to us in 2001 when he was still at Queen Street West, just up the street from where we lived. We have used him every since.
Rocco’s manner is fabulous, he is honest to a fault, very skilled at fixing our cars and absolutely honest.
As a woman, I have often gotten the «silly woman» treatment when I needed to go to a car mechanic. Not so with Rocco! He is a pleasure to deal with and his work is fabulous.
He has also test-​driven our cars at the end of the day to ensure that the car is running at its optimum after he fixed it and frankly, I rather have him do that then getting in the car with my child and not having had the car test driven.
We are clients for life! Even though we now live across town in the east-​end.
I would recommend Rocco and Tri Service Station any time.

I’ve been taking my car to Rocco at Tri-​Service for years, since he was on Queen St, across from CAMH. I am not a car savvy kinda gal, but I’m also not stupid, which is how mechanics usually treat me.
Rocco has always been kind, respectful and honest with me.
I’ve called him early in the morning in a panic, and he’s always been helpful. I’ve called him when I was stranded in Mississauga, and he’s waited around until after hours to help me out.
He’s tried fixing my AC… a few times… and can’t seem to get it. But, he stopped charging me for all his attempts, and eventually admitted defeat. I think that’s pretty honest for a mechanic!

Let me put it this way…
… the so-​called «new rebuild» engine I replaced in my previous car turned out to just be a leaky, old engine from another one.
… while installing it, they ruined the transmission in the car and expected me to pay for the replacement.
… the mechanic drove my car for his personal use, ostensibly «to test it» without my prior consent, and when it stalled (because of his faulty work), he left it on the highway. Police tracked the license plate and called me. Mechanic called me later, asking me to take time from work to help him get it out of impound. At least he paid for that.
You’d do better with a do-​it-​yourself manual. It’d be cheaper on you too.
