S M D Automotive

This place is great. They loaned us a 2^nd hand tire while we waited for new tires to be available, and sold us some new tires at a good price. There was zero hard sell and lots of great service.

We were driving the 99 from Clinton to Whistler, and our brakes started to overheat and smell burnt by the time we got to Pemberton. Since our van is 12 years old and not serviced that regularly, we wanted to get the brakes checked out to make sure there were still pads left and that nothing was dangerous.
We arrived around noon, when everyone was taking off for lunch, but they still managed to check it out within a couple of hours. The waiting area had a comfy couch and lots of reading material.
Turns out everything was fine, and it was just plain overheating. They charged $ 30 to do the check, which I thought was more than reasonable, especially since they got to it right away, and they didn’t try to upsell anything, like telling us we should tune up or replace this or that while we were there.
