Provided by YP.comThese guys are great! They could have charged me to take a look at my car, but they didn't. Gary (I think he is the owner) told me he couldn't find anything wrong with the car. He told me what to do if the problem happened again (of course the car wouldn't act up for him). I asked him how much I owed for him taking a look. His response was "I'd love to take your money, but I can't because I couldn't find anything wrong with the car." I took it back the next week for an oil change and they looked at the car again so I would have peace of mind while schlepping the monkeys around. Gary only charged me for the oil change. After researching, it looks like others have problems with cars of the same, but it is something that is missed all the time (wiring issue). I'm definitely going back to Tuffy's when my car needs TLC again.

Provided by YPmobileI had them do a break job on my Santa fe and they did a good job , that was 2015, today I needed break work on my 2007 freestyle and had them do it. I thought that it was a little high but they do a good job. If I have to have anymore work like that I will go there. They do seem to be honest and that's hard to find these days.

Provided by YP.comNot a bad garage you just really have to be firm with them. They always seem to find more wrong with the vehicle than there really is pointing out items that are starting to wear out as being dangerously worn. I've had a number of experiences here and while I let them do the engine or A/C related work, I'm able to do much of the simple work that they point out for Brakes, Radiator, Hubs, and Rotors. They have told me on several occasions that something HAD to be replaced. I got home and took it apart only to find it likely had another 30k miles or more left on it. I appreciate their thoroughness but take the laundry list of repairs that they give you with a grain of salt. Also be sure to ask if there are any alternatives to replacement. They are open to cheaper band-aid solutions but will never recommend one unless asked directly. Overall not bad once you get used to them, their work has always been top notch and never needing additional repairs of the same items once replaced.
