Brakes & suspension
Pads, rotors, calipers, struts, bushings. The parts that decide whether your car stops straight and rides flat.
An independent neighbourhood shop on Portland Street. Brakes, tires, diagnostics, and the kind of old-school customer care the chain garages don't bother with.
Section 02 / Services
A general repair shop covering the wear-and-tear list every Etobicoke driver runs into eventually. Bring it in, get a straight answer.
Pads, rotors, calipers, struts, bushings. The parts that decide whether your car stops straight and rides flat.
Punctures plugged or patched, mounting, balancing, seasonal swaps. Walk-ins are fine — call first if you want the bay ready.
Check-engine lights, intermittent vibrations, noises that only happen on cold mornings. We chase the cause before we touch a part.
Wheel bearing assemblies, axles, CV joints. The hum-from-the-corner work that needs a careful hand.
Oil and filter, fluids, belts, batteries. The boring stuff that keeps the rest of the list short.
Electrical, exhaust, cooling, drivability. If we can't do it in-house, we'll point you to someone who can.

Section 04 / Customer notes
West automotive is simply the best. Old school customer care. Knowledgeable about any situation. I have brought multiple vehicles to West Auto and the team of Rob, Steve and Justin is top notch. It may be a family business but it's on the top of what's new and with the experience of the older which the chain garages can't offer. The prices are definitely better than what the chains offer and you get better quality, service and care. And most important to me personally, they take my stress away which is priceless. 5 stars a million times! Thank you, Rob, Steve and Justin!
Chestnuts Roasting · 7 months agoWest Automotive is fantastic! The team is friendly, professional, and really gets the job done right. They made the whole process easy and stress-free, and I left feeling confident my car was in great hands. Definitely recommend them if you want reliable, top-notch service!
Kaya Z · 7 months agoIf I could give more than 5 stars I would. Rob and his team were incredibly prompt with my punctured tire. Did it on the spot and very reasonable pricing. Very friendly and accommodating as well given this was a last minute request, highly highly recommend!
