Unbelievable customer service!! I went to Tuffys a few months back had the best quality service and customer service. I sent my mom there a few weeks ago for a battery and she was amazed by the honest and great customer service. (I didn’t think it was possible to put the words honest and mechanic in the same sentence 😜) Today my mom stopped by for a tire patch and ended up having a pretty serious emergency with her car. They were AMAZING!! They didn’t even have to be because the car was being towed back to the dealership with the warranty. Thank you so so much for taking such great care of my mom. You’re the best!

Tuffy went that extra mile with me! I had a charging problem and they did a comprehensive system check. They spent a good deal of time and wouldnt except a payment for their services. Later on I asked them to replace the alternator and they expeditiously replaced it, as promised. The cost was unbelievably low! Tuffy will be me go to repair shop from now on!

I cannot say enough good things about Chuck and his team. They go out of their way to bring the best service ..honest, reliable, punctual, and obliging. My 3 vehicles and 2 trailers are all part of the Tuffy family! ...a 5 plus star facility in my opinion!

This Tuffy, 6/10/21Actually has the professionalism and care that you dont often see. they make the time to ensure that you have their knowledge and confidence .I took my vehicle in when they just opened, I needed brakes . My wife had a funeral to organize( her brothers, which they did not know ) the man in front( I forgot his name) let me know that there was some 8 am appointments and would have to see how to work me in. The GM /Boss( I assume was in the back office listening, just doing his part at tuffy) The man in front does not need supervising since he is a mechanic of 20 + yrs ( he says, I believe him ) and professional. Anyway the Mech/Tech took my car in the garage in minutes of being there. The GM/Boss ( guy from the back ) was floating in the garage making things happen by his presence ( it works ).The man from the front desk sees my wife show up to pick me up and he approaches us to chat more of the situation and she gets the Low down on her car. We are truckers and see the country being OTR and talk about him being from Wyoming and share stories. Anyway I am impressed and so happy they are right down the street from my house. I believed I was treated with respect and friendliness THEY KNOW CUSTOMER SERVICE ! Thank you Man in Front ( sorry I forgot your name), Bossman and Mechanics/Techs. ( we also got a perk from Bossman )Thank you,sincerelyGlenn / Lisa Orozco

I pulled in with basically a tire ready to be completed flat, while driving I must of punctured one of my new set of Goodyear tires. I walked in and explained what was going on, without hesitation the manager ( great guy ) told me to leave it running and one of the service guys took it into the shop, removed the tire from the rim and patched it. So in a 1/2 hour I went from potential disaster to being so so thankful.Unexpectedly I went to pay and was told, “you’re all set”.......There is goodness still in such terrible times!Thank you guys!!!

This Tuffy location is the best one in SWFL. Its very difficult for me to trust certain chain businesses because I have been burned before. Rest assured this Tuffy in Port Charlotte is professional, on time and skilled on the work they perform. Most important of all the prices wont bankrupt you.

Review №23

Took my friends car in. They put it right on the lift, let us look under the car and showed us all the oil leaks. They could have easily gotten money out of us, instead they were honest and said its time to start looking for another car. Honesty from a mechanic is always the best type of honesty. My friend definitely appreciated the honesty even though he hated hearing the bad news. Definitely recomend Tuffys to anyone wanting an honest shop. These type of shops are extremely rare.

Review №24

I just moved to town and chose Tuffy Tire because of the reviews. After having a great experience with the manager Chuck, I will be a recurring customer. A few days after my tire was replaced I noticed all my other tires had different air pressure. I went back and Chuck explained they dealer over inflated my lease so he leveled them all out for me. That was the kind of nice gesture that made me want to come back.

I cannot thank Chuck and his staff enough for helping me with my daughters car. They went the extra, extra mile to try and fix her car so she could get to college. Chuck always explains whats wrong and he does not up sell you! I sincerely appreciate the effort Chuck puts into helping make sure your car is operating at its best. I have been going to Tuffys for service for 17 years and actually switched to the Port Charlotte Tuffys shop because of the service! Thank you Chuck!

Review №49

I have been going to Tuffys Tire and Auto in Port Charlotte for over 3 years. I first went for an oil change, the price was great, so I thought Id try them out. Chuck helped me, he was kind, friendly, trustworthy and efficient. Those are important traits to me. I have not gone to another mechanic since. Two cars later, a BMW 2 series and Audi, I have purchased 8 tires, 4 for each vehicle, brakes, every oil change and other services. I have NEVER been more loyal to an auto shop and Ive NEVER received better service with A friendly smile, and efficient employees. Kudos to Chuck and his team for exemplary service that keeps me coming back. I have referred everyone in town to them. Thank you!

I have used Tuffy for over 25 Years, I moved To Port Charlotte area in 2017 from Illinois. I contact my Tuffy Rep for previous repairs warranty and She put Me in touch with Dave & Chuck, She also contacted them herself and to be expecting a call from Me, they both assisted Me beyond my expectations and resolved my problem very Quickly and efficiently. I really enjoyed my experience with these guys. If anyone is looking for reliable and honest service Port Charlotte Tuffy is the place to go. I have recommended them to all my Friends and they are enjoying the respect and loyalty as a Customer as well.

Chuck is always so accomadting knowledgeable friendly trustworthy. He always is so precise in his recommendations and know how of all our vehicles. I will never go to anyone but him even though there are other shops. He cares about his customers and service is always spot on. Service has never a problem wait time minimal for walk ins. They only make suggestions if something is wrong. Chuck is more than trustworthy. Very honest people work there And always go the extra mile to make the customers satisfied with the work. I never go anywhere else. Chuck has the place so nice and accommodating to each and every one that walks through the door. He and all the mechanics Are all excellent

Review №59

The guys at Tuffys are amazing. Usually, women get treated differently at auto mechanic shops. That isnt the case at Tuffy Tire in Port Charlotte. I took my vehicle to them to check out an ABS issue it was having. They took a look and knew right away what the problem was. The best part is that it wasnt going to cost four figures to repair (like another shop nearby wanted). Nor did they try up-selling me anything. Impressed with the quickness of the diagnosis and repair, I came back a week later and purchased a new set of tires. They deserved the business and I am happy to have found out about them. Thank you for your kindness.

I moved here three years ago and received an oil change coupon and figured I’d try this place out. Being a female going to a mechanics shop alone i have had my experience of people trying to take advantage of me and charge me an arm and leg for repairs that don’t need to be done. Chuck and the boys saw my brakes were awful and were awesome with showing me exactly what was wrong and helping me out. They are all great guys who really care about their customers and truly cared about my safety. I have lived here for three years now and refuse to take my car anywhere else. If you’re looking for a group of people who are trust worthy and Truly care about your safety and do a great job this is the only place to go. These guys have no idea how much i appreciate them! Thank you chuck and the rest of the crew!

This is the best place I know of for honest repairs and advice. Chuck, at the front desk, is awesome with advice, taking care of business and people. They have saved my family thousands. We have had dealers quote $1200+ and they fix it for $500. The waiting area is clean, with TV, assorted magazines, and even an expresso machine for free. They are prompt on service and getting you in and out.

Fast, friendly and fair pricing. I took my flat tire to a competitors store TiresP..s for repair. After waiting for 45 minutes I was told the flat couldnt be repaired and they tried to sell me new tires. Chuck and the crew at Tuffy completed the job in minimum time. Great Business.....

Review №73

I was in the area on my motorcycle and noticed the clutch cable needed to be adjusted in a bad way. There was no way that I would make it back to my house to make the repair myself before ending up broke down on the side if the road. Im very mechanically inclined and perform most of the work on my bike. What I needed was two 1/2 open end wrenches. My search for a nearby auto shop was on and I was hoping I could find a place that would let me borrow the wrenches I needed for just 5 minutes. Lucky for me I found Tuffy. The manager spoke with one of his mechanics who immediately came to my aid. He provided me with the two wrenches I needed, so I could make the clutch adjustment myself. He stayed there with me and even asked me to be careful to not scratch my gas tank. I couldnt have been more appreciative. Thank you for your help Tuffy Port Charlotte, I made it back home with no more clutch issues. Ill be in for service on my truck soon. You have earned my business with your hospitality alone. I look forward to doing business with you.

The reason I wont rate them a fiveWell I waited for my car and watched how my car sat there for over 40 minutes and no one working on it!When I asked the manager he said the rotors that were ordered were for a deluxe model of my car and not the standardBut funny I never saw anyone delivering any thing after my car was already up in the air. And the mechanic did a ladies oil change while my car was waiting for them so they could charge me 2.2 hours of labor! The whole time I was thereNever ever go back and my estimate was For 680 I paid 693 and the manager had the bills to tell me he gave me a 75 $ discount woman be careful they will rip you off just like sears got caught doing years ago!!!
