Our Customer Reviews
I just had oil change completed at Downes. They also inspected my car and confirmed that everything is working, which is great news considering the 270K miIeage. It's great we have this independent repair shop in our neighborhood offering reliable services. They helped me out on other occasions as well. Thank you!

I had bad experiences in the dealership on my car and my cousin Gerry recommended Downes automotive Ltd. In Maple Ridge. The people here are nice and they gave me the real score on what needs to be fixed on my car. I will not hesitate to recommend the Downes Automotive to everyone.

I recently arrived in Haney to visit family & friends, and along the way from Alberta I noticed a slight vibration on my summer wheelset, which had just been mounted. Trevor's guys booked me in for the next morning and balanced all 4 rims, which were all slightly unbalanced. My Audi allroad is now perfectly smooth and once again a pleasure to drive thanks to Trevor and the boys.
P.G. Reitsma Jun 6, 2026
The job was done professionally and quickly, even after I forgot to drop the car off in the morning. I have used Downes over the years with all my vehicles and never been disappointed.

From this older woman's perspective, I received respectful and Fantastic communication and customer service from the staff at Downes. They fixed my air conditioning, an oil change and put my summer tires on for a reasonable price and in only 1 day! I would absolutely recommend these guys.

Great experience with this company. They are fair and honest. These qualities are what you always look for when needing a good mechanic or team to get you back on the road safely. It's hard for me to build trust in this service / industry. I always feel I'm treated well and they only fix what is needed.

Downes was great dealing with my newer truck issues and dealing with the extended warranty company. I will use them again for any future repairs and highly recommend. Cheers Guys
George Bacso May 5, 2022
These guys were great, they kept in contact with me every step of the repairs, offered options that would save money but also ensure a reliable high performance vehicle. I found it fantastic that Downes Automotive offers service on a wide range of vehicles including models that usually require visiting a very specific shop. I would recommend them to friends and family. Thanks Trevor and your team.

Jay Louie Aug 8, 2025
I've been plagued with a intermittent parasitic drain ever since I bought my 2007 chevy silverado 2500hd. I have had it in a few shops and nobody could figure out what was the problem. I read reviews about Downes auto repair and thought I would give them a try. I was thrilled that they found burnt wires up under dash cause by rubbing emergency brake cable. I will take my business to Downes for now on. They were upfront about every thing and I was informed about the progress. Good job guys

Uber provided. They vacuumed my car. Explain everything to the lay man. Provide knowledge. Quick service. They cross all their T's and dot all their I's. Epic service. Been living in the lower mainland for 40 years and been looking for a trustworthy mechanic shop the whole time. I found Downes Auto last year and never needed to look again.

Lance Holcombe Mar 3, 2026
I brought my car in to get my brakes fixed, I was shown what was going on, it was explained to me what was needed (brake pads & rotors). I was told in the office $80 …I am taking this as my extreme misunderstanding because to be very honest, I know nothing about cars, I tried researching different places around d Maple Ridge etc. I came back to get my car (thanks to the wonderful complimentary Uber) and invoice was $791.11 …I was absolutely floored…I left thinking ok $80 but I am assuming here they meant $80 for the parts…as I am not a confrontational person I obviously paid it, I feel like it was absolutely my misunderstanding not the fault of the employees, I just wish I confirmed things because $791.11 blew my mind and totally drained me financially 😭 but car is fixed..I feel safe driving my kids now so it is what it is!
Maegan Gendemann Sep 9, 2025

Done as quoted and fast. Will be coming back with our Infiniti
Steve York Feb 2, 2026
I had the guys at Downes do a pre-purchase inspection and they did a very detailed inspection. It saved me the trouble of buying a car and dumping thousands of dollars into a car that appeared better than advertised.
Shane Yarwood Feb 2, 2026
Got an oil change, they did a good job and were friendly!
Viviana Robinson Feb 2, 2026

Jodie Hallyburton Jan 1, 2026
Amazing service and team. They are honest and very knowledgeable. They tell me what is essential to fix and why and what can wait. And they don’t overcharge. I’m so happy these guys were highly recommended to me.
C F Jul 7, 2024
I brought a 2012 Volvo to Downes that needed an inspection done. The car had been sitting for over a year and needed a couple things. Downes was great to work with. I found they were very honest, sent videos and photos of what was wrong. I found there prices to be very fair. I will definitely be coming back here in the future. If you want an honest mechanic who won’t try to pull strings on you, this will be the team for you. Thank you Downes!
