You guys worked magic on my coolant system repair! Thank you for getting it done so quickly and doing a fantastic job. My vehicle is 15 years old and my AC has not worked this well since it was NEW! In fact, I have to keep turning it down, it's working so well (@ 96 degrees outside)! Thank you again, Kevin and team!!

I have been to this location multiple times. From oil changes to other multiple other services. Even if it’s nothing major these guys are honest and explain to you what is going on with your vehicle. These guys are great.

Twice I’ve called Tuffy’s when I had a car problem and needed immediate service- both times the team fit me in within 24 hours. I appreciate their customer service very much!

Took my 20 year old Corolla in for some badly needed repairs and when I got it back it ran like it was a brand new car! I could not be happier with it and to top it all off they gave me a ride home and picked me up when they were done. I love those miracle workers!

I have been going to Tuffy's for a few years after buying some kind of a promotional card. I have been very satisfied with the service there and on this last appointment, I am SO glad that Kevin insisted that I buy 2 new tires, especially since I went out of town this past weekend. I came back in on a pretty snow free interstate, but felt much more safer with the new tires! I liked Kevin's directness, politeness and professionalism and he was NOT pushy at all! Just matter of fact that I needed new tires! Thanks, Kev!!!

Again on cross country trips, home to California, we needed service on a auto we purchased. The results were as expected. We think highly of your stall and it’s nice to know that our satisfaction and safety is your goal. Great work. See you again. Even if it is for an oil change. Thanks again

Tuffy Tire & Auto has excellent customer service. We've been taking our vehicles to Tuffy Tire & Auto for several years. One of our vehicles had problems in which other auto service centers could not resolve. Tuffy Tire & Auto was able to locate the problems and fix at a fair price GREAT JOB. I would use and highly recommend them again.

Quick, fast, and accurate diagnostic. I appreciated the great service on my car. They found an oil leak which turned out to be a shock that went bad. No pressure in using their services + they gave me a road side hazard for 12 months. Thanks!

I received a call in which they explained everything that was wrong & what needed to be done & the cost. They were very professional & also caring. I have more work to be done & I will be taking my car back to Tuffy’s for this. Will definitely recommend them to others!

These guys are not only great mechanics; they are truly nice people. I'm 84 years old and making dumb mistakes! Yesterday I showed up for an appointment that was actually for 2 days later and they did the work as though I wasn't there on the wrong day. When I called them this morning to apologize they assured me it was quite all right. Not everyone is that kind but I really appreciate those who are.Vua

The guys at Tuffy are great! I came in for an oil change and tire rotation and they informed me my engine cradle was completely rusted thru. That was a serious problem any other place would have ignored it but they didnt. I have continued to return to the West Des Moines location because these guys know there stuff and are not put to drain ur bank account

The guys at West Des Moines Tuffy made my Saturday so much easier than it could've been. I'm so thankful for their service. On Thursday I realized BOTH of my headlights were out. I bought new bulbs, but then had other priorities. On Friday morning at 5 am, I frantically attempted to change the bulbs before my commute to work. I messed everything up, including removing clips that were supposed to stay attached to the car. Ultimately, I waited as long as I could for the sun to come up (at least partially) and drove to work without headlights. Saturday morning, the guys at Tuffy fixed all the mistakes I'd made and now I have lights again. They were busy, but took time out to give me a hand. Thanks!

A friend suggested that I try Tuffy Muffler in West Des Moines for a quote for a new exhaust system after I had received a staggering estimate from the local Firestone store. Am I glad I did! The service was friendly, efficient and the quote was literally a quarter of the cost of Firestone's. I couldn't believe my ears when they told me. Not only did I receive a great estimate but they pulled my vehicle back in the garage so I would not have to walk out in the rain. I will be returning to this store for all of my automotive needs.

When my husbands car had an issue, we called and they got us right in. We conveniently dropped the car off at night and by 10:30 the next morning we had an estimate of the charge and the time when it would be ready. They know what they were talking about, made the repairs timely and efficiently, and the service and communication was top notch every step of the way. I will NEVER go anywhere else for my auto repair and maintenance needs. Thanks EJ and John!

I had just found a screw in my tire. I stopped by Tuffy's in West Des Moines on what was a busy Saturday for them. Since I didn't have an appointment George asked if I could leave my car. That wasn't an option so I offered to put on the spare and leave the tire and return later. George said "let's go ahead and do it now". Fortunately the screw had not penetrated the steel belts so no repair was needed. They did not charge me for the time spent removing the screw.

Great experience at Tuffy's! I should have written this review a long time ago! I've been taking my vehicles to Tuffy's for the past several years and they have always done a good job! Last Christmas eve (in the afternoon), me and my son started on a road trip to Kansas City to see our family for the holiday. We didn't get far when I realized my car was overheating. I managed to get it towed to Tuffy's (free thru a service I had with their location). They went above and beyond all expectations and stayed late to fix my car and get us back on the road (thermostat and sensors)!!!! I can't say enough about how much that meant to me and how appreciative we are to have them in our neighborhood! Thanks Tuffy!!!

Amazing! The "Tuffy" team has been my "go to mechanic" for the last several years and I couldn't be more impressed with their customer service and performance! I have a 1997 Jeep Wrangler with over 200K miles that's is still running fabulous thanks to their continued routine maintenance and kind care for my "old treasure"! They work hard to make sure my vehicle is safe and road worthy, while never making me feel like they are trying to charge extra for services it doesn't need. I've referred many friends and acquaintances their direction...you can't go wrong!

Although the sign and website say they open at 7:30 they didn't have a technician able to work on my truck until 8. Wade, the manager, can come off harsh but is a straight shooter and just tells it like it is. He made sure I was taken care of and got to know me ensuring repeat business. They got my truck right in and got to work on it right at 8a.m. Wade and his team had a hard time being short staffed but were on top of everything and I will definitely be a repeat customer.

Every service that has been done for our vehicles, most recently an oil change and tire rotation, has been done efficiently and we have been treated like we are the one and only customer. Love it there!
