“Really great automotive shop. The staff is always friendly and helpful. Their service is professional and fast. I highly recommend this place.”

Justin Miller-Clarke • Brake Services at Tronsen Automotive, Thunder Bay

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I recently had my vehicle tinted at 12 Volt Installations and I am extremely happy with the results. The tint looks amazing, was installed flawlessly, and completely transformed the look of my vehicle. The team was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to answer all of my questions before getting it installed.
I would highly recommend 12 Volt Installations to anyone in Thunder Bay looking for window tinting or vehicle upgrades. Great service, great detail, and an overall excellent experience”

“Excellent service! My old lawnmower battery would no longer hold a charge. New batteries were no longer available. At I & M Electric, they opened it up and showed me the bulging cells, then ordered in new cells and repaired it. The cost was reasonable and the lawnmower runs like new! I didn’t need to throw out an otherwise perfectly good machine and buy a new one. Thank you!”

Have your brakes professionally inspected every 20,000 km or during tire rotations

Avoid "riding the brakes" on steep downhills; downshift instead
Don't ignore squealing noises—it's the physical wear indicator warning you
