Services
Although we can fix any mechanical problem, the key to saving your time and money is routine maintenance. Pawlik Automotive offers the best maintenance program in the city. We give you a detailed estimate BEFORE we do any work and never charge you more than the most recent estimate. Pawlik Automotive is authorized to perform maintenance on new and leased vehicles.
Maintenance is performing services at a routine interval to keep your vehicle reliable, safe and economical to operate. Every vehicle manufacturer has a maintenance schedule that outlines their recommended service intervals. We follow this schedule; however, where we find their maintenance recommendations deficient we will suggest additional services to keep your vehicle in its best condition and avoid costly repairs.
Hi, my name is Alison and I am a client of Bernie Pawlik, Pawlik Automotive for about 13 years. I always wondered if the recommendations I got from mechanics were honest and or whether or not I was being taken advantage of because I couldn't necessarily understand or refute some of the recommendations.

My Volvo Service centre told me the earliest they could get me in for an engine coolant issue would be two weeks. After searching for other Volvo repair shops in the city, Pawlik came highly recommended. I called them and they were able to get me in the next day, WITH a courtesy car to use while my car was in the shop. They had a part ordered from Toronto which came in the next day and my car was fixed the moment the part arrive.
I am now a loyal customer of theirs.

This was not the best experience I have had at a mechanic shop. It was in fact chaotic the left hand didn’t seem to know what the right hand was doing there was mass confusion over my emailed request, and in the end my sons car broke down on the way home! They were apologetic and made it right by fixing the problem they missed , even though it was described in detail to them.
The owner responded to my complaint very politely and honestly , but I didn’t find the front of house gentleman too helpful at all, when I called to say the car had broken down he seemed completely unsympathetic and glib

I am very impressed with Pawlik Automotive Repair after my first visit for my '03 VW Jetta TDI. Scotty was very helpful and thorough, and did not attempt to sell me any unnecessary upgrades. Prices were reasonable, and staff were friendly. Would for sure come back!

Had a brake issue. Based on positive online reviews, took my car in for a diagnosis. Technician returned a detailed report that I received via SMS and email in the time estimated by the advisor. I've never had any shop, dealer or otherwise, communicate in this way, and I thoroughly appreciated it. I had a quick chat with the advisor and booked a rear brake replacement and front brake service. Final cost was exactly as quoted and I thought it was fair. Communication was great throughout and work took the time they said it would. The owner, Bernie, even followed up a week later by phone to check

Decided to try Pawlik based on the positive reviews I have seen online. Pawlik met my high expectations. They really seem to care about both you and your car. I was also impressed with how knowledgeable the office service advisor was with my make of car. Well done!

Pawlik is a recommended independent BMW shop on Bimmershops.com. Scott was friendly and Edward, the tech, was efficient. They used top quality parts, and gave me great recommendations for potential upcoming service. And, yes, decent savings over the dealer cost. This will be "my shop" for this car. Thanks guys.

Such a seamless experience this morning! My husband took his truck in this morning, after getting an appointment yesterday, was given a courtesy car so he could head straight to work, got a call and an email outlining the issue and full scope and quote for the job and the truck will be repaired in a few hours! Could it get any easier?!! I highly recommend Pawlik automotive
