What Cleveland drivers say
Professional, friendly and honest. A routine oil change was done promptly, with a detailed check of my vehicle. Will be back. Thanks, guys!
Another great oil change and tire rotation appointment. Easy in and out and friendly folks.
This is a hidden gem for oil change and e-check downtown. Service has been so consistent, solid and worry free. Clear communication and no pressure. One of the few car places I feel like I can walk into without fear of being ripped off.
I had my vehicle serviced today for an oil change at Rad Air in Cleveland on Hamilton. Paul provided me with great service. I was even able to arrive late due to a situation and they still accommodated me for my appointment. That goes a long way with me. I appreciate their service and I will continue to recommend them.
It is very convenient because it is in downtown Cleveland, a block from my work. I drop it off in the morning and by the end of my shift it is finished. I took it in for an oil change and asked Paul to check if I needed new tires. He said I could easily wait until the end of the year, which saved me probably $1200 in tires he could have easily told me I needed now. It is nice to have a maintenance garage you can trust!
Fast service and transparent pricing. Definitely going to be heading back there next time my car needs work!
Paul and team were amazing! Excellent customer service and professional work. I highly recommend them!
Reliable, friendly and honest! I tried other shops in the area before coming to Rad Air and I wish I had just started here first. I will keep coming back!
Paul and his team are excellent to work with. They were clear with what they found, providing an estimate and completing the work quickly. Great job!
They always get work done in a timely manner. Prices are reasonable as well. The manager is very helpful and makes the entire process very easy. Highly recommend coming here!
From the time I dropped my car off I felt I was in good hands. When it was explained what was needed and why, I was confident in what I was told. I have no complaints and will return if another concern arises.
Paul and his team have always been professional, prompt and transparent. The location and convenience cannot be beat, and they have always treated me right, never pushing for unnecessary add-ons or repairs like some shops do.
