Honest auto repair for Kent drivers, out Route 5 in Cortland.
Kent is a college town with no shortage of traffic and no shortage of places to get an oil change. What brings Kent drivers out the Route 5 corridor to Super Tire & Muffler in Cortland is simpler: a family shop that looks the car over, calls you with a written estimate, and waits for your go-ahead.
- ASE-Certified Technicians
- Free Estimates
- Financing Available
- NAPA Auto Care Center
- Family-Owned Since 1980
A lot of life in Kent moves along the corridor between Portage and Trumbull counties: people who live near Kent State and commute east toward Warren or the Lordstown area for work, and families whose errands regularly cross the county line. State Route 5, the road our shop sits on in Cortland, connects that whole corridor. If you already drive it, we are on your way rather than out of your way.
Kent is also full of student cars: older sedans and hand-me-down SUVs that need honest attention, not an upsell. Parents tell us the same thing again and again: they want a shop that will put the car on the lift, find what is actually worn, and talk it over with whoever is paying the bill. The work starts on their go-ahead. That is how Super Tire & Muffler has operated since the Freemans opened it in 1980. We are ASE-certified, a NAPA Auto Care Center, and we work on all makes and models: tires, brakes, exhaust, oil, A/C, and engine diagnostics under one roof.
Hours are Monday through Friday 8am to 5pm and Saturday 8am to noon. If you commute past Cortland anyway, a morning drop-off and evening pick-up usually works cleanly. Call (330) 638-7600 and we will plan it with you.

Kent drivers ask.
What folks from Kent want to know before they come in.
- Do you serve Kent, OH?
- Yes. Our shop is on State Route 5 in Cortland, and we serve drivers from across the corridor between Portage and Trumbull counties, including Kent. Many of our Kent-area customers already commute this direction. Call (330) 638-7600 and we will set up a time that fits your drive.
- My son or daughter is at Kent State and the car needs work. How do you handle that?
- We see this all the time. Have them bring the car in, or call us first. We will inspect it, write a free estimate, and go over it by phone with whoever is making the decision. The work waits for that go-ahead. No surprises on the bill.
- Is it worth driving from Kent instead of using a shop in town?
- That depends on what you want. If you commute toward Warren or Lordstown, we are on your route, and you get a family-owned shop where the estimate is free, written, and explained right over the phone. Plenty of people decide that is worth the drive.
- Can I drop the car off in the morning and pick it up after work?
- Yes. We are open Monday through Friday 8am to 5pm, and drop-offs around a commute are one of the most common ways our Portage County customers use us. Call ahead so we can have the bay ready.
- What tire brands do you carry?
- We are a Continental, Cooper, and Goodyear dealer and can source other major brands. Tell us the vehicle and how you drive it and we will lay out the options without any pressure.
- Do you offer financing?
- Yes, financing is available for larger repairs and tire sets. Ask when you call or come in and we will walk you through it.
- What if the car cannot make the drive?
- Call us at (330) 638-7600. If the vehicle is not safe to drive, we can help you arrange a tow-in to the shop.
