Mavis Discount Tire

I brought my vehicle in to be checked out due to noise I was hearing. The manager told me I needed shocks. As soon as I left the place, I had the same noise. No change at all!!! I called up super angry. I just paid 1k for all 4 shocks that I did not need. He told m...e to bring it back. They then told me after I left it there that they fixed a tie rod end. I left the place. The same exact noise. No change at all. Were they angry at me? I don't know, but about a month later, my left rear tire came off and thank God I was not traveling fast, or I would have been killed. Stay away. They are not honest. It turns out I had engine mount problems. That was the only problem with the car. Read More

Mavis Discount Tire is a ripoff and they lie to steal your money!! Do NOT do business with them! I had a tire checked by a mechanic since it had a very slow leak in one tire on my car. He put the tire in a tub of water and saw a slow leak from a nail in the tread. My me...chanic was leaving on vacation and said he does not fix tires for leaks. So I went to a local Mavis Discount Tire store to get it fixed. The criminals at Mavis told me it would cost only $20 to plug the nail hole in the tread. Two hours later I was billed $180 because they lie and said there was a hole in the sidewall of that tire but another tire had a nail hole in it. They said they sidewall of the tire cannot be plugged so they had to replace the tire and patch the other one. I had to pay the bill to get my car back from these crooks. Then when I paid they made me sign the receipt for the work with some disclaimer to release any liabilty against them - or else they would not give me back my car even though I paid the Read More

I had just had my vehicle inspected, and the mechanic said I would need a rear brake job soon. Fronts were fine, and I had checked them myself. So I went into Mavis for their $80 disk brake special to do a rear brake job and to resurface the rotors, which was $18 extra ...apiece. Then I got a phone call saying that I needed brand new rotors because they were too thin to resurface, and a brake job on the front brakes, also with two new rotors - each new rotor at $80 apiece. So, what was going to cost me $80 plus a few extras was ballooning into a $480 plus job, with all that extra work absolutely NOT needed. The rotors were all within spec for resurfacing, but I don't think they ever do that. It helps to know what you really need before you go in, or they'll definitely take you for a ride. Read More
