Went here for my brand new vehicle's first oil change on 08/17/25. The young man made a point to tell me 3 times they'd reset the service needed notification. Less than 10 minutes after I left, the notification came back and stayed. My gas mileage wasn't normal and the engine didn't sound quite right. Today, 11/15/25, I needed an oil change and went to my regular place. I had them check to see if Mavis had actually changed my oil in August. They absolutely did not!! Oil was dark and the factory filter was still on. No wonder the service notification stayed on. This Mavis location charged me $97.10 for an oil change and tire rotation and only rotated the tires. Do NOT go here if you care about your vehicle!!!

My husband and I were on our way to a Panthers game ( on a Sunday) and realized our tire was going flat. Not sure of who would be opened, we googled and found Mavis Tire. T and the whole Sunday crew were wonderful and got us back on the road with plenty of time to make it the game!!
Thank you guys so much!!! You are the best!

I can’t say this enough THANK YOU to James, Jerry, Isaiah, and Te’Andre at Mavis Tire & Brakes on East Marion St. in Shelby, NC! I had a nail in my tire and was completely panicking, but these incredible men immediately noticed something was wrong and rushed to help. They repaired my tire quickly, checked on me, and made sure I felt safe and reassured before I left.
When people say men don’t always recognize what postpartum emotions look like, they did. They saw that my tears weren’t just about a flat tire, but about feeling overwhelmed. Their kindness, understanding, and genuine care meant the world to me.
They didn’t make it about business; it was about me, asking if I was okay, reminding me to breathe, and ensuring my car was safe to drive. That level of compassion and professionalism is rare. These men now have a forever customer, and I’ll recommend them to everyone I know.
Thank you again, Mavis Tire & Brakes, for turning a stressful moment into one filled with comfort, care, and true humanity. I am beyond grateful!
