My mechanic doesn't do alignment so my mechanic did some front end work and Mavis did the alignment. Went great. They didn't strong arm me or hard pressure upsell tactics. Very friendly helpful in and out within hour.

DaShawn was a great help at this location, got 4 tires replaced and an alignment in around an hour right before closing time. He also made sure we got the best price.
