If I could give this place zero stars, I would.
My father took his Chevy Equinox to Mavis to have two motor mounts replaced. After their inspection, they claimed it also needed control arms, rear shocks, CV axles, and an alignment. Over $3,000 later, he left with more questions than answers.
The technician who worked on the vehicle told my father they replaced two motor mounts and even showed him the old parts. Yet somehow the invoice charged him parts and labor for four motor mounts. When he asked for an explanation, no one could give him a straight answer.
To make matters worse, he was quoted three different labor rates by three different employees: $175/hour, $165/hour, and $155/hour. How does a repair shop not know its own labor rate?
When he finally spoke with the general manager, he expected professionalism and an explanation. Instead, he got arrogance and disrespect. Rather than walking him through a $3,000 invoice, she dismissively told him to "add it up himself." Apparently, asking questions about a bill you've paid thousands of dollars for is too much to ask.
Customer service doesn't stop once they've got your money. If your employees can't consistently explain what work was performed, what the labor rate is, or why a customer is being charged what they are, something is seriously wrong.
This was one of the most frustrating experiences my father has ever had with an auto repair shop. Based on what we experienced, I would never trust Mavis with another vehicle and would strongly encourage anyone considering taking their car there to get a second opinion and carefully review every line of their invoice before paying.
*****UPDATE*******
Mavis tire responds with a generic copy and paste suggestion on how to resolve my issues. Surprise surprise.
Your response asks me to contact customer service, but I already did. I spoke with your general manager, and my concerns were dismissed rather than addressed. I was given conflicting labor rates by multiple employees, questioned charges for work that wasn't performed as represented, and left the conversation feeling that my business and concerns didn't matter.
Suggesting that I call customer service again only proves that my review wasn't actually read. I already followed your recommended process, and it led nowhere. Instead of posting a generic response, Mavis should investigate the issues I raised and hold its management accountable for how customers are treated.
At this point, your public response appears to be more about protecting your image than resolving legitimate customer concerns.
