Oil is the lifeblood of every standard vehicle on the road. It's crucial to regularly check your oil and schedule oil change service for your car to ensure it runs properly. Regular service also allows us to check for leaks in your engine that could shorten your vehicle's lifespan and lead to other avoidable problems.
Rotating your vehicle's tires is important for maintaining and managing treadwear on your tires, and in some cases is required in order to preserve your tires' warranty.
We can service, replace, and repair exhaust systems, catalytic converters, tailpipes, and mufflers. Ensuring these systems are working properly is key to elongating the life of your vehicle and maintaining optimal performance.
Proper wheel and tire alignment helps your car's tires last longer, increases fuel economy, and improves your vehicle's handling. Our highly-trained tire alignment experts are ready to provide you the reliable, quality service you need to get back on the road.
Your vehicle's shocks, struts, and suspension are key components to ensure your vehicle's performance and a more comfortable ride. As such, it's important to properly maintain these components on your vehicle.
Nothing ruins a day faster than a dead car battery. Many factors could lead to your car not starting — a bad battery, failed alternator, or worn-out starter are just a few examples.
Our highly-trained auto technicians and mechanics have decades of experience diagnosing, repairing, and replacing worn out car batteries. We understand how important a reliable car battery is for your car or truck to run and operate reliably. Every car battery replacement and installation we perform uses trusted brands and comes with a limited warranty on parts and service.
There's not much worse than getting in your car, turning that key and seeing that little exclamation point icon telling you that you have low tire pressure. But if you just filled up your tires yesterday and you're still seeing that warning, it may be time to replace your vehicle's TPMS sensor.

Needed my brakes done today spoke to Rick and he said to bring it in. Upon inspection Josh the technician found multiple issues with my vehicle. I really needed it done the same day and time was an issue because I brought it in kind of late. Incredibly Josh was willing to stay late to complete the job! Being a holiday weekend I was so grateful! Rick and Josh saved the day, definitely recommend Mavis!!

My husband took our GMC to Mavis for an alignment and oil change. They kindly fitted him in on a tight schedule and we are so grateful. Lou was very nice and professional and offered great customer service. Despite our last minute appointment they were efficient and he didn't have to have to wait long. They also offer reasonable prices and we will be using them in the future for our car needs . Thank you so much Lou !

I want to say what a great experience I had in a not so great situation. My car ended up needed some more expensive major front end work. Lou was on it the day I had it towed in, ordered parts and was looking for parts that saved me money even with having to order the BMW parts they saved me so much money if I had gone to a BMW dealer. For a feel a more
Thorough and Quality job. They were both excellent keeping in contact every day with what the status was with parts and had it done the day the parts all came in. I felt the honesty and care they put into my car is somthing is so hard to find . So thank you guys again for making an awful experience so much better knowing I could put all my trust in Lou and Rick! I’m
So glad I discovered them!

I had an excellent experience at Mavis Discount Tire in Downers Grove, IL. The staff was professional, honest, and took the time to explain everything about my alignment. They carefully adjusted my Nissan Leaf and showed me the alignment results instead of just handing me the keys and sending me on my way.
What impressed me most was their attention to detail. The technician explained why a follow-up check might be beneficial after driving for a while and made sure I understood the work that was performed. It’s rare to find a shop that is both knowledgeable and willing to take the time to answer questions.
The car drives great, the alignment feels much better, and I left feeling confident that the job was done correctly.
I highly recommend this Mavis location in Downers Grove, IL to anyone looking for honest, professional service. Thank you to the entire team for the outstanding work!
