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.

I was ready to give this place a 5 star review. Even after they initially tried to charge me $100 more than what I was quoted by them online. They fixed that and matched the price so no big deal.
The service was quick enough but here's the issue. They BROKE off one of the lugnuts and part of the bolt to my rear tire.
Again, things happen EXCEPT that they never said anything. They didn't tell me they broke it but rather just let me drive off with one less fastener point on my wheel.
I only noticed it later that night when I got home and it caught my eye. And here's why I knew it was them that broke it off and not something all ready broken. There is no rust or dirt on the broken bolt, so it's not like it was exposed to the weather for any amount of time. And second, if it was broken ahead of time, it's reasonable for them to say 'FYI, you do know your missing a lugnut on your rear wheel right?'
At the end of the day, you can't trust this shop. Go at your own risk knowing that they will hide their mistakes and hope you won't notice. At best it's an inconvenience and cost to you, at worst your life can be at risk.

Had a loose oil filter after an oil change here.
This could have scrapped my engine. Luckily I noticed it in time.

I bought four tires from here. Within a week, the rear driver side tire was completely flat, and the front driver side tire had a significant leak.
When I went to get the rear replaced, they attempted to charge me the full price of a new tire (they argued that the flat tire was driven on while flat so they couldn't tell what happened-- but all I did was reverse three feet to give myself room to change the flat tire). Then, they never checked my front tire-- so I have to go AGAIN to get that one looked at.
Then, even when I asked to keep the flat tire (to look it over myself), they refused to give it to me (trying to hide that they were lying). I finally got the tire back (after an argument from the front desk)-- and it clearly was not significantly driven on while flat. There were no punctures, no nails, nothing. Clearly, the installers had screwed up on two of four tires-- and I was left with the bill.
The regional manager (a guy by the name of Josh) lied and evaded (he still hasn't returned my second phone call) to avoid any accountability from this company. All told, I'm down $900 and over five hours of phone calls and waiting in their uncomfortable lobby-- and I still have a leaking front tire.
While I was waiting for them to replace my rear tire, two more costumers came in to complain about things Mavis had done wrong (including one customer whose tire was over 15 PSI over-inflated when leaving Mavis).
I will never never never never never get work from Mavis again. You shouldn't either.
