Mavis Tires

My car was shaking so I took my car to my local repair shop. He told me that the steel belts have shifted in all four tires. Since the tire was bought just a little over a year ago and were under waranty I decided to bring the car back to Mavis. Mavis denied that the steel belts had shifted and all that was needed was the tires to be balanced. They balanced the tires and told me they were good to go. Two weeks later my front tire blows out on a main highway.\r I brought the car back to Mavis where they stated that the tire blew from normal wear and tear and the mechanic in his shop missed the signs of possible trouble.\r These were 70,000 mile tires and should not have blown out like this. THey said the only possible solution was to give me two no-name tires for $150.00 and that they were eating most of the cost. They even had the audacity of charging me for balancing and alignment.\r I think they should have not charged me being that I would not be in this position if they didnt mess up.\r Needless to say I am stopping the check so the only cost I will have is the $35.00 check stop fee. Let them come after me for the money I will not pay no matter what the outcome. \r Please go to any other place but don't go to Mavis of Syosset.\r \r more

HORRENDOUS SERVICE! STAY AWAY! I took my car there to get new tires. They put the new tires on but said that the car also needed new front struts, sway bar links, and rear shocks. UNFORTUNATELY, I had them go ahead and do the work they claimed needed to be done. After $1,500 worth of work the front end made a horrible knocking sound since the day I drove it out of there. I took it back and they said that they couldn?t find anything wrong. As the knocking in the front end persisted I decided to take it to ford. Ford found that the front left strut that Mavis installed was missing pieces and that the sway bar links didn?t appear to be replaced at all (old and rusty) and they were extremely loose. After weeks of driving around in a dangerous car and being inconvenienced with taking it in to different service centers, Mavis only offer ?to bring the car in and we?ll have a look?. I offered to bring in the old sway bar links they supposedly replaced and wanted a refund. I never want Mavis touching my car again. They offered no refund. TERRIBLE SERVICE! Cons: Terrible Service more
