My son attends school nearby Tibbitt's. He had his car repaired at Tibbitt's. Although my son claimed the service manager was very polite they cut his wallet wide open while he was leaving the shop. They are polite thieves. Their website claims they built their business on fair pricing and mechanical expertise. Unfortunately, Tibbitt's is nothing more than another great American RIP-OFF SHOP. When I researched the pricing for parts for the repair, I found that Tibbitt's practice is to charge full dealer list OEM prices for the parts they used. This would be the same cost a dealership would charge for parts if the repair was done and the dealer was into ripping -off their customers. I am sure that Tibbitt's used the same after-market parts that can be purchased at any reputable auto parts store in the area. Here's an example: Tibbitt's charged my son $ 11 for a spark plug $ 152 for a wheel bearing $ 66 for spark plug wires. These are all full list prices if you went to a site for geniune OEM chevy parts. I could purchase the same quality AC-DELCO parts from Advance Auto Parts for $ 4 for a spark plug, $49 for a wheel bearing, $25 for spark plug wires.
Pros: close to college campuses
Cons: unfair pricing,preys on college students money
