Review content:
I would not recommend this place to anyone, especially those who have limited automobile knowledge. I took my car to Midtown Tire to get the oil changed and have the brakes checked. They called me at lunchtime and told me that I needed to have a belt changed. They said the belt was cracked and worn. I normally take my car to a family friend to have that kind of maintenance done, but because of the convenience factor I figured I would just let them handle it. \r
\r
I picked my car up and immediately noticed that it was acting funny. Every time I stopped at a stop light when the A/C was on, the car would die....I took my car to my mechanic after all of this and he said that the belts DEFINITELY DID NOT need to be changed (he checks that every few months when I take my car to get service). My mechanic said the not only did they perform unnecessary maintenance, but they did it poorly (they also charged me $165 to change the belt).\r
\r
A few months later I was in the city again and had another car problem, but this time it was just a screw in a tire. I figured I would give this place one more chance by letting them repair a simple tire puncture. The screw was right in the middle of the tire, so I figured there would be no problem. We got a call from them a few hours after we dropped the tire off and they said that the puncture wound was too large to patch and they recommended we purchase a new tire (~$100). I new that was a load of BS and they were just trying to make a quick $, so we picked up the tire and took it to the NTB in Decatur. They fixed the tire in 10 minutes and didn't charge us anything.\r
\r
Bottom line - this place has unethical business practices, overcharges for maintenance and repairs (they wanted $25 to fix the flat), and performs lousy service.\r
\r
I have never written a review about anything before, but this place was so bad that they inspired me to let others know how truly lousy they are.
Pros: They gave me my car back when they said they would....
Cons: They overcharged, they created new problems, they are dishonest, they failed to fullty address and repair my car....the list goes on.
