This same patched tire went completely flat hours after I drove home I called Cruz immediately and he said to bring the car back and he'll take care of it.

Had a great experience on this Avis Lube! I needed a simple service in my car - a new inspection but everywhere I went they asked to drop off the car and come back in a few hours. I stopped by this Avis Lube and explained to the mechanic I couldn't drop off my car and if there was anyway he could take me as soon as possible. The mechanic was very understanding and asked another customer if I could go ahead of him. The customer agreed to the mechanics request. When I sat down to wait, that customer said he loved the service there and has been coming there a long time. It must of taken less than 15 mins and I was set and ready to go. Will be returning for any other car services in the future, the staff was friendly and professional and they won me over by going above and beyond. Thank you!!! :) read more

I had a fantastic experience at Avis Lube! I came in for a routine oil change, and everything from start to finish was smooth and professional. The shop was clean, the service was fast, and the prices were very reasonable. What really stood out was the owner, Sonny. He is incredibly kind, honest, and helpful. He took the time to explain everything clearly, didn't try to upsell me on anything I didn't need, and made sure I felt comfortable and informed. It's rare to find a shop where you truly feel like you're being taken care of, not taken advantage of. If you're looking for a place that's trustworthy and efficient, Avis Lube is the spot.

Basically he cut the flex pipe and welded two new 10 inch pieces. He charge me $381.00. Later I went to another muffler shop to check if I paid fair price, they told me they replace the full exhaust pipe for around $165. They overcharged.

I had done business with New Prime a few previous times with inspections and minor repairs and I've always had a positive experience with them. They're honest and straight up with me. Did not try to sell me anything I didn't need and took time to explain what's happening. After an inspection all I needed was a new battery. Price for part was pretty consistent with market and 30 minutes later, I'm done.

Also, I was told that I needed rear differential after so many miles. I looked up Subaru's recommendation, and their info was not correct, in fact it was way off. My tire pressure was worse going in than going out. The right wheels had more air than the left. No, I can't recommend this place. Sorry. Maybe they need to hire more honest, detail-oriented people.

Every local store was closing and didn't want to take me, but they were incredibly sympathetic and understanding, offered to fix right away or if needed put my spare on, even though they were about to close. They were waiting for me when I arrived and were so kind and helpful. Right away figured out there was a nail in tire that I couldn't see, and repaired it quickly at a very reasonable price. I made it home safely for dinner and to put my kid to bed. A few coworkers also recommended this place for this high level of service, work, and cost. Thank you!!!

My old place had a whole area inside to sit and wait. This place does not and I was a little concerned because I have a disability walk with a cane and can't stand for more than a few minutes. Without asking, the owner (I believe it was the owner) grabbed a folding chair from outside on a hot day and set it down inside the store. I was impressed and touched by the gesture. I can't say I won't go back to my old place occasionally but I am do glad to have found this service station close to home
