      They did a great job on my brake lines and were three times cheaper than what I was quoted at Dobbs! Highly recommend them!

      Do not take your car here and definitely not 9725 Manchester Rd. I went here for what I thought…read morewas a simple oil change. I pulled off the lot and my car did a jerking motion like it was backfiring. an hour later the malfunction warning signal and all the dashboard lights came on. My car shut off while in idle three times. I called the shop and drove it back to them and it shut off three times while driving. I was told by the worker they may have knocked wires loose from the maf while taking out the air filter , which was never requested. I told the guy changing my oil I didn't want anything extra but the oil change. The man at this shop said it was nothing they can do even though nothing was going on with my car prior to me bringing it to them. Now my car will barley make it up the street, its vibrating, shaking, and won't stay running. It stops at every light and while sitting. Then they proceed to " offer" me the option to change the air filter "to see if that helps". Little did I know it was not offered to help rectify the damage they caused because o had to pay an additional $30 on top of the $90 oil change. How convenient To "offer" the one item I originally refused as the fix to the problem. This place is sketchy and damaged my car and won't take accountability. This place deserves zero stars

      I had a really good experience here. My car's AC went out (mid July in stl- love that for me) and…read moresearched Yelp for spots to get it fixed. BBAC caught my eye from all the reviews of happy customers, being responsibly priced, and close-ish to my house. I called and made an appointment, they got me in fairly quickly (within 2-3 days). After dropping it off, I received a text with the estimate and okayed it right then and there. I needed a new hose/ ac system. I loved this easy way of communication. It was expensive, but after comparing prices with other spots and doing my research, it was a bit less than what others have been charged for the same. It was ready the next day, and it was so nice to have a fully working ac in the heat again. I've had no issues since. Cars aren't fun to fix and spend money on, but I feel like this was as painless as it could have been. I'd definitely return for services!

      I called Big Bend Auto Center to get an estimate for a brake job--what a frustrating experience…read more First off, they don't give estimates over the phone, which is fair. So, I scheduled an appointment for Thursday. However, the person I spoke with had a really unpleasant attitude. He kept questioning whether I had the right place, repeating, "We're Big Bend Auto Center, not the other Big Bend Auto store." Why would I be calling if I wasn't sure? It came off as condescending. Then he told me I couldn't wait for my car, and when I asked again--just to clarify if I could wait while they did the estimate--he rudely said no. At that point, I decided to take my business elsewhere. If you can't treat your customers with basic respect, why would I trust you with my car? It's disappointing, especially since they have decent reviews on Yelp and Google. I expected better. Unfortunately, my experience was the complete opposite.

I had to replace everything just to make the vehicle safe again. I won't be returning. Chris is the manager hung on me multiple times when I was trying to ask questions. Would not write my concerns down in a ticket. He escalated the situation by losing his temper over the phone and in person. His boss Mark ended up having to take over the situation and even he was bad at handling the situation. I'm pretty sure Mark is part of the system designed to take advantage of their customers.

I called on a Tuesday specifically to schedule break pad replacements on it over the weekend so I could get back to work Monday. I was assured then that if I drop it off Saturday morning it would be done by the end of the of the day. When I dropped it off 7am Saturday I was again assured it would be done by the end of the day. By 4:00 I hadn't heard anything, so I go to pick it up and I'm told it hasn't even been looked at. No call to tell me this either. I planned my whole weekend around this, now I can't drive to work Monday, and my business suffers. I have been a Dobbs customer for a decade plus, spending countless thousands on many different vehicles there. Now I'm never coming back

      STAY AWAY FROM THIS JIFFY LUBE -- THEY DESTROYED MY ENGINE AND TOOK NO RESPONSIBILITY…read more I took my 2017 Ford Escape--my reliable, well-maintained vehicle with ZERO prior issues--to Jiffy Lube on December 19, 2024, for a simple oil change. That was the beginning of a nightmare. Three days later, on December 22, after driving only 37 miles, my car suddenly lost power on the highway and began spewing blue-gray smoke. I was forced to pull over and have it towed to Dobbs Tire and Auto Center. What Dobbs found was shocking: the engine was coated in black, dirty oil, and they drained over 6 quarts--despite my vehicle only holding 4.3 quarts total. The dipstick showed oil filled over an inch above the full line. The mechanic explained that the excessive oil fouled the spark plugs, destroyed the catalytic converters, and permanently ruined the engine. Even after replacing plugs and trying to clean it up, the car died again on a test drive. Diagnosis: engine completely destroyed. I immediately brought this to Jiffy Lube's attention. Their response? Blame everyone but themselves. They claimed they only put in the right amount of oil and pointed fingers at Dobbs--without ever speaking to the mechanic or inspecting the damage. Just outright denial, despite the clear timeline and mechanical evidence. Let's be real: my car worked perfectly before Jiffy Lube touched it. It died 37 miles later, drowned in oil. And now I'm left with a dead engine and thousands in losses. If you value your vehicle, your time, and your money--DO NOT TRUST THIS PLACE. Jiffy Lube's negligence cost me a car, and their refusal to take any responsibility is shameful.
