It never feels good to complain about a small family business, especially one with nice people…read more Cahaba Tire checks those boxes of kindness and being a local business. While Cahaba tire may be a great spot for tires (cannot comment on that), it struggles for more complicated diagnostics. In this case, brought in the car with a set of lights blinking on the dashboard and reduced braking capacity. A simple google search or a question to AI would have immediately pinpointed even a novice to the fact that this was an issue with the brake booster, simply based on the codes. Yet, the crew here immediately jumped to diagnosis of a faulty battery with great confidence. After inquiring if it could be the brake booster (as I already searched the codes myself), they assured that it's not. Well, "mechanics know best", so I thought. Who am I to argue with them. Thus, paid for the battery, got it replaced and sure enough, all the lights came back on after half an hour of driving. Bringing the car back to them, they acknowledged the misdiagnosis, yet said they cannot fix the issue with the brake booster and it needs to be taken to a specialized shop. However, they did not offer to comp any part of the initial repair cost to replace a battery that wasn't the problem at hand, which would have been a reasonable thing to do from a customer service standpoint. In other words, owning up to their own mistakes and that they wasted a whole day for the customer. Sadly, that did not happen. While everyone was very kind and appeared genuine, the result as a customer is a wasted day without result at a mechanic shop due to overconfidence of the team here and a cost of a battery that potentially did not need to be incurred that day (which there is no way to know for certain now).

I went to have the tires I purchased earlier in the year rotated and get an oil change. Being…read morethere already, I asked if they could replace the O2 sensor under the car that I had previously purchased. I was charged $145.00 to unscrew and replace a simple part. It is a basic task requiring no longer than five minutes. I paid the extreme amount anyway and left. A mile from the shop, the hubcap flew off and passed the car. After retrieving it from the ditch, it was plain to see that someone had busted it. Additionally, the rear hubcap is also broken. After being sufficiently fleeced by the labor cost, an additional cost of thirty-five dollars was necessary to replace the hubcaps they destroyed. I will never patronize them again, and I cannot recommend their services.

We were on our way back to Nashville when our tire started losing air. We first went to Firestone…read moreand they said they could not even look at it until the next day. We drove over to Express Oil and Change and they were able to look at the tire right away and diagnose that we had a problem. They were able to patch our tire and get us back on our way home within 30 minutes. I can't say enough wonderful things about their customer service! I highly recommend them! Greg was the technician that removed the screw from the tire and I think the managers name was Rodney or Ronnie? At any rate thank you so much for getting us home safely! Appreciate your professionalism and excellent customer service!

I was there at 8:00am sharp. The mechanic and parts were not here yet, so I had to wait a bit. The brake rotors arrived, but not the pads, so they had to be ordered and a little more wait. Still finished within a couple hours. The price was a little more than Zi thought he quoted, but not a big deal Would come here again.

He installed a new starter on my vehicle and told me that it had a lifetime warranty. That was not true. He told me to call the vendor where he purchased it from and they would be able to honor the warranty once I give his business name. That was not accurate. He also told me that he could find nothing wrong with my Infiniti and made me pay for a full inspection. Turns out, I found out that I needed a fuel pump. I gave him grace for a while, but was disappointed when he did not honor that lifetime warranty and he was unbothered about it. @Terri, this further confirms your lack of integrity or care for your customers due to this account being under my maiden name.

Mavis in Pelham last week checked out My right rear tire on…read moremy Benz. It actually had a slow leak. They said there was no leak and they tested the tire. Took to another tire shop here in Helena Alabama and they found the leak. When I called Mavis back today and asked if I could get in to get it rechecked there was a long wait. However, I spoke to a girl at the desk when I first took it to Mavis. When I asked the guy if the girl was there at the front desk he said no females worked there. Odd because I spoke directly to a young lady. This place is a joke. Also one of the employees when I first went came in and was using unprofessional language.

And has always had a problem with one going flat constantly had to keep pumping it up. . But when checking out this new problem of shuddering the place she went said the tires were old. Older than the originals that the car had when bought. This company put old used tires on her car. Almost causing a major issue if she didn't realize there was an issue on the road. Would not recommend.
