I'm new to the Forest City area, so still learning the businesses that will be my "go-to" spots…read more You know, those places where you find that you're treated like a real person, instead of just a potential sale. I've had the opportunity to use Broadway Tire Service a couple of times in the last few months, and that's exactly what I've found there. Both, in person and on the phone, I've found friendly service, and time and helpful information. On both visits to the business, Jacob was quick to access the situation, and make recommendations of what was needed. I never felt like he was trying to upsale anything, or try to take advantage of the situation. As a matter of fact, in both instances, we left spending less money than expected. All of that, combined, is what makes loyal return customers, and defines a "go-to" business. And that is Broadway Tire Service.

After a vet visit that tugged on all the heartstrings and a 4-hour drive filled with snacks, questions, and one thousand "Are we there yet?"s, we were running four hours late to our campground reservation. Naturally, because Murphy's Law never takes a day off, 30 minutes before arrival -- bam! -- flat tire. Cue panic. Cue grumpy kids. Cue that feeling of "this is how horror movies start." But then -- cue MAVIS, our real-life roadside heroes. We rolled into Mavis with a tire that was flatter than our energy levels, and within minutes, Nichole and the team had us back on track. They quickly diagnosed the issue -- a bad valve stem -- fixed it with professionalism and care, and most importantly, made sure we were safe. They didn't just patch a tire; they patched a day that was dangerously close to falling apart. So THANK YOU to Nichole and everyone at Mavis. Your kindness, speed, and smiles made a huge difference to a tired family just trying to make it to their vacation. You turned Murphy's Law into a minor speed bump, and for that, we are truly grateful. Highly recommend these folks -- not just for your tires, but for your peace of mind.

Bought 2 new tires. They didn't balance them properly. I took my car straight back to them and…read morethe mechanic told me that my wheels were bent. After asking why he would send me down the road knowing my wheels were bent, he offered to put the new tires on the back. ??? After pleading again to rebalance them and asking that he clean his greasy hand and fingerprints off the rim, they got rebalanced properly. He rolled the car out and said it was his fault for not balancing them properly. (Good for owning it, but you should have done that the first time). When I asked him why he told me my wheels were bent, he didn't have an answer. So I asked again for him to please clean off the greasy prints on the wheel. All in all it got fixed, the car rolls smooth, but I will NEVER go back to that place knowing he lied straight to my face in front of his manager with no explanation or remorse.

Then Tuesday it happened again, but this time discovered that it had a roofing nail in it and because it was in the sidewall it couldn't be repaired. First I went to the Chevy dealership, since this is where I got my tires before and I thought I had the roadside tire protection (not the case), so they gave me a quote to order a tire ($190.xx). I called Walmart, they had the same tire in stock, took less than half an hour from the time I checked in to when it was ready to be picked up, and it was a lot cheaper too ($141). was super helpful.

That it was built before the 1940s. That is not a cop out to adhering to Ada guidelines. We will be following up legally in this matter. As this is discrimination, and across the street we dealt with the exact same problem of being denied restroom access. That's a big corporation. But you're a small business, and you should have accessible restrooms and a handicap ramp. Neither do you have. We will make sure that this changes. A person that's disabled shouldn't have to fight to use a restroom in an area that knows people will be waiting. It should be large enough to be used. There should be a ramp so there's not a constant struggle. There are laws in place for this purpose. Have some respect.

I figured it was worth driving back to Rutherfordton to get exceptional service and I was not mistaken. Michael is one of if not the best service and store managers I've ever come across. He told me to bring it by and they would work me in to take a look. He recognized The fact that we are about to drive back to Charleston South Carolina the next day and got me and quickly, found the problem, and fixed it efficiently and effectively. They fixed the tire, had some "leftover wax" and buffed out some of the scratches on the fender and rear bumper at no charge. I recommend Cowan to anyone and everyone that has the misfortune of needing car service of anytime in the Lake Lure, Rutherfordton, North Carolina area or anywhere within 100 miles!

I am also a very loyal customer. I recently received a quote from the shop I have been using for the last 5 years (as long as I have owned my current car), that seemed somewhat excessive. I did some research and my thoughts were validated. So I did more research and found Cowan Tire and Auto. They had too many stellar reviews for it to be a fluke so I gave them a call and explained my situation. Even though they were slammed (as good shops always are) they said if I could drop the car off they would try to work it in to take a look and give me an estimate. I was prepared to leave it there for 2 days just to get inspected. I got a call at the end of the day with a report on the issues. My mechanic had recommended back brakes, new parking brakes and brake flush and gave a quote that was over $1300. Cowan gave me a quote for HUNDREDS less that also included new front brakes. On top of this, they took the calipers apart to clean and lube them so they did not need to be replaced. AND they did all this work the very next day because the car was already taken apart from the inspection. I am beyond grateful for their honesty, integrity and all around great service. They have earned all my future business as long as I live in the area and I will certainly be shouting about them to anyone looking for help with their car. 6 stars
