INFO: I used to work at a garage, so I know what I'm talking about.

I've been using Advent Automotive since I moved to Farmington 8 years ago. Every time I've had a…read morecar problem, they're my go-to experts for anything car related. The owner's are helpful in explaining what might be the specific issue with the car. And they've always explained the procedures needed in laymen's terms to me. A year ago, I need a set of tires and after price shopping tires at a few tire stores, on my way home, I stopped by Advent, and they were the best price that I found for the size tires I needed.

Service is always excellent, never had a bad experience. I wouldn't take my cars anywhere else.read more

A friend recommended this place when we were looking for somewhere honest to get our annual…read moreinspection done. We've now had our car inspected there twice, and also had some repairs done there. They are very honest with the inspections, they tell you what is wrong if anything and let you know if it is urgent or just something you should do sometime soon. They let us know that our brakes were getting to a point where they should probably have work done on them soon, and we scheduled that a few weeks later. For any work or inspection you bring your car in first thing in the morning, then wait till they call you to let you know it is done. You can't make an appointment at a specific time. How long it takes varies by how many other people got there first and how complicated what your car needs done is. If you're there without another car to go elsewhere, I suggest you take a nice walk down to the water while you wait.

I had a slow leak and the first dealership I went to recommended a whole new tire, which, including labor, was pretty darned pricey. One of the mechanics there took me aside, though, and recommended Cars Need Tires. I went, and bang: instant service, and honest. No, I didn't need a new tire. It was a simple patch job. One, two, three, the job was done, and the price was so low I could barely believe it. How often nowadays do you get your car serviced with no waits, no delays, and a price you're happy to pay? It happened to me at this place, and you can bet I'll be coming back. Five stars easy!

I don't live in Rochester, but when I rolled into town wth my 15-year-old Subaru, the exhaust system (resonator and exhaust pipe) just fell apart. I could tell it was busted because suddenly my meager 2.6 liter engine sounded like it was revving for a Nascar race. I only had a day in Rochester to burn, so I set an appointment for 8am at the nearest Mavis which seemed to be the safest bet for getting a quick turnaround. When I arrived on the dot at 8am, they informed me they didn't have an exhaust mechanic and redirected me to Cole Muffler (also a Mavis branch) across town. When I got to Cole/Mavis, I was greeted by Tyler (? I think) and he let me know that they would inspect the car and let me know ASAP what needs to be done. After 20 minutes or so he escorted me to the car and pointed to the exact parts that were failing (rusted) and why they should be replaced. He gave me the option of letting the less rusted pipe stay. No upsell. I opted for the full replacement because it was time for this car (16 years old). He told me it would be 1.5-2 hours so I took a long walk. When I got back the car was in tip-top shape and the bill was less than I feared. They charged for parts plus $160 for labor. This included a new resonator and new exhaust pipe. Didn't need a new muffler. Total was about $650 including labor. I really appreciate this branch of Mavis/Cole for attending to the needs of my car in such a professional manner, and on the spot when I needed to have the car for other business in Rochester. This branch brings a positive vote of confidence for Mavis, even if it isn't on their main sign.

It was the only issue as on both may 18th and June 5th I got a code read and that was the only code that came up. I got it "fixed" at Cole muffler June 6th and the car was ready for me June 8th. I leave and immediately when I turn the AC on the car starts shaking. I went to go get it fixed and they quote me 500 dollars and they said that both me and two code readers just didn't notice this issue that they say has been here all along. They say a catalytic converter "technically" wouldn't cause an issue with the radiator fan, turns out although rare it can! Regional manager said a radiator fan wouldn't show up as a code and then once I said hey I googled it he pivots and said oh well it would if only blank happened. I told him hey I can show the code readings I did and he said he didn't want them. I had a lady on the customer service line say it's sort of expected that when u get work done that something might happen? This (in my opinion) made me wonder if that's what they do to get more work. If you're hoping the Mavis Discount Tire relations makes the work safe I would heavily warn you to not risk it. I habe a warranty for the catalytic converter fix that covered bad workmanship and steve told me he didn't know what he wanted me to do. Okay so I got it checked at another place and the issue could not have been here all along, so they were lying! Cole Muffler told me the issue was the radiator fan and in the two days that I left the car there, just to be told by Steve the issue was not his problem the radiator module got affected as well! A radiator fan is not something that you can just drive for months or even weeks and have your car be okay!
