Rude. Two times I have made an appointment online in the past (within the past 3 or so years) for things like inspections and received a call that their inspector is not in that particular day and to reschedule. Today I walked in with an appointment that I have made online the week before for an inspection and tire rotation. I received at least three emails of confirmation and reminders. I walked in 10 minutes early to my appointment to Anthony on the phone with someone. I patiently waited. After he hung up he continued looking at the computer screen like I'm not there. Being the respectful person that I am I continue waiting for him to finish up whatever he is doing so I do not interrupt. Finally he says "Can I help you?" like I'm a nuisance. I tell him I have an appointment. He tells me his inspector is booked for the day. Confused, I repeated I had an appointment. He tells me again they are booked and that their website does not coincide with what is actually available. WTF. Meanwhile today is my only day off during the week as someone with a full time job and two young children... and I had planned this entire day out around this. No apologies whatsoever. I can't believe it. I walked out saying "Thanks... for nothing." Because it really was nothing. Unbelievable. Convenience of being near the mall but I will never come back to this location but it's not like they need my business anyway. Luckily there are plenty of places that do car inspections. read more

"CHEAT" This is a seat scam shop, after spending $1000 on tire and breaks the guy at the counter told me, my tire rotation is free on my oil change. So, when I went back for oil change my tire was not rotated but on paper, they said it is done. I caught the scam because I had changed only two tires. I will report this to BBB. CCTV will prove that I am not lying. Not coming back or would recommend to anyone. Not going back to Mavis at all, there are a lot of other option. read more

You can set up an appointment for service - so I did. I came in 30 minutes early and the employee that took me in was professional and polite. For purchasing 4 tires and wheel alignment, he gave me an estimate of wait time 2 hours. My appointment was at 9am and they didn't touch my vehicle at 1230pm. It is now 2pm and I ended up waiting from dropping off my kids to school and now someone in my family has to pick them up. Next time I'll go to BJs or Costco. Their specialty is tires - oil change and other service should be 2nd priority. I will never use this Mavis ever again. What's the use of having appointments if you have to wait for more than 4 hours. read more

The staff at Mavis were very professional and helpful. I will definitely use this location again.

I called Mavis on Sunday afternoon in the hopes they could squeeze me in on Monday morning for an oil change and inspection. I was pleasantly surprised to hear that that wouldn't be an issue. I was told that their inspection guy (probably not his actual title) was only there until 1 and that I should drop that car off as early as possible. I promised I'd drop it off between 8 and 830 and said I was in no rush for the car, as long as it was done by the end of the day. I dropped the car off around 8:15 and left my spare key with Anthony, who was incredibly fun to chat with. We talked about the longevity of my car and how they don't make cars like that anymore. He offered me some Halloween candy and said he'd call me when the car was done. My car was done in less than 2 hours. ::happy dance:: read more

fast service. Ryan was very helpful and quick check out. while the tech was fast and got the job done.

I was quoted $975 online for my cars tires and balancing. When I walk in the price they told me was over $1,300. They were charging for all these extras like valves, balancing, and warranty. When I asked the sales associate what all this was and why the price didn't match the online price. First he acted like he didn't know why, then ask I asked more questions he had a condescending attitude and annoyed why I was asking him to run me through these extras to help me decide if I needed them. I just walked away, there so many other places I can go, they should know that. I think it's terrible practice to add on all these extras and not explain why I needed these things. Why would u have an online quote and not match the price in the store read more

I made an appointment for a NYS inspection on a weekday. I chose this location because I figured if the wait was substantial, I could walk to the mall nearby. My first clue should've been the guy rolling his eyes when I didn't have my license plate memorized. I thought no big deal - I'm sure it's annoying asking the same question throughout the day! I was super confused when the same gentleman informed me that my car had failed inspection due to my wipers being worn out, my brakes were "metal to metal", and a rear light was out. When I expressed surprise at my wipers being in bad condition because I had them changed less than a month ago, the guy snorted with derision. He insisted I had to spend over $800 to remedy the aforementioned issues in order to pass the state inspection. When I told him I'd like to discuss this with my husband before going forward, he became even more condescending. He emphasized that if I didn't get this fixed soon, I could get pulled over and ticked as if I don't understand the state laws regarding a car inspection. He also made it a point to state that he was gracious enough to not take off my current NYS safety/emissions inspection certificate sticker off of my car. Further confusion because why would he do that if it's still current until the end of the month anyway. I took my car to the dealership to get another NYS done the following day. I showed them the paperwork that was given to me by the gentleman at Mavis and expressed my concern regarding the state of my car. My car passed the inspection and they found no issues with the windshield wipers, brakes, or rear light. I'm extremely irritated that I wasted $37 to be spoken to condescendingly and pressured to spend money when I didn't have to. I'm extremely aware of the stereotype of dishonest mechanics taking advantage of women but I always try to assume the best in folks. It's deeply disappointing when I actually do experience it though. I'll never go to this location again and this experience has soured me forever to Mavis in general. read more

They gave me a quote. Yet when I was paying they added additional things to the final bill. They did the work without letting me know. Shady thing to do! read more

Do NOT go to this location unless you want your personal belongings RAN THROUGH and STOLEN. I had about $1000 STOLEN from me after I gone to this location to get service on my tire. I arrived there at 2PM and was told it would be a two hour wait, so I waited in my car for this whole duration. I had taken about $200 cash out the bank for my errands that day and had about an $800 gift card in my wallet. I know they were there since prior to arriving at the mavis I stopped at a convenience store to purchase a beverage and was rummaging in my wallet to find a $5 bill but only had 20's. Some of the cash was also not even in the pockets and just in my wallet so that if you unfolded it, it would be right there. I waited a total of 3 hours before my car actually got in the shop. My wallet was left in the center console as I didn't really think they would be inside my car other than to move it in and out of the bay. The service takes another hour and upon receiving the car I realize that a bunch of money is missing from my wallets, my gift card is gone along with its receipt and I start freaking out. I notify the man at the desk and he gets the tech who was working on my car to discuss it with me. He says the only time he was in my car was to test drive it after the service was done, and I imagine this is when he took my belongings. I asked for the camera footage still, just so I could see if anything went down when he was actually working on my car but my guess is I probably wont see anything as the actual theft was when he was driving my car around the block. I know it's my fault for leaving my wallet there for someone to just go through but that's no reason for someone to steal my belongings. I honestly should have called the cops and dont know why I didnt in the moment. I honestly was just so shocked and infuriated at myself for letting something like this happen to me. I'll probably never see that money again but that's life I guess.. Moral of the story is always keep your valuables with you and stay FAR FAR AWAY from this shop. Absolutely ridiculous, completely ruined my week. read more

I was pulling out of target three minutes before they closed and my back left tire was flat. They had no problem seeing me right away, took my car right in and patched it up aswell as checked all my tires and added air to them as well. I was so grateful for I was able to get home safely and they were extremely kind! I was expecting them to turn me away for it was literally closing time and yet they all stayed and helped resolve the problem. Thank you so much! Extremely satisfied customer read more

Place used to have amazing staff. I came here for everything. Now the new person in charge is an arrogant pompous scammer. I decided to just go to a premium dealership. I'll pay more money but at least I know I wouldn't get taken advantage of. Please don't come here. Don't waste your hard earned money. read more

Excellent customer service and awesome quality work by the mechanic Leroy! Leroy goes the extra distance to get the job done in the best way possible. Also, Ryan and David both were extremely helpful. read more

Update***after calling the customer service department I was told the regional manager would reach out to us. Three weeks later, no response. Just stay away from Mavis. This company does not care for their customers. There are other tire service centers. Folks, save your money and sanity. Do not use Mavis. read more

Brought the car in for an inspection at Mavis Tire at the Broadway Mall in Hicksville. They charged us $1500. New tires, that I did not think were necessary with lots of fees and add ons (valves, balancing, warranty etc) New brakes, new shocks, new fluids, new wiper blades etc. All on a well maintained car. Said it would not pass inspection and was dangerous!! The car seemed fine but we had the work done. Looking at other reviews, I guess everyone going in for an inspection will be told they need new tires, brakes and shocks. A week later, the brakes seem low and the car shakes on the highway. I bring it back to get it checked and the salesman was very condescending. Nasty. Said he checked everything himself and The car needed all that work and the car brakes were good. The car is not good. It still shakes. The mechanic said the brakes were ok, but they are still low. Mavis at the Broadway Mall in Hicksville does not not stand by their work. They are salesmen not mechanics. You should not trust them with your car. And do not go there for an inspection! read more

If I can give them negative five stars I would. I will never suggest this location or Mavis to anyone. So my original review was a positive one. What I thought was great trust worthy service was totally not what I got. So I blew a tire, needed it to be plugged. They plug it. While they did that they noticed that the tire I blew wasn't under warranty. Since I'm not a tire expert let's keep this in mind. The guy says he highly suggests me to buy a warranty. He wasn't sure why my other tires were under warranty and not this one. He saw I purchased it a while back from the store. Well a few weeks later I had to bring it in. It kept going flat. I took it to another Mavis tire. They called me and told me I had the ring of death. I needed a new tire. That's the first thing that angered me was the Mavis previous didn't even tell me! So I told them I have a warranty I had just purchased so what would that cover. The guy laughed at me and tells me it's bald. The warranty wasn't covering it. I said I just got the warranty that was told to me to get. After they looked into it they weren't sure why the other Mavis would tell me to buy it. They saw it on their end the date it was purchased. So, they offered me since I've been a loyal customer for years! A ten percent discount. Before that after ten phone calls back and forth the first guy tells me the only tires they have available are $180 to $200 a tire. Well I spoke to someone else a few minutes later and told me they had cheaper ones in stock! But the first guy didn't even offer them to me! So when I tell them to put the cheaper tire on and they confirmed the discount I tell them to proceed. I pick my car up and they didn't even apply the discount. *I was scammed to get a tire warranty on what was a bald tire. I didn't know. Warranty not usable. *I was lied to and scammed into getting a tire with a discount that wasn't applied. *I wasn't told I had the ring of death from the second visit to a Mavis from the day my tire got a flat. the first Mavis vinegar told me. I was told that it was severely dangerous! So I was driving around with something seriously dangerous and the first visit failed to tell me. They told me one pot hole I could of blown out a tire. * then I was told from the second Mavis visit that they had to charge me for the second plug because they weren't the location that did the plug! So I asked oh, are all Mavis discounts under different corporate policies. I called and they are required to fix any issues from any other Mavis. So I was lied to again!!!!! Oh, also they tried telling me the rotated the tires so the one they claimed to be under warranty wasn't the one with the plug! I said no! Because my tires the day before it blew got serviced at ford and didn't need it. So that was another lie! This place is a scam! Make sure you check reviews. read more

I brought my car here a few days ago because I've had a slow leak. They proceeded to tell me the lug nuts wouldn't turn and they wouldn't continue to work because they didn't want to risk cracking the rim. Ok cool, but these are brand new lug nuts not even 1 month old, and your mechanics proceeded to strip the lug nut. That's why it kept spinning, not because of the last mechanic I brought it to and purchased these on my behalf. Also, your employees don't wear masks inside but I'm required to wear a mask to walk in and after I'm already inside you decide to put a mask on? Make it make sense. We've already been face to face, dumb policy. read more

absoutely horrible !! dropped car off for nys inspection call me 10 minutes later saying will not pass inspection due to wiper blades!!! and tires. knew the manager was lying because he said the wiper blades were scratching my windshield. I dont mind being sold items that I need, but don't lie & make stuff up. took car to another shop where it passed inspection without any repairs. I usually go to the mavis in garden city park on jericho turnpike, those guys are great, the one at broadway mall is close to my job. stay away from this place, manager is a lying jerk read more

For the sake of your life, avoid this Mavis Discount Tires at all cost. My boyfriend came in for a oil and tire change but was offered rear rotors change. Change that almost cost us our life. We came in June 2nd for the services and within 400 miles our lug nuts "came loose;" only two were holding on to our front left tire. It's disgusting how a branded car servicing establishment can intentionally not tighten someone's tires, just so they would come back for "maintenance." If we specifically changed our front tires, I see no reason as to why it was loose after 400 miles. Additionally, the mechanic/manager who spoke to us that day was rude and careless. Our leather steering wheel was teared due to his tools and all he can do it offer us a coupon for 2 oil changes. I ideally would like to trade in the car and made a mention as to how it may affect our value. He was nasty and responded that a tear won't lower anything. Even if it doesn't, I wouldn't want my steering wheel to be teared, as it is hard to replace. If I knew that my lug nuts were loosened in addition to the tear, I wouldn't have paid a penny. To the mechanic/manager there: how do you sleep at night? Do you wonder how many accidents you would've or have caused? read more

More than two & a half hours to install new tires which they had in stock. Ridiculous. Prices basically same as other dealers. Nothing special here. read more

Highly recommend!!! Took great care of us! :) Got us news tires super fast and efficiently! read more

Naris was about as rude as they come. I came in to get an inspection and he made up every excuse in book not to do it. Told me false information and then when I came back he retracted his words. He doesn't seem to know what he is talking about yet he mentioned he was the only person I could speak to on the matter. read more

Very courteous and go above and beyond to accommodate individual needs of owner and vehicle. Far better, and less expensive service, than the local Mercedes dealership! read more

I highly recommend that you do not wait for your car at this location. They have only 1 real mechanic. All the rest of them are trainees. You will wait and wait and wait. Tire rotation and oil change... 2 hours and counting. The opposite of Jiffy lube. More like molasses in the winter time. read more

I was heading to IKEA and Target, and I really needed to get my NY State inspection done ASAP so I googled and found these guys. The location really can't be beat for leaving your car and going shopping at the mall. The down side is you really need to have a few hours to kill. Like, a sit-down meal and a movie, or a long IKEA visit plus some clothes shopping. These guys have a lot of customers and they don't work particualrly fast. But they were incredibly friendly and pleasant and they didn't try to sell me anything. All I paid for was the inspection, and once they actually got to it they were pretty quick. All said and done this was a positive experience. I'd definitely consider going here for tires if I needed them, and would gladly go back for an inspection but I can't say I'd use them as my go-to mechanics. read more

Was rather pleased with the service at this Hicksville location outside the Broadway Mall. Went in to have a tire repaired and was told I'd be called in an hour. Forty minutes later, I return and my car was just finished. A mere $25, no hassle. I inquired about my back tires which are fairly new yet the Honda dealership I bought my car from insists I immediately replace. Was told I have plenty of traction left. Bought new windshield wipers and within five minutes, they are installed and I'm on my way. Fair, fast and honest service here. I'd return and recommend this place for basic auto repairs. read more

These guys are rude and incompetent. I dropped off my car, as instructed, around 11am. I needed an inspection and an alignment. At 330pm they call and say I need to come get my car because they can't figure out out to start it and put it in gear. Its an automatic so I'm not sure what was confusing. "D" is for drive. Anyway, I go pick up my car and it starts up with no issue. Then they told me I needed to buy new tires before they could do anything. Eventhough, the tires are brand new but I bought elsewhere because Mavis is a rip off for tires. I didn't argue because if they can't figure how to drive an automatic I don't want them touching my car. I went down the road to a local small business and got it taken care of. Do not go to any Mavis!! They don't hire real mechanics!!! They are scam artists like Jiffy Lube that want to overcharge for tires and/or shotty service. Worst customer service i have ever received. Consider yourselves warned. read more

I would prefer to give this establishment no stars. I brought my car here for an oil change, called ahead to ask the price they advised it will be $40. I dropped off my car, asked the Employee Anthony to make sure my fluids were checked and filled and to fill my tires with air since they were low due to the cold. I left Mavis and went to the mall while I waited for it to be done. They called me once it was done and advised my breaks were really bad that I had none left and my belt is horrible. My breaks and belt were perfectly fine when I entered the shop. I advised I didn't want the work done and went to pick up my car, when I got there they charged my $76 for the oil change even though they told me over the phone it was $40. I was disgusted at this point so I paid and left promising myself never to go back here. The next day I started to have problems with my car after this, I had someone check the fluids and turns out I have completely no antifreeze or break fluid. I had my oil change last Saturday 2/20/2021, I asked specifically to check my fluids. They obviously was trying to make money out of me and drained my fluids when I denied them to do the work for me. I could of lost all my breaks and could of seriously been hurt if I didn't catch this. During this horrible time with COVID in the world its sad to see people are still scheming. I DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE USE THIS MAVIS OR HAVE ANTHONY HELP YOU! read more

Not sure how your called Mavis Discount Tire but I can't get air put into my tires. Wow. Plus the guy on the register had a serious attitude. read more

I always go to this location compared to others because if your gonna wait you can walk over to the mall or get something to eat at Panera while your waiting. I wish when I made my reservation if would have notified me that the location didn't do NYS inspections on a Sunday perhaps that's just a labor shortage problem. Either way I had to get brakes and it was all done within hour-or so. read more

This is the second time I went to this shop only out of convenience. First time was for a inspection and they called me not even 10 minutes later saying I failed due to my emergency brake not working..when I get in the car I pulled me emergency brake n put it in drive n gave it gas n the car did not budge....they tried telling me my motor mounts were bad and I needed new ball joints ....I'm a mechanic for the last 10 years on n off. N I know there was nothing wrong with the car that it should fail. But pure laziness and not enough money they didn't want to be bothered. Then I went back today for a wheel alignment and same thing 10 min later I was called and said the bolts are rusty and they cant loosen them.... so i came back and offered to loosen them myself and they said no. When I got back to my car I checked it over to see what the issue is .and they stripped my tie rod bolts by not using the correct size and then tried to argue with me saying it was like that.....worst place ever I'm gunna find a local shop with the machines needed to deal with the jobs I can't do... I'm calling a lawyer on Monday to see if I have a case with them for causing damage to the car because now it's gunna cost me hundreds for a simple job....and the front desk employee is a smug pompous person who walked away when I brought up the damage DO NOT GOT TO THIS SHOP IN HICKSVILLE ON BROADWAY ...STAY AWAY read more

Jason, the manager, is the best. No matter what I've done to my car (and I've done a lot - blown tires, ran over a truck muffler, side mirrors and passenger windows were vandalized, and the usual wear and tear), he's always fixed it up as good as new. I know very little about cars, so by the time I notice that something is wrong with my car, there's something REALLY wrong with it. No matter what the problem has been, they're able to fix is promptly and cheaply, but more importantly really well. I've never had another problem once they fixed it. Their price quotes are always really low. I've checked it out by either googling what the price should be or asking one of my friends who is a car aficionado, and their quote is always on the low end OR actually beats what I expected to pay. The service is incredible. Friendly, knowledgeable, and fast. If they tell you that your car will be done in 3 hours, it's done in 3 hours. If they're running a deal or a sale, they'll always give you the best price without asking. I went in for an oil change and if you had a coupon, they'll give you 10% off. I didn't have the coupon, but they gave me the 10% off without asking me about it. I trust STS with my car. And for an LA girl, that's like trusting someone to take care of your baby. read more

Please avoid this location and Mavis Tires! I bought 4 tires less than 24 hours ago and this morning one of them is already losing air! My mechanic said that there is a hole in the tire (not from a nail or anything) and that I was clearly given a defective tire. However, the manager at Mavis was quite rude and said that this must be a joke that I would be saying they did a bad job. The fact they do not stand behind their products is just mind boggling. read more

Mavis proved to be uncaring and very in helpful. Had a flat driving through Long Island to Newport. Arrived at first Mavis on Jericho Turnpike at 4 pm at 40 minute wait they told me too busy to help me. Sent me to Mavis Hicksville. Arrived at 5 ( they are open till 6 ) was told he sent everyone home early. He sent me to Mavis at Broadway Mall at 5:30. They said to busy to help me. Wasted two hours and was treated Like a jerk. Keep your tires. Would not take one for free from Mavis Discount Tires read more

These guys love what they do. Great communication and good service. Thanks Nasir and Anthony.

They did amazing job at fixing all the issues with my car. They got my support

If you have time to kill-go right ahead, once again I got disappointed with this service station. When it was STS, it might have gotten a better review. When one manager promises to make you the first appointment of the day-even writes up a ticket for you. You show up early, thinking you're going to get in first-wrong. Back of line. Keep your word. read more

I stopped by Mavis at the Broadway Mall to have all 4 tires replaced on my car. From the very first interaction I had with Nasir I sensed it was not going to be pleasant. I do not know if he a manager or just a mechanic. The only way I know his name is because it was on his shirt ! I will admit that when I first stepped into the store I did not have my mask on...it was in my jacket pocket. The way he spoke to me regarding my mask was rude and accusatory. He only got worst. I walked in knowing the exact size I needed and how much money I wanted to spend but his abruptness and loudness caused me to confuse part of the tire size number. When I stated it is either this number or that number his response was, "well, which one is it ?" And then he acted frustrated and said, "I'll just go outside and check for myself". I told him I have the VIN and he could find the correct info from that - he just continued acting rude and condescending. Now, we have the correct info and I tell him what I am looking for. He immediately started telling me about tires that were out of my price range. I told him I saw on the Mavis website there are tires for $89 and that's what I need. He said those are cheap tires and I should just keep driving on my current tires. I said, "didn't you see my tires are pretty chewed up and obviously I need new tires"? He said, "yeah, I saw your tires." He kept pushing more expensive tires. I asked him about different tire choices and he kept saying, "no, the size on the car is the only size . You can't change that". as well keep my old tires. He again tried to sell me tires for $169. I sensed he was not happy that I was able to "hold my own" while talking business and that I didn't give in to his attempted up-sale. I found Nasir to be rude, condescending and downright disrespectful. I do not want to assume it was because I was a woman but that was the feeling I got from him. I have used Mavis Tires on Old Country Rd in Westbury in the past ... shame in me for not going there in the first place. I will never give Mavis Tire in Hicksville my business. Remember the name Nasir at Mavis Hicksville. I gave Mavis Hicksville 1 star because I couldn't give them ZERO stars. read more
