Walked in there two days in a row and the employees are arguing and not even coming to the desk to help anyone including myself. My car has been there since this am and no one answers the phone and so I got a ride down there to check on my car and it's still not done. I only wanted tires and a wheel balance smh. read more

TO THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS ABOUT APPOINTMENTS: These guys are thorough. They give each customer the attention their car and them need. Please understand they work their tails off, it is a small shop, and they are very well liked in the area so they have a lot of people to get to. So please be patient, having an open ticket if you can take a lyft to the shoppes in Riverhead is your best bet. Otherwise bring a book. Thank you guys so much! I really appreciate the timeliness on a balls hot 100+ degree day. You guys busted your butts and went above and beyond my inspection[checking my oil & helping me with my bottom plastic guard on the car- noticing it as i drove up and actually asking me about the work i was getting done.] I feel horrible I cant remember the mechanic and front desk guy's name but they were respectful, courteous, and were able to take me on a few hours before call and got me done 2 hours before expected time. Thank you guys! P.S. To the lady who got mad about the reservation, just ask for an open time ticket if you have the day free and can hang around the area. That way you can go to tanger outlets, tj maxx, target, whatever while you wait. read more

Every time there's an issue with mavis. Some locations say sure come on down with your sprinter van we work on them. Then when you get there they say we don't work on them. Secondly, I just called what I thought was the store turns out it's a call center. Asked how long is the wait? 30 minutes they said. I drove 10 miles to get there and was told 2 plus hours or you can drop it off. Like WTF I just called! He said you spoke to the call center. Where's the disconnect? Never again with Mavis. read more

Mavis of Shirley NY.. My wife had her truck in for oil change and inspection. They called to let us know that her truck was ready. 5 minutes later they callex to tell us that one of the mechanics that had been working on someone's brakes had backed out of the bay and he had no brakes because he did not reset the calipers. He crashed into my wife's truck and another vehicle. We were told Mavis would take care of everything. Her car went to a shop and Mavis insurance adjuster went to look at it. The collision shop has been trying to get a hold of them to get the permission to repair the truck and they have not responded. This is crazy because it was complete negligence on the mechanics part and this guy could have killed someone walking through the parking lot. read more

I would give a negative amount of stars if I could. I went there a year ago because I had a flat tire at work. I put my spare one on and drove my car to Mavis I left it in there care asked them to put a new matching tire on. When I picked up my car they assured me that they put my spare back and everything was good. Six months later in my car started to shake and my tires were making a whomping noise when I crawled or went to drove after stopping. I took my car to 2 to 3 different mechanics over another 5 months, plus a transmission guy, ultimately it took the transmission guy to notice that the front tire that Mavis discount put on for me was a completely different size and brand causing performance issues to my vehicle. I complained to Mavis as soon as I realized that they had made such a huge mistake they reimbursed me my full amount for that tire after huge fight with the main guy Joe at the front desk and then a guy named Mike (who never once provided me his last name even when asked) from the 914 number provided here on Yelp that I reached out to you because of the disgusting treatment I received at the shop and my vehicle now being damaged as a result of it. Mike played games when he answered the phone he would have someone else answer the Amity # he called me off of & the. he would say hello five times before even answering me back saying hello knowing that I just spoke into the call center and they transferred me to him letting him know it was me because he didn't want to deal with me told me I was abusing him for following up on the email he told me to send Friday and didn't respond to my call Monday then by Wednesday he hung up on me for asking why he wasn't doing his job because I have a bad transfer case endangering myself and my kid now as a result of their unprofessionalism and lack of knowledge about tires they told me putting a different tire on a jeep is totally OK; when my mechanic said it's an all wheel drive vehicle and you should never ever do that. They also then wanted me to go to some shady shop here in Riverhead as opposed to my certified mechanic so that their mechanic can tell me there's nothing wrong with my vehicle when there is in fact a Bad transfer case now it's going to cost me over $5000. I submitted my invoice from my mechanic to headquarters and headquarters told me that Mike is the highest up person I can deal with and that they could no longer help me and I needed to go to court for this. Needless to say I will be doing so as far as Mike goes I hope you get the worst karma that there is for putting my 2 1/2 year old son and myself in jeopardy you guys are disgusting shop and you deserve to be shut down I pray nobody locally ever ends up going to them and I will do my very best in anyway I can to make sure that anybody I know NEVER gives these horrid people their hard earned $ or trust. Other than that can't wait to go to court! Also if you look them up they have an EEOE lawsuit as to how these men are sexist and they also have another lawsuit where mavis has caused damage to a vehicle that caused an accident with the limo so again I am posting this in hopes that it will ensure somebody safety by not ever using them for anything!!! -to your response what a joke and what a way to make yourself a look good, I'll believe it when I see it. Until then NOBODY should go to this mavis ever worst kind of people. read more

I called Saturday to make a 9 am appointment for Monday. Called on Sunday and asked if I could come in at 10 am instead and they said no problem. Well 3 hrs later (it's now 1pm) and they still hadn't taken it in! So I left. Was Also told on Saturday that the alignment was part of the quote.. well it wasn't come Monday. Stay away from here. There's SO many other tire places that I'm SURE have Much better management then this place! read more

We needed four new tires after one of the tires went flat yesterday. We made an appointment with another tire center for the next day and when we got there, they did not have the tires in stock. So we went to Mavis without an appointment and Ross and his team had us rolling out with a new set of tires within two hours. Courteous service and quality work equals a satisfied customer. Would definitely recommend Mavis in Riverhead, NY. read more

My comments are not a reflection on the staff , they were professional and hard workers but the corporate policy's that are used by the stores for appointments I made a 930 appointment, and my car was not looked at until around 1230 after I complained and finished after 2 pm for just front brakes What's the sense of having appointments when they are meaningless? If I had known this, I would have went somewhere else. During the wait, I noticed it was the number one complaint from customers and some walked out This is an unacceptable customer practice and I feel it's used to just entice business with no regard for people time Today cost me time and money and you a customer read more

Every time I go to this mavis there is a problem. Long waits, incorrectly done work, rude staff. After years of these issues , bandaided by a nice district manager who offered free oil changes--- I am done. The total lack of care for customers time and money is too much!!!! read more

I have been to the Shirley location and they always took care of me whenever I went there. Everybody was so friendly. However, my experience with the riverhead location was not quite as phenomenal. From the time I entered, with an appointment, the man at the desk was cursing with frustration at his computer. I, too, become frustrated with technology so it was fairly easy to forgive until I mentioned my check engine light pops on and off occasionally. But I definitely needed an oil change so I told him to go ahead and do that. Even though the lot was fairly empty, he treated me like even my oil change was an inconvenience and the fact that it was a Saturday meant I could not even get my car diagnosed. I had an appointment. There was no way my oil change should have been an inconvenience. Even though I saw at least five workers besides him on, it took an hour for them to finish my car and a half an hour after my appointment time to address my car. Don't offer appointments if you can't honor them or they're an inconvenience. Never again at this location. I'm bringing my car to Shirley for a check engine diagnosis to hopefully restore my faith in this company. Update; the Shirley location opened my hood and showed me LOOSE SCREWS just laying on my engine cover instead of being secured into place. I hadn't even told them about my riverhead experience and they showed me as soon as they opened the hood! Unbelievable! read more

Got my tire fixed in a reasonable amount of time. Good customer service. This is not a fast food joint, you have to wait. There's a TV in the wait room. read more

These guys were awesome! I had just came from another shop that quoted me 984.00 for brake pads, rotors and brake flush. I was quoted 564.00 by Mavis, but during their check they advised me I didn't need pads or rotors, just a brake flush. These guys are super honest and do a great job!! Coming back for sure! read more

This place is HORRIBLE! Was good when it was STS and even for a while after when one of the managers stayed on. Now it is awful. Dropped one car off with a coupon for a free oil change and the mechanics refused to do it for free so they never took the car in. Tried today with a different car and no coupon. Brought it in at 10am for an oil change and at 5:30 it still isn't done. They suck. Don't come here. read more

Horrible place, you can beehive all the comments about phony work times. . Brought car in at noon for 4 new tires, was told 2 hrs. . Returned 2-1/2 hrs later, car still in lot. . Was told I would be next, then another customer's car brought in. . Guy said 'sorry', but that didn't pay for my lost half- work day! Left and won't be returning. Low prices don't mean shit if they don't do the work! read more

I can't speak for the quality of the work because I left before I the job was started. I called earlier today to see if they had any openings for an oil change if I came now. I was told yes sure no problem. So I go and I wait patiently, 15 mins, 20 mins, and hour, and hour and a half. So i asked when my car would be serviced and I was told not for another half an hour. The whole reason I called ahead was so that I could plan my only day off this week. Had I known it would be such a production I would have went elsewhere. I have now wasted a good part of my afternoon and still do not have an oil change. I get being short staffed, but please work it out because I am not the only customer to complain today. The young man in the waiting room sitting next to me was also stuck for an hour and a half waiting with no word. This is not okay. I will not be returning and I am pretty sure I won't be the only one taking my business elsewhere. read more

They completely forgot my appt. "nobody checked the key drop" was the answer I received. The first person I spoke with couldnt have cared less. After spending the afternoon trying to find a different retailer with tires in stock within a 50 miles radius, I relented and I brought the car in the next day. I called to ensure it would be completed upon the business opening and I was assured it would be. And it was, the only thing they got right. When I picked up the vehicle, the price was $100 more than anticipated. When I questioned it, the "manager" said you ordered an alignment, I stated when I called the day I made the appt, I had the alignment removed from the work order. They promptly removed the charge for that. I came right from work and was in my uniform. Both days. And I was still given an attitude. Had I not been in uniform, what sort of response would I have been given? Poor customer service. Filthy building. I will not be returning to this location and most likely not this company for any future vehicle work. read more

They did everything they promised to do. I've learned not to hold service calls to a time standard. Crap happens. I left the car and they called me when it was done. I was satisfied. I understand the frustration of waiting but I have waited the same time if not more to see a doctor. Unfortunately, time management is an issue everywhere you go. read more

Someone hit my car and I was stuck with a rental. After having the rental for a couple of days, it had a flat tire and I was beyond stressed since the tire needed to be replaced. I brought it to Mavis today and they gave me honest tips on ways to avoid paying for a new tire since the rental place and insurance wouldn't cover it. Since all Hertz locations were closed today and tomorrow, Mavis put the spare tire on for me free of charge. I am beyond grateful- my week has been really awful but their kindness made me feel a lot better. Really wish I had the names of the 3 men that helped me today since they were all so wonderful! read more

I had an appointment for 11:30am and after signing in and waiting 2 hours I noticed my car hadn't moved. I inquired what was the delay and was told they might get to it by 2:30. What the heck is an appointment for if no one honors. it. I had other things to do on my day off so I left after being told it would be done by 4 for sure. read more

Forgot to put the lug nuts back on my aunt's car. She pulled out and the tire fell off ripping the fender and bumper off. To which their reply was oh wow and he has been with us for 30 years. read more

So now I have the proper size spare to take me down to Hilton Head . Now I feel very secure knowing I can take my road trip with A proper size spare THANK YOU MAVIS OF RIVERHEAD!! read more

First let me start by saying never never never get tires at this store!!! Ordered tires on a monday, got a confirmation on tuesday for a sunday 9:00 am install . When my wife got there she was the 3rd person in line and as told she'd have to wait 1 and a 1/2 hours till they took here even though she had a 9:00am appt.I guess they know how to make an appt. but they don't know how to act on that appt. The person at the counter then said they didn't have the tires that I ordered and would be in the next couple of days.If for some mysterious reason the tires were not delivered why wasn't I called so I wouldn't waste my time driving to Riverhead!! That is not why I made an appt almost a week in advance!!! The store is mismanaged and anybody that buys tires there BEWARE!!! read more

Never fails and service here continues to disappoint. I was the first person in the door and still had to wait 2hrs for a simple oil change. Plenty of excuses by the service attendant including how he had two guys show up late for work. Never provided an update on the status- recommend you find any other place to go but here. read more

We had a very good experience dealing with the people at Mavis. We have an older model Nissan, that requires a size of tire that doesn't seem to be Common anymore. They had to search for the size and brand of tire we needed. When they came in, they installed them very quickly. We were very happy with the service they provided. On the way back to Mavis , to have the lug nuts retightened after 25 miles, our brake light came on, they added a can of brake fluid at no charge. All in all a good experience. read more

I was told okay to wait for two new tires (30 minutes a tire).... Three hours later and they never gave me a time estimate. It's a guessing game with the customer service. I suppose I inconvenienced them. They know I had my to small children with me too. read more

Bought four brand new perelli ties and within 100 miles two of the tire stems failed resulting in one of the tires needing total replacement. Asked the manager for a partial rebate on the original tires and he said he didn't have money to throw around. Asked the manager how this could have happened and he said he didn't have time to look over every bodies shoulder. Welcome to customer service?! read more
