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.

I called and made an appointment for the next morning, but drop my car off the night before because there is a key box. Apparently, my two front tires were pretty bad and there was no repairing them. I ended up ordering four new tires with free rotation and if I get a flat, I can bring it there for him to fix for the life of the tires. I feel like I got a good deal. It was pretty comparable to other places. I highly suggest making an appointment because he is a one-man show.

I had a horrible experience with this business. He ordered the wrong tires for my car and…read moreinstalled them. When I went to pick it up it was several hundred dollars more than he had quoted. I tried to work with him and asked if he could still order the correct tires. He told me the ones on the car could not be returned and they were an odd size he could not resale. I offered multiple times to pay the original quoted amount and he refused. He got very angry and said multiple times he would just write it off. I was very uncomfortable the way he was acting. I did offer as I left to still pay the quoted amount and he said it would do no good. The next morning he started texting my Husband that he could suddenly get the correct tires to swap. My Husband was not happy the way he had acted with me and I refused to take my car back to him or do business with him. We offered to have the tires replaced somewhere else and return his tires, but he continued to be difficult and not want to agree with that. He even filed a police report, in which we had done nothing wrong. Eventually he ended up taking a reduced price for the tires, but we still ended up paying $170 more than originally quoted for the tires we ordered. I just did not feel comfortable taking my car back and wanted him to quit texting and leave us alone. His prices may be cheaper, but I would not recommend doing business with him after the way he acted with me and if his ring camera works like he told me then it's all recorded.

DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR HERE!!! I had an extremely frustrating experience with this NTB location. I…read moreoriginally came in just to have four new tires installed. I did not plan on replacing my shocks and struts, but the manager strongly pushed me into doing it while my car was there. I trusted their recommendation, which turned out to be a mistake. My vehicle ended up being kept at the shop for three days because they stripped a bolt during the repair and had to order a replacement part. After multiple attempts to pick my car up, I show up to the store and wait in the lobby for 10 minutes before I walk out to the back and ask if someone can help me. Meanwhile, there's 4 guys sitting around doing nothing. The manger finally comes out and informs me my power steering was messed up, something that had never been an issue before bringing it in. The manager stated he did not have the tools to fix the power steering. Because my car was not safe to drive, I had to have it towed to another mechanic to figure out what was going on. I am now being told that my power steering system needs to be replaced, only 3 shocks were installed and the CV axle has been punctured! Which is a major and extremely expensive repair that started immediately after the work performed at NTB. All of these screw ups just for some tires! To make matters worse, when I tried to escalate the issue, the manager refused to provide me with the contact information for corporate. Being left without a vehicle for days, paying for a tow, and now facing a major repair after work performed at this shop is completely unacceptable. I hope someone from NTB corporate sees this review and reaches out, because this situation needs to be addressed and they need to pay for the damages they have caused.

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.

I worked with the ladies in the office several days. They ordered the tires for me and let me prepay for them so I could get the promotion. Great appointment set for 12.4.21 @ 10am. I arrive at 9:39am. I go in give my info and keys and proceed to walk the parking lot to get my workout out the way. An older guy came in after me. They got him right in without an appointment. Okay. Maybe the guys that do what I needed are working on the others cars in the bay. Lady arrives 20 minutes later and goes inside. It's now 10:30. They go and pull her in and I'm thinking wtf. I go ask when will I be started and He asks which car like he didn't just check me in. He goes and tell the guy to go ahead and pull me in and they take the other car out and pull me in. Im trying to be understanding and not let all these previous reviews scare me but wtf are y'all doing? Now I'm watching the guy search my car like the cops looking for my wheel lock instead of just asking me where it is. Im slightly worried at this point. The job was completed and I prepaid for my service so I was given my receipt and all set togo. Sabrina was nice and friendly and I appreciated her and her rapport.
