took my car there on a Monday for an oil leak and they estimated me $300 to fix it. so i called…read morethem on Thursday to see if there were any updates, they said "whoops we forgot your about car! we will have it done by lunch!" they called me two hours later claiming i needed a whole new radiator and it'd be an extra $400. i told them to go ahead ‍ next day i get it out the shop and they say "it'll still be smoking for a little bit, burning the stuff off." a few weeks later, it's still smoking and it is still losing oil! so i take it back and they call me later to say "theres actually a crack in your motor block. we can sell you a new motor yada yada..." you didn't notice the crack in my motor $700 ago?? anyway, i am NOT going to let them replace my motor, nor will i let them do anything for me again. they got an extra $120 out of us for a cleaning fee that day i took it back.

Their Insurance company has until the 11th of October to refund my costs as the insurance appraiser ruled for me based on the aggregious threat to my life safety based on the negligent work performed here. As of this writing I know that what I first believed was negligence was actually malice . They did not perform work that they said that they would. The work they did do .. Place rotors on backwards etc. The misdiagnosis that I originally thought was to make money off of a higher priced service Manifold which I did not need and Water Pump that I did need actually need and ignoring things that could have killed me on the road I NOW know were done purposefully and that there are several others in Palestine whose vehicle has been damaged by Matterns Tire and Auto. They have until the 11th of October to pay the insurance claim for what I spent there. If they do not contact me by the 11th this yelp review will serve as my attempt to make sure that they don't do this to anyone else. If you have been damaged by Matterns Tire in Palestine Texas please write me at POB 126 Tennessee Colony Texas 75861

This is a local tire company in Palestine, Texas. We were on the last day of a 4 week road trip…read morewhen I began experiencing trouble. This was the 2nd stop to attend to tires in 20 miles. We were so lucky the trouble occured during work hours and in a town. Mattern's Tire Co was our second stop having replaced another tire just 20 miles up the road in Henderson. We thought it was the same trouble (failiure of the wall of tire due to poorly done alignment). So, we went to this store with the recommendation of some locals at a C-sore. Here they were ready to help us! They had the right sized tire in stock and proceeded to do the change. Whle changing it they discovered it was not the tire but the tire stem. They brought the problem tire out to us and explained what was going on. Not having a stem with sensor in stock they replaced the stem with the standard kind and put out tire back on. They did not charge us for this service! We did leave a nice tip for the store to share but the fellow taking it said, no thanks and that he would give it to the employee who actually did the work. I really appreciate a business that figures out what the problem and finds a solution rather than one that tries to sell you all the add ons. The store was very clean. It was big. And it was set up well for waiting. There was a pool table, a few tables (like patio tables) with chairs with a variety of magazines placed about. And there was a complete set of dominoes. The wait was not long. Everyone was very pleasant and friendly too.

What a relief it was to find a reliable import repair shop like Downing's. Our problem was diagnosed and an estimate was given before work began. We were kept informed of the progress and other problems that were discovered along the way. When we arrived to pick up our vehicle, all the parts that had been replaced were neatly stacked in the repair bay for us to inspect. Our truck has never run better. Locally owned and operated.
