    Avoid at all costs charges significant labor above actually performed work…read more Pricing and terrible on parts is terrible as well.

    God i wish I checked the Yelp reviews. I made the mistake of only looking at Google. 4.9 rating…read morewith 1200 reviews. But only 3.3 rating with 37 reviews on Yelp. Fishy as hell. Bots or bought. They bait and switched me. They nickle and dimed. They are so so shady. They didn't want to give me the quoted price I was told. Twice I called to confirm price. Its even listed on the website. One guy even tried to tell me I was at the wrong place when i told him the quoted price. That i called the wrong number when i showed him my call record. LOL. I called it right in front of him as he watched his co worker confirm the location. They Upped the price on me when I dropped the car off, twice. Then they upped the price again when I picked up the car. Despite the twice confirmed on the fone quoted price. Despite the plainly stated website price. I was left scratching my head, and was really glad I ran through the numbers. They tried to say it was the taxes and fees. Nope, taxes and fees dont amount to an extra 22%. They tried to say it was cuz my car needed extra material. Nope, i drive a compact. They tried to say i got the proper "discount". Nope, "discount" + taxes + fees absolutely did not add up. The kicker? After i thought that was all cleared up, I asked about the veteran discount. They tried to claim ignorance. When the manager verified Mavis has vet discount. He gave it to me but not before again raising the price higher than the quoted price. How does that make sense?. Yup. The one I twice confirmed on the fone. The one plainly stated on the website. The one he swore up and down was wrong and I was at the wrong shop. Really good thing I was checking the invoices. According to him you can't combine discount with the internet promo price. Fine. But it was shady AF to 1. Hide that from me and then 2. Switch it to the worse discount. Shady. This is absolutely in my top 3 worst transactions in my life. The kicker? It took 2 hours for an oil change and tire rotation. Two freaking hours. I don't even trust they actually did rotation. Would you trust them after how shady they were? Obviously he was trying to finesse his revenue VS shop hours. I would give them negative stars if I could. 1 star is being generous. I've dealt with shady businesses and shady characters but never have i had to deal with one tried to pull so many greasy tricks every step of the way. Over such a small amount. I try to understand why they would be so dirty. Did they think I was stupid? Naive? Was it a race thing? My guess is they're worried about their margins over labor hours. And that they do this to a lot of people. Hoping they don't notice or don't have the energy/time to deal with it over $15. I guess overall it was a good thing. I had been planning to get several other services done costing a few hundred dollars. I wont be scammed for a larger amount nor will i be giving them more business. I wont ever be going back to a Mavis. Ive learned this behavior isnt isolated to a single location. I won't be getting oil changes, alignments, tires, repairs, or anything else from this trash brand. If Mavis has a deal, I'll always remember it's a trick. When people talk about the shady mechanic trope, it's Mavis. I'll have to be sure to monitor my credit card that they actually fixed it.

    This local service station has a high level of customer service and fair prices. I just moved to…read morethe area and have started using them but so far they strike me as a good business that only fixes what you need and can help you manage the health of your vehicle. While waiting for my car I saw a number of regular customers come in with various issues and they really strike me as a business that is part of the community that values strong customer relationships. I love supporting quality local businesses and will certainly be going back.

    Abusive treatment, refusal of service, and possible discrimination…read more On August 26, 2026, I brought my elderly father -- who is hard of hearing and speaks with a Latino accent -- to this Sunoco for a second-opinion inspection on his 2000 Mercedes. The dealership had repaired an air intake hose but flagged the body as heavily rusted and a possible safety concern. We wanted an independent opinion on whether the car was still safe to drive. My family has patronized this location for years. My father and I are both visibly Latino. I waited for the operator to finish paperwork and wave me forward before approaching the counter. I began politely explaining the situation. Within moments, and without provocation, he cut in with, "What's the bottom line?" He demanded specific part names. When I explained I'm not a mechanic and don't know all the terminology, he snapped, "So you're here and you don't even know what you want." I calmly asked why he was speaking to me that way. He stood up and said, "That's how I talk, that's how I grew up." I told him I was being polite and did not understand why he was yelling. He replied, "I'm not putting up with this, get out." I asked, sincerely, if it was my accent. He repeated, "Get out." I do not have a pronounced accent and had been speaking clearly. The entire exchange took under a minute. As it ended, a tall blonde woman entered and initiated a friendly conversation with my father about his Georgetown University cap. In the same moments the operator was ordering us out, he called her forward -- "You're ready, come up" -- and began serving her. Within one minute, two visibly Latino customers were refused service and ordered out, while the white customer who arrived immediately behind them was welcomed and served. A family member who grew up locally has separately described similar treatment at this location, suggesting the conduct may not be isolated. I RECOMMEND FINDING ANOTHER PLACE FOR SERVICE.
