By luck we pulled in here, to inspect our car and get off the road. They were closed but by chance a gentleman was doing inventory or some extra work. He came out to see if we needed any help. He got on the cold snow covered ground and went to work locating the hole. He quickly determined he could patch the tire for us and did so. He could have stayed inside we would have never known he was there. We knew the facility was closed, we just pulled in to get off the road. This good Samaritan came to our rescue and boy was it cold outside. Thanks for your help!!! We would have been stranded forever because we didn't have a spare tire. You guys are the best.

Chili Automotive took a look at the recommendation and could specifically say why they thought it wasn't needed at this time. They noticed a tire that they put on was different the next time I came in and asked me if I changed it and I told them no asked me if someone else had driven my car and I said no until I realize I was at a hotel and then valet kept the car in a parking garage for three days. He actually called two places and gave me the number of a third for the type of tire that was sold in Ohio. As a single mom, I didn't have a ride home. The owner drove me home so again they go above and beyond. Elisa

Unfortunately, I cannot recommend Independence Car Care. Took my sons truck there for repair and…read more$1,200 later the problem was not fixed. Was told they fixed what my son said was wrong and admitted they did not read the codes showing on the dash OR test drive the vehicle when done. Sent me to a specialist for a 2nd opinion who said a mechanic should have known the repair was not going to fix the issue based on the codes. Shared specialist findings with Jeff, the owner of Independence, who immediately went on the defensive. Disagreed with specialist's findings, denied knowledge of conversations we had with his manager about issues with the truck and scheduling the repair, made excuses for why they did not properly diagnose the main issue and share this info with us. Acted like my son and I were the mechanics, and they just blindly followed the single note on the drop off envelope and ignored all conversations. Additional note... when the Manager called with the price quote they found "additional" work on a ball joint they recommended. We said to told them not to repair the ball joint and they responded that they'll just go ahead with repairing the transmission. The day we picked up the truck the transmission was still not working, engine codes still on. Owner refuses to refund or discount any of the repairs they did that per the specialist should not have been done.

The prices were very reasonable for the distance and if you pay cash you'll save a bit more money. Cody Ault and his partner took the time, effort, and diligence to make sure my lowered WRX was secured on the flatbed without scraping my bumper and front lip. I've been burned in the past by other towing companies cutting corners with my 4-wheeled babies, so I'm very picky about whom I go to for it. I have never seen such care to detail, and will definitely use them again for future service. I really appreciate it!

Jeez my experience here was biased by my desperation to have a fix, but they handled my problems…read morelickety-split with no nonsense. I don't live in Rochester, but when I rolled into town wth my 15-year-old Subaru, the exhaust system (resonator and exhaust pipe) just fell apart. I could tell it was busted because suddenly my meager 2.6 liter engine sounded like it was revving for a Nascar race. I only had a day in Rochester to burn, so I set an appointment for 8am at the nearest Mavis which seemed to be the safest bet for getting a quick turnaround. When I arrived on the dot at 8am, they informed me they didn't have an exhaust mechanic and redirected me to Cole Muffler (also a Mavis branch) across town. When I got to Cole/Mavis, I was greeted by Tyler (? I think) and he let me know that they would inspect the car and let me know ASAP what needs to be done. After 20 minutes or so he escorted me to the car and pointed to the exact parts that were failing (rusted) and why they should be replaced. He gave me the option of letting the less rusted pipe stay. No upsell. I opted for the full replacement because it was time for this car (16 years old). He told me it would be 1.5-2 hours so I took a long walk. When I got back the car was in tip-top shape and the bill was less than I feared. They charged for parts plus $160 for labor. This included a new resonator and new exhaust pipe. Didn't need a new muffler. Total was about $650 including labor. I really appreciate this branch of Mavis/Cole for attending to the needs of my car in such a professional manner, and on the spot when I needed to have the car for other business in Rochester. This branch brings a positive vote of confidence for Mavis, even if it isn't on their main sign.

It was the only issue as on both may 18th and June 5th I got a code read and that was the only code that came up. I got it "fixed" at Cole muffler June 6th and the car was ready for me June 8th. I leave and immediately when I turn the AC on the car starts shaking. I went to go get it fixed and they quote me 500 dollars and they said that both me and two code readers just didn't notice this issue that they say has been here all along. They say a catalytic converter "technically" wouldn't cause an issue with the radiator fan, turns out although rare it can! Regional manager said a radiator fan wouldn't show up as a code and then once I said hey I googled it he pivots and said oh well it would if only blank happened. I told him hey I can show the code readings I did and he said he didn't want them. I had a lady on the customer service line say it's sort of expected that when u get work done that something might happen? This (in my opinion) made me wonder if that's what they do to get more work. If you're hoping the Mavis Discount Tire relations makes the work safe I would heavily warn you to not risk it. I habe a warranty for the catalytic converter fix that covered bad workmanship and steve told me he didn't know what he wanted me to do. Okay so I got it checked at another place and the issue could not have been here all along, so they were lying! Cole Muffler told me the issue was the radiator fan and in the two days that I left the car there, just to be told by Steve the issue was not his problem the radiator module got affected as well! A radiator fan is not something that you can just drive for months or even weeks and have your car be okay!
