TL;DR: They seem like nice people who can damage your car or make it unsafe by improperly torquing…read morethe lug nuts, as they did twice with my car. Tires were also overinflated to random pressures. They're highly reviewed and seem like nice people, so maybe my experiences are the outlier. You decide. LONG VERSION: Some needed context: I check my lug nuts after every service because years ago another shop returned a car with lug nuts so loose that I had to pull over because the wheels were making noises as I drove home. Anyway, United Tire had a promo for a free alignment and could install tires the next day. I'd gotten an alignment and tire rotation there a few years ago but they didn't tighten the lug nuts properly - almost every one needed to be tightened. One wheel's lug nuts were so loose I could turn some by hand. I called and Lenny was apologetic and thanked me for letting him know and said something to the effect of "Ugh, I just talked to him about that!", so it seemed like an ongoing thing but I hoped they'd gotten it sorted out by now. Fast forward to now and after getting home I checked the lug nuts and they were WAY too tight this time. The spec is 94 ft-lbs, and my torque wrench doesn't measure breakaway torque, but with 14-in breaker bar it took almost all of my 185lb weight to loosen them. I jacked up each wheel and loosened and re-torqued them all, alternating between nuts and loosening in tiny increments to avoid snapping them. Unfortunately, one stud probably needs to be replaced because it has damaged threads that bind. The tires should be inflated to 32 PSI, but when I checked them cold the next morning they varied from 35-39 PSI. So another thing I needed to redo. United Tire offers lifetime tire rotation and while that sounds great, I don't know if I can take advantage of it. It doesn't save money to get free tire rotation but then need to replace damaged studs or lug nuts. If they could just tighten lug nuts properly, I'd probably keep going there. But they failed twice in different ways. And if they can't torque lug nuts, can I be sure the alignment was done right? After the free alignment I need to keep the steering wheel turned a little in order to go straight. It wasn't like that before. Every nut or bolt on a car can be over or under-torqued. This is the most basic stuff and unfortunately they've disqualified themselves for me. But maybe I'm the outlier.

Went to this location because I have been going here for about 6 years…read more This last trip was very disappointing. Made a 10:00 appointment on line for a oil change. Dropped my car off before they opened. Put on the paper that was filled out at the night drop off box to get the car back as soon as possible. Did not get a call that the car was done until 4:00 pm. There was a big grease stain on my custom floor matts that I then had to clean up (luckily I was able to get the stain out). There was one of the shops tablets/computers on the top of my car. Luckily it did not fall off of my car. Barely got a thank you when I returned it. Don't know if Bob is still the GM or not but the stores service sure has gone down hill like a car with no breaks.

Joe P. told him he could buy wipers anywhere and put them on in his parking lot and if they got rid of the sap he would pass the inspection.

It has to be requested face to face......or I'm genuinely insulted by the experience. This review is based on the latter unfortunately and I hope it serves as a warning to others. My truck is clean and cared for. When I notice anything mechanically wrong, I fix it before it gets worse. This is not a landscaping or construction vehicle. It carries light loads, maintenance intervals are performed by the book or better. The truck is rust free. I dropped my 5 year old truck off to have the rear differential rebuilt. It started making noise a week or so prior, just bearing noise, it drove fine. Within a day or 2 of picking the truck up there was a noise coming from the back of the truck over bumps, I've never heard this before and it continued to get worse. I returned to Mainline, explained what I was hearing and they took it out for a drive. They heard the noise but could not figure out what was making it and stated it had nothing to do them. I returned to them twice (they are over 20 minutes from me) They refused to look further. I realized (through my own research and work) the passenger rear spring was moving too easily when the truck was lifted 2 inches by a jack under the hitch. So I set up jack stands, lifted the rear of the truck fully exposing the springs. I know what it's supposed to look like after seeing the service manual. Both rear springs were installed upside down. The isolators were ruined for this reason as there was no way for them to seat properly. This is why the passenger spring was moving and hitting the truck frame, making the noise I was hearing. That spring is slightly shorter due to the gas tank being on the driver side to accommodate the weight difference. I was informed by Mainline that my mechanic of 30 years must have done this several months ago when he replaced the shocks, it just didn't make noise until I picked it up after Mainlines work. If it wasn't him, then it was the dealer 3 years prior...... I spent 2 weeks trying to figure this out, hours under the truck, then fixed it myself. I am not a mechanic. ZERO help from Mainline. If I had taken my truck to an automotive motive school for the work, I could understand and absorb some of the blame for the decision and the outcome. This is not a small mistake, someone knew it wasn't right and installed it anyway. For anyone reading this, it is the most important thing to consider. I believed you get what you pay for. I paid full price, and did not. So what did I get for 3k? That's the best part....I have no idea.
