Customer Reviews

Had to get 4 tires mounted and balanced. Charged twice the amount anywhere else. Front end customer service employees were great. Extremely polite and helpful in fitting me in. However when I asked a question on why the price was so much the owner was down right rude and obnoxious. Making the comment "well I'm not Mavis." Obviously that's why Mavis is busy and can't fit me in and you have time. They know how to treat and appreciate their customers unlike yourself. Thanks for the help but there will not be any repeat service from me.

I just had my 2015 truck serviced by Jims Service. I personally went under my truck to see where the oil was leaking. I couldn't find where but noticed a lot of oil all over the place. I was expecting a large repair and it just ended up being a faulty oil filter. Definitely will use them again for all of my repairs. Thank you!

I highly recommend not going here. Used them since they were close to where I got a fast tire leak and needed a plug. Extremely rude and I can see them taking advantage of people who don’t know better. When putting the tire back on I watched them impact it on without starting the threads by hand first. Was doing another service 2 weeks later and it turns out the one tire that serviced they managed to cross thread on. Called and explained the situation and booked appointment to fix the studs. Service manager was out and employees did not fix it because I came in under the impression it would be a free repair. Never called me back like they said they where. Showed up a few days later and the manager firmly told me no and denies my claim, sounded like the employee who did was told to tell me he didn’t do it. Don’t let these scammers work on your vehicles.

This shop is great. Jim's has taken care of our family's vehicles for over 40 years. Always great service, honest work and you can trust the price is right. This is an easy recommendation.

I purchased two tires from Jim's on July 30th, 2021. I have a regular garage/mechanic that I have been doing business with since 2005, but I was on my way out of town, and had brought a friend to pick his car up at Jim's, when they pointed out that my inspection was expiring the next day, and that my front tires wouldn't pass inspection (I knew I needed new ones). As I said, I have my own garage/mechanic, but I had my car packed and ready to go out of town, so I was impressed that he was able to get me in right away. On December 8th, my right front tire went flat, I called AAA, they put the donut on the car for me, and I took the tire back to Jim's to have him check and see what could have possibly caused the tire to go flat. I figured it should have a warranty on it since it wasn't even six months old. They told me they would put air in it and check it out and give me a call, that was on Wednesday afternoon, no call on Thursday, finally, I called them on Friday, they said they put 40 PSI air in it and it was still holding the air, I asked if I could come in and they could put the tire back on the car, they said they were very busy, I asked about coming in the next day and they said they were closed on the weekends and to come in on Monday morning at 10:30. I went in at 10:30 Monday morning, and they said they had no idea why the tire went flat. They put the tire back on the car and handed me a bill for $52.30 for labor for putting the tire on the car, and sent me on my way.. I wouldn't think that there would be a charge to put the tire back on the car, especially since the tire was purchased from them, less than six months prior to it going flat. I went to the garage that I have been going to (and should have went to this time) and asked them if someone bought tires from them, and one went flat, would they charge to check the tire, and put it back on the car, and they said "absolutely NOT". I will NOT do business with Jim's garage again, nor will I recommend it to anyone. I was disappointed, because I had heard good things about them. Live and learn I guess. They will not get my business again.😡
