They saved me $2,100.
First, let me say thank you to Tommy and Ethan for your expertise. About a month ago my car... started shaking while braking at high speeds. A near by dealership worked on my brakes last year (2022) so I took my Tucson back to the dealership service department thinking it was still under warranty…unfortunately the warranty had just expired. So I decided to have the dealership replace my front rotors, pads and other needed maintenance, since I was there. When I left the dealership, the car was shaking 10x worse than when I arrived that morning and that is not an over dramatize description. “Ten times worse.” I immediately returned my SUV to the dealer's service department but was then told I needed a new steering rack, $2,100. I just paid $1,270 earlier that same day. So I decided that evening to get a second opinion. The following morning, at 6:56am, I arrived at Mike Tate’s 99 and Tommy test drove my SUV. He was totally shocked the dealership service team allowed me to leave with that amount of front wheel shaking. Ethan, Mike Tate's 99 technician, then discovered my “new” rotors were badly warped. I immediately drove my SUV back to the dealership with a proper diagnosis from Mike Tate’s 99 and they replaced the rotors. My car brakes as it should, now. WOW! Thank you Tommy and Ethan for saving me $2,100.read more

Huge thanks to Eric. Unfortunately forgot the other man’s name who helped me out, but great service regardless. Had... another shop do loose work, came into Mike’s expecting to have an alternator replaced. They let me know everything was alright, just a small terminal issue, and most importantly, they only charged me a diagnostic fee instead of the extra labor. Great shop, I bring all my cars here time to time & never leave disappointed in the quality of work and customer service.read more

Please don't go here! This place almost took me for $2000 and I'm glad I got a second opinion! I had an issue with a... drive belt and what I thought was the compressor and the car would not start. I had it towed here and after checking they informed me that the compressor had locked up which broke the belt. And needed to do flush as well. All in it was $1800. Definitely a much higher price than other place I called and got a quote from for the same service. Eventually I had the car sent to Christian brothers who replaced the belt and tensioner and said the compressor was running fine and that this shop had tried to add completely unnecessary repairs and pretty much tried to screw me over. Do not listen to what these guys say and avoid at all costsread more

Everything was great for oil changes and inspections. They checked my brakes and said I needed new brake pads, rotors... and other parts. Gave estimate of $1300. Took it to dealership and they disagreed with the volume of repair needed. My rotors were fine and only recommended new brake pads. BEAWARE OF THIS PLACE AND AVOID DOONG MAJOR REPAIRS.
Went for state inspection. Staff was friendly and did not have to wait in line. Was asked to wait for 1 hour but they finished the job faster.read more

Be very careful when you take your car to this place; what they tell you over the phone is totally different than what... you’ll hear when you actually take your car there…….. apparently it all depends on who you talk to or perhaps how busy they are.
I called yesterday and specifically asked for cost of B2 service on my vehicle. The gentlemen called me back 15 minutes later and told me $197….. and listed all the things they do (change synthetic oil, replace cabin filter, rotate tires, top off all fluids, etc.
Today, I took the morning off and went there to drop off my vehicle to get the work done. When I asked the person behind the counter what would be the estimated cost for the B2 service, I was shocked and surprised to hear:
$155 for oil +
$240 for cabin filter +
$110 for brake fluid
OVER $500
When I told him that somebody told me $197 over the phone yesterday, very conveniently he replied “I didn’t know who you talked to yesterday but I just looked it up and this is how much it would be”
You be the judge….read more

This review is only for the Mike Tate's on the Grand Pkwy and Hwy 90. We have had only horrible experiences with them.... Brought our car in because it was stalling on us. After paying $1300+ to get it "fixed," we had to come back less than a month later because it was doing the same thing. The two guys that are always sitting up front made rude comments about why it took us so long to take the car back. It just so happened that we had to drive our two kids out of state for college with our other car and we did not have the chance to bring the car back sooner. Anyways, this time they quoted us a price of $2200+ to get our car fixed for the same problem that they never fixed right to begin with!
We do not recommend this business and will never come back here. And give those two bozos up front some customer service lessons, will you?!read more

This used to be the place where I would happily take my car and know that it was going to be cared for. For years I... have trusted them with all our vehicles. This week they’ve had my car for three days, they replaced a part that we had been waiting for, no one Ever call me to tell me that part was ready but my car needed service so I went to drop it off so that they could perform the service and change the part. Today I came to pick it up and the only thing they did was change the part. They used to call me and tell me specifically every issue that my car had to make sure it was fixed. Not sure what changed but the last two times that I’ve been there it’s not the same. It’s very unfortunate I’m gonna have to find a new place to take my car.read more

This is the third time they charged me for tire rotation and but didn't do the job.
For the first two time I gave them... benefit of doubt and I understand this can happen ... but happening third time means its common...
They are nice guys, no doubt about it ... but not doing the job and charging does not help at all ...
And now I am not sure what else is not being done and I am charged ... 🙁

I went to this place because my A/C went out. They tried to charge me $1,600 to fix it and the only thing that was... wrong was the compressor. When i told them I wasn't going to let them do it, the guy smirk and said we will see you soon. So I took my car to another mechanic shop and got my A/C and Radiator fixed for $500..

If you like to get over-priced quotes and stealership pricing, come on in. First off, they are generally nice and have... been in the community for many years. I have taken my 2011 Altima for oil change service and have had no problems. After having my valve cover replaced and completed, that same day I left the shop the car started overheating and called them to let them know I need to return. Had the car towed back and next morning they called me to let me know that the radiator needed to be replaced and have new hoses installed. Price quoted: $1300. (are you fkg kidding me?) Went to another smaller shop in town and got the service completed for $544 with parts and labor. Mike Tate's said that they needed to have the front bumper removed and that's why it costs so much. Good luck and shop around.read more

Don’t recommend this mechanic shop at all. They quoted me a price and asked me to drop off the car. After an hour... they called me saying that they would have to increase the quote by 300% since they were wrong in estimating the initial quote. After making changes to the types of repairs, I called them again after 5 min to cancel the whole repair itself and they said they have already started the process and when I asked them how long will it take, they replied saying they would take at least 4 hours. Although I am not a mechanic, I know that an oil change would not take 4 hours to complete. Like I said, will never recommend this place to anyone.
With reference to your reply, you quoted me while I was at the shop and not over the phone. Please get your facts right before replying.
I repeat: You quoted me while I was at the shop, not over the phone.read more

They always do a good job here and in the past I’ve never had issues but NO ONE IS USING PPE. I understand you are... “clean” or taking precautions, but you don’t know which client will walk into your shop with a sick mom at home or auto immune issue. No masks, no gloves. Absolutely irresponsible whether you believe in the fact or not. Had to get my inspection done before work so no other option but to leave my car here. Had to wipe everything down knowing they didn’t take care in ensuring that their customers would be safe. If you’re getting your inspection done or getting tune ups, go to a dealership where you KNOW they’ll be wearing the proper protective equipment.read more

These guys, who work at Mike Tate's 99 Tire & Auto, 4940 US 90 ALT, are very professional, courteous, and honest! I am... out of town and had my daughter take in my GMC SUV. They not only fixed it but as also dropped it off. My daughter and grandchildren didn't have to leave the house to go pick it up! It's great to know you can trust your vehicle to your mechanic and not be taken in with their outrageous quotes to fix your car. Their prices are fair and honest! Will continue to take my business to them, always. Thank you, again!

We googled Tire shops near us & Mike Tate’s came up. It was great we were already basically in the parking lot. They put the spare tire on the rim for us very quickly & charged us 5.00. My husband had not gotten his pay chk yet & we basically had 3.00 on us. They said that’s fine.

Hello Mike, Based on your response there was multiple misdiagnosis. When taking it for a secondary review there was no... leak identified in the rear axle seal and also the transmission did not need to be repaired. When asking your staff why the transmission was stuttering it was told to me that there were plates fusing together that would have caused the issue. I went to a toyota specialist and they said this a common problem in toyotas where the filter is clogged and needed to be replaced. The first sign would be that the transmission fluid was a dark color as told by the other mechanic and wondered why that was not stated as part of your initial analysis, versus directly stating the transmission needed to be repaired. This is not a review to bash your repair shop, just to note this specific experience. If I would rate this solely on customer service then sure, 5 stars. Everyone is nice and I appreciate the call back in offering to help me reduce costs. With regards for your request for improvement of your processes, I would ask that future customers with toyotas having these transmissions issues be looked at for alternative repairs.read more

I went yesterday to have my truck looked at due to what I thought was going to be an expensive repair. I arrived and... was greeted with a freindly genuine welcome. This was my first visit here, and let me say I am very impressed with the level of kindness and professionalism shown to me by everyone there. The guys informed me that the noise was from my brake pads, and was nothing to worry about because the overall condition of the brakes was still very good. Just some material oxidation was the most likely cause. Honesty is so hard to come by these days, and these guys are exactly that. They could have easily taken money from me, and they did not. When it comes time to actually fix something, I will only go back to them. Thanks Austin and Jason.read more

Beyond impressed with this establishment. I had all of my brake pads changed out and everything was fine for about a... week then I started to notice some rattling. My busy schedule didn't allow me to make it back to that part of town for another 3-4 weeks. Without my receipt and it being weeks since my service I was dreading going in and just knew it was going to cost me $200-$300 because they were going to "find" something wrong outside of their previous repair. No receipt needed cause the worker behind the counter not only remembered me and the make and model of my vehicle but he remembered exactly what work was performed on my car. They ordered the part and I was back on the road in @45 minutes free of charge. Only gave them 5 stars because 6 wasn't an option. They will get 100% of my business from now on.read more
