“Got a screw in my tire while on vacation. They were busy but still got me in and all fixed up! Friendly and quick staff, clean and comfortable waiting room, really thankful for their help!”
“Wife had a screw stuck in her tire. Knowing they were closing in 30 minutes, Jason said bring it down and we'll take care of it. With about 15 minutes to spare, Adam removed the screw and fixed the tire. Thank you both for your professionalism when taking care of your customers. Kost Tire is a great asset to Wilkes-Barre and surrounding areas. Happy Holidays!”
“The staff at Pittston twp. Was great. They saved me money with the discounts. On my 2013 kia soul. With the breaks and rotors. Had it ready to go in no time. They were very helpful and friendly.”
“The guys at Mavis on Linden were so sweet I brought my car in for low tire pressure they figured out it was a leak in my tire valve right away and took care of me within the first 20 minutes ! Excellent service would 100% recommend coming here for your car needs”
“Was traveling from Florida to New York and breaks sounded bad, pulled over and the car clunked and wouldn’t drive. Had car towed to Mavis and they diagnosed the issue quickly. The break caliper bolt fell out. Jade replaced the bolt and retapped the bracket and had us back on the road within 30 minutes. Thank you so much. Highly recommend 10/10”
“Came in because first car had mystery issues, John ran tests and found out the source of the problem. Gave me sound advice so got a replacement vehicle, dealership messed up and sold me a vehicle under the guise that it was operational without covering/solving issues with the master cylinder. John and everybody at the shop were extremely helpful and transparent and helped me wage a case against the dealership with the information and pictures they provided of the issues. I HIGHLY recommend this shop. I’ve never had a better experience with an auto shop.”
“The staff here is awesome. They are super helpful and are timely with their work. Never disappointed! Ravi & Eddie are great people to work with! Happy returning customer!”
“The Manager, I cannot remember his name right now, was absolutely amazing. I came in with a flat tire on Saturday and they were so busy and so short staffed that he could not help me out that day. He genuinely felt terrible that he could not help out. He was kind enough to let me leave my car in the parking lot until my husband could get there the next day. Upon arriving the next day, we were approached by him and told that he absolutely could take us in and patch out tire for us, which is what we wanted because our tires are under warranty. From start to finish, it was about1 hour and we were on our way home. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. We also had a lot of laughs with the staff. It was just an overall great experience.”
“I went to Mavis recently to figure out what’s going on with my truck. Angel was so professional and attentive. The mechanics fixed it in no time. Very great customer service at this place! 10/10 would come again!”
“The best place with the best people! I had a flat tire last week and stopped by to see if they could help. They carefully inspected my car for about 50 minutes, explained the issue clearly, and told me it was fixed — no need to replace the tire. They even refused to take payment since it wasn’t actually a tire problem. I truly appreciate their honesty and professionalism! They are reliable, trustworthy, and kind. I’ll definitely come back here for any future car issues.”

“I had an incredible experience with customer service at Mavis today. We discovered a nail in our tire and noticed the low pressure light was on. Upon arriving at Mavis, we were welcomed by a cheerful young lady who informed us that the repair would take no longer than 30 minutes. Once the service was completed and we went to settle the bill, they surprisingly didn’t charge us, which is honestly quite rare and greatly appreciated. We are now back on the road, safe and sound. Thank you, Mavis!”
“I brought my daughter yesterday to get new tires on her car before her long drive to college today, and they were super accommodating and got her tires done that same morning. Very friendly, prices were very reasonable, no BS or upselling. We appreciate the great service, thank you!”
“Best price around for tires. No sales pressure, no hidden fees, and they won’t try to find things wrong with your car that you don’t need. Excellent customer service and staff. Thank you to Steve, Scott, Larry, and the whole team
Gary”
“Mr.Laszlo and Maddie were not only professional and friendly, but they were extremely helpful with my pricing given the time of year with the holidays coming up. If you’re looking for spot on work, with a side of compassion this is the place to go!”
“Called Frank last week about getting tires order and installed today . I was met today with a smile from the young lady behind the counter today . I have been getting tires from Kost for over 20 years . I Have checked tire rack for pricing and found they were very comparable. I have visited may Kost tire and this visit was the same . Clean waiting room and great staff . If you are from the Scranton area , give Frank a call , tell him I sent ya!”
“Honest and fast paced.
My tire had a 1 inch slice in it and unfortunately wouldn’t hold air for more than a few hours, I drove with a flat to the nearest gas station and of course it ruined my tire. They tried to patch it but to safety issues with me driving on the flat they were unable to. They showed and explained to me what happened and I got practically a brand new tire for $40. Win win.”
“I recently brought my vehicle in for an oil change. The gentleman at the counter was incredibly helpful and professional. He informed me that the oil change would take approximately 45 minutes. However, Mavis’s team completed my vehicle in about half an hour, which was a pleasant surprise. Additionally, he kindly informed me about the discount coupon for oil change. Overall, I found the service to be highly helpful, professional, and efficient. I highly recommend this place for any oil changes or other services they offer, including tires and other automotive needs.

“I've always been wary of "big box" garages but I found Mavis on Market Street to have really great affordable prices. The technicians there are always knowledgeable, skilled and courteous and I got right in for my diagnosis. I would recommend this shop to anyone who needs their vehicle fixed in a jiffy at a very fair price.”
“My tire was low and Jack Williams told me I’d have to replace it but the guys at Kost were able to plug it and help me save money. Thank you to Frank, Jim and Evan. Your service is amazing and I appreciate it very much.”
“Love love love, the guys at browns they are polite courteous and knowledgeable individuals... Matt, Anthony, David, had my tires done and back on my car in 35 minutes from start to finish and they are definitely priced lower than most tire shops... WILL definitely go back anytime.”
“Went there this morning with my mother's car.the tire air valve was cracked and leaking air.they changed it out in 20 minutes and the price was cheap great services and prices”
“A shout out to Steven & his crew on Saturday. 03/08/25. My appointment was at 11:00 a.m. & I was done by 11:45am. This is the only location I visit as it's close to my house + I've been going there for several years now because they have an excellent service staff who are very knowledgeable. They go above & beyond to make sure everything is to your satisfaction before you leave. I really appreciate that as some places will get you in & out as fast as they can, Kost tire will never do that to you, they're not satisfied until you are satisfied! Thank you Stephen & the crew from Saturday morning, it was a pleasure to do business with you! Best local company to do business with, they've been here 83 years so they know what they're doing.”
“Excellent Place? I know I can't be the only one when I say that it's daunting when you think about the prices of tires. I got four Goodyear tires used of course in excellent condition for an amazing price needless to say I am very pleased and also the owners are very friendly quick and efficient. No longer do I have to stress out about shelling out hundreds of dollars for tires since I started going to Vincent Tire!!”
“My Mother Came To Get An Alignment Done and That's Exactly what happened. Neil Was Very Nice and Explained everything thoroughly and The Time To Get the Alignment Done was really quick. The Store Was Nice and Clean plus the customer service was great. Overall Recommended to Everyone who's around!”
“Woody was very helpful and accommodating. My wife's car needed an inspection and I did not have an appointment. Woody and his mechanics were already busy with other customers and wasn't sure if he could get to it. Woody said he would call if anything came available. About an hour later Woody called and said he would be able to fit in the inspection. During the inspection the mechanics found a bad ball joint and had to be replaced. Woody gave me a quote that was more than reasonable. Woody went above and beyond to make his customers feel like family.
Thank you Woody and his team of mechanics,Kost Tire & Auto Service in Dumore, for thier hard work and dedication to the customers.

“I had blown a tire on my car on the road and I needed a replacement to make it home. I called a few places and they all said that they could only get one for the next day. I finally called Smertz and they said it would take them 1 1/2 hrs to get it and that they could get me in in about 3 hours to replace the tire. It was done and the even charged me a fair price for the tire and the balancing. I was able to get home later that day and make my appointment thanks to the people at Smertz.”
“First time going here. Brought a car that I just bought 3 weeks prior for inspection. The car was brought in the bay withing 20 minutes of arriving and withing 45 minutes of that it was finished. The Gentlemen there will not hassle you over things your car does not need. I tried to see if he would bite on replacing some parts that I knew I just replaced but he didn't bite. He just gave me my stickers and went on to the next vehicle. If only every shop didnt take advantage of you needing stickers to drive your car legally. 10/10. Great service and Trustworthy.”
“I can’t say enough good things about this place!
Tire emergency 45 minutes before closing? No problem for these guys. They welcomed me in without hesitation after two other shops turned me away.
The manager was awesome…full of knowledge, great conversation, and good vibes. Ten minutes later my tire was plugged, my stress was gone, and my bill was $0. That kind of service is rare these days and they’ve definitely earned my business and recommendation for life.”
“Reliable Auto Repair truly lives up to their name. Amazing service, transparent pricing, and genuinely honest staff. I drove an hour just to have my car inspected, and it was absolutely worth it. I finally found a shop I can trust—highly recommended! 10 of 10!”
“So I bought a new (to me) car last week. I expected problems with it but when the cold hit, it came sooner than I thought. My power steering return line was rusted out and spit everywhere. It was an emergency and I needed to get to school for a final.
Ryan is a great dude. Very knowledgeable and understanding about life happening on its own terms, not necessarily mine. He told me to bring the car in. He diagnosed the problem while I was at work, and he had it done in time for me to get to school later that day.
Also before I left, he did a full check up on my car and walked me around the car and showed me where my new purchase is going to need some work in the near future.
In short, my experience was as easy as possible. It was all around a hometown mechanic feel. Just some guys doing their job and trying to do the next right thing for the little guy that works everyday. Reasonable prices. Fast service. And every reason I need to come back.”
