Save yourself the frustration of dealing with Mr. Lube if there's a problem with servicing your vehicle and STAY AWAY from the brand as a whole!
I brought my van in to their 101 Edgeley Boulevard, Vaughan, Ontario location inside the Wal-Mart to swap my summer tires for winter tires. After about 45 minutes of my vehicle sitting in the bay, I'm suddenly told that the technicians broke 3 out of 4 of my locknuts, as well as the locknut key! That's right, they didn't just break 1, they continued breaking them until 3 were broken.
They took no responsibility for this at the time, but just blamed me for it. I had my car dealer put my summer tires on, which I know was done properly.
I wasn't offered any sort of discount or even an apology. The owner wasn't there at the time so I had to call him the next day to complain. He offered to reimburse me for a new locknut set if I brought him a receipt.
So I got the locknuts replaced by the dealer and brought the owner the receipt. He only partially reimbursed me the cost of the receipt. He refused to pay for installation, which he never specified when he asked me to bring him the receipt. He also proceeds to give me a condescending lecture about how this wasn't his fault and he's doing me favour by reimbursing me anything.
I've never felt so undervalued and disrespected as a customer anywhere I've serviced my vehicle before. The owner claims he told me that he would have put the locknuts back on for me, but why would I want his technicians touching my vehicle again after what they did?? Why should I have to be further inconvenienced anymore than I already have?
Terrible experience! Worst customer service ever! Overpriced tire changes! Changing your tires here costs almost twice as much as going to the dealer! Not worth it! Save your money and get it done right. Make an appointment with your dealer.
I've truly lost all confidence in Mr.Lube as a brand. Oh, and I tried calling head office and got absolutely nowhere with them. They don't seem to care about brand reputation or customer satisfaction. I was told there was nothing they could do about this and that everything at issue was at the sole discretion of the owner/operator in terms of resolving the matter.
