Honolulu, HI
I haven't been to a Lex Brodie's in a few years, and I think that's going to change. I know their prices are higher on tires, but I'll try to give them my business if it doesn't break the bank because of this experience. In January I put new tires on my car, at another tire shop. The day after I get a nail in one, I plug the nail and move on. A few months later I get a slow leak in the tire. My mechanic was unable to find it, so he suggested putting some sealant in it and it would do the trick. I was skeptical, but it did indeed work for a few months. The tires for my car are fairly expensive because of a weird rim size, so I was trying to do whatever I could to avoid shelling out another $300 per tire after I had just already done so. The leak comes back, and I can't figure it out. Another local auto shop has no clue. Lex Brodie's was my last resort. I called and got an appointment for the following morning. I dropped the tire off and it was done in about 2.5 hours. They were able to asses it figure out where the leak was coming from, and patch the tire from the inside. They were able to figure out something that no one else could. I was shocked and relieved. From the first phone call, to picking up the tire the staff was extremely friendly, and courteous. They work quick, and seem to be pretty honest. Junior and the crew are doing it right. It might cost a bit more, but I'll try and patronize LB when I can.
