5/14/2014: They changed the oil in my car and added too many quarts, thus leading to a leak in the engine 6/3/2014: Still leaking oil. My car has never, ever had an oil leak before I brought it here. I took the car in to their shop at their request after they read my review. After putting my car on the lift, they claim the leak is not their doing. Okay, in 6 years it's never had an oil leak, but immediately after I have you change the oil I have a leak. It must be magic. July 2014: (This update was posted to Yelp, which was taken down by Yelp admins stating my review contained no new firsthand experience. I posted this review update after David, the owner of Avondale Tire & Service) asked me to take down my previous review since they didn't damage my car.) So, I took the car in at David's request and they claimed the oil pan gasket is leaking, which, "Has nothing to do with the work performed." They said it would cost $343 to fix. I didn't trust them, so I took it to My Favorite Mechanic, who has done fantastic work for me in the past. I was told the front crankshaft seal was leaking on the car. I asked if overfilling the oil could cause this problem and was told it could definitely cause this, since it was an older car. Thank you so much Avondale Tire & Service for causing $1200 worth of damage to my car. I know you won't help. I know you're not going to fix this. You have claimed several times you "really looked at the car" and you guys didn't cause any problems. You did.
