Very good service here. Came in to get my tires put on, I was in and out within an hour. Didnt expect they would get my vehicle ready that fast. Will definitely be a return customer for anything tire related. Stop by if this shop is located near you, give them a try. I had such a good experience here and hope you have the same.
Great customer service and it was good to be back after so many years Im so happy my new tires are on thank you 3 gs
I had a very flat tire and because I bought the tires there, they squeezed me in! Great!
Ive worked with these guys for years and couldnt recommend them more. Theyre thorough, communicative and most importantly, honest.
Whatever you said to them worked great. They let us sleep in until 515 today. Happy New Year!530 am trash pickup on Christmas Day. Thats a new low. Merry Christmas.Terrible neighbors. Their trash pickup us woken us up at 5-6 am every Friday morning for two years, and they wont take steps to change it.
Great service, friendly people.
We have been going to 3Gs for years. They have serviced many of our cars. They are knowledgeable and very helpful!
These guys are the best. Ive been going to them for 30 plus years
I wouldnt recommend using these guys for your repairs. One of the most crooked repair shops in the state of Maine. Very unprofessional. Went in to have my pulleys on my car looked at and diagnosed, they didnt even have the appropriate tool to do the work. So they use a pry bar to try to get my belt off and warped my harmonic balancer pulley. So they did more damage then they did good. Then they charge me for the work that they couldnt even do. Then Bobby from 3gs tells me when we get the appropriate tool to do the job we will call you to finish the work we charged you for . This never happened. When i did call i got a hostile response from when of the technicians named Josh telling me your not welcome to bring your car back here ever again. May I also remind everyone going here that these techs are all family members covering each others back when they have issues. People going here for repairs BEWARE!! PROCEED WITH CAUTION!! (WILL LEWIS)
EXCELLENT. always great service and prices with 3Gs.
They listen, they’re reasonably priced— but most important- in my experience they are 100% honest 100% of the time!And for folks with children, they have a lovely playroom to help keep the little ones occupied while you wait.
Quick and easy. Had a flat was going to but a used tire but they were able to find and fix the issue with tire saving me $30. Much appreciated there help and service.
Great place great prices
Went there with a leak in my tire. I arrived 15 minutes before I scheduled my appointment. They had me out before my scheduled appointment. 15 minutes remounted tire with a broken bead. 15 bucks. Not bad. .
I will never take my vehicle anywhere else! This shop is the rare mix of fast, fair, honest, and trustworthy. They will always do everything they can to help you, are more than fair, and always act with your best interest in mind. Support this great local business with any and all of your car care needs!
These guys are absolutely the best. Timely service, more than fair pricing, honest, and trustworthy. I’ve never brought my car anywhere else, and I never will. Use these guys for any and all of your car care needs, they will definitely treat you right.
Fast-fast-fast! They take you on a first come-first served basis. In the door, out the door. Nice guys, explain whats wrong with your vehicle in plain language. Family friendly waiting area. Treat everyone respectfully, male, female, young, old. Dont make you feel like an idiot for not knowing what a crankcase ventilator is. Prices are very reasonable, mostly because they dont have a fancy-dance showroom or any suits around to pay for. Honest and hardworking folks.
They have a horrible policy of towing car out of their lot if you break down do not have your car towed to them. I had my disabled sisters car towed there because some slashed three of her tires and with in an hour they had car towed to impound lot in stead of giving it a little time for someone to get intouch with them and give them business.Even the tow company couldn’t believe it.If I owned a tire shop and a car came in on a tow with three flat tire truck I’d give it at least a day to try and realize the businessI would recommend starting clear of these business they obviously don’t care for people or customers.So angry 😡
Very helpful and honest. They had great prices on tires and balanced them for free. When I went to pick it up the man saw one of the tires and asked if he could get me another set because he noticed something wrong with one of the tires that I would not have even known about. Very honest. The tires he grabbed were even better ones too for the same price. Happy customer!
I have been having my cars serviced here exclusively since 1986, through their 4 moves and 2 of my own. This group throughout the years has treated me honestly and fairly, and never once have they talked down to me for being a woman. Their kindness and work ethic has always shown through and for that I am grateful. 3Gs -- you are the BEST!!
Josh and the crew at 3 Gs are ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! I would HIGHLY recommend them to anybody and have already done so with my friends and family. I can not say enough good things about them. They are simply honest, caring, great individuals. We have been having issues with a vehicle of ours and they have been up front about what work is worth doing ourselves, what work they should do, and what work is just not worth doing altogether. This garage goes above and beyond and we are lucky they are right in our back yard. Thanks guys!
Got winter tires for my Civic for $35 each. Considering all 4 tires cost less than one new winter tires retail, I was REALLY pleased on the price. Tread on each tire is at least 85% and my cars performance this winter is leaps and bounds better than it was last winter with all season tires. Service was quick and painless and the staff was friendly. Would (and have) recommend 3Gs to anyone who has wheels!
Im a 10 year veteran of the automotive industry. I work for a New Car dealership, but I trust 3Gs Tire more than the new car technicians. In addition, even with my employee discount 3Gs prices are still lower. If youve ever asked yourself, Are there any genuinely honest auto repair shops out there anymore? and the answer always seems to be a big NO. Even being in the auto business, I used to always be paranoid that I was being duped. I may know about cars but I dont know how to perform detailed repairs and wouldnt necessarily know many of the components. It was like I had found the light when I first worked with 3Gs. The bottom line is that they are the most upfront, they are genuinely honest, they are fast, they do it right the first time, and they are the best value for any repair shop bar none. Dont be turned off by the outward appearance and the neighborhood. These guys are nothing by high class all the way!!
They dont seem to have good access to many lines. Nice enough in person, but couldnt find my yokohamas, whereas Tire Warehouse found them in about 60 seconds. Only option offered here was that I buy the tires myself, and have them mount them at the shop, and that i had to schlep them from my house into their garage. No way they would take them drop shipped. Well guess what? the other shops will take tires drop ship, and also match prices.[FOLLOW UP] not a first time customer at all. Been here a few times--thought I would upgrade my business from small time wheelbarrow tire repairs to a full snow tire setup. Appreciate the note. But more important is that you guys learn the magical words im sure we can work something out -- rather than these customers who ask for their own brands sure can be a problem. or IDK, maybe selling used tires is the main business.
Bottom line: these guys are honest, affordable, and dependable. I dont know much about cars, so when I got a flat on my front left wheel, they easily could have charge me to replace the whole tire. Thats what I was expecting when I came in to their shop, so when they charged me $10 to seal up the tire instead, I was thrilled at my luck and their honesty. Ill be returning next time I need tires replaced or rotated!
These guys are the best been going to them since they were in Bayside always taken good care of me in whatever jalopy Im driving
Love these guys. No nonsense. Quick and reasonably priced.
Its a wonderful feeling to have an auto mechanic you can trust. These guys are reliable, knowledgeable, reasonably priced, informative and helpful. We recommend them highly!
Great place to take you car
Today was my first visit, and Im sold on 3 Gs. They worked hard to make sure that I paid as little as possible to replace my rear view mirror. They hustled to find a used part (which we really appreciated; our car has 130,000 miles on it and really doesnt need a brand new rear view mirror) and when they couldnt, they bolted the old one in place so I could use my car safely for 2 days while we waited for the new part to arrive. Their fix works so well I dont need to buy a new mirror right now and they didnt charge a penny. They have won our familys business by being honest and working to make sure we did not pay more than we needed to.
Takes advantage of the naive ...(me, in this case) I ended up with tires that were not safe, (It blew- out on the same day, while traveling highway home@75 mph)But, of course not before waiting for approx 2 hours longer than they said appt.would take because the truck with the used tire delivery was very late- and all the employees best- buddies were given the pick of them all.( 2 separate individuals ) that came in an hour and 1/2 after me!!(,go figure, @ then the truck suddenly is there) Who ever owns the place is a fool to let it be run into the ground.Clearly not a place for females
Went to get my car inspected - they stated that it needed at least $650 worth of work before it would pass. Went to another repair service and passed inspection for $18. Im fine with a thorough inspection, but Im fairly certain the things they stated were wrong are fine.Edit to add I drove the car 4 more years and had other shops check 3gs claims out. No one thought these repairs were necessary and car never developed issues they mentioned.Additional warning to folks: no one is wearing a mask in their shop and they have signs stating their opposition to such things.
Excellent service! 3G got me a smokin deal on a set of 4 tires for my truck, so good the deal was unbelievable to me but its done so I have to believe it now! Thanks 3G for hooking it up and being so helpful. Id recommend this place to any of my friends or family.
Absolutely great service. These guys drop what there doing and help you!!
Called for an inspection and was able to get in within 24 hours. Everyone was great to work with.
Super fast, super knowledgable. Caught and fixed other mechanics mistakes.
Friendly, honest, and very capable folks. They have helped my 2008 Forrester age gracefully. Its still going strong!
Very good reliable service Im very nice people
Knew they werent gonna pass me on my inspection the moment I pulled up and still wasted my time and charged me. Then had the nerve to try to get me to repair it at their shop. If youre not even courteous enough to tell me Im wasting time and money, why would I wanna do more business with you? Worst service Ive ever received when getting an inspection. Ill never come back.
Willing to get you moving on the road. Highly recommend this shop
Brought my Volvo wagon in to get it inspected. They were able to get it in quickly and I waited while they checked it out. They failed my car for front and rear pads and rotors... I just had $3,700 worth of work done by a master Volvo mechanic (takes 20 years to achieve) and I assure you, nothing is wrong with my breaks or I would have had them fixed with the work I had done. I brought it to Jiffy Lube the next week and passed no problem. 3Gs also failed to inform me that I needed to have a tint certificate for my window tint, which Jiffy Lube informed me off before they even looked at the car (at no cost). I cant vouch for the work they do, because I wouldnt trust these guys after that experience.
Wonderful service. Good advice. Prompt timing. Would recommend this shop to anyone!
This place right about needing to have my brake pads and rotors done for my inspection took it to a reputable car dealership and said that my brake pads and rotors were fine my swaybar link was fine got my inspection sticker filing a complaint with the state bureau inspection stickers
Great guy great prices great work
These guys are fantastic. Nice to know there is place you can go and get good work done by honest people
Poor quality work. Poor customer service. Money trap. Take your car literally ANYWHERE ELSE. Owner argued with me and interrupted me constantly. Bunch of apes.
Been going here for years, theyre pretty trustworthy & their repairs stay repaired.
Poor service, bad customer service, put wrong tire on rim. Took my lug nuts and claimed they never had them. Never offered to rectify the problem. Told me to have a nice day and hung up on me!
Great service and price
Helpful, kind, and fair priced. Very conveniently positioned the Falmouth I295 off/onramp.
Good service, usually pretty fast and good deal on used tires
You can be lucky to find a set of almost new tires for your vehicle, and save turn of money. They are who they say thy are.
READ THIS BEFORE YOU GOI bought a car from a used car dealer in Lebanon, Maine called AC Provos and took it to 3 GS Tire & Auto Repair in Portland, Maine to be looked at. This is a review of both businesses and my experience with each. BOTH are bad and are unacceptable.After having the car looked at by 3 GS, I was advised that the engine was leaking oil, the turbo was leaking oil, the transmission was leaking, there were some lights out. In addition 3 GS advised that I had a wheel bearing going, tires were cupped and worn. Now, mind you, I had already replaced the front headlights because the passenger high beam was out. The synchro/blocker ring going into third gear must have been worn because I had to double clutch it to get it to go into third without grinding. The front right fender had been crunched in and that damage was undisclosed. There was snow on the car when I bought it so I didnt see it but the documentation indicated there was no major damage. Not true.OK, so needless to say, based on my experience with AC Provos and the car I would strongly recommend you do not go to AC Provos to buy a car.That being said, I had higher hopes for 3 GS. In fact, I had written a previous review of 3 GS giving them a 5-STAR rating. WHAT A MISTAKE! While I was still at AC Provos, the owner called 3 GS and advised he was going to call the state. They argued on the phone and I was very uncomfortable. Well, a little while later AC Provos tells me that 3 GS advised I had called the state. Now, why in gods name would 3 GS tell AC Provos I called the state? That was a separate transaction and 3 GS had no right to tell AC Provos that I called the state. And when I called 3 GS the person who said he was the manager was very unprofessional. I wanted to let him know that he really shouldnt be passing on information from our transaction. All AC Provos needed was the repair order from 3 GS. The manager started arguing with me that I shouldnt have passed information I got from them to AC Provos.Seriously? What a mess. You both are terrible and I hope you go out of business. As for me, Im happy to take my business and my money somewhere else.Im still shaking my head in disgust. I cant believe the way the manager spoke to me. Terrible!Oh, one more thing... The manager hung up on me and when I called back he told me he had called the state police. Haha hahaha. I said, good and restated my address. I never cursed or threatened you. Youve got thin skin, buddy. You were wrong. You had no right telling AC Provos that I had called the state of Maine about what I believed to be a car that should not have passed inspection. You obviously couldnt stand behind your diagnosis of the car after AC Provos threatened to call the state on you. Perhaps 3 GS would rather I had purchased a car from them. Yeah, RIGHT!YOU ARE THE EXPERTS AND IF YOU ARE GOING TO TREAT ME SO POORLY WHY WOULD I TRUST YOU MORE THAN THE NEXT?I asked to speak to the owner and you the supposed manager, would not put me through. Very interesting.**UPDATE** I obtained a refund from AC Provos, bought a car from another dealership and bought TWO BRAND NEW GOODYEAR TIRES. From where? VIP NOT 3 GS.
Service is great. People are friendly here and prices are affordable
Best tip for service have an appointment and be there
Why wouldnt I love it. The boys have always taken great care of my Toyota Sienna.
Best shop Ive ever done business with
I had an airbag light on so I took my car to 3 Gs. They told me they cleaned the problem plug (under the passenger seat) and the light went out. If it came back on the next step would be to cut out the plug and hardwire the connection.But then when I looked under the seat with my dad, we discovered there was no plug! It had already been removed and hardwired by another garage. So 3 Gs flat out lied that they had cleaned the plug and told me if it came back (which it did) Id need to come back for work that had already been done by someone else.
Best used tires and friendly service around.
Saved me a ton of money! Honest answers and good prices
