Please consider Merlin as your neighborhood expert in both vehicle maintenance and repair. THE DRIVE FOR 200,000 Maintenance Program is Merlin’s easy and affordable program to help your vehicle go much farther beyond the manufacturer’s warranty.

Merlin’s exclusive 200,000 Mile Tire Warranty along with the optional four year road hazard plan can mean that with proper maintenance, customers will never have to buy tires again. THE DRIVE FOR 200,000 ALLIANCE, Merlin’s rewards program, provides “real cash” which is accrued on every service that can be redeemed for tire and vehicle DRIVE FOR 200,000 maintenance packages. A customized eGarage is provided for each customer that tracks their vehicle service history, provides coupons, service reminders, and monthly emails featuring driving news and tips. Merlin Shops offer shuttle service to your home or work and provide free repair estimates. The service menu contains all the maintenance and repair your vehicle needs to go 200,000 miles and beyond, and every service includes a complimentary 20 Point Vehicle Inspection.

When I was looking to have the work done, I went onto their website. You can make appointments, coupons, you can print out coupons, you don't have to go hunting for them. It was nice. I would use them again. It seemed like it took a little longer than it should have.
Description of Work: Oil change.

I go to them. I don't usually go to anyone else. It's a chain. They don't do any work until they tell me how much it is going to cost. They haven't called yet to tell me the cost. I have even told them to do the diagnostics as well. I like them because I feel like I can trust them. Everything is in the books so they know exactly when I had the last transmission flush or when I had the last tune-up done. They have everything on their computer. I like going there because everything is in one place. You can trust them to do what's needed on your car and give you an honest feedback.
Description of Work: I try to use Merlin's Muffler & Brake exclusively. Right now my car is over there. They have done tune-ups, oil changes, and tire rotations for me in the past.
