Coming back to sing their praises once again. This is just such an honest shop. We went on vacation and got an oil change and were told that we needed to replace some things that wouldβve cost upwards of $1600, I knew we had to come have Franks take a look at it. While the situation isnβt totally fixable.(Not their fault, I have a Hyundai Tucson that burns oil) They said we did not need to replace anything but will likely need more frequent oil changes as this is a common issue with our type of car. I just love, knowing that we can count on Franks for an honest and thorough opinion.

Did a thorough and respectful inspection on my trucks engine. On the phone communication is a bit rocky, but they do a good job explaining in person. Quote ran quite high. Though, its hard to find a good shop run by honest people, so I would definitely take my truck back here. Recommendπ

Took my old car to Franks for years. Always decent work. Now I got a hybrid car. I checked beforehand with Frank if they would be able to fix an electrical issue. I had read that usually Ford themselves have to be the one to fix these issues since the hybrids are computer/sensor heavy. After talking to his mechanic, Frank said no problem. Well the mechanic had no idea what he was doing, absolutely in over his head. His diagnosis was nowhere near what the actual problem turned out to be. The next day I'm told it has to go to the dealer. Fine, but they still charged me! Don't take a hybrid here unless your sure it's a mechanical issue.

I am not a car person so I get really nervous every time I need to get my car serviced. I am literally blessed to have a reliable mechanic that I trust. I don't really trust the big chain auto repair shops and random mechanics. We moved to Columbus this year and I did a LOT of research to choose where to take our cars. I have been to Frank's Marathon 3 times now (to replace the battery, to change the oil and to change the brake light bulbs). I can highly recommend them, they are very professional and very attentive

After a recent visit to this gas station, I found it quite impressive. The staff was amicable, and I appreciated the great selection of drinks at the convenience store. The fuel prices were also reasonable, and they fueled my car for me. Where else can you get service like that anymore? The overall cleanliness and maintenance of the place were commendable. I plan to stop by this gas station again in the future. Thank you.
