    My family and I use to come here all the time since we moved here to get our cars repaired. Just…read morerecently, I took my car in January to repair the clutch actuator in my hybrid and they took 4 months to complete the repair after trial and error. They took on a bigger project than they were qualified for, damaging a part after another, eventually replacing the hybrid battery and transmission. They always had an excuse pushing the deadline on every single inbound call. After applying daily pressure on them on a continuous basis , I finally received my car in April, however, the shop still owes me $583 for one of the car rentals they told me to purchase. I kept calling to retrieve the money but they didn't keep their word and denied paying me back. I could have easily placed a lien on the business for $583 with all the proof to retrieve my money but you know my good heart didn't follow through. Instead, writing this review will sting bigger and is the least I can do for the people. Im an easy going guy but after going through this extensive car repair, we decided to pull away from doing any future business for the wrong doing and unprofessionalism of their actions. I believe it's only right for everyone to hear about this and avoid what I went through, therefore, save yourself a headache. The owner is not a man of his word. This will bake in slowly. P.S. I also have screenshots, messages, and documents in case they want to lie and deny the truth.

    Despite what the owner stated in the past, I've had my Ford worked on over there several…read moretimes.....all for the same problem.....the transmission! The 1st time I thought all went well, until when he had the car delivered, on the receipt was stamped 6 mos warranty! Well, after I authorized him to repair the transmission....he said that he would give me a 1 year warranty. When I asked him about the 6 mos warranty stamp, he said "no worries they made a mistake....I will honor 1 year." I paid him $3,200 for the job. WHO in their right mind would agree to only a 6 mos warranty after paying that much?! So, the car ran well for about 7 months, then transmission went out. I called him, and had the car towed back over there. He said that " you know it's out of warranty, but I will see what I can do". So now he forgets about what he initially told me! So, he kept my car for another 6 mos......dodging all of my calls, and making up B.S. excuses about why my car wasn't ready! When I got the car back he told me that he would not give me a new warranty! The car ran for another few months....then transmission went out again! Smh SAVE YOUR MONEY AND TIME! Oh, and he must know someone over here at YELP, because he had my 2 prior reviews taken down! Smh

    What a great experience!!!! ---…read more ** 5.0** I wish I could give more than 5 stars on this review. Wholesale Tire and Automotive is the only shop I trust with my cars. Kenni, the owner, is amazing and always makes sure you're fully informed. Her mechanic Michael is incredibly sharp -- he diagnosed and fixed an issue on my daughter's BMW that a "name brand" shop had written off as unrepairable. It runs perfectly now. Based on that, I brought my Suburban in before a 6,000-mile road trip for my daughter's college move-in. Josiah and Kenni walked me through everything it needed, and the truck runs just like new. Fair prices, honest work, great people. Do yourself a favor and give them your business -- I won't take my cars anywhere else.

    At the end of the day, I just wanted the issue fixed, which it was not…read more To be clear, I was notified after the fact that the shifter cable had already been replaced, unless I misunderstood the call. I was not warned about that being a possible issue; not true. Same with the chemical block test, it was just done and I was charged for it after it tested negative. Was told to come pick up the car because they couldn't figure out the issue. Personally, I wouldn't be complaining if the issue was fixed; it wasn't fixed. As mentioned earlier, I personally observed coolant dripping down onto a plate from under near the battery/oil filter area and took pictures of captured coolant. Chemical block test was still conducted despite evidence that the car has an observable leak a day after it was driven. This is the part where it felt like they thought I was making it up and still ran a chemical block test despite informing them that an active leak was observed. The most aggravating part is I was charged to fix an issue and it's not fixed and has been pushed onto me to figure out or prove. Any rectifying of the issue should have already been done without having to complain or leave a negative review. I will likely take to the dealership to diagnose and then fix myself since I do not really want to deal with a shop who clearly thinks this is a waste of time/time sink for their mechanic to figure out.

    Very disappointing experience at Mountain View Tire & Auto Service. I scheduled a 9:30 AM…read moresit-and-wait appointment online for routine preventative maintenance and an oil change. When I arrived, Stephanie at the front desk immediately told me that I would have to either leave my vehicle for the day or come back another day because there were only two technicians working and they had "pretty big jobs." At that point, I questioned why I was able to schedule a sit-and-wait appointment for 9:30 AM if the shop was not actually able to accommodate it. Her response and overall attitude were extremely rude and dismissive, as though my appointment was an inconvenience to her. She then told me that because my vehicle is a Wheels vehicle, it would take even longer because they needed to get approval. I explained that I have brought this same vehicle in for preventative maintenance before and there has never been an issue with an approval process. These are scheduled maintenance services, so I was confused about what exactly needed approval. When I asked her about it, she said everything had to go through an "AI system" and that this was simply "the process at this store." This made even less sense considering I had taken my vehicle in for the same type of preventative maintenance just four months ago and everything was completed without any issue or approval process. I then asked how long the service would take. She told me it would be until the end of the day, which she said meant 7 PM. I asked her, "How is it going to take until 7 PM if I have an appointment at 9:30 AM?" She looked at me, rolled her eyes, and simply said, "There's other appointments." This is exactly what I find so frustrating about this experience. Having an appointment at this location seems to be treated like an inconvenience to the store, when the entire purpose of an appointment is to schedule a service at a specific time and the customer is literally paying the store for that service. If the location is so understaffed or overbooked that they cannot honor scheduled appointments, why not call customers ahead of time and let them know? Instead, customers are left to drive to the store, rearrange their schedules, and waste their time only to be told that their appointment essentially means nothing. That is incredibly frustrating and, quite honestly, insulting. I completely understand that a shop can get busy and that unexpected delays happen. What I do not understand is accepting a 9:30 AM sit-and-wait appointment when you already know you cannot reasonably accommodate it, and then treating the customer poorly for asking questions about it. What made this experience even worse was Stephanie's attitude throughout the entire interaction. She was rude, dismissive, spoke to me in a very loud and condescending manner, and made me feel as though I was inconveniencing her by asking completely reasonable questions about an appointment I had scheduled. Because of this experience, I called the Norco location to see if they could accommodate me instead. The difference in customer service was honestly night and day. The staff there were much nicer, more helpful, and actually honored the appointment. I was able to bring my vehicle in for the same preventative maintenance and oil change and was in and out in about an hour and 20 minutes the same day. So clearly, it is possible to provide good customer service and properly manage scheduled appointments. At the Mountain View location, after I told Stephanie I was going somewhere else, she looked at me, rolled her eyes again, grabbed my keys, and continued to act completely dismissive. I asked for her name, and she smiled and said, "Stephanie." This entire interaction happened in front of other customers in the lobby, which made the situation even more uncomfortable. I have no problem with a shop being busy. What I do have a problem with is accepting appointments that you clearly cannot accommodate and then treating customers poorly when they question it. If you cannot honor the appointments you offer, then stop offering them or, at the very least, have the courtesy to call customers ahead of time. I would not recommend this location based on my experience. The customer service was extremely poor, the communication was unacceptable, and the way I was treated was completely unnecessary and unprofessional. After this experience, I will be taking my vehicle to the Norco location instead.
