The plastic zip tie that was removed from my cylinder. Melted due to the heat of the engine.

I took my vehicle into Firestone for a simple spark plug replacement on July 3rd. What should have been a routine service turned into a months-long nightmare that ended with my car leaving on a tow truck instead of being safely driven home. After the work was completed, my vehicle began misfiring badly. Firestone refused to take responsibility and insisted the issue had nothing to do with their repair. I had to take my car to another repair shop, where they immediately discovered the real cause: Firestone had left a plastic zip tie inside my cylinder, directly causing the misfire and damage. This was not a coincidence--it was a direct result of their work. Despite clear proof, Firestone still refused to take accountability. Communication was slow, unhelpful, and dismissive. I was left without proper transportation, stuck with a broken vehicle, and forced to fight for months just to be heard. Only after I escalated the issue and contacted the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) of California did Firestone finally cooperate. Four months later--in November--I finally received a refund. No apology. No accountability until a government agency got involved. WARNING TO OTHERS: If Firestone makes a mistake, do not expect them to immediately own it. Document everything. Get a second opinion. And if you're being ignored or dismissed, contact the California Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR) right away. This could have been handled quickly and professionally. Instead, it became one of the most stressful and financially draining experiences I've ever had with an auto shop. I will never return, and I strongly caution others before trusting them with their vehicle.

They checked my tire pressure and filled my tires for free! So nice! :) I asked to pay and they said no.

I took the car to Audi in T.O. and they discovered the nail and recommended I bring the car to Tire Man. This was May 22nd, 2026. I arrived at Tire Man and explained the situation to the counter person wearing a white shirt who looked like a manager, and he said they would take care of it. I see people commenting on Yelp how great this business is and how they repair/patch tires often without charge. Well, they charged me $30. I was not offered or provided with a receipt. The very next day, May 23, 2026, I was out driving and the tire warning light came on. I took it to the nearest tire shop, which was in Camarillo. They examined the tire and sprayed it with some solution and showed me that the tire/patch job that Tire Man had done was leaking air. Furthermore, they explained that 1) they would never charge for a patch and 2) a patched tire can't be re-patched for the same puncture. This was after 2pm on Saturday and Tire Man was closed. It's Saturday before a long weekend and lots of tire places are closed, closing or don't have the tire(s) I needed in stock. And I absolutely needed the car for a weekend trip to Paso Robles. So, the tire shop in Camarillo filled the tire up and called shops around T.O. and located a shop that had a replacement tire that would work. I drove to America's Tire in Thousand Oaks. They had a random one-off tire they could sell me, but explained that could and probably would set off the Audi Quattro traction control system. They strongly advised I buy two matching tires (albeit it not the original spec tires on the car, which neither they nor anyplace keeps in stock). So, I ended up buying two new tires from them for $1170. Tire Man incompetently performed a faulty repair/patch that failed (and evidently didn't check the quality of their own repair or they would have detected that it was still leaking air). I have had tires on various cars patched over the years, and this is the first time a patch fails. I returned to Tire Man to discuss with owner/manager Carey, who asked me to see the patched tire (as if I'd be driving around with a dirty, leaking unmounted tire). He basically told me to pound sand.

After that, they told me that two of the tires they installed were the wrong size and asked me to come back within three days to have them replaced. At that point, I was already frustrated with the wasted time and the need to return. I came back on Tuesday as instructed. The employee who helped me seemed unsure and told me it would take about an hour to confirm if they could fix the issue. After waiting 2 hours, I finally got my vehicle back. As soon as I got on the road, the car started shaking badly, so I had to return again. They rebalanced the wheels, which took another hour. By then, I had already spent around 6-8 hours dealing with this. A week later, I discovered that all four tires were losing air. On top of that, the TPMS system was not programmed correctly, and my dashboard showed incorrect tire positions. I tried going to other Pep Boys locations, but every time I was told the minimum wait time was 2 hours. Given how much time I had already lost, I couldn't afford to keep missing work. I called the company directly, explained the situation, and they scheduled me at a location near my home. I showed up at 8 AM for my appointment, only to be told the technician wouldn't be available for another 2 hours. At that point, I gave up and went to another tire shop, where they helped me immediately. Overall, I will go anywhere else for tire service but Pep Boys. I have never experienced such poor service from a chain. The staff were unprofessional, and their ability to fix their own mistakes was extremely disappointing.

I ended up walking into a Firestone less than a block away to get the alignment done instead. The whole process was quick and easy, and the staff were friendly and polite. I've been to several Firestone locations, and this one stands out as the only one I'd come back to and trust for alignments. My car was ready in less than an hour (Walk-in). Highly recommended.

Work Order: 221838 Initial Diagnostic: A/C blowing hot air due to a leak Recommended Resolution: Remove and replace A/C compressor, then recharge Outcome: Not resolved Despite four separate visits, the issue remains exactly the same as the A/C still blows hot air. After so many attempts, I asked if I could receive a refund, and I was given two options: 1) Bring the car back again 2) Submit a claim I chose to submit a claim because, after four unsuccessful attempts, I no longer felt confident returning to the same shop. The claim has been submitted, and I am now waiting for a call from the inspector. I also had to contact Firestone Customer Service myself to obtain the claim number, as it was not provided to me by the shop. I understand that mechanical issues can be complex, but customer service should never be compromised. This experience has left me frustrated, inconvenienced, and without a functioning A/C system despite the time and money invested.
