Then I went in to get my tires rotated. The serviceman told me that my lug nuts had sleeves on them and that when they start slipping you won't be able to get the lug nuts off easy. He suggested I have new ones installed without sleeves on them. I said ok and they put new ones on for $117.00. They were fine at first, then after 2 years they started to rust. When the points of the lug nuts rust they round off when you try to remove them. Chrome lug nuts aren't supposed to rust. So, asked Troy to replace them or refund my purchase price. He said no but would give me an oil change that cost the same as the lugs nuts. I can get a oil change at the Ford dealer for $60. So, I ended up buying new lug nuts and installing myself. While changing them I found out that one lug nut was a different size than all the rest. So, If I would have got a flat while traveling I would have not known that and would have had no lug wrench to change that one lug nut. I would have been stuck on the side of the road. No Thanks Fausack, you have lost a good customer... Customer beware.....

I've had to use the services of Goodyear Auto Service in Foley, AL twice so far over the years. I…read morehad one of my tires somehow run over something in a gravel parking lot that made it immediately deflate. So after getting my spare tire on and arriving to Goodyear they found sidewall damage that couldn't be repaired and quickly got me a new tire installed and it came with a warranty. A few years later that same tire started to very slowly deflate on me over the course of several weeks. The deflation finally started getting faster so I decided to take it in after I couldn't find anything wrong with the tire and then people doing my oil change couldn't find anything either. So the Goodyear folks finally found a screw stuck into the sidewall of the tire facing towards the inside of the vehicle. Well apparently the tire warranty only lasted a short time as it had already expired which is a bit different than other tire warranties I've had. They also didn't have my tire in stock so they replaced it with what they did have in stock. What I found unusual is they didn't just replace my tire with the full size spare that is the same type of tire and then just put in their different type of tire in my spare tire space. Overall they got everything done faster than most places these days.

I was in a real bad situation with my Gap insurance not getting on the stick to finish paying for the totaled Kia I was driving prior. I saw the ad on my iPhone for Coastal Auto Group. even though I had no faith left in Auto sales and dealerships I decided to fill out the quick application online which was fast. within an hour or so I was contacted then ask some additional information and in around 2-3 hours I was approved. Justin was the salesman and did a phenomenal job of working with me. very nice polite and informative! this was the least amount of time I have spent doing car financing which is in its self amazing to me. I sent all my documents required to Justin through email and text. that dude was awesome and even answered every little text like , you're welcome and no worries. my experience with Coastal Auto Group was the best car buying experience I have ever had in my 65 years of living. what they advertise is true unlike most all other sales and dealers. got my Kia Soul and love it!!! low miles and a nice car that fits all my needs for my work. I'll leave you all with this one last important comment. Go see these guys if you are in need of a vehicle and in a tight spot. they actually do work with you instead of wasting your time like others. I was offered an incentive if I refer someone to them. no sales or dealership has ever told me that! drive on with Coastal Auto Group! do not waste any time with the other bill BS-ers! thank you Justin CAG

I would recommend this shop to anyone, they have very courteous and knowledgeable employees! I went in to have my brakes and routers changed and the price was great. They ran into a snag with my rims (every lug nut was a lock nut thanks to the previous owner of the truck) but luckily they had a universal tool and were able to remedy the problem without an issue. There were several other customers that came to pick up there vehicles as I was waiting and they all seemed very satisfied with their work as well. It did take a little while longer than I had hoped but that's because they were busy and I had the issue with the lock nuts. I myself am very happy with the work that they did and will most definitely be using them in the future! I will most likely start taking my wife's car there as well, thanks for your hard work, keep it up! read more
