I stopped at Black's Tire & Auto after picking up multiple nails in my tires, expecting a…read morestraightforward repair. Instead they told me they could only patch one tire due to a strict policy, and then quoted over $2,000 for four new tires. It felt as though there was no flexibility or real effort to help, and the experience felt pushy and impersonal. It was unpleasant during an already less than ideal situation. The staff didn't offer any guidance or alternatives, and I left feeling like the only priority was making a sale. Definitely not the service I expected, and easily enough, I found another local mechanic for me who resolved the problem within 30 minutes for less than $100. Call around first before encountering a scenario like this.

Very nice people BUT... I called in advance (more than 2…read moreweeks) to verify that they could do an alignment on a Mercedes. Said they could. Verified again on day of appt that they'd have all they needed to do an alignment for my Mercedes E350 Blue Tec. Was driving out of state for the long weekend the next day. Again, said they could. After waiting for more than an hour while they worked on my car, a very nice man came out and told me I'd have to go to the dealership as they were unable to do the necessary work. No charge but a completely wasted day that could have been scheduled and spent at the dealership getting the work done. Not happy. Gave the 1 star for nice people.

Said I needed 2 new tires, he ordered them, made an appt to get them done next week, and he put in the book the price for the tires and the brake light to be paid on my next visit.

My husband and I keep calling and keep getting the runaround or no call back at all. Now I have a car I can't even drive because of their mistake. We live 2.5 hours away and I was told I can drive there every 3 days to get a temporary one. Who has time for that and with WHAT CAR, since I was also told if I get pulled over and get a ticket because of an expired plate I will be responsible since it's not their fault. I wish they would call me back as much as they called me when they were trying to sell me the car. They have done nothing to try to make this right. Do better!

It's a beautiful Spring day and Connie somehow managed to make it even more beautiful. When I…read moredropped my car off for an oil change she apologized that they were understaffed and running a bit behind. When I got the cal that it was done (sooner than I expected) I remembered that I was overdue for inspection and sheepishly asked if they can squeeze it in. She reminded that it's a busy day and they just didn't have time, I'd have to bring it in another day. Oh well, doesn't hurt to ask, right? Before I got a chance to pick up the car, I got a call from Connie, letting me know that the inspection was done! The best part is while Connie kept saying it's been a crazy day I would never have picked that up from her pleasant demeanor. Under promise, over deliver with a smile. Old fashioned values are never out of fashion.

1 Star -- Worst Experience Ever at Thomas Tire & Automotive (Southern Pines/Aberdeen)…read more This has been my third time coming back to this shop for the same problem, and I'm beyond done with their carelessness and lack of professionalism. First visit: I paid for an alignment and balance, but my truck still shook around 40 mph and the steering wheel was off-center. Second visit: I came back to have them redo it, but they said it was "too late in the day" and refused to do the alignment. Third visit (today): I brought it back again hoping they'd finally make it right. Instead, they took my truck for a drive without even asking my permission, and when they came back, there was a strong burnt brake smell. I quickly realized they had driven it with the parking brake still engaged. When I confronted the tech, he said my brakes were sticking -- which is completely false because the truck has brand new calipers and pads installed professionally. I told him the smell was clearly from the rear because the e-brake was left on, and he literally said, "It doesn't matter." That comment alone tells you everything about how little care they have for customers' vehicles. After all that, my alignment is still off, my truck still shakes at 40 mph, and my steering wheel is still crooked. I've now wasted three trips, time, and gas, and they still couldn't do the job right. I'll never bring my truck back here again, and I strongly recommend others avoid this location. Completely unprofessional, careless, and disrespectful.
