Some tech tried to sell me calipers I didn't need, went and got a second opinion on it and i was right. I did need break pads and new rotors but id never in my life pay for something I don't need. Went and got breaks and rotors done for 120 someplace else, thought I'd try it but big corp is always trying to sell you sum bs you don't need read more

From the moment I walked in, the experience was downhill. The front desk clerk couldn't even be bothered to greet me, let alone confirm my appointment. Instead, she sat there silently clicking around while I stood wondering if she even knew why I was there. Since she offered no information, I started digging through my email to find my confirmation. Only after I handed it to her did she finally speak--just to say she "already had it" and was "updating the order." That's the kind of communication you apparently have to drag out of them. My appointment was for 10:00 a.m., but I dropped my Jeep off at 9:30 a.m. to give them a head start. The job? An oil change, tire balance, tire rotation, and a quick alignment check. About an hour, tops. I went next door to the gym to kill time. When I came back at 11:10 a.m., my Jeep was still sitting in a bay with nobody touching it--three cars total in the shop, mine included, and an empty alignment bay just collecting dust. We waited another 20 minutes in the sauna they call a lobby before asking for an update. We were told "30 more minutes" and to expect a call or text when it was ready. Noon rolls around--nothing. I finally called, only to be told it had been done for 20 minutes. Their excuse? "Our phones aren't working." Funny, since I was literally talking to them on that same phone. This shop wasn't busy. There was no crisis. Just laziness, bad communication, and a front desk attitude that could sour milk. The Buck Owens Blvd location actually knows how to treat customers--friendly, efficient, and professional. This place could learn a thing or two. The only thing they got right was the price, but even that can't make up for the complete lack of respect for the customer's time. read more

Top notch service quality, gave me decent pricing on all terrains and warranty is awesome. Also patched mom's car for free when she picked up a nail. Don't come here if you want crappy tires for dirt cheap, they aren't the lowest prices in town but they are reputable read more

Great service, very friendly staff and terrific service and quality work. Went in for a screw in the tire this afternoon and this shop was jammed packed with work. They said they couldn't get to it right away but they would get it done before they closed. I left my truck and came back just before they closed and they had it ready. We have been customers of theirs for years and they didn't charge me anything for this. Can't say enough about their great service. Well done. read more

Bought tires here and had them installed and rotated. At my next oil change when they went to rotate my tires, they found multiple lug nuts had been stripped. Almost certainly happened here. Won't be going back read more

This location has an employee named Skyler. He's "helped" me twice and has the worst attitude about everything. It's not hard to be polite and at least pretend you enjoy your job read more

I have used this store for both of my vehicles and each time I have been very impressed by the service I have received. The store is always clean, the employees are always friendly and helpful, and they provide quick service. My reason for this visit was to have my brakes checked or replaced if needed. My normal dealership told me recently that my brakes were very worn and needed replacing asap, but I declined due to the very high cost for them to do it. A couple of weeks later I made an appointment online with Les Schwab for a free brake inspection the next day. Kyle got to work on my car right away and within just a few minutes came to ask me if I had been experiencing any problems with my brakes. I told him, "No" and he informed me that they were worn but still had several thousand miles of wear left on them and the rotors were fine. I was very thankful for his integrity and that of this store. You can bet that I will return to this store when it is actually time to replace the brakes. And they do oil changes as well. read more

Clean, helpful,friendly staff up front. Value is reasonable. Oil changes, tires are quick with an appointment. Tire rotation has been free and they check the wear and tear of brakes while to so. Anytime I need to check air in my tires, they are willing and free of charge without an appointment. read more

I have been to Les Schwab numerous times over the years for flats, getting new tires, etc. I usually come to this location as it is closest. I recently went to have a tire patched for having a nail in it. The service was good. I experienced no problems or issues and that has been the case for as long as I can remember. I really appreciate that Les Schwab provides this service for free. I dealt with Skyler on my last few visits. The visit before my most recent one was also for a flat repair. Skyler was honest in letting me know this tire could not be patched due to the condition it was in. He recommend the left and right tires both be replaced but he also offered to simply air my tire back up if that was all I wanted. I decided to move forward with the replacement. I was provided two options with a clear description of both. They also informed me my other set of tires were still in decent condition and would last another 2-3 rotations. I will continue to come to Les Schwab because I appreciate the quality service. read more

I was in and out in no time! Reasonable prices, great customer service and mechanics , not too far... I'm in!

I never go anywhere else for my tires. I am a senior and they always take care of me. They feel like family. I totally trust them and never disappointed. I HIGHLY recommend them particularly at this branch. read more

I have been doing business with the Calloway location for many years. I have always had good friendly service in a timely manner.

I get all my tires and rotations done here. I usually schedule an appointment with no problems with getting out quick.

Yet again, they nailed it. My guy went in for some brake and rotor replacements. I don't know much more than that as I am not versed in mechanics. The front brake pads and rotors were replaced in three hours and the customer service was on point, AS ALWAYS. They don't do work on your car that is not required. They see what's sick on your car, and they make it better. The thing is, you know how sometimes when you need car work done, and you take it to the shop, and there is this sense of anxiety around how much it will cost and when you will get your car back? Les Schwab completely eliminates that anxiety. That is what the ideal mechanic does. My guy is happy. I am happy. We will not be going to any other place for car help. We are filled with gratitude, yet again! Please note that I do NOT personally know anyone at this company and have no affiliation, just a happy customer. read more

The customer service team is awesome and I would recommend them for everyone. Great tires warranty

Quick flat tire repair at no cost. Friendly and professional. Clean facilities with accommodations for those who wait.

They replaced a bolt on my tires for free. That being said, for over an hour, they took my car and gave me an $700 estimate for work I did not request. In the middle of my work day, they take their sweet time to do everything EXCEPT the task for which I was there. It wasn't until I started reading the stores ratings that the scam is getting you in the door then racking up the costs read more

I've been to a few tire shops I've over the years in the n/w. Some maybe a bit cheaper but I promise you the service and work they do is here is well worth the difference. You won't be waiting all day. They honor appointments and if stand by time frames they say. I've been there with multiple cars for oil changes and tires, brakes etc. never once have they failed me and have always maintained the highest customer service. Only place I go to in bako read more

Ive been doing my tires here for a few years. Always get wonderful service when I come here. They are always wonderful to work with and have had zero complaints. 10/10 recommend ! read more

I was on an RV road trip and started having brake issues. Came in an hour before closing expecting to have to stay the night but everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. They were able to get the parts and offered to stay to get the work done and us back on the road. Great service, 10 out of 10 would break down here again. read more

Been going to the Les Schwab (NW Bakersfield) for brakes and oil changes for at least 5 years now and have always been satisfied with the service; I don't know what has changed but they are not the same. They changed the oil on my F250 and it is due again to be changed and this time I was going to do it myself; well the bolt seems to be stripped and there is a glue type substance around it, Les Schwab has denied it was them (stating they do not use anything like that) but they are the ones that did my last oil change and the same thing was done to our car we took to them. I will not use them again and just ask that if you plan to take your vehicle there take photos, videos and notes so if the same thing happens to you, you have documented proof, I never thought I would have to recommend that to anyone and it sucks because we have always used them and had a great experience. As for me, I now have to take my truck to Ford to have the oil pan re-threaded or replaced. People at Les Schwab are nice but just cover your six so you are not out money for repairs. Maybe management is not aware this product is being used, who knows but not worth the risk in my opinion. read more

This location operates a pickup truck that drives 80 mph down Olive Drive, runs red lights, tailgates and has no regard for community safety. I have seen this on multiple occasions and spoken to the manager, Tyler. The situation continues. read more

They will try to scam you. I went in to get a tire alignment done and replace my front brake pads. They tried to say: "Your tie rod is wollered out, we will have to replace everything or an aligmnent will fo nothing." "Your passenger front brake caliper is completely busted, we'll have to replace it and the rotor" In the end they wanted to do over $1000 worth of replacements. Check the Better Business Bureau, this place is terrible. I took my vehicle to a trusted shop, they found that 3 of my 4 tires were out of alignment, my tie-rods were fine and my brake calipers were normal. Les Schwab will try to scam you. read more

We have several cars and always take them here the service is Fantastic. Prices are always great.

I came here because I had a huge screw in one of my tires. The employee got me in quickly and got it fixed. The customer service was excellent! I will be returning. read more

Very friendly and extremely fast service! I was in and out of there in about 30 minutes and they took care of my tire issue within a matter of minutes. The price was more than reasonable, it was perfect. I thought I was going to pay a lot more. I highly recommend these people, and I will be continuing my business with them in the near future. Hopefully not too soon. Lol. read more

They are a great place to buy tires from but don't take it back for a tire rotation. It will take them a minimum of 3 hours. Take to someone on Rosedale and they will have to ready in 10 minutes read more

I pulled into the shopping center because I was losing tire pressure quickly and made my way over to Les Schwab. I wasn't even 3 steps from my truck before Art was out there to greet me and handle my concerns. The team managed to repair my tire promptly and with such professionalism. Art handed my truck over to Jacob and with the same professionalism he completed the repair. They treated me like I was buying thousands of dollars worth of merchandise and all along they knew they weren't going to charge me. I typically go to GMC for my oil changes but now that I know Le Schwab is around the corner, I rather support a business closer to me for all my vehicle needs. read more

Can you give zero stars? I paid for a very expensive front brake installation here for my Chevy traverse exactly a year ago (out of desperation) and have been a pretty loyal customer for convenience but my husband has always told me this place is too expensive compared to all the other tire shops. These brakes had a 3 year or 25,000 mile warranty. "Rich" claimed in a year my car was right at 25k. No exact number. Even if it was 24,999 miles they should've still honored the warranty. But they demanded another (over) $600. I would never use this place or allow loved ones to do so. read more

We have always had wonderful experience here. Costumer service is outstanding! Friendly, fast, and knowledgeable. Love the lobby area that has popcorn, coffee, water, coloring table for children, they really make it as comfortable and kid friendly as possible... we are life long costumers and highly recommend read more

I don't know where to begin?? I gave them a 3* rating on my first review because of a few reasons, but let me tell you when it comes to customer service they can't be beat. Also their prices are fabulous too. I returned my vehicle after having a new set of tires, shocks, struts, bearings and an alignment done because my anti skid kept activating when going on an on ramp. Come to find out the model and year of vehicle I have is super touchy when replacing the bushings. I won't go into the whole story but they stood behind their work!! Yes Victor did everything in his power to get it fixed and unfortunately it had to go to the dealer because of that problem. These guys will go out of their way to make sure whatever they do, they stand behind their work and that you the customer are happy. I cant say enough of how happy we are with their work and exceptional service. Only if every business had the ethics these guys have. So if you are in the hunt for great prices on tires these are your guys as their prices are great and their service is excellent!! read more

Thanks Jason! You saved my car. Had to come and check Les Schwab out after TF Tire in Delano couldn't balance my car after 3 tries and Clay the manager said it had to be a mechanical issue even though the issue started after they got a hold of my car. They used to be good. I will definitely be coming back to Les Schwab. I had come out from McFarland which is 30 some miles away to Bakersfield to get this second opinion and I'm glad I did. read more

Had a slow leak in my tire. They found the leak, patched it and I didn't have to pay anything. Plus they were polite and helpful.

Such a friendly place to get tires. I had a nail in my tire and since i bought them from this company i was able to go to any location and get it fix for free. If by any chance u did t purchase from them its only 14$ to fix a flat. As soon as you pull up someone greets you right away making you feel very important and like you matter. From what ive seen they have specails happening all the time so def go check them out read more

They went above and beyond servicing my honda. I recently took my honda to the local "certified" honda dealership here in Bakersfield which shall remain nameless. Not only did they fail to correctly troubleshoot the problem, they found a convenient $1300 problem which did not fix tbe original issue l took it there for. The tech at Les Schwab actually took the time to drive the car, hear the noise and identify the problem. And to top it all off, he made a simple fix to correct it. Problem solved. I wish l had come here first! Before you take your car to the incompotents at the dealership, come here first. They might just save you a small fortune-and actually FIX the problem. read more

Andy fixed my flat on my truck quickly and effectively and explained to me in detail how to better treat my tires and what the PSI should be at to maintain the longevity of the tires. Andy also recommended a slight lift on the truck to level it out. Considering it and impressed at the professionalism and salesman skills that I observed. Les Schwab definitely gained a soon to be repeat customer today. Good job read more
