All day long. This is the place to go. I don't know why anyone goes to a dealer. My Toyota dealer…read more(doesn't matter which because they all stink equally) during my free routine service told me I needed new tires and quoted me a high number. Went to Labarges. They told my nope. My tires were good. Another routine service. The dealer said I needed new brakes. Labarges agreed, but half as expensive. Most recently. My fan was making a weird noise so I thought they might cover the repair since I was at 40k miles, just outside the warranty of course. They also noticed my state inspection was overdue. Had to pay the dealer a $189 "diagnostic fee" to discover it was just acorns clogging a filter so I needed a need filter and of courses the acorns removed. $21 for state inspection which is failed because I didn't realize this, but I had two chipped taillights (my daughter is 17 and I'll leave it at that) so I'm $250 into the dealer and they tell me it's another $700+ to repair the taillights. So I stop at Labarges. They tell me to go to a junk yard or eBay and order a left inner and a right outer tail light and they'll pop them in for me. $155 on eBay brand new. And I happened to have a slow leak so they said that the sensor is starting to go, it he cleaned it up, but the aluminum sensors are garbage so they wanted me I'll likely need to replace them eventually. Charge to replace the headlights, cleanup sensor, and repair slow leak. $50 because it took them 30 minutes to do all that work. They charge you for the time they spend. A novel thought no? For anyone looking for a mechanic, why go anywhere else? They saved me over $1,000 on my most recent visits from what the dealer wanted to charge me.

I've had a number of bad experiences at local quick -service tire shops. It's been my experience…read morethat they tend to staff the place with low wage workers who know little about cars and simply don't give a hoot about the quality of their work. They're trained primarily to upsell and have large turnover rates. Mr. Tire is close by to me, and I thought they couldn't be any worse. Wrong,. These guys are a nightmare. I had three service visits to swap out my winter/snow tires on my bmw I3. My vehicle has staged wheels. Wide rims/tires in the rear, skinny tires and skinny rims up front. On all three of my visits to store #1326, these geniuses installed my wide set of rims at the front of my vehicle causing my front tires to hyper extend and dig into my suspension. This is a pretty glaring error. Even a layman can look at the rims and see an obvious side difference. The tires visible bulge when this is done. These guys missed that 3 service visits in a row. The store manager there alerted me to the damage on April 16th. He told me that I had some sort of strut problem. I subsequently booked an appointment with pepboys to have my struts examined. After examing my car, Pep Boys informed me that Mr. Tire improperly mounted and installed my tires and rims. They put the wider set up front, and damaged my tires as a result. I had the vehicle towed back to Mr. Tire. When I arrived (via Uber) the shop had my front weels removed and the car on the lift. It looked like they were in the middle of swapping my rims back into their proper place. Think the tech on duty spotted the error, and they were feverishly trying to correct before I showed up. Store manager came out into the office area. He was not happy to see me. He barked "What??!!? What do you want?!!??" I replied....'You see, my car has staged tires..." He cut me off and yelled "No! No!! That would mean I'm responsible for the blowout!!" He proceeded to bring me into the service area and blame the damage on pothole. I needed to contact the ciy for reimbursement" . Said I needed to file a warranty claim. Go talk to the tire vendor. I told him Pep Boys made that diagnosis. He flatly denied the problem. It's the struts nd I need to see a specialist. I contacted Pep Boys again. They reaffirmed their diagnosis. I contacted Mr. Tire again, they again denied responsibility. I had my vehicle towed to Autobahn Center. After several days of my car being offline, they gave me the same diagnosis:improperly installed wheels and rims. I brought this issue to Monro Tire Customer Service. Monro Tire, the parent company, apparently has no real dispute resolution process. Basically one of their reps calls the store, gets their version of events and regurgitates it to you. After 9 days and two escalations they still refused to pay for the damages. I then when to small claims court and demanded $1515. A month later, after Mr. Tire was served with a suit, I was contacted by Traveler's Insurance, After a month, dozens of emails and phone calls, texts and visits I was offered $1239 for damages. They would not cover a refund of the services. Monro did absolute nothing to correct the problem. No refund. No discounts or free service. Nothing in terms of customer service. I had to fight tooth and nail for two months just to have the damagers paid for. Mr. Tire damaged multiple tires, endangered my safety, deprived me the use of my car. They absolutely refused to stand by their work and their parent company did absolutely nothing to rectify the problem. Take a long hard look at the allegations of damage, grossly neglegent work and fraud in the past several months here on google and yelp. I am absolutely gobsmacked by the reckless and irresonsible behavior of the store manager and corporate customer service. Customer service please don't bother leaving a message saying you want me to give you more details. You had multiple opportunities to make this right, and refused. Don't pretend like you give a shit now.

I came here yesterday for an oil change. Beforehand, I called to confirm that this location…read moreaccepted the $29.99 oil change offer listed online, and I was told yes. After my service was finished, I was suddenly told my total was $62. When I showed the coupon on my phone, I was told they don't take it, even though the website shows this location does. I spoke with Shane, who said he was trained to tell customers they don't honor the coupon here. That's simply not true, I've used the exact same coupon at this location before. He told me to return during the week and speak with the manager, Rocky. When I came back today, Rocky told me they've "switched to a new package" for oil changes and that I received more than a standard oil change, he claimed my service included a tire rotation, alignment, and vehicle inspection. I never requested a rotation, and I already have a lifetime alignment package, and they gave me no paperwork showing that an alignment was even performed. On top of that, I was billed $22 for a vehicle inspection I never asked for. To fact-check, I called another Firestone location and they confirmed they still accept the $29.99 coupon with no problem. So Rocky's statement that "none of the Firestones accept it" was false. As a woman, I'm unfortunately familiar with car shops trying to upsell or take advantage, but this experience was particularly disappointing. I've been a loyal Firestone customer for years without issues, but this location has lost my trust.
