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.

Dan is a great guy who knows what he is talking about, and his mechanics are pretty knowledgeable and kind as well. As a young woman who doesn't know much about cars, I'm always afraid of getting scammed and up-charged; with my luck some other numbnut mechanic out there would try to convince me to buy their "premium air"... I'm happy I found a place where I don't have to worry about that. If you want to patronize a knowledgeable business that practices honesty and integrity, go to La Barge's in Albany :)

Honestly, I was expecting a headache, but the team here was great. Dan and the guys upfront were super welcoming, kept me updated, and didn't try to upsell me on a million things I didn't need.

About 2 weeks later the car developed an oil leak from the area of the crankshaft seal and or the timing cover as well as the front valve cover gasket, all of which he had to change.

Now after 2 weeks of text messages and 2 or 3 phone calls to my place of employment, James said he has not forgot about me. I have now taken the vehicle to another mechanic for the repairs. This review is not about Capital Tech itself but the mechanic. I am expecting these repairs to cost another 300 to 500 dollars on top of the almost 1600 parts and labor already spent.
