This morning when they opened, I talked with the owner, Donny. He found my tires but in LA and the needed overnight shipping. So he loaned me two tires and installed them until mine arrive tomorrow. He charged me fair prices and was all about service. I would totally recommend these guys if you are in need of tires in Hot Springs, AK.

December 29th i walked into western auto and explained i had a power steering high pressure hose…read moreleaking, and i needed a break job full set. Shop had one customer, and an empty bay. After waiting all day for info on my car, i called right before closing and hadnt gotten to my car( lady on the phone in the shop was talking to a friend on the phone about the friends car. [ i assume they worked their friends car before mine, and she wasnt even present.] Anyways. I get a call the next morning confirming my repair order. They finish in a couple hours and i come pick up my car for a price cheaper than my quote, but i didnt question it and paid ive been coming here for over 15 years. I get home park and have yo leave to the store later and i notice the same giant power steering leak puddle that was fresh. I head back up to western auto expecting my mechanics to have my back but to be greeted by a rude lady at front counter. I voice my frustrations at the situation and explaoned how daft it was replace my power steering pump when the hose was the part that was leaking. It was a steady drip falling right onto the pump itsself. If the mechanic would have inspected the repair he would have seen it. Mechanic comes out explaining hisself and the situation and couldnt justify why he didnt do the work i asked for other than to save me money. They couldnt fix their mistake and asked me to come bacm on new years day. I did and they were too booked to get me fixed on what was said was less than an hr job. No accountability, the front counter lady claimed i was cussing at her and even tried to tell me to take my business elsewhere. Its a shame the owner died because what we are left with is not western auto. This business will replace parts without your consent, and add work to a bill that was un needed. Ive had two issues in the last 12 months, and with my last visit they never gave my engine cover back. After speaking to them twice about my frustrations they would rather burn a bridge than fix a mistake they made.

I started initially giving him a 4-star rating but after reading this you will see why I dropped…read morehim down to 3 stars. I feel this was generous. He had a fast reply after I inquired about a mobile mechanic here last Monday. Stayed in contact but was forgetful even with text messages. Flexible hours. I paid for my parts ahead of visit. That was my decision. He offered to pick one up. He was very quick replacing the alternator and knowledgeable. After replacing alternator we discovered that we needed a new battery. He offered to pick it up. I chose to buy the battery online and then had it brought to the car for us (I'm under doctors orders to not lift anything over 5 pounds or else I would have done the entire repair). We agreed that he would return to replace the battery for me. I texted him telling him we received the battery and we are ready for him when he's done with a quick fix on the next all. Well, he never showed up! There goes his Yelp rating and recommendation.

Last summer, I didn't need tires, but I did need help getting the tire on my zero turn mower back…read moreon its bead. Try as I might, I couldn't finagle that sucker on there so I finally put it on the trailer and drove over to Plaza tire. They were hammered and it was about 2 o'clock on a very hot August day. I was more than happy to wait my turn in line and just wanted to ask if they might be able to help me with this. Imagine my shock when one of their employees asked me to meet him at the trailer in a minute or two. I don't remember his name, but he was a slender older man probably in his early 60s with a beard and mustache. He proceeded to remove the entire wheel assembly from the front end of the mower since he also couldn't get it to reseat on the bead. Walked off with it, and about three minutes later he came back and reinstalled it. I asked him what I owed him and he said "nothing, I'm on my lunch and it only took a minute to do this." I insisted on at least picking up an 18 pack of his favorite cold beverage, and he finally, after three attempts, accepted. Skip ahead to last week and I remembered what amazing service I got there and how nice they were. So I took my little BMW back over there to get new tires and they had exactly what I needed in stock and within 45 minutes they were balanced and installed. I was able to purchase new tires for this car for almost exactly half of what I paid for the same tires in California six years ago. They're honest, you may have to wait sometimes, because they're incredibly popular with their customers, but you're gonna get your moneys worth and it's gonna be delivered with a smile. Their service manager is a really nice man as well. Don't sleep on this tire shop, they're fantastic.

The guys at the Hot Springs, AR shop are INCREDIBLE! This location just transitioned to a Plaza…read moreTire Shop this week and I threw them for a big loop on day one. I was the first customer to use an Emkay Fleet card for service and Lee had to spend a ton of time calling a bunch of different people to figure out how the shop would get paid. As a note, this shop is ALWAYS slammed, so the guys don't get a lot of down time to handle things when a customer isn't in front of them. I know Lee had to have been spending all his spare time handling my vehicle. In a time and environment where customer service is obsolete, Lee is exceptional in all facets. Further, this is where I bring my personal and work vehicle and will continue to do so as long as I live in this area. It's not only because of their fair pricing, but mostly because of the incredible customer service I've experienced EVERY SINGLE TIME I've been there in the past 5 years. Plaza got a gem when they acquired this shop!
