They broke 4 bolts on the timing cover and broke off all the plastic bolt tabs that hold it on. When I asked them about the damage they said it was all there before I brought it in.

Well then why the heck didnt you tell me about it and replace it. instead they cobbled it together with a bunch of washers and rigged it to stay in place.

When I said I would have bought a new cover if they had told me...he got real snooty with me and said they dont have time to leave my car up on the stand waiting for parts. I came in 2 hours after they started the work and asked if they thought I needed any more parts.. The answer was no.. everything is fine. Mind you the timing cover was off already but he never showed it to me. I wonder why... hmmm...... And they had the car there 2 days.

I noticed almost a week later that there was still an exhaust leak. Called them and got it in a week or so later. They checked it out and told me I have several exhaust leaks and it would cost $1000 to fix the whole exhaust system. Not right at all in my opinion.

Unfortunately I did not have a good experience. I honestly believe I was taken advantage of. I had called to see about bringing my vehicle in and described in detail what the issues were. I understand that they would obviously have to do their own inspection but when I asked about the "charge " not once but TWICE I was told no. And I expressed gratitude because I had already paid another mechanic shop for the inspection. Trust and believe I knew the cost for the repairs would not be inexpensive but with the recommendation I had high hopes the total cost would be less than my first estimate. Two major let downs I have- instead of replacing two tires I was given an additional estimate for the tires alone- when originally with the estimate I was under the assumption that those tires were included. I assumed because I made it a clear point that I absolutely needed those tires replaced. But the service advisor (I believe his name is William/Bill) was quick to elaborate how they rotated my tires AT NO CHARGE. I had to hold my breath so I didn't say anything rude. He made it seem like they did me a favor../ which is definitely not the case because the tires are NOT safe to drive on, whether or not they are placed in the front or back. There is also charges on my invoice that was NOT discussed previously. The second MAJOR let down was an issue that I myself had to bring up. Even after the CHARGED inspection they were not aware of. The shift cable bushing needed to be repaired. Well they installed a new one but didn't repair the problem. Less than 10 minutes after we left the shop my son was at kwik trip to fill up gas tank. Well the car wouldn't shift out of park. Thank goodness for google because I was able to move the shifter under the hood myself to get the car to shift. Yes I called the shop to discuss my frustration and let them know about the current situation, and not being able to shift out of park. The service advisors only solution was to get it towed back to shop. Absolutely disgusted. I ended up driving car back to the shop where a mechanic listened to my concerns but didn't have a solution. My son and I left extremely discouraged. If you've read this entire review thank you. read more

After calling AAA who outsource to a towing company (my 2015 Caravan does not have a spare, just a temporary repair kit) that was too busy to tow me, my Daughter-in-law from Mequon arrived. She removed the tire and we drove around the north side of Appleton, and stopped at 4 different places---no one had the time to fix my tire. Rays Tires is across the street from Fleet Farm so we walked in and the guys took care of us!!! Service beyond expectations!!! Chivalry is not dead. I can't say enough about the personal care they offered. I only wish I lived closer so I could always rely on them for Auto care!!!

21 year customer but not one to place a review because "that's where we've always gone"…read more We've trusted Rays for tire replacements, alignments, and other work. Two examples of "major issue becomes minor" lead to the 5 star rating. 1. We received 2 quotes for a major amount of engine work and then break work from an official dealership location within eyeshot/walking distance after routine checkups. Ray's Tire provided a 2nd opinion helping us understand what was truly occurring, what was required and other options. $4k in savings between dealership and reality. 18 months later the vehicle in question is running fine despite "impending doom" from said dealership. 2. Our van developed a horrible squealing sound, trouble breaking, turning and driving..nearly overnight. A hickory nut had lodged between parts of the break assembly. Rays removed the offending tree nut and didn't exaggerate any cost at all. Many places...without names...in Appleton..would charge steeply for the simply action taken, and quote 1-2k in unneeded charges just for your trouble. Ray's Tire is truthful, accurate, provides value and quality work.

My appointment was for 1pm. My car wasn't moved from where I parked it until 1:25. I thought once they had my car in the garage and had a look at it that they would come out to the waiting room to give me my options. Instead, they installed a $254 battery; they thought this was ok for a 20yo car. There was no communication with me regarding anything until 2:45 when Brian came to the waiting room to inform me of $2000 worth of work that my car needed, which included $761 for 2 rear struts. I never asked for a full car inspection. I thought I would not be able to leave, but I was informed the battery was not yet installed. I didn't get out of there until 4 pm. Once I arrived home I took a closer look at my receipt and saw that I was billed $85 for a "charging system test" which I did not ask for, nor was it necessary. I then looked under the hood and saw that even though they had my car for 3 hours, they couldn't take a minute to do a courtesy top-off to the power steering fluid and brake fluid, but instead left them at below the low mark. The AAA battery they installed had a black date sticker of 6/24; a one-year old battery.
