My experience with Big O Tires was incredibly disappointing. I brought my Honda in for what I believed would be routine repairs, including motor mounts and a radiator replacement. Unfortunately, it quickly became evident that the technicians lacked the necessary expertise for the job.
Upon receiving my car back after the repairs, I immediately encountered transmission issues. Despite assurances from Big O Tires, the transmission began malfunctioning the very next day, exhibiting erratic behavior. Seeking assistance, I returned to Big O Tires for a diagnosis, only to be met with incompetence and excuses. Their inability to identify the root cause of the issue was evident, and their proposed solutions were both costly and uncertain.
The situation took a turn for the worse when my transmission failed completely as I left Big O Tires after requesting an inspection to determine why my car was not functioning properly following their repairs. This left me stranded on the highway; I had to call roadside assistance for a tow. Frustrated and desperate for answers, I sought the opinion of a seasoned mechanic with over 40 years of experience. He came by and spent 2 hours inspecting and went over with me what will cause this to happen so suddenly and pointed out how badly the radiator was done, clear to see someone who did not know what they were doing did the work on my car. His assessment was clear: the transmission failure was a direct result of Big O Tires' negligence, specifically, the use of incorrect transmission fluid after the radiator replacement. This oversight could have been avoided had they used the appropriate fluid for my Honda.
Furthermore, their failure to acknowledge the glaring errors in their workmanship is concerning. The shoddy radiator installation, noticeable to any trained eye, was completely overlooked on both occasions, despite my concerns raised after the initial repairs.
Adding insult to injury was the dismissive attitude displayed by the staff, including William at the front desk. His claim that he would not let my car leave in such condition raises serious doubts about their inspection process and attention to detail.
In response to these failures, I have lodged a complaint with the BBB and am considering legal action to hold Big O Tires accountable for their incompetence and disregard for customer satisfaction.
Save yourself the hassle and avoid Big O Tires at all costs. Their incompetence and dismissive service are unacceptable.
Posted this to a neighborhood app and so many people have come out the woods with similar bad experiences, definitely steer clear of this place, they clearly don't know how to work on cars very well and if they break yours they will not help to fix and point the finger elsewhere. read more
