I never have to wait very long, and Monty is always wonderful! He's friendly, helpful, and provides great service every time. I always have a positive experience! read more

We've been going to this Big O store for 25 years and have always felt fairly treated and confident in their professionalism. Josh and Spencer are knowledgeable and pleasant to deal with. read more

Second time this location has burned me. This time I had my appointment set for 2pm showed up 150 pm with nobody in the shop however my car didn't go back for repairs until 316 pm. No reason no explanation just lack of timely customer service and communication. No reason for me to be sitting there that long like that and them doing nothing. read more

I just want to give a big thank you to the team at Big O Tires in Columbia, MO. I received an excellent estimate on all four tires and was really impressed with the deal. I wasn't able to make it back to that location, so I ended up getting my tires at another Big O Tires nearby, but I truly appreciated the kindness and professionalism I experienced. Great customer service, knowledgeable staff, and a welcoming attitude made the experience even better! read more

I just wanted to come on here and say a BIG ENORMOUS HEARTFELT THANK YOU to Monte who works at Big O Tires in Columbia, MO. He gave me an estimate (a really good deal on all 4 tires. I was supposed to take a trip back to Columbia, MO and bring my car to this location but, my tires probably wouldn't have made it back there. I was able to get my tires at another Big O Tires location in my area. Again BIG Thank You to Monte. He was very polite, charismatic, great customer service, knowledgeable in mechanic vocabulary, friendly, and had a big smile on his face. He deserves a raise. *‿* read more

I would be super wary of these guys. Just seriously don't do it. Went in to get my car realigned and they told me I had bad ball joints and they couldn't realign them until they were replaced. They said even though it was a really bad issue it could "wait." In my mind those two things don't go together. They whipped up a 1800 dollar bill of things they "needed" to do. When I went to another shop, the most highly rated shop on yelp, to get my car realigned they did it no problems and I haven't had problems with the alignment of my car since, it's been like 8 months. I just recently went in, in a pinch, because the thermometer in my car has said my engine has been overheating when I drive longer than like 5 miles. It has been so bad it has been dinging at me because when I start driving the thermostat goes above the highest temperature. I was told it would be 40 bucks for them to check out the car, and when they called, they said they couldn't get it to overheat and my coolant was full. 40 bucks for checking my coolant?? Not the service I was paying for. I asked them to look further because if I didn't find the issue it would cause extreme damage to my engine, which they said they would and when I called back they forwarded my call to the mechanic who told me the exact same thing as the other guy the first time, so it was clear they didn't look further. I think they are just looking for some cash and will mark up your car way past what needs to be done if they have time. If they don't have the time or are feeling lazy, they won't give your car the time of day and that will cause a million problems down the road. read more

These people are deliberate liars! I was the second person in the door on 9/17/24 at 7:02 am. i asked for a Missouri State Vehicle inspection, and was told it would take a few minutes, so please take a seat. Both Brian and Spencer lied to me. 2.5 hours later,they still had not started my inspection, inspite of me asking "when?" several times. They all were too busy working on other peoples problems that are presumable more profitable.... such as changing a cabin filter, replacing a "damaged" oil drain plug, tracking down why a "check engine" light was on, and fixing flat tires. I really do not care how or what part of the auto care market they want to focus on. But, I will not be lied to! I finally asked for my keys back and left. I will never be back! Ken Greer read more

Great place to take your car! Russ was super helpful and a great person to ask questions. Small world..we go to the same country club :)

I could not afford a full set of tires Jeff and Nick helped me get financing to stay safe this winter. They were VERY helpful to keep me safe on the road, otherwise I could not get to work. I compared their prices to others and they were right on. So, that relieved my worries there, too. Keep up the honest good work guys. Thank You!!!! read more

Great service repacking my trailer when bearings while traveling. Good quality work and value. Very friendly and helpful staff!

Have been using Big O for years and have always been pleased with the quality of their customer service and the cost effective repairs. I trust the team at Big O Tire. read more

Stopped in for a vehicle inspection, but the manager informed me it was unnecessary because my vehicle was less than 10 years old and had less than 150k in mileage. I recently moved back to Missouri and was unaware of the change to the law in 2019. Saved me a lot of time. Thanks, Big O! read more

I worked with Zach. He was helping with offering ways to save money on my purchase by showing me a finance program that would save $100. They also told me that my wait time would be two hours (which seemed really fast for how many people were coming in), I was in and out in about an hour and a half. All in all I'll be back, but hopefully not anytime soon. read more

Needed a safety inspection- went in early on a Tuesday and the guys were great. They advised that it would take a couple hours due to other jobs / business. I left it there( they would have gave me a ride but I was close enough to walk). They text me an hour later saying it was ready. Cost was $12 (no up charges) and and check- out efficient . I would return the guys were great. read more

Prepare for smooth salesmanship. Left and found another local shop that was fast, honest and genuinely cared about taking care of their customers. read more

I've accepted the fact that, as a resident of Mid-Missouri and a woman of color, car shops will not always be the most empowering places in my life. I've come to Big O Tires on Peachtree for years though, and they have always been really kind. I haven't found a hint of condescension in my conversations with them. The reason I won't give up those next two stars is that sometimes they can be infuriatingly vague and slow. For example, my piece-O-shit car was making scraping noises consistently for a week. When I brought it in and asked for a diagnosis, I got the impression I'd get one immediately. I was there for an hour and fifteen minutes and finally got fed up, went up the counter and asked about it only to find out they hadn't even test driven it yet. I had to call my mother out of work to pick me up and return me to the office as I was already half an hour late to my shift. That being said, when they called with the diagnosis I went ahead and told them to fix it because I know no one will be as honest or do a better job. read more

What started off as a routine tire warranty matter turned into a bit of an issue when my car was vandalized while at the shop. Management handled things beautifully and left me with a positive experience and my first choice for future services. I'd highly recommend. read more

They are incredibly nice. Their customer service was great. They got me in 24 hours after calling however it was surprisingly expensive my bill was about $1500 however they also did a ton of work on my car they did brakes tires oil change etc. they were so kind and they were great at communicating and I do feel like they did awesome work my car feels like I'm driving a brand new vehicle. read more

This place is useless. I took my car there about 3 months ago to get the alignment fixed. 4 hours and a huge bill later it's not fixed. Flash forward about a month I go back for the same problem and an oil change. At least 3 and a half hours go by only for me to find out they hadn't changed my oil. Another hour went by and they successfully changed my oil and still didn't fix my alignment issue. About 3 months later I needed 4 new tires. I was told it wouldn't take more than 45 minutes to an hour so I decided to wait. I ended up waiting there 4 and a half hours only to get in my car to see my TPMS light was on. I went back and asked if there was a problem and they told me that it would be off by the time I got home. It wasn't. Then I noticed all 4 of my new tires were leaking. Now I have to go back AGAIN. read more

Was in Columbia for a conference from KC and walked out of my session to find a flat tire. Big O just happened to be the closest place. Called and Russ took pity on me and worked me in. One hour and a patch later I was on my way and was $20 bucks for the work. Nice guys and saved the day! read more

Big O Tires saved my butt! Last weekend I came from Kansas City after running the Sedalia Half Marathon earlier that morning and was tired and ready to take a shower. Problem was...my trunk wouldn't open! The lock had been messed up years previously when my key broke in it so the only way to get it open was to pull on the latch inside the car. At this particular moment, however, it decided to not work and all my things were in there! Being a Saturday afternoon, almost nobody was still open in town. Didn't know if Big O Tires would be able to help me but I stopped by and explained my predicament. Fortunately they had a mechanic on duty who had time to take a look at it. After taking the back seat apart he found that the culprit was....the ice scraper! It had gotten lodged in the locking mechanism, thereby preventing the trunk from opening. I was SO relieved. Even better, he didn't charge me for it and wouldn't have it any other way....wow! Big O Tires saved my butt! read more

This place sucks. I have been waiting 2 1/2 hours for a simple tire rotation! I was told it would be 1 1/2 hours when I called and arrived Never again!!!!!!!!!! read more

Do not take your car here... I have taken my car here two times for an oil change and both times had my car sit in the parking lot for over 3 hours until I finally had to ask them for my keys back... worst customer service I have ever had and used to love to take my car here. What a shame and on both occasions have not given me anything to help the situation read more

Ryan at the Peachtree location is a customer service professional who goes over and beyond what it takes to serve the customer. It helps that he also knows what he's doing Scott read more

This place is awesome if you aren't in a big hurry to get your vehicle back - they're pretty much always busy on Saturdays or afternoons. They have been absolute lifesavers for me before - they don't just do tires and oil changes! When my transmission completely cr*pped out on my 2005 Ford Explorer, they were able to rebuild one for me over the course of a few days. It's run like a dream ever since! I trust them to take care of me and my vehicle. read more

Excellent shop! I'm a woman who knows very little about cars but does understand moving parts (I am a somewhat competent cycle wrench). I don't want to be talked down to by staff but I do want to know what I am paying for and why. In the past, many shops in Columbia have tried to charge myself and friends for random things that either were totally optional or just not all that important at that particular time. I found one place that was okay but suddenly their prices doubled. I came here at the recommendation of a female friend. I use them for basic maintenance and tire repair - stuff that HAS to be done to keep my car running great. Their oil change is very affordable, they usually have great coupons, and the service is great. So far, I've bought a tire when I had a blow out flat, got my oil changed and alignment checked, and had my alignment done. The guy in charge is always willing to try to get something in your price range. He knows I'm a grad student and always helps me out. No one there has ever been anything but pleasant (even when they were super busy and some customers were being downright rude) and everything is on the up-and-up. They explain things without being patronizing and treat women and men alike with respect. In two trips and several interactions, they have earned a customer. No, it is not the swankiest place in town and they don't do everything but I trust them with the routine maintenance of my 5 year old car which I want to keep running for as long as possible. read more

I needed new tires. Naturally, #BigOTires seemed like the first step. I called and spoke to a very nice gentleman named Caleb. Caleb answered all of my questions and gave me quotes for quite a few models on tires. I decided on the tires I needed and gave Caleb all my car and contact info. I asked him if they were available to get me in within the next 20 min and he said they could squeeze me in. When I arrived, I asked for Caleb and we went over the details and he took my keys. I opted to walk down the street for a slice of pizza while I waited. OK, in all honesty, I DREED going back to these places. They always try to sell you 10 different things, after they have told you the bad news that your car needs a "thingamajob" and a "tinkereytoo". I get it, I don't drive a Mercedes and I probably need to keep up on maintenance more than I do, I get it! Anyway, when I got back to Big O Tires one hour later (the time they told me it would take), I was pleasantly surprised to see them lowering my car and backing it out of the shop. I asked if it was ready and they told me they would pull it around. Not five minutes later, I was paying my tab and the only question they asked me was "Do you need anything else from us today, Leeann". MIND. BLOWN!!! They didnt try to sell me one, single, thing, that I didn't need. The entire staff at Big O Tires was great. I will totally be back for all my automotive needs!!!! read more

Went somewhere initially to get my flat tire fixed. I assumed it was just a small hole that could be patched, but the place told me a patch wouldn't work and needed a whole new tire. I wasn't buying it, I then stopped by Big O Tires and told them my problem and they explained that it could be patched and was only going to cost $20. They saved me $140 and their honesty went a long way. Couldn't recommend the staff enough if you're ever wondering where to get your tires fixed. read more

I love coming here! They always provide excellent customer service, they do well with my vehicle and I've never disappointed. Russ is awesome!! read more

Got my flat tire fixed there today and it was fast and free since I bought my tires there. The guys were nice and the waiting area was clean and comfortable. Thanks guys!! read more

Big O was more than happy to install tires and wheels that I purchased on Craigslist on my truck. I was able to get in and out without a long wait and the price they charged me was very fair. I needed someone to remove the old tires from the old rims and dispose of them and they took care of that as well. They were staffed with friendly and professional people. read more

I went on a busy Saturday morning and it took them over 4 hours to change my flat tire. I also asked to have the tire sensors looked at and possibly replaced and service was not performed. I returned the following Monday since something just wasn't right with the new tire. Guess what, they put the wrong size tire on my car. Ryan, the manager was more than apologetic and helpful in replacing the tire with the proper size and dealing with the tire sensors as I originally asked. I was given a discount on the new sensors and reimbursed some money for the smaller, cheaper, and proper tire. However, as helpful and polite as the management is, I will never return to BigO as I absolutely do not trust them now. Throughly disappointed. read more

Got a tire patched there today, while they took quite a while just for a simple tire patch they were polite and friendly. I will say the price was a little on the hefty side for what it was. I mean $20 for a tire patch seams quite high if you ask me. read more

I've had to come in a few times for issues with tires (one blew on the highway, one popped, both accidents) and every time they got my car in very quickly, 20 minutes or less, and were super efficient and helpful. The most quality customer care I've ever had anywhere. Very trustworthy. Also they have good deals constantly, if you're in a situation where you can wait a bit to have a service done! read more

I've brought several vehicles here over the years and this has usually been my go to place until now. I had some work done and when I pick my vehicle up my $600 pioneer touch screen radio won't work and one of my aftermarket lights didn't work. I called them the next day and brought my car back in. They fixed the light but washed their hands of the radio issue. I'm now in the processes of contacting corporate and the BBB. I'm not going to just look the other way when I bring my vehicle in and my radio was working completely fine and then when I pick it up it's fried. Time to take responsibility!!! read more

Big O is the place to go! I don't know if they still have Ladies day on Thursday, but it's the only place I've ever gotten an oil change and a rose! They're kind and courteous. I've taken three different vehicles there through the years and I've always found them to be honest and helpful. read more

Today I stopped into Big O Tires to have my tires checked out due to a slow leak that was occurring from a patch that they had plugged in a tire previously. I wasn't expecting to get hit with the news that I needed two new tires. I looked at the manager, Bob, like he was just trying to take advantage of another woman that didn't know a thing about cars. Bob Reassured me that swindling me was the last thing he wanted to do and was absolutely concerned about my safety. The guys at the shop were thorough and provided excellent service. They all went above and beyond to help me in my dire situation. read more

The Big O Tires located at Peachtree Dr, Columbia MO really ticked me off on Thursday, 12/05/13. I took my VW GTI to do a quick oil change and tire rotation at 2:30 pm. There were only 2 customers ahead of me. I waited until 4pm, the car was still not in the shop. I had someone to pick me up due to other arrangement. They called about 6pm and told me the car is ready. So my friend took me back. When I got there, the car is NOT ready. They said they have called the wrong person or they had the car mixed it up. Around 7 my car was finally ready. BUT, they forgot to do the tire rotation, and they told me to come back the next day. Friday afternoon, my husband got home before I do, and found some oils on my parking spot, and the car was definitely leaking some oils, and I had to take the car back again. They kept apologized to me, but this was a truly bad experience for me. read more

I went in and asked about a knocking sound while turning/going over bumps, and thought an alignment might help. They did the alignment that day, but couldn't find the knocking. Took my car in the next day for them to tell me that I had bad ball joints. I replaced the ball joints myself after the expensive quote. Took the car back in to get re-aligned within the warranty period of the alignment, but they charged me again since I did work on it myself. My issue is that they charged me for a bogus alignment the first time since a ball joint check should have been done. Will be taking my business elsewhere next time. read more

I got an oil change and tire rotation on Thursday. I was impressed with the staff and excited when it didn't take as long as I had expected. I went out of town this weekend and shortly into my trip my back passenger tire started making an awful noise. My brother-in-law checked it out and found two of the lugnuts were completely off, and all of the others on my back two tires had only been hand tightened. He says I'm lucky the tires had not yet fallen off.... I will NOT be returning to Big O!!!!! read more
