I had a very frustrating experience at the America's Tire on Bristol St in Costa Mesa…read more I came in to purchase and install new tires on my vehicle, which has aftermarket Vossen wheels. I provided the proper tools and clearly explained that the wheels require careful handling. During service, I was told that a simple screw securing the wheel cover (center cap)--needed to access the lug nuts--had been stripped and could not be removed. This is a basic, non-structural screw and should not be damaged when handled properly with the correct tool. Instead of resolving the issue, I was sent to a third-party shop, Costa Mesa Brakes & Tires Inc. (literally next door, about a 3-minute walk), where I had to pay $150 out-of-pocket just to remove that single screw. I was also told the two businesses have an existing relationship. No alternative solution was offered, and after waiting nearly three hours, I felt forced to proceed. To make matters worse, one of my wheel covers was damaged while the car was in their care. I was told it was "pre-existing," but I have timestamped photos taken immediately before service showing it was not. I was then quoted $100 per wheel cover to replace it. For context, my car was inspected at another shop the day prior with no issues, and I've used multiple tire shops across Southern California without ever encountering something like this. Overall, this experience showed a lack of accountability and professionalism. Customers should not be paying out-of-pocket for issues that occur during service, especially when being directed to a neighboring business.

Auto shops are notorious for recommending repairs that can wait, at least in my expierence. As a person who does not know much about automobiles, I rely heavily on the character of the person at the front desk. Today that person just happened to be the shop manager, Justin. After spending over $700 on tires and alignment, I was informed that my outer tire rods needed replacement. I was hesitant because I have had bad expierences in the past with other shops. I asked alot of questions and was a little intense while doing it. Justin was professional and answered all my questions and was very good handling pressure. He was short staffed, so he went out there personally and put my car up on the rack and showed me why. I authorize the additional cost and repairs. I felt 100% relaxed with Justin as I could see he operates with integrity! The young mechanic, Juan, made the repairs and the car handles much better now. I am very happy with my service today and highly recommend this shop and asking for Justin when you go in!!

Nice transparency with prices, though be aware advertised price/quote is without tax. Justin and…read moreEnrique have really great teamwork, it got quite busy during the day with customers and lesser staff, but when I came back to pick up, everything felt streamlined and they had cleared out the load. The area has walkable restaraunts/grocery stores, kind of near the road. An oil change estimated around 2.5hrs and the coolant+brakes added another like 2.5 hrs. Went in at 9 and picked up notification at like 2:30PM (wasn't waiting there). No shuttle today (maybe only drop off no pick up), but timely texting. The coffee is pretty good, limited seats inside, solid air conditioning, EXTREMELY CLEAN. They gave me quotes no problem on things I needed to fix and space to do my own research. I appreciate they didn't try to take advantage of a girl/was approachable. There was a google review thingie and coupons for $10 off. Maybe a bit of upsell on the coolant, but i figured my car needed the service once in a while for all the life its had. They suggest a liittle more serious things than I have experienced in the past like shocks/control arms. But overall anything they suggested for immediate repair totaled to a little under $1000 - decent// i did not do everything. I think the tire deals are cheaper than costco (and has some sort of repair warranty), the coolant they use is not the manufacturer brand (a common third party blend, long life), and they offer full synthetic and synthetic blend oil. I came in for an oil change deal ( tip: you can get a coupon if you sign up for the rewards on the chain website too). They also honored super transparently - no price upcharges (basic sedan) besides a bit of tax), the appointment was super easy with a form, email confirmation from the scheduler, coming in at the time- line moved fast. It was a really good deal and I appreciate the nonaggressive sales pitching. Everything was in terms of best interest maintenance. It can be a bit pricy in some things (probably a great deal on tires though), but its probably to the cost of the living area/economy situation of parts. I replaced my rear brake pads and it fixed the squeaking. Overall, I felt like it was a clean earnest location and I was happy to receive the quotes/have an informed choice. Always good to have an idea of what you come here for :). I would come here again, but I guess I do have to see how the quality holds up as I'm not a car person. I'd recommend dropping your car off and walking to the other plazas to try some nice food like crack shack/back bay area walk (if you're motivated to walk that far). Bring a hat as not much shade in the area. They're hiring too!

Fast, straightforward, and reliable. Would definitely recommend.

I used to come to this tire repair shop many years ago, and back then I thought it was a very good…read moredeal. They could patch a tire for about $20 cash, and the service was quick and convenient. At that time, I felt it was a great option. This time, however, my experience was different. I am not sure whether it is because prices have gone up, but the tire looked repairable to me. Still, they told me it could not be patched and that I needed to buy a used tire instead. Since I was already there and the work needed to be done, I ended up paying $60 for a used tire. What disappointed me most was that I originally thought I would be able to keep my old tire and take it home, because I believed I could patch it myself and keep it as a spare. In the end, that was not how it worked. Their used tire replacement process meant they kept my original tire and gave me another used tire in exchange. So it did not really feel like I was simply buying a used tire for $60. It felt more like I was trading in my old tire, which did not even have a hole that obvious to me, and still paying $60 on top of that. The service was done quickly, but the overall experience left me feeling less satisfied than before. Next time, I would definitely compare prices and ask more questions at a few other shops before making a decision.on the car

It's scaled back and honest - no pretense. It reminds me of every auto shop my Dad took my brother and I Dad to as children: The technicians/mechanics in their blue uniforms, with large, blackened hands that feel as strong as a vice, the manager who looks just out of the shower, and the cashier/owner/partner - usually the heart and/or soul of the business. It looks, feels, smells, and probably bleeds tire shop; a small business, a slice of the American dream. I love it. IDK what other services they offer but I do know that they'll mount and balance your tires, but they do not perform alignments. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend MEXICALI TIRE SHOP!!! I could not be happier. I was in and out in 15 minutes - NO JOKE! One patron drove all the way from Dana Point to get his new tires at Mexicali Tire Shop. That should tell you everything you need to know.

Feb 14, 2026…read more Unfortunately my new Kia Soul ran over a large metal screw yesterday afternoon, in Fountain Valley CA. I only became aware that there was a problem when the low tire pressure warning light began to flash on the dash, and a warning tone started beeping. I drove to closeby Firestone Service and they had a 3 hour wait or possible first thing in the morning reschedule back log. I next drove to our local Kia Dealer in Huntington Beach, and they indicated a minimum charge of $65 plus leave the car a few hours... but advised that probably the tire would have to be replaced anyway because of the size of the bolt stuck I the tread. Needing to get home, I next dropped into Big O Tires on Beach Blvd in Huntington Beach, where they quickly looked at the tire and said the tire wasn't repairable, and it appeared that my smaller tire size wasn't in stock. Courteous staff, however. Plan B now meant replacing two tires at Costco early the next morning (two tires of the same size and brand and tread pattern, rather than buying one oddball brand replacement tire with a different tread pattern...also the factory spare was a limited-use temporary style). Fortunately, I heard about MexicalI Tire Corp of Costa Mesa from a neighbor who had an RV tire repaired recently, and seeing really great reviews on YELP, I decided to give hopeful repair chances one more try. I drove in to their Costa Mesa location on Saturday without an appointment, at 11:30 am, and was immediately greeted by two service techs who quickly removed the wheel from the vehicle, inspected, pressure and leak tested the tire, completed an internal tire surface grind and patch activity placement (not a plug!), refilled the tire and verified the correct pressure, and replaced the tire back. 25 minutes, start to finish. $20.00 was the total cosh... Cash or charge. Clean and friendly service, family-operated small business, no frills, no bait and switch games or "come back later" because were to busy attitude...just good work, quick service, affordable repairs, and a major cost savings compared to having to replace near new tires that only have 5,000 original miles on the set! Most impressed. Definitely a keeper. Their business card is in my glove box. Kia Owner in HB

They don't sell used tires but he asked his employee went and checked for one and found one for my 2020 Toyota Sienna. He found a pretty good one with 50% tread left. I said how much? $40 with installation and no tax. 10 minutes later is was on my car, and all tires were cleaned with tire lotion. I gave them $40 plus $10 tip for their honesty, great help in finding me a spare in their used tire that day, and for their extreme efficiency in putting the tire on my car...( they call it NASCAR tire changing like they do in races.
