Extremely frustrated with this place which came highly recommend to me from someone who personally…read moreknows the owner. Sept 2018 I went in with overheating issues. I was told I needed to replace the water pump, thermostat, and timing belt. Paid $937. Car started overheating again. Returned it to them saying that didn't work. They looked again and told me it was my head gasket. I asked about trying block seal before I paid that much to have that work done. Block seal did not work. Car was still overheating. So I went ahead and made the appt to do the head gasket. Was told it would take 3-4 days; they had it for 9 (2 they were closed for). I was called during this time and informed that the head gasket work was finished.....but that it had overheated still and that they figured out it was the radiator. I am completely baffled that my radiator was never looked at in the first place. An easy $200 fix.....now I've paid $2,571 for things that probably wouldn't have needed to be replaced if the actual issue had been fixed. Additionally, upon picking up my vehicle I was told they also replaced the water pump and timing belt AGAIN, and was going to charge me for that AGAIN. I was told the water pump was leaking and that the timing belt just needed to be replaced in case of any damage coolant leakage could have caused. I am an extremely unhappy customer because I feel as though 1) I was taken advantage of by being told different things needed to be replaced when I don't know anything about vehicle work so I took their word for it, and/or 2) that whomever was diagnosing my car had no idea what they were doing if they just bypassed looking at my radiator as a cause of the overheating (now that I've looked online that's one of the few things that can cause overheating, so for that to be carelessly overlooked is deceiving to me). Lastly, my water pump replacement in Sept I was charged $141 and the timing belt was $83. Today on my bill the 2nd water pump attempted charge was $133 and the timing belt $70. Which means I was overcharged for the work done way back in Sept anyways. I do not recommend going here.

Unsafe brake work, brake failure, dismissive customer service -- avoid this shop!…read more I brought my 2015 Nissan Titan to Center Tire in Post Falls, ID in February 2024 for front brake hose and pad replacement. I paid around $650. In June 2025, I experienced a complete brake failure. I discovered that the front brake hose had ruptured due to rubbing against the tire during normal steering. This is a clear sign of improper routing or the wrong hose length. It was not a one-off because both front hoses were contacting the tires, and over time that caused one to rupture. The tires are proper fit for my truck as well. I had to pay $201 out of pocket to tow the truck back to Center Tire, using the tow company Steve recommended. Driving the vehicle to the shop was unsafe because there were no brakes. They refused to reimburse me for the (very necessary due to their faulty work) tow. Steve originally tried to deny all responsibility with hypotheticals about snow, but nothing was bent and the damage was occurring on driver and passenger sides. They are the ONLY ones who touched those hoses, but they used aftermarket parts that were not the proper fit, or the hoses were installed incorrectly. After trying to deny responsibility with several hypothetical excuses, Steve was unable to provide a reason for the failure. They replaced the hoses at no charge, which quietly confirmed the original work was at fault, but: - Refused to reimburse the tow - Claimed (without proof that I asked for) that this type of failure is "common." My own research finds that it's not common at all. - Gave conflicting explanations (first blaming "snow" for possibly bending parts, then admitting nothing was bent) - Dismissed the seriousness of the brake failure and treated me rudely when I calmly asked for accountability. His words were "I guess we'll both have to eat sh** on this one," and when I picked up the truck and asked about the tow reimbursement he was very rude and just said "nope, we're done!" This wasn't normal wear and tear. Brake hoses should never make contact with tires and should last many years. It was their original work that caused a safety-critical failure, and they refused to make it right. I've filed formal complaints with the Better Business Bureau and Idaho Consumer Protection Division. I urge others not to risk your vehicle or your family's safety by trusting this shop with brake or critical systems.
