This street lamp (the one that's supposed to be facing the main Firestone building) blinds anyone who's driving past them on their way to Target. You can't even see what's coming from the opposite direction when the light is in your face. It's enough of a hazard under normal circumstances--imagine if someone had a migraine and was trying to drive through here.

I took my 2010 Ford Focus and bought two new front tires for $269. My car has the lifetime alignment that bought back in 2012 for $300 and that gives me the alignment for free... an epic deal by Firestone! A couple hours later I got a call from FS stating that they were unable to do my alignment because the left and right tire rods needed to be replaced and they were unable to get the alignment done without replacing both parts. Firestone quoted me out the door $456. That sounded a lot to me...so I politely stated I would shop around for a bit. Brought it to Hollis Brothers in Barrington because he said he could replace the left and right tire rods for $195.. which is half of what FS wanted. But that sounded like a deal to me! Got a call a couple hours later from Hollis Brothers stating that there was absolutely nothing wrong with my tire rods and that there should be no reason why FS couldn't do the alignment.. Firestone said that the outer rods were completely frozen and Hollis brothers said that they didn't even need to heat up the rods that he could just twist them with no problem. Dave from Hollis brothers offered to do the alignment there but it would be anywhere from $130-287 depending on how bad it needed aligned.. I seriously felt betrayed.. I called back and talked to Chris and he just stated that he would show me the tire rods if I brought back the car but considering since he didn't do the repair he was just standing by the notes.. but now I don't know what to do.. because now I feel that if I bring back my car to Firestone for the alignment... how do I know if FS will even do it!? I feel upset because I bought new tires from Firestone just so I could get this alignment done for free but now the trust is kinda broken. I'm just feeling really disappointed and stressed because now I don't know what to do. Below are pictures from Firestone stating I needed new outer tire rods and Hollis stating that everything is fine so everyone knows I'm not making this up..

The glue holding the old wheel weight was not removed. Just the weights. Wish the technician could have removed the old glue while the wheel was off the vehicle. Overall though a great job by Firestone and the crew!

Called and asked if they would be willing to do a wheel alignment on my Vette. Set appointment and was told it would be 2 hours. 2hrs later, they balanced the tires and refused to align the vehicle stating they needed to use a blow torch... Right. Left and was welcomed by Wauconda Care Care where they inspected and no torch was needed or used. (I attached a picture car needing a blow torch) Shame I have lifetime alignment through Firestone-maybe a different location?

This is me being upset.

Made an appointment for 10 am. Arrived at 10 am exactly at the shop. My car was pulled in for service at 11:20. It seems they know how to make an appointment, they just don't know how to keep it. The mechanic did a wonderful job aligning the steering system of my car and I am very happy with the technical part of the service.

Quote for unnecessary parts and service.

Solid reliable auto repair and tire dealer. I've done business here twice in the last year and have…read morebeen pleased with customer service, ease of scheduling, quality of repairs.

I am extremely disappointed with my experience at Belle Tire. I scheduled an appointment for 8:30…read moreAM, and my tires were already in stock and ready for installation. I dropped my vehicle off promptly at 8:30 AM and walked home because I had to work. I specifically informed the representative that I needed my vehicle back no later than 2:30 PM so I could pick up my children from school. At 2:45 PM, after receiving absolutely no calls or updates, I contacted the store myself to check on my vehicle. To my complete disbelief, MY CAR HAD NOT EVEN BEEN TOUCHED! Apparently, the work order had my previous vehicle listed, and because the employees couldn't locate that vehicle, they simply did nothing. No one thought to call me, verify the vehicle information, or investigate why the car wasn't there. Meanwhile, my actual vehicle was sitting at their location for over SIX HOURS! What made this even more frustrating was that the representative told me they could complete the tire installation in just 30 minutes. So you're telling me my car sat there for over six hours, untouched, for a job you could supposedly complete in half an hour? I had already explained that I needed my vehicle by 2:30 PM to pick up my children. That deadline was completely disregarded. I ultimately left the store without my new tires installed, after wasting nearly my entire day. To make matters worse, the representative offered to reschedule my appointment and provide a $100 discount for the inconvenience. Frankly, I found that offer insulting considering the complete lack of communication, accountability, and professionalism. This was a $1,400 tire purchase that Belle Tire completely mishandled. How does a business manage to lose a $1,400 sale over something as basic as verifying a customer's vehicle and communicating with them? Mistakes happen, but leaving a customer's vehicle untouched for six hours without a single phone call is unacceptable. My time is valuable, and so are my responsibilities as a working parent. Belle Tire, you didn't just waste my time. You lost my trust and my business. I expected far better customer service, organization, and accountability. Extremely disappointing experience, and I would strongly reconsider trusting this location with my vehicle again.

My daughter lives in the city and she brought her car out to me because her steering wheel wasn't "straight" and she was hearing a noise sometimes when she turned. I drove the car and couldn't recreate the noise she was hearing after circling around a parking lot for ~10 minutes. I made an appointment with Lindberg Automotive (after getting a referral to them from a friend) to get her car's front-end aligned. We dropped the car with the owner, Doug Lindberg, who is as personable guy as you'd ever want to meet. Doug called me after a few hours to have me come back over and look at the car because he felt additional work was definitely required. We got under the vehicle together, and I concurred with the issues he and his technician identified. Doug kept the vehicle overnight so his technician could make the necessary repairs, and I can't tell you how happy I was with the result. My daughter was also overjoyed with how her car drove. I could have taken the vehicle home and done the repairs myself (albeit much, much slower), but I was under a major time crunch given my daughter needed to get to work and home every day in the city. I trusted Doug to get the job done, and it was done quickly, accurately, and at a very reasonable price. I will be recommending Lindberg Automotive to anyone I know who needs a top-shelf, trustworthy shop for automotive repairs. I also told Doug that I'd be back whenever I had a repair I couldn't handle on my own. I love knowing I have a shop I can trust to do the job right if I need them.
