I had a flat. I could not find the puncture area, which is usually a nail, so I would repair it myself.
I was on a time crunch to leave the area and took it in to this place because it's open on a Saturday.
Tire repair? 20 something bucks, I said fine. Met the tech. He pointed it out and he could repair it.
Kimberly, the clerk, then claims they cannot repair it tho. I have heard this song and dance before and its a nasty game they play. The puncture was on the tread, not the wall. She claims its at an "angle" and cannot legally be repaired even if on the tread.
I suspected she was lying, but again I was on a time crunch. So I bit the bullet and bought the overpriced tire and told them to put the old one in the back.
I remember driving past a couple mom and pop tire shops. I went straight to one that was thankfully open on a Saturday. They repaired the tire no problem, which would be 30 bucks. But I bartered my overpriced non -matching new one for the repair.
This place is vile, I hate this place. I hate myself knowing they were ripping me off and taking advantage of it because I was on a time crunch. Any other time, I would have cursed them out and left. Taking advantage of someone down on their luck is evil. The place and their management must lack religion.
Do NOT go here. Do not reward this place with business. Go to a mom and pop shop instead. I can understand going here if pressed for time like me and forced to go a chain with more hours, but if not? 100% go elsewhere.
I am really upset with myself for not having the foresight what to say and do when Kimberly straight up lied to me and insulted my intelligence. Playing the "its not legal" card is total BS. Its on the tread!!! Not the wall which is illegal. Claiming its at an angle is BS. Thinking about it. How can any authority know if its at angle or not at the tread. Oh this place is evil. read more
