This is my second time coming here within the past 3 months (I'm a nail magnet apparently) and both times were walk ins. They have me in and out within 30 minutes. Love that I never feel like they're trying to upsell or rip me off. Honest and hard workers. read more

Power Tires - COVID-safe practices - Tires Near Me - Vista, California

I've been coming here for several years. The owner is very knowledgeable, she always explain in detail what I need and is honest (as a female buyer I appreciate this) I highly recommend this tire shop read more

I won't go here anymore. They tried to rip me off! Came in for an alignment, it took an hour and half for them to get to me. Then they only adjusted my toe and left the camber as is. The lady who runs the place said it was done and asked for payment. But was hiding the alignment results. I asked to see them and questioned them because they were mostly in the red (out of spec) So glad I caught this. She then said to come back. Yeah never again!! I didn't pay and walked away. They have competitive prices. But please watch and know your stuff. read more

This place is perfect for me. Ever since I've been coming, they have been good to me, they're professional, and tell me what I need to do. When I can do it I do it. Between fixing a hole in the tire when possible, or changing, a tire, or lining the tires, it's the place where I go. read more

The lady that runs this place is a complete b**ch. I took my car for an alignment and an arm replacement and she said it needed this and the other charged me above $1,400 I cant remember the exact price but was expensive asf. I haven't even said "yes" to the price and they were about to work on my car. Then I said no and she was mad and told her people to get ready my car for me to take it. I felt bad for the men cuz the were working so hard so I try to leave them a $40 tip to the guys but I didn't see them again, so I went to the lady and told her "can you please give this to the guys that were putting my car together?" She took it and said "it's for me you wasted my time and this is the minimum you can do" and she walked away really fast and I saw it putting the money on her back pocket. I then took my car to Toyota and they charged me 923.84 Base on the reviews it's obvious the obvious and I wouldn't recommend this place to NOBODY. This Experience was around 3 months ago read more

If I could give this place 1 star I would. I took my sons car to get an alignment and change his bald tire out. The car was shaking the minute we drove off and the tire popped 2 weeks later. When we tried to take it back to get the shaking fixed they wouldn't look at it until we had the receipt. Terrible customer arrive and not sure they even did anything to the car read more

I recently got an alignment done on my BMW and was very impressed with the amazing service. They are quick yet thorough, and the price was reasonable compared to other places. I definitely recommend!!! read more

I went to this place on a referral from a tire place in escondido. So I take the drive because I USED to be soooo trusting. I take the 20 minute drive assuming ( ya know what they say about the word assume ) that these folks would be legit. Bad idea Tony. I get there in my pride and joy, a 95' Chevy Silverado that I'm trying to return to it's original condition. It pulled to the right so I figured this was the cure. The guy working there looks at my truck and says a truck the size of mine would be $100. Ok. Let's do it. I wandered around the complex while they put it on a rack and preformed the alignment. Now here's where they earned their one star. I'd give them less but I'm here to warn people before they let folks toss money at them. The ball joints on my truck are shot. Because of back issues I can't look under the chassis myself. Now..if you're under my truck making adjustments...how can you NOT notice a sagging ball joint on one side and a worn one on the other side. An alignment is going to last long enough to leave their property. I take it to another alignment shop THE NEXT DAY and it's all out of alignment again. I was allowed to walk into the bay and yuuuuuup sagging lower ball joints. So one of two things happened. A- they just put it on the rack and watched TV and did nothing or B- used zip ties to keep it adjusted til I left. B probably didn't happen so that leaves me with A. They did provide me with a very colorful print out though. And it only cost me $100. Don't go there. Unless you have money to toss away. I'm a disabled senior and people like this sicken me. I replaced the ball joints then had it realigned AGAIN. Sorry guys ..you failed and I filed a formal complaint with the Better Business Office. Questions , comments. I'll be glad to exchange emails with you. tvalenzuelahaha@yahoo.com. read more

Dont even bother comming here. I came for an alignment they told me it would be an 1hr wait because 2 cars were in front of me i was ok with that. I ended up leaving the car for 2 hours and 2 more cars went in front of mine and mine was never done right at last. Still didnt drive better read more

WORST PLACE EVER!, an $800 Lowering Kit install turn into a $1300+ cost, we agreed to a price, then he calls, I see that you have extra parts, that's more...I showed him all the boxes I had, I said fine, they said I well be ready next day afternoon, guess not a chance!, I received a call said hey one hub assembly failed, How the F@!# with that failed, most likely a bad installation. this guys wants to squeeze you every dollar he can! BE CARE!... Been 3 Days still haven't got my truck back....DO NOT GO HERE!.. read more

Super honest place! As a woman, I know that I am viewed by many auto repair businesses as "easy money". I took my vehicle in for two tires and noticed they do alignments as well, so I asked how much it would cost. He quoted me a good price (I think it was $60), but he actually asked WHY I wanted an alignment. I told him it's a 7 year old car and it has never been done. He said he'd check it out, and then took the time to show me why my car did NOT need an alignment. He could've easily taken advantage of me, but was very honest! Highly recommend this place! read more

These guys are pretty great. I have an old '91 Isuzu Trooper that was riding on Mexican May-Pop tires. My tread has been thin for far too long, and last week some of the tread began to show on one of them. It was way past time to replace them. I'm also not a member of the 1% by any stretch of the imagination. While my financial situation is slowly improving, getting four WONDERFUL "new" (used) tires on the Trooper, mounted, balanced and installed for only $180... simply ROCKS! I happened to call on a slow day. They had me in and out in less than 45 minutes. read more

Not even 2 weeks after getting alignment at this shop I noticed my car was drifting to the left and the steering wheel didn't appear to be straight while driving anymore. I took my vehicle back and even though they agreed it needed a only a 1 degree adjustment on the rear passenger wheel, they would only charge me to fix it for $40. I only drove out of my way back to these guys because when I called they said if it is a minor adjustment that they would fix it for free. Well I drove all the way back up to them and they insist that I drove off a curb or went through a nasty pothole which makes them not liable to their work done on the previous alignment. The mechanics were cool about everything so that's why I am not giving them a one star, but it was the bitchy female owner who only spoke in Spanish to them saying they can't charge me any less than $40 to fix it. I just don't get it since I paid $50 to align all 4 tires. How does only one tire cost $40???? The owner lady had such an ugly attitude I couldn't stand on my previous 4 star any longer. read more

GREAT, FAST and FRIENDLY SERVICE! Just needed a patch on my back tire. Was in and out in a few minutes. I would recommend Power Tires to a friend and will go back. read more

Been coming to Power Tires for years. Recently I had toyota Carlsbad try to align my truck twice and they did it wrong. Fed up I drove to Power and 20 min later, I'm driving straight as an arrow. Best place period. read more

Wow. As soon as I pulled up I got greeted and escorted to the lobby. They have great customer service and prices, thanks Patricia for the great deal. read more

This location and company is a complete joke. I was a return customer of their San Marcos location for many years. I'd purchased maybe 6-7 sets of $1000+ tires from them. Francisco was awesome... then they shut it down and kept only the Vista location. The little guy that works here is OK, defiantly no Francisco, but the woman that has been taking his place while he is out sick is a complete joke. Zero customer service skills and zero will to help a customer out there has returned with an issue. Spent a ton of money on new tires and alignment to only be questioned on if I really did purchase them there. Not willing to help, very unfriendly, and borderline rude. Will be complaining to the BBB. Save your money and go elsewhere, they make up for their low prices with shotty work and bad attitudes. Will absolutely not help you if you return with an issue. Once they have your money you're on your own. read more

Best tire place in town, the employee their really kept his word with the price ... which shows that they care about their costumers and their wallets , when i called and asked for a quote and he even threw a free alignment cant get better than that. Thank you power tires now i can drive in peace read more

The service was excellent! My husband and I noticed our tire indicator was on. We aren't from the area having visits LegoLand the day before. We didn't want to take a chance and drive home on a low tire. So, we checked Yelp and found Power Tire. The technician found the problem, a nail, and patched it up for us. We didn't even need to get our 7-month-old and 4-year-old out of the truck which was a big help. They charged a pittance which was nice. We would have paid more for the peace of mind. read more

called the day before to see if they took appointments and the lady said yes so i scheduled one for 3 the next day. day of the appointment i show up 5 min early and a little kid comes into the office and says they will start once they are done with the truck. i said ok and proceeded to wait. someone guy comes up to me and asks if i had an appointment i say yes then ask him if he knows how long it will be till they can start on my car. he says he will go ask and come back. well i'm waiting another 30 minutes for an answer and can see everyone eating in the back. i understand we all get hungry and need a break but its already 4 and my "appointment" was supposed to be at 3. don't think it takes much energy to come tell me how long it will be then you can go back to eating. just left after an hour of no one talking to me. read more

BEST USED TIRE I EVER GOT! I came in and got hooked up with a 2015/90%tread used tire for less than half price! In addition they prepped my old rim free of charge so that it could have the tire installed. These guys know what they are doing and the service was EXCELLENT. Call this store first! I left a happy customer. read more

Oh if only Yelp would allow me to give 0 stars. So here's how my experience with Power Tires went. I called into the San Marcos branch to get the bolts on my tires removed and replaced with new ones that I had bought in advance. After telling me they were unable to break the bolts, I had to drive to their vista location to get the job finished. Being an English speaker but understanding a basic amount of Spanish, I was able to tell that the mechanics had found the key for my tire bolts, meaning I did not need to break the locks. However they thought I was unable to understand them, thus attempting to force me to allow them to break the locks; completely unnecessary!! After telling them I could understand everything they were saying, they clearly felt highly embarrassed before I told them I wanted nothing further to do with their business. Be very careful if you ever use this business. Take a Spanish speaker with you or prepare to pay above and beyond. read more

I have a Toyota Rav4 which had excessive and uneven wear on the front tires. Alex at Power Tires set me up with new very clean and shiny "used" tires as well as a front end alignment. The price ended up being $170, out the door. I was pleased with the value and the service. No complaints whatsoever. read more

Good place to get used tires. Tires are reasonably priced and they are fast usually getting me in and out within a half hour. I can only recommend them for used tires. So if you need used tires call or visit them. read more

I've gotten tires here and my brakes done as well. Each time has been such a positive experience. They are very honest about what your car needs - no upselling, no taking advantage of you whatsoever. I always recommend this place to friends or family; I highly recommend anyone go here. The prices are very reasonable and affordable, and they explain everything. Service has always been pretty quick as well read more

I've been a loyal customer since I got my first car in 2009. The employees are awesome! The service is awesome! They offer high quality used tires at a great price! I am currently getting 4 used tires with alignment and everything for only $260 including tax. I highly recommend this place! read more

Good stuff would come again and again. Great customer service good price and they get the job done they always deliver

I've had to bring my Jeep Cherokee in for several repairs all stemming from one accident. Each visit they were professional and accommodating to my time frame and need to have the work done over several visits. Eduardo handled my vehicle all the way through and even spent time showing me exactly what needed to be done and answering all my questions. The car runs as good as new and the price was 1/2 the price of some of the other local repair shops. The best part is I actually met the owners Patricia and her husband. It was apperant to me this family owned business takes pride in their quality of work at great prices and i would highly recommend them to any of my family or friends. read more

I will come back here for great service. They are fast, efficient and helpful. I bought some great Hankook tires for my 2014 Taurus and 6 months later I got a screw in one I took my car back to them and they repaired the tire and rotated my tires for free. read more

Went in for an alignment my alignment was really off because just had a lift and new off-road tires and they went above and beyond to help get my truck straight. Thanks guys! read more

I was worried about the damage to my car after hitting a curb during my vacation. I had gone to Goodyear for a quote and they said the damage was $1000, plus the cost of tires! I went to see Jack at Power Tires and he was honest with me and to the point. I got a full inspection on my Kia Forte, two brand new tires, and an alignment for $250. I was extremely grateful and highly recommend this company. I believe it's always better to work with honest, local companies, rather than big business who just wants to scam you. read more

these guys got my car in and out for an alignment quick without a appointment friendly staff and great prices my car is lowered and they got it pretty close to spec the mechanics are very knowledgeable they also do brakes and tires some good deals here I will definitely return... read more

Power Tires - Tires Near Me - Vista, California

My mechanic at Kar Kare Clinic (Sam) told me it was time for some new tires and a front end alignment. I asked for a recommendation. He pointed right across the way to Power Tires. They offer new and used tires. I went right over and bought new tires and had my front end aligned. Now not to knock the big retailers but they will always recommend to replace all four tires and they do not do front end alignments. Hmmmmm bad front end alignments will lead you to a set of new tires pretty quick. So I opted to get new tires from Power Tires. While it is not a big fancy tire shop with lots of displays and fresh or not so fresh coffee from a Mr. Coffee, it is family owned. I got a great deal AND contributed to a local family owned business. And that beats a cold cup of coffee in my book. At the end of the day I got great tires at a great price and contributed to the local economy. Please check them out. My trustworthy mechanic trusts them and so do I. read more

Power Tires has some of the absolute best customer service! All of the technicians are very friendly, easy to talk to. Prices on tires are very reasonable. If you need tires, check them out! read more

I just got back from the San Marcos location and am really happy! Needed two front tires. Priced new ones elsewhere and for a good brand I was looking at over $100 each plus all the charges they ad on for installation, recycle fees, road hazard fees, all that stuff. Lowest price I could find was nearly $300! Instead I went to Power Tires and paid $120 for two like new Firestone tires. Excellent! I will never buy tires from anyone else. Period. read more

ABSOLUTELY WORST customer service I have ever witnessed. Whoever the older man in the office is getting pricing for customers is you need a different job ASAP. I don't understand what type of business allows for the employees to call customers cheap and throwing fits like a 5 year old. Please hire more professional people. I will never step foot in here again and will be letting everyone I know to never do business with this tire place. read more

Came in because my tire kept leaking air. Manager had me pull in right away. Told me if there was a nail or something in the tread they would fix it. They were already working on another car when I got there but fit me in. Fixed the tire with a patch in about 20minutes. The price was very reasonable. The service was very good. I would definitely recommend this place to anybody. read more

I took my car here for a front break service/ and a right front steering knuckle replacement after I picked up my car the very same day I had to take it back to their shop, because my breaks screaked very loud & my car did not have a smooth stop & my break & abs light was on & would not go off. they co- owner of power tires told me this is normal & the lights would go off soon they did not. So I took my car to ford dealer & they inspected my car, they told me that the steering knuckle that power tires replaced is not abs compatible this is the reason for the break & abs light being on. I let power tires know what ford said & I ask for a full refund of my money but of coarse I did not get a response from power tires I contacted automotive bureau repair in Nov. 2014 and the ABR. has found several violations on this business They told ABR. they would agree to refund my money I still have not received a penny! I would not recommend a friend or anyone to this repair shop ever! read more
