My cayman brought in for a brake fluid flush (2/4)

Been coming here for a bit over a year now, bringing in my 2016 Cayman and 2023 CT4, doing a myriad of work from oil changes to drive belt replacements. Service is always quick and cost efficient my favorite tech is Adam who always has a smile and does a great job during the complimentary inspections leaving me feeling confident every time I pick up my vehicles. I've also recommended this place to my closest friend and they're always satisfied with the work Adam does.

"Secured"

Two things as I start this review.  1. Read this review before going to Tire Choice.  2. Check my Yelp profile. I give almost exclusively 5-star reviews (and use Yelp mostly to give praise). But. This situation was insane.  I have a tire which had a slow leak. I knew this because I was following the PSI during each drive (which is displayed on the dash) and was re-filling the tire every few days until I could take the car in.  I brought the car into Tire Choice where a manager, Tate, asked what the issue was. He said he could put me in the computer, which would take longer, or I could "just give one of his guys 5 or 10 bucks to patch the tire, which would help them out". Most big tire shops do free patches, so I wasn't worried about the cost. But, if it helps his guys out, whatever. It's an expensive time to be alive.  I go back a couple hours later to pick it up and give a worker named Jay $20. Jay tells me "Hey, whoever put on your tires last broke the tire pressure sensor. Rather than charge you $100 for another one, I re-secured it, and it still works". I thought "whatever, if you secured it, and it still works, who cares?" My wife drove that car home. When we got back, I asked her what the PSI on the patched tire was. She said it wasn't showing a number (which, it 100% was when we dropped the car off, as I even wrote the PSI down before I left).  I call Tate, and he seems very perplexed. He tells me "it's your word vs my employee's word" and asks me rhetorical questions like "What would you do if this were YOUR business?" I asked if this is why he didn't want to put a record of my service into their computer, and he said no, he didn't put it in because he was trying to help ME out. Which... didn't make sense. Tate says he will talk to his worker and call me back.  He calls me back and says "So, I laid into the guy" (his words) "and he admitted that he lied. He did break it." So- at this point in the story, be assured, that a worker at Tire Choice broke something on my car, lied to me about it, tried to convince me he did me a favor by "securing it instead of charging me" and then allowed us to drive the car away.  Tate says he will order the TPMS (the sensor) and I can bring it back in to get fixed (by a different worker). This shop legit JUST broke stuff on my car, lied about it, admitted to lying about it, then asks me to bring the car back in for a BIGGER job? Nah man. I told Tate I'd like to get it fixed somewhere else and bring him the invoice. He said I'd have to go through corporate for that. No problem.  Anyways, the next day I brought the car Discount Tire nearby. They fixed it quickly/cheaply. And, before I left, they said "Hey, want a souvenir? This is how your TPMS was attached to your tire." See attached picture. No wonder the thing wasn't working, Tire Choice "secure it" by sticking it onto my tire with numerous pieces of electrical tape.  Don't go here. Seriously. Don't go here. I've never experienced anything like this via any repair at any shop. These guys will break your stuff, lie to you, admit to the lie, then think offering to fix what they broke (and lied about breaking) is an appropriate resolution. I'm out $20 at Tire Choice (and $80 more at Discount Tire)- so I'm passing this $100 lesson onto you. Edit/Update to comment from Monro/HQ: I did call and explain what happened via your corporate line. I was told I'd get a call back if anyone wanted to talk to me. I didn't hear from anyone. 2nd Edit for yelpers: corporate never returned the call or made any effort to address this.

This is a solid auto repair business. They take care of everything, they're very nice and very courteous, they'll treat you right and very reliable. I get all my service here and Jane had no problems.

This is what was in my tire.

See all

I took my 2017 Honda Fit to Valley Auto Repair because I thought it needed a tune up. Alex took out…read moreand examined the spark plugs, saw they were fine, put them back, drove the car both locally and on the highway, and reported back to me that the car is simply not as young as it used to be, that it didn't need a tune up, and that while the car will last a long time running fine, replacing this or that will not make it young again. He spent time and effort, saved me from paying for things I didn't need, AND DIDN'T CHARGE ME ANYTHING. Thank you Alex!

After years of looking for a mechanic and only taking my Subaru to the dealership for all repairs…read moreor maintenance over the life of the car (8 years), I decided to take a chance here. I had a great experience with Alex at Value Auto Repair. I originally reached out through Yelp, and he was responsive and answered all of my questions. His pricing was significantly better than what the dealership quoted me, but what really stood out wasn't just the price--it was his honesty. I came in with a humming noise that I believed was a bad wheel bearing but was unsure. Alex was upfront from the beginning after making the same diagnosis and even encouraged me to get quotes from other mechanics if it made me feel more comfortable so I could make sure I was getting a fair deal. That kind of confidence and transparency is hard to find. When I arrived, he was able to get my car in within about 30 minutes to diagnose it. While the part was being delivered, I went to lunch, and once I came back, he had the wheel bearing replaced in about 45 minutes. Before I left, he took the time to show me both the old and new wheel bearings, explaining how they worked and letting me hear and feel the difference. I really appreciated him taking the time to educate me instead of just handing me a bill. One thing I noticed while I was waiting was how many customers came in who clearly knew Alex. Everyone seemed genuinely happy to see him, several appeared to be repeat customers, and there was an obvious level of trust between them. After my own experience, I completely understand why. Alex also has a great sense of humor, which made the whole experience much less stressful. Most importantly, the humming noise is completely gone, and my car drives perfectly again. If you're looking for an honest, knowledgeable mechanic who charges fair prices and genuinely cares about his customers, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Alex and Value Auto Repair. I know I'll definitely be back.

And also their prices were a lot cheaper than others. I'm the kind of person who takes service seriously so I made sure to do my research around 5-7 of them and even their reviews. Although location they were the furthest out of mine, El Cajon , I went for it for their dedication, rates and even they check on me again days after while I was waiting to make a final decision. When I showed up to the place I got a bit nervous cause their spot seemed like a flee market of a group of mechanics all together and their own expertise areas, but also kinda amazing you can find all of there at the same spot. But they were really nice, honest and direct with what they could do and quick too. The lady in charge of the appointment and admon was amazing., explained the procedures, the tinning and I felt secure and that I could trust these hard working-honest people. Usually I wouldn't even write down a review but thought I'd make it easier for the next person would is in the same spot I was before making my mind. And also credit to those to deserve. It.
