This happened years ago but I remember this altercation often because of the extent of the situation. I would go to mr.tire exclusively for oil changes because my trusted mechanic was super booked all the time and figured this was a easy job anyone could do. However after getting an oil change I had to bring in my car to my mechanic and he showed me how mr tire stripped my oil pain, placed a unremovable butterfly plug and caulked around it. He said that is unethical and to go there and demand they replace my oil pan or try and fix it. So my boyfriend and I went back to this mr tire and they refused to fix it, they even belittled us saying we don’t know what we’re talking about and if my mechanic is so good why didn’t I just go there. The conversation felt very unprofessional. I asked why I was never notified there was an issue or told a butterfly plug was being placed, and they had no reasonable explanation. They even tried to tell me it’s a one winged butterfly plug so I could still drain oil in the future. I collected all of my previous information and called corporate at this point. After they sent someone to come look at my car they determined it was “my fault” when the last 3-4 times I got my oil changed was with mr.tire I was not taking that as an answer. I had to fight with these people for months who were condescending and knew they were in the wrong. They eventually gave me the money for a new oil pain which I had my mechanic replace and found that they did in fact lie and the butterfly plug was double winged. They even saved it to show me. by far the worst experience I’ve ever had with any company. Atleast own up to youre mistakes!!!
I had a flat tire today and got right in at this Mr. Tire location. I didn’t have to wait to get service. I had two rear tires replaced. Service was completed in under 30 min. Front desk attendant was courteous and helpful. Paid price comparative to anywhere else. Restroom was clean and open. Waiting room was comfortable and cool with a/c. Good experience and would recommend to anyone looking for tire service.
I made an appointment online for an inspection. I was confirmed via email for the appointment for an inspection (I realize the appointment request online must be confirmed, which it was). When I arrived for said appointment I was told the machine was broken and they didn’t know why they confirmed it. So basically I drove here for nothing.
Went to get an oil change they did not top off any of my fluids. No wind shield wiper fluid at all and refuse to add anti freeze. Refused my $15 off coupon claimed to have given me $10 off cost of oil change still came to $40!
Went there to fix a flat tire that had a nail in it and they said that they could not find the nail or any leak. I went home, found the nail in the tire, and could hear the air leaking out.
I went there for an alignment. Kenny and the guy with the VW - I forgot his name. Was something like Enos. They were awesome. The guy who was there when I picked it up the next day, (forgot his name too) equally as awesome. Will definitely be back. Car is running straight and true 👍
Ask for a specific tire have all 4 in store we will be seeing them this week
Customer service is over-the-top the guy you have in the front is an amazing person he did everything in his power to get the part i needed, but the auto parts store took way to long to bring the part, to the guy in the front desk thank you for your humor, you kept me from flipping my lid.You have a life time customer
I follow Kenny wherever he goes. By far one of the best overall mechanics in Rochester, NY. Honest, efficient, & genuine oh and reasonably priced.
Service was fast and personnel were friendly. Price for work done was very fair. I was very satisfied and will go back again as I have before. Thanks.
I went to have my car checked over,Reshard greeted with a warm smile, mask on.He asked what my issues were and I said I heard a noise from my right front wheel.without hesitation he did paper work and put my car on lift.He followed CDC guidelines. To my amazement it. was a lose center hub cap on my alloy wheel.HE WAS HONEST, he could have charged any amount, but rather he said Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and sent me happily on my way. Reshard is honest and caring.Thank You for having a great person who cares.
Good so far.. Ended well. Got my car in and out.
Took my car in for an oil change and asked them to check everything and was told my car was fine. When I left my car was having problems it never had before. Called and was told to bring it back, which I did. I ended up having to get it towed there. When I got there, I was told it was my serpentine belt and they fixed it that issue and told me everything was fine. My car is still having lots of problems I wasn’t having prior to taking it there. Well today I called and was told by assistant manager Steve “I’m not looking at it, there’s nothing I can do about it because I’m done putting out fires for Kenny, hahaha he have to start solving his own problems he caused. I’m not doing it so you have to wait for Kenny”. Worst customer service EVER! It was as if he has a personal vendetta against Kenny and took it out on the customer (me).
If I could give 10 stars to this place I for sure would! Five stars isnt even enough for this Mr. Tire location. All the guys in here are TOTALLY AWESOME TOP NOTCH! Chris, Jim, and even the guy that does the welding for them when hes there. Their all great and professional over at this Mr. Tire. They all know their stuff about all kinds of vehicles and not out for just your money. Very honest people here. I will not go to any other Mr. Tire except this one. Thanks guys for all you do to our vehicles and great service.
Well done, Jim Bernard and crew. Had two tires mounted and balanced in under 30 minutes. Jim explained everything and gave me suggestions for needed future service. I plan on making this auto shop the ONLY shop I use going forward. Thanks Again!!!
Nice ppl.
James and the rest of the guys at this location were so helpful and knowledgeable about my issue. It was a very simple mistake made by another shop. They handled it quickly and professionally and did not charge me. I definitely recommend!
Got 4 tires mount and balance in and out quick
Made appointment on line. Service provided on time and fast, no problems. Used the Mr Tire Card plus online coupons results in a great price. Recently remodeled Irondequoit store, looks great and is very clean. One thing I did notice, there were more coupons when I searched online with my cell phone.
Chris deserve a raise!!! He made my night by doing an inspection on my car right before they close. Thank you again for your great customer service!!
Always greeted with a good morning And thank you.The service at this facility is top notch. I appreciate them and I will never go to another Mr. tire. Laurie Cannito
This I would never go again..I call to make an appt..only when I get there they said I never one..Because one of the employees never pen me in..Needed my car fix asap..only to tell in another wk they can see me.. No professionalism..never again..
Fleet car with a flat tire is a pain however Jeff was great and stuck to what he told me over the phone in addition to noticing that my inspection was up and even got that done to. Everything was done fast and right!!The place was spotless and looked like it was newly redone. I setup my laptop and worked right from there while my car was done.Thanks Jeff A++
This is the only mechanic I trust with my car in Rochester! The staff is very honest, quick, friendly, and knowledgeable. I don’t know a lot about cars, but I don’t feel like I’m being taken advantage of or being ripped off. I always have a great experience with the managers Jimmy and Chris, super down-to-earth and reliable guys. I would highly recommend!
Had a nail in my tire and went to Mr tire Jim was very nice and helpful I didnt have to wait long for service I eowou definitely be going back to Mr tire for more service!!
Great service!! When in last minute at noon and they were able to get me out before 4:30! I did ask for an oil change and inspection.
I paid over $700 to get new front shocks and struts for my car in march. Now in July the right side shock and strut is completely broken. Theres no way it should be broken after 4 months. And when I called to see if they would fix it for free I was told because they didnt purchase the part he is not responsible and would have to see the car first. Although I was told by staff to purchase the part because they couldnt get the part in. Seems odd that after I left the shop from getting it fixed my car started making a sound on the right side. I called and took it right back and they told me it was another part making the sound. I definitely wont be going back.
Ive had nothing but great experiences at Mr. Tire in Irondequoit! Its nice having a local repair shop where you can trust that youre getting a fair deal, and that your car is being fixed properly. Highly recommend Jim and his staff!
Jim and Vince are phenomenal! They always take very good care of me.Mr. Tire in Irondequoit will always have my business.Keep up the great work guys and thanks for all you do!
Decent shop. Good service and honest. Keep up the good work. 👍
I had very alternator replaced for a reasonable price. Very friendly staff. They dont push services that arent needed. From this visit it seems that they pride themselves on good customer service and repeat clients vs. Getting every dollar they can.
Love this place! Always helpful, never try to tell me I need more repairs than necessary. But I know my van is in great hands! Definitely recommend!
Chris Engle was amazing! He explained why I was hearing a clanking sound and what it needed to fix it. His maintenance service was great and even though he was busy he took time to explain everything without making me feel like I was being rushed. It was quicker than I expected all in all. I was also very impressed with the cleaniness of their restroom, I have been to auto shops where looking at the bathroom alone made you want to run out the door as fast as you can. I would highly recommend Mr. Tire to anyone!
Under the new management I wash pushed out with an on the job injury and the new district manager was even nice enough to bring my tools home for me, I dont suggest anyone that knows me goes to this company Mr tire / Monroe incfor any more work or service as they dont know how to treat their employees with any respect I wouldnt expect you as a customer paying good money to get anything better! Respectfully yours a former manager or at least thats the way it feels no one in the corporate office can tell me whether I have a job or not. Good luck to all and best wishes.
Installed the tires on my car incorrectly. Would have led to a tire blow out had I not noticed/heard the tire rubbing on the strut. Struggling to get the company to refund the cost of the damaged tire. Go elsewhere if possible.
Great place to buy tires
This was my first and last time coming to this location. I usually get my car serviced at the Dewey Ave location which I love. Days prior I made an appointment for 4 pm and my car did not make it back until after 5 pm. The only thing I was getting done was an oil change which I have never had to be anywhere for more than 30 minutes to get done. They didnt finish with my car until 5:40 pm! Whoever had to wait 1 hour and 40 minutes for an oil change?!?! And the waiting area was cold to top it all off.
Wonderful staff. Best repair shop experiences I’ve ever had. I love the job they do.
In my 49 years of life so far on this Earth I have never been so blessed to have gone to an auto service shop as this one Chris and his crew there were truly a Godsend they were professional and polite beyond all means very caring and courteous extremely reasonable price for service they will forever have my patronage and business to have this and your vehicle in good hands this is certainly the place to go Thank you dearly Chris and fellow mechanics
Great service! My girlfriend was out of town on business and all of the sudden her car was making a weird noise. She brought it to a few shops but they could not figure it out. When She came back from her trip I brought it to Kost on east ridge rd. The mechanic Bradley figured out the problem in just a few minutes and was very nice to us. Its hard to find a shop with a knowledgeable mechanic like him.THANK YOU!
My most recent visit I needed tires for my travel trailer in a hurry, like same day hurry. The manager/service writer was able to get tires I needed same day. I brought him the the old tires on the rims in sets of two and I was able to feel safe taking my trailer and my family two states away and not worrying about a tire failure.
I have used them multiple times and they have always helped me find the least expensive option even if it means ordering a part through someone else!
Have always had a great experience here. The employees are nice and personable and my services are always completed in a timely fashion. My car likes these guys.
Got me in for services promptly and completed work in a proper and timely
Ive been coming to this shop so many times, that they recognize my car (its a 2002, after all...). Every time, Jim, Chris and co. have been awesome--friendly, professional, helpful. Thanks, guys!
Warm welcome. Very honest and professional. Manager was sweet. I would definitely recommend there.
They were happy to help me pick out the tires I needed and got my new brakes installed really quickly. Thanks for all your help!
Just got off the phone with the rudest person Ive ever dealt with in customer service. Just tried to get an oil change. Mother just had a stroke out of town(also explained), so I didnt want to jump on the road needing one. Was told the guy that does oil changes was just finishing up and wasnt taking anymore jobs. But youre posted on the net as being open til 7pm I replied. My tech had been busy today, and Im not going to work him to death. Mr. Tire, 1480 E.Ridge Rd. Rochester, N.Y.Great way to treat a long standing customer. Currently at another location getting good service so far.
I went to Mr. Tire for a suspension problem and,they found the problem. It was corrosion of my rear crossmember bar. But Jim noticed that part was on recall, which saved me a lot of money and worry. I just want to thank Jim and Mr. Tire for the honest help!!
Respectable shop unlike any other I been in in years,true service with a smile. Educated staff and on sold me what I needed.
The first time I went to them, I stood at the counter waiting 10 minutes for someone to address me (everyone was in the garage). Nobody came. The second time I went to them, I asked for a tire change and a rotation and the tires (which are attached to old and scuffed up hubcaps) were in the same exact position. Im certain they were never rotated. I also, during that same visit, heard the very loud man who waited on customers address people over the phone quite rudely. Im not sure whats happening here, but it isnt good from start to finish.
Never disappointed by the customer service and personal attention I always get here. Jim and his staff are top notch!
James and his staff are always so accommodating and friendly . Been coming here for years they always give me the proper diagnosis for my truck and are thorough in getting it done !!
Jim Barnard and the whole crew in Irondequoit are amazing. They do a great job and I highly recommend them.
Best repair shop i have been in several years. Great service always. Can trust then.
Tried to upsell me by $800 on a tire/brake job after two phone calls to verify the cost. Charged me $160 labor on changing brake pads (est. range is $92-$118 on repairpal). Charged me $200 for brake pads that cost $95 at Advance (for the same part number invoiced). Did not add the road hazard protection I requested on the phone. Went back to discuss the matter after I ran over a nail and their tech dropped my alloy rim on its face, scratching it. I decided to cut my losses at this point and will not be going back.
Great customer service. Went fot an oil change and was in and out in no time. Friendly and convenient.
We had an appointment for wheel alignment and the guys performed filter & oil change by mistake. Even though it was on the computer that we wanted just alignment. They put the wrong oil in our car, they were quick to correct their mistake and refund us for $20However I dont recommend the place after what happened. The oil was never replaced for the right one, I pray the car doesnt give us problems.
Im always skeptical about shops but I cant complain. I saw how they worked with other customers and myself. They took their time but still in a timely manner and showed myself what was wrong and what they would do to solve the problem. Very pleased.
We had a great experience at the E. Ridge Rd Mr Tire. We had and inspection done, they were so fast and really, really nice! Will definitely go back!
No good waited for some to notice me in line.iwalked out and they saw me standing there they kept fooling around isaid Im leaving was told have a nice day lossmy buiness
Just bought a used van, those guys have me a through inspection at a fair price
5 stars. Great all-around service, speed, quality work and prices.
I dropped my truck off for oil change and tire rotation. When i picked it up I asked if the tires had been rotated and they said yes. Well, they must think I am a complete idiot because with the snow and salt on the roads, my rims are dirty. There is not one mark or scuff on the rim from them rotating my tires. They completely lied. I called back and the store manager said that I can bring it back and theyll rotate them. What a complete waste of my f****** time. Now i am wondering if my oil got changed. DO NOT GO TO THESE HACKS. They lie right to your face......
I called Jim after hours with a flat tire. Jim came to where I was, faster than my roadside assistants, put my donut on and took me to the shop after it was closed to get me a new tire. This was amazing service as I am a Lyft and uber driver this could of effected my livelihood. I am truly grateful. Best service in Rochester, Ny.
As the manager of this location my team and I pride ourselves on the quality of our work and how we treat each client with dignity and respect. We dont hang parts we fix cars. Visit us with you vehicle and then like us on Google and face book.
Ive found my new mechanic! They were fast, reliable, and fair. I appreciate them and will be back.
Awesome service! Staff is friendly and knowledgeable, would definitely take any vehicle there!
Jim saved me a boatload of money with the tire pressure monitoring valve system. Thanks guys!
Great friendly service, at a reasonable price. And, they were open on a holiday!
Great service!
They do their best to fit you in, cuz theyre always busy! They do very good work!!
Great service, friendly staff, always do a wonderful job on my car.
I continue to be a loyal customer because of Jim’s fine management of the Irondequoit location. I refer many family members and friends there.
Tires very used for 30 no good price but yes good service
Very kind helpful and honest people definitely recommend anyone with car problems
I liked it the guys are really nice and they are not trying to cheat you.
Great service will be back thanx guys
Absolutely amazing staff ! True professionals and very accomodating to my needs ! Thank you for your service!
Very rude and unprofessional at the front counter. Talk any kind of way to you as if your not worthy of his time. Need a serious change. Kost tire was WAY better at customer service. Youve just lost long standing business from me at any and ALL locations. Shouldnt have a racist working for you!
Knowledgeable, Friendly and Honest staff. I would recommend to family and friends.
Have brought car previously and happy with work done. This morning though called to make appt.for alignment and Jim answered phone, very rude. Called 800# twice to complain and no one answers. Lost my business!! UPDATE...This is in response to your response. So you want me to call and speak to the store manager about the negative treatment i endured while trying to make an appointment ? If you would re-read the post the persons name was Jim who was rude, and JIM IS THE MANAGER, Doubt im going to get very far talking to him..You people make no-sense!!
It was quick and the waiting areas really nice.
Very helpful when it comes to fixing your car.
Very friendly staff, fast, excellent service, Jim was exceptional. Highly recommend Mr.Tire.
Good service, good prices, friendly atmosphere.
Did a great job, with no bull.
I was charged 80 in 2018 for front pads, when I came in on 3/5/19 I was told by the manager that my rear pads would be 179 if I needed rotors it would cost me 350. that is high way robbery, how could that be, I will never bring any of my cars there every again and I wouldnt recommend any of my friends there. I have been coming there for years, but Im done with Mr.Tire, I will take my service else where from now on,
Was not there
Chris was very helpful and saved me money.
Only complaint was they didnt call me, I had to call them to see if my vehicle was ready. Other than that all staff were friendly & efficient.
Didnt have what I needed
Great service, friendly staff, reasonable prices!
The manager was not very nice. It was out of the normal. I was surprised at how he treated me. As if my business wasnt needed. And I just wanted a oil change. Wow.
Very happy with this place and the quick service, will be going again.
Good service and very pleasant and accommodating personnel and manager.
The shop manager James is the best around, very knowledgeable and isn’t interested in trying to over charge you in needless extra services.
Always honest with me and willing to help figure out what the problem is.
Great shop with great service
Very rude, Im never wasting my time with them, they did not help me out at all, Id rather go to firestone, the guy at mr. tire yelled at me for asking a question and was extremely rude with me
