Overland Tire Center

Most auto shops swindle you any way they can but not these guys! honest and very straight forward.

Moses never seems to disappoint.
It started six months or so ago. We got an oil change for my fiancé’s car, and he mentioned: hey, your tires are worn down and your breaks could probably be replaced. But yeah, your oil is done. At the time we (moronically) just got our oil changed. We went to costco to get the tires changed, and just went on with our lives. Didn’t forget anything, did we?
Then for the past month, the car was making all sorts of crazy noises. Noises backing up, noises accelerating, noises breaking, noises turning. I had no idea what was going on. The world was ending. He could have told me anything was wrong with it (because I’m a moron), but I just drove up and he said, «sounds like something is wrong with your breaks.» Turns out he was completely right. He replaced them, gave us a discount, and I paid a few hundred less than I anticipated.
Pro’s:
— Very kind customer service, Moses is the best
— quick! Never had to wait more than a few hours
— Close to my apartment (yes, that’s a pro)
— never feels like I’m being taken advantage of, he always double checks before working on the car, upfront about cars
— Cheaper than most places as well
Con’s:
— He’s busy. Call ahead if you can, try to show up early
— Sometimes he is late to work. Last time I had to wait 30 min for him to open
— parking is pretty tough nearby, so it’s hard to get someone over there to pick you up if he’s late.

I first found Moses at OTC through my stint as an Über Driver. He immediately offerend me an Über Discount and I started going to him for every oil change. A few Über riders had mentioned a sound and Moses checked out my car twice, couldn’t find anything twice, and decided not to charge me for anything. He is honest and fair and great at his job. When he does fix something, he not only makes sure that you understand the repairs and the costs involved, but he also comes in under (Way under!) the costs anyone else anywhere can provide. Just try him out for an estimate, then compare that estimate to Consumer Reports Auto Repair Tool or something similar and OTC comes in under the lowest estimate for EVERYTHING, with attentive service and my car always leaves running, sounding, and riding smoother and better than ever. He even went through a list with me of item that NEED IMMEDIATE REPLACEMENT according to the garage at my dealer, and he was honest with me about what I need to drive the car versus what my dealer wants me to get. Moses and the crew at OTC are the most honest, best priced, and plain old best car mechanics right in the heart of Palms neighborhood!

Had a little hole in my tire. Was in and out in less than 10 minutes for only 25 bucks. Very nice and professional.

First started coming here years ago with a car that had a lot of issues simply because it was located close to my house. I have been so impressed with the level of service and the honest price that I won’t go anywhere else. They are able to have your car fixed the same day, within a couple hours from what I’ve noticed. I bent a rim and was told by my dealership that it would be outrageous and wouldn’t be ready for days. I came here and they did a great quality job, same day, for astoundingly less. I came today because my tire gage sensor wouldn’t turn off, I thought maybe I knocked a sensor loose or something, and they fixed it with no charge. That’s honesty right there. Thank you!
Moses is always extremely helpful and professional.

I’m giving a bad review even when I didn’t even get a service because every time I went they were very busy, then one day I called and they said «we’re busy but come tomorrow» I went and guess what? Busy again! And the only guy standing there was kinda rude, I guess I won’t get anything done there ever (even if I wanted to)

Close to home, quick & easy (I left it for an hour and came back) $ 26.50 total for oil change. Great deal and convenient!

I came here to replace my tires. It was great and quick customer service. Very cool about the condition of my car and letting me know what needs to get fixed.

I have fixed my car at OTC for at least four years, and Moses is the man! He is a very knowledgeable and honest mechanic who always gives me good deals and never recommends services or repairs the car does not need. All the repairs I have ever done at this place resolved the issues the car had once and for all. I highly recommend this place.

It is very rare and extremely valuable when you find a mechanic (and their team) who you can truly trust AND are fair and honest and highly reliable. At Overland Tire Ctr, I feel so lucky to be able to say that I truly do have utter faith and trust in such reliable and hard-​working mechanics for well over five years. Go see Moses, he’ll take care of you and your car.

I came here by to fix my car brake of the back sides. I didnt see the reviews of them, i just drove by. They explained to me about the situation understandable. they fixed it and but they told me if the brake signal doesnt go off in few days come back here. And i went back there and they changed sensor again and it went off. It was kinda lazy to go back and fix it twice but as long as they fixed it for me im satisfied with it.

Of your desperate for a flat fix and they’re the closest, well you gotta pay what you gotta pay. Paid $ 30 for a tire fix when everyone else charges $ 10. But like I said, I was stuck. They were closests.
Americas tire and discount tire will fix them for free.

Been coming here for years. When you find a good mechanic you stick with them. Moses is a great guy and does honest work. Kudos to these guys for being a good, trustworthy small business.

BEWARE OF THIS PLACE!!!
I received a coupon for oil change for $ 14.95 at OTC AUTO REPAIR on 3724 Overland Ave. I sent my son to change oil of one of my cars .The mechanic asked for $ 25.00 claiming my car (Chevrolet) needed 7.5 quarts of oil (instead of the normal maximum of 5 quarts).
I own this car for 32 years and I do know that it takes 5 quarts! This man is a scam bag; out loud lair who probably thought my son was a dumb. Well, not so apparently. Understanding that the mechanic was trying to defraud him, my son went to Pep Boys, paid $ 19.99 and «amazingly» only 5 quarts of oil needed.
I will not put my foot in this place. Not trustworthy.
STAY AWAY and PASS THE WORD. Thank you!

Moses is the sort of mechanic you’re lucky to find by chance.
I took a car in thinking it needed brakes, he called me an hour later saying that the brakes were good, but it needed a couple quarts of oil, for which he didn’t charge.
They have a coupon in the valpak mailer which gets the cost of an oil change and comprehensive inspection down to $ 21. I believe it’s $ 29 normally. Great value and service.

These guys are great!
Had a blown tire that was locked into the wheel hub by a forced lugnut during my last rotation so I had to have my car towed in. They replaced the 2 wheels and fixed the wheel stud so it was usable again. The mechanic (Simon) spent a good fifteen minutes on the phone with me explaining everything about my car and was super-​patient with my questions and had a great attitude in general. Most mechanics don’t even take ten seconds explaining. Thank you Simon you are one in a million.
When I went to pick up my car I dropped off my mother-in-law’s car because it had a power steering leak and they expediently and again for a fair dollar amount fixed that as well.
Moses was great throughout both transactions and as well, a nice guy with a good attitude. This is definitely my new regular mechanic.

So my friend works all of a block away from this place and upon dropping him off at work this past Saturday morning, recalling the previous night’s inebriated bliss I was compelled to remember that the light within my dashboard had just prompted me that I was due an oil change.
From the parking lot of my friend’s office I Unilocaled «Acura oil change locations» and OTC popped up. While reading the reviews, the one thing that stuck out like 2 soar thumbs were other reviewers raving on the establishment’s «customer service» and «integrity» yet both would soon be revealed upon my visit.
Contacted OTC and was quoted $ 30 for an oil change. Noting that it was literally a block away alongside the fact that most likely had I driven to the Acura dealership, I’d have been outa’ pocket at least $ 75 – 80, I burned rubber to get to this place!
Pulled up and was greeted AT THE GATE! That is outstanding customer service. My car was serviced immediately yet aside of paying and then leaving,… a day or so later I noticed my cell phone was nowhere to be found. GRRRRRR!
I did state I was hungover at the beginning of this review (don’t judge me), so I was prompted to contact every restaurant I’d visited over the weekend only to come up empty handed. Something told me to download the iPhone «Locater» app– to my tablet and I did so to find that my iPhone was somewhere on Overland & Venice (coolest app– in the world!).
Now it goes w/​o saying that in ‘2014 it’d be asinine to think that anyone would return an electronic device upon their finding it, however I contacted Overland Tire Center to simply inquire on whether or not they happened to have stumbled upon an iPhone within the course of a day and after briefly being placed on hold — was told YES, that they had it. This, to me, illustrates the fact that aside of all of the crooks around, there are still GOOD people w/​GOOD hearts out there!
I wasn’t aware that the location was closed but I hauled azz to them only for the gate to be opened for me and upon verifying my code and unlocking my phone for the gentleman I now know is Moses, it was returned to me!!! IN THIS DAY AND AGE, THIS TYPE OF INTEGRITY IS UNPARALLELED and has added them to my family tree!!! Sorry Acura dealership, you’ve just been replaced!!!
Aside of performing oil changes and rotating tires (hmm), I wonder if he’s found a way to part the Red Sea. ;-)
Thanks again guys!

After calling a few places to compare tire prices, this place offered the best deal. Moses was super nice over the phone and in person. He is very knowledgable. I had some brakes I thought I needed but he explained the ones I still had were good and that the noise I was hearing was from my rotors which didn’t need to be immediately replaced. As I was sitting there waiting I saw Moses helping a woman who was picking up her car. He showed her the part he replaced to show her he damage. I love places that show you the replaced item so there’s no doubt that if in fact it needed replacing. I’ve definitely found a place I will be coming back to.
