NTB – National Tire & Battery

So just over three years ago I bought four new tires here. While it’s on the rack they say your back brakes are worn so I agree to another $ 200 or so. I got a ride home and rode my bike back the three miles and when I get there they say well your battery has died. I’m suspicious but say what can a new battery hurt? I didn’t know how old the current one was since I had bought the truck used a year ago. They suggest their best premier battery and I’m still somehow in a good mood and agree. Well now just after the 36 month free replacement has expired the battery goes out. They say sorry it’s out of warranty so I’m thinking I’m done. Now I clean the dirt off of the battery and it says 85 month pro rated warranty which it seems they want to ignore now that they’ve changed their name. I guess the Tired Kingdom name was, well, tired and had bad associations with it. The tires have been good but they don’t make them. The service has been horrible. After the initial encounter with them three years ago it was six months later and I found all of the screws on my airbox loose so it was sucking dirt all of that time. I know for a fact it was them because I had just serviced the air filter the week before and did not forget to tighten them as I checked them twice. Are they nice? Sure, sociopaths are always nice even when they’re lying to you or slicing your jugular vein. Stay away from this company. Period. Firestone still has a good rep on the expressway.

I have been getting my oil changed here for several years now. I never had a problem and they are always friendly and helpful. They have oil change special for $ 19.99 and with tax and disposal comes to $ 25. You can’t beat that deal. If I did it myself I would spend $ 20+ just for material and would have to do the work. I reccomend Tire Kingdom for oil change.

Had a bad experience here with break pad replacements. Something broke as they were replacing them so that was an additional expense I had to pay for and caused for my car to have to stay overnight. Then the break pads were still making noise so I took it back and they just said it was dirty. Unprofessional staff. I do not plan to return. This happened a while ago so they may be better now.
