Afj Discount Tire & Muffler

Had gone in yesterday to get my brakes and rotors changed on my car. On the phone he had said they had them. Went in got a quote that was 50 $ more than he had told me over the phone. So I said sure. Whatever it’s 50 bucks. Then I was told that he didn’t have the parts and to come in the next day (today) so I did expecting the parts to be there at the time he told me to come. But of course he said he didn’t have them. And then went through again and added another 100 $ to the final quote I had received. Never again.

I purchased 4 tires, and didn’t like them once I saw them on the car a few days later. I mentioned, had I known the tires were going to look so ugly on my car, I would’ve paid a little more money per tire to get the ones that I originally wanted at another tire shop. There was nothing they said they could do because the tires were already on the car, their hands were tied, I understand that as a businessman myself, so I wanted to talk to them about purchasing an additional four tires the ones that I originally wanted; and they became strangely defensive, dismissive and un-​attentive, didn’t really seem interested in selling more tires. Also one of the workers was kind of rude; just an overall bad experience. I will not be getting tires for any of my 4 cars at this shop, nor will I refer anyone from the two car clubs I’m in or anyone from my family. If they’re willing to lose business because of a difference of opinion, what would they do when there’s a serious issue. Be cautious when dealing with these people.

I have been going to AFJ forever. Fred is honest, sincere and cares about his customers. I have 3 cars I take there, a Kia, a Saturn and a BMW. Nothing but fair and honest prices and service. If I do not need something, Fred will say so and send me on my way. He never, ever takes advantage of a customer.
I cannot think of even one negative thing to say, not one.

Just had my tires changed on my car. I replaced all four about 2 weeks ago and they told me that I needed to change my struts. They recommended that the struts are to be replaced every 50,000 miles. So I went with their advice and they replaced it.
Now my car is in worse condition, squeaking with every movement and a lot more unstable than before changing the struts. They said that it was because my tires had too much pressure on them that it was causing my car to bounce more. They released some pressure from the tires and test drove it again. Still making the noise in what I believe to be the struts and now the Mechanic is saying that my car is old and the motor is really loose and it may also be the axle.
I know this isn’t true.
I am going to go to another mechanic to get a second opinion.
I spent a little over $ 1000 on struts and tires and came out to be screwed by some corrupt mechanics.

If you want to be told your tires do not need air after you just checked them this is your place. Once I finally talked them into putting air into my tires they told me it was going to be $ 15.

Fred the owner is a great and honest man. I have had tires, oil changes, brakes, etc. services on my three cars (including my baby Corvette) and have always been treated fairly and satisfied. This same experience has been recanted to my by friends, family, neighbors and employees. All said — great place to do business.
