Albert’s Tire

Do not go to this shop if you want more than tires. I went and was told I needed a lot of work on my car! They quoted me almost $ 800 in parts and$ 400 in labor… I got all of my parts online for less than $ 400 including tired and paid $ 100 for labor. Also, another mechanic told me two of the parts weren’t needed at all smh!! This place tried to rip me off! They wanted to take advantage of a female who does not kno much about cars. I had to take my male friend in with me for a second opinion and he told me that they were over charging me! Ladies, do not go there alone they will try to get as much money as they can out of you. I will never go back to Albert’s ever again.

Very friendly and quick service. Got my flat tire plugged in about 15 minutes for $ 21. Highly recommend.

These guys are awesome. Not only did they fix major repairs in my car they were kind and pleasant to work with. They were also incredibly flexible and gave me a slight discount on the final cost itself ($ 1000 instead of $ 1024.) Jim is especially an excellent customer service provider.
My car runs more smoothly now than before I took it in.
I would definitely recommend this place and will be returning there in the future for my auto repair needs.

I have been to this place a few times because it is close to my house. I got a flat tire because of the cold weather and had my car towed to them. They checked my tire for a slow leak and filled it back up with air and did not even charge me a service fee. They could have been dishonest and said that I needed to buy a new tire and I would have done it. From now on, I will always take my car to Albert’s when I need something.

Excellent Service and Value. I needed winter tires for my olds. I went to Alberts Tire on Carson Street. They had four great used tires to fit my car. Thanks Dean!

Excellent service! My tire was going flat because it had a nail stuck in it. The tire plug job only cost $ 21.35 and it took less than 10min from the time I first walked in the door to the time I drove away.
Courteous, fast, and fair priced. I will be coming back to Albert’s again in the future.

As I’m about to make the return journey from NJ to MI through Pittsburgh, I remembered why I wanted to create a Unilocal profile to begin with. Albert’s Tire was possibly the best example of customer service that I’ve experienced in years. Here’s the story:
I drive from Ann Arbor, MI into Pittsburgh on a Friday evening with plans to continue my journey to NJ the next morning. Unfortunately, my water pump gets a crack, the car overheats and shuts down just a few blocks from my hotel at Sheraton Square. I’m eventually able to get my car to stutter the rest of the way, park it overnight, and do some research for car repair places nearby.
I see that Albert’s Tire was open for a half day on Saturday and I get there about ten minutes before it opens at 8am; they have a waiting list of cars that made appointments, but I tell them my story, and they offer to at least check out what the problem is.
After an hour, they call me with the results: turns out it’s the water pump, 4 – 5 hours of labor minimum, and no way they can get to it today with only one mechanic in and a bunch of appointments already made. Keep in mind that most places in the area are closed Saturday and Sunday for repairs. Just as I’m thinking I’m going to be stuck in Pittsburgh and have to get a hotel until Monday, Albert’s calls me back. They called around town to a bunch of repair places and found one that would take care of me that day. They even gave them all the information they needed so the parts could be ordered and readied by the time a tow truck took my car the 20 minutes out to this 2^nd shop. At the 2^nd shop — Pinnacle Auto — I was taken care of professionally, the car completed earlier than expected and for less money than expected, and I made it back to NJ in time for Mother’s day.
