    Last time I came here, there were items on my bill of work that had not been performed. Another time they damaged the posts by over tightening my lug nuts and the owner tried to charge me for the repairs after it had been established it was their fault and their employee told me they would fix it for free. Avoid this place at all costs, they will damage your car and won’t provide services you request although they’ll charge you for it.

    I went here for the tire inspection as I was unsure about the specific tread depth and I didn't have full faith in the penny test (when you see how much of Lincoln's head you can see). The staff were faster than expected, and relatively friendly. However, when they said the inspection was complete, they suggested a rotation, balancing and new tires. For reference, I have been using Goodyear tires for a few years, and bought tires rated for 50k miles. At the time, I had put about 30-35k on them. They also suggested an oil change, but didn't have my oil, so they suggested a different location I will not mention, as they charged double what any other location in the area charges, but that wasn't Goodyear's fault. Anyways. After the oil change at the second location, I went to my mechanic and they checked out my tires. They saw no issues, and suggested I replace them in 10-20k miles. Because it was such a dramatic difference, I went to another tire location, who gave me the same response, and even advised against me buying tires and making an appointment. As of now, I've put 15k miles more on the tires, and during my latest maintenence was told they still have life in them. Overall, I appreciate the fact they did the inspection for free. I am also glad the tires I did buy lasted over 50k miles as advertised. As for them suggesting new tires, a rotation, and balancing, that was obviously unnecessary, hence the 3 stars. The mishap with the oil change wasn't their fault, but I would imagine a Goodyear employee would know the better places in Santa Cruz to go (hint, stay local).

    I came here after work because it stated it was open. When I got there at 6:20, they were closed.
