My tire was flat and only needed to be plugged. He plugged it & did it in a reasonable time. Been coming here for tire needs for a couple years. Never had a bad experience & they price match.

Good Morning,
I am very upset with 17 Lake Avenue location. I live down the road from this place, many times through the year I have had them fix my car. Recently within the last year the services has changed. I paid extra money for warranty on my tires. I am a college student so that was very costly for me but I trusted them with the car and I needed a reliable place. Every few months I’m having them add air to the 1x tire until they fixed it.
Just recently I had a break inspection they did an alignment with oil change including rotating the tires. I drove off that time the car was shaking, I went back and they irradiated the problem. Now I’m trusting them to put lug nots keys back in glove compartments to remove tires they didn’t do it and nobody Know where the key is which is crazy because I don’t have a car can’t get to school, can’t go work. Have to sit around until the Irondequiot can create a plan. I didn’t think I should check to make sure stuff was being added back to where it initially was. I am just concerned that why do I have to take loss for this company from not putting material back. Something told me to leave lake Avenue 17 alone, but I went anyways so I can ride the bus home. I’m just concerned now.
