hole torn wide open again
The hole just ripped open again. My money fell all out. The van needed brake pads, they started squeaking, it was just that time. I had replaced them almost 3 years ago. So go to tire kingdom whom I pretty much always have a fight with them and probably sworn to never go back there again. As I expected, they list a whole grocery list of problems to fix in addition to what I need done, which was to replace front brake pads and do an oil change. I drop the car off and get the call. The list is as follows: front brake pads, front rotors, and rear brake cylinders. Front pads were $89 cause I had a coupon, oil change was $19.99 with coupon plus $3 disposal fee, rotors were $94 each!!!, cylinders were $39 each plus $69.99 labor to install rear cylinders. Crooks as usual.
Tire Kingdom Sucks
I tell the guy, let me think about it and I will call you back. I get in my car and drive over so I can see the car while they have it lifted. I agree to replace rear cylinders with their horrible price for the parts and labor and I refuse to have the rotors replaced. They said they were paper thin. The rotors were still fine. They just wanted to steal money from me because I used a coupon, and the manager moron wasn’t happy that I got the brake pads for $89.99. HELLO. YOU mailed me this coupon. He was trying to make it seem like they installed those free, no labor charges. Bite me. A pair of rotors and brake pads together cost $89 online. Their grand total with rotors was over $500, I paid $293 for the front brake pads, rear cylinders plus labor and the oil change. Still totally ripped off. I hate you tire kingdom. Need to patch up this hole in my pocket again!!!
Tire kingdom always steals so much for parts and then adds horrible labor charges for the work they do and that is one of the main reasons I fight with them, in addition to them doing horrible service that I have to go back to fight with them to correct and they try to charge me again for. I already went thru corporate with them once before and the manager that is no longer there had called me and apologized only after corporate got on his ass to do so. Tire kingdom sucks. Economy sucks.
