I took my car in to get a new tire since my last one tore from a pot hole. They told me they couldn't put a patch on a small hole in the side wall of the tire so i had no other option to buy a tire from them. There were only 3 other people there and it took over 2 hours to get the tire put on. Then about a month later that same tire went flat again but they put one of the nuts on so tight that it broke my socket wrench trying to get it off! I have asked other friends if they have ever gone to tireman too and all of them warned me of their low quality service. I will never go to tireman ever again even if My car breaks down in their parking lot!
very friendly, honest and knowledgeable people work here and no one comes close to their great prices. I've never taken my car anywhere else in Toledo!
I usually go to my hometown mechanic for problems with my vehicle. However, when the coolant light came on and my car was running dangerously hot, I didn't think it would make it the 60 miles back home. So I took it to Tireman on Central. I told them about the coolant light, but also SPECIFICALLY said it was making a rattling noise in front end that got louder as I accelerated (it had been making that noise for a couple of weeks, so I figured I might as well have it checked out while it was there). I left it there and got a call back later in the afternoon saying I needed a new water pump, because my old one was leaking coolant. Completely fine-I legitimately needed a water pump. When I asked about the rattling noise, they told me that the pump would fix that too. Sounds great-go ahead and fix my problems Tireman. I come back to pick it up because they said they were just finishing up (a whole other story that made me an hour and a half late to work, but I won't even go into that). Two hours later I get my car back, start it up aaand.... IT'S STILL MAKING THE RATTLING NOISE. Take it back the next day, and they say "You're engine's going bad, you're gonna need a new one". So you're telling me that trained mechanics didn't HEAR the knocking and think to themselves "Hmmm that doesn't sound right... and oh it doesn't sound ANYTHING like a bad water pump"?
Bottom line: I just put $350 into a car with a bad engine (that I just sold to a family friend who was generous and gave me $300 for), because this place wanted to make money instead of taking care of their customers. I would highly recommend steering clear of this place unless you know your way around a car and can call them out when they're trying to rip you off.
I called from the west coast and set up a tire buy for my kid. They took ok care of her
