Terrible, bizarre experience at this shop. In November of 2020 I brought my Ioniq Plug-in to check my driver side tire air leak. While there, I also added an oil change. They had the car for an hour and a half, could not locate a leak, however, did an oil change. Fast forward to May 2021, I noticed oil drops on my driveway. When I removed the filter cover, I saw the obvious problem. They did not remove the factory Hyundai oil filter, completely mutilated it, but left it in place without telling me. When I contacted Good Year manager on Monday morning, he wasnt very receptive, however, agreed to see the car on Friday that week. I explained that oil flow was increasing by the day, especially while driving and he agreed to get me in on Tuesday 8 AM. When I arrived, I parked the car in front of an empty bay door. The manager came out and rudely told me to move the car. I attempted to explain that Im not trying to start any trouble and I am the person that called yesterday, however, he rudely interrupted me and said that even if I start trouble, he will get me arrested by sheriff deputies that were servicing their cars later that day. This was all very odd, explained only by a little man having a power trip, however, he later agreed to swap the filter and top off the oil without even saying as much as a sorry. Of course, they did not wipe off the excess oil after the new filter was put on, so I had to clean it up myself.I am still trying to absorb the whole experience, trying to determine if I was at fault somehow. I dont change oil often, since I drive very little and 99% are EV miles. Was it my fault that the filter canister rusted through 6 months later and started to drip now? Would experience be any different if it started to drip 1 month later? In any case, I dont understand how a national chain can employ individuals like this, from top to bottom. What other shortcuts do they find acceptable when servicing their costumers vehicles?

Got a flat on my way home from vacation and Dom and his team went out of their way to take care of me. Luckily I just needed a plug which Alex completed quickly and professionally. Best of all they didn’t even charge me since it was my birthday. I highly recommend this place. They truly care about there customers.

This morning, driving down the Northway, I would have never expected that my windshield wipers would stop working during this morning’s heavy rainstorm. As a result, my travels took a detour to Goodyear and was greeted by Rob Morris.My encounter with Rob was very positive and he made me feel welcome the entire time. He was thorough when explained the time frame to complete the repair and was discreet when reviewing the charges with me in the waiting room area.The morning seemed busy to me (every seat was occupied) and there was a steady stream of people getting their car serviced. I was impressed that Rob knew several (repeat) customers by name and engaged them in conversation while keeping his composure in managing the flow of traffic.Later in the afternoon, I picked up my vehicle and Rob greeted me in the same friendly manner and remembered my name. You could tell Rob enjoys what he does and I wanted to share the impact he had on me today.

Good Year on Wolf Road in Colonie was able to fit me in for some maintenance on my car without an appointment. Rob, the Store Manager was very accommodating and provided great customer service.I am also a big fan of the 3 year alignment plan that they have. Unlimited alignments on your vehicle for 3 years. It pays for itself after the second alignment. Great job, Goodyear Team in Colonie!!

Crooks. Took it in for an inspection, Told me I needed two front tires and quoted me $1300 including all the discounts. The existing tires were basically new. 100 thousand miles tires I had purchased like a year ago and still under warranty.So I said no thanks. They pressured me saying that the car has failed inspection and they will have to take the sticker off. Took the car to my local garage the next day and they passed it. They said you don[t need tires. Your tires are fine. I said I know, they were just trying to pressure me into buying tires. Advised me what this garage did was illegal and that I should report them to the highway safety dept. At any rate even if I had needed new tires, the price they quoted me was ridiculous. I can get four high quality tires mounted for the price they were quoting me for two! If I could give less than one star I would. Be cautious if you have to use this garage. Ridiculous. They should be ashamed of themselves. And refund the $21 they still charged me for the inspection.

I took my moms car to Goodyear on wolf road for an alignment. Rob was able to get me in the same day with only 30mins of wait time. He was very kind and informative. The service check was done in 1hr as promised. The technician that performed the service did a great job and the car is now running 100% better. 10/10 would recommend this service shop!

After blowing out two tires on the 87, I had my car towed to this Goodyear, because it was conveniently next to my work. These guys went above and beyond!

Goodyear has exceeded our expectations again as usual. After being told that I needed front and rear brakes by a dealership for an exorbitant amount of money I decided to bring my car in to Goodyear for a tire rotation and inspection. Anthony did an amazing job and to my surprise....I do not need brakes. He took the time to explain exactly what I need and it is a much less expensive fix. The manager was also very accommodating because right after my car they took in my husband’s truck and did an oil change and tire rotation. Very clean store, nice, honest people and great customer service. What more can you ask for? Will never go anywhere else again!

Review №29

Ive been going here on and off for several years now. The last manager I dealt with, Rob was fantastic. This time I dealt had an an employee that was absolutely awful. He was rude, unhelpful, and uncooperative.We brought my wifes car in for an inspection. The employee called us and informed us of a bunch of work that needed to be done. I agreed to it because I have always trusted them in the past. The total was about $1400 dollars. To be fair, he did give us discounts were he could and we had AAA. We got the car home and she realized that the inspection sticker had not been changed. I called and the employee acted very rudely and asked that the car be brought back. It turns out that the inspection had failed (actually they hadnt done the inspection but we were charged for it) and he informed my wife, it is our responsibility to read the paper work. Now, I agree with him on that HOWEVER, how much effort would it have taken him to tell us that when we were checking out?Seriously, the whole reason we brought the car there was for the inspection and you cant take the time and tell us it failed? Further, when I read the page stating it failed it didnt explain what we were supposed to do to fix it. He didnt even TRY to explain or be helpful at all, it was all our fault for not reading the paper work.Update to post - 10/29/21 - Was contacted by Rob and I believe we were able to come to an acceptable resolution. I am very grateful for his follow up and professional approach to my issue.Update to post - 10/30/21 - both cars have been inspected and Goodyear did a great job getting us in and out quickly and explaining everything. Thank you, Rob and Dave for being so professional, kind, and understanding.

Because of covid I was very hesitant to wait for my car during a new tire installation. My salesman assured me when I called for an appointment that appts. would be spaced to a assure their would be no crowding in the waiting room and all precautions were being taken. My salesman kept me informed of the progress and the crew had me out in under 2hrs . A great experience.

Review №52

Good experience. Rob is a pretty smart guy knows how to do business. My goodyear tires wore out prematurely. The tires had a mileage warranty of 65,000 miles but i had only done about 35,000. Rob made the effort to call corporate and get me a refund for the remaining miles the tire promises. I was offered a refund of about $64 per tire and the same tires now cost around $130 per tire. Used the refund to buy a set of 4 good year max life tires which i hope would last longer as the tire has a mileage warranty of 85kmiles. But guess what, if it doesn’t do 85k as promised i know who to contact. Very satisfied with good year’s warranty and Rob’s service.

Needed 4 new high end tires for my truck. Spent a bit of time shopping around. Their prices were within a couple of dollars of all their competitors.

Goodyear is by far absolutely the best auto service in Albany area!!! They are the most professional the most courteous and most competitive in terms of pricing! Also unlike other auto-services in the area they have such a nice customers corner where you can seat comfortable enjoying complimentary coffee while your car is taken care of. Very reliable company. I strongly recommend going to Goodyear on Wolf street first if you are looking for car services.

They were there when I needed them in a pinch and got me back on the road faster then anyone around!Excellent service! I blew out a tire first thing in the morning. I called around to several places and the soonest anyone could even start to help me was later in the afternoon. When I walked into this location I was greeted right away and after gathering information about my car and what I needed, they started working right away. My tire size was not available at the shop but they placed the order and had them delivered in an hour and started putting them on my car as soon as they got there. I was back on the road in 2.5 hours after replacing the tires and aligning all 4 wheels. I was informed every step of the way and really appreciated how quick and efficiently I was taken care of. They saved the day and would recommend them to everyone. They provide A+ service!

I have to say that this visit to Goodyear was better than my last. My car was worked on and returned to me when promised. They even put a sticker on my windshield to let me know when its due back (unfortunately, this was in my field of vision, but it was there). Also, nothing else was discovered wrong with my car, so there were no additional services performed besides the oil change and tire rotation. I mostly go to this place because its within walking distance of my office but this visit gave me no reservations about coming back.
