Andy, and Jeff are both skilled, and patient technicians! They helped me choose great tires and gave me a fair price.Im really glad I chose the nitrogen option with my new tires. It really makes a difference!

This place is NOT professional. I scheduled tires installation with them at 5pm on 9/22 through Goodyear. The guy who helped us (Estrada) was in a hurry. After taking everything out before the installation, he wasnt able to fit the new tires and told us the tires couldnt fit. I asked him to put everything back in because the tires we need were not available at the store. Right after that, my girlfriend found out something was missing (a metal piece) and I told him. He said sorry he forgot to install it. He got back to rework on our car (Im not sure if he forget anything else). The car made some loud noises that night and we had a flat tire the next morning on the way to work. I called the manager and he didnt seem to help (He said nobody he talked to touch it which is totally wrong because I have the invoice with the work #583605 in front of me). This place can cause troubles to your car and will not take any liabilities. Please go to a different place for better services.

Excellent experience. Work done was prompt and very professional. I needed three new tires. They previously changed my fourth tire. I was very satisfied with the work and customer service. Andy the manager was great to work with. I’ll be back as needed.

Have had tires down multiple times, quick and efficient. Asked to have all brakes redone but after inspection they recommended holding out on front - appreciate honest evaluation.

I made an appointment to fix an issue i had with my 2013 Dodge Journey. It was vibrating at the speed from 50 to 60. I stopped here to have them look at it and my truck is running just like new. Andy was efficient and helpful with any questions that I had. I definitely recommend and will return if needed.

Amazing staff. The mechanics here are top tier. I have an old 1993 Jeep Cherokee that has been fully customized and I was having a hard time finding a good mechanic that I trusted with her. I will always feel confident leaving both of my cars in their hands. They charge fair prices for their great work. They treat their customers with the upmost respect and I’ve never felt like I was being cheated or lied to. There is one person in particular that I find outstanding from his customer service to the work that he does and that is Geoff. From the first time that I brought my Jeep in till this day I truly believe that he is the best of the best. Geoff will always find a way to help you from scheduling issues that you may have to properly diagnosing your car. I give Acorn 10/10 and 5 stars. Keep up the great work guys!

Thank you Acorn Tire for going above and beyond. An expert team, very polite and timely… even when things are really busy, Acorn Tire gets it done. They take the time to explain and pay close attention to the details. I know i can count on Acorn Tire. They get 5 stars and then some!

Acorn is very helpful, knowledgeable, and not pushy when it comes to car repairs. They even cleaned a reusable filter I had instead of replacing it. Great service!

I needed muffler/exhaust replaced since it was getting loud on my car again. Ive been going to Acorn Tire for years so I trusted that they would do the job right. My car was ready the same day. I also asked for a recommendation for tires and they were able to provide the kind of tires I was looking for at a reasonable price. Excellent quality and service. I would definitely recommend.

UpdateIt turns out my noise is due to parking brake pads, which had detached from the brake shoes. A new mechanic found it out within an hour. Problem solved after $150.Compared to spending $700 at acorn, three trips, not fixing the problem I was having. You judge yourself.Original reviewI had suspension noises and the shop replaced tie rod and lower ball joints. There were some mixed-up with the first visit that caused the ball joints not replaced. After the third visit, the ball joints were replaced.Pro: the front desk people are very polite and pleasant to interact with, which makes it so hard to say anything bad about them.The results of the repair look professional and the car seems to drive fine after the work with no adverse effects.Con: The original problem of suspension noise like popping, clunking, and squeaking noises are still there. There is a disconnect between the front desk people and the actual technicians who worked on my car. Despite my repeated requests to the front desk people to check and fix the source of the noises, which are both annoying and scary, the technicians didnt know or do anything to address the problem.I must say that the front desk people at this place are very nice and have very good attitude towards customer. However, whatever I said to them concerning my cars problems was not heard by the actual technician. So unless you know exactly what your car needs, I think it might be frustrating to go to this place. Otherwise, its a wonderful experience. The only problem is, my car is still having scary and annoying suspension noise and I still need to have it fixed, perhaps somewhere else.

My mom and myself came to this mechanic shop to get maintenance done and afterwards my mom noticed that her fuel tank was not filling to the Full indicator. We had come back to try and see what possibly had gone wrong after picking up the car, and they had advised us that they would take a look. The initial mechanic said everything was fine and left us with the vehicle but then my mom decided to take the car elsewhere to check the vehicle. Only to find out that they had installed pieces that did not fit the vehicle type and they had charged my mom over 1000. My mom was clearly upset and felt that the mechanic at Acorn Tire & service lied to her about her vehicle being repaired correctly. We came back to confront the business after finding out what they did was incorrect. I cannot remember this guys name but he was an older white guy probably in his 50s who laughed at my moms face and did not apologize and we had called her Warranty to get this figured out with Acorn and they did indeed overcharge us and did not properly fixed the car. Beware of this place as they like to overcharge and not do the job right. We definitely have not returned since and will never return.

Went to Acorn in the past and was always satisfied with them. This time I went because of a loud noise coming from the rear of the vehicle. Turned out the rear end was going bad as well as some wheel and a brake issue. Everyone was very professional as always and the matter taken care of in a timely manner. I will continue to go to Acorn for mechanical and tire issues.

My experience was a strange one I gave it some time as to not post an angry review. Id like to preference the staff are generally kind well mannered. However, con men are usually kind. I went there initially to replace a specific tire *the driver rear*. Gets a tire replaced the young man tells me my tire pressure sensor is broken . I dwell on this instead of impulse buying new sensors. Go home tire light goes off. A couple of days later it comes back on. Also the new tire look a tad low. A couple weeks later its definitely low. I go back as soon as my work schedule allowed. Turns out the guy replaced the wrong tire, and seems to have lost the brand new tire I had on the passenger side (which was replaced with a dirty old cracked tired). So after realizing the mistake. Also taking two hours to tell me how this would be rectified. The young man simply repaired my tire with the hole in it. Oh and wouldnt you know it my tire pressure sensors are fine. The conclusion I came to was.(TLDR)They just basically stole a brand new tire, and filled my bad one with air. Theyre kind folks Im sure but beware of that scam.

Review №25

I bought a tire and less than a month into it the tire was not drivable. So I bought a second tire which today the assistant manager said is cracking. I have only used that second tire for less than two months. The sale associate assured me when I bought the second tire this would not happen again but it did. The worse part is they do not want to do anything to replace it. They just want to sell me a third tire. I have gone to Bridgestone and Midas. There tires have lasted significantly more time and are more durable. I would not recommend doing business here.I live very close by and its been very disappointing the service that I have gotten. I am going to tell all my neighbors not to go here.

Matt and the others at Acorn are SUPER friendly and professional. They were very communicative about what services my car needed and how long it would take to work in the repair. They even gave me a ride home and back to the shop so I didn’t have to wait in the waiting room all day. Their waiting area is very spacious so I felt safe in my surroundings. They also did not push me into getting services that I didn’t need, or take advantage of my minimal car knowledge. They are very honest and I would 100% recommend them to a friend! Support local business!

Friendly, professional service. Found the leak in my tire (that Firestone missed) and got it repaired. They also alerted me to break pad issues that were covered under my truck warranty. Brought it back to the dealer for them to address under warranty, but if it wasnt for Acorn major issues would have arisen that would not have been covered under warranty. Thanks Guys!

This place is the 4th furthest tire place from my house, but we will pretty much always come here. Theyre friendly, prices are fair, service is generous. Ive overheard the manager interacting very kindly and ethically with customers, notably older women. No upselling here, just straight talk. In short, this is a place youd feel comfortable sending your mom to.

Acorn Tire is fantastic! A friend recommended them to me and I am so happy I went. Chris and his team are extremely knowledgeable and professional. I came in for a simple oil change and tire balance, but had questions about other issues I was experiencing. At no extra charge Chris had my car looked at by a technician and addressed every issue. Before I left I had a full understanding of what was going on with my car, and price quotes if I chose to move forward with any work. Not only that, but the service was significantly cheaper than if I went to another auto shop. If I ever need any work done on my car in the future, it will definitely be at Acorn Tire. You gained a customer for life today, thanks guys!

Review №50

Poor management!!! As a former employee at another Goodyear store I was hoping this store might be different but it wasn’t. Went in for an oil change, tire rotation and a wheel alignment at 11:45am and was told the car would be done in 2hrs so I waited in the lobby. Well I was there for 3hrs and my car never even made it up the alignment rack. When I asked the manager about it around 2 pm he said the they were busy working on a masarati but that my car was next. I waited another hour and had my car wasn’t even in the shop. They tried pull it in as a was asking to leave. Why would you be working on a car that a customer has dropped off for the day when you have other customers waiting in the lobby, you think they would prioritize me but no. Save yourself the headache go across the street to Firestone or somewhere else these people don’t deserve your money at all.

I purchased four new radials for my car. The cost was exactly as quoted. Being a neighborhood business it will be really convenient to get my tires rotated in six months. This is my first experience with Acorn but I will continue to patronize them because of their prompt and courteous service.December Update: ‘Just got my tires rotated. Convenient and fast. 👍🏻July 2021 Update: One year to the day after my purchase and one week after my second rotation, I had a screw in the passenger front tire. Repaired while I waited. No charge. Same personnel too. Great service and continuity!

Acorn Tire & Service provides top notch wheels alignment. I chose to use the premium wheel alignment and so far has been very satisfied with their job. This service provide lifetime free alignment which I have used two times. I would recommend everyone should try to use this service if you plan to keep your car for a long time as the cost will pay for itself. I also really like the front office if you have to wait while your car is in service. The lobby is clean, well lit, free Wi-Fi, and best of all the view is awsome. I wish I can use this lobby everyday. Great job on the management, especially to Andy!!!

The dealership I purchased my car from put metal caps on the air vents for my tires which corroded and I wasnt able to get off to put air in my tires. They were able to get them off instead of breaking them off which would have led to me replacing the sensor. It saved over $300. They were honest and explained everything to me. Will definitely be going back.
