Had to come in this morning to get a tire replaced. Worked with the manager at the counter (not sure what good name was, maybe Bryce? He had white hair and a mustache) and while waiting for my car to be finished he was being absolutely berated by another customer. His handling of the situation was so professional and the way he de-escalated the situation with the man who was being an absolute nightmare (cussing the manager out, threatening him, tearing him up for things completely beyond his control, etc.) is really commendable. He’s clearly great at what he does and on top of his professionalism they were able to get us in and out pretty quickly for a last minute tire change.

When they go to put tires in this Wal-Mart, take out the lock nuts before, since they remove them with an gun impact and damage them and you have to find a mechanic to remove the other security because they do not do that job after damaging them. and they tell you that you come back with the amount of the extraction of the security nuts that professional

Horrible, had oil change last Friday and they lost the screw for the flap under my car and it fell and started dragging. Had to come back and they tied it off with a tie off. So tacky and unprofessional. No replacement for my flap.

Had an appt. Got there early they got me in and out with 4 new tires in under an hour. I also called around, it was only $60 more to just get brand new tires here than used elsewhere. Thanks guys!

What can I say about Nate (Manager) and Tasha that hasn’t been said a million times already. Both were honest, courteous and put the back into customer care. A mistake on another shift was handled professionally and promptly with Nate keeping his word to make good on the issue. Never once did either one make me feel like my satisfaction was a question and did so with pride. I do hope someone takes notice and gives Mrs. Tasha that Pepsi she earned a few times over, as well as a pat on the back for having these two genuine employees handling customers day in and day out!

If it was possible to give Zero stars I would!!!!!!!I came to this Walmart to get my tire fixed the one tire I bought 3 months ago front this exact location!!! I brought my phone with the conformation code the address to this Walmart and the date and they told me they couldn’t find it so I had to pay for the tire I got 3 months ago, which I shouldn’t have had to pay for. Also all I needed was my tire fixed and they told me I needed a completely new tire which is not true! The last 3 people said that they said the same thing they came to get their tire fixed but ended up “needing” a new tire! And if that wasn’t bad enough, all of the workers there were not friendly and giving me attitude about the situation that they caused!This was the worst visit I have ever had! I will NOT be coming back to this Walmart!!! Worst Customer Service ever!

I went to Walmart Tampa - Gunn Hwy Auto Garage on yesterday to have my battery (in which was under warranty) replaced because it was leaking acid from the terminal in which caused my car not to start. When I got there at 3:12pm the garage Manager announced I would be the last customer even though their hours of operation states they close at 7pm. I was then told it would take 6 hours to have the battery changed. I took a Uber home and they called and told me they put a new battery in but my car wouldn’t start because my starter needed to be replaced. I went back at 9am today and examined my car to find the battery incorrectly connected with a corroded terminal. I immediately brought this to the Assistant Manager (Bryant) attention in which had my car pushed out the garage and told me to have it towed to a Mechanic. I adamantly requested the terminal to be replaced / or to have the terminal rewired to the battery all to no avail. I waited 8 hours at Walmart only to have Kenneth a phenomenal driver from AAA come to my rescue and go above and beyond. He completely removed the terminal and rewired it to the battery. He even cleaned off the terminal with Acid Detector spray and my car turned on instantly 🙌🏾. ‼️‼️‼️‼️WARNING‼️‼️‼️ The “Mechanic’s” and Management at this location are incompetent. They will negligently “fix” your car and lie to you when it doesn’t work.

The Tire Center needs better communication skills. I was told by different reps that i can get same day service, while the cashier who brought the purchased tires said an appointment was needed. All after the fact i waited 25mins without so much as a How May I Help you?

Worst place to get auto care. Worst service. Worst auto venue. Worst attendents. Please stay away from this place. They treat customer as if they are doing huge favour. Moreover they would not care to follow up more than once in case you miss their call and voice mail. Worst day with them.

Review №15

Always a trustable location when I think of oil change, tire rotation, and new tire installation. What I loved about Walmart Car Care Center was that I could buy everything here for my car and the technicians will install it for free. The rate was reasonable, and lower than most lube services center anywhere. Huge selection of oil types, car care products, fluids, and filters were sold at a lowest possible price. I dropped my car here at 9:00 a.m. on a Sunday morning for the high-mileage oil change, fuel injector cleaning service, and two front tire change. The service was included carpet vacuum service, fluid level check, and fluid refill. They got the job done within 2 hours while I was shopping at the places nearby. Good service at a low rate!

Review for the CITRUS PARK WALMART in Tampa, Fl First they broke my dipstick and told me that somebody else had done it (nobody had worked on my car and the broken part miraculously appeared in my glove box) and they don’t seem to be certified or good mechanics since they don’t even have the knowledge of how to remove a battery from a Ford. They have bad attitudes and tell you one thing one day then you get there the next day and they just shrug their shoulders and say you need an appointment when they could’ve told you to do it in the first place.

I had a battery replacement that I needed and was told that it could take up to two hours. I had an infant with me and Im also currently sick. They got me in and out in only about 45 minutes. I was so happy that they seemed to take my situation into consideration. I appreciate the quick service today greatly.

Worst Walmart every. They wasted 2 hours of my day because they offered High mileage oil change but only in synthetic oil. They guy at the counter had many opportunities to inform me of this. I told him I only wanted a regular oil. They call me two hours later to tell me they didn’t offer regular oil. Thanks Nate

This place is HORRIBLE. Awful customer service. They stop taking cars at 5pm even though they are open until 7pm. They dont do appointments unless you are getting tires put on. What a joke. I recommend taking your business across the street to pep boys. At least they are reasonably priced and dont treat you like garbage.

They took so long to get the paperwork together for my oil change that multiple cars arrived AFTER me and ended up going BEFORE me to get their oil changed. Everyone had a different answer for what needed to be done with my car. Disorganized. Not very knowledgeable staff. I left, and they never did get the paperwork together.

Really good service. Went in for new tires, and even with a long wait, the staff was super helpful despite being very busy. Reason its a 4 and not a 5 was because they did not call us when the tires were done, we had to go check. But again, I completely understand because they seemed slammed today.

Review №62

Never easy to get in and out of this place. Not conveniently marked signs for entrance. Staff is dull and unimpressive. 2 hour wait to get a nail pulled out at 10:30 in the morning. I have their warranty. I can go to a tire shop and pay five bucks and get it done in 15 minutes. 1 hour wait just to have an oil change. Plus the time it takes to get it done. Better off going to Jiffy Lube in and out in 15 minutes. Staff didnt seem concerned working at a slow pace. Shop people look sleepy and tired.

Every experience I’ve had at this location has been great. I’m an early bird so getting in and out has never been an issue. They told me all of the fees and pricing upfront which made my tire search a fairly easy process!! I would recommend coming as early as possible, because they do have a lot of customer traffic!!

They did exactly the job they said they would do, which is change my headlamp bulbs. Please note that they stop accepting customers at 5:30 to accommodate the 7pm closing time. This caused me a problem at 2 different locations for 3 days in a row until an associate explained that policy, which is not posted. It would be helpful if it were posted. It is also a good policy so that people cant show up at 645 wanting something.Ive noticed all the Walmart auto centers are jammed busy and the one person in the check out area is slammed with phone calls constantly. They always seem stressed (not just this location).

I went in on a Saturday morning. I explained that I needed my valve stem replaced on my Dodge Nirtro. They said it would be a three hour wait. I go back the next morning at 7:30 and they say I have to get a specific valve stem. I drive to an auto parts store to get the valve stem and get back to the auto service department and Ive been sitting in the waiting room for three hours and my car was just brought in the garage. Wont be coming back here again!

Review №84

This is the worst experience I’ve ever had spending my money anywhere. Over the course of 3 days they made my life hell. I wanted one tire replaced and they replaced the wrong one on day one. They also put a ruined spare on my car which exploded on the highway. I came back livid that they put me in danger and demanded they replace the RIGHT tire and they still charged me for “tire removal” although they screwed up on multiple accounts the day before. I had to come back the next day (day 3) at open (7am) as they guaranteed I’d be in and out. When I arrived they treated me like dirt and acted like I was crazy and used the words “we don’t make mistakes” (okay mr.walmart employee, you’re perfect we get it). Even after all this, I was there for 4 hours and missed a meeting at my job because of it. I finally get the RIGHT tire replaced, get in my car, and I find that they’ve ripped the headliner fabric off the top of my car, and I’m now tasked with learning how to replace that myself as I do NOT Trust these morons, and I can’t afford to pay $200 for an aesthetic fix. Worst experience of my life.

Terrible wait time. 3 or more hours of wait time depending on the service you need to have on your vehicle. I had to replace my tires and after complaining about the wait time they started to work on my car. While sitting on the parking lot I noticed they had skipped my vehicle to accommodate other customers that came after me. It was only after i threatened to call corporate that they started working on my car. As a result I had to reschedule other pertinent appointments i had. If you plan on changing tires make sure you dont schedule any appointments for the day you come to this place.

Steer clear of this place, their service has grossly declined over the years and prices have seemed to increase. I was there this morning from 6:30-8:30 am. (They open @ 7) Would have been finished earlier if the latina girl at the desk would have paid more attention to waiting customers than stocking items and called me out of the waiting room when my tire was actually ready. I had to ask after over an hour how much longer it would be, then she shuffles through some papers and checks me out. GeezzzzzAlso they are renovating the auto center until June 14 so its extremely loud to sit in the tiny waiting area. All the employees back there are extremely indifferent, even the gray-haired manager. He could barely muster a sad little hello. Wal-Mart should just close it...really.

Slow staff. They think that they are making you a favor for changing your oil. Always are talking between them while we are Waiting for service. Today March 1st 2019 they told me that I need to wait about 2-3 hours. If they can hurry up they can make the oil change for all cars in less than an hour. So fkd we went to pepboys cross the street and change my oil in less than half hour. Just cost me about $10 extra but worth it. Now Im free to keep going. I dont see anybody there who can be the boss and hurry the personnel. I never back there anymore.
