Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I am an ex employee of tires plus i am writing this because the company is a rip off not only to consumers but the employees. I have seen them sell services and parts that were not needed, especially to woman and older people that do not understand about there cars. I was told i was not being productive enough because i refused to recommend services to meet there so called quotes. People come in and say just fix whatever is needed, that is a big mistake because that gives them the green light to do services that are not needed.

An example of this is a lady came in and was going to vegas, so she wanted a vehicle inspection, so the service manager said we will never see her again so they sold her an oil change (although she had just gotten 400 miles earlier) a belt,transmission flush and other things. her bill went from a 20$ inspection fee to 200 or more $. IT gets worse when things are slow, and the guys up front are not making there spiffs and such.

I also was promised a raise a month ago and have yet to see it.I have quit because of this. I would never go to tires plus or recommend anyone to go there.

Why is an Ex Employee being allowed to write something about there prior job? Not something I would base my expectations on.

you are an idiot you are the type of moron they love to see come in..what specifics on her car..she came in for an inspection to make sure her car was road worthy..as i said before not an oil change and the other stuff she just had done ..dont judge me you dont know what it is like i worked with these ripoff artists and they expected us to say things where wrong that were not. the two other mechanics in the shop fought with them daily over it. i am not the only one who quit over it..the two other guys both ase certified with over 15 years experiance each..and i was promised raises on a weekly bases its not like i asked them they brought it to me so f****k off!!!

Scott reading your post has gotten me thinking truely how foolish a disgruntled ex employee can be when your mind wanders away from the facts and its focused on your personal wants. Every auto repair facility has its ups and downs but to discrimenate against them all due to your personal experience was not very well thought out. Some specifics on your customers car would have made your ranting and raving more creditable. Im sure it is several miles from your location to Las Vegas, your customer deffinetly had concerns regarding her cars performance for such a long trip. Why she brought it in for the inspection, right? So was there anything wrong with her car? You really looked stupid. you don't care what people think & say. seems like you did. you replied. Another point I'd like to make is that if you were a "tech" a good one at that. your last concern would have been a pay raise. Those come to people who deserve them. here's a life lesson. quit talking and learn to walk the walk. PS enjoy fixing my speling/gammer....just trying to fit in =)

I agree with Scott. If you are going to post, try to spell the words correctly. The grammar is seriously lacking also. As for problems...I have none at my shop. No Glenn, I do not now, nopr have I ever worked for Tires Plus. My reputation being what it is, I was offered my own Tires Plus shop in Maryland by a guy who owned more than a dozen. I could have named my price. I did too...I went with someone else's offer. That was my price. What problems am I supposed to have at my shop Al? I have yet to have a complaint by a customer. Keep in mind, a "customer" is someone who pays to have something done. The Jabronies looking for FREE can complain all they want. I don't care. Because just like Glenn, they have paid nothing, and are out nothing.

it has nothing to do with my raise i was looking for a new job before my raise. if thats all it was about then thats all i would have said.Its all about they are a scumbag company that only cares about riping people off. but you obviously dont get it. i worked with some good mechanics, but the managment sucks they dont care about the customer or there employees. TIRES PLUS SUCKS! dont waste your time with another rebuttal i dont care what you think or say.

Your comment "I also was promised a raise a month ago and have yet to see it.I have quit because of this". realy throws doubt in my mind to your whole complaint. Im sure that if you would have gotten your raise we would have never heard from you and you'd still be working there. So my question for you is does money buy integrity?
