Editorial review from Citysearch 11/9/2012

Be very careful folks. I went there to replace 1 tire on my Audi A6. The car has 26,000 miles and is a leased vehicle that I'll be turning in six months from now. Was told ""you only have about half-tread left so we will only sell you a complete new set."" WTF? Right, like I just fell off the watermelon truck. On to a tire store that is interested in making some money. more

Very Friendly, Very Fast 9/3/2010

I showed up without an appointment after a blowout. They got me in and out in 25 minutes. The prices are reasonable but the customer service is absolutely impeccable. Everyone in the building had a smile on thier face. The gentleman who helped me was very knowledgable and gave me a few different options for my repair. More importantly, he didnt try to push me into anything i didnt want. more

Great Service, Attentive, Knowledgeable Staff 6/11/2010

I was looking to have my front breaks inspected and anticipated a replacement of pads and rotors. I woke up early to beat a possible morning rush, and without wasting any time, staff greated me very well, as I opened the door. I described what I was hearing from my breaks, the staff inspected the vehicle and didn't attempt to take advantage of my pocket book. I waited a short time as they had my parts delivered, replaced front rotors, and break pads. Price was what I anticipated, (after researching the night before). I WILL be back to service my vehicle again. I am now back on the highway thanks to the staff at Ashland Tire & Auto. Great guys gentlemen! Pros: Comfortable waiting area Cons: None to my knowledge. more

A very nice, friendly shop. 12/28/2009

Recently I started going to Ashland Tire and Auto and they have great service. If I have problems, the problems are normally solved very quickly and without any hassle. Once I had a tire problem that they fixed very quickly, and when I took the car out it was making funny noises. At no cost, they looked at the car again, found out the problem and offered to fix it for me, or told me a way I can do it myself. more

highly recommend 10/7/2009

I came in because I had a hole in my tire and it was the closest place to my houe.... so glad I did. Very friendly people working, were able to explain things very simply and gave me my options. They even talked to my Dad on the phone so he didn't have to worry about his daughter getting taken advantage of! Looked online after my visit and they gave me a fair price for the tires and the tires were rated #1 in consumer reports. I highly recommend and will definitely be back. Super fast too! Pros: fast, friendly, honest, fair price more

Cautiously Optimistic 4/10/2009

I needed new tires for my car and had no idea where to go. I chose Ashland Tire and Auto based on their stellar customer reviews. All of the other tire and auto places had exceptionally bad ratings. When I walked in the door I was immediately greeted with a 'Hello! How may we help you?' Good sign. I only had 3 types of tires to select from, which was fine by me. Expecting an hour long wait or more, we went to lunch. Exactly 36 minutes later, they called stating the job was complete. Wow, that was fast. The place was packed too - I definitely was not the first (or probably 5th) customer waiting. The biggest surprise was my bill. I expected them to charge me for the full hour of labor (~$100). Instead, they charged me half, because that's what it took. They didn't nickle and dime me either with the taxes and all of the other miscellaneous charges they like to throw in. My overall bill was $100 less than I expected. I highly, highly recommend Ashland Tire and Auto. Pros: Excellent Service, Fast, Fair Prices Cons: Had to travel on 90/94 more

Great Service! 2/25/2009

I've taken my honda here 2 or 3 times & finally decided to write a review. Once was for tires. I came in there about a half hour before closing & regardless of the late hour they were still able to do fix my issue that night, no hassle. The other 2 times were for brakes. I was told by another shop (Lawrence & Ashland - boo) that I needed new brakes. It seemed fishy to me, so I went here for another opinion. They said no way; my car would be good for another 15,000 miles. They charged me $50 for looking at it, but I was grateful not have to pay $800 something for new brakes! & Appreciated the honesty! They seemed as angry as I was that the other shop wasted our time & tried to get me for something I didn't need. So I went back here when the brake light on my dash board came on (a year later), fully expecting to need new brakes. No again! They cleaned & adjusted them & all still seems good over 3 months later. I will definitely go back. These guys are great. Pros: great service, honest answers more

really nice guys 9/9/2008

I've taken our minivan to Ashland Tire and Auto five times in the last few months (for tire and brake work) and have been pleased each time with their service. They have convenient hours and a convenient location, they are speedy, they charge a reasonable rate for their work, and they do a complete job. They are exceptionally considerate and this part of their service is what prompted me to write this review. Pros: convenient location and hours, very friendly service more

Quick, friendly, willing to take the extra step! 9/6/2008

My clutch gave out on the day of an important event at work and right before the weekend. I had my car towed to Ashland Tire & Auto. They said they'd call as soon as they'd had a chance to take a look at it. I was expecting them to call several hours later, as they looked very busy. They called about half an hour later with news that the repairs would not be as serious as I had thought and would cost a lot less. They got it done by the end of the day. All in all, a good experience! But, the real kicker is that when I drove my car home, I noticed a loud muffler sound. I took it back in to Ashland Tire & Auto the next morning (today, actually) and they looked at it immediately and told me what was wrong. Since I had just had that part replaced at another repair shop a few months earlier, they suggested that I take it back to them. The cost for them to look at it immediately? Completely free. I'll definitely be back for other car service! more

Most Honest Service In City 6/27/2008

I've been going to these guys for 8 years because they are, hands down, the best at what they do in the entire city. If you need under-car work of any kind (tires, brakes, exhaust, suspension, etc.), this is your place. I've taken foreign and domestic cars to them, and never been disappointed in any way. Pros: Honest, Knowledgeable, Quick Cons: Not a one more

Most respectable car place around! 4/17/2008

I recently had parts stolen off my car. Of course as this was a shock to me panic overtook me when I had to figure out how to get around for the rest fo the week. Ashland Auto and Tire was recommended to me the same day I found the incident. They called me and told me exaclty what was wrong and recommend I get the police on the phone right away. I was able to bring my car in that night, they allowed for the car to sit there till the insurance people came, and got the work done same day that the repair was authorized. I was running late to pick up the car when it was ready and they stayed late for me. These people are gentleman, respectful, do not talk to you like you are stupid, and get the work done fast, and correct. They were extremely helpful and understanding to my situation and I would recommend them for anything and to anyone, ( as long as you show the respect in return). Thank you for a wonderful experience in a stressful time for me! more

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3/5/2008

My car was brought there for patching a flat tire. When i picked it up the next day the tire was patched and a huge dent had been put in the front end!\r \r They, of course, asked "how i knew it happened here? It could have happened on the street." Yes, it could have, except i don't park on the street and there are no cars near my parking spot. Furthermore, it wasn't there when i handed over the keys.\r \r Tire repair=$20\r Dealing with these "people"= -$1250 (estimate)\r \r Realizing driving 30 miles to go to my usual garage for quality work is a small price to pay = Priceless more

Busy, but friendly staff and fair prices 3/3/2008

I hobbled into the place with a horribly flat tire. It was a bit busy because everyone was picking up their cars after work, but I waited only 10 minutes or so before they looked at my tires. I hoped to get away with just patching my flat, but the guys told me what I unfortunately already knew - I had ridiculously bald tires. After they asked if I'd like to put the spare on or buy new tires, I opted for a whole new set of tires. Less than 20 minutes later I was driving away! While I spent more than I wanted to, it was my fault for letting the tires go so bald. As a woman, I am always very skeptical of cost at repair shops, but knowing what I spent last time on a new set, I feel confident that I received a good deal. I will return... Pros: Value priced tires, honest service Cons: Entry to garage gets pretty crowded if a lot of people are picking up/dropping off at the same time, inside can be chaotic too more

The Best in Town 2/12/2008

I had a flat tire and called to see if I could quickly get in. I called at 4pm, they told me if I was there by 5pm they could complete the work that day. I was in and out by 5:10pm and I only had to pay $20. more

Amazingly fast and friendly service 8/6/2007

I got my 2nd flat tire in less than 2 months and had been raked over the coals by my car dealership previously. I called Ashland Tire, walked in without an appointment, and was taken care of immediately. They checked the old tire for possible repair and, when it was determined to be irreparable, actually had the tire I needed in stock, for significantly less than my dealership. (Labor cost was far less too.) They even took the time to explain why this particular style of tire was more prone to flats. I was in and out in less than 20 minutes. Amazing! Pros: Friendly, approachable, lightning-fast service even without appointment, good value more
