Thread: Canadian Tire Sucks at Auto Repairs - Unnecessary, over-priced, incompetent, incorrect and incomplete!

Angie Eninew your not the canadian tire l knew 10 yrs. ago your shop has made me turn against you for all the wreck you did on my sons car and made me waste money l could have used!

G.E. Nome While we're dissing Canadian Tire, I gotta say, I hate the scam artists in the auto service dept. who put used front end suspension parts on my car, that were worse than the strut assemblies I had, then called me a liar (to cover their own ass) when I told them it was against the law to replace parts with used parts, without the customer's knowledge and consent. I'll never have my car serviced there again.

Heike Carter I agree. We had the worst mechanics and manager in Deep River ON Can. Tire a few years back. They tried to take tires off my husbands Jeep but had no success so they used the torch and ruined half of the bolts and than when my husband said something the manager started yelling at him and told him to get lost.

Sarah Anderson Very ised pissed off and NEVER returning to any of your stores!! The mechanics at the store fixed crap that was NOT needing to be fixed, put a hole thru my oil pan the size of a pencil, I had all my leaks fixed previously and it was your staff who destroyed my pil pan. I have 0$ to fox, replace it since then. They also told me I needed a new timing belt and water pump. JUST DID about a yr ago did not need to be done!!!!! Shame on you canadaian tire!! You don't have my thumbs up. Ashamed that your name involved Canada in it!!! Sucks to be canadian if your store is the "pride" of it!

Norman Di Pasquale NEVER let Canadian Tire even LOOK at your car!!! BIIIIG MISTAKE!!!!

Daniel Joyce Yes and the Canadian Tire Camrose auto shop is the biggest rip off, going, as my friend took his Car in for headlight problem. got charged almost $400.00 and all they fixed was a tail light bulb. Spoke to the store manager, and got lied to, no cusomer service at all, all about the money, very poor for Canadian tire's in Canada.

Brent Prosser I wouldn't let a Canadian Tire shop NEAR any vehicle I own.

Andrew Horton ...to never use Canadian Tire Automotive Services again! Untrustworthy, lots of bullshit, not to mention a broken glove box because they were too rough rooting around in there for something back in the summer. I took back my Toyota to the dealer where they fixed the glove box free of charge... Canadian Tire had no answer as to why my glove box would not close and didn't even offer to fix it.. ?? , even though it was fine before it went in there! Not to mention recently taking advantage of people and charging for work that doesn't need to be done, or charging you for telling you what is wrong, even though you brought it in there and told them the exact same thing the day before.... why??? Why charge me to tell me what I already know? I love the STORE, but the Auto Service section is suspect and feels like a massive swindle!

Craig Murray I wouldnt reccomend any auto service at the Charlottetown PEI location , they have a tendancy to do un authorized repair work and then expect the customer to just swallow the bill and pay for it . I have just had a very, very , bad experience with my daughters car there , no call asking if we wanted the repair work done, no authorization either verbal or written . Terrible , terrible customer service. Normally, I have a very specific mechanic do my work there. The counter lady assigned it to another mechanic even though we had specifically asked for the mechanic we always use. I was very surprised that my normal mechanic wasnt used or even aware of the issue , the counter agent that took my daughters keys, she was extremely rude to my wife and daughter , and just said we will get it in , even after we had already called and made an appointment. To make matters even better the car inspection was put in my son's name not the registered name on the registration. When I asked the manager on duty what happened he was like " I am at a loss for words" Great job CANADIAN TIRE Charlottetown. I wonder who else you have "surprised " with an unapproved repair bill . NO phone call No nothing Bravo! Bravo! Lets see what the consumer relation dept will do for me ? Social media gotta love it

Another Canadian New Year's Resolution:

Gary Morris One of mine is never to go to Canadian Tire for anything to do with auto servicing. This is after my experiences at the Richmond Hill-Silver Linden Drive location.
