      Dear Sir/mam I am writing to formally raise a complaint against the Tire Choice Auto Service Center located in Pleasanton, California, regarding a recent service experience that involved improper brake installation on my vehicle and an unresolved refund. On [exact service date [ feb/08/2025 ], I took my 2014 *** ****** Hybrid to the Tire Choice Auto Service Center for the following services: • Replacement of front and rear brakes and rotors • Oil change • Air filter and cabin filter replacement Soon after the service, I noticed a serious issue with the front brakes. Within three days, I returned to the shop and explained the issue. However, the staff inspected the vehicle and assured me there was nothing wrong, and advised me to continue driving. Still concerned for my safety, I took my car to ****** **** ****** in Santa Clara on April 3, 2025, for a second opinion. Upon inspection, they informed me that the brake parts installed by Tire Choice were incorrect and unsafe, and recommended immediate replacement. I followed their advice due to the serious safety concerns and had the correct parts installed. After this, I returned to the Tire Choice service center and showed them: • The faulty parts they had installed • A video from the other mechanic demonstrating the issue The staff acknowledged their mistake and assured me that a full refund for the brake service would be processed. However, as of today, May 6, 2025, I have not received any refund. I have visited the service center twice since then, and each time they claim the refund has been escalated to the head office, but they are unable to give a timeline or confirmation of payment. This situation has caused me considerable distress and inconvenience, not to mention the safety risk I was exposed to due to their negligence. I request: 1. An immediate refund of the brake service charges. 2. A written apology acknowledging the error and delay. 3. Reimbursement for the additional cost I incurred due to

      This letter is in response to the complaint from ********** ********, #********.            I do have a
      refund request that was sent up from our store in Pleasanton regarding work
      that Mr. ******** had stated that he had redone elsewhere, and I have the approvals
      to process the refund however we need the documentation from the outside shop
      that has corrected the services on the vehicle.   The store has informed me that they have
      reached out to the guest multiple times requesting the documentation from the
      guest however he has failed to reach out to them or bring the documentation by.   If Mr. ******** would be so kind as to
      forward that documentation over to me, I will get the refund for what needed to
      be corrected on the vehicle by the outside shop refunded to him.Thank you for your time,Theresa G*******Guest Services ManagerMonro Inc.

      I had a very frustrating experience at Monro (Talcottville Rd, Vernon, CT) with a tire rotation and alignment for my 2005 ****** *****. I was turned away despite having an appointment, then told I needed new tires before an alignment. On my third visit (May 4, 2025), I bought an $82 ******* as advised. After installing the tires, I was told the alignment couldn’t be done due to a tie rod issue — which I wasn’t told beforehand. I questioned why the work proceeded without confirming with me, especially since the alignment was the main reason for my visit and tire purchase. The staff member had no clear answer and became visibly dismissive. I nearly lost my patience, but stayed calm and took his suggestion — “like I said, you can call corporate” — seriously.

      Since then, I have tried to contact Monroe’s corporate office multiple times. Their phone system is difficult to navigate, and I’ve been placed on hold for long periods without ever reaching a person. I also attempted to email them, but my messages bounced back or were blocked. After being rudely told to “just call corporate,” it’s incredibly disappointing to find that contacting them is nearly impossible. It feels like I’ve been pushed in circles with no accountability or support.

      I’m now out $505.85 and feel misled into paying for services I never received. No one made any effort to fix the issue or even apologize. This was a huge inconvenience — it cost me time, money, and multiple trips. I’ve been a loyal Monro customer for years, and I’m disappointed that such poor service and communication went unaddressed. I expected better.

      Amount Paid: $505.85
      Resolution Requested: Full or partial refund — especially for the unused $82 ******* — and acknowledgment of poor service and communication.

      This letter is in response to the complaint from ***** ****,
      #********.            We apologize
      Mr. **** is not happy with the service he received at our location in Vernon
      Rockville, Connecticut however we would not be able to process a refund for the
      services that have been provided due to the invoice is for a set of 2
      tires.  As for the ******* that was
      purchased for the alignment that was not performed, we are not able to process
      a refund for something we have not been paid for.  Mr. **** would need to go back to ******* and
      request a refund for a service that was not performed.Thank you for your time,Theresa G*******Guest Services ManagerMonro Inc.

      Better Business Bureau:

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.

      When I contacted ******* for a refund, they specifically stated that the ******* would need to be refunded by the business, as once the ******* is purchased the payment is sent directly to the merchant, Monroe. Although I am dissatisfied with this whole experience and feel JIPPED into paying for services that I really did NOT request I do not wish to drag this on as I see it going nowhere. I would like my complaint to be posted by the BBB so that future customers with concerns can AT LEAST have a forewarning about the shady dealings of Monroe. I also noticed there was no apology for the tone of the worker and his dismissal of my concerns when trying to meditate this situation in-person. Which I would also note. His dismissive "You can call corporate-" went absolutely nowhere as their corporate is impossible to contact, so if any future customers are having issues I would strongly suggest that they get them handled THEN and THERE because if you leave, your basically "assed" out.

      Regards,

      ***** ****

      Mr. Tire, Shop #0877, located at 899 Refugee Rd, Pickerington, OH 43147, and to request a full $$1,739.14 refund. On March 17, 2025, I brought my vehicle in due to the check engine light being illuminated. At that time, the vehicle was running normally and not experiencing any stalling or drivability issues—only the warning light was on. I was advised that the issue might be related to a sensor, but the high-pressure fuel pump and spark plugs were also mentioned, though no definitive diagnosis was provided. Despite the lack of clarity, I proceeded with the recommended services, which included replacing the fuel pump, spark plugs, and an oil change. Unfortunately, these repairs did not resolve the issue. When I picked up the vehicle on March 21, the check engine light reappeared shortly after driving away, and the vehicle began stalling—an issue that had not existed prior to the service. I returned the vehicle to Mr. Tire immediately. After further work, I retrieved the car again on Sunday, March 23. The next day the car shut down on me on my way to work. I was forced to have the car towed to ******* *** in Whitehall, OH. At ******* **** it was determined that a faulty, off-brand high-pressure fuel pump had been installed by Mr. Tire. The dealership replaced it with the proper OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part. Their invoice confirms that they addressed the same components— fuel pump—that Mr. Tire had previously worked on, but this time the repair was successful, and the issue was resolved. Additionally, ******* *** determined with the invoice that the other work performed by Mr. Tire, including the replacement of certain parts and the oil change, was unnecessary and unrelated to the actual issue. This led to additional costs that should never have been incurred. The use of non-manufacturer parts, the misdiagnosis, and the performance of unneeded repairs not only failed to correct the initial problem but also introduced new mechanical issues.

      reviewed the documentation and invoices that Mr. ****** has provided and the
      evidence of the text messages between Mr. ****** and his mechanic shows that
      the fuel pump failing was due to an internal failure and not due to the work
      that our store has provided.  With we are
      willing to refund the cost for our fuel pump that we installed as well as the
      fuel system cleaning $816.16, as well as the service we provided $265.41 that
      was paid to our shop on the second visit as well. The breakdown is as follows.$265.41 (invoice from March 22, 2025)$816.16 (fuel pump and fuel system cleaning done on March
      17, 2025)            If Mr.

      credit cards that the guest paid with.Thank you for your time,Theresa G*******Guest Services ManagerMonro Inc.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********,and find that this resolution is decent to me. However, I believe I should receive a full refund because I was told the previous repairs would fix my vehicle. In reality, the work performed at Mr. Tire was unnecessary, and I ended up paying for unnecessary repairs that did not resolve the issue and caused several inconveniences. Best Regards,

      On 1/3/25 I took my 2024 ********* *** **** to Monro/Tire Choice on 1210 E Commercial Blvd Oakland Park, FL 33334. I was having issues with noisy breaks. They put it on the lift and immediately damaged my drivers door, they proceeded to take my breaks apart and damaged the breaks and sensors. I was then given a business card to a body guy and told it would be cheap for me to get it fixed. I reached out to customer service via phone call to Monro and filled a claim #****** and sent over all supporting documents and pictures to *************************) after calling no less than 10-15 times and sending additional emails I was finally told it went to the the damage’s department and was given a number to call. When you call it prompts you select to select to options and then place you on hold only to have you leave a voicemail. Not once have they responded or reached out. They are very obviously avoiding me and will not cooperate on any level. I am trying to avoid a lawsuit but it’s getting to a point I will have no choice

      My 19 year old college student went to Monro in Warren PA to get an oil change. He was first asked by the manager to go purchase his own oil filter because they did not have one in stock. He should have been asked to reschedule the appointment, asked to come back when their staff went to purchase the oil filter or have the oil filter delivered. My son came back from the auto parts store and the oil changed was completed. After the oil change my son had problems with oil leaking. I told him it could be because the vehicle is older. 2011 ********** *****.He watched a video on how to add oil. The oil light kept coming on so I switched vehicles with him . We took it to our mechanic .Our mechanic said the filter was incorrectly installed. It was jammed into the housing unit causing the filter to be damaged. I called the manager and he said he would issue a refund. Within a week no refund was issued and he told me he did not know how to process the refund. I gave him another week and he said he would try to issue it again He wasn't sure how to work the machine. I gave him another week He said his supervisor would need pictures and the invoice which I provided. I never heard back from him. I called him again and he said he would CC me on an email with his supervisor and let me know the outcome. He never called or included me on the email. He said he forgot to include me and he ran out of time to call me. I called the corporate office several times and I was promised a call back which nobody ever called me back so I kept calling. I did get a call from a claims manager and he was confused why he was assigned to my case because it was for vehicles that were damaged not for this kind of claim. I did receive a phone call on Saturday April 26th from a claims representative and she said she would put this to her claims team on Monday and somebody would call me back but nobody did. I have called this company including the store over 20 times trying to resolve this matter.

      reviewed the documentation that Ms. *** has provided regarding the oil change
      that was performed by our location and the invoice for the oil change that was
      done at ********** **** **** and determined that we would not be refunding the
      cost of our oil change or the oil change that was done at the other auto shop.  There is nothing on the invoice from ********** **** that indicates that our oil change was done incorrectly or that there was
      an issue with the oil filter that had been installed onto the vehicle by our
      shop.  Furthermore, the guest has
      traveled over 4000 miles since our service was performed which would be within
      the recommended time frame to have an oil change performed on the vehicle.Thank you for your time,Theresa G*******Guest Services ManagerMonro Inc.

      Saturday April 19,2025 Ken Towery changed the oil in my 2007 *****, while at the estasblishment I noticed the tech, J. G******* using a towel to clean up what appeared to be a spill. After services were completed I noticed my car driving weird, and some smoking. I assumed it was just something minor and continued to drive. On Tuesday, April 22,2025, my car was still driving weird ( slight hesistation ) and started smoking more than before, I heard a loud pop and the car shut off. I had to call a tow truck to take to ****** ********** To my horror: the battery, alternator, radiator and serpentine belt were all damaged and had to be replaced. Total repairs; exceed $2000. I am requesting that Ken Towery refund us for the repairs, due to their mistake of spilling oil or something inside my car causing this OUTRAGEOUS repair bill. MY CAR was driveable prior to getting oil change from KEN TOWERY and afterwards it WAS COMPLETELY undrivable .

      I needed two tires for the front of my truck as they were in bad shape. I called tire warehouse, on Saturday April 26th, they told me they don’t sell my brand of tires. So they told me the cheapest tires they had was **** ***’s for 180$ a piece so I told her let’s do it I’ll just get all four. I picked up my truck Monday April 28th and they handed me a bill for over 1200$. Come to find out they charged me 275 for each tire. I told the guy it was wrong that I was told it was 180$ a tire. He continues to tell me that person didn’t know what they were talking about. I never would have bought the tires if they were that much. They scammed me out of 400$.

Each tire was suppose to be 180$ they decided to wait till truck was done to tell me new price of tires. I will not be wasting my time calling competitors to get priced match. I was told one price and charged another. There’s no negotiation needed. Either I get what I was told the price was or I call attorney generals and start small claims.

      On Feb 24th I took my vehicle for repairs to fix an oil leak and get my vehicle inspected. While my car was there the manager called and told me i would also need a tune up. In total I spent 1811.59

      On April 2nd I added 2+ quarts of oil and there was a loud knocking.

      On April 3rd I took my vehicle back to Monro and Gary admitted to installing a defective valve cover gasket. He did do the work again but was not there when I picked up my vehicle and did not leave me a service receipt. Upon picking up my vehicle I noticed the check engine light was on and that it was idling roughly. When I called Gary to ask about this he said the check engine light will go out on it's own and the idling sounds better when given gas. I did not sound better and the check engine light remained. The next day the drive light on my dash began to blink. When I took my vehicle back he said that the current issues could have happened on there own. But my car did not sound this bad before every bringing it for repairs.

      I spoke with corporate who sent me to another mechanic that instead of helping me attempted to manipulate me into trusting him saying he was supposed to charge me for diagnostics but that he didn't feel right doing so. When I spoke again with corporate they informed me he was not to charge me for diagnostics.

      Yesterday I took my vehicle to another mechanic that informed my my engine will fail. I have been trying to get in touch with corporate since and my calls and emails are going unanswered.

      determined that a refund for our services will not be issued.Ms. ********** brought her vehicle
      to our shop on February 24, 2025, specifically requesting repair of an oil
      leak, which involved replacing the valve cover and oil pan gaskets. During the
      inspection, our technicians also identified a misfire and provided an estimate
      for replacing the spark plugs and a coil pack. At no point during this visit
      did Ms. ********** request a diagnostic related to any noise, nor was any
      concern regarding noise mentioned.Furthermore, the documentation from
      the outside repair facility does not indicate that the noise Ms. ********** is
      currently experiencing is related to or caused by the services we performed.
      There is no indication of any issues or deficiencies with the work completed by
      our team.Given these findings, we are
      confident in the quality and scope of the services rendered and see no basis
      for issuing a refund.Thank you for your time,Theresa G*******Guest Services ManagerMonro Inc.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.As noted in Monro’s last response, I was informed that someone from their Risk Management department would be reaching out to me within 48 hours. I did call the number provided (###-###-####, option 5) and left a message, but to date, I have not received a return call from Monro’s Risk Management department directly. Instead, I was contacted by a representative from ********* Insurance, who stated that Monro had forwarded the claim to them for investigation. While I have spoken with the insurance representative and appreciate that the claim is under review, I would like to point out that I have not been contacted by Monro’s Risk Department as was originally stated in their response. I remain committed to working toward a resolution and am cooperating fully with the appraisal process as part of the insurer’s investigation. However, I believe it’s important to clarify that the process described by Monro has not unfolded as they represented—and that I have made a good faith effort to follow their instructions. 
      Regards,

      ***** **********

      4/3/25, paid $1149.95 for brake service for 2017 **** ********. Upon leaving the store, heard and felt grinding in rear passenger brake area. Vehicle brought back and serviced, told that "backing plate was loose".
      4/10/25, while driving home, front driver brake caliper came loose and brake pad fell out while in motion, causing vehicle to lose all braking function. Luckily, although this could have resulted in major injury, including death, the vehicle was able to come to a stop without incident. Vehicle was towed back to original place of service. We were told "caliper bolt was stripped and came loose", resulting in caliper coming off and brake pad falling out while driving. While this comment is extremely concerning and not entirely believable, we entrusted the shop to service the brakes AGAIN to fix this issue, in which they did. During the time of the caliper coming loose, it made massive damage to the inside of the rim when the piston rubbed against the wheel until it was able to come to a stop. The shop employees admitted responsibility for this issue and offered to pay for the rim to be replaced.
      4/17/25, vehicle brought to ********* **** located in Wallingford, CT for a full brake inspection and quote for new rim. We felt that work that had been done on the vehicle was not only done incorrectly, but caused irreparable damage and above all, caused a MASSIVE safety risk to our lives while driving. **** quoted $789.97 for a USED rim, as new isn't available.
      Numerous attempts were made to contact Monro corporate in the following days to resolve this issue, case # ****** attempted to be filed, but told the service manager at Monro did not respond to inquiries from corporate to confirm any information. More attempts were made to reach the manager and corporate again with no response, customer service disconnects every time. Seeking full reimbursement due to unsafe work, dishonestly and no response from store or corporate after repeated attempts to resolve.

      This letter is in response to the complaint from ***** ********, #********.            Our office
      spoke with a **** ******** regarding the incident that occurred after her
      vehicle was into our shop for service and the representative followed our
      process of investigation here at guest services and contacted the store and her
      higher management regarding the matter and it was determined that the case
      would need to be handled by our risk management department due to this being alleged
      damages to the vehicle.   The case was then
      forwarded to the risk department, and they are currently doing their
      investigation on the matter.  We would ask that the guest **** reach out to our risk management department to get more information as to where
      the case is.  The phone number is ###-###-#### option 5.  At this time the case
      has not been handed to our insurance company therefore the best option would be
      to reach out to risk for further information on the case.Thank you for your time,Theresa G*******Guest Services ManagerMonro Inc.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
      Multiple attempts and messages have been made to get in contact with the risk assessment department regarding this issue over the last week. We have received no call back or any other communication regarding, even though we were told they would be contacting us. Also, these are not “alleged” damages. These are damages done as a result of poor workmanship from Monro, in which fault was admitted by the employee in store when the vehicle was towed back. While this company claims to have “escalated” this case, customer service is poor at best, does not return calls and for all purposes, is avoiding a resolution. This is unacceptable, especially due to the unsafe nature of the events that have occurred with no apology.I will continue to call the number listed in attempts to reach an actual person, however there is no option to hold on the line, as I get sent to voicemail every time with no response. 

      Regards,

      After three unsuccessful attempts to get my rear brakes done at this location on 4/1/25. Each time before that they told me they didn'tt have the correct staff or tools to get it done. After completing the service on 4/1 the employee told me he wasnt sure what happened but I now have several lights on my dash and he couldn't get them to turn off. He told me to come back in a few days when they had to correct tool to see what happened. I came back a few days later and he said he still didn't know what happend and to come back when another employee was working. I came back again and the other employee looked at it and said it was all a coincidence that this happened to my car and they wouldn't be fixing anything. I then called the district manager Tony who said he would refund me and that I should bring the car to another one of their locations. I still don't have the refund and now he's saying they will not be doing anything about my car.
