This place is a scam. Have a flat tire? Dont bring it here, otherwise youll catch the lecture about how your car is unsafe to drive and needs $1200 worth of work. Literally, a $10 plug turns into $1200. Is this a movie cliche? No, just your local Oldsmar comedians turned mechanics. Question them and they will practically spit at you. Stay away at all costs. My mother used this location twice before I let her in on their ridiculousness. They had her car for 3 weeks once "trying to figure out" what the problem was. Coincidentally (not) the car magically had another issue after driving off the premises. She took it back there, paid a few hundred more dollars for some nonsense then mystically, yet again, a new problem arose directly after. At that point, I became aware of the situation and let her know that they are quite obviously dishonest. Took it to another mechanic, 6 months later her car is still problem free, who would have thought? Stay away from franchises like this, they are notorious for trying to lure you into all kinds of work you dont need done as it is the only way they can turn a profit. Do they actually sabotage your car? Im not sure, but you cant tell me it is a coincidence that your vehicle has a new problem after you leave a mechanic, especially after it happens twice in a row to a well cared for vehicle.

I had my 2nd Intake Manifold replaced at this location back in Sept. Since then, Ive been burning oil to the point where Ive had 4-5 oil changes/refills in that time. Ive asked knowledgeable friends and searched online and not one person has suggested something other than an Intake Manifold I took it back to Tires Plus and they told me I dont understand how it works and it cant possibly be an Intake Manifold. Thats when they told me all my oil needed was an additive. Yeah - an additive is going to stop me from losing oil so far... So I told them to do it even though I told them I didnt believe that was the issue. Sure enough, its still losing oil and their response now was "Oh, we figured it was something we might try". So now Im paying for them to try things, even though I told them I wont pay for some random guess. My car is at the dealership now and theyre saying its a bad intake manifold. You better believe Tires Plus is paying for this - and reimbursing me for unneccessary oil additives and oil changes.

Super scam. Super rude. Just needed a tire patch. Now I have road hazard from an alignment I needed and couldnt get in with my friend who OWNS his own shop. Ive had patches done and this nail might not have even been long enough to pierce the tire fully. The patch is free with the road hazard. I made an appointment and they booked FIVE other people at 3 oclock. Now 2 or 3 for the same time is normal because people dont show up but 5? I waited 2 hours for a 15 Minute job and they told me I needed a new tire. I asked to see the tire and they told me that I was clueless. Remind you I am a marine mechanic and captain and have several PROFESSIONAL friends in the business. This place will always remain a last resort and a tire only place. Tires are cheap there just make sure you watch closely as they put them on.

I went in to get a plug put in a tire. I had been driving around for two weeks with a screw in the tire. Rather than taking a quick look and telling me it cannot be plugged, they took 90 minutes to say they do not plug, they patch and that this needed a new tire. Then they checked the oil; it was "dirty", checked the transmission fluid; "it was dirty" Then provided a quote for $600.00 worth of work for a Honda ridgeline with 36,000 dealer-serviced mile on it. I guess I looked like I just fell off the turnip truck. I ran away as fast as I could. This place is a scam and a ripoff. I never authorized them to look at my engine. There are too many competing businesses in this area to go here

I usually have no problem with Tires Plus. Went in for an oil change 8/27, they told me my transmission fluid was dirty and needed to be flushed, even though I got my transmission fluid flushed 4 months ago at another Tires Plus location. I told them this, and they refused it was in their records. Called up another Tires Plus and had them confirm the time and date I had the service done. Just to be safe, I went home and checked my transmission fluid myself just to confirm that everything was in perfect condition. Dont assume that just because Im a girl Im dumb and gullible and dont know my way around cars. If you are not car smart and are looking for actual professional HELP, do not go here.

I have done business with this Oldsmar Tires Plus for about four years. They have worked well with my extended warranty company; they have dropped me where I needed to be locally; fixed my exhaust manifold gasket properly; fixed my air conditioning in about an hour without trying to push a lot of early maintenance on me (they did that for about 25% of my feared cost). I was quite surprised by the negative comments on this site; I generally dont comment on websites but these guys were recommended to me when I moved to Oldsmar and I have never been disappointed. They didnt even oversell me on tires when I needed a reasonable replacement for an older car.

We moved here about a year ago and I just wanted to leave a review and say that it has been an awesome experience every time. My boyfriend and I have both had to use them in this past year, probably more than we would like, but they have been nothing but helpful, friendly, honest, and efficient. To be honest, I havent had wonderful experiences with other Tires Plus locations in the past (most recently, the location in Largo when I just needed a quick oil change), but the guys at the Oldsmar location are on point every time. I needed a new tire this past weekend and Mark got me right in and taken care of and really helped me out. Awesome business.

Took my car in in this morning for a flat tire. I was called after an hour to be told not only could my flat not be fixed, but I needed 3 NEW tires, that they were all "shot." I bought these tires less than one year ago and only recently had them rotated at a reputable store, where I was advised they were fine. When asked to explain why they needed replaced I was shown some slight uneven tread wear . I took my business elsewhere and had my tire replaced due to a hole in the side wall. I wasnt asked to buy 3, and was reassured my other tires were fine. I will never return to Tires Plus.

I went here for a simple vehicle inspection required by my insurance company when I moved to Florida. I had an appointment, but that made no difference, I still waited an hour and 45-minutes to get in. I signed the paperwork and asked for the review, but they said they would send it to the insurance company, which seemed reasonable. However, a month later I was notified by the insurance company that no inspection report had been sent in, and so my policy might be rescinded. Overall, avoid these guys.
