Town Fair Tire

3 weeks ago I bought these tires at Town Fair Tire, Seabrook, NH. Yesterday my tire warning light came on. I called and was put on hold for 10 minutes. I gave them a call back number as the message suggested. I got the call and was told I had to make an appointment and leave my car overnight. I told the lady it was their mistake and that I was not going to make arrangements to have someone pick me up and then leave me off. She gave no other option. Also at the bottom of the work order it is typed, "We gave you the voluntary tire registration form. You must mail the form for the registration to be valid." They gave me no such form. Looks like things have deteriorated at this shop and at Town Fair Tire overall. Last time I go there for tires!

Several times have been to Johnston R.I. store. As early as 730am. Wait to be acknowledged. Want two tires balanced 2 or 3 hrs. Need tires upon opening store, 2 or 3 hrs. Today’s day and age wait is excessive. Impossible to get a ride at times. Absolutely nil customer service. Takes at least 10 to 15 mins before they acknowledge you.

Bought tires with rims; spent over $800 more than 5 years ago with the promise of free lifetime snow changeovers and tire repair. Every year they are unable to honor this. Voiced my dissatisfaction with corporate customer service who apologized and made an appointment 2 months in advance to ensure that I have an appointment. Guess what? The night before, I call to confirm, and they have no record of the appointment that was MADE BY THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE agent. I was told they would "try and squeeze me in." As usual, I will end up paying someone else to change the tires. I could have saved the $200 I have paid for the changeover and not have so much frustration. Avoid them at all costs.

I’ve always had great experience with Town Fair Tire in Chicopee MA so I wanted to keep my business with them. Recently I bought new tires which are maaarvellous by the way. The service department especially Lamar, Table and Danny were all very respectful and helpful and willing to work with me personally and listen well to my concerns while maintaining a smile and being extremely kind and courteous the whole time of dealing with my stubbornness and pain in the butt customer I kept called myself and they all reassured me I wasn’t. In my opinion Lamar, Table and Danny all deserve a ten dollar raise each. I hope everyone has a maaarvellous day and thank you once again Lamar, Table and Danny! You all are maaarvellous! Don’t ever change your ways! Sincerely, Rach (the pain in the butt customer???)

My 21 year old daughter had a flat and called AAA to change the tire which they did and recommended Town Fair for the repair. She took it there and they couldn’t fix it so they sold her a new tire which I’m ok with. They wanted to charge her $60 to swap it with the spare that AAA put on. She said no and took the tire out to her car and jacked it up herself a put it on right in the parking lot. That had to be good advertising for them. I think they could’ve put in on for no extra charge since she just bought it there. Not a good way to get future business. I’ve had a tire taken off plugged and put back on for $20 in the past at a local garage.

I just moved to Maine and couldn't figure out why my tire warning light was coming on. So I went to put air in for the 3rd time and saw a black hard thing coming out of the tire and realized it was a screw, so I put air in the tire and proceed to go on to running my errands. I came across the Town Fair Tire in Augusta and went in to see about getting my tire repaired. While asking about repair on the tire I mentioned that I had ordered a new set of tires from Walmart. The associate mentioned they were having a sale. After a few minutes of research he was able to get me a new set of tires fully installed for less than the ones I had ordered. All of the associates I spoke with were very polite and prompt while making my order and when they did the install, which was the next day.

After getting a flat tire in the middle of New Haven, went to Derby, CT Town Fair Tire to have what I knew would be two new tires (put on rear with 2 rear tires moved to front). I was told by the Triple A mechanic who changed my flat that the alignment was definitely off in the front but that rear tires usually don't have alignment issues and looked fine. When the clerk (a cocky kid named Geno) began to tell me I'd need to align both the front and the rear, that it's "always necessary" I told him what the guy from Triple A had said. "No, no... you need to align everything to get it right." So, stupid me pays for the whole shebang (inc. $55 for the rear alignment, front is free with purchase of two tires) with an appt. set for the next day which would take about 1 1/2 hours.

Sensor light came on with old leaky tire. Would fill tire and light would go off. Bought 4 new tires at Town Fair Tire Hyannis Ma. Now sensor light stays on. Went back. Said It's my problem now. Said my sensor was old and went. So came home and Read up on sensors. It's in the valve stem. They Need to use a Toyota factory sensor or they damaged mine while changing to new tires. Called Manager when I got home. Going back Monday August 10th 2018. I got the runaround the first time back and they weren't going to fix it. See what happens Monday.

I use the TFT in Tewksbury for all of my tire needs. I put about 35000 miles on my car each year and I trust the staff here to maintain my car so as to maximize performance. Thank you to all including Tyler. You guys are great and always very fast. Again I thank you...

So I had gone to Town Fair Tire in Torrington for what I thought was a flat. Got that taken care of and went back the next day for a torque check at the 25 mile mark. That was done. Today, I went to a friend's garage to have a wheel bearing done on my Jeep on the same side as the flat I had. Town Fair Tire over torqued one of my lug nuts on my tire and now I can’t use it. I have yet to go to the store to see what they’re going to do about it, but my guess is nothing. I do know that I will NOT be going there again...

Went to Town Fair Tire in South Portland, ME. Paid for 2 new tires, and paid to have existing tires balanced. So we went on vacation, came back a week later, and one of the old tires was flat, went to change it, and the wheel was frozen to the rotor (rotor was old and quite rusty). So, how did they balance the existing wheels if they didn’t take them off, because if they took them off a week ago, it wouldn’t take a sledgehammer to free them now, I’m furious. This is not the end of this, I will be refunded fully for the work they “claimed” they did.

Made appointment with TFT on their website. Was given three choices for tires, ranging from cheap to expensive and I purchased the middle ones. Left the store and everything was fine until I drove on the highway a week or two later. My truck was vibrating between 60-75 MPH. Made another appointment to have them check to see if they were balanced properly and apparently there were. Left the store and truck was still vibrating on the highway but I was unable to get back in to TFT for 3 months.

My husband and I went to Town Fair Tire in Hanover, Ma last week to get a new tire. Unfortunately the last time I needed a tire replaced I went to Town Fair Tire and my spare/donut was never put back into my car. Of course we discovered this when we tried to change the flat. We had to leave the car jacked up in a snowbank on the side of the road and bring the flat tire/rim into the store to have a new tire put on. There was a tractor trailer truck backed into the only entrance of the store.

I called the Shrewsbury MA store on Wednesday to have a new winter package installed for Thursday afternoon - wheels, tires and sensors. I arrived 10 minutes early and was out the door 20 minutes later. Phil and his team were excellent. Good clean job, old wheel package carefully wrapped up and in the trunk. Big thumbs up!

I spent over $800.00 on a summer tire and wheel package. I was told that seasonal tire changeovers were free. When I went to have my tires swapped they told me that they wouldn't do it because I didn't buy the winter tires there. They told me to try Sears... Wow!!! My winter tires were brand new bought at Tire Rack!!! Guess what when I went to the Tire Rack Warehouse in Windsor, CT there was a Town Fair truck there picking up a load of tires. I will never go to Town Fair Tires again!!! Bait and Switch!!!

I wanted Michelin tires but was told they did not have my size but they showed me the best, better and good tires on a tablet with their discounts. The Mastercraft were the best with a price of $147 per tire, but on sale for $117. The initial entire package was over $700, but I was shocked at that price, so they cut it down to $640. I had never heard of the tires but was told they were excellent tires made by Cooper.

Beware of the liars & scammers who work @ TFT Waterbury, CT!! Purchased a set of 4 tires with warranty/65000mi & alignment cost $850… and not even a name brand tire. Tires keep going flat and my car is all over the road unable to control. Called the manager & told I needed to replace the sensors. Purchased the sensors. Waited for them to be shipped. 2 weeks later my car still driving like **, & still losing air. Finally replaced sensors & did nothing. Low pressure lights keep coming on & car unable to control. Finally took the time to bring the car back in & told them something is seriously OFF. They blamed me for the tires being worn saying I needed to have an alignment done every 3 months & that's why my tires are bad. They agreed to change 2 tires at 50% off. After 1 week the tires start with a slow leaking…

I called last Tuesday and asked for an appointment for Friday to do a changeover to put on snow studded tires I purchased here last year and was told there were no appointments this time of year. And when I went in on yesterday Friday at 7:45 am when they opened there were only four people ahead of me. I was advised that the best thing to do was leave it there and they would call me when it was ready. Well that's what I did and went next door to IHOP to have breakfast with my wife. I figured that this would easily be done by noon. So I called at 1:30 and they had not touched it and was told to call later. I called at 3:00 not done; told to call later. I called at 4:00 pm; car still in parking lot and not done. I final called at 4:35 and was told it would be next in line when they get to it. So I told the woman who answered, "No don't touch it as I have already been waiting 9 hours. I will be over to pick it up and I want my $42 back which I pre-paid."

I wish I never went back to Town Fair Tire in Norwich CT after the first time I went to my appointment for new tires to purchase. I thought I must have been a bad day and that was why this place was taking hours and hours to finish my car, plus adding charges that should be under the warranty that I purchased with my tires and every 6 months they end up telling me I need to replace my tires. Each time I walk out from my appointment after waiting for hours with no estimated wait time plus employees have attitudes if I even try to ask any question about anything.

Recently (3 months ago), I've spent over $1300 on 8 tires (for 2 cars). Well, within a month, one tire was flat - went to the store - it was determined that the air was leaking between the rim and the tire, and the stem valve was leaking too. New England salt was blamed on the first issue, do not remember what was the explanation for the second issue (I thought I paid for the valve reconditioning - there is my bill to prove it). Both issues look to me like a sloppy work.

I had my car towed to Town Fair Tire Quincy Ave Quincy Ma. because of a flat tire. When my vehicle was done the gentleman at the desk handed me my lug lock and at first I got taken back because I never gave it to them, didn't say anything at first but then my phone charger was gone. I raced back to the location, spoke with the assistant mgr. and all he did was justify everything. Unbelievable. 1st that means that the technician went through my glove box without my consent. #2 When I got there I was talking to an employee. I stepped out of my car but before I did I unplugged my charger continued talking to him as I worked my way in the location. I tried explaining this but trying to explain to a closed mind is like talking to the wall. I had no choice but to call the police and to end they paid me for my stolen charger. Never again will I visit this store.

Talk with a salesman on the phone. Tell them I have four brand new tires I need mounted and balance. "OK no PROB bring it in." I go and then they say, "OH new tires not from us we can't mount them due to ins. But we do mount USED tires." LMFAO. How does that make sense. I said before they get you in the door and try to sell you more and never go BACK. WELL I'll spread this around. Firestone IS BETTER AND MATCHES online.

Called Town Fair Tire to order tires for my daughter's car. Spoke with Robert who I gave him the car information and that I wanted Michelin X-i3 snow tires. He gave me a quote and a installation time and date. My daughter shows up and Dan the salesman said I ordered the wrong size tire and he went on to sell her a Falken tire. They just happen to be on special. I call Dan and he does not understand customer service and kept telling me I order the wrong tire when in fact Robert at their online store ordered the wrong tire. Then he went on to tell me that if I want the correct Michelin it would have cost me 17 dollars more per tire.

When I went in and purchased 4 new tires which was not easy as their credit card system charged card twice second was denied as I only had so much allotted for approval. It appears the system burped which caused quite a stir for my bank. After finally getting that corrected, was told the price match is good for 90 days. Found the same tires cheaper elsewhere and when I went back they now charged "shipping" fees for the tires so the match was not exact. Not to mention the extreme long wait was told 90 minutes it was more than 180 minutes.

Arrived at 9 for scheduled appointment for full tire service. Called ahead to check tire stock. Did not touch car for one and a half hours. Took three more hours to complete. Drove it 200 miles vibration in steering wheel 70-90 mph. Took it back with 8 am appointment they "open" at 7:45 but still were not ready? Service manager Jamie? said they only high speed balance to 70 mph? Route 93, Route 128, Route 3 routinely have travel lane above 70 mph??? 1000 bucks and the place is run like a third world country. Sorry about the one star, no option for negative five star. Will follow up with review after "rebalancing" attempt.

Went in for 4 tires on Saturday, 8/12. The person behind the counter was stressing how important it was to have a 4 wheel alignment done when putting new tires on the car. Paid the additional $49 for the 4 wheel alignment. When I picked the car up, I reviewed the alignment results. The rear did not need to be done. The alignment was fine to begin with. The front was needed, however, the front alignment is part of the free services that they provide. $645 was plenty to spend in one day, nevermind an additional $49 for a service that was need necessary.

My son has taken his car to Town Fair Tire to have 3 tires changed over the last 4 months with the last time being in April to have his front left tire replaced. Each time he has taken his car in they have charged him for an alignment, of the front and rear, because tire alignments are free with purchase. My son's car had the front left tire come off the axle last week due to a failed ball joint and arm. The front end alignment done the month prior should have been the notification from Town Fair of the problem prior to the total failure of the ball joint and arm. There is no way that Town Fair Tire could have done an alignment and not noticed the ball joint and arm were almost gone. I have copies of the paid invoices and have called the manager of the store with no response.

Want to thank Brice and Tim and the crew of Town Fair Tire in Orange. I came in with my son's car with an issue and they were very polite. Didn't take advantage of me because I was a woman. Very honest and forthcoming and I can't thank them enough for the great customer service. I will definitely be back. They were very patient and just great guys. Easy to talk to and they gave their honest opinion and just awesome customer service. They all need a pat on the back. They are so polite and great guys.

This the third time I've had my tire changed over and each time the damaged to the alloy rims has gotten worse. I let a very little go but this time it was like they took a screwdriver to the center cap and totally scraped, chipped and scratched the ** out of it. When I showed the assistant managers he shrugs his shoulders and said there was "bubbling underneath" and they had to pry off the cap. It wasn't bubbling, it was stress cracks and even if you wanted to say that on one tire (cumulative damage from three changeovers) the other three showed no such "bubbling" and suffered huge damage. The monkey that did the "service" also scratched my driver's door in two places.

On Tuesday April 4 about 2pm, I drove to Town Fair in Walpole. I reside in Norton Mass. The reason I chose Town Fair was because I purchased my four tires from them in November of 2015. I spoke to David who stated he was the acting manager. I wanted to have my flat tire fixed or replaced. He was very condescending and stated there would be a three hour wait. I told him that when I purchased my tires there was no wait. When I said I would wait he said maybe it would be longer. He then said to go to Brockton or Raynham Town stores.
