If any business deserves a zero star rating for sales and customer service, it's this one. I came in earlier today for an emissions test, and was "greeted" by a grumpy old fart with all the heft of Santa Claus, but none of his jolly attitude. While waiting, I asked some questions about having work done on my truck, like going up a tire size or running spacers. Given a lobby decked out with all things motorsport, and given that I'm in the market for some upgrades that would be fitting for a tire shop like this, I figured it would be good conversation. I figured wrong. The bargain-brand Rodney Dangerfield behind the front desk wanted nothing to do with me or my business. I asked again about having some stripped bolts removed, figuring it would be convenient to do with the truck still inside the garage and no customers waiting, and would be an easy couple bucks for them, but nope - wouldn't even take a look, and rudely declined. Asked one more question on my way out (this time about performance exhaust and passing emissions), and before I could even finish my sentence, the big cheese at the front desk interrupts me and tells me in no uncertain terms that "they don't do that here" (not what I was asking) and that he could apparently be "put in jail" for... talking about it? (...what?

I've been a loyal customer with them for years, even with their pricey repairs, spending thousands of dollars on repairs. This most recent visit will be the last, however. Do not let them order parts for you if you can help it. They will charge significantly more for parts than you can find on your own. I saved $600 on two parts by going to AutoZone. Caution: if there is a subsequent problem, they'll be quick to blame the customer-bought part, not their work. They do not waive the $95 diagnostic fee for a Service Engine light, even if you have the associated repair done because they "spend the time" to hook it up to the hand-held code reader. I already had the code read for free at AutoZone, but Goodyear doesn't make money on that so they run the test anyway. I did need them to order two parts for me. They didn't order one of the parts that I needed ahead of time (the other wasn't planned for) and had to leave the car overnight to wait for both parts. They knew what part I'd need since they did a quote for me prior to the appointment, but they didn't plan ahead. Lastly, their mechanics installed one of my tires backwards. The tires are omni-directional, and they screwed up the installation. I noticed when I got home after double-checking their work-- Good thing I did. The place that has the word "TIRE" in their name doesn't put on TIRES correctly. They tell me how valuable their time is, but mine is apparently worthless to them. They couldn't care less that I'm not returning. Save time, money and aggravation by going somewhere else. Update: the check engine light came on after the repair. I was told by the guy who always works the front desk that I'd have to wait a week to have it looked at and pointed out that they'd have to charge me again for a diagnostic test, especially because I bought my own part for the repair. After showing up anyway, one of their mechanics, who does good work and is the shop's only redeeming quality, took care of it right away. It took 5 minutes.

I highly recommend everyone use this shop (especially females) I completely trust them with any vehicle for any reason. Ron (the owner) and his employees are extremely lovely individuals. I am a female who has very little knowledge of vehicles and it is so easy to be taken advantage of in this industry and have never felt that way here at all. I actually feel they have gone above and beyond any mechanic shops duty In helping me whenever & however they can. They shoot it straight and always make me feel comfortable with my decisions. They are kind, compassionate and extremely knowledgable in what they do. Central Ct Tire will always be on my list of wonderful mechanic shops. Thanks for always being so wonderful guys! ❤️

I'm new to CT and it has been a struggle to find a trustworthy mechanic that won't try and rip me off. They were knowledgeable and kind. And I must say their customer service is excellent. Very friendly and trustworthy people. They also finished my car pretty fast. And if you live in the area, they will offer transportation if you don't have anyone to follow you to drop your car off.

David Voisine

Highly Recommend these guys. Great service and communication. I don't feel safe or trust many mechanics with my vehicles and I trust these guys 100%. I've only had my vehicles worked on three times, one by a trustworthy mechanic in Maine, and twice by these guys. I'll be coming back here for sure.

Raquel Palen
