Review about: National Tyres and Autocare
Tyres
Went to Weston branch due to past quality work. This time tho not the case. When I had 4 tyres fitted to my wheels when I got home I noticed damage on 3 wheels so rang the centre was told to pop in Monday to speak to the manager.
Monday, manager wasn’t happy that I’d contact customer service via email then tried to tell me the marks on my wheels are due to hitting curbs. I’d stated that one of the alloys has small markings on from a car wash incident. Now my old tyres didn’t have a mark on them from touching any curbs.
My wheels except 1 was mint! Typical got the tyre shop next door to look at my wheels (suspect pre warned of my turning up) he looked over it and pointed to the spokes having what looks like curb marks to him. Missed the part between where paint has flaked off due to poor tyre fitting.
Then the manager got me into the workshop by the tyre machine and tried to show me the tools used and a plastic guard (supposed to help protect the wheels from the head of the machine) I stated was that guard used to his reply yes… yet he wasn’t in that day. So he couldn’t confirm this. I’d pointed this out….
he flipped out and pretty much square up to me. Professional behaviour from management hey..
I’d then had a call from the area manager this morning and got the same story. Curb damage…. I’d stated if those wheels were previously damaged why wasn’t I informed before work was carried out or even pictures taken time/dated. I was at the centre waiting…
I’m an engine machinist and repairs, any vehicle before it comes in the workshop gets checked over and customer informed before vehicle work is started.. common sense if you ask me.
