Had my son take my vehicle to get a tire that was about to blow and told him to tell them to check the other front tire to make sure it was alright as I hadn't had the chance to ck it all around but what I did see looked fine. So here's the story and you decide if you will do business with them I'm getting my money back or a better tire and my good they stole back I guarantee you and will NOT recommend or go back!!!! Same day the tires are put on one goes completely flat that night and son had to change in store parking lot with donut looked at the tire and it was the worst used tire I have EVER seen and i have bought plenty only had tread on the outter rim and the other tire they replaced my good tire with looks the same AND they charged him 70.00 35 a tire!!!!!!!!! I have never paid more than 25 for a small car used tire AND it had to be cash with no receipt offered!!!!! You have been warned California...

Terrible experience here. I went to change a flat tire to this "Cinco Tires & Auto". The owner/cashier come to me and said he didn't have one for my car, he offered me a "good used tire" for $45.00 I had no choice I told him ok. After he installed, the tire started to shut air all over the place and was ripped from the side. Clearly it was a flat tire he was offering me for $45.00 !!



So he said that was the only tire he has, but he can repair it and put it back for the same price!! Are you kidding me??!!!! I told him instead I will like my flat tire back. He got very rude because he couldn't rip-me-off $45.00 and he put it back tire. Then when he finished he told me, its $20.00 for that!!! ..... What??? I asked him $20.00 for what??? His response was "This is a business, nothing is free"



I always avoid wasting more time, so I said fine I don't have any cash, but here is my credit card. I just wanted to leave that places as soon as possible.



Well, I handed my credit card and he refused to honor my signed credit card!!!! He said unless I would present him with an "ID." Ok, good I handed him my drivers license and he said he can't accept that because it wasn't a California Driver License!!! Unbelievable!!!



Really?? did I heard right? I got enough I told him that I didn't need to show any ID at all, because I have already signed on the back of the card and he can just check my signature. (which is true according to visa policy)



I told him you can call or check visa to verify what I said. However, he said it was his business policy and tried to intimidate me by yelling at me and threatened to call the police to arrest me because I was "refusing" to pay!!!!!.



I replied, since you had my credit card & my driver license, I not refusing to pay, you are refusing to accept the payment" I told him to go ahead and call the police so this can be resolved. Then he went to his copy machine and copy my drivers license!!! I asked him what he was doing and he said that the only way to accept my card will be if he take a copy of my DL. Then he proceed charge my credit card an extra $2.00 and he said was credit card checkout fee.



After that terrible experience, I read about merchant guidelines and according to them this is a direct violation of the Visa and Master Card merchant guidelines and violate the State of California law. http://www.privacyrights.org/fs/fs15-mt.htm#2



Also I was little worried about him having a copy of my ID, but I make a report to the credit agencies and also reported to the credit card company.



IF YOU WANT TO AVOID PAYING $22.00 FOR NOTHING, HAVE YOUR IDENTITY STOLEN OR HAVE THE SAME EXPERIENCE WITH THIS DUMB GUY. DO NOT GO THERE!!!!



Remember to avoid a terrible experience with this information Cinco Tires & Auto 300 N La Brea Ave Inglewood, CA 90302 (3407) 310-671-1515

THE WORST SERVICE EVER!!! I just spoke to the owner over the phone and she was so rude I could imagine dealing with her in person. I called to ask her a question and she yelled at me, talked over me and hung up in my face. In an economy where business is hard you would think she would treat customers better. I would never recomend this place to anyone. DONT GO HERE!!!!
