Jack Furrier Tire and Auto Care – Pantano and 22nd

The Jack Furrier company was recently a huge blessing to our family. We own a van that was in need of a major repair, but we could not afford the repair. This is our only vehicle so we were really in a desperate situation. Through a friend of ours, Jack Furrier Tire and Auto and one of their employees arranged to fix our van. I highly recommend Jack Furrier if you are looking for honesty, quick resolution, and a compassionate approach.

Great service, great prices. Wait time isn’t much different than other tire service centers but they make it easy to do business with them. Only place I take my car to for tire services.

it’s been a rough week. got a flat tire in the pouring rain and had to fill it with air last weekend. didn’t have the time to take it in to get it patched up until thursday, and when i called jack furrier’s on 22^nd, they let me know that it’d be a good time to bring it by because they weren’t busy.
i brought it in, they took care of my tire and had me on my way in about half an hour. because i bought the tires from there originally i didn’t have to pay to have the flat fixed!

great job replacing 4 low profile tires on our Eclipse and a reasonable price. They had to replace 2 or 3 studs on the back left tire for some reason they were broken off. They told us the brake was bad and after a while, it did grind and wear down because we couldn’t afford to repair it but will soon. Strange how this happened after replacing the studs though. I wonder if it may have been related somehow. Btw, the only reason we came here to replace the tires is that R&G didn’t have used ones at the time and we had a bad experience going to a Discount Tire which I’ll write about from just before this

I had my tires aligned a few weeks ago at this place. They were not very friendly to start with. After they were done, on my way back home, the car was making a funny noise so I went back to see what they had done. They checked it out and said that they didn’t know what it was, that it was not their fault and could not fix it. Funny how they could not fix it without even knowing what the problem was! I won’t go there again!1‘

Well, it was a pretty crummy week in my house as far as cars went. While my dad was working on one car that was completely out of commission with a fortune in parts (and some good will from my dad on the labor), we were down to one car for a two-​working-​parents family.
So of course, the Universe being what it is, our other car goes out.
I’m no mechanic, but if you know your way around a spark plug even a little, you know when your alternator is going out. I had the battery tested, and it was fine, and on my way back home the radio goes out, then the car dies completely as I pull into my driveway.
I call around to see who can do the job, quickly and without jacking me around on price. I called Jack Furriers, their mechanic was in (it was Monday), and they had the alternator in stock. The friendly and straightforward man working the front (I can’t remember his name and it’s bugging me since he deserves to be recognized. I’ll try to remember and come back to update) stated part and labor would be about $ 350, and they could have it ready in a few hours.
I dropped it off, with a request they first double check to see if it was indeed the alternator (nothing worse than paying to fix the wrong thing). It was, and I left it there to be repaired.
As promised, it was done in a few hours. As promised, the cost was about $ 375 (the repair plus tax). I thought it was a fair price, and as far as my untrained eye goes, for quality work… that that’s whats important to me. Do a quality job, and don’t rip me off. Don’t upsell me on something else, don’t jerk me around because I’m a woman. Be honest, be ethical, and do a good job, and you’ll get my business time and time again.
Thanks Jack Furrier for helping me out in a pinch, and doing a great job while you’re at it. I will be back.
