Allen Tire Company

Every so often I'd hit a nail on the road and need a fix. The last time I hit nail I brought my car and mentioned to the employee I knew where the nail was and circled it with chalk, on the front left side. Also asked if they could please check the other tires because sometimes I find more than one nail. They told me they checked them all and found only the one, and off I went. While driving around at night I noticed the tire pressure light came on again. I wasn't too surprised, I didn't really believe the employees checked the tires thoroughly. I was leaving Albertsons at around 10pm and when I got to my car, the front left tire that was supposedly fixed was flat. It was extremely dark in the parking lot and I tried changing the tire with the scissor jack and spare in my trunk. I removed the the flat tire that was "fixed" that morning and sure enough, found a second nail. While I was trying to fix my new flat tire that Allen Tires supposedly checked in the morning, my car slipped off the scissor jack and slammed onto the pavement. I drove home hearing and feeling this horrible grinding sound from my car. The next morning I went back to Allen Tires in Downey and told them what happened. I believe the employee who failed to check my tires properly was named Nathaniel. As I heard another employee say 'Nathaniel didn't check again' after I told the person at the front desk what happened. It's been a couple of months and my car noticeably pulls to the left now. All from that accident caused by employee negligence. So let this story be a WARNING. DO NOT TRUST THE EMPLOYEES TO ACTUALLY CHECK YOUR TIRES. You need to do the inspecting on your own or you'll end up with an extremely expensive problem like I now have.

Hello, I worked with Mike, Downey site. I brought my Classic 1986 Cj7 JEEP to him for repair / replacement of the power steering pump - do to being a Classic JEEP - Mike had to special order all needed parts - the pump on my JEEP was the ORIGINAL from 1986!!!! Fitting was rusted on, Mike had to have his staff SOAK the fitting in order to remove and replace!!!! I cannot say enough about how happy I am with Mike and this Allen Tire location!!!! My JEEP is totally OPEN, I ride with the "short doors" on so extremely venerable!!! I requested he keep my JEEP INSIDE to protect from being stolen and Mike did!!!! Handled my Classic JEEP with exceptional care!!!! Repairs done in a timely manner!!!!! EXCELLENT SERVICE!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this shop!!!!! I will be back!!!! Cheryl Lomonaco

I had a blow out on the freeway and had to get towed in I had called the shop while I was waiting for the tow. the tires they had on hand were a bit out of my price range so the guy worked his butt off to get me a set in my budget. When the tow truck was dropping me off one of the guys was pulling in with my tires. Quick, efficient, helpful, and just all around great guys. Thanks again guys

I showed up there randomly 2 hours before close , I planned on going to a tire shop that was accross the street but found out it went out of business 1 year ago, so I popped in on Allen because I needed my new tires put on that day, even though it was close to close and they were undermaned that day they took care of me and made my experience great, the manager Mike gave me the best price he could due to I didn't plan on spending so much and didn't exactly have the normal.price on me . I was accomidated, he was very gracious about my situation and Gonzalo who did the job did everything by the book and even made sure my tires were torqued properly which I find is not industry standard anymore. My alignment seems to be dialed in as well. I'm extremely satisfied with my experience and would recommend to a friend.

The staff, especially the manager at Allen Tires Downey are top notch. His workers know what they’re doing and take every job seriously. I recently had two tires replaced, and the manager made the process extremely easy and I was back on the road within a few hours.
