              I was at Geralds Tires #5 on Rivers Ave to repair a slow leak in the left rear tire of my vehicle on 11/9/2023. During the "repair" the store damaged the left rear (Drivers Side) tire of my vehicle. I left a review on ****** and was instructed to contact Missy D**** by the assistant manager Patrick. I did on 11/10, sent her photos of the damaged rim and she said she would process the repair. Since then I have tried to get an update from Missy on 11/14 and 11/16 and have not have received any update. I wish to have my rim repaired and returned to "pre Geralds" condition.

              Had an appointment set at 12 by the tire manager. Arrived 15 minutes early and after an hour I walk outside to see my truck still setting in the parking lot. I asked what was going on and was told they were waiting on the arrival of the tires. I asked to speak to the manager (which was a mistake) this genius tried to lie and tell me he had told me it would be around 1 for my tires. 2 major issues with the managers position. 1- he personally set the appointment for 12 2- he didn't speak to me, it was all through email so i have documentation that he didn't say 1 o'clock. They never once offered an apology, instead took issue that it upset me that this was piss poor service! You have been warned! go elsewhere for good service!!!
