I went here trying to get my tire problems fixed after going to a different shop to get my TPMS sensors fixed. I don't know what they did at the last shop but now my car veers heavily to the right now & they had over inflated my tires. I go to Willie's explaining what happened & what it's doing now. The first thing he does, adds MORE air into my tires without even checking the PSI that they were already at after I had fixed it from previously. Still doesn't check the PSI after he added air in. He didn't even test drive it first to see what I was experiencing & then had the gall to tell that I'm wrong & he's right & he fixed it. I leave & not even a full minute later, I had to pull over because my tires felt so incredibly off. When I checked my PSI, the front left was sitting at 46 PSI & the the front right was sitting at 55 PSI. My tires are rated for 32 in the front & 30 in the back. I will never go back here nor will I ever recommend this shop to anyone.

I had a flat while I was getting a smog check next door. The sign that said, "Flat tire". He would not fix my flat. I purchased my tires last year. He said my tire was no good, I would need a new tire. I refused to purchase a new tire. He put air in my tire, and I drove to East L.A to patch my tire.

Willie is a great guy. He was honest and very helpful. I worked at a dealership for many years and know when someone is honest about service and pricing. Do yourself a favor and use Willie's!

Willies has a small shop, but a very big heart! Very one on one customer service!! Willie was great at getting may car in the shop and really helpful in fixing/aligning my Ford Explorer. Before you go anywhere else give him a visit, you won't regret. Thanks so much!

I recently took my car to have all the shocks on my car replaced. I had bought my car used so I wanted to replace what needed to be done. Apparently who ever owned before did a mickey mouse repair one of them so he was unable to remove of of them. But he took the time and effort to get that thing off. So my car is now fixed the way it was suppose to be done. Thank you Willie. I think he deserves a shout out. It just seems that mechanics nowadays just care about $ instead of giving good customer service. Willie is the rare find where he went farr and beyond comlletr the job. Thank you Willie. I will recommend him to anyone who needs shocks and tires locally.

Great customer service. Ask why I wanted a wheel alignment done to the car. I said it was in an accident and now wheel steer to the left. He then explain what he could fix and what he couldn't fix. I went ahead with the alignment, because he charged nearly half the price compare to the alignment place on Garvey. He was able to correct the steering issue in 10 minutes.

Such a disappointment. I always pass here bc it's by my way to work, I decided to stop bc I figured I had a nail on my tire since the light came on, as soon as I got off from my car the man looked annoyed/mad etc. I told him my light was on and I wanted to see if I had a nail on my tire, he immediately said it wasn't a nail that it was bc my tire is old and used so I needed a new tire. He didn't even bother to check if I had a nail he just looked at it and assumed and told me if I wanted a price on a new tire. When I said no bc I would want to see if it's a nail and if it is I would want to patch it instead he said "No, take it elsewhere" and turned around mad. with that nasty condescending attitude I rather take my business elsewhere. Which I did and it turned out that there WAS a small nail on my tire. Do not recommend!

To start I was having a bad day when I got here I had spoken to the gentleman a couple of days before about an alignment for my car he said I could come in on Saturday when he opens at 8:30 so I did. The gentleman that works there made my day. He was very nice and professional. He took care of me quickly. I highly recommend Willies. 👍

Great spot with very fair rates. I got inner and outer driver side tie rods installed, plus 4 wheel alignment for $210 where everyone else wanted $400+ for the same job. Mild mannered and easy going, Willie is a professional that I would definitely trust with my car again

I had to repair a flat tire. I had an extra tire my neighbor gave exact same size but Mr Willie sweetly suggested to get a new tire or he can replace it but no guarantee. I chose to buy a new tire. He was efficient. I’ll come back to daddy again.

I found this hidden gem because most stores close on Thanksgiving night. He offers professional wheel alignment at a reasonable price. He is really good and makes my car run smoothly.

If you have a Tesla don't come here. This guy either hates Teslas or charges nearly double just because you have a Tesla. I came for a simple tire rotation and asked for the price which was 30. When he saw that I had a Tesla he changed it to 50. I thought he was joking and when I saw that he was serious I said no thanks. It's a tire rotation, you jack up the car and do a simple swap. Not like I need special air or you need special tools. In the end it's still the same as a regular car. Found a place down the street that did it for cheaper.

Come to Willie's for an accurate and fast alignment done at a reasonable and competitive price. I was driving around town searching for an alignment service center until I stumbled upon Willie's great shop. Previously I asked for an opinion at Tire Central but they required a 3 hour wait to be serviced; do not go to Tire Central. I came to Willie's and my 2000 Avalon was repaired and the steering was straight as the first day it left the Toyota dealership. If there's no other customers ahead of you, Willie can get you in and out within approximately 30 minutes or less. Just make sure your suspension does not have any heavy damage before coming. Credit cards accepted but cash preferred. For all your wheel and alignment needs; Willie's is probably one of the best in East LA I've seen.

I have a 1984 Toyota Pick up, I needed an alignment really bad. Every place I called gave me the same answer. You gotta bring it in and we will let you know if we can do the job. Except for Willie's, he asked if I had replaced any suspension parts I told him yes, he told me he didn't want to do my alignment if I was still going to doing work on the suspension on my truck because it was taking my money for nothing. No one is that honest any more. He did the job and it has been great. Definitely recommend to everyone. He was also less expensive then everyone else at least by $30.

This place is family owned and operated by a expert who is friendly and shows you exactly what is wrong with your car, or what is not wrong. He took the time to show me my worn brake pads (versus a new one) and to show me the quality parts he uses-- which of course I googled to confirm. They offer free rotation with purchase of tires. Support the small business owner and go to Willies for your tire, brake and other wheel needs. Not to mention you are in and out fast.

Willie is a hardworking and honest man. Not only did he patch my tire, but he also found a second nail and removed it. He told me the second one didn’t require a patch, which shows his honesty. Not many businesses operate with that level of integrity, and I truly respect that.

Found this shop on yelp after my tire completely deflated and wouldn’t hold any air. He was very quick and professional didn’t replace tire just had a bad valve which he replaced with no problem and at a very reasonable price. Would definitely recommend and come back. He’s earned my business for sure!

Willie's Tires & Alignment This is my 3rd time. I was here Before Covid. however, I spoke with the shop owner beforehand and received all the prices based on my vehicle information. However, when I arrived, he spoke differently and began adding extra charges for other reasons. He told me I could leave if I didn’t like it and said it wasn’t a big deal. I replied, “If it’s not a big deal, just go ahead and do it.” Once the work was completed, he still charged me. He made adjustments after addressing the problem and finally said, “I made adjustments because I know people like you. Some how. His behavior felt unprofessional and unnecessary today. Still he is good mechanic.
