The single star pertains to tires only. I have never had an experience I would want to rate above this. I have purchased multiple sets of tires from various Costco stores and have always found my BP rising. While they offer free flat repair and balance.... they can t do it on a walk-in basis. Have a slow leak in the tire? don t think you can stop by and have it addressed in short order. I currently have a slow leak in a tire. Showed up at 10AM at the 4th Ave S store. Told I d have to leave the car for 8 hours. How is this convenient? What if I was traveling, which I frequently do for work, and needed to get back on the road? If you don t have time to leave your car, or put the spare on so you can leave it to be repaired at their leisure, the hassle isn t worth it. If you take into account what your time is worth, going someplace like Les Schwab who offers everything Costco does including free rotation, I don t think I will advocate buying tires from Costco. The one time I needed a leak fixed, they weren t able to help in short order. If you travel around, your definitely better off with a different national chain who will get you back on the road in less than 8 hours.
