I needed a winter tire/summer tire swap. They said I needed a wheel alignment, without presenting any evidence of tire wear or measurements. This is on a car with 10, 000 km. This is a well known attempt to take advantage of consumers who know little about tires or cars. The approach is well documented on YouTube etc. I expect better from a nation-wide company. Caveat emptor.

We made an appointment for today (Jan 10) to complete the installation at the Canadian Tire store in Simcoe. Again, they quoted a charge of $60.00 to install the back up camera...

Dear Canadian Tire Ombudsman, On Saturday, January 8th at approximately 7pm I went to the Canadian Tire Store located at 7878 120st, Surrey BC. I had purchased the Type A Freestanding Closet [36"x20"x68" barcode [protected]] in August 2020.

I bought a Amazon tablet for my son for Christmas, I didn't realize you couldn't download stuff from Google Play. So I took it back not having my receipt. I had said that I didn't want the return to run out and asked if I can return it. So they said that they couldn't give me cash back and all they could do is give me a gift card. I hummed and hawed. Then...

Canadian Tire Difficulty trying to get access to your triangle bill online

If your a Canadian tire Triangle credit card holder and want access to your online account it will be by far a extremely frustrating experience just to sign up for this service so I say let them send your a PAPER BILL IN THE SNAIL MAIL UNTILL THE END OF OF TIME because that will be the only way you will have any access your your billing account.

Oh just try to sign up its a completely waste of time you try to contact customer serve by phone well expect to wait more than two hours for your call to be answered because its there just isn't a 24/7 service line to make contact with any physical live person just a goddam useless am answering machine sending you chasing tails.

You think that you are signing up but its for their online purchases which of course may not interest you you want access to your billing account it will be a chore in and a half unlike all other credit card companies than actually have 24/7 CUSTOMER SUPPORT but not a Canadian Tire there still operating with the matrix of 1940

Mechanic not qualified to install a simple thermostat after looking at car for 2 hours and redlining RPMs straight for 20 minutes, blowing out the piston rings. Mechanic did not speak English or chose not to. Gongshow. Incompetent. Useless. Service manager Tony should be a politician not a garage manager... 'blah, blah, blah'... All day long, yielding zero...

I was in to Cdn Tire Truro N.S. today to buy a tarp. when I went to the checkout I noticed that the cashier was trying to tend to a cut finger. I told her she should grab a bandaid and I would wait as I was not in a hurry. She said she could not find one and I suggested to go to the service/return desk. She said she already had and they did not have any...

Canadian Tire Tire warranty does not apply if i will not have all four suspension assembly replaced even though i don't have any problem with those suspensions

I bought all 4 tires at Canadian Tire Millwoods branch Edmonton Alberta and had them installed at the same branch 3 years ago on my 2006 Toyota Sequoia. Some 3 weeks ago, i noticed that the front driver's tire deflates about 3 psi each day and i can hear growling sound on that same tire at a speed of 50 to 80 km/hr. Since i know that it has 6 year warranty, i got my vehicle in their shop for inspection. After a few hours, the mechanic called me up and told me that the tires must be replaced because they are cupped. When i reminded him that it still has the warranty, he paused for about a minute to talk to his manager, when he came back he told me that they will not replace the tires if i won't have all 4 suspension assembly replaced, which will cost me more than $3, 500 which he said includes other issues that my vehicle has. But the truth is, i really don't have any other issue on my Sequoia other than the tires. To cut the story short, i just end up getting my Sequoia back because i don't have that amount to spend. They had me paid $73 for the inspection without even fixing the deflating problem of the tire. i now inflate my tire every other day, and my Sequoia is still my daily driver. i'm saving right now to have those tires replaced by costco.

Canadian Tire Abuse received by a seller

My wife and I went to the the Canadian Tire store in Shawenesy, Calgary, to buy a Dyson vacumm on Dec 17. The item was not on the shelves as indicated inthe web page for that store, so we ask for help to a rep. The rep understood that I was not using the mask correctly and asked me to put the mask in certain way which I did. She went for the vacumm to the warehouse and whe she came back, she didn't gave us the item for payment, she insisted with the mask again and force us to go to the cashier in a very bad way. I have the righ to ask for her vaccianation prove and I did so, but she refused. Then a person who did not identify himself and kicked me off the store in a brutal way without allowing me to express my disagreement with the awgly and disrespectful way that the seller treated my wife and me.
I understand that these knd of individual are used to treat people that way and probably Canadian Tire will do nothing to recyify his attitude, but I'd like to settle my complain. Thank you for your attention. Ezequiel Martinez. ezequiel. e. [protected]@gmail.com

Canadian Tire Spend $200 & get $40 rewards back... NOT!

Hello. CanTire occasionally have deals such as spend $200 and get $40 back in CT money. This is 200 before taxes & environmental fees. However, beware that if you pay using some of your account's CT money (& the balance paid by cash or credit card is less than the 200) then CT will DENY crediting you that $40. This happened 2 days ago, cybermonday

Desired outcome: Not allowing CT $'s is a fine print clawback that should be changed

Canadian Tire poor service

Racco Parkway Mechanic not able to fix noise coming from my car after bringing the car to them five times. Paid good money for parts that I probably didn't need as mechanic diagnosed the problem. New parts but still had the same problem. Recorded the noise for the mechanic but still no resolution. Today found a greasy rag that was left in the engine, was fished out with a stick and returned to the store. Apologizes from weekend Manager. Not acceptable service. Now I have to find another Mechanic as I will not be returning to Racco Parkway Canadian Tire.

Desired outcome: Better Trained Mechanic
