Canadian Tire Auto center london on horton - service & battery sold

From misdiagnosing a major safety issue and sending us driving on the highway with a tire that was about to fall off, endangering our lives & the lives of others, to selling product with warranty that they do not honor, to straight up being lied to even with corporate on the line the London Auto Center on Horton is a nightmare to deal with.

These issues began in June 2021 and are ongoing today, Feb 15 2022.

A complaint was filed by phone to corporate & by email to corporate and a complaint to the Better Business Bureau has been submitted.

Desired outcome: You need to honor the warranty on the battery that we purchased and replace it with a new one that works and holds power OR refund my $$ so I can purchase one elsewhere.

Canadian Tire Office chair Product #[protected]

Bought this chair on 13th October 2020 and its broken in half. Tried reaching customer services at the store but they would intentionally hang up the phone and are not helping. Not sure where to take it from here. I have attached the picture of the chair. I paid the total of $146.89 for the chair. Never used roughly as you can see the pictures.

Desired outcome: Refund or exchange

Canadian Tire bag check

I have severe rheumatoid arthritis and brought an empty bag to carry the one item I was there for - a new humidifier. I was made to check the bag at customer service and after purchasing my humidifier...was made to stand in line to collect my empty bag. Do you not think that's taking the thing too far? Jiminy Cricket! This was the Cdn Tire in Oshaws on Gibb St.

Canadian Tire Refused service

The canadian tire store in Glace Bay Cape Breton, nova scotia treated me with disrespect and illegally refused to serve me.

I refused to wear a mask as is my right under the charter of rights and freedomsof Canada. I was asked to leave even though I had products ready to purchase.

I believe the manager or assistant manager confronted me.

I left without incident but find the service discriminatory and illegal.

Desired outcome: I want an apology and compensation.

Canadian Tire Automotive Service

A few weeks ago my daughter had my car towed to Canadian Tire because it would not start. Canadian Tire contacted me directly and advised that it needed a new starter. I advised to go ahead and proceed with the work. Once they had completed the installation of the starter they advised me that during the work the FRM needed to be replaced. This is a module that controls the lights and windows in the car and it was something that they could not fix. The car was not drive able because it had no signal lights and other lights were not working. I then had to have the car towed from Kingston to Oshawa to my local mechanic who was able to fix the FMR module and have it reprogrammed. The total cost $1379.73 to have this fixed on top of the $800 I paid CT for the new starter. My mechanic indicated to me that installing a starter should not affect the FMR module. I am looking to be reimbursed for the cost in the amount of $1379.73. In no way should a car leave a garage worse off then when it was brought in to be fixed.

Desired outcome: I am looking for reimbursement of $1379.73 for the cost to fix the car once it left the CT garage. I look forward to a response.

Hello. Today I went to shop at your Canadian tire store in Yarmouth Nova Scotia. I have spent 10's of thousands of dollars at your stores in my lifetime. I was told at the door I had to have a mask on. Since you know that his is not a law and will not hold up in court I refused. They refused me service. The young man guarding the door was in my personal...

Canadian Tire Schlage entry door set

I purchased a home November 1, 2021, purchased Schlage front door lock set November 2, 2021 and had installed by locksmith. Latch did not work in January 2022... I stuffed opening for latch so it would not catch. I am not living here we are renovating before moving in.

When returning home Feb. 3, 2022, the paper must have dislodged I was locked out of house.. there is not backyard or other entry as I was not given keys for entry door through garage.

I had to smash lock off in the garage entry door to get access to the house.

I am asking to return this Lock set to Canadian Tire for a refund, I have no desire to continue to use this item and the internet lists several stories of people having latch problems from this company. I have the bill, from Canadian Tire in Elliot Lake... but I reside in Wasaga Beach Ontario. until mid May.

Desired outcome: I want to return item to the store for a full refund..I can send photos by text [protected] [protected]@yahoo.ca I have receipt

Canadian Tire Maximum cordless drill

Purchased the Maximum drill / impact drill set 3 years ago at Canadian Tire. I have limited use of the cordless drill (serial number 054 1349 8) for light duty home projects. Suddenly from what I can tell the chuck is not working. When under just light pressure the chuck can't take it. I can easily turn the chuck by hand. Was very pleased with the drill until now. Is there anything I can do about it?

Desired outcome: A replacement would be good

Canadian Tire Customer service

I went to my local Canadian Tire to buy a coupling for my dishwasher. I approached the service desk in the appropriate area of the store where a lady was working. She looked up at me and without a word of greeting or anything at all she turned and walked away. This is an example of exactly how not to treat a customer. After that I spent 15 minutes searching for the part I wanted and she came and went from the zone several times without acknowledging my presence, even when I made it clear I needed help. Thanks for 40 plus years of service, but when I experience this level of service, I am done with that store. Thanks for helping all of us to stop buying local and do it online due to the lousy customer service provided these days.

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 bought a wireless back up camera as a Christmas present for my husband from Canadian Tire in Simcoe on Dec 9. We were quoted $60.00 for them to install it at the time of purchase. 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...

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
