Park Place Tire & Auto - New Orleans (LA)

5 /5 Wil Glaser: I went to Donald for an oil change and to take a look at my suspension, on a recommendation from Reddit. He is clearly about doing things right and goes the extra mile to explain/show you what that is, and his prices were reasonable. I was able to drop my car off with him, walk up to Magazine for a late lunch and a little window shopping, and walk back. Though the oil change was finished when I arrived (I think he had forgotten to call me when it was, as we had briefly discussed), he still had my car up on the lift, and showed me specifically what he noticed. We discussed how to remedy it, before I paid and departed. I fully intend to come back to have my new struts installed, front end alignment done, and new tires mounted and balanced. (Update: I dropped off the car on a Monday evening and was able to pick it up first thing on Wednesday. I actually enjoy driving my car now, for the first time since I bought it.) I saw a few reviewers say hes rude; I dont think thats really the case. I will say he does sound a bit impatient on the phone, but I understand since hes flying solo and keeps quite busy. In person, he was friendly and very easy to work with. The first time I went to him, he wasnt able to do my oil change that day (late Thursday afternoon), but he suggested a few windows for me to drop by and get it done in about 90 minutes. Its my impression that if youre polite and reasonable, hell take care of you, especially if you can effectively communicate what times work for both of you.

5 /5 bernisha lewis: I loveee Mr. Donald! I’ve been using his services for years now and I’ll ONLY go somewhere else if it’s something he can’t do. I used to live up the street from his shop, but now I’m traveling from near metarie for his services. I’ve been seeing people say he’s rude, but he’s just busy and has a lot to do lol. Very sweet guy. He’s looked out for me so many times. Whenever he sees me he says “hey my girl whatcha need”. I recommend him to everyone, he’s fair with his prices and just an overall good guy. He might now know my name, but he for sure knows my car!

5 /5 chris mcdaniel: Replaced all four of my tires, with balance and alignment. The owner is passionate about finding the problem and takes a lot of pride in his work. That type of personality is always going to give you their best effort. This is now my go-to auto repair shop in NOLA.

1 /5 Don Skinko: Showed up at 6:45 with a tire emergency. Their website says they are open til 7. No one was there and no answer on the phone. People are counting on you to be open the hours that you post. Shows they really don’t care about anything but themselves it seems.

1 /5 Phillip Perez: I showed up to park place at 6:10 to hopefully get some air in my tires and get one checked. Google said they closed at 7pm so i didnt see an issue. I asked the employee on duty to add some air and check 1 tire, he said come back in 2 weeks im only one man working. I said well it says you close at 7 and you only have one car your putting air in. Can you just add some air? He refused and told me to come back in 2 weeks. Poor and lazy service. Be better or change your times online.
