Took my car there for timing belt kit replacement .Next day when I picked it up the heat was not working I called them they told me to bring it back .Then they said that the water pump that I provided was bad told me that I needed to replace it again and everything will be fine .They charged me to replace the water pump .When I picked it up I heard a noise coming out from the engine.I took it to Honda Dealer for diagnostic Honda said that I needed a new engine because it had misfire and they found ante freezer everywhere they said they don’t know what this other people did .I took it back to Firestone for the Third time The owner told me to leave the car few hours later called me to come in to tell me that the engine was bad and other bunch of excuses .He said that they didn’t work on the engine and didn’t take responsibility at all.For what I know the timing belt and the components make the engine works .I end up expending 10k for a new engine .Never going back there not even for oil change ...
I’ve being going to Firestone since I got my first car 16 years ago. Jimmy and his staff are extremely professional, honest, kind and genuinely care for each customer with integrity!! I highly recommend Firestone to everyone for a big or small repair.. they do it all here!! Thank you Jimmy for your years of service, and for being someone I can always count on!! 😊
The owner Jim is phenomenal. Its rare you find a mechanic that has good character and integrity. I have been going to him for the past three years and he has always been fair and never tried to run game. I decided to come here to write a review after my most recent mechanical issue. He reviewed with me possibilites of resolving the issues before deciding to spend a ton of money. It was encouraging to read reviews that share the same sentiment.
Ive been going to this place for about 15 years and they are so dependable! There is always the same guy at the front desk and he is the truth! I believe he is the owner!! Never! Never! Has he ever over charged me or pushed me to do work that wasnt needed to be done! Amazing work ethics! This guy respects his clients!
Terrible place. They put dirty oil when I did oil change. It took them just 5 mins and after I was like how come and the guy said he’s done. I check the oil level and I saw dirty oil on the oil metal level check. DON’T GO THERE EVER. When you go there first they will do okay just to deceive you then after they try to destroy your car.
Was referred by my sister Cajuste - well what a welcome surprise to find a mechanic thats as honest as Jimmy. Came in with a new used car, not only did he take care of what I came in for he did a complete inspection, topped up all the fluids, told me what services needed to be performed in the future and also prioritized them for me so I can manage getting this car in perfect running condition.
Jimmy and his team are very professional, personable, and dedicated to their work and customers. My family and I have been going to Central Islip Firestone for 25 years, and they never disappoint. Many customers whom I have met over the years, while waiting while our cars were being tended to, have also been going to CI Firestone for decades. That tells you a lot about the care put into each and every vehicle, and CI Firestones commitment to each vehicles owners.
I have been visiting Firestone for over 5 years now. Jimmy has been very helpful with all my repairs and maintenance needs.Give this firestone a try and youll be surprised by the amazing service and cost advantage it offers.Disclaimer : I am no way related to Firestone, just a happy customer, putting a vote of approval.
Criminals. My mother went got an oil change and they drained the coolant. When she went back to get it rectified they BROKE THE CONTAINER. HOW the hell do you do that? Then tried to charge her $500 to fix it. Really? Is that how it works? And to make sure she has no evidence of going there they took her receipt. Truly disgusting and CRIMINAL.

2022-03-31I went there to get an oil change, it was fast but I did not like the no phone policy. Makes you feel restricted as if you were at a library.

2022-06-25My mother had her car inspected on May 29 and was wondering why there was a CONSTANT smell of gasoline ever since. She didn’t think too much of it since there were no warning symbols lighting up on her dashboard. However, when I was in the car with her, I couldn’t ignore the smell and checked under the hood today. Turns out there was a huge gas leak under the hood because the engine oil cap was NOT securely closed! I can’t believe Firestone made this huge oversight. Stay away and go elsewhere!

2022-05-03Go here with caution.. went in with a clanking noise coming from my right front tire area. Was told it was one thing(even though I thought it was something else), got it fixed, and 3 days later the noise came back and once I checked a coil over spring was broken. Took it to another Firestone so they can check it out (this was closed) and they told me they could not find this Firestone in their system and was an independent store, not part of the Firestone franchise. (No warranty at other Firestone if you go here).

2021-07-14My family has been going to Jimmy and his crew for decades and trust him with all of our auto mechanic needs. I trust his opinion and that of his team, and know that they work with integrity. Inspections & oil changes are always an in-and-out experience. Thank you to all at the Central Islip Firestone for your work!

2021-07-29I have been using Jim as my mechanic since the early 90s. He never over charges, never says your car needs something when it doesnt. Oil changes are fast, tires are very reasonable. Does ny inspections. Brakes, belts, pulleys. Never an issue.
