About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a little boy walked into Firestone with his mom's shopping bags. As he approached the waiting area, he stopped abruptly and pointed excitedly at something on the floor. 'Mommy!' he exclaimed, 'look what I found!' No one else seemed to notice it, but from that day on, whenever customers came in, they would pause for a moment before continuing their business. Finally, someone asked the curious kid what he had found. With a big smile, he replied, ‘It’s a quarter, Mommy!’ And ever since then, every customer who entered Firestone would bend down to check if there was indeed another shiny coin waiting for them. It became part of the fun and mystery of getting your car serviced.

2. Late one night, an employee heard a strange humming sound coming from under the hood of a parked car. Curious but cautious, he peered inside and found nothing out of the ordinary—until he noticed tiny headlights glowing in the engine. The employee leaned closer, and suddenly the headlights blinked twice. Startled, he jumped back, only to realize it was just the reflection of his own glasses on the oil dipstick. He laughed at himself, shook his head, and went back to work—swearing never again to investigate mysterious noises after hours. The next day, a delivery driver teased him about seeing ‘little green men’ in the workshop.

3. A delivery driver dropped off some packages late one afternoon and noticed something odd in the back of his truck—a small, rusty keyring shaped like a tire. Curious, he brought it inside, only to discover that everyone in the waiting area seemed transfixed by it too. The curious keyring turned out to be an old promotional item from a local tire festival. Soon enough, everyone realized they were staring at nothing more than a quirky souvenir. The delivery driver laughed it off as just another day at Firestone, while a regular commented jokingly, ‘Guess tires really do attract attention!’

4. At midnight, a mechanic cleaning up after hours found a mysterious note taped inside every tire: ‘Your wheels are aligned for good luck.’ Confused and intrigued, he showed the note to his co-workers. Over time, it became a fun tradition—everyone started leaving tiny tokens in each other’s tires: lucky charms, mini flags, even small notes wishing good fortune. Soon enough, word spread, and customers began asking if their tires were 'aligned for good luck.' A delivery driver even left a little toy dinosaur in one of the mechanics’ tires as thanks for always fixing his truck quickly. Now, late at night, when everything else is quiet, you can still hear laughter coming from Firestone's workshop—where good humor and wheel alignments go hand in hand.
