  Been coming here for years. Super reliable, very nice guys, never try to upsell me on anything, and price is always reasonable. I recently thought something was wrong with car and they checked the whole system free of charge. Will continue coming here as long as I live in Chicago!

  Friendly staff, very accommodating, very helpful. My car’s wheel popped off on the road and Robert Montgomery kept me informed on what was going on with my car and helped me out with a payment plan. Highly recommended!! Can’t go wrong with good service that’s willing to work with you!!

  Got a screw in my tire and wanted to get it patched. Brought it to two other shops that told me it couldn’t be done and I needed to buy a new one. My third attempt I brought it to Car-X Tire & Auto in Lincoln Park and Rob got me in right away, patched immediately and I was on my way. It’s hard to find a reliable and honest mechanic and this is where I will be bringing my car in the future. Thank you Rob and team!

  Being in Chicago for a short while now, it was time to focus on switching my out of state plates, tags, and other information over since they have all expired! Once everything was finalized at the DMV no one was available to help get the old plates off to install the new ones! I did not have a screwdriver in the to do it myself! So as I am driving, I had came across an AutoZone. One that I had stopped at plenty of times before for various products, to ask questions, and for help! Today, it was for help. Unfortunately, the store manager, who usually assists me was away, so the employee chose to make it a LAZY DAY! Each one had an excuse not to help so I left disappointed! I continued on my day of running errands and by 4:15pm I was determined to find help to avoid getting a ticket! I drove straight down Ashland Avenue seeking some sort of auto business that "appeared" helpful. I came across Car-X and drove into their parking lot. The guy was wrapping things up with the only lady in front of me! He had politely looked up and acknowledged me, he had greeted me with a pleasant smile, and got back to finishing up the work in his computer for the lady in front! Once he was done I had explained my situation and he quickly grabbed a large screwdriver and in seconds did the swap!!! I was standing there in the cold in total amazement!!! Something so simple, yet none of the guys from the DMV, to Autozone, nor the ones I had asked in between as I was running my errands... None was able to remove the old plate, but Car-X did!!! Little does he know, he just won me as a customer for his establishment! I will be back to bring my business to him for more great customer service and for all my car servicing and tire replacements too!

  Id like to recommend this place for its excellent service. The Asst. Mgr. Robert fit me into their schedule on same day notice for a Full Synthetic Oil Change. He was kind and courteous and I ALWAYS appreciate good customer care, which is something that isn't easy to find these days, unfortunately. I'll be coming back, thanks again Robert and your mechanic for taking care of me.
