DON C.

I've been coming here for years....back in the day before the gentrification.....the fancy neighborhood names of NOMA, SoFLo, Union Market, etc...when it was just known as "OLD CITY" and straight-up "HOOD!" Mac's Tire Service is beyond exceptional and a unique small business that is still standing in the midst of so much change in this neighborhood. These folks are service oriented and get the job done fast.... with little to no waiting time or hassle. The most wait that you would probably experience is more than likely due to the line of cars waiting to be serviced. But once you're inside, you're taken care of in no time at all. If one is looking for quick, efficient and competent service for all your tire needs....tire plugs, wheel/rim issues, in need of new or replacement tires.....this is the place to go! They have new and used tires to bail you out when in need of damage to your tire from these rough DC streets, curves and land mines of potholes everywhere in the city! I came here after getting a screw in my fairly new tire that I just brought from Costco. After receiving a low pressure signal from my car, I had a matter of minutes before my new tire was about to be damaged from riding on a flat. Thanks to Max tire being open 24/7, I was able to get my tire repaired and saved me a huge amount of dollars by not ruining my tire or having the need to buy a new one. Let's face it folks, tires are not cheap for sports cars or any car for that matter in today's economy. One tire could be some folks car note.... If you catch my drift....at least mine are. lol. Nevertheless, these folks saved me and got me out of a serious bind at 10 PM at night when most (if not all) tire shops are closed! It ain't pretty and don't expect a gleaming shop with a pristine waiting area with snacks, WiFi, coffee and a water cooler.....but they get you in and out with your tire needs. And, most of all...taken care of at a price far less than the big-box chain tire shops in the entire DMV! I am happy to pay for the convenience & all of the above. Not to mention... did I say they are open seven days a week--24/7 already!?? I highly recommend this small, minority own business!!! Just have a little patience when coming here. You will be glad you did.

One of DC's best businesses. This tiny shop of Florida Avenue NE Provides the fastest, affordable, and friendliest tire repair. These folks specialize in making what could ruin your day (a flat tire) Into a painless, seamless, easy experience, and get you back on the road safely, quickly, and without a huge hole in your wallet. Long live Mac's!

One of the tires that we didn't realize had a badly worn inner edge until it got this bad.

Great customer service and reasonable pricing. Tire repairs include a free warranty, which was also a plus.

First of all, let me just ask: Why is it so difficult to find a good mechanic?…read more I've been to Auto Tech before and loved their personalized service, but since then I've moved to Baltimore. I tried another mechanic for my Honda Civic, but it just wasn't the service I wanted or expected. So, fast forward to an issue with my window. Long story short, I had it replaced by a certain well-known company, and three months later it wouldn't roll all the way up. They came back out to honor the lifetime warranty only to tell me it was the regulator. IMO they/he was responsible for breaking the regulator, as there was no problem with the window until it was replaced. There was definitely a nexus. But I digress. Instead of having to search for another mechanic in Baltimore, I just returned to what I already knew was good--Auto Tech. Todd and family are very personable and make you feel like you're at home. They're not trying to cheat you out of your hard-earned money by making up things that need to be repaired. If there's an issue, they'll lay out your options and let you choose which route you'd like to take. Again, I'm in Baltimore. But that's not a problem, as their waiting area is superb. You'll find the Wi-Fi code right there where you can see it. At one point Todd came out and said I could change the channel if I wanted to. They've got a nice coffee machine, snacks, and leather chairs that are as comfortable as the ones I have at home. My AC was also running warm so they checked that and topped it off. I also had them check my brakes. And they quickly repaired my window. The price was very reasonable. So, I'll just have to keep coming back to Bowie to have my Honda Civic serviced. No problem.

lol. No. So I had my…read morecar towed there because the engine gave out but the lights/ accessories were still on. They told me I needed to fix a rotted tube (valid). Oh, and that I also needed $2200 additional dollars of "work" the majority of which was new brake pads and rotors. When I asked how much of it was brake pads and roters, they said $1700 dollars. Also they told me the car was pulling HARD to the left. I had not experienced this symptom. If I take my hands OFF of the wheel while going forwards it drifts to the left..but I figured my tires needed rotating and an alignment. They were very very insistent about trying to sell me BOTH brake pads and rotors. I asked if I could just break pads. They said no. Keep in mind I brought my car in because I had an ENGINE problem. Not a brake problem. When I called back the next day, all of a sudden it was $1400 dollars to do the work they recommended. $900 of which was brake pads and rotors. I told them I needed to think about it. In the end, I said I would just pay for the work already done and pick up the car. They said "they turned off all of the dashboard lights" . When I got there, the mechanic that tested the car said that "it wasn't hard, but the car pulled the left and he never experienced that before" Uh huh. Sure. They didn't mention at all the original problem, and why the engine might be shutting down while it was on. Luckily repairing the hose seemed to fix that. By that time I was ready to just leave. When I actually turned the car in, the low air pressure light was on for the tire. So they indeed had not "turned off all the lights" nor done me the courtesy of filling up my tires after charging $230 just to DIAGNOSE the car. There was an additional charge for the labor for the rotted hose. The total I paid was around $350. And get this. When I went home, bought an air compressor, fills up the tire, the drift to the left STOPPED. These people were about to try to charge me $1700 for a symptom that could be fixed with $2.00 worth of air. Do not come here.

Cons They had my car for 24 hours and i had to call them to ask for updates. They gave me 8k estimate for a full scope of work that was needed. I declined all but what my car got towed for and 3 new tires. That total cost was $1500 When my car was ready they called me 15 mins before closing so i could not get my car until the following day. Would not have been an issue but they parked my car on the street where it received a ticket. When i mentioned the ticket they collected it and said they were going to pay it. A month goes by and the ticket has not been paid and it doubled. I didn't follow back up before the month went by because my dad passed 10 days later so it was not on my mind. When i called the shop to explain about the ticket they said they don't usually pay this kind of parking ticket. Lol after it doubled they conveniently do not pay this type. All of this could have been avoided had they looked at the ticket type and called me to notify me. They will never get anymore business from me. Sad because all they had to do was call the customer. Amended 5/6 The GM Mike called me to rectify the situation. He listened to me and apologized for the level of customer service I received. Being that this location is in DC and has a small lot they easily run into issues with ticketing. He made sure the ticket was paid within an hour of our call. I appreciate small businesses and ones that make it right with their customers.
