They cost me an whole engine to have to be replaced and then took no fault after they broke off a camshaft timing sensor when trying to remove it and then left it in the motor. They told me to have it towed to a dealership since they could not get the engine to start. If the timing chain was broken when they received the truck they would have know that and not "Almost seems like it wants to start" and I saw with my own eyes that someone was working on it and spraying starter fluid into the carb. After having it towed the dealership, after taking the car in they reported to me that the timing chain is broken with in a few minutes and the engine was going to have to be replaced which would cost about 10K. Which is almost what I paid for the vehicle. I had it towed to a 3rd location Gann's Automotive in Lawrenceville were the opened up the engine and sent me photos of the chewed up magnetic part of the camshaft sensor that must have wedged itself in the chain and the sprocket and then broke the chain. Its hard and not just plastic as Tucker Tire claimed. Its metal and magnetic under that plastic as I was given the parts when they showed me the damage They gave me the broken chain, timing chain cover and the cam sensor in my hand. Gann's Automotive got me a low mileage engine and had it installed with in the same time that my truck sat at Tucker Tire with no results, Tucker Tire wanted to charge me 8k for a engine when they are at fault for breaking off a part and leaving it in the engine when they could have removed the timing chain cover which would have taken them maybe 30mins to remove to extract the part that was broken off........ read more

I was in a pinch, my car was overheating and these guys were nearby. I paid $60 for a diagnostic that told me absolutely nothing. They lied about what they checked and wanted to charge a ridiculous sum to replace a fan that was not contributing to the problem at all. Even at the risk of destroying your car, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE! You will get screwed if you bring your car here. UPDATE: So after going to a reputable mechanic, not only did they find the real problem and fix it. They tested the fan and it worked flawlessly! GO ANYWHERE ELSE BUT HERE!! read more

I went there today and the said I needed alignment. I felt the car pulling sometimes so I know this to be true. Because of something they didn't do on the last oil change they rotated the tires and gave me a free alignment. I have been a customer since 2014 and have gotten really good service here. read more

My daughter went there this morning for a tune up and the man at the counter was not only rude and dismissive but verbally abusive! I am so over this place. I've used them before and had great service but management must have changed because their service is garbage! read more

Buyer Beware! This place is old time bait and switch store! Buy one of something, you pay twice for something else. RIP OFF! read more

I think the last place that I took my car, is the one that recommended Tucker Tire which is a few blocks away, because their mechanic was gone. I am really sorry that I took that advice. Long story... My car overheated after a job in Buckhead, I heard a thump, but actually made it home, however, car overheated and antifreeze was billowing out of the hood. I was told to take it to Tucker Tire. I did and really liked the manager at the time who seemed to shoot straight. Chris worked with me, but also told me the truth... Clearly the belts were blown and then replaced that day that I brought my poor car in. I paid $340 for the two belts that had gone. I drove out of the lot and toward my house when the car started revving and temp went up... I turned around and drove back. I told Chris that I didn't even make it down the road a mile before it was overheating again!!! He brought the mechanic, Walter out to look at it as he was the one who had worked on it and tested it out, supposedly. He said I now needed a radiator. I was really angry and asked why he didn't see this before they let me drive it out? He got angry and I told Chris that I didn't want him working on my car anymore. Chris admitted that most of the mechanics there had been fired and rehired previously. Great!! So, the radiator was replaced the next day and cost me another $300. All worked fine for a few months and then the car overheated again in April. Took it back to TT as I felt it was their issue in the first place. I had to tow the car this time though for another $100 and when I got there, there was a new manager in town. Jason seemed nice enough but I told him of my issues and said that it was a radiator hose. I asked why that wouldn't have been replaced when the radiator was put in, but he said that it wouldn't have been. Now this cost me $127 that day and prayed that this was the last time that I would have to deal with them. Cue June, working a job at Lake Lanier and BOOM... again the car loses power steering and overheats.. I'm livid and of course have to call a tow company to take me over 30 miles home which cost me $150. Again thinking that this is their issue I take it back to TT. Wow, another manager.. hmmm, 3rd one in 6 months and none of the mechanics are any that I've seen previously. Gary, who says he has 37 years in the business, but can't work on cars anymore, tells me that I have to leave it with him and will get back to me the next day. I find out that it is... guess.. now the water pump.. I tell him that this seems fishy to me and he tells me that none of it is related. Wow, the cooling system, not related, ok. So the pump is gone and the fan has stopped and the radiator is rattling around. I tell him it seems that the shoddy workmanship was the problem, but he tells me no. He says I owe him $275 and oh, I now need a thermostat as they can't get it to stop overheating. This of course will be another $250.. Now I've really had enough. I call a few other mechanics in the area who are recommended to me by Advance Auto Parts, who all tell me that they (TT) obviously doesn't know what they are doing and haven't bled the air out of the lines. So I walk my ass up there and demand my car so that I can take it next door to one of the other mechanics. Gary is clearly defensive and tells me that it's parked further up another mile at their "sister store" and tells me that I should have called him as they have yet to put more antifreeze in the car. I tell him, I'm done and am going to get my car, damned the other mile I will have to walk. He makes me pay for the water pump and I walk some more. He drives, to meet me up there and give me the key as well as the water pump that they took out that I asked for. I drive it to the mechanic that was next door as he said he would look at it. He does, and bleeds the line... Guess what? There was no overheating!!! So, bottom line, it cost me over $1200 to get my car running again from the first time when the belts blew in December. The mechanic next door to TT charged me nothing for doing what TT didn't do and was going to charge me for yet another part that I supposedly needed and shouldn't drive very far...OMG. The shop is owned by two Asians, one named Alan, who do nothing except let their American speaking managers and iffy mechanics run all over the customers. I made sure I was very vocal when I last picked up my car to make sure that everyone in the waiting area knew how shady this business was and is, and the owners, though walking through the room, ignored anything I said. RUN DON'T WALK .. away from this place. I do recommend the place next door who seemed very knowledgeable. read more

For anything other than an emergency tire repair these guys don't seem to be interested in providing reliable, honest service. Bad experience. Skip this one and take your car elsewhere. read more

I've been coming here for years, which doesn't seem to mean much. The customer appreciation isn't high, but the prices are. I will say that they've been able to fix all of my repairs in a timely manner. Both foreign and domestic. They also stand behind their work which is good. If you don't have a reliable mechanic, then I would come here. I've gotton mechanical work done here only seeing as to the prices are too high for my blood. read more

Lol...I have read other reviews of this place which have for the most part been negative. I'm a tough customer but a fair critic because I know what level of service I expect when I'm spending my money; anything other than my personal expectations of service expected is unacceptable and unconscionable and I don't mind sharing my opinion, good or bad, about a service I have used so I find it ironic that I am the one rendering a positive review of this place, based on my personal experience. That said, I came across this place on GroupOn while looking for an inexpensive provider for a tie alignment. I live in the downtown Atlanta area so I was reluctant to make the 30 minute drive to Tucker but I got what I went for and they did a good job. read more

I took my Kia in twice for a simple oil change and afterwards I started to see small oil spots in my driveway, so I took my car to the Kia dealership to find out Tucker tire was using the wrong size filter. Here is the kicker!!!! So, I called Tucker tire and proceeded to explain that hey we're using the wrong size filter on my car and the response I got from Tucker tire was, "well we will check into it"!!!! Wow! No apology or was your engine ok, just we will check into it. If you love your vehicle and need your vehicle I strongly recommend staying away from Ticker tire, Seriously. If this place can't do a simple oil change and secondly don't give a crap of their mechanics placed the wrong size filter on your car this is a nightmare. Never go these guys. read more

Tucker Auto Service - Tires Near Me - Tucker, Georgia

I went in asking for an alignment. They told me I needed to replace my left front tire. They sold me a used tire that turned out to be crap. Plus they had me pay for an alignment even after they saw that I didn't need one. Totally wasted my money because I went in thinking I needed an alignment since my car shakes bad when I drive. Actually I need new tires. Yet they let me think I needed the alignment and had me pay for it, when I just needed new tires, yet they sold me a crappy used tire that was basically no more better than the tire I had. My advice, if u go here and get a used tire check it before they put it on because it looked fine to me but when I went to another place the technician told me it was a bad tire. I will NEVER be coming back here EVER read more

I love this place. Everyone is always so nice, & when they are fixing my car they give me the wifi password so I can do homework while I wait. Corey & Andy are super nice, & tell you exactly what's wrong with your car. I took my car tire to 3 different car places because it was flat & had a nail in it. & they all just told me to buy a new tire from them. Once I took it to Andy he told me that we could easily plug the hole & then pump the tire. He didn't even charge me. I've gotten oil changes, new brakes put in, & other work done too. I've been going to them for 2 years & I refuse to go anywhere else. Easy 5 stars! read more

Very unprofessional...came in for a simple alignment...first was told it would take 5 hours...there was only 2 other customers...wth...then I was told they would take my car to another shop down the street...um no I brought my car here...then all of a sudden they can squeeze me in...before even coming in I made an appointment online a week before and never got a callback...I asked about this and was told he had no record of it and that they don't even take appointments on Saturdays...I would not recommend this place to anyone read more

They've been putting tires on my car for 8 years. Always fast, always professional. They stand behind their tires, free balancing for life! And when I had a flat, they didn't charge me to patch it. Tire lasted 1.5 more years before it needed to be replaced with the rest. read more

Don't Go Here. The owner has a terrible reputation of being dishonest with customers, overcharging. There are many honest car repair businesses in Tucker that will treat you fairly and honestly. IMHO.... read more

Why is an honest local mechanic so hard to find? I used to drive past this place almost every day, not noticing it was there until I made it a goal to find a local auto mechanic. How I wish I stopped at one of the many other places further up Lawrenceville Highway... Before finding this place, I had an alignment done at Firestone. When that was finished, they gave me an itemized list of recommended services that came to a little over $300. I figured I could get those same services done elsewhere for less and I eventually landed at Tucker Auto Service. I needed an oil change, an oil leak repaired, and a new tire and they did that part well enough without breaking my wallet. They also seemed okay, especially since they had a ton of people lined up for services. To me, that amount of business meant a good thing, so I figured I'd return to get the remaining repairs I needed for my car. When I drove away from their lot that day, I noticed that my engine light was still on. It's always on for some reason or another and I thought that was a little strange since every time I go to get my car serviced everywhere else, that is always taken care of, but I assumed that it would go off eventually like it usually does between services and didn't think much of it. It did not. So a few days later, I called Corey, the manager, told him that my light was still on, and that I noticed it since the day they serviced my car. Of course, he told me to come back so he could run the code and see what was wrong. When I returned, Corey hooked the code reader into my car and told me two things were wrong: my fuel cap needed to be replaced and I needed a new coolant sensor and thermostat. He even grabbed one of his employees (I guess to add "legitimacy" to his little show) to show me how the lining of the fuel cap could wear over time and how the temperature gauge in the dashboard wasn't working. What an interesting problem to have, I thought, since that was never an issue before they touched my car. We went back inside and I asked him to give me a quote for how much it was going to cost to get the sensor and thermostat fixed. As he typed, I noticed that he put in "Premium" thermostat. I wasn't going to pay for that anyway, but I like that I wasn't given options to choose from. The total came to about $200 and he said he'd even replace my windshield wiper hose for free. How nice, considering that it didn't cost much and he thought he was about to squeeze $200 out of me anyway. I asked for a printout of the estimate and left. I went home and told this to my friend who has automotive experience and he figured he could fix the sensor and replace the thermostat himself. We went to the automotive shop, got the parts, and went back home. When he popped open the hood, he noticed immediately that the coolant sensor was unplugged... Those charlatans were going to charge me $200 to plug in my sensor. I had my friend show me how hard it was to plug it out, and those things don't just fall out on their own - unplugging the sensor requires a lot of force. Needless to say, I was livid and I was even more concerned that the snakes at Tucker Auto Service might have done more to sabotage my car to get me back into their shop. My friend spent a lot of time on my car, checking everything he could and didn't find anything else wrong. In the midst of seeing red, it dawned on me why they probably had so much "business" in the first place - they prey on people who seem completely unaware of how to care for their vehicles, but luckily for me, I know people who aren't. Ultimately, I do not recommend Tucker Auto Service. Although they did a good job and had good prices for fixing my oil leak and replacing my tire, they are dishonest and that can't be tolerated at any level when one's livelihood (the ability to get to and from work) and hundreds, potentially thousands of hard-earned dollars are at stake. Very clever though, how they initially lured me in with good work, so they could tack on "issue" after "issue" with each visit. They could have had a customer for life, but they obviously don't think that far ahead, especially when people like me have resources (friends that know what to look for) for not getting screwed over. The only good thing to come out of this is that they have inspired me to be proactive about learning more about how to take care of my car so that I don't find myself in a similar situation again, so this experience was not a complete waste of time, gas, and energy for that reason alone. read more

Very poor experience! I called Tucker Tire on 2/16/2017 to order brakes for my vehicle. The service agent asked for my VIN and manufacturers date. I called back on the morning of 2/17/17 with the VIN number. I asked the person if the parts would be delivered when I brought the car in at 8:00 am the following morning. I explained that I needed the car to be ready at noon, as I had another appointment. He said the car would be ready at noon. I arrived at 8:15. My car was taken into the shop, put on the lift. The brakes, rotors, etc were removed from the car. At 11:30 I asked how the repair was coming along, I was told that they were waiting on parts. I asked why my car was ripped apart if the parts weren't in, and why it took them 3 1/2 hours to tell me they didn't have the parts. Tucker Tire should have informed me that they didn't have my parts when I arrived. The parts did not arrive until 12:30. My car wasn't completed until 1:30. 1 1/2 hours later than promised. At 11:30 I asked the clerk to put the car back together as I really need to leave. I was informed that they couldn't do that. My issue was not with the price or the work completed. My issue with Tucker Tire is that they did not communicate expectations, they seem to have a supply chain problem and they should have informed me that the parts were not delivered in order to repair my car when promised. I would have changed my schedule to allow for the late delivery of the parts. I was extremely disappointed with the way Tucker Tire handled my repair and I will not use their services again, and I would not recommend them. Tucker Tire's sign states" Service you can trust" My response to that is "Service you CAN'T TRUST". read more
