After many years of supporting Duty Tire Center on Atlantic Ave, I am highly disappointed to say the that they have lost my business and I am currently seeking to have repair damages reimbursed caused by too much oil added, or possibly the old oil wasn't completely drained, during a recent oil change. Perhaps the old oil filter wasn't removed, which holds about a quart of oil itself, I don't know. What I do know is I noticed an oil leak soon after an oil change in January 2024 and took the car back to Duty Tire to have them check it out in February 2024. The leak was found, but I was told it was beyond their capability and I was referred to another mechanic. Upon checking my car's oil level a couple of days later, it registered much higher than the max fill level on the dipstick. I called Chris at Duty Tire and he got extremely defensive but did offer me another oil change as if that would fix the problem. ? I am very perplexed as to why the mechanic did not see that there was too much oil in the crankcase on either of my visits with them- is it not standard procedure to check the oil level anymore? It also seems that if my car was leaking oil when I initially brought it in for service the mechanic would have brought that to my attention. Since then, I've spent $342 on gasket repairs and mailed 2 registered letters to Duty Tire to which I've had no response. I'm a fair person and don't like to complain, but I refuse to be the brunt of someone else's incompetence and don't appreciate being ignored when I have a legitimate complaint. It really is a sad situation, because I have suggested Duty Tire to many people over the years.

This is the only place I take my cars to in Raleigh. They are both honest and effective - the two most important qualities I look for when someone is servicing my vehicles. I have used their services for oil changes, tire replacement, brakes, inspections, status light issues and more. I’ve also had them perform in-person reviews of cars that I was planning on purchasing. I would highly recommend them to anyone in the area. They are often busy so schedule ahead!

They are amazing! Great prices and the best customer service.


Aug 06, 2024

Chris and Jeff are great! Had some codes popped up during an inspection and they were able to scan them and explained to me very throughly. They never up charge or recommend unnecessary work!


Jul 06, 2024

Great service and great people!


Jul 06, 2024

This has been my go to store for 10+ years. The staff is trustworthy, transparent and reliable.


Jun 06, 2024

I would give them 100 stars if I could! Amazing work, honest, fair prices. I can't say enough good things about them.


Jun 06, 2024

I would recommend Duty Tire to anyone in the area needing services for their vehicle. The staff is patient, kind, experienced, and most importantly to me, honest and transparent. Grateful that this place was recommended to me, won't take my car anywhere else!

Just moved here from Florida. Needed a trustworthy mechanic, in which I found Duty Tire online. Great customer service and explanation on my cars needs. Will be using them for all my car needs.


May 06, 2024

Chris and the staff provided positive energy which made the experience wonderful at Duty Tire.Rick the mechanic did fantastic job on the power steering pump. Don’t need to look elsewhere because they will take care of your vehicle issues. I’m not seeking Firestone or others that overcharge you. Thanks Duty Tire

Got an oil change done here. Great service, and fast too!


Apr 06, 2024

Great service done in a timely manner. These guys are awesome, and very honest. I came in because jiffy lube said I was needing new breaks and the Honda dealership told me I needed new fluids, turns out I only needed an oil change and a tire rotation. I appreciate the good work and trustworthiness. Will recommend Duty Tire to all my friends :)


Apr 06, 2024

I brought in a loose wheel with a new tire to go on (had a nail in the old one) and they had it installed super fast and for a very fair price. Thank you guys!


Apr 06, 2024

Our go to for tires and service.


Mar 07, 2024

Great people that we used for years. Had a part problem which caused some delays. Final work seems to be good.

These guys saved my day. I just moved here and while running around I realized my tire was leaking. In a panic I tried to find the closest tire shop and they were it (didn’t hurt they already had a high rating). When I got there, again in a panic, I asked the front desk, who greeted me very nicely, if they could help me or point me in the direction of help. They said they could easily help me and did so right away. Took my car back, 10 minutes later she was patched up, $30. Everyone there was lovely and I will definitely be going back, knock on wood not for awhile, but if I need help, these are now my guys.


Feb 07, 2024

If you need your car worked on brakes tires or anything definitely take it to duty tire I highly recommend them they're such great people


Feb 07, 2024

This is the best place in town. They have never tried to sell me something I didn't need, and always give me all the options. Very friendly and honest people here. Would 100% recommend.


Jan 07, 2024

They were professional, fast, and reasonably priced. Thanks guys.


Dec 07, 2023

Great guys, great service.


Dec 07, 2023

I go there for all my mechanic needs for me and for my work vehicles. Always satisfied. Thanks guys. I appreciate all you do and I feel like I’m not getting robbed as a single mom.


Dec 07, 2023

Been a customer for 25 years. Best car service in Raleigh 👍


Dec 07, 2023

Charged me half of what the dealership wanted to replace a starter, correctly diagnosing what was needed without any diagnostic fee. Friendly, professional service!


Dec 07, 2023

Definitely the best in the area! Forget those big corp tire ships, Duty Tire makes you feel valued as a customer. Always honest, fair, and done by their expected time. They've caught so many things on my car that other big shops turned a blind eye to. Put your trust in Duty Tire!


Dec 07, 2023

Duty Tire is simply the best auto shop I have ever worked with. They are so kind and knowledgeable. I was in a jam with a nail in my tire and they had it fixed the same day with no appointment. It’s the only place I trust in Raleigh.


Dec 07, 2023

Got 4 new tires and two days after that and jeep makes grinding sound and ABS light comes on. Say can’t see me until Thursday but nothing they did when installing..called and expressed frustration they said “will not look at your car again after what you accused me of” good business model, mess something up then act insulted and take no responsibility.


Dec 07, 2023

Great place, trustworthy people, I wouldn’t go anywhere else


Dec 07, 2023

I've been going to these guys since I moved to NC in 2016 was recommended by a friend to bring my challenger there....that was the best advice I've gotten...I refuse to go anywhere else...from my muscle cars, my wife's 4runner and my companies work trucks they do it all it well worth the wait. I give them 8 stars out of 5. Chris and his team are hands down the best I've ever dealt with.


Dec 07, 2023

Knowledgeable, kind and patient business! I was referred by D&E auto and the recommendation did not disappoint. Service was done in a good time and affordable. I don’t foresee any issues. I would recommend especially to women if you are looking for an honest and competent place to get auto repairs.


Dec 07, 2023

My car was having issues for weeks and the other shops that I took my car to, costed me so much money with no real results! This shop with honest and experienced people fixed my car in a short time and I am so glad that my friend recommended it to me. They are amazing and skilled mechanics that you can trust! I definitely recommend it especially if you are new to the area and are having a hard time finding a trustworthy repair shop.


Dec 07, 2023

The most clear cut and honest tire/auto service center in the city. They’ve saved me money countless times by addressing the actual issue and not trying to lump on unnecessary additional services like others do. Tire prices are fair and they won’t hesitate to let you know if you’re getting a better deal elsewhere. Great place with a great group of workers!


Dec 07, 2023

Very nice people. Fast and reliable service.

David and the crew have been doing a great job for decades.
