The manager Charles is always very friendly and helpful. Very professional and great with communication. I would recommend this location to anyone in need of service on their car. read more

The service that you receive from this tire shop makes you feel like a VIP. They were very thorough in their examination of my tires and diagnosed the problem that I was having with one of my tires, they proceeded to quote me a price to fix it for $29 and the bill ended up being $19.60. Needless to say we were treated better than fair and will use this business on the future if we have a need. read more

Always get my cars checked out here. Good customer service. The prices are reasonable and the best part is the employees recognize me by name even after long droughts of not going in. read more

Last November, I ordered snow tires from Goodyear.com. Skip's Tire (aka Car-X, Homewood) was the closest location they would ship my tires to. Long story short, the tires were the wrong size... these were the tires I really wanted but they did not have them in a size that would fit my rims. So I ended up getting a set of winter rims through PepBoys. It took several visits to get everything hammered out, but Skip's ended up doing a great job with mounting the new tires and new rims as well as doing a TMPS swap-out. I was totally satisfied with the rim/tire setup I decided on, and I'll tell you what: Denise went above-and-beyond to make sure everything got taken care of and that all my concerns were addressed. Even though there are closer tire shops, I will be returning to Skip's each spring and fall to get my snow tires swapped back out to my street tires. read more

Car-X Tire & Auto - Dunlop WinterMaxx tires, purchased from Goodyear.com, mounted by Skip's on our 2013 Mini. - Tires Near Me - Homewood, Illinois

So my son took his car in for a check up prior to getting on the road to head back to school. He decided to get an oil change while he was in this car x. Less than 20 minutes after leaving the location his car went dead and he was stranded on the road. Upon inspection his car was found to be empty of oil. The oil fill cap was not present however oil was not splashed around the engine or the hood. We purchased several quarts of oil and got the car to start and returned to the car x location. Several more quarts were added to the vehicle. When I spoke with the manager the next day he did apologize and offered a discount on some future service and that will not happen. At the very least he could have refunded the money for the oil change, which they did not perform, or to reimburse my son for the oil that he had to purchase. Lets not forget about the inconvenience of being stranded because of the lack of simple details by the staff or whomever was supposed to do the oil change which turned out to only be an oil drain. read more

My customer experience was awesome. Charles the manager and his team was very thorough inspecting my vehicle. The prices were very reasonable and while they repaired my car they took me home and when it was finished they came back to pick me up. They are my new go to place for car repairs read more

This review is for the CarX in Homewood, Il. The store manager Charles was very uncaring about misdiagnosing my car. Went in to fix my car stopping on the expressway and was told I needed a catalytic converter and some kind of hose as per the check engine light. I asked would that fix the problem and he said it should but they won't know for sure until they do it. After fixing it my car stopped on the expressway again. Took it back and had to pay more for a battery. I said if that was the problem all along I would have had the other stuff fixed yet. He claimed they were 2 separate issues. After that the car stopped on the expressway again...same issue. Clearly they don't know what they're don't over there read more

Whether its Goodyear, Skips Tire, or CarX, this business provides outstanding and stellar service. On a Saturday afternoon, while traveling through Homewood, we had a breakdown; broken strut. We saw the Goodyear on the building (and Skips Tire on the side) and limped our vehicle into the lot. Jim at the front desk, was sympathetic to our situation and got our car looked at right away. The repair cost was reasonable and fair (we called around while waiting) and the repair time very fast for the replacement of two struts and spring assemblies. Mostly we were grateful for the level of care ad support we received from Jim and the team. We would definitely recommend this establishment to anyone needing auto repairs. read more

I have to give at least 1 star to post a review, but they deserve a -10. I dropped my car off on the Monday morning of August 8th. To do a brake repair and detail they kept my car for 2 days. When I returned to pick up my truck there was oil stains everywhere in the interior of the car. When I complained about the oil they offered only a free oil change. Once I refused they reluctantly took $70 off my near $1000 bill. I will never return and I urge everyone not to give them your business. read more

I used to get my oil changed here all of the time and I liked the service and the prices. Yet last month when I went in for an oil change, I was charged 75 bucks for synthetic oil, they refused to honor my coupon and rotate my tires and they failed to reset my dash. I had to go on youtube and learn to do it myself. That was my last visit there and if you care about service and price, you should avoid at all costs!!!! read more

The Service Engine light on my 1998 Crown Vic has been on and off over the past 6 months. The engine has been running very rough. I have had other maintenance issues successfully fixed by CarX. Denise listened to my analysis of the engine light being on. I was contacted about an hour later with the repairs needed. I agreed and the cost was very reasonable. The service light is off and I quickly took it in for the emissions test and passed. The engine is running very smooth. This CarX has delivered excellent mechanical service. read more

I don't want to pull the race card but I have no other way of figuring out why I was treated the way I was treated today. I needed the tpms reset on my vehicle so I thought why not go local and have it done. I went to Skips which is right down the street from my house. I walked in and the guy at the desk had this depressed looked on his face. I just figured he was tired since it was a hour before close. Anyways I proceeded to ask him if I can pay for my tpms to be reset on my vehicle. (Please note I know this is a less than 2 min task. All tire places have the device to do it since they do tires) anyways, the guy replies "no". I had a blank stare on my face which he saw because I was so confused think You can't reset tpms at a tire shop. He then says to me "go to the dealership to have it done we can't do it here" Wow! I was not asking for it to be done for free and inquired on the cost but you tell me to go to a dealership. Skips is a full service tire shop. Not only do they do tires but they do other car repairs but they can't do something as simple as reset tpms? Not sure why they did not want to help me. Anyways I drove to discount tire. Ask discount tire how much and the guy laughed at me and said it was free. Once he did it I thanked him and gave him $20. As I said before I am not sure why Skips would not service me but I will not think about ever going them again for nothing. So much for trying to support a local business. read more
