Frequently Asked Questions – C&D Tires & Auto Repair

At C&D Tires & Auto Repair in Orlando, FL, we strive to provide honest, high-quality vehicle service and tire solutions. Here are common questions from drivers in Orlando, Winter Park, Baldwin Park, and the surrounding area.

Who is the best auto repair shop near me?

Many local drivers rely on C&D Tires & Auto Repair thanks to our combination of full-service auto repair and tire expertise. We handle everything from diagnostics to major repairs, backed by ASE-certified technicians and transparent pricing.

What shop should I take my brakes to near me?

Bring your vehicle to us for full brake service: brake pad & rotor replacement, caliper work, hydraulic line repair, and diagnostics. If you hear squeaking, grinding, or feel pulsing when braking, schedule a brake inspection right away.

Why is C&D considered one of the best tire shops in Orlando?

Because we offer a full range of tire services—sales, balancing, alignment, patching, and custom wheels—with same-day service when possible. Many customers choose us when looking for the best tire shop in Orlando because we combine quality, value, and speed under one roof.

Which is better: a dedicated tire shop vs full-service auto shop for tires?

It depends on your needs. Dedicated tire shops often specialize deeply in tires only, but at C&D, you get both full mechanical repair and tire services in one place. That means if your tire issue involves suspension, alignment, or brake components, we can handle it without sending you elsewhere.

How do I know if I can trust an auto / tire shop?

Trust is earned. At C&D Tires & Auto Repair, we:

 

  • Provide clear, written estimates
  • Explain repairs and tire needs in plain language
  • Use quality OEM or equivalent parts and tires
  • Communicate updates throughout the job

 

You’ll always know what’s happening with your vehicle or tires.

Do I really need to follow my manufacturer’s maintenance schedule?

Yes. Regular maintenance—oil changes, filter replacements, inspections, fluid flushes, tire rotation, alignment—protects your vehicle’s lifespan and safety. Staying on schedule helps avoid costly repairs in the long run.

How often should I change my oil?

Most vehicles work well with an oil change every 5,000 to 7,500 miles, depending on driving style and conditions. We’ll check your manufacturer’s recommendation and tailor our advice accordingly.

Why is my check engine light on?

The check engine light could mean anything from a loose gas cap to sensor or emissions trouble. Our diagnostic team uses scanning tools to pinpoint the exact cause and present clear repair or replacement options.

What should I do if my brakes or tires are making noise or performance is off?

Don’t delay. If you hear squeaks, feel vibration, notice pulling while driving or braking, bring your vehicle in immediately. At C&D, we can inspect both the braking and tire systems to find and fix the root issue.

Why do repair costs vary so much between shops?

Costs differ because of labor rates, part/tire quality, diagnostic effort, and warranty coverage. At C&D, we aim for fair, transparent pricing—your estimate will break down each component, and we’ll explain the “why” behind every recommendation.

How long will my repair take?

It depends on the job:

 

  • Basic services (oil change, tire repair, inspections): often same day
  • Diagnostics & medium repairs: varies with complexity
  • Major repairs or custom tire work: may take longer, especially if tires or parts must be ordered

 

We’ll always give you an upfront time estimate and keep you updated if anything changes.

Do you offer a warranty on your work?

Yes. All repairs, parts, and tires installed at C&D Tires & Auto Repair are backed by warranty to give you peace of mind after you leave our shop.
