The problem

Warning light on?

A light on the dash is your car asking for help. It doesn't always mean something big.

The check engine light is on, steady or flashing.
The car runs rough, stalls or feels down on power.
A new noise, smell or warning you can't explain. A flashing check engine light means stop driving soon.

How we fix it

What happens at the shop

A code is a clue, not the answer. We find the fault behind it.

We plug in the scanner and read the codes.
We check the parts the codes point to, so you don't pay to replace the wrong one.
You get the answer and a price before any repair starts.
Afterwards

The real answer, and only what it needs

Sometimes the answer is that nothing else needs doing. One driver noticed:

Litterally as amazing as the reviews say, I went in for an allignment, and they checked out the car to see if anything else HAD to be done, but deemed that everything else was in working order (which I had already confirmed with a friend who knows cars very well prior to stopping by here). my car is 10+ years old and I often find places try to make up things to replace in order to price gouge me, but this place is honest, and I will definitely come back again.

What customers say

My coworker raved on about how great this place was! About a year ago, I needed new tires for my BMW 3 series and I brought my car here and ended up getting run flats for a great price. Fast forward to now, I just purchased a Porshe Macan and wanted to get its oil changed and the car inspected since I purchased it used and wanted some peace of mind. I brought my car here on my lunch break (first come, first serve place- both times barely had to wait) and they did the oil change for me and inspected my car. They changed the oil and said everything looked great. They easily could have tried to sell me on things I didn't need like most dishonest mechanics trying to make an extra buck in the area. They are beyond HONEST, friendly and knowledgable. I HIGHLY recommend The Tire Place USA. Its also a plus its a family owned small business! Im so thankful to have found this place

Questions

Car diagnostics questions

What people ask before they pull in.

How much is a check engine light diagnostic?

$50 for the scan. We tell you what we find and what the repair costs before any work starts.

Is it safe to drive with the check engine light on?

If it's steady, get it checked soon. If it's flashing, the engine may be misfiring, so drive as little as possible and come in.

Can't I just read the code at a parts store?

You can read the code there. The code tells you where to look, not what's broken. We find the actual fault so you don't replace the wrong part.

Do I need an appointment?

No. We're walk-in only, first come, first served, Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm and Saturday 8am to 4pm. Closed Sunday.

Do you offer discounts?

Yes, one per visit with ID: 10% off your first visit, 10% off for Uber and Lyft drivers, or 15% off for military and first responders.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. We're a registered Florida motor vehicle repair shop (MV114586), licensed in Broward County (AR-11738), with $1 million liability coverage, and your car is covered while it's with us.
