Capitol Tire and Service for oil change
Clear ✕All 185 Google reviews tagged “Oil change” · showing 40
We are very thankful for the worker who worked persistently to determine the evasive cause of the problem my car was having. The final solution worked well. The cost was very reasonable.
All the technicians at Capitol Tire are the best! Caleb and Derrick at the front are the ones we usually speak with, but the guys in the back who actually do the hands-on work are the unsung heroes who make my cars run well! We have been using them for many years and they have always been honest, fair, and…
Caleb & Derik were great to work with, very clear & accurate information. My Infiniti runs & sounds like a new car!
Mike at Capitol is a first rate mechanic. His service is of the highest quality, and his expertise in automotive care is truly outstanding. I highly recommend him and completely trust him with my vehicle needs
Caleb at Capitol Tire has been helping me for years at this point and I always feel so well taken care of! I won’t go anywhere else for service to my car. I trust them completely and consider them a true gem in Madison.
My check engine light came on. I called Capitol and took the car in. Within minutes they diagnosed the problem and started working on it. An advantage to being a regular customer is they know my car (and me). Great, dependable service.
Capitol Tire has been our sole site for auto service and repair since we moved to Madison in 1981. For sure, we are satisfied! 1/9/2026: Just had new tires & front brakes installed. 3/4-day job. Car drives so well with 140K miles on it. Need to stop back for rebate sheet and then all is good.
Have gone for years. The guys are always upfront and honest. Even if I wanted something fixed, they would be honest and say it's not worth it. Being a woman, you're always leery of mechanics. I can trust them and work is top notch. Thanks 😊
I recently decided to bring my vehicle to Capitol Tire and Service instead of the dealer. I’m very glad that I switched. I feel like I am getting better maintenance and/or repair work at Capitol Tire. The customer service, in particular from Derik, has been exceptional. I highly recommend Capitol Tire and Service.
Derik at Capitol Tire and Service was supportive and gave good advice regarding an on-going noise issue with my Prius Plug-in Hybrid. The problem was traced to a defective rear break caliper and poor service at the local Toyota dealer. Unfortunately the 12 month warranty on the new caliper had expired by one month,…
I’ve always had a great experience here! Everyone is very friendly, informative, and does an excellent job communicating throughout the entire process. I really trust them to be honest about what my car needs and to get the necessary work done correctly. I’ll continue coming here for oil changes and any future repairs!
I went to Capitol Tire for new tires and a wheel alignment. Prior to the appointment, Derik outlined some tire options. I also explained that other shops, including a dealer, had not able to properly align my vehicle. In two previous attempts, the steering wheel was not centered correctly after the alignment. After…
Always courteous and inform me of recommended work.
Capitol provided a loaner car for us while they replaced transmission and brake fluids. They are such professionals, so great to work with.
They are very kind and fast. I appreciate everything theyve done for me. Always coming back
This was my first time at the shop. I found it on Google and was Impressed with a 4.9 star rating, so I decided to give them a shot. They were helpful and very patient with me. Got my oil changed for my vintage Mustang. I will be coming back very soon for a couple of minor age/wear issues—an offer of trust, because…
Great Service! Very professional!!
The people at Capitol are friendly, accommodating in scheduling work and are skilled at their work, letting you know if more is needed giving you the info needed to make a decision on timing. They also communicate well as the work proceeds. I'm glad we found them!
Great communication and excellent work as always.
I trust Capital Tire. They always keep me informed about costs along the way and I value their expertise and input. Ive been coming here for years for routine oil changes and maintenance as well as issues that need more problem solving and have never been dissatisfied! I feel confident having them work on my Prius.
I have been a client of Capitol Tire and Auto Repair Service for many years. They are always prompt and professional. They do what they say and if they find some additional items that need service or repair they are great about calling and discussing and getting approval to move forward.
The team is great. They're courteous, resourceful and professional. They know how to ride the line between what's recommended for safety and damage mitigation down the line while also not breaking the bank or being pushy about less important repairs. I'll certainly be visiting them again for my future car repair and maintenence needs.
Excellent service as usual. Always prompt to get your vehicle in as scheduled, keeping you informed of any additional repairs that should be taken care of. Wouldn't take our vehicles anywhere else and have been happy and satisfied customers for 30+ years. Highly recommend!
The group at Capital Tires is exceptional! Professional and friendly.
I’m never going anyplace else with our cars! Still true!
Superior service, attention to detail, plus this team really cares for the well-being of their customers.
Very efficient and dependable. Conveniently located. We rely on them for basic maintenance and tires; troubleshooting and repair.
Even though I accidentally brought my car in on the wrong day, they made an effort to do my oil change that same day. I really appreciated their understanding and great job as usual.
Very patient explaining what needed to be done and what might be needed in the future. Our truck is 16 years old without many miles so it does not fit the usual schedules based on age and miles.
Very professional and honest. Would go no where else.
I have a used 2018 Subaru (which I love). Capitol Tire was thorough and patient with visual explanations for someone who knows very little about cars (me). Derik is the best.
Very kind and even drove a loaner car to my wife’s workplace to pick up the car that needed work. Quality work
Very customer focused! Fast, efficient service. Helpful and friendly. Take the time to explain what's needed now, and what can be done later. Speak in terms anyone can understand, even if you didn't take auto shop in school. Great communication and terrific web site! Highly recommend!!!
I’ve been going to Capital Tire for over 20 years- I wouldn’t go anywhere else!
Best car mechanics in the universe! Honest and knowledgeable!!
We've been going to Cap Tire for over 10 years and have had absolutely excellent service. Great prices, super friendly, HIGHLY recommend!
I recently switched to Capitol Tire on a recommendation from my previous auto shop who moved out of town. They have been nothing short of fantastic. The customer service has been great, and the prices are competitive and reasonable.
As always a great experience. In addition to the work done, they dropped me off and picked me up at home, a real convenience. The people at CT are top professionals as well as nice people to do business with. I recommend them to all my friends and family.
Always a great experience! They do quality work and have a friendly staff. I always recommend them!
I have been bringing my vehicles here for several years now for oil changes and repairs. All of the guys have been great! They take the time to answer any questions I have and I always feel I can trust them to do "what they would tell their mom to do if it was her car". They have even helped me decide when it was…
