OVER 700 REVIEWS

This was my first time at CDT Automotive and I had a great experience from start to finish. The team was professional, honest, and kept me updated throughout the process. The work was done right and completed within the time frame they promised. Their shuttle service was a lifesaver — perfect for anyone who doesn’t have a ride home or back for pickup. The invoice was very clear and detailed, listing the work performed along with helpful recommendations and other issues they found during my

Herminio Vega

Its hard to fine a place like this these days. Techs are experienced and complete solid troubleshooting. Everybody is friendly, and the waiting area is comfortable with Wi-Fi. Price is in-line with current rates. I didn’t not experience any upselling. My issue was diagnosed, explained to me in detail, and repaired timely. This shop is a 30-minute drive for me, and I will not hesitate to head back out there when needed. I simply do not trust any of my local shops. Highly recommended.

J Rud

I’ve been here a couple of times now for tire mounting/balancing. They’re always able to get me in quickly when I call. I had a tire get a slow leak once weight was put on it and they were able to get it in to fix it. In the process a TPMS sensor was broken, which they replaced and reset at no charge to me. They even protected my car interior and left some treats for me with my tire! The people I’ve worked with have all been very respectful of my car and incredibly professional and polite to me.

Ashley Marlowe

CDT Automotive is hands down the best shop I’ve ever been to! AJ treated me like family from the moment I walked in. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was smooth and stress-free. They even gave me a nice, clean loaner vehicle while mine was being fixed, which made things so convenient. When I got my truck back, it ran better than ever. You can tell they take pride in their work. The whole experience was fast, professional, and honestly pleasant. I’ll never take my vehicle anyw

Lizard King

CDT is oustanding! I recently took my 4Runner to CDT for new tires and to get my backup camera fixed. Everyone inside was so kind and attentive. Their customer service was second to none. I was updated after my tires were installed and once again when the backup camera was fixed. All the work was done quickly and professionally. This is the second time I’ve been to CDT and I will be taking all my vehicles there for any needs in the future.

Maylon Fowler

Very happy with the service and quality of work from the team at CDT. I had some skid placed installed and will have a lift and new tires put in. The sales consultant Henry was very helpful and took time to find the best option for the lift, called the company that had the one I wanted to ensure it was compatible. They ordered the tires that I wanted because they don’t have them in stock. While I waited I hanged out in the client area which they have snack, drinks and comfortable seats or table

Michael Schott

CDT is amazing! They take care of all my fun aftermarket accessories as well as my basic & not so basic automotive needs. If you are a truck or Jeep owner, this is the place to go. Make sure to ask for AJ, he is the man!

Nikki Stafford

I was impressed with CDT from start to finish. They had a super easy system for scheduling an appointment. Got me in next day. Clearly explained their recommended repairs. They had a really easy online system for approving the options and I’m really pleased with the results of my new tires, alignment and brakes. Bobby and the teams customer service is what really stood out as exceptional. Little details like providing a ride home and picking me back up, as well as welcoming my kids when I had

Shannon Hensley

CDT Team installed underglow lights on my Forte. They did an awesome job. I am so happy and excited and pleased with the results!!! They are very courteous and professional..Thank you CDT! I will be back for other services when needed 😁

Linda lovato

I recently took my 2015 Grand Cherokee to CDT for a front-end alignment, and I was thoroughly impressed with the entire experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff was professional, courteous, and clearly experienced. They took the time to explain the alignment process, reviewed my concerns, and got the vehicle in right away. The alignment was completed efficiently and with great attention to detail. The technician provided a summary of the adjustments made and showed me the before-and-afte

Bill B

I have been a semi-regular customer of CDT. I must say I have been very pleased with the service writers and the cleanliness of the front reception area. The waiting room is very nice as well. Keep up the good work in those areas. I worked with Henry this time around and he was very pleasant and fun to work with. Nobody likes to spend money on vehicle repairs but CDT seems to make it more pleasurable. Henry should be promoted to a senior service writer position with management potential in

Donald Elliott

CDT was great at working with me to diagnose my Grand Cherokee’s AC issues and come up with plan to fix. They were extremely professional & friendly! The facility was very impressive, clean! They provided a loaner so I would not be put out. Highly recommend!

Kendall Ogren

CDT Automotive is the place to make your vehicle mod dreams come true. Expert, friendly Service Advisor, AJ Oliver, did a phenomenal job getting my order together, scheduling, and keeping me informed of the progress. The mod came out better than I expected. Kudos to the hard working mechanics who deserve but do not often get the recognition. Great work!

David Bolduc

Amazing customer service with this team. CDT was strongly recommended and I now understand why. I called to learn if they could evaluate-repair a diesel exhaust fluid console message. The service advisor needed to confirmed that my Sprinter 3500 Forester camper height could be accomodated by their lift-garage height. Lucky for me it would. They are honest, offer unbiased advise and options with reasonable prices. Their ride service is top notch. I’m a “happy camper”. Thank you CDT Automot

D S

Had a bit of a tough ask for these guys a few weeks ago with installing my high output alternator. Nobody else was able to do it, but CDT got me in within 2 days. I waited to write a review to make sure the work they did is ACTUALLY good, and so far I have had no problems with my car what so ever, subs blast. Thank you CDT! (my name is Miles Lewis)

Chauncey

I took my truck to CDT last week to get the oil changed. Scheduling online couldn’t have been easier. Communication was great with the folks there prior to me coming by. I had a late appointment, but they got me through extremely quick. I’ve personally known the owners of CDT for a long time but haven’t ever had anything done at their shop….even if I didn’t know them, I’d still make them my go-to place for all things automotive. I have to schedule some more work done and am excited I have a gr

Stephen Barbour

I Just had a bunch of work done on my Toyota tundra at CDT automotive. I had a supercharger, full fox suspension, wheels and tires, light bar and much more installed. Ben is the man! Throughout the build, he communicated with me about everything and kept me in the loop. I think Tony did most of the work and he did an amazing job. I would highly recommend working with them.

Prince Ali

Honestly this company is great. Henry is informative and was wonderful in staying in contact with me. The men did great work on my car. And the free pick up and drop off service is SO convenient. All for supporting hard working local businesses and this is most definitely one of them! Thank you CDT! You got a customer for life.

Emily DeAngelo

I had an excellent experience with CDT Automotive! The team was incredibly friendly and took the time to explain everything thoroughly, making sure I understood all the details. Their lounge is awesome—comfortable, stocked with snacks, and perfect for waiting. Plus, they even offer a loaner car if needed, which is such a thoughtful touch. I couldn’t have asked for better service. Highly recommend!

Joe Nugent

This is a rare company. They are a highly professional operation and seem to genuinely care about people. We had some emergency car issues right before the holiday. They willing and able to take us last minute. I walked in to a pristine and professional looking front office. The people at the front were knowledgeable and kind. When I dropped my car off, they shuttled me back to our house. They gave me a link to our estimate which included a breakdown and pictures of what they were analyzing. Th

Joshua Cushing

Needed a trustworthy auto repaid shop as I am new to this area. I had saw one of the courtesy vehicles at the home of the business owner I work for. When the time came for oil change, yearly inspection and a screw removed and fixed, I went to CDT. They had my Tahoe for a few hours and did everything to ensure I passed the safety inspection. Truly happy the cost was $166 for everything including a complete vehicle inspection of areas that also needed looked at. Brought my other vehicle for safety

LAURIE EBERLE

I continue to be impressed with CDT Automotive. I don’t often leave reviews, in this case in the current landscape of auto repair/service companies, I want to make sure these folks stand out as outstanding. Every time we have visited, whether for routine services or for maintenance items they have been punctual, cost efficient and transparent. I can’t tell you have valuable their loaner program is which allows us to get our vehicles serviced and not jeopardize our busy family plans. Cannot recom

Julian Johnson

Being a small non profit we rely on CDT to do all our fleet maintenance. They are very accommodating for scheduling and have our vehicles ready when they say they will be done. We’ve never had an issue w any repairs or service they complete. I cannot recommend CDT enough for your vehicle repair or maintenance. I even take my personal vehicles to them. Five stars is not enough to rate them.

Zachary Keisler

Couldn’t be happier with the service provided at CDT Automotive! AJ was very professional and friendly. I had my dog with me and she also was very comfortable hanging out in the waiting room while they worked on my truck. I won’t be taking my truck anywhere else from now on. 💯⚡️

Will Wilcox

The team at CDT did an amazing job taking care of my 17 Ram 2500. They listened to all my request and kept up with communication. AJ was my service advisor and did everything necessary to make me a return customer. I didn’t have a ride to pick up my truck when it was done, no problem they sent a shuttle driver out to get me. The guys that came and picked me up made me feel welcomed.

Vincent Freda

I had an excellent experience with CDT Automotive. AJ, Travis, and their entire team were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable throughout the process of building my truck. They did an outstanding job installing my Carli kit, wheels, tires, and more. Although the original tires I selected had some balancing issues, the team went above and beyond by allowing me to swap them out for a different brand at no extra cost. They also promptly addressed a few other minor adjustments, ensuring everything w

Jake Hinshaw

Seems like my car has been a source of dysfunction for quite a while now. You know, if it wasn’t on thing it was another. So, that brought me to CDT. They do a great job and I like the people! And there is a nice place to wait! Or you can catch a ride home. Highly recommend! Don’t purchase a car warranty!!!

Katherine F Ellis

Customer service is ON POINT. The whole team went above and beyond, even though I was only there for routine service. I was treated as a highly valued customer- and you don’t see that anywhere these days. They are honest with fair pricing. We will be returning customers with all of our vehicles. AJ is fantastic, by the way!

Carol B

hands down the best all around service I have ever experienced! why? first off, I was expecting to just have to wait all day, but the not only gave me a ride back to my house while I waited, but also a ride back to pick up my truck! as for the actually service, top notch install, but they also took the time to go for a test drive with the tech who installed my lift, just to make sure I thought it felt right. CDT is the best, and AJ was really helpful throughout the whole process. I will be back

Frankie DeRosa

Terrific experience. Came for a second opinion on radiator repair. Was quoted $1961.00 at another local family owned shop. CDT did the same job for $1,300.00 and was very knowledgeable, professional, courteous , friendly and very communicative. Went the extra mile in every way. I highly recommend them and will return when I need work on any vehicle.

Paul Peluso

Freaking great service! Very fast oil change. I have 2 dogs that hang out my windows and slobber all down my doors. They saw that and washed it for me. I was headed to a car wash after. Really nice sitting area with wifi, snacks and drinks for free. Will be back!

Darius Davila

Came here to get tires mounted and balanced on a DRW Ram. The shop is super clean and inviting and the staff members were all very friendly. Of course they put the truck through a litany of checks and gave me a report of maintenance that they recommend doing, but there was no pressure to do any of it. What I respected most is that I asked them to do an alignment, but they found my front wheel bearings needed replacement and didn’t do the alignment because it would have been pointless and will ne

Joshnmn

I had CDT install a cover on my truck and they did an incredible job at an affordable price. Not only that but they picked up my truck and dropped it off at my work for me! Great shop and I will be taking my truck there for any repairs needed from now on.

Patrick Glaser

The folks at CDT are amazing and professional. It is such a relief to know that my wife can go there and get her jeep serviced without being taken advantage of. Pricing is great, service is great and prompt. Have nothing but great experiences with them and recommend you give them a try. I will continue to use them from now on. Thanks CDT!!

Jeremy Perry

Excellent customer service!! Clean facility and excellent service!! I have been getting my F450 services at Capital Ford in Lillington until this point. I will never go there again. Not only did the perform just the service I asked for but they also conducted and inspection of the entire truck and provided me with a list of services that need to be done. Which I may add are all the services that I knew or had an idea of that needed to be done. Once again, Outstanding service!!!!

Daniel Hollis

The customer service is great at CDT especially the ride back to my home and later my car was dropped off after repairs. I really loved this aspect. Technically, my car runs smooth and good. It was a great job and I won’t hesitate to refer anyone to CDT. I’m surprised I’ve lived close to this place for years without knowing thank God for the flyer that was dropped in my mail box and I decided to give it a trial and it was a great experience.

Ngwamukie Samuel

*Edited Review* Was 2 stars, now 5. Been going here a while, haven’t really had an issue until now. Kinda want to know why my brake fluid cap is missing after I went in for a rear diff swap. Drove around like this for a week before noticing. I taped it and informed CDT of the problem. They immediately reached out to me directly, ordered the part, and told me to come in when I could. *Update* They replaced the cap, and flushed and bled the brakes for free. Travis and Henry both shook my hand and

Crockett Colbert

Best place in Wake County to have your truck or Jeep worked on. Always take my Jeeps here for tire work as they are one of only a few in the area that use a road force balancing tire machine. If you run a 35” or larger tire, this is the only way to get a proper balance on them and they do it right. Even though I now live in Colorado I still schedule CDT to work on my truck when Im back in town as I know it will be done right. Update, 6/20/24. Had to drive back to NC and realized on the way I

Off To Explore Outfitters

Stopped it to have CDT change the oil and filter on my Porsche Cayenne Turbo. I requested a specific oil, which they gladly provided. They came to me mid-process to let me know the drain plug had been previously stripped, and offered the option of reusing that plug, or sending a driver out to get a replacement. They were also able to reset the service light, which the previous shop could not do. They don’t just work on trucks and jeeps people!

Rob Fox

Got to say CDT knows their stuff, does excellent work, but most of all stands behind their work. Thank you! I paid for a top of the line level for my son’s Silverado and recently had part fail (ball joint) CDT repaired under warranty. Only 1 ball joint failed but they wanted to do both sides. Great job and thanks. I’ll be back soon for new wheels and tires for my Bronco.

C H

“I recently had the pleasure of using this repair shop for my fleet of trucks, and I couldn’t be more impressed. From the moment I walked in, the staff was welcoming and attentive. They diagnosed and fixed my issue promptly, and the quality of their workmanship was top-notch. Not only did they resolve my problem, but they also provided excellent customer service throughout the process. I highly recommend this repair shop to anyone in need of reliable and professional service!”

Tim Jones

Best shop around! I drive up from Myrtle to have these guys work on my stuff. 2.5 hour drive. And it’s worth it! Such a beautiful facility as well. Nice waiting room with drinks and snacks. All of their employees seem to be on a level of positivity that I’ve never seen anywhere else.

Tyler Franzen

First time customer today. Ashley is awesome and everyone else I met at CDT. Brand new loaner just to make sure I got my boys picked up on time (they loved the snacks, thanks!). And not just topped off DEF but actually needed a whole tank (I hadn’t noticed I was low)…at no charge. Very impressive place and my truck will never go anywhere else.. Thanks, CDT!

The Swinks boys

What a journey it’s been. I’ve had to raise eyebrows and learn more than I ever wanted to about trucks undercarriages, steering and suspension part inter-operability… and the work ethic of technicians and service entities. I had to put my wavering trust and confidence in a qualified shop to diagnose, repair, and re-build a vehicle that I can have my child drive down a highway safely with. CDT was that shop. Through each diagnosis and several parts acquisition issues, CDT has assured me tha

Donna Rich

One of the best experiences I’ve ever had, made an appointment for a 2021 Dodge Durango transmission fluid service as well as the differentials and transfer case. The representative (Christian) made everything clear and was patient and upfront, the process and price which was more than fair for the work done. They also had a shuttle service which was amazing and help me get back home and get my work done. They kept me in the loop and sent me all the details and invoice online. They even dropped

Hashem Wafa

Had a bad alignment on my truck and needed new tires. Dropped truck off and they got it done before the end of the day. Walking inside the showroom/customer waiting area is spacious free complementary drinks, quiet and relaxing atmosphere, as well as amazing aesthetics. Everything is fairly priced and I found a new place where I will be taking my truck from now on knowing that I can drop my truck off and I’ll be in good hands and get the work it needs done done.

SiR_SAVG3

These guys were so great to deal with, they offered refreshments and all. I had them install a lift kit and some wheels and tires and they knocked it out the park, and even provided me with a loaner vehicle. I was very pleased with their service.

Curtis Walker

The highest level of professionalism and craftsmanship. Not the cheapest just the best! I had total confidence in Kyle and Travis. But the bottom line for me is their honesty, I have TOTAL confidence in CDT. I will NOT use anyone else even for an oil change! BRAVO ZULU (job well done) CDT and thank you..
