I found Turnage Auto Care through Yelp and made the appointment right through the Yelp app. Tyler messaged me and set everything up. Aaron greeted me right as I arrived and got the process started. While changing the oil they inspected my car and found a few issues with the tires I mostly knew about. He offered to send a quote to replace one or all tires & TPMS sensors ( which my 13 yr old car was needing ) I liked that they quote through a text link so you can see the cost and everything associated with the repair. You can decline the service or accept it. We talked about tires and sensors and ultimately decided to go with a better tire than quoted. They priced the cost and labor very competitively and I approved the service. There was no pressure at all during this transaction. Just information and options.

I could easily get over the failure to properly communicate with me and update me on my vehicle. But knowing that I would receive a call saying I could come and get my car and then maybe an hour later I would receive another call saying that my car now suddenly has a leak that sure wasn't there when I brought it to Bros is another thing. Then when I went to see my car after a week, I was only faced with men talking down to me. I had one gentleman tell me that "if I had known as much as he does about cars, I would have thrown my car away at 50,000 miles." And then, when discussing the NEW issue my car has, the same gentleman would then make a joke to his buddies about how he "doesn't even want to know how much this will cost her." I end up leaving and bringing my MALE friend to help so the people at Docs would actually listen to what I'm asking. They finally agree, and Doc tells me he will look at my car FOR FREE now. He says he will for sure call the next day. He does not. I get a call two days later telling me what's wrong with my car and how much it will cost. 80-160 for the part and 140 AN HOUR for work (minimum 4-hour job). I say no, I'm going to just buy the part and get the work done elsewhere. Jeff tells me that I will have to pay for the work they did for the new issue even though I was told (and the only reason I let them look at it again) it would be free. He says he is in charge of billing and says I have to pay even though the man whose name is on the building told me I wouldn't. I then just go to get my car TOWED away because it can't drive with it gushing out coolant... They then refuse to put my car back together unless I pay more because, according to Jeff, he already paid a guy 75 to take it apart. Photos are of what my car is supposed to look like vs. the condition I had to take it back in because they insisted on trying to shake my pockets empty. And the best part is the part that ranges 80-160 wasn't even the cause of the leak like they said. It was the $20 hose. So not only did they want to charge an insane price for the work on my car, but they misdiagnosed my vehicle, and then they ACTUALLY DIDN'T EVEN FIX THE ORIGINAL ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE LIKE THEY SAID. It is STILL cutting on and draining my battery as well as the NEW leak. Do not even bother going to Bros if you want something done fast and efficiently because they are also so backed up that they cannot even bother doing things correctly. And this is really just the short version. I left out plenty of details. Might post a more detailed explanation of happenings in Lexington later.

I have always appreciated acknowledgement of my physical presence over a phone conversation. When he finished with the call, he immediately asked what I needed. My vehicle was pulled into a bay within 5 minutes of my walking in. It took about 40 minutes until the work was completed. While there, on the order of 10 customers walked in. Several were obviously regulars known by name. A couple did get out before me, but their work was very simple. I did not feel I was being pushed aside in favor of others. Once my work was completed, I was given my keys and was able to quickly complete the transaction. No waiting for someone at the counter. I was also given information on overall condition of my tires and what to watch for. They did not try to sell me anything I did not need, and did not give me any dire warnings if I didn't buy something else. This is what local shops (or any store for that matter) should strive to be. A place giving straight information and making sure their customers are treated right.

They were recommended by a friend. I usually take my car to the dealer but just got tired of paying those outrageous amounts. These shop was so nice and very patient. They thoroughly checked out my car and told me everything that was wrong with it. I explained that my funds were limited and they worked with me on pricing and allowed me to pay it off weekly. It took 4 weeks for me to get all the money but they did not charge me extra for storage or anything. When I got my car back it sounded like a new car! The engine was tight and no sensor lights was on I was so happy with its performance it felt like a new car. Thank you so much A to Z my BMW 645ci is the BOMB AGAIN!!! read more

The VSC light, Anti-lock brake light, Power-steering light and word BRAKE showed up on my dashboard 3 weeks ago, so I took my Toyota to the dealership Midlands Toyota on Killian so they could tell me what was going on. After charging me $167 to run the diagnostic test, they told me that the Brake Master Cylinder and brake booster pump assembly needed replacing to the tune of $4,400. I asked the representative if this was covered under recall or warranty. He said no. I called later that same day to Midlands Toyota to ask the same question in hopes of getting another representative who would actually look. I was told no--it wasn't covered and that I'd have to come out of pocket for the cost. I called a family friend and mechanic and he recommended Chapman's Auto Tech. I went over there and talked to Mike. I showed him the diagnostic from the dealership and asked what would they charge me to replace these parts. He gave me a lower estimate for the total job. Not only that, Mike and Robert (the owner) told me that they have a year warranty on parts AND labor. I left my car with Chapman's Auto Tech. While waiting for the parts to come in, I got a call back from Chapman's. Robert asked me if I was sitting down. He told me that Mike took the time to do some digging and made phone calls to Toyota. Sure enough, the whole job WAS COVERED under the warranty. He found it written plain as day in the Customer Support Program. It seems to me that someone at Midlands just wanted to skim $4000+ from me instead of doing their job and honoring their own Customer Support Program. Chapman's Auto Tech could have done the same, but these guys actually mean what they say when it comes to customer satisfaction and being an honest business. Chapman's has been in business over 32 years. Seriously, if you have car troubles in the Columbia Midlands area, try Chapman's Auto Tech first. They really are good guys. It is refreshing to know there are still honest auto repair companies out there!
