I will NEVER refer anyone to Carolina auto again. Charging over $100.00 for a DAMN oil change. NO EXCUSE for it. Oh, wait, trying to get their money back from COVID. This is a real good way of NOT getting business. I will MAKE SURE that word of MOUTH gets out there. DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR HERE FOR ANYTHING AT ALL. read more

I'm from out of town... I travel around in my motorhome... My tow car is a 1986 Mitsubishi Montero... Not many people even remember that car let alone know how to work on them... Frank welcomed me with open arms fixed everything that needed to be done and then some... I found him to be fair and square the way you'd want it to be... as long as I'm in North Augusta this is the only place that I'll take my car for repair work... Job well done Frank... Thank all the guys in the back and the girl you have upfront ... by the way that upfront girl... Great on the phone and made me feel welcome from the first time I came into your shop read more

Carolina Auto Repair is the BEST Auto Repair shop I have ever experienced! Frank and his team work above and beyond to get any job completed. No matter how small or big the job, I was satisfied! I have gone to this establishment for a restoration on a 75 Impala and to get standard work done on all my vehicles. I know I am going to get the most fair price and top notch service. I would recommend Carolina Auto to anyone that is looking for a wonderful and professional experience for their vehicle needs!!! read more

I was having problems with my car and wasn't sure what was going on with it . I was actually having Carolina to tow it to the dealership but was told they had a shop . They figured out the problem in just a couple of hours and it ready the very next morning . Saved me a lot of money too ! Thanks again ! read more

I used to use Carolina Auto Repair for all my vehicles but once the owner began to work with me I decided I didn't want to support someone who was so rude and condescending. It went to the best customer service to the absolute worst. If you want to be treated like you are too stupid to exist and if you want to be overcharged then this is the place for you. The other guys were great but I won't be back if I have to run the risk of his rudeness. read more

I'm from out of town and Carolina auto bailed me out while visiting family. I did my first brake job with my father in law and saw some smoke. They got me in at closing time and looked over the brakes and gave me piece of mind. Brakes were ok but their opinion was worth the diagnostic fee. Thanks guys. read more

I had my Volvo wagon fuel pump replaced here. The moment I got my car back, there were more things wrong with it than before I took it there: fasteners and caps were left off under the hood, my entire left side blinker chain didn't work, and my battery died less than a week later. Maybe worst of all, they had to remove the back seats to get to the pump. I later found that they didn't replace them correctly. They were misaligned and some of the bolts were not even screwed down all the way. Also, don't count on the "coast-to-coast, nationwide coverage" warranty the claim to have. I called their 800-number. There is not a single member within a reasonable driving distance from my home. And when I requested them to reimburse me for their shoddy work, their excuse was that "we have no proof that we were the ones to cause the issues." read more

Beware!!! You might get a good deal as some people say they have or you might get cursed out!! I called and talked to a friendly man on the phone when I called to make an appointment. When I arrive to drop off my car, I am told there is no appointment and that the person who promised booked the appointment, Frank, does not know what he is doing. And no, they can't promise to work on my car today. When I tell him that I will take my car elsewhere he tells me not to come back. I wonder who p^%&ed in his cornflakes because this was 8am and not once did I raise my voice to him. I am glad that I did not spend any money at this establishment but good luck to you if you chose to do so. read more

Yay! I can't say enough good things about this company and John and Milton in particular. They were able to figure out and fix my '88 Mustang and now the car runs better than it has in years. When my battery died a few days after the repairs I called John and he sent someone out to my house to give me a jump and test the battery to see if it needed replacing, which it did. I got back to the shop and had a new battery put in in no time. These guys have taken the best care of me! I will keep going back to them for as long as I can. They are awesome and I highly recommend them! read more

This is long overdue. These guys were so great. I was having trouble with my battery and they checked it out for me and told me where I could find the battery I needed and even how I could get a great deal! They didn't charge me a thing and they even said to bring it back for installation if the battery store won't install it for me. They were so nice and helpful! Thanks again!!!! read more

( Side note-but still good looking and still a great performance car!) Manny told me if not fixable, after market light kits may be the solution. I told Manny, do what you can. Two hours later I get a call from Manny- the lights are working! I asked what was the problem? He said "well we started the vehicle, turned on the headlights and they are on, both sides." "What" I said. "Ok, i'll be there in an hour to pick up the car." Drive down to Manny's, go in office. Manny is in there, eating lunch. But he took the time out to explain what was done. It took all of ten seconds as he said, "we didn't do anything." I asked Manny how much did I owe him for his time and efforts. He said "Nothing, we didn't do anything!" Now- this is why I am taking the time to write this review- How many times have we ever went to an auto repair shop and paid Nothing! Go anywhere else and it's a fee that is the Arm and Leg!

Have a Acura- Bring it to Manny's Service Center. Honest people in the auto repair industry is a rare find. When you find one, you want to spread the word, I am spreading the word!

And what's more important, the costs were reasonable. What more can I say- go to Manny's Service Center. It's a no frills place.

They said if I wanted to try a plug that I should go to the Sweetwater BP, so that's what I did. It's a bit of a confusing setup because it's a gas station but they do auto shop work there as well. I parked and went it and had to wait about 15 min with my son before they were able to fit me in but then I just drove my car up to a door and the tech had me stay in the car and it took 5min or less for him to get the plug in. I know plugs can be a risk and they don't always work but they only charged $15 for the plug so I figured it's a risk worth taking and by golly it's lasted me a couple months now. I don't think it'll last forever but I'm happy to extend my tire's life as long as I can! The waiting area is SMALL and cramped, and not at all ideal for bringing a baby or toddler (I had no other choice). Not a super clean space but pretty on par for auto shops and I appreciate them getting me in quickly and doing a solid job.

Carolina Auto Repair is a great shop. Have been going here for years, and I recommend them to anyone. Advance auto scanned my car, sold me parts I didn't need. After the aggravation, I called on Carolina to diagnose my car, they did, correctly! It was only a $90 repair after advance sold me $200 worth of parts. Returned parts to advance, told advance how disappointed I was with the whole situation. The manager told me they were not an automotive shop and they don't always get it right with their scanner. So I hope this review helps someone not get their hopes up with parts stores diagnosing their vehicles. Find a trusted shop like Carolina Auto Repair, and get the repairs done right the first time! read more

I give Carolina Auto Repair 5 Stars! They have mechanics that I put all trust in. I had them do work on my 2002 Ford Explorer. The C/V Axles were bad, after taking it to 2 other places they either wanted to over charge me or not do it at all. I came to Carolina Auto Repair and they were the most friendliness and reasonable. They did the job the same day. I have since sold my Explorer and bought a new 2016 VW Jetta. I'd rather bring my car here instead of the dealership. read more
