I'm surprised at just one review!…read more As an "out of town" traveler, I have to say that if your in the area of Greenville, have any auto problems, Porters is the place to go. I stopped there after cutting a tire on my new 2018 Tundra. Not only did the young man patch up the tire, he went a step further and removed the spare from under my truck, balanced both tires, swapped rims with the damaged tire, replaced the spare under the truck. He gives me a bill of $40.00. After all that efficient work, I was very pleased with the work and the bill. I was pleased to give the young man a $10.00 tip. Thank You Porters.

I had already gotten a strange vibe from them. Came back the next year because it was close, they told me there was a very expensive issue. Was going to be about 2k and I needed new brakes... So I told them I'll figure it out. Went to this shop, told them what the last place said, they could have sold me BS, and I would never know. They gave me every available option, even told me I could probably fix some of it on my own if I was inclined. I had them fix everything. At the end of everything it went right over half of the last place's estimate, and what do you know, I didn't need new brakes.

I asked how much it would cost to grease the caliper pins and was told that it would take about an hours worth of labor. Late the next day I got a vm stating that the truck was ready for pick-up. When I picked the truck up, the bill was over $450. The caliper and brake shoes and brake hose had been replaced. I didn't ask for that. At the very least, I should have received a phone call with the update that was necessary. I would have asked him put it back together and repaired it myself. On top of that, he couldn't produce the take-out parts. His response was that he was just trying to make a living. This is a small town. Stuff like that generally doesn't happen here.

They are fast, friendly and take time to go over everything with you at Brewer. They even took time weeks later to check the pressure and all when the car read that the pressure was wonky, free of charge and with a reassuring attitude--and this was from the youngest member of the team. It was a great experience all around and I have no qualms about recommending them.

I am a mechanic by trade, and KNOW what parts cost. From my math, there was a 100%markup on parts, and the Service Writer called me and made me to think the front end of my vehicle was about to fall out. Wanted to replace all the brake hoses, rotors, and brake pads, to the tune of $1,100.00. I instructed them to simply replace the seizing the caliper, and the brake pads on that caliper, which he said were "completely cracked in half" due to the heat, which I doubt due to the short distance I drove after determining the problem. So when I came to pickup the vehicle, I went over the bill with the service Writer, and had him explain each of the charges line by line from his computer. He seemed reluctant to print me my copy first, which after going over my own after picking up the vehicle REALLY PISSED ME OFF! WHAT THE HELL is a "Preventive Maintenance Labor" for $73.00? I was charged 1/2 hour labor to replace the one side of brake pads, which is simply removing them from the defective brake caliper to the new one. So with a $154.00 per hour labor rate, they screwed me $77.00 for that. They bled one brake caliper, but charged me $154.00, the same price as bleeding all 4, and $55.00 for brake fluid, which was probably one cup to replace. In my professional opinion, this was a $300.00 job, at best. I REALLY feel sorry for people who have no mechanic knowledge spending EVEN MORE money, when they call you and scare you into believing their BS assertions of your vehicles issues. I will NEVER come back to this sham business again!
