I'm giving it a slightly higher review because the lady at the front was very kind…read more My car broke down last week and I had to get it towed to a shop to find out what was wrong with it. Once it was at the shop I figured I'd just "support a small business" and let them do the work. I get a call that they believe the issue is the spark plugs. The diagnostic isn't free (it's literally just plugging in a reader for the warning light) but they say they'll deduct some of it. I've worked on my car before and I have an idea of how long it took in my old cars because I did the work myself. But I didn't have a spot to do it, tools, or honestly...the time and headspace. They come back with $500 for diagnostic, parts, labor. Now I'm a little annoyed because I know spark plugs aren't that expensive, but I thought "maybe because it's a newer car it's harder to get to those parts so it'll take a bit longer". I agreed and let them do it. This is where it gets more annoying. They come back and tell me the $500 spark plug job didn't fix the issue and I need my ignition coils fixed and that brings the total to $1400! Now I'm actually mad. I said no thank you, I can figure something out later but I don't have $1400 lying around, the week of Thanksgiving, right before Christmas. The front desk lady is apologetic, she understands and tells me she'll call me back. She knocks $50 off the job I get my car back. Look...to be fair, my car needed a tune up 50,000 miles ago, and those spark plugs were dead (good job Mazda on making good parts). But $1400 was nuts. THEN I looked up how to change the ignition coils on my car and I was overtaken by rage. The spark plugs would've taken them no more than 30 minutes. The most expensive spark plugs at any auto parts place would've cost me $100 tops, they charged me $160. The ignition coils are expensive, and at an auto place would've cost $600. I paid $300 for all 4 and they arrived in 2 days. The work...to change the ignition coils took 10 MINUTES, 10 MINUTES. That means that this shop charged $164 for 20 minutes of work on the spark plugs. Then wanted to charge an additional $300 for 15 minutes of work on the ignition coils. Which BTW, if they had done all of the work at the same time would have been 30 minutes tops because you have to remove the ignition coils to get to the spark plugs.

They did their usual fine job. when I went to update my maintenance record for my car I noticed I had a brake fluid exchange done last November only 3000 miles since!!! I kicked myself up and down for ordering work I didn't need. Damn! When CARZ texted me to ask how everything was I shared my frustration and asked them in the future to please check my records when I request service to avoid me having unnecessary work done as I should have done. They blew me away and credited my account for the cost of a brake fluid exchange even though it was my fault. Wow this is a new wonderful experience for me.

On top of that, grease was left on my driver's seat, and despite having an appointment made two days in advance, the service took nearly two hours for a routine oil change and tire rotation. I expect much better attention to safety and professionalism.

I wanted to write a review for Smith Family Tire because they treated me like gold yesterday. I…read morecalled them about an issue with my brakes and they were able to schedule an appointment just a couple of hours later. I'd already called several other automative shops that were closer to my home and all of them were booked out for days to weeks. That was concerning because I needed something right away so that I drive my car safely. I had been to Smith before and was treated well in the past, so I suspected that I would receive excellent service once again. After explaining my issues to them, they said they didn't want me driving unsafely, so it appeared that they made me a priority. THAT was the first amazing piece to my experience. I took the car in and they determined what was going on with the back end, and also pointed out that I had an issue on the front end of the car. As it turned out, I needed new rotors and pads on the front end, which was a bit of a shock, but that's how life unfolds sometimes. There was also more of an issue on the back end that was unexpected as well. Smith discovered that a part that was supposed to be installed to help the pads stay on straight was actually never installed by the previous automotive shop. It was good to know, but disappointing to say the least, as I had trusted that shop over the years to do good work. Not anymore...I will never know if this was intentional or an oversight, but I'm sure that it caused the rear pads to have less longevity. Regarding the rear end, Smith said that they could straighten the rotors out for me which sounded like the right thing to do in that moment, so I went with it. They worked as fast as they could and I was out of their shop 2-3 hours later. When I went to leave, I heard a new noise, so I went back in to let them know. Long story short it had nothing to do with their work, it was related to a metal part on my spare tire that had come loose. After two attempts to determine what was causing it, the mystery was solved, and I was able to get back on the road safe and sound. The folks at Smith are the real deal, and I can't say enough good things about the quality of their work! Thank you to Mike and his crew for being so amazing to me! I will be back when the next issue arises! See you all then, but hopefully not sooner than later... Jennifer E

I am overwhelmed by the kindness and competence demonstrated at this establishment…read more Story time: I was about to go on a long trip across several states and decided to FINALLY go to the nearest Toyota dealership to deal with all those recalls they've been sending me. I asked them to do a general check up as well...why not? I waited 4hours and was finally told that they were hearing a "grumbling" or "shaking" sound from my alternator. They told me it would be a $800ish dollar replacement. Yikes. Well, I know the dealership always overcharges for new parts, so I went to my local mechanic: Mr. Tire on Hendersonville Road. I asked them to check out the alternator, the bearings in the air compressor and bearings in the fan (not a car person, but my grandpa is and I repeated his words verbatim). I didn't wait long, but the "gent" (using the term VERY loosely) told me that not only was the alternator busted and making noise, but so was the belt around that...so the price had gone up to over $1000. Guys, I don't know anything about cars beyond checking my oil, but I do know when someone is trying to take advantage of me. I'm very much an independent woman, but I felt so completely helpless. No one was telling me the truth, no one was taking me seriously, no one was listening to what I was asking them to do. And that guy at Mr. Tire was 110% lying through his teeth. THANK GOD a fellow customer told me about Auto Pro. I called them in the parking lot of Mr. Tire and explained my situation to a very frank, down-to-earth, and incredibly understanding lady named Jen (Jennifer). She asked if I could come in within the next 10minutes before the mechanics went to lunch. I immediately said yes. As soon as I arrived, I explained my problem and was met with empathy and kindness. Jen called one of the mechanics in, explained the problem with the words I used and told Wade to, "Treat this young lady right! We want the TRUTH!" Hysterical. Wonderful person. I had been near tears because of how completely powerless I felt. She made me laugh and assured me that she and Wade would take care of me. I believed her. Within the hour, Wade was back. He told me that Toyota and Mr. Tire probably never even checked the alternator...it was in near-mint condition. So was the belt. Mr. Tire is clearly full of cold-blooded leeches. It was the air compressor, just like my Grandpa suspected. Auto Pro listened to me. They cared. They got results and WHAT'S MORE: they told me that the part was just over a year old and that I should go to the place I bought the replacement from originally and see if it was still under warranty. Incredible integrity and customer service. I am never going to another mechanic in Asheville. Not even for an oil change. Jennifer and Wade went above and beyond to help me. Thank you both so much.
