Sooooo my husband took my car to a Take 5 in Charlotte to get an oil change. They forgot to attach…read morethe engine cover or whatever they unscrew at the bottom of my car in the front. So the shits been scraping the ground. This past Friday I take my car to Firestone in Huntersville to get it fixed along with a few other things. Unbeknownst to me until I hit a bump on the way to Asheville for my birthday weekend , the shit is still hanging and scraping the road as I drive. Fast forward to today. I call Coxe this morning. They're crazy busy so I don't have any expectations. I call my husband to see if his friend who owns a shop about 45 min away can get it done. He can. I dont wanna have to drive out there just yet so I bring my car to Coxe like they advised. As Cat mentioned before it may take a minute to get to my car. It's all good. I'm waiting for only 2 min or less and Cat at the front desk told me they'll get to my car real soon once a lift opens. In literally less than 6 min my car is in the back. Wow! Also waiting in the lobby and the other lady is vacuuming asking me if she's disturbing me. Just friendliness and kindness all around. Then Aaron comes out and tells me that the front piece was being held up by zip ties. Thanks Firestone! Rather than telling me they need to order the parts from Honda like Aaron said, they pieced my shit together for it to just come down. Firestone in Huntersville did me dirty. I'm leaving a review there too. Aaron gave me the piece that was hanging down. Gave me the ONE screw that was there out of like 8 or so that I needed. AND THEY DIDN'T CHARGE ME!!! Thank you thank you thank you so much Kat and Aaron!!! If I ever need work done and have a visit coming up for Asheville, I'll just take my car here. I mean I love Asheville cause most everyone I encounter here are polite and kind, but this is some next level shit for me as a Black Woman. I'm typically on guard to ensure I'm not taken advantage of. Literally Aaron and Kat put me at ease.

They used OEM parts and were very competitive on pricing saving us over 40% of what dealer would have charged. An added benefit is they are within walking distance (about 0.4 mile} to downtown Asheville, so we dropped car off in am and spent night in town and picked it up the next morning. Car runs great. Very competent staff and impressed with knowledge and helpfulness of Teresa and Mason. We will definitely use them again!

I had went to this mechanic to have a plug on my AC compressor electro-magnet clutch replaced as it…read morewould intermittently cut out. Key word is intermittently. They took my car in, said they duplicated the problem and that a grey plug was loose. They plugged it in and it worked. Sure, okay. $100 to plug in a plug. At least I don't have to deal with it. Two weeks later my car has the same issue. I call up and the scheduler told me to come in the following Wednesday. I did just that, and when I came in, they told me it was the previous Wednesday and to reschedule... okay, fine. I went right home and ended up repairing the plug myself, which was different from the plug that they "plugged in". I video taped what the actual plug was and showed them it connecting to the compressor and asked for a refund. They told me to come back the next week when the owner was there. I came back and they said "the owner is at the other location but said no." So not only did they waste my time three times, but they stole $100 because their electrician of 30 years couldn't properly diagnose a simple AC electro-magnet clutch connector and still had to get paid. They told me it was fine when I took it, even though its an INTERMITTENT issue. Think twice before coming here for any electrical work or any work at all for that matter.

All there is to go on is a little sign by the road that says "Free A/C check"... I thought I'd check them out after my new landlord and a new neighbor recommended them highly, since they are 10 minutes from me and my 2005 Prius had an electrical issue that needed to be addressed. They are professional, knowledgable, car hobbiysts (that's always good in my book), they gave me a ride back home from the shop, then came and got me when it was ready!

Dolphin has done some extensive work on my older car over the years, some that was quite expensive…read moreand I've wondered about the quality of their work as the results seem less than spectacular. I don't know much about cars in general and tend to accept what a mechanic tels me. That said, I had some necessary work done by a mechanic at Dolphin automotive the week after hurricane Helene came through. All the other local auto mechanic shops were destroyed or out of service due to lack of electric and water service. I was charged $95 for diagnosis (? I already knew what was wrong with the car) plus $95 for a switch (??) and $95 for labor. My car ran just fine when I drove it into Dolphin's station that day. After the work was done, which by the way, did not involve the engine, the car started missing badly as soon as I drove out. Back at the mechanic, told me a part had been broken and I needed to replace the entire assembly. Denied having broken the part, which I find hard to believe. Why would my car run fine before they worked on it, to not run afterwards? As I stated before, Dolphin mechanics have worked on my car several times and have done an ok job, nothing outstanding. I now suspect they pad their invoices but can't prove anything, just like I can't prove the worker broke my part. However, after this last incident I will no longer patronize the shop and will not recommend them to anyone I know.

Rob has followed Mike's tradition of honest, fair auto repairs. Won't say they're the cheapest but my family can attest that many, many of the others are far more expensive. I will always put my money on honesty and dependability to avoid the horror stories that abound. The premises are spotlessly clean, the mechanics are attentive, and Rob is clarity itself in explaining problems.

The price is very reasonable and after it being recommended by several mechanics as the place to go for an affordable quality alignment, I looked up the address and phone number.

My steering was so true after leaving, that even if the steering wheel was released the vehicle would still continue in a perfect straight line. I would recommend this business just the same as several mechanics recommended it to me as the place to go for your alignment needs.
