Alas, I have found a new mechanic! Apparently, traveling to and fro in my Camry, I've racked up…read more238k miles. I started to notice a "whump, whump" sound coming from my front tire. While providing a constant beat to drive to (and practice freestyle rapping) is was irritating as hell! I took it to another shop and they told me the tie-rods (?) were bad...had them replaced... WHUMP WHUMP! Went back and had new struts put on... WHUMP WHUMP! DAYUM! Finally something kicked in and I decided to find a local reputable company and I really hit the jackpot with Darrell's. Here's why: 1) I found them online and they had great reviews. We all know the power of a good review from happy customers! 2) After I performed my freestyle rap of what was wrong with the car, the owner Terry said "Okay, let's go drive it." What?!? I didn't realize that the other place never drove my car!! I was thrilled! 3) The diagnosis and suggested repair conversations were amazing! It was like a medical diagnosis from a really compassionate doctor. Even with the unexpected additional service I needed to get my car in tip-top shape, never once did I feel like I was being lied to or taken advantage of. I'm really looking forward to a long vehicular relationship with this garage! Now to go drop this rap album! First single, "Do da Whump, Whump!"

Rented a car and came back to Darrell's at 8am and explained my symptoms. They knew exactly what it was likely to be (a suspension problem). I asked if it could be fixed on Friday so I could drive home. They did! And washed and detailed the car so when I picked it up Friday at 2:30 we could hit the road home confidently. Car handled perfectly. The repair was very reasonable. Great job by everyone at Darrell's. Highly recommended!

They aren't the cheapest but they also aren't the most expensive either - somewhere in the middle. I typically request an estimate prior to having a part fixed since i have financial constraints. They have been good about giving me a ring and letting me know the status of my car. The pic is one of our cars we had towed to Cloninger, we dropped it off overnight and left a note with our keys in the drop box. The next morning, they gave me a call and the vehicle was fixed and ready to go!

They didn't hook a plug back they unhooked and blew my engine. They laughed at me and said it was not unhooked, but I have pictures.

He was an employee and a van that was on a lift he operated fell on him. Since then their work has declined and people around here think less of them. I'm not threw with this.

I have a 2005 BMW x5, that I had towed to Bravo 4 Autowerks, due to it not cranking. They kept my vehicle for about 6 weeks and said I needed a new engine costing $9000 to $11000. Of course I said no and had my vehicle elsewhere, come to find out it was an crank shaft sensor, intake cam shaft sensor, and a exhaust cam shaft sensor costing $40 total in parts from amazon (after market brand). I am very disappointed in their handling of my whole situation!

Mark is a liar and will not communicate with you. Instead, Bravo4 kept my car for nearly 12 weeks without providing adequate updates on what they were doing or when it would be finished. I would call, and Marie, the desk assistant, would tell me she did not have any answers. Mark, the technician, was never there. He would be on vacation. My car sat there. I did not have access to what was going on regarding whether any repairs were done. April went into May. I would even go to the shop and appear in person to ask about the status of my car repairs, only to be told that they did not know and that Mark was not there. I made two or three appearances and called weekly about my car over the next eight weeks. April to May, May to June, BRAVO 4 had my car supposedly doing repairs totaling what I agreed to, $2,300. At the end of June, I told them I wanted my car back, repaired as agreed. When I got my car back, my stereo was no longer working, and the ceiling interior was falling out on my head because he left it out in the scorching sun over July 4, windows up tight. They closed the store after I called to say I was picking up my car, and I had to wait until Monday, July 6, 2026. I WOULD GIVE THEM A ZERO IF I COULD.

This business has provided me a quote over the phone, then after I dropped my car off called me back to say they miscalculated the estimate and that it will cost an additional $1,100 because they looked up the wrong parts. After going back and forth on the phone, they somehow came to a conclusion that it would only cost an extra $700. Pretty evident of price gouging. On the second occasion, they told me my only option to fix my car issues was to walnut blast the intake valves for $1400. I spoke with the mechanic on the phone and they claimed they had dealt with this same issue multiple times and were sure this was the only fix. I declined, and ended up finding a very obvious vacuum leak that cost me $8 to fix. It is very clear that this business is trying to take advantage of European vehicle service prices while providing inadequate work.

They were so kind and generous with their service. I've been to several Woodie's around Charlotte and Huntersville and I'm always so pleased with the service I receive.

I'll always go to a Woodie's when I have issues for that very reason and it's so great that their staff across all locations share the same mindset and practices.

When I looked at it myself I noticed that the tech had snapped the plastic off the box. I took the car back and pointed this out and after the manager called the tech to look at it the tech had the audacity to claim that "it was broken before it came in" I know this was not the case because I worked on the car the day of, and would have 100% noticed. Not only that, but you could see the bright white shiny filter through the crack he had just made. So the tech blatantly lied about that, and also lied about having checked the cabin air filter, because I had just replaced it a couple weeks prior and know that in no way did he take the time to check and just marked it as "urgent!" The shop did agree to replace the box, but being cheap did not do so with a new OEM Toyota part but instead bought a used and had the same tech install it and he broke this part too. Then tried to blame Toyota for making a cheap part. I know how this business goes, and know that these guys pray on customers who don't know anything about their car. If I had not called them out, my girlfriend would never have known that they broke her car (they also tried coming up with some bs about this not affecting anything). As seen in the attached picture that gap goes into the engine and they're out here saying "there's a screen that catches anything". Total bs In short, these guys lie, recommend unneeded replacements, and are overpriced.

If you're looking for lower cost through discount labor rates this is not the place. Your SIGNIFICANT cost savings come from this: I have had my car at a dealership several times over the years. The dreaded moment comes when the service writer comes out to tell you the bad news. You need 11 things (real number from one experience) done immediately. I thanked the service writer, asked for a copy and bought it to Compact. Two of the eleven were "Do it now" required. 7 were done as needed over the next 50 or so thousand miles. AND 120,000 miles later, two of the recommendations on that clipboard never came to pass. I can't begin to calculate my savings. But what is priceless is knowing I'm family and in good hands.
