I have been coming to Killian for a few years, to get my oil changed and one minor issue. Friendly people and quick service. I was just there to have my front rim and bent tie rod replaced on my semi new 2025 Genesis. To not hit a dog I turned away from it and slid into the curb and damaged my rim and bent the tie rod. Killian did a great job, but Genesis was faulty on the tie rod. They sent the wrong part due to a wrong part number that they acknowledged. All in all was a great experience, and they did not charge for their loaner car. read more

Very thorough and knowledgeable. If you are looking for a shop that is honest and trustworthy with great communications thrown in this is it. Bobby, service advisor, is awesome. They seem to have a very loyal clientele. They also back up their work with a great warranty. read more

We had our brakes and some other issues fixed on our Highlander recently at Killian. They were up front and honest about any issues, and realistic about what needed to be addressed right now. Our service adviser, Bobby Light, did a great job communicating the issues covered in the estimate, fair pricing, and when the vehicle was ready. It's not easy to find an all-around solid service shop these days, but I will absolutely take my vehicle back to Killian. read more

I would not recommend this place because of the problems I had working with them. They are punctual and don't drag their feet and courteous, but they forget to put everything back together properly and do a sloppy job. read more

Warning. Overpriced. Overpriced. Overpriced. Overpriced. They will try to screw you. Go anywhere else. Knowing they lowered the amount when I got there after I said it was ridiculously high. They know they are screwing people. Go anywhere else. Joke of a place. read more

Update: The problem was in fact the ECM. I had informed the service advisor that I had already replaced the coils and spark plugs with OEM ACDelco and that I suspected an ECM issue. I was met with the excuse that because the scanner could communicate with the ECM that all was fine and was again pushed to spend $1000 instead of diagnosing the issue like I had asked. Again instead of pinpointing the issue they just want to change parts for profit. read more

My first visit but it will not be my last. Made an appointment to have my car serviced, as soon as I arrived I was greeted checked in and they started servicing my car. Great price for a full synthetic oil change and tire rotation. Shortest time I've ever had to wait for service to be completed. They did a courtesy check on my 2010 vehicle made suggestions with no pressure to do the work. I just became a new regular. read more

ALWAYS get a second opinion on any service they recommend. Three different times over the past couple of years they have recommended repairs that didn't need to be done. 1st- need a new battery- we took it to Auto Zone to check the battery, it was fine. 2nd- you need new wheel bearings- took for a second opinion, your wheel bearings are fine. A couple of weeks ago they told me we needed new brake fluid- just heard from my 2nd opinion, the brake fluid is fine. All of these recommendations have come from basic oil changes. I will say the place is always clean and customer service is great but just get second opinions. read more

I was in need of some suspension work on a 2012 Boss 302 mustang, so I checked out a few auto repair businesses. After checking out all the web sites and getting some quotes, I realized some shops didn't have the experience and they passed on the job. The Ford dealership was almost twice the price and it ironically, was their parts. Meredith, the service advisor, got back to me in a timely manner and was very helpful from start to finish. The quote was very reasonable and the experience made it an easy decision to go with Killian Automotive. They have the price, the staff, the reputation and a very organized repair facility with the latest equipment. They finished the job and did it right. I'll be using them in the future and Will recommend them also to friends and family. read more

Outstanding customer service, quality, and attention to detail. Took care of a multi turbo issue on Ford Escape, identifying quality issue on replacement OEM part and delivery delays from Ford. Provided me courtesy car during duration of the 3+week repair. Provided regular updates and ensured my daughter's car was ready, safe, and reliable for her College adventure to Missouri. I am now sold on Killians and their family friendly business. Great job!!!! Rob read more

For $180 they will make your car worse AND add you to a text list. I wouldn't bring my car back here if they paid me to

This is my first review of Killian Automotive. I took my Yukon XL 20115 they did a oil change and a full inspection of it. Very honest inspection and excellent shop super clean and loaded w all equipments and professionals . From now on this would be my favorite place to take all our vehicles. Highly appreciated and recommended! Ray Beato Canton ga read more

Beware with European cars! I called and asked if they can do an oil change on my Audi S4 which the response was "yes". After my oil change ONLY visit to Killian, tow to Eurofed, and $600's later, I was back on the road. After I got home there was a puddle of oil in my garage. Towed to Alpharetta and the quote from Eurofed - "Massive oil leak coming from oil drain plug and Oil filter housing, covering most of engine in oil..." Manager (Darryl) did give me a call to make things right financially. Update: General Manager Darryl sent a check with an apology letter stating training will be performed in-house. 5-stars for customer service! read more

I went here for a quote on having a rebuilt engine installed after the Ford dealership told me I needed a new engine in my 2006 F150. I figured a non-dealership Ford certified service location would be less expensive. I told them I needed a new engine based on what the dealer told me. Their response was "how about we check things out first". Bottom line is they could have sold me a new engine but instead sold me some much less expensive repairs. I trust them and have been back many times for normal service on my vehicles. It's worth the drive when you find someone you trust. Ask for Darryl. read more

I'm really appreciative for the team at Killians Automotive, especially Sean. He's just been the one that I've worked with so far and he's remained so kind and patient with my car continuing to have a mind of its own ‍ I would highly recommend Killians b/c they're knowledgeable and reliable and will work well with you. They're reasonably priced and do a great job! Thank you Killians for making me a happy customer read more

My air conditioner in my 2011 Lincoln stopped working on my way to visit my son and his family. I live in NC and they're in Canton. My husband looked up shops to bring it to and Killian's was the place he thought I should call, this was July 3. They told me to bring it in July 5 at 8:00 am. After they looked at it, it was the condenser, so they said it should be ready by that Friday. After three days,different deliveries of the parts ( parts delivered at 1:30 in the afternoon) , they came in damaged each day. My daughter and her children were with me and she had to get back to NC for work by Wednesday, she found a person to fill in for her Monday and Tuesday. She rented a car to get back home. My car was fixed by Tuesday and they (Killians) were very nice and rebated me the cost of the rental car off my bill total. read more

Hands down the best car/truck repair shop I've ever been to. From the scheduling, to the technicians showing me the problem with pictures, to the very reasonable rates, you can tell the owner of this place genuinely cares about serving his community and not just making a buck. Highly recommended!! read more

My tail light went out. I called Killian to "work me in" they had me in and out in 15 minutes. They checked my tires too. The service at Killian is exceptional, I rate it 5 Stars, same service that I get from RBM of Alpharetta and Ferrari of Atlanta. I own a F450 and they are one of the very few that can work on a large commercial truck. My last appointment with Killian involved a failed sensor, they went through my truck with "a fine tooth comb" I had two front bald tires replace and they even made arrangements to have my truck detailed for me from a second party vendor. I forgot to mention my bill was only $11.35 for the taillight read more

My second visit to Killian. Only oil changes so far. Going to an auto shop that I'm not familiar with is extremely scary. They have made me very comfortable and well taken care of. Thank you guys ! read more

I took my car in this morning for an oil change and the customer service was excellent! I had my toddler with me so it was nice that they had a kid's play area in the waiting room. I was going to get an additional service but the man was honest and told me that it didn't make sense to do it at this time. read more

I LOVE this place. Let me first say that as a woman, getting my car serviced is my least favorite thing to do. I was tired of the chains and the subpar service I would receive. The waiting rooms were a joke and bathrooms gross. To walk into Killian's Automotive was literally a game changer. They had a nice, CLEAN waiting area, water, Keurig, his and her bathrooms and even a play area for the kids. I was thrilled and kept telling them how awesome they were. I was in and out in less than 45 minutes. Great service, friendliest staff and will never go back to another place. This is the one for us! read more

I scheduled an oil change for my Subaru. I normally go to the dealer but they are too far for a quick visit. Found Killian nearby with great customer reviews. I called to schedule an oil change and from the minute they answered the phone to the following day appointment until I left with my car, they were professional, friendly, communicative and worth every penny. I will definitely go back. read more

Great customer service. They also take pictures of the work they are doing or the general inspection of your car. Many car places will give you a laundry list of repairs that your car needs and make them all sound urgent - just so they can make $ immediately. I hate those type of scare tactics. At Killian, they advise you of upcoming items to be aware of, but inform you that you do not need this yet. I like that I know what is coming, but they tell me I should get XX amount of miles or time before I need it. read more

I've been using these guys for over eight years and they have been great. They have brought my cars back from the brink of death multiply times. There prices and service are great and they will tell it to you straight on what's wrong and needs to be done. If you are looking for great mechanic then these are the guys. read more

Killian Automotive - Auto Repair Near Me - Canton, Georgia

See all

Exceptional service friendly employees and they told me everything I needed to know detailed. Will definitely be going back

I have been dealing with Killian since they were a "Ford" only shop, and now I don't let anyone else work on my vehicles, regardless of make. These folks will take good care of you and your car, and you will not be sorry for giving them your business. They are not the cheapest in town, but they are worth it. They've done clutches, brakes, water pumps, and even an engine rebuild for me, and I'll be back the next time I need service work. read more

Complete bait and switch. Called for a quote to get rotors replaced on my vehicle after getting a quote from the dealership. They quoted me $800 cheaper than dealer So I took it in. then they called with a laundry list of suggested repairs since it was my wife's vehicle let them do the work. When I went to pick it up price went up $800!!! Was told that quote was only good for non guaranteed parts and had they used them nothing would be warrantied. top it off found out we had just had full service at Audi dealership for what they charged extra as recommendEd repairs. Found out their technicians and service manager are all paid on commission so whatever more they can charge they make! I will never take another vehicle to them. Beware!!! read more

They are absolutely the worst place in Cherokee county took my truck in to have it serviced they told it would be done the next day and here we are a week later still no truck the mechanic broke a valve spring gasket and will not take responsibility for it TAKE YOUR VEHICLES SOME WHERE ELSE read more

My car had a nail in the tire! I thought,This I is Great it will give me time to answer a few e- mails! By the time I could return two, my car was finished! Was not surprised! Received the usual fast/Excellent service! .Thanks Guy's! read more

Very disappointed!!! I have been using Killians' for years for 3 different vehicles (family) and I just called to make an appointment for Saturday and was told that they are no longer open on Saturday!!! WOW!!! The only day that I am able to take my car in due to their weekly hours. AND...to add to that when I was there last time they talked me into buying one of their bonus cards and now I will won't be able to use that either. Wasted $$$$$. Very disappointed with them at this time. Linda T. read more

For the first of couple of times these guys have been grate. I get nice customer service and they do a very good job on my car. Now the price, it's seems a little expensive to get something done even when the car doesn't have to be picked up and won't even bend your knees, that's why I'm giving them a 4 star because of the price other then that they are great. I understand it's mainly labor cost but if it wasn't for a tool limitation/a tool I will only use once an year I would of done this myself. read more

I took my son's car in to have the alternator replaced. When I received the work order that was "based"on the diagnostic test. Aside from the alternator which I knew needed to be replaced they said there was a 2nd fault code and the upper O2 sensor needed to replaced. I declined the service because they wanted to charge me $400+. It's a easy repair especially when the O2 sensor is accessible by simply opening the hood. I looked the part up online and it was half the price I was quoted by Killian. After declining the service my service rep called and stressed the service needed to be performed because the check engine light would continue to stay on, I get worse gas mileage, and the car would not pass an emissions test without doing so. When I go to pick up the car I learn that Killian charges $100 diagnostic fee if you do not perform all of the services that they recommend. FYI, any auto parts store will do a diagnostic test for free. When we get it the car the check engine light was not on so I didn't order the part offline and just yesterday it passed an emissions test with no issues. I would have given them a 1 star review but they performed the service that was NEEDED fairly quickly. read more

My wife has been using Tim Lanier to service her car since he was in Woodstock running Lanier Automotive. We continued to use him after he bought Killian and moved his business to Canton. Since Killian is a long way from our home, I recently started using other shops that were closer to us. Yesterday I ended up taking my car back to Killian because the other shops just weren't working out. We've always been very pleased with the service that we got from them. read more

This shop is excellent. They do only the repairs you request, and even told me I didn't need a service because things were still in specs. Service is fast and the staff is very courteous. You can tell they take pride in the business, which is rare these days. read more
