Had a flat tire, slow leak. They fit me in, same day, took 15 minutes. SUPER reasonable rate…read more Amanda was, as others have noted, excellent on the customer service side, and taking care of the flat repair herself. I'd used this business before, and knew the owner had retired - Now turning it over to this younger group. Same vibe, same super reasonable cost, excellent customer interface. I also asked about a brake job on my Jeep, to which Amanda said, of course, they were just finishing one up now. Brilliantly, she offered they don't automatically replace the rotors -which is a wonderful high profit job for the usual shops, but often not necessary. That was beyond refreshing. This business is a keeper. It's a low overhead shop, so no glitzy outer building and signage, or waiting room (they do have a small spot, complete with a happy dog.) Don't be put off by the exterior - they are a rare bargain. 5 stars easily.

Not a single person actually does what they're supposed to do. I parked exactly where they told me to. Never going here again, this has happened before!

(There was not enough charge in the battery to get the car back to South Nags Head, let alone back to Kill Devil again) Called Billy's, he said he couldn't get to it until the 7th, to bring it to him. He looked at it, ordered the alternator from 2 1/2 hours away, called Thursday morning to pick up my car!!! Very nice man, highly recommend!!!

Had a flat and they got me in right away and took care of me. Great customer service! Thanks guys!read more

While on our family vacation in OBX, the alternator in our Toyota Highlander went out. At the time,…read morewe didn't know it was the alternator until we replaced the battery and checked it at the local Auto Zone. I then googled mechanics near me. OBX Affordable Automotive Repair was one of the top shops. I read the reviews and told my husband that we should drive over. I have to say that Jeff is an impressive mechanic! He got us in, replaced the alternator in about 2 hours! He's an honest, straightforward person. We genuinely appreciate him helping us out in this situation being so far away from home. Would definitely recommend! Thanks Jeff!

They are efficient with time and even offer you a ride when your vehicle is needing an extended amount of time. Most importantly, they actually honor their warranty for services and for that I am so grateful. Would give 10 stars if that was an option.

They helped me out while I was here on vacation. No charge to have my car looked and evaluated…read moreafter I ran over a part from a boat (it fell off in front of me while driving down the highway). My mind was put to ease with the evaluation, which was greater than I expected -- truly surprised me with the thoroughness. They gave an honest appraisal of all the things my car needed, including a mindfulness towards the oil, and new front tires (which I clearly needed before running anything over), and assured me I was good for the return trip home without any immediate repairs or parts done in their shop. I followed through with their advice when I did get home, including getting new tires, and it truly made a difference in how the car was driving. Wish they were my home mechanic!!
