It took me 5 months, 15 calls, and 4 in person visits to get a claim submitted (I was ghosted by numerous people, including by the manager Cheyenne).

On top of that, they added an extra $50 charge on the invoice without clearly explaining what it was for. When I called to ask, the person told me it was "for materials they use in the shop like rugs and stuff." Honestly, that's the first time I've ever heard something like that. I had the same work done on the same car at another shop for almost half the price. Be careful and make sure to get a detailed estimate before agreeing to any work here.

They said it would be approximately an hour, and offered me a courtesy ride home. I decided to just wait. The waiting area was extremely clean. Very comfortable seating.

I was asked if I was ok & if I needed anything. They honored the coupon I received in the mail. Brought my vehicle up to the front door. Very nice experience. Highly recommend this business.

I had my dad look at the car and of course there was absolutley nothing wrong with my axel. They tried to get me to spend THOUSANDS on my car for something that isn't even broken or needing to be replaced.

This is a hard one to write. I've been a reliable customer for years, at least well over a decade…read more And I'm sad to say Gerald's isn't what it used to be. Let me start by saying the staff is always friendly. When you walk in, those working the registers, checking you in/out, etc. are always a pleasure to work with. While I have also had a positive experience with the techs, however, their attitude is not genuine. Recently I took my car in for new tires and an alignment. Long story short they put on the new wheels but said they couldn't do an alignment without first installing new balljoints, bushings and "might as well do the whole package and add control arms even though they're fine". Bringing what would have been a $600 job to $1,4000. Balljoints are $15-30, bushing $40- but if we wanted to do the "whole package" you're looking at roughly $200 max for a job that takes 1-2 hours. So where is the extra $600 coming from? Labor, right? Nope! Turns out Gerald's is overcharging an outrageous amount for parts. The numbers weren't adding up and I told them the new tires were fine and to bring my car down. I called a friend who has a renowned shop in Charleston for a second opinion because I had a gut feeling something was wrong. It was there he confirmed Gerald's was trying to screw me over and that my balljoints were perfectly fine and while the bushings had some wear, nothing was severe and they could have done the alignment. (Their shop successfully did it by the way with no issue and no issues popped up on my car from doing so. I also heard several horror stories from cars they had received after being at Gerald's.) I was able to inspect the balljoints and bushings myself and can confirm, everything was fine. Last year (January 2025) I had taken another car in for mechanical issues which I was overcharged for as well, so this isn't a new problem Gerald's is having. I was just hoping that would be the only time and that they might have fired those men who ripped me off. Instead, it looks like this is their new culture and they're digging their heels in. Get your tires done, sure, but anything else I would actively avoid them. They're right up there with Firestone on being some of the worst shops. Take their suggestions with a grain of salt and for the love of God get a second opinion before you let them take your money. I'm very fortunate I had someone in the industry I could call, but most places will do inspections for free or at minimal cost. It's worth it. Trust me!
