Southeast Auto Paint Body &amp; Framework

I was mislead by the counter guy that they would assist me with a issue but they did not. I needed…read moreto get my transmission fluid and filter replaced for my warranty, it was a mistake on my part I did not catch the due mileage in time and went over a bit. I do get my oil changed every 3000 miles when warranty requires 5000 because I do take care of my truck, too expensive not too. Well they said they would "misread" my mileage so it would keep my warranty valid. I dropped by on Monday to make sure my truck would be services on Friday as it was when they could schedule me in, they did not tell me they would accommodate my request then or at our first conversation either. Picked it up on Friday and the counter guy said he could not change the milage because it was wrong to do so. But lying to me that he would is quite acceptable in his mind apparently. The owner came over and started telling me about its a battle repeatedly until I told him we are not in a battle we have a disagreement that's all. He raised his voice and kept telling in about its a battle in business and I don't understand and kept ranting on and on. I told him it was ultimately my fault because I missed the milage but I would have gone somewhere else that would done my request. If I wasn't able to find another company I would have just done it myself because it would be out of warranty anyway and save myself $660 which was my bill, pretty excessive actually.

We brought in our 2006 Volvo S60 because it was making a metal on metal noise. We had previously…read moretaken it to Brown Motor Works in Columbia and they couldn't figure it out. They just said it was getting older and just makes noise. Newman's figured out what the noise was and fixed it. We also had them put on new Shocks, Struts and new headlight assemblies. Our car runs like its on rails again. Very professional and friendly. Didn't try to up sell me anything like most mechanics will do. When you've traveled in the military, it's hard to find a trustworthy local mechanic...problem solved. I will definitely be back!

My go-to stop for car care! I found this shop in Sumter through the Carmax RepairPal service. They…read moreare knowledgeable and responsive. I scheduled my appointment for warranty service and brought my car in. I was updated regularly along the way -- informed of progress, delays, and any changes. One of the car parts was on back order and they got me in for installation the day it arrived. They offer a military discount. I also came one day with a really low -- almost flat tire -- and they got my car in to check it out immediately, while I waited. The employees are all friendly and I would recommend this business!

BEWARE of the bait and switch practice and defensive disposition at this SCAM shop. Our 2017 GLE350…read moreMercedes was brought to Car Care & Repair, LLC, for a solid yellow check engine light (minor issue) and shaking rear wheel. Cece(?), the front desk receptionist, quoted $126 for a diagnosis, and after that was done, another $126 for a more in-depth diagnosis, which is literally unheard of. Car Care & Repair LLC used the FIRST $126 to rack up a potential profit of $1,1817.30, minus $713 for two rear Continental tires. The remaining EXPLORATORY let-us-find-other-unrelated-BS-concerns-to-sell-you included the following replacements: cabin air filter ($133.56), engine air filter element ($215.47), Engine Coolant Expansion tank ($54.86), "BFLUSH" or break fluid flush ($120.43), Oil and filter change, synthetic ($134.53), and "align EURO" ($159.95). None of this had any relation to the check engine light, which O'Reilly diagnosed for free with the code for emission leak, generally related to a loose gas cap. So, Car Care & Repair, LLC, charges the SECOND $126 fee to diagnose the original problem, and claims the cost involved tools and equipment to locate the problem, which everyone knows is the cost of doing business. The owner said charges include his having to do an Internet search because the vehicle is a newer model. Again, COST of doing business. Why should a customer take the HIT of his lack of knowledge? Taking Scam Artistry to another level, Car Care & Repair, LLC, charges ALL CUSTOMERS A FEE FOR HAZMAT REMOVAL, regardless if they dispose of anything related to your vehicle or service. We were scammed $25.35. Now, ERIC, who identified himself as the owner was contacted for an explanation, not only was he initially rude, defensive, and obnoxious but failed to understand the concern with the fact that Car Care & Repair, LLC, FAILED TO GIVE NOTICE OF THE TWO DIAGNOSIS FOR THE ONE ISSUE. WHAT CAR CARE & REPAIR, LLC DID NOT KNOW: The vehicle is up-to-date on its scheduled maintenance service (A & B) by Mercedes and was recently serviced this year, a few months. The Servicer confirmed that an oil change and all items (SCAMS) are not necessary and to bring the vehicle in when in town to have the check engine light CLEARED. As for the tire replacements, Car Care & Repair, LLC, will not be doing that or any other jobs for our three vehicles. We'd rather drive the distance to an honest CERTIFIED Mercedes center or the dealership, being that none exist in Sumter. BEWARE of Car Care & Repair, LLC! Don't say you weren't warned. Unless you want to pay $280 to be told that the job will cost $266. NO thanks. Further SCAMMING DENIED! Car Care & Repair, LLC CAN NOT BE TRUSTED.
