Vanessa and Johnathan are wonderful! I was rear ended in my company truck at 55 mph in Wilmington…read moreMay 28th. Searched for a body shop and found these wonderful folks. They had my truck fixed in a few days, when originally they said 2-3 weeks. They constantly kept me updated. I just picked it up and it looks perfect. I was worried it sat there for a couple weeks waiting for insurance to pay them, but they were so kind and patient. Highly recommend them. If my other cars ever need body work I'll for sure come here, plus they are so close to home. Thanks again!

These folks only want to disassemble your car so you cannot drive it. Caliber Collision would not…read moreput my bumper back on after they took it off, even though I tried to pay them to. They wanted $200 to put the front bumper on after they took it off, and I agreed. It seemed a little high but I just wanted my car back after the estimate. Then they reneged. They only want to drain you and the insurance company for storage and other non-repair charges. This is the only negative review that I can remember writing. I usually assume any business can have a bad day. This is not that; there is something else going on. I only asked for an estimate. Hendricks Collision did an estimate and was very accurate and professional. Unfortunately, I thought local would be better and took it to Caliber Collision in Boiling Spring Lakes for final approval in case it could be fixed locally. Bad mistake. I want to emphasize that they took unilateral action to hinder and delay me getting my car back, to maximize their profits at my expense. THEY WERE ONLY DOING AN ESTIMATE AND TRIED TO KEEP MY CAR. You know the word for this.

The gentlemen at Browning Tire & Auto are experts in their field, explain automotive issues clearly…read moreto those (me) who are not fluent in 'car,' are reasonably priced and quick! They are customer focused in a genuine manner - not fixed on selling services or products that are not necessary. There's nothing like walking into the office and being remembered after only a couple of visits. They even drove me home...I'm close to Browning, but it's still a lovely gesture. I recommend this business to anyone with a mechanical problem, tires going bad, 'funny sounds' (yeah, that's my specialty), or even just the annual inspection. Hands down, my favorite auto shop in Wilmington!

I was visiting my mother-in-law in Wilmington for Christmas vacation and realized one of my tires…read morehad a slow leak from a small nail. My wife took the car to Browning two days before Christmas and paid $38 to have the tire patched. She was assured that not only was the tire patched successfully, but that all four tires were checked carefully for any other nails. So far, so good. Except that we woke up Christmas Morning to find the tire in question completely flat. I swapped the tire out with the spare, and found two other nails in the same tire. Well, you know, these things happen, I'm a reasonable guy and I dropped of the tire on the 27th (first day they were open after Christmas). They once again patched the tire, once again charged me $38. I asked what pressure they filled the tire to, was told 35 PSI but when they checked it, it was only 25 PSI. Now, if it was me, I would have assumed that there was still an active leak - not Browning, they filled up the tire, sprayed a little water on the hole they had just patched, pronounced it "repaired" and sent me on my way. You guessed it, went flat again. So we're buying a new set of tires for the Expedition - not from Browning however. There are shops with much better prices who do their work correctly the first time.

The following morning after waiting approximately 1 hour past the scheduled time I called back and spoke with the same woman and was told that there had been a computer/scheduling glitch but that a truck would be dispatched right away. She was very apologetic and offered the tow at no cost. The driver arrived about 30 minutes later and was very professional and got my truck to the repair shop straight away. This inconvenience, which at best was only minor for me, did show me that there are small businesses out there that care about their customers and will go out of their way to make something right. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Had a $700+ brake job done on Acura. Specifically asked that car be checked for any problems…read more Assumed that everything looked good under the car. Recently, while driving on Hwy 17, the CVC joint on passenger side went and sent the car off into the on-coming lane. Fortunately no one was hurt and there was no wreck. Had car towed to repair shop, it was put up on a lift, and the mechanic said that the passenger side CVC joint was completely shot and the other didn't look too good. These problems existed when the car had the brakes redone but not one mechanic said anything about the CVC joints. This was a life threatening situation. I can't recommend anyone going to this automotive business because they don't seem to care.

Arrived and to my surprise all the different types and styles were neatly laid out and the staff answered all my questions. I was determined I needed a hard three piece cover that runs about $850. When I explained what I NEEDED a soft cover trifold was perfect. $370. When I asked about installation the staff said they could do it today and that I could do it by myself in about 20 mins. As I am finishing paying for my cover and the installation (because I am lazy) I walk out and 2 staff members are finishing up my cover. This took 2 people 5 mins MAX. Super happy with the down selling and they were correct my cover does exactly what I need.
