Stay away from Modern Ford…read more Modern Ford took advantage of a student who was away from home by pressuring them into approving repairs without proper diagnostics. They compiled a long list of "issues" totaling over $6,000. We ended up paying nearly $1,600 for a coolant reservoir and a power steering pump (which the part had to be ordered and paid for upfront), plus an oil change, and they allowed the student to drive home afterward. Once the vehicle was inspected by our personal mechanic, we found multiple serious concerns. Modern Ford did not note a likely oil pump issue or the engine tapping caused by running with low oil. The engine was close to failing. These were critical problems that could have led to the engine locking up and potentially causing a dangerous accident, especially driving down the mountain. Yet none of this was flagged by their senior mechanic. Also, during the oil change, they did not check for metal shavings in the oil, which is a basic step when there are signs of engine damage. On top of that, the oil filter was jammed in place, and the oil used was not high mileage oil. We have called multiple times to get this addressed and have still not received a call back.

6/11/26 at Modern Toyota of Boone. 2016 Sequoia with just under 50,000 miles…read more We arraigned to have the oil changed and filter plus inspection. Arrived at 10:45 on time and I had two questions before we went to the waiting room. #1, Will the zirk fitting be greased in the drive train? ANSWER, I don't know but I can put a request on the work sheet. QUESTION con't. Have they bee greased in the past? ANSWER, I don't know and there is no way of telling. QUESTION con't, We have been bringing this car here for ten years and no one has ever asked. No answer. QUESTION con't, Can I talk to the guy doing the work? ANSWER, no. I was so upset at that point I turned down his sales pitch to have more stuff done, there is a closer dealer to us to go to. #2. At 25,000 miles you had to regrind my front rotors and now they need it again. ANSWER, It is our mountain roads and the way you drive. QUESTION con't, I am 86 years old and have been driving for over 75 years. I drive like the old lady going to church on Sunday. We don't drive down any steep roads but once every three months and our roads elevation change is around 200 feet where we drive. The guy tried to tell me that even on curved roads the rotors can wear uneven, ME but I'm not stepping on the brakes. I worked in metallurgy for more than 15 years and I know that cast rotors can have varied hardness and I suspect I got a bad pair. The guy started to argue with me so I just walked away I suspect the response from Toyota will be the typical canned defense, have at it but I don't think we will be going back.

This shop didn't just try to overcharge me -- they knowingly attempted to scam me and admitted it…read moreon a recorded phone call after ignoring the correct diagnosis I gave them and tearing my car apart hunting for a problem that never existed. Before my vehicle ever arrived, I clearly told them I believed the issue was the brake shoes and rear axle seals. That information was completely ignored. Instead, I was hit with a $2,845.86 estimate and told my rear differential was "locked up." That claim was flat-out false. They then went so far as to disassemble the car to support this fabricated rear-end failure, only to eventually admit there was absolutely nothing wrong with the rear differential at all. After tearing the vehicle apart and finding nothing, they conveniently circled back to exactly what I said from the beginning -- brake shoes and rear axle seals -- yet somehow the price came back nearly identical. Different lie. Same money. Then came the most insulting part of the entire ordeal. They claimed a job that is booked at roughly 5 hours of labor would somehow require over 9 hours. No complications. No rust. No damage. No justification whatsoever. Just made-up labor hours designed to inflate the bill. When I called them out on it, Paula and Jonathan (the manager) admitted on a recorded phone line that they were trying to overcharge me using false labor hours. That wasn't a misunderstanding. That wasn't a clerical error. That was an admission. As if that wasn't enough, the estimate also included overlapping labor charges, billing multiple times for work that happens during the same teardown -- a textbook padding tactic used to squeeze customers who don't know better. Because of their false diagnosis, unnecessary teardown, and constant rewriting of the story, my vehicle was effectively held hostage, forcing me to pay for a hotel and alternate transportation while they chased imaginary problems and inflated numbers. Every bit of that cost and stress was completely avoidable -- and entirely their fault. Here's the pattern, plain and simple: I identified the real issue before the car arrived (brake shoes and rear axle seals) They ignored it and invented a catastrophic failure They tore the car apart to justify that claim Found nothing wrong with the rear differential Fell back to my original diagnosis Kept the price nearly the same Nearly doubled the labor hours on paper Admitted on a recorded call to overcharging using false labor hours This was not incompetence. This was not miscommunication. This was deliberate, predatory behavior -- and they only backed off because they were caught, and started adjusting prices fast.

I had purchased a jeep many years ago from another Jeep dealer in town and had a miserable experience, so we went to Rubitrux. They are PHENOMENAL! All the guys are knowledgeable and helpful, but I especially love Clinton. He sold us a Gladiator Mohave that had 4000 miles on it for a very reasonable price. Great vehicle with 35" soft rock climbing tires. I bought a second set and had them studded for winter. He found me a used set of wheels for $400! We have a very large dog that goes everywhere with me, and the rear seat wasn't the safest for him. Clinton had 2/3 of the back seat removed and replaced with a locking goose gear. It eliminates the "leg room" space in back which is dangerous for the dog in an accident. Now I have a place in the car to really secure a firearm if I need to, and it's flat - perfect for a dog bed. The original owner tinted the windows really dark. I didn't notice it until the first time I tried to make a turn in the dark - couldn't see anything out the side windows. I took it back and the first guy who looked at it thought it would have to go back to the tinting shop. But one of their mechanics gave it a try and had the tinting off in 20 minutes. I've had the truck for about 2 years and other than modifications, oil changes and inspections, I haven't had to do anything to it. When I've taken it in for routine service, they've always given me a loaner. Even when they are crazy busy, Clinton works me in around my schedule. I spend most of the time alone in the mountains, and I'm 100% confident they will take care of my truck without taking advantage of my lack of car knowledge. They know Jeeps. Great guys, great company!

When I asked they gave very vague explanations as to why they couldn't get it registered in PA. They just said "it's a complicated process." Additionally, I was provided a temporary tag and was stopped by the police in Philadelphia who told me when they ran the tag number, nothing traced back to it. I reached out to the dealership regarding this issue and nobody has offered any explanation or resolution. Do yourselves a favor and stay away from this dealership.

This year we stayed in Beech Mountain which is 45 mins from Boone. This trip had taken a turn on Saturday... my husbands new truck (purchased 4 months ago) started acting up on a mountain while we were returning to our cabin on Beech Mountain from downtown Boone (not wanting to accelerate or go into any of the higher gears). We had my 2 year old son in the truck who was sick and we were just trying to get back to our cabin. My husband pulled over and found Team Chevrolet and we started in that direction (approx 20 mins away just praying we would make it) Once we arrived at Team Chevrolet my husband met two of the most helpful individuals we have ever met! Justin and Albert were in the service office when my husband entered and after taking a moment to listen to the situation we were in (pretty much stranded with a sick child not even being able to make it back to our condo) these two guys immediately started helping us. Albert came and jumped in the truck and drove us around diagnosing the problem just in that short 10 min ride ( the transmission was ruined)! Tears came to my eyes at that moment not knowing what we would be facing after the phone call with the dealership back home provided no reassurance. Albert assured us that we would be taken care of! Once back at Team Chevrolet Justin met with us and Albert and immediately got to work on the warranty portion of the situation. Please keep in mind that the dealership is not normally open on Saturdays for new service so these gentlemen went above and beyond to help my family! Albert assured us he would have a new transmission installed by Monday at 1! Justin drove my husband around town looking for a UHAUL after calling for an enterprise rental for hours and not receiving an answer! On Monday we went back to pick up my husbands truck! When I tell you we are beyond gratefully it's an understatement! Justin had worked with GM and handled every step. Albert had replaced the transmission and re geared the truck! We were able to leave Boone on Monday afternoon only 2 days after the issue arose because of the amazing service we received at Team Chevrolet of Boone! I will drive four hours one way to purchase a vehicle from these amazing people and would recommend this dealership to everyone who will listen!

I have no problem coming here to this location, as I do another one in Charleston. The employees are courteous, kind, and quick to respond and complete service work, and they never try to up-sell me with needless stuff. Somehow, every time I go to another Nissan in SC, they try their hardest to bamboozle me and say I need to spend $400-$800 for the safety of my car (fake!) but when I come to Autostar in Boone, they are always honest and my bill is never more than $100 for service, and is usually much, much lower. When I'm sitting in the lobby, almost every employee greets me and asks whether I need help, yet doesn't try to con me into purchasing a newer vehicle. Awesome stuff that I can sit here and truly relax while waiting on my car to be serviced. This dealership is located in Boone so it's not busy as others I've been to in more urban cities, which is also another advantage. Also, the music they play is good and relaxing (eg, Mumford and Sons playing now) and not annoying, which truly affects my experience. Phew. Great job Autostar!!
