I broke down on the I26 late on a Sunday. Tow truck driver recommended Main Line their honesty and…read moreability. He was absolutely correct. We had a major issue that required ordered parts. They had me rolling within 3 hours after getting the parts. And the final cost was 300.00 less than the estimate. The codes were wrong and not all new parts were needed I am 67 years old and have a lot of experience with mechanics. These folks know their stuff. I just wish their shop was near my home in Fl.

I cannot thank Mark and his crew at Crain enough. Our truck was rear-ended on 74, traveling to…read moreAsheville. The hitch and bumper were smashed, and this meant we could not tow our camper back home to Phoenix. With less than a week to leave for home, our insurance company and a (unnamed) national body shop was less than worthless. So we looked around for a local body shop, and found Cran Auto Body. Mark came through quickly with a very reasonable estimate, was incredibly reassuring and explained the whole process to me. Even pointed out things he could reuse and did not need to buy. Super honest guy! The insurance company actually agreed with his full estimate! He got us on the road with a new bumper and hitch in no time, and we got home safe and sound. Very high quality work, factory OEM parts and everything. I hope to never have to use him again, but if any of you need that level of work, Crain's is the way to go. Also, a PSA. Always buy local, never go to the Walmarts of the world if you need quality work. Unless you need a whole lot of toilet paper in a hurry. In that case, go to Walmart. Though if you are in that kind of situation you perhaps need to rethink your life choices. Otherwise, buy local, spend local. You won't regret it.

It was so reassuring to see someone so confident and competent working on my equipment. Johan's communication is clear, he had no issues explaining to me what he was working on and why. Johan is a good person and a family man, and even though his business is a new one in the area I'm so glad we went with his services instead of the competitors--as Johan was quick to respond, and put us on the schedule the same week! As my husband says, Johan is a hidden gem, and our community is very lucky to have him here! Thank you so much Johan for getting our leaf vacuum, leaf blower, and zero turn lawn equipment back and running strong!!

When I got there early, he was immediately attentive and kind. His parents were visiting to meet his sweet puppy. Chris lifted my car, showed me what was going on, let me be super nosy & watch/take photos, let me bother his sweet, shy dog. He said it would take 20 minutes and cost $55. It took 15 minutes and was in fact $55. I am so very pleased! Not gonna lie, I was a little nervous before going there because mechanics can be a little on the anti-queer side of things. Chris was deeply kind, chatty, and welcoming and full made me feel comfortable. We had a good chat, great & quick service, great pricing. Completely fixed the issue in my exhaust system. I will only be going here for any muffler or brake issues I encounter going forward.

A very polite man named Chris was there when I arrived and took some info, and then presented me with pricing. $240 to check my check engine light, and then, because I told him I'd just purchased the car, $150 do "do a really in depth check". I declined the in depth, but it left me a bad taste in my mouth. I called another mechanic on the way out who quoted me $189 to check the light. I called Chris back to ask if they'd match that and he immediately replied "no ma'am". No problem. I'll come and grab the car and go elsewhere - I was already feeling like I was going to be overcharged. ETA. I received a call a couple of hours later, stating they would match the cost that the other shop quoted. The owner, Todd, is apparently in today, and Chris had spoken to him about this and he wanted to honor the other quote. Honestly, when I drove up to this shop I was really excited. I grew up country, in the country. This place is country - there are roosters crowing, and a good ol' boy mechanic listening to George Straight. I'm down with that. Upgrading my review to four stars, and will update at the end of the day...fingers are crossed that I found a mechanic I can trust.
