Our minivan started overheating while we were on a family vacation, which easily could have ruined…read moreour entire trip. Thankfully, Mullinax Auto and Marine Repair was only a few minutes away, and they completely saved the day! As soon as we arrived, they performed a quick diagnostic on the engine and determined that we needed a radiator replacement. Incredibly, they were able to get the part in stock right away and had the whole thing fixed within just a few hours. The absolute best part of our experience however was the unmatched customer service. When we explained our original vacation plans for the day to the owner, Craig, he went completely above and beyond and personally drove us into town! Thanks to him, our family was still able to grab a wonderful lunch and enjoy some shopping in downtown Dahlonega while the car was being fixed up. Craig and Stacy were incredibly kind, courteous, professional, and so deeply helpful to us when we needed it the most. They turned a stressful breakdown into "a minor bump in the road." They are incredibly honest and the price was very reasonable. Do not hesitate to take your car here for any work you need done, expected or unexpected!

Three months of repairs just to get my car back still overheating\…read more I originally brought the car to him because it was overheating\. I was told the problem had been diagnosed, that he could repair it, and that when the work was completed the overheating issue would be fixed\. He was friendly and seemed like he was trying to help me out, but what was supposed to be a repair turned into roughly three months of waiting\. There was constantly something causing another delay\. I would be told he had other things that were more important, things were getting in the way, he was getting behind, or that he would get to it soon\. Weeks just kept passing\. Then it seemed like every other week I was being told there was another problem with the car that needed to be addressed\. I tried to be understanding because I know unexpected problems can come up when working on a vehicle, especially once you start getting into the repair\. But after being patient through three months of delays and being told about one new problem after another, I ultimately got the car back still overheating--the exact reason I brought it there in the first place\. I don't have anything personal against him, and he was nice throughout the process, but after being without my car for three months, I expected the repair I originally brought it in for to actually be completed\. Unfortunately, I now have to take the car somewhere else and start figuring out the overheating issue again\. Based on my experience, I can't recommend his work\.

Worst mechanic ever! My daughter's car wouldn't start, so I drove 2.5 hours here to help her get it…read morefixed and drive her around until it was ready. One of her roommates' dad came out and changed the starter for her, but it still wouldn't start. I found Brown's Automotive on Google and had the car towed there based on proximity to her house and Google reviews. When I got there I told him that we just put a brand new starter on it, but it still wasn't starting. I told him that I lived out of town, so I needed it repaired quickly. He said he would look at it, but has a mandatory $150 for the first hour. I said ok. He called me and said the new starter was faulty and had to replace it. He did, then called back and said his starter didn't fix the problem either and thought it was the ignition. He said it would take time because it is hard to get to. Well, I didn't hear from him in 2 days. I texted and no response. I called and he just said same thing "I'm working on it, but think it's the ignition." I didn't hear from him again for several days, so her dad called him. He told him that he couldn't work on the car because it was raining and he works on cars outside. I told him he lied to you because he has a big shop with 2 bays. After having the car for exactly 7 days, he finally calls me and says "There is nothing more I can do. I think its the ignition, but to test it I have to take the steering column apart, if I do that I mine as well just replace it." So basically since the day he got it, he changed out a brand new starter that we just put on it and did nothing else with it. Just let it sit for 6 days. So I told him I was going to have it towed somewhere else. He charged me $460. I knew immediately that he was screwing me over, but I just wanted my car back and to finally go home so I paid it. I looked at the receipt and saw he charged $160 for the part which I new was right, the $150 for the labor which he told me in advance about, and then $150 for diagnosis. He didn't diagnose anything because he never touched the car after the starter. Then I noticed at the bottom of the receipt he wrote "car won't start ignition?" Was that what I paid $150 for? That is NOT a diagnosis! The new mechanic sent me a video to show he didn't even put the heat cover over the starter he installed (see attached pictures). So he also screwed me over for the $150 half-ass installation he did. What a crook! Do NOT waste your money. I think all of these positive reviews are just family and friends of his and not real customers.
