Then when I picked it back up it was making a new noise and the guy tried to act like he didn't hear the noise. So I said forget it and went home. Called back the next morning because of how it was driving. Tried to speak to Mr Rick because he is who told me to only speak to him but when I asked yo speak to another person that would listen to my concern I was then hung up on. After giving this place almost 2000.00. Nevet again will i ho back. Now I only take my cars to atc in grovetown.

Tire replaced & balanced in less than an hour. I have been using Gate 2 for a couple of years for almost all of my auto service. Normally you need to schedule an appointment but if you're in pickle they will go out of their way to help. Honest and trustworthy - fair prices and prompt service. What more could you ask for? Highly recommend.

Last summer the A/C on my 2019 Silverado was giving me issues. The dealer wanted to replace a…read morebaffle which would have required taking the dash board apart and the estimate was $2500. So I brought it to Aiken's Finest and they said the A/C seemed to be blowing cold and so they didn't touch it, didn't charge me, and remarkably, it has been working fine ever since. I brought the Silverado in for an oil change last week. Left it the night before my appointment and dropped the keys in the night lock box. My truck was ready promptly the next morning. No big deal. BUT, here's the thing. The plastic bumper on the front driver's side had been hanging loose from hitting a curb for like two years. THEY FIXED IT! Didn't charge me, and didn't even mention it. My wife noticed it the day after the appointment. In a world where trust is tough to come by, especially in the world of auto repair, these guys are trustworthy. I'm a customer for life.

After my Subaru sat idle for nearly two months, I was finally able to bring it in for diagnosis…read more Although I could not approve the full repair quote immediately, I am extremely grateful that the team suggested completing the work in parts over the next month. Chris and his team went above and beyond: they fixed my car, ensuring I was mobile, and even test-drove it to guarantee my safety for the drive home for the Holiday. They maintained communication throughout the entire process and delivered the most genuine customer service I have experienced. I wholeheartedly trust and highly recommend this team as a reliable mechanic, especially for Subaru owners. Their work is done with integrity, honesty, and affordability.

I'm in town visiting my parents for Master's Week. On Tuesday, 4 April, I dropped off my car for an…read moreoil change and to see why the "service due now" light came on while driving down to Augusta. When dropping off my car, we told the team (including the owner, Mr. Andy) that I needed my car back by the weekend because I needed to drive back to Virginia. He said no problem. Thursday, we called and left messages asking if my car was ready/asking what work may be needed. Nobody picked up and nobody called back. On Friday, we drove up to the shop to see they were closed (it was Good Friday and the shop was closed in observance of the religious holiday). This shop is also closed over the weekend, so I couldn't return home and to work on time. I have no issue with businesses observing holidays, especially those of religious observances, my issue is with not communicating to your customers. Not only did Andy's Automotive not uphold their word of having my car back by the weekend, but they also didn't notify me when dropping off that they would be taking the holiday. If I had known that, I would've made sure to stop by in person on Wednesday. Or Thursday. Or take my car to C&C Automotive like I used to do before I moved away. When I came to pick my car up, the lady manning the front desk said they didn't get a message. My mother told her she called a few times, I called, nobody called back. The lady said they didn't get any messages. Not one message was received? That seems like something else that needs to be remedied besides their communication practices. So I asked for Mr. Andy. He came to the office and I asked him if we could talk about what happened with my car. I said I dropped my car off last Tuesday for an oil change and a service light but needed my car by the weekend so I could be back at work by Monday. He looked at me and said, "Well todays Monday!" I reminded him that I don't live here and that's why I asked if it would be done by the weekend. He responded that he "dropped the ball" and didn't know what to tell me. He said he's been in business for 37 years and he dropped the ball. How about "I'm sorry?" How about "I'm sorry about that" and pretending to have empathy. I looked at him stunned that a business owner seemed to so openly not give a shit as to how his and his team's error not just inconvenienced a customer but cost them serious time away from work. I live in Virginia. Not just a trip over the bridge into North Augusta. Picking up my car today means that I can't leave for another day because of the ten-hour drive. He said he doesn't make up stories and excuses when he messes up and that if I "can't appreciate the truth that [he] doesn't know what to tell me." The biggest F-You I think I've ever gotten from someone that actually messed up. So I told him that "I appreciate the truth but what I don't appreciate is the attitude." And I gestured to his receptionist and himself. He got in a huff and walked away into another part of the office and slammed the door. As an employee that gets monthly vacation hours, I don't have the luxury to take a long weekend without penalty somehow. I don't have any problem with businesses taking the time they need for themselves and their families. What I have a problem with is when you tell your customers you can accommodate something and you don't. If he couldn't honor that he should've communicated before the weekend so I could've made other arrangements. My other issue is that if my car was ready to be picked up when I called first thing this morning, how long has my car been done? When was Andy's Automotive going to call and tell me my car was finished? All my car needed was an oil change so it's been sitting in their fenced area since Tuesday, with no communication to me that my car was done. TLDR: I dropped my car off for an oil change and a service due now alert, it took a week to get it back with constant unanswered calls. Take your car to any other shop in the CSRA, your business and time will be respected and appreciated more.

I was treated warmly when entering and told to bring my dog in while waiting. She even gave her treats and belly rubs. The technician took my keys to drive the truck to the shop for an estimate. He returned less than 10 minutes later and I joked that he must be finished. HE WAS!!!!! They did not try to gouge me with the industry standard and simply charged me for the bulb. I reminded them that I did not live in the area so no repeat business opportunities. They simply laughed and said that would be it. Thanks so much for the great service and honesty to an out-of-towner.

They had also driven it a lot, they put way more miles on it than they told us about. Very untrustworthy, we are not happy with the work they did but there's no way we're taking it back to them.
