Luckily 1) I'm a Yelper 2) Advantage Automotive was every bit as helpful as Yelpers suggested. Note: They have recently merged with Jack Smith Transmission. I called and spoke with Kerry, who was mentioned in other reviews. Kerry explained it was a short week for them (closed Thursday and Friday) and Monday was jammed but that they could take a look Tuesday. Not only did they take a look Tuesday, but they got the work done (no small job, either) by day's end for which we were very appreciative. Moral of the story is this: If you live in Asheville you're lucky to have this repair shop available. If you are visiting Asheville you're STILL lucky because these people will take care of you as if you were a local. Great place; great people.

Our tow driver was very nice, patient and even got us laughing during a stressful situation. The guy working at the shop was very accommodating and told us up front they wouldn't be able to give us a fill diagnostic till after the weekend. Honesty up front is always appreciated even if its something bad. We'll probably have to get another tow to a different auto shop due to timing + services available but if we ever find ourselves in a situation, glad to know we have AAA there to help.

Should that be your bag and that's what you search for, there's AAA of Asheville to satiate your quest for dealing with imbeciles. I'll go a step further, ask for Michelle -- she'll really annoy the shit out of you. First, I was told, after going through 20 minutes of robot calls etc., that it would be a $65 fee for a roadside assistance request in the first 24 hours. I was told it was in my confirmation email "in fine print." That's just a plain lie. It's nowhere to be found, and if a 39 year old tech-savvy person like myself can't find it, that means it's designed to be hidden to screw people over. This is deceptive business practices at its finest. Don't go to these people. There's bound to be another roadside assistance option.

I would recommend TJ based on my experience!

I assume he works with all vehicle types, but from talking to him he seemed to be comfortable with and have previous experience with working with EVs. TJ was helpful and professional in our interactions, and the price quoted for the work was quite reasonable. I ended up not needing the repair work we had discussed, but based on the interaction TJ would most likely be the first one I'd reach out to locally for any future repair work, at least if that work needed was out of warranty.

So the shits been scraping the ground. This past Friday I take my car to Firestone in Huntersville to get it fixed along with a few other things. Unbeknownst to me until I hit a bump on the way to Asheville for my birthday weekend , the shit is still hanging and scraping the road as I drive. Fast forward to today. I call Coxe this morning. They're crazy busy so I don't have any expectations. I call my husband to see if his friend who owns a shop about 45 min away can get it done. He can. I dont wanna have to drive out there just yet so I bring my car to Coxe like they advised. As Cat mentioned before it may take a minute to get to my car. It's all good. I'm waiting for only 2 min or less and Cat at the front desk told me they'll get to my car real soon once a lift opens. In literally less than 6 min my car is in the back. Wow! Also waiting in the lobby and the other lady is vacuuming asking me if she's disturbing me. Just friendliness and kindness all around. Then Aaron comes out and tells me that the front piece was being held up by zip ties. Thanks Firestone! Rather than telling me they need to order the parts from Honda like Aaron said, they pieced my shit together for it to just come down. Firestone in Huntersville did me dirty. I'm leaving a review there too. Aaron gave me the piece that was hanging down. Gave me the ONE screw that was there out of like 8 or so that I needed. AND THEY DIDN'T CHARGE ME!!! Thank you thank you thank you so much Kat and Aaron!!! If I ever need work done and have a visit coming up for Asheville, I'll just take my car here. I mean I love Asheville cause most everyone I encounter here are polite and kind, but this is some next level shit for me as a Black Woman. I'm typically on guard to ensure I'm not taken advantage of. Literally Aaron and Kat put me at ease.

The older, gray-haired heavy set guy at the counter told me that I could not get in front of all of the other business and couldn't take a few minutes to look at my situation.

Evidently, there is something that affects the mk5 Jetta sedan and Jetta sportwagons (2005-2011) where, for some reason, no repairs to the door locks will fix the locking mechanism. As a bonus, it comes along with an undetectable parasitic drain on the battery if not driven every day (for instance during a global pandemic vs driving 1hr to and from work every day.) Having 3 other trustworthy, smart mechanics try to figure out my old car impressed on me that Larry did his best and the timing of the car's inherent flaw was purely coincidental. If anyone else has a similar year VW with these issues happening, I urge you to save your money trying to diagnose and repair, and put it towards a new vehicle.

During the phone…read moreconsultation, they mentioned additional repairs were needed (spark plugs and coil), specifically referencing 'since you like to do these things yourself' - which reasonably implied this was information for future self-repair. I specifically authorized only the hose repair and diagnostic testing. They texted that my car was ready with a total bill of $407.67, including $262+ for unauthorized spark plug and coil replacements. When questioned via text (screenshots attached), they offered to remove the new parts and charge only for the authorized work ($127.33). While I appreciate this resolution and them working me in on short notice, upon arrival they informed me they would no longer work on my vehicle - simply because I questioned unauthorized repairs. Additionally, they damaged my engine cover by overtightening it with a power tool, making future self-repairs more difficult when I go in to change the spark plugs and coils myself. 1 star for making the billing right when questioned, but cannot recommend a shop that performs unauthorized repairs, damages components, and then refuses future service when professionally questioned about it. Clear communication, proper care of components, and customer authorization should be standard practice.
