They charged me like $50-100 for air filters that cost like $5-15 at the parts store! My husband ended up calling because they were charging like $200 for labor just to put in 3 air filters that take about 5 mins each. Then they checked brakes (they said this is standard practice) and said they needed to be changed (they confessed to my husband on the phone they have a policy if brakes are at 40% good then they tell people they need to be changed but don't tell the people that but of info). They took hub caps off to look and when they put them back on they didn't line them up correctly on one tire and forced it on causing it to crack. They saw a woman (me) come in and did the quintessential thing and uncharged me for everything because I am not the "car" person. This place is horrible. Go somewhere else and save yourself from getting scammed. Also had an 8am appointment and didn't get my car back until after noon.

If I could give zero stars, I would…read more On June 9, 2025, I called the Evans location and spoke with Derrick regarding service recommended by the Honda dealership in Virginia, where I had recently completed maintenance. I asked about pricing for replacing the timing belt, drive belt, water pump, and tensioner. Derrick informed me that the cost would be $689.64 but also incorrectly stated that my vehicle had a timing chain, not a timing belt. He advised that a valve adjustment with valve cover gasket replacement wasn't necessary unless there was an error code, which contradicted the dealership's recommendation. I clarified the services I needed and asked if I would need to make an appointment. He said that if I dropped the car off early in the day, it could be completed the same afternoon. On June 10, I called ahead at 12:05 PM to confirm the timing, and I was told the work could still be completed that day. I brought my car in shortly after and reiterated the specific services I needed to multiple staff members. Again, I was assured it would be ready by the afternoon. However, at 4:00 PM, I received a call from Derrick stating that they were recommending additional services based on their inspection. I explained that these services had just been completed at the Virginia dealership, to which he responded, "It doesn't show on Carfax." Considering the work was completed only a few days earlier, I wouldn't expect it to appear on Carfax yet. More importantly, Derrick then revised the estimate from $689.64 to $1,250.97, citing that he had overlooked the fact that my vehicle does, in fact, have a timing belt. He also told me that the car would not be ready until the following day. At this point, I asked what--if anything--had been completed, and was told that no work had begun. I requested that they remove the car from the shop, and I picked it up shortly after. This experience left me extremely disappointed. The lack of accurate information, poor communication, and misdiagnosis of basic vehicle components raise serious concerns about the competency of the staff. I expected more professionalism and reliability, and I will be taking my vehicle to a more trusted and knowledgeable service provider moving forward.

I've taken about a year to ponder over leaving a review or not…read more Me as a person: Naive, trusting, mid-20's, knowing nothing about cars. Issue: My 2014 Kia refuses to drive over 45 miles per hour. Jiffy Lube: "We cannot work on a car that has the engine light flashing" I coast down the hill to a place that has "Christian" in the title. Naive, naive, naive. The place is willing to look at my car that day. Wonderful. It's the morning. They'll let me know when they're done. I walk all over Evans since it's a lovely day. They have my car past 5:00. So it's been... 6-7 hours. Luckily I didn't have work. Finally I wait in the building so I don't get locked out past closing time. Eventually, I'm told "You're going to need an entirely new engine. Your car isn't safe to drive." I'm shaken. I had just bought the car less than 3 months ago. I ask if they know any tow truck services they trust so I can take my car home, as I was a pharmacy technician at the time and flat broke. I had spent that March through August walking everywhere I needed, so I just accepted my fate of walking everywhere once more until I could figure out how to save for a multi-thousand dollar fix. The person at the front desk then says "Oh, it's not serious enough that you need a tow." My inner dialogue went "Hm.. but you just said my engine needs to be replaced. My car isn't safe to drive... why WOULDNT I need a tow truck?" So I pay the $91 diagnostic fee on my credit card, a bit dumbfounded that $100, which was the equivalent to working 6 hours overtime at my full time job to afford the service, fixed nothing. My engine is to give out at any second, but I'm okay to drive home? Quite embarrassed, I called my veteran friend who came over that afternoon, ran a test on his diagnostic machine, and asked if I hit a bump recently. I did. He told me I had activated some sort of knock sensor when I did that, which then activated a safety mechanism, which was why my car wouldn't go over 45. He cleared the code on his device, and my car was magically fixed :) A year later, my car is still running great. No further issues. So I recommend avoiding this place. My friend fixed the issue in five minutes for the price of a thank you coffee while this establishment took an entire business day to attempt to scam me into buying a whole new engine without clearing the code to allow me to safely drive home until I could afford their "fix." Anyone who knows the driving culture in Augusta would understand that driving under 45 is dangerous business around all the irritated, impatient car-owners in this city. I don't appreciate anyone who uses scare tactics to uneducated, trusting people. It's embarrassing to be treated as if I'm stupid when in reality, I never had a father to show me how to run simple tests on my car to try and resolve issues myself. Rather shameful to lure people in with Christian decor when taking advantage of people in my opinion, but that's just my thoughts.

First experience working with him went fine... was able to complete the repair, even took them time…read moreto drive and purchase additional parts that were needed. Second experience was terrible, after transporting the vehicle to a location in Waynesboro he asked for additional funds for parts and when photos were requested he stated he could not provide them as the old parts were already disposed of. Communication was terrible. Once he stated he fixed the vehicle and was bringing it back, he continuously stopped or pulled over (GPS locator). We drove the vehicle not even 5 minutes down the road and it over heated. Coolant and oil was everywhere inside the engine bay. The original head and bolts (that we paid additional funds to have brand new parts and to be replaced) were still on the vehicle. Multiple parts and wires are no longer connected and bolts are missing for parts to remain in place). The car can no longer be driven at this time until we are able to obtain the funds for the repairs that Lynn was immensely incompetent in completing. All attempts to contact Lynn were met with him blocking us. We have requested our $1750 with zero response. ONLY USE this mechanic, if you want to be out of money that could be spent at a shop or minor issues repaired. OTHERWISE don't waste your time or money.

I came back to pick it up, and old Marc with his hippy powerboat days well behind him, leaned forward and said "you and I have to have a talk..." "Your rear axle seals are shot, and I don't eve know what I'm going to find when I open that pumpkin (meaning differential)." An off-the-cuff estimate was $2500+ It was a condition I was aware of... just brake seals, not axle seals. They were leaking on the inside of the RR back tire, and rather than be honest or investigate further, they took me for a fool and threw rear axle seals in the mix, a $2500 repair that wasn't needed. I'm 100k further down the road and my axle seals are still fine. The blonde old hippie is a shyster, and his squeaky mouthpiece at the desk is just a minion. I went there because I thought they did good, honest work. But this was my last day ever since... can't re-build that kind of trust.
