I wish I lived in Chapin, SC, so I could go to Joe for all my vehicle needs. He's a good person and…read morehis 42 years of experience is evident when he's diagnosing a problem. While driving down for North Carolina, my check engine light came on and it triggered a power reduction on my engine. I pulled over on 26 as my truck refused to accelerate. I was able to restart it and coast it down into his shop. I was desperate to get back to Jacksonville. I explained my situation to Joe. He immediately came out and inspected my truck. He ran diagnostics and then manually inspected the engine himself looking for issues the sensor might missed. He guessed my throttle body (I later confirmed, he was right) was causing the problem, but he understood I didn't have the time to wait and get it fixed. He cleared error codes on my truck so it would run again. He explained what I need to do to finish my drive. He handed me his card incase anything came up and I had questions during the drive back. When I offered to pay him for his time and diagnostic services, he refused. Instead, he insisted on sending back on the water with a color water. Joe is clearly a standup guy with incredible knowledge of mechanics.

I have been a one or two automobile owner for more than 70 years. During a 30 year military…read moreservice career, I have lived in many areas of the country. I have dealt with more automobile service agencies than I can remember. I have recently moved to Chapin. Months prior to this move, my rare and much treasured 2007 Jaguar XKR developed a recurring and puzzling problem. I had taken it to Jaguar dealerships and my local mechanic several times. Each shop replaced random parts, charged lots of money, but never got to the root of the problem. On the advice of new friends and neighbors, I contacted Taylor's Auto Service. I did have serious concerns using an unfamiliar and unspecialized facility. I called, described the symptoms I had experienced and scheduled an appointment a few days later to drop off the car. On the first visit, the car behaved normally in the shop without issue so they returned it without charge. The problem occurred again soon after, requiring a 2nd visit with a more detailed system inspection. This has been the general pattern for this very random and rare recurring problem. With a better appreciation of the situation, Taylor's specialized electrical staff quickly found the TRUE problem, ordered and installed the part, and my pet was finally back home and running properly. While reloading my personal gear the next day, I accidentally triggered the car's anti-theft system. The car froze and I was unable to release it. I called Taylor's, asked for help, and the Shop Chief came to my residence. He quickly reset the system and gave me his expert advice to prevent this from happening again. There was no charge for the rescue. I have never experienced service like this anywhere. Needless to say, Taylor's will be my family's one and only service contact from now on.

Well now my husband and I will always bring our cars here when something is wrong. LITERALLY can't recommend them enough!

As a happy customer, I am sharing my superior car repairing experience today with The Autoshop of…read moreChapin and strongly recommend them to you for their professional, timely, affordable and friendly service that rejuveniles my 13 years old Toyota Camry. My car started to have more and more severe vibration issue when accelerating 2 weeks ago, especially when speed is more than 60 miles/h. I first went to my Toyota Jim Hudson, they said the issue is with my frontwheel bearing and front-left axle. Jim Hudson charged $1050 for both along with wheel alignment service. However, when I drove it back home and drove 1 trip to downtown, the vibration issue shows up again. I went back to them next day, the technician told me it may need wheel alignment. I was confused: shouldn't you have already done this as you charged me for that yesterday?. After waiting for 1.5 hours for alignment, the vibration issue still remains. They then inspected it again said the front passenger side axle also needs replacement for $760. I was so angry. ===== Then I decided to get my car repaired at another better business. I found The Autoshop of Chapin, a family owned business with high rating on google map. The receptionist (Katherine) is so friendly. I don't need any waiting, she asked me to bring the car over, and immediately asked a mechanic to have a drive test, and figure out the vibration issue and confirmed its cause after test-drive. Then I was quoted for ONLY $505 for axle replacement compared to Jim Hudson's $760, a 33% save!!! Katherine also immediately gave me a ride back to home. After arriving home, I found I forogt the key at their shop.. Without any complaint, Katherine drove back with me and got the key and send me back home again. We talk and chat like friends.... at 4pm, Katherine picked up me again, and my car drives like a new car now. Zero vibration at all now. What can you ask for your next car repair? 33% cost-saving, making a new friend plus professional and quality repair by Kathy's husband with 20-year auto repair experience.
