In May 2025, I brought my 09 Pontiac G8 to Strite's Garage for a major rear-suspension overhaul…read more I supplied over $1,000 in new bushings for the job. The shop performed additional work I did not authorize and attempted to charge me for services I had specifically discussed -- which showed no signs of being completed. When I picked up the car, it was pulling hard to the right, scraping during turns, and howling at speed. I left a voicemail after the test drive to report the issues and explain I would be having the work inspected by a third-party shop before proceeding. Instead of replying directly to me, they reached out to family members of mine. That alone was enough to permanently damage my trust in how this business handles communication and conflict. Over the following weeks: - A tire shop found the subframe was misaligned, bolts were improperly torqued, and the alignment was far off. - After multiple visits to resolve it, I still had to go to a GM dealership twice to get the vehicle driving straight. - All in all, it cost me over 15 hours and additional repair bills -- just to fix strites work When I tried to resolve things formally, the owner did not dispute any of the details. Instead, I received a religiously framed email, offering a lump sum payout if I met him in person at a specific time. The tone and content were so unprofessional and manipulative that I can't even include them here -- because some platforms flag or reject the wording even though it's his. I have the full email saved and available upon request. Even on Better Business Bureau, the owner publicly used similar language -- asking readers to "continue to find life and meaning in Jesus Christ" in response to my report. That further reinforces my concerns. Summary: In my experience, Strite's Garage: - Performed serious suspension work incorrectly - Billed me for unauthorized work I never asked for - Billed me for work not done - Avoided accountability - Reached out to third parties instead of communicating with me - Attempted to resolve things through religious and emotional pressure

I was recommended to this garage from my usual mechanic who would not take a deeper dive into what…read morewas going on with my engine in my mini van. He thought that the sounds and shaking from it meant that my engine was probably done! So he recommended that I take it to Strite's because he didn't want to deal with it. It turned out when Strite's took a look at it, that all it needed was a new timing belt kit, and a couple other reasonable parts for a Honda Odyssey from 2014 at 135k miles. I am extremely pleased with the level of expertise, friendliness, and the fact that they were honest, fair, and had a fast turnaround on the work. I would not hesitate to refer Strite's to friends and family, and I will definitely return to them for work on my vehicles in the future.

Went and hung out, the entire time JD was explaining what he was doing and why, they found a couple things that wouldn't pass, and fixed them on the spot for me. They were telling me about other services they do, and it's not only a reasonable value but they're the type of shop that wants to get it done and get it done the right way for you. They might be a 25 minute drive from my place, but this is the shop I'm going to be going to for any car needs that I have. Absolutely stellar, 100 out of 5.

The transmission in my truck wasn't running too well. I took it up to these guys, dropped it off, they took a look and called me the next day. Within the day I dropped the truck off at Dicks they contacted me, told me what was going on and the roads there were to take. They had everything ordered and the truck was to be on it's way out within only a few days. That's service!!! After speaking with Phil and Dorsey I knew I had to go with a brand new transmission. With that being said I wasn't concerned about where my money was going with these guys. Knowing ppls lives still must go on...the truck wasn't out of commission for too long at all and That's great!. Although being skeptical, Dicks auto made this whole process very easy for me. Dicks didnt act as if they were in it for the money and just to 'fix somethin' they actually listened and understood my situation (no I don't need new wipers or a new battery and my tires are FINE!!) they just did what they had to do. No extra this and that. Just to the point and let's get this truck out the door.

If you want to purchase tires at a shop where they sit on the shelves for over a year, get torn to…read moreshreds with low mileage, and get denied for any type of warranty replacement under 12 months this is the shop for you. I purchased 4 sets of tires from this location, two in July, two in September. Alignment was done at each install. The tires were wearing down exceptionally wrong and they all had started to tear apart. The owner and manager aggressively denied any ownership of the issue at hand and claimed the reason was my car "eats tires" and alignment was my problem. I've owned and operated my vehicle and know a set of tires do NOT get worn out in less than a year. The only reason I even bought these tires is I hit a set of nails on Waynesboro Main Street and needed a replacement quick. I am a new father, I am also hitting hard times, instead of compassion and understanding of my situation and just asked what could be done to help; I was reverently told nothing will be done, conversation was over, to stop wasting their time, and leave. I whole heartedly do not recommend this location. Do yourself a favor and seek service elsewhere.

Rebuilt and replaced parts that weren't bad and i payed for it. They suck. I had told them the entire time what i thought it was and i was right. Had to take it back several times and every time ended up with new problems. They let kids work on my truck and i ended up having to replace the transmission gasket and the transmission lines they left rubbing against the harmonic balancer until they split and charged me for every one of their mistakes. They are shit. Clearly can't diagnose transmissions and are not honest about how they conduct themselves. They say they'll rebuild your transmission for less than $1300, but they don't tell you they're going to start there and work towards the cheaper solutions because they can't diagnose a transmission.
