NOT a Master Mechanic!!! 5 hours to change a starter! Slow…read more. Mr Steve Woody, showed up on a job at 3:45 p.m. He changed into coveralls at 4:05 he crawled underneath the truck that he was there to look and access . He did not take any tools at this point climb back out got some tools with back under the vehicle. now if you're a master mechanic after 30 minutes 45 minutes you realize that the bolt is stripped. No he continued , so he made several attempts at 5:45 p.m. I decide to say, Hey cut it off!! I told him that you should have cut it off after failure of 4 x out from under the vehicle to search for screwdrivers a hammer sockets that you thought would fit. And phone calls and his work truck was piled up and disorganized. So after the suggestion of myself the customer stated cut it off asked if he had a torch he said No but he had a cutting grinder 30 minutes later he found and put everything together to do it you realize that's the mechanic that the bolt is stripped so you made several attempts and it 5:45 p.m. you decide that you should cut it off after failure of four times out from under the vehicle to search for screwdrivers a hammer sockets that you thought would fit after the suggestion of myself the customer stated cut it off asked if he had a torch he said he had a cutting grinders 30 minutes later he found and put everything together to cut nut off now. He then put replacement starter on Finally, at 8:30. long story short $450 later I had to argue down to 400 . After I complained that he took too long and too he should have gotten by 40 minutes should have figured out the bolt issue earlier. any decent mechanic would have done that and a Master Mechanic would have known by then that it can't take 3 hours to finally figure out you got to cut it off do not use this man he is not a Master Mechanic by any means and a total rip-off!!! Totally took advantage of me. He honestly thought I was not very smart woman. Oh he complained because I had to use a credit card..Not my fault your processing company charges you outrageous Fees.. Should be 0 star..but had to pick 1to post.

Shame on us for being naive. Shame on you for unethical practice…read more We have been using the auto shop for oil changes and repairs for years. Started noticing that every time we had something done (even an oil change) there ended up being something else (usually expensive) needed shortly there after. Ask for an evaluation for an issue, charged for evaluation and issue worsens? Final straw, after an oil change, oil leaking and causing major repairs ($1000+) needed to be done. And then issue not even resolved? Bad gasket? I think not. Bad practices? I think so. Don't be tempted by the coupons. Not to be trusted. We have learned our lesson. It was expensive. And hassle-filled.

We had his car towed to Carpenters Auto Repair and the next morning were contacted right away about what they had found as the issue and the options for repair. Communication was excellent the entire time and I was amazed they were able to fix it that day so that my son could return to classes after Thanksgiving. The price was reasonable, communication excellent, repair was fast, and overall, I'll be recommending to anyone I know who lives Columbia to use them!

Oil changes, brake work, most recently a battery change. The work done was great, with high-quality customer service and fair prices. But you could find all those statements on any other auto repair shop review, so here's the difference... I really enjoy going there. The atmosphere is relaxed, the people there are approachable and friendly. Talking about my car's needs is like talking to a concerned friend rather than a mysterious expert looking to book your business. Minnies Auto does good work, plain and simple. They do it with a refreshing spirit and attitude. And that makes a difference when I'm spending my hard-earned dollars. Give'm a shot. I promise they won't disappoint.
