He thought getting your car fixed shouldn't be an inconvenience and cost an unreasonable amount! He loves helping people, knows his stuff, and does his research. My motor blower was out and he replaced it for me this evening. He figured this out by asking me questions over the phone and I was relieved. Listen to this: The two mechanics I called prior to him wanted to charge me $140 diagnostic fee first, and they too were one-man mechanics. I'm glad I found Addison.

I had a breakdown near the Wondo River Bridge. Contacted Sea Island, which is relatively close and they got a truck to my location in a little under 20 mins. The driver was kind, funny, and quirky. He likes his job and he has stories to tell. He got the car loaded in 5 mins and we were off! We actually had a little fun on the ride to the drop-off point with our driver. We squared up at the mechanic garage we requested delivery to and it was a fair price especially considering it was a holiday weekend. Thanks, Woody! 10/10 would recommend.

I can't tell you whether this business does good work or not - I never got that far. All I know is…read morethat today I took my car to JT's Paint and Body to get an estimate for body and paint work. At JTs', they were courteous and looked at the car. They just had too much work to be able to do the job at this time - they said all the shops in the area were really busy. But at least they talked to me and looked at the car. Then I went to Platinum. I parked my car right in front of their office window, walked in and said I needed an estimate. The receptionist said an estimate was $50 and would apply to the work. I said I wanted someone to just take a look at the car to let me know if they would even do the work and see if they would even have the time for it. I didn't want to pay $50 if they wouldn't even do the work or have the time. "The car's parked just outside, I just want someone to see if you will even do it". But she wasn't having any of that, said "We're good", essentially meaning goodbye and go. I said "Thanks for the HELP" and left. Platinum may not need me as a customer, but I don't think they need that employee as a receptionist either.

The car looks like it never was in an accident,is running perfectly and has held up with no problems the last 3 and a half months.

Sean took one look at my car and told me to hold on before spending that kind of money. He personally buffed out a large scrape along the side of my car, and it now looks almost like new. What really blew me away is that he didn't charge me anything. That level of honesty and kindness is rare, especially in an industry where it's easy to overquote. Thanks to him, I saved thousands of dollars and avoided unnecessary work. If you're looking for a body shop you can actually trust, this is it. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

They said I needed a new TIPM. When I called two days later (before leaving work to pick the car up) they said I didn't need a new TIPM but a new a/c actuator and the car would be ready in a few days. The cost decreased but the car would not start the next day after picking it up. They rewired something so that the fuel pump was on constantly. Also, the problems that led me to get the car worked on originally were still there. Charleston Auto Electric told me that I had leaking valve cover gaskets and intake gaskets. They are not leaking and another garage confirmed this. I paid over $500 for Charleston Auto Electric to fix nothing, cause more problems, and yell at me in the lobby when I pointed out that they had communication problems and that my flat tire was not repaired. I had another location scan the Tire Pressure Monitor that Charleston Auto Electric said was not working. It works perfectly Another garage fixed all of this locations' errors, and they did it for less. If the owner reads this, please contact me. I would love to fill you in on what is happening in this location.
