Team Ryan Automotive - Auto Repair Near Me - Buford, Georgia

I am writing this review as a severe warning to anyone considering Team Ryan for their vehicle maintenance. My recent experience here was not only a prime example of unethical billing but also a horrifying instance of mechanical negligence that nearly cost me my life. ​Initially, their inspection report stated that I only needed to replace my rear brake pads. However, the final estimate and invoice heavily inflated the scope of work, charging me for rear brake pads, rotors, and a brake fluid exchange. ​The real nightmare began a few days after I got my car back. While driving, a brake caliper bolt completely fell out. This is an absolutely unacceptable and fatal error for a mechanic to make. Due to their incompetent work, my brakes failed, and it could have easily resulted in a deadly accident. ​I managed to slowly and carefully limp my car to a nearby, different auto shop to get it safely re-attached and repaired. When I contacted Team Ryan to demand a refund for their botched brake job as well as the emergency repair costs from the other shop, their response was completely absurd. They agreed to reimburse the cost of the emergency repair but blatantly refused to refund the original brake job, claiming that "the work was already done." ​They charged me for unnecessary parts, performed incredibly dangerous and sloppy work that endangered my life, and still felt entitled to keep the money for the labor they completely botched. ​If you value your safety, your life, and your hard-earned money, do not bring your car to Team Ryan. This is not a shop you can trust. ​[UPDATE in response to the owner's reply] ​It is terrifying that you publicly classify leaving a brake caliper bolt loose on a heavy vehicle as mere "human error" rather than "severe negligence." Failing to properly secure a critical life-safety component is the absolute definition of negligence. ​Yes, you paid for the secondary shop's emergency repair--but only because your botched work left me stranded with an imminent catastrophic failure. However, you conveniently left out the fact that you are STILL refusing to refund the nearly $1,000 I paid YOU for the original, dangerously defective brake job. ​"Standing behind your work" should mean fully refunding a service that actively put a customer's life at risk, not just paying off the emergency fix while pocketing the money for the failed job. My warning to other drivers stands: Avoid this place. read more

Team Ryan Automotive - 2021 Kia Telluride - Auto Repair Near Me - Buford, Georgia

Recently found Team Ryan Automotive and have been very happy with what they have been able to do for us since. It is great to have a trustworthy, local repair shop that won't try to upsell you on things you don't need every time you walk through the door like the big guys do. Nice work guys! read more

I brought my car in for a shaking issue and paid $3,000 for repairs that didn't fix the problem. I had to return multiple times, and management later admitted their standard diagnostic procedure (riding with the customer) wasn't done initially. Communication was poor, I wasn't walked through the work done, and paperwork showed services as "declined" that were never offered. While the car is now driving better, the overall experience was frustrating, costly, and unprofessional. I will not be returning. read more

Over charged for some minor repairs and had a hard time explaining that after I produced a report showing the repair wasn't even needed.

I arrived 20 minutes before you opened and was greeted by Danny. He was in the middle of a meeting, but stopped to make sure I was taken care of. Every experience with your company is always way above my expectations. Thank you so much for great service every time. read more

Women especially beware of this establishment!!! My check engine light came on and I needed a diagnostics. When I made the appointment Justin told me that I would need to leave my car 3-4 hours so they can run the diagnostics. My co-worker gave me a ride to the office and 20 mins. later Justin called to tell me that it will cost $299 to run the test. He must think I'm stupid. He knew how much it would cost before I left and should have told me then. a dishonest scheme; a fraud. read more

Service and repairs always a good result. I feel that my ongoing maintenance is always handled promptly and in with a cheerful attitude that makes you feel welcome. Great to do business with Team Ryan. read more

I was told my AC was low on refrigerant and it just needed a recharge. When I called pickup I was told the compressor was bad and would need to be replaced. What started out as a $300 repair ended up being $1600. I won't be going back even if they did fire the guy. read more

Excellent customer service. Digital online inspections with photos and information. Clear itemized pricing on estimate with online approval/decline options. Clean shop front and back. Definitely recommend! read more

Team Ryan had repaired another vehicle with a small issue, so I brought in my 2012 Jeep Wrangler for a challenging job. Despite assurance by management that they could replace and repair a blown engine, two engine powerplants later, and multiple tows back to the shop, they refused to stand up for the customer, instead blaming my son for ruining the latest replacement after less than 200 miles. Team Ryan blew it. Their owner and I talked at length and his attitude went from help me understand to dismissive. I was out of a lot of money, and no vehicle. At a Jeep specialty shop a few months later, forensics later showed that they installed the engine incorrectly, with the coolant flow totally backwards, causing the exact issue they challenged us with creating. Today, my very expensive replacement engine runs great thanks to the other shop. Team Ryan, you're complete lack of customer support said it all. Talking with my lawyer about next action. My advice to customers: minor repairs maybe but don't be fooled. read more

Team Ryan Automotive - MY JEEP FINALLY FIXED AND READY TO DRIVE! - Auto Repair Near Me - Buford, Georgia

I have utilized them multiple times to change oil and rotate tires on various vehicles. The service has always been 5 star.

First, let me compliment Team Ryan on being Extremely Friendly/Helpful with info on a car that they had worked on prior my purchase from a dealership. Team Ryan replaced the water pump in mid- November, the car sat on the dealership lot till 1/3 when I purchased it. A week or so later I noticed oil spots in the garage coming from the area of the water pump repair. Since they were so helpful originally, I call for help to correct the issue. Randy answered, after a brief discussion he made it clear that TEAM RYAN was NOT going to help solve the oil leak issue and advised me; "you should have had it checked out BEFORE you bought it".... that's what the initial call prior to my purchase was all about! DISAPPOINTED - just NOT consistent with their social media image ... thought I had found a repair shop to build a lasting relationship with - GUESS I WAS WRONG!...... BEWARE read more

Team Ryan's's offers professional, knowledgeable, and courteous service at a fair price. I walk away feeling cared for and treated well.

I've been to both the Cumming and the Buford locations now and they've been great! It's so nice to have an auto repair shop I can depend on! It's awesome to have a trustworthy auto service and repair shop where I can send everyone in my family, read more

Everything they said that was wrong in their so-called courtesy check was BOGAS!I had my car there for the instrument cluster.I Was supposed to be same day.Waited for over three hours.I was insulted by the Service Manager about having Harley Davison on my car.They finally told me that it would be next day.They called an Uber w I had to pay for,Which should have been a courtesy in my opinion.They charged me 20.00 for a 4 mile ride,and applied to my bill.When I finally got my car back.Two days late,The low fuel light was on and my check engine light.When I went in to ask about it,The smart-ass service manager said you need gas.I had gas in my car.I never let it ever go to a half tank.I went down the hill to a gas station and it would only take $3.00 and some change.I have receipt.Light was still on and engine light.He told me that they told me that there was a sensor out.He said that they thought that I had been out of pocket enough.I told him that I needed my check engine light off.He told me that he would get a quote and call.Never happened.I went back to talk to the manager.He said don't worry we will take care of it.Picked my car up,SAME.check engine light was still on.Oh by the way the mechanic told me when he first pulled it in the shop before any repair that the check engine light was on.Really!If none of your gauges are working how is that even possible.Oh by the way,After the instrument cluster was replaced,the next day when I was driving to work at 4:00am the lights on my dash didn't work.After ALL of that BS,I called the Manager of that location that was supposed to make it right.Guess what?He is now at the Cumming,Ga location.After telling him that I need to get the sensor for the check engine light repaired,He proceeded to tell me that he didn't think that it was a good idea for me to come back because he said that he didn't think that they could make me happy because of all of the things that had happened.So if you even THINK FOR one second that I would EVER DO business with you again YOUR Crazy!!! I give you NO STARS if I could.SHAME ON YOU,for taking peoples HARD earned money! read more

I like the customer service and they're very nice I just think it's crazy to pay $300 to look at Tesla car you're not going to fix.Luckily I had the money but I'm just looking out for others.Don't seem like y'all fix electric cars.Just diagnose them.That's profitable for y'all but wasteful for others read more

Team Ryan and William especially, do an excellent job. Repairs done as promised, optional additional work were offered and opportunity to proceed or do later is a good part of their service. Would recommend to everyone and much more personal service than auto dealers. read more

I had this shop do an oil change for my 2006 Mercedes SLK280. That was in July and they also performed a full vehicle inspection. At that time no problems were found, including no oil leaks. At the beginning of December I noticed some oil leak in the garage. I checked the engine oil level on 12/27 and I found it to be over the maximum (picture attached). I took the car in and they told me that they need to replace oil filter adapter gasket and oil cooler gasket. I told them that I am confident this happened because they added too much oil but they didn't admit it. I said that I will pay for the repairs but they should consider giving me a discount. I ended up paying $835.74 for the repairs. They charged me $85 diagnostic fee and another unspecified fees of $49.87 and my discount was only $85. I left a voicemail to the owner, Dan and he ignored me. He had his service advisor calling me with no result. I went to Team Ryan, I paid for the repairs and before I took it back I said that I would like to check the engine oil level. It was over the maximum even after the repairs were done. That makes me to wonder if the repairs were actually done. They told me the car was not sitting on a leveled surface so they took the car back in the shop. I insisted that I wanted to see it myself and when I went in the shop the service advisor checked the level and it looked fine. When I returned home I checked the level and it was over the maximum. This makes me to believe that the service advisor didn't push the dipstick in all the way. I decided not to go back to them to argue about the engine oil level and I purchased an oil extractor so I can do that myself. This morning 01/05/22 I checked the level again and it is over the maximum (picture attached). I also had my 2015 Mercedes Benz GL450 serviced there for an oil change and when I checked the engine oil level it is over the maximum also (picture attached, the lighter red dipstick). I was very happy, at first, when I found this auto shop that could work on Mercedes but I am not happy anymore about their service. . I am writing this review so people can be aware about this practice. Have someone to check the engine oil level after you return home from this shop or from any auto shops that performs oil change.

Great service and people! I would recommend them to anyone. I tell all my friends and I trust them to take care of them as they took care of me. read more

Overcharging. Bad customer service. About 3 months (March 2020) ago Team Ryan serviced one of our vehicles and after using a coupon we paid over $1200. Well, recently (June 2020) our other vehicle needed servicing and we paid out another $700+. I left a coupon for my husband to use but of course he forgot to bring it with him when he picked up the car. When he got home and realized it, he called right back but was told that unfortunately they could not honor the coupon because he's already paid and left. They suggested we hold on to the coupon for our "next" visit. Are you assuming that either of our cars are going to break down again soon that we would need to use the coupon in the near future? It's unfortunate because now you've lost our business. $40 may seem like "spare change" but when it comes to customer service, to me 40 bucks is 40 bucks. Most businesses will honor a coupon if it's given the same day, some will even honor it 1-3 days or up to a week. It's ridiculous that you would rather lose a customer then just refund for the difference. We'll take our business elsewhere. read more

Worth the trip for this repair shop - amazingly clean shop/office - gold level ASE technicians - have a 2010 f-150 with a frozen front brake - they had it back in a day and half with a full front brake R & R, complete vehicle mechanical inspection, tires rotated and even washed! - that afternoon we went on a 600 mile road trip and it performed like a new truck - price was what they said and included upgraded parts - my 'favorite shop' from now on! read more

I called yesterday to ask the price on an oil change and tire rotation for my 2018 GMC Sierra. I was quoted $59.00. I made an appointment and took it in this morning for the service but upon picking my truck up I was charged $89.00. Danny gave me the song and dance about my truck takes over 5 qts of oil, blah blah blah. He should've known that from my initial phone call. I could have gone to the dealership for that price and now that's where I'll take it from now on because these people are dishonest and pull the ole switcharoo on you. Never again. read more

I am very happy with Team Ryan. When I entered the office area, it was clean and neat. The team was friendly and very helpful. I had a number of issues to check into and though I thought the diagnosis fee was a bit high, the quality of the experience made up for it. I will be back to get the rest of my work done. read more

I have a 2004 Chrysler Sebring and it needed some work done. The service was outstanding. The team was very very friendly and helpful. Thank you all again car runs like brand new. Would recommend to go there. read more

CROOKS, wanted $1000.00 to fix missfire I got a code reader, then a $51.00 part at napa auto. Installed it in 5 minutes (a plug on coil), didn't even need any tools. Did get one hand dirty. read more

Awesome team. Dan is always front and center which is great. Won't be taking my vehicles anywhere else.

I brought my car in for a basic service oil change. Dan was very thorough and honest on my cars service needs explaining what was recommended why it was recommended what could wait and what needed to be done sooner than later. He also gave a clear breakdown of everything and sent it to me via text. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. Horrible experience. Had two different appointments set with them for an oil change special through a mailer I received. They asked me to come back for the second appointment and they would get me taken care of. Waited almost 4 hours and watched several vehicles get serviced ahead of me even someone who came in 2 hours later than me. Mind you I was the only person waiting on there vehicle. Dan made no attempt to make it right or the new employee who put me in the pile with the drop offs that get worked in throughout the day. That got figured out while my vehicle sat in a parking spot for 2 hours untouched. Suggestion to management is train your employees better and until they know what they're doing with your system or lack there of don't take their word that a customer told them the opposite of what a customer is sitting in front of you telling you wasn't true. Long story short I didn't get serviced and Dan took out his frustrations from a customer who was giving them all types of heck over the phone about what he was quoted vehicle unseen for an ac repair. I wouldn't recommend going to them for anything. They're dysfunctional and not able to man up and own their mistakes. I can only imagine how warranty repairs are treated. But by all means go there if you want your time and energy wasted by an owner who's attitude and mentality trickles down to his incompetent staff. Can't wait to see the bogus reply Dan tries to leave to make the situation look any better. read more

Took my 9 year old van to this facility to get a good overview of my van besides just a regular oil change. They take off the tires and check brakes and even email pictures to you to see when or if they will need to be replaced. I stopped by and they were busy but asked me to come back in three hours which worked for me. I was then in and out and appreciate the honesty of telling me this versus making me sit there longer. Would recommend this place if you are looking for an honest auto repair facility! read more

I called Dan with a broken door latch mechanism on my 02 Odyssey's driver door. He was able to get a rush order in, got the part the next morning, and had me back in business the next afternoon. He offered to stay late if necessary to complete the job so I could get my work vehicle back on the road. Above and beyond normal customer service! read more

What I really like about Team Ryan is that they have a solid process for finding out the problem with your car. There's no guess work of swapping out parts and hoping it works. They also take the time to explain your options. It's not the "gotta fix it now" scenario that you might experience at other shops. I've taken both my cars there for maintenance and minor services. I've recommended other friends, and they've also become fans! read more

EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE!! Over 40 miles away from home, but so worth it. Great communication explaining all options, with no hussling or pressure, and you never feel rushed. The price was great, and most importantly, the work is quality- performed by ASE certified technicians. One of the few times I could actually feel the difference in my car after the work. I will not hesitate to bring my car back to them in the future read more

Sometimes it can be intimidating for a gal to go into a mechanic shop. Team Ryan is so clean and comfortable, you almost feel like you're walking into their home! The staff were all extremely courteous and very informative. They took time to explain to me all my options and did not try to sell me something I didn't need. Their services are very fairly priced and their work was done quickly and professionally. From now on, my family will take all our vehicles to Team Ryan. read more

They charge you just to look at your car and give you an estimate. They are plenty friendly but at the end of the day (after checking with other mechanics) they were grossly over charging me. Nice people but too expensive. read more

Dan Ryan and his staff offer.the highest quality service paired with excellent communication during your repair process. Trustworthiness and attention to detail are the things I value most about this business! read more

This is the best place to take your vehicle in an 8-county radius--incredibly honest and ethical, wonderful customer service, great communication. The first time I used them, they were recommended to me by 2 other mechanics (who didn't work on my vehicle type) as the best in the area. I brought them my van for transmission issues, and they let me know I had about 5 miles left under warranty, and helped me get in touch with the people who could help me with the warranty. They could easily have made a couple grand off me plus a markup on a transmission, but they didn't. Additionally, they spent energy and time trying to make sure I got where I needed to be so I got my van fixed without spending any extra $$. They also did a full check on the van and found an issue that was small but would have become major that Chrysler didn't find (but it *was* an issue and Chrysler also fixed it as it was still under warranty as well). This group is really looking out for the customer. They do a brisk business and 100% of it is completely honest and upstanding. Lastly, during the TP shortage they texted customers offering to share the large box of TP they had--they gave it away! I have no affiliation with this business or the people employed here other than being a very satisfied customer who will return as long as I am anywhere close to them. read more
