Each time I have brought the car there (a total of 4 times now), even for something like a simple oil change, the car has been kept for 2-5 days. The office does not call to give updates on the car - I always have to call them. Was charged $300 dollars for a diagnostic test on the engine this last time, and the problems were not even fixed. An auto shop can be cheap and slow or expensive and fast. But to be expensive and slow is an appalling nightmare. Will not be taking our cars there again.
Description of Work: Car lights were flashing when car was turned on. During one attempt, the engine would not turn over.

Description of Work: Our 1996 Mustang GT sat idle for over two years. Andre and David worked on the punch list provided, the first item was to get it running given a faulty ignition switch. Over a period of a month, the car was brought back to life and on the road again. Everything noted was addressed and then some. I have found the shop to take our car to have it serviced as if they owned it. Fair price for what was done.

I will not go back nor will I recommend their services.
Description of Work: Never going back. Dixie Auto Service could not fix an a/c problem after repeated tries. They refunded a part for it's price, but said they could not refund any labor costs ... approx. $330. So my car still has no a/c and they kept $330. Is that even legal??

It was fantastic. They're great. They're very personable and honest. We had very good communication while my car was there. The price was very average, not high or low.
Description of Work: I have used Dixie Auto Service for auto service. Last time they fixed a cooling fan in my car.

I am really pleased with the service I have received. The car is check over and any necessary repairs I am told about. I have complete confidence in their ability to service my car without doing work that is unnecessary. They try to keep the cost down as much as possible.
Description of Work: I have been going to this service provider on a regular basis. Every six months for oil change and tune up. I have had my tire fixed of a slow leak by just driving in and waiting. I had all my tires changes and balanced. I have left my car and have been driven home. I live close to their shop. I am not sure of the dates or cost because information is not on hand.

I trust DIXIE AUTO SERVICE with my car. They know that I need my car running right. They are very honest. There has never been an issue with them. They are very nice and have reasonable prices.
Description of Work: DIXIE AUTO SERVICE did the oil change and other stuff. They also rotated my wheels. They checked the lights and dimmer. They did the lube, oil and filter. They replaced the oil and filter. They checked all fluid levels and tire levels. They inspected the air filter, the belts, and hoses. They did a basic inspection.

They weren't busy and were able to get the new part and install it in about 2 hours.
Description of Work: Last Saturday, my car was not starting properly. I took the car in to be checked, and it turns out the starter finally wore out and had to be replaced.

For the a/c, originally I took the car to the dealer, and they were going to charge me quite a bit and I felt that they weren't being completely honest. I took it to Dixie Auto and they charged me less than half of what the dealer was going to charge me, and they said that some of the work didn't need to be done that the dealer had mentioned.
Description of Work: They did work on my a/c, and another time they fixed my oil filter.

They did a great job. It took a little longer than I expected but I was not in a hurry and other customers were so it was no big deal. I'm very happy and will return the next time I need service.
Description of Work: They repaired my windshield wipers which went out during a big storm. The motor was fine but the linkages needed to be replaced. They also did an oil change.

It turned out a hose had just come loose and they reattached it. I was expecting to be out a few hundred dollars and I was only out about $30. They are honest and I really like that. They have also changed the oil for me a couple of times. They are just great guys.
Description of Work: I took my Dodge truck in to have the A/C looked at.

While at the shop, I enjoyed very fast and friendly service. I like the fact that they asked me if I wanted to replace the windshield wiper blades instead of just installing them and then telling me. I'm very happy with their total job performance.
Description of Work: I received a battery replacement, oil change and new windshield wiper blades on my Ford F-150. Dixie Auto Service did the work for me.

When I came to pick up the car, there was no charge for the service. Everyone was very friendly and courteous. I recommend Dixie Auto Service to everyone in the area.
Description of Work: Andre diagnosed a "Check Engine" message on my Hyundai. He called to tell me there was a small EGR leak that would not affect the engine. Andre suggested I not pursue further repairs.

Very Well. I initially took the car in because we thought the clutch was going bad. The mechanic called and informed us that the clutch was fine but unfortunately other more serious problems existed. We knew of a bearing type sound in the engine area and we knew we were loosing radiator fluid but no one could tell us why. At this shop that explained that the water pump was bad and was the root cause of the radiator fluid leaks. Since the car had 250,000 miles on it it was decided that as long as the water pump was coming off, the timing belt could also easily be changed. (It was the original). I thought the people here treated my son professionally. (He is a college student 1200 miles from home). I would take the car back again.
Description of Work: Timing Belt, Water Pump, Exhaust Leak repair, all belts and hoses.

Very good. They found the problem on the first day, but had to place an order for the part, and that would take a couple of days to get there. They put everything back together so that I still could use the car for those days, and then returned it to be fixed.
Description of Work: Found a defective electronic part that was affecting automatic locks and power door.
