Tate's Salvage & Service

"Tates is more polished and professional than ever now that the owner's son, Curtis, has taken over the shop. They always take your budget into account and start off with the best price, very honest car guys here! Great experience and you can tell they are proud of their work."

"Five star towing experience! Called for help and had someone on the way in less than 5 minutes and to us in 15 minutes (we were in Oak Ridge)! Really appreciate how timely and effective they were! I had called around to a few places and Tate’s was the cheapest I found!"

"Was in a no fault accident I took my truck to have repairs done, with Insurance payment, and my truck was throwed back together and not fixed correctly. I gave them many different times to make it right and when I submitted final chance to repair truck or legal action will be taken I was cursed out, called names, and threatened in more than 1 way. All I have on camera. Do not take your vehicle there unless it's something real small or simple. * just to reply to your madness. .... lol..... 1st thing I was told when my truck arrived was that I might have frame damage before my truck was even put on a lift. To continue the son of tate who is now running company is taking his father reputation dwn under the mud. Nevertheless, with Insurance money my truck should have been fixed correctly. Asking for great work doesn't mean Insurance fraud. Pictures coming. So I have the right to ask for my money back for the sorry job that was done. They have Legal obligations, to fix my truck properly. To close I took same same truck dwn the street to sexton and was showed that shims was put on my frame to wht I was told "twerk n it out". Pic of tires shows, after it was pose to have alinement done. ..... tires was ate up. My front tow hooks cnt be used due to bumper has the shims behind it now. And tis was 3.5 months of work ....... wow , so who really was try n to commit fraud. ??????? In my opinion the son of tate is full of it."

"Do not use this company. Everybody that works there are amateurs. They charge you for service that was done but they use old parts from other cars and charge you for new parts. Tate’s owner told me that my car was finish. I went to pick it up drove off the lot 2 blocks down from the shop the car stopped I had to have it towed back to the company 6 months later the car is finish I paid over $1,000 when I picked it up the first time. I was refunded back $100 store credit back it took them 6 months to get the car completely fixed. Now I’m selling the car, because it still isn’t fixed right. Stay far away from this company. They ha they have torn up 3 cars now in my family. We all now have 3 new cars. Thanks Tate for all the trouble y’all have costed us."

"Love the fact they are independent owned and the guys, they are awesome. Dad and son team that literally helped me in a bad situation. New engine from NV in October was leaking oil everywhere. Found engine was bad and they took on handling this even though it was under a warranty I had been fighting the other business for months, literally. But they dealt with the other shop and Tates ordered the 2nd engine and my goodness she purrs like a kitten again. I've used them before but I could not be more thankful to Kurt for taking this on. You want good work done trust me they do it! I won't use anyone else to do anything to my cars. Thanks guys for all hard work. I appreciate you and God bless."
