Candler Tire & Automotive 1374 Smokey Park Highway, Candler, NC 28715

"Realized after the fact that I was up-charged for the price of a new battery, after looking up the exact model online, and comparing it to the itemized price of the part. Otherwise, service was good and fast."

"Staff are extremely approachable, and as reasonable and knowledgeable as can be found in the AVL area for mechanics. Example: if you're considering a reliable USED vehicle in this hectic time when prices are ballooning, one of the staffers will give it a whirl/evaluate it for almost nothing."

"So, if you are looking for some great mechanics to work on your vehicle my advice, DON'T go to Candler Tire & Automotive. The mechanic that worked on my vehicle did not know what he was doing. What was supposed to be a twelve hour job turned into days and weeks. He just kept throwing new parts to it, of which I did not agree to, and still couldn't remedy his complete mess up. Bottom line, I paid almost $500 more than I was quoted and I'm still going to have to take it to someone who knows what they are doing. When I contacted another mechanic shop he asked who had worked on it and then said that he gets vehicles from there all the time due to poor mechanic work. In fact he said that he has a few sitting on his lot right now that are from Candler Tire and Automotive that were completely screwed up for poor work. The owner should be ashamed that his mechanic (aka Scooter) has no clue what he is doing. That's no way to run a business."

"Great experience. Had a flat tire and they made me feel at home even tho I was from out of town and felt like a fish out of water. They ordered a tire and had me on the road right away. The owner is easy on the eyes too."

"I really can’t say enough nice things about Candler Tire & Automotive. My family and I use them for our automotive needs we can’t do ourselves. They are punctual, kind, and honest mechanics that are reasonable and realistic with repair costs. The owner, Wayne, is a very kind man and is active in the shop which is nice to see a owner work along side his crew. Thank you so much for keeping us safe on the road."
