"Bottom line - most people suck but Dillon and his team are solid, honest people and that’s why I’ll never use another mechanic unless he sends me to a specialist. Took my truck to three Ford dealerships, including Palmetto, and one other mechanic. Estimates ranged from $2,400 to $5,000 to for totally different scopes of work to fix the same problem. I was told I needed to replace cam phasers, then told I needed a new catalytic converter, one guy replaced all my plugs/coil packs - but none of it made sense and the one repair I did didn’t fix the issue. Dillon and his team did $175 worth of repairs and my truck runs like new again. Give them your business because they are honest, good people."

"I bought a classic, 30 year old van. I took it to AA for service. Dillon and his team are top notch! I’m a female. Dillon would take the time to explain the issue to me, what he would do to repair it, and why! Even more shocking? The price!! He was very fair, reasonable and affordable!! I’ve never met a more helpful, patient and personable mechanic in my life! He is the ONLY person I would trust my van to!! (I tried to push a tip on him, but he refused.)"

"Fantastic experience! So happy. Key drop off option. Owner is a mechanic. This shop fixed my car, at a reasonable rate, quickly and explained what the problem was. Gave me advice going forward.I really appreciate this shop. Definitely trust them to work on my really old car. Thanks a lot."

"was quoted $300 just to fix the hangers on my car by somewhere else but american automotive did it for half of the price!! not only that but also did me a favor and fixed my flash shield. i dropped off my car after hours at night and they literally had my car ready an hour after they were open the next day!!! super speedy and very nice staff. 10/10 would recommend"

"I searched far and wide in the Charleston area for a long time for someone to do muffler work before I found myself in American Automotive. While other shops turned away the work, the owner at American Automotive was able to work me in the next business day and he took care of everything flawlessly. He made it a seamless transaction and I couldn’t be happier with the work and outcome. I highly recommend this shop."
