Meineke Car Care Center

"The service at Meineke was an eye opening experience. It started off great I went in for an oil change and brakes service on my car. However after they were done with my car the lady at the front said that the battery was low and that they had a hard time starting up the car and that I would need a new battery. I was honest and told her I did not have any money and the most I could do was 50 to 100. She did some research and could not find a battery that fit my price range. She advised me to go to Walmart and get a battery and then come back. I went to Advance Auto for a second opinion, they ran a diagnostic on my battery and it turns out that my battery was in great condition and did not need a replacement. Over all I felt like the staff at Meineke was trying to take advantage of me and I will not be back for a future service."

"DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR HERE FOR ANY REASON!!!!!! On October 27th 2023 I took my car in after the check engine light popped on. I had roughly $5,000 dollars worth of work done (gaskets, sparkplugs, compressor etc.) on a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Two days post-picking up the car from service at this location, the engine light came on flashing with catastrophic damage. Got the Jeep towed to the Big O Dealership and they let me know there was an obstruction in the cylinder... after the tear down they found an intake bolt in the engine cylinder THAT WAS LEFT BY MEINEKE. John from Meineke continued to gaslight me and not take responsibility (they still havent apologized to this day) for totaling my engine. They blamed everyone they possibly could and even cited manufacturer error?!? Thankfully after weeks of phone calls and having to get legal support, their insurance reached out to me for an investigation that they were found at fault for the damage. BUT THE AUDACITY BY THIS SHIP OF FOOLS CONTINUES...... They went ahead and installed a new engine without consulting me at all... no phone call, email, message nothing which i think might be a crime ( I was going to use BIG O Dodge to install and procure my new engine) and they filled the engine with incorrect coolant. Luckily Big O Dodge inspected before any damage could be done. On this day 2-7-2024 i finally have a working vehicle almost four months later. Countless ubers, rental cars, and stress bumming rides that will never be recoupped. End of story Dont. Use. This. Facility If you have any questions please reach out to me!! Would be happy to save some other people the hassle"

"Juan and Rod have been working on my cars for over a decade. They always try to get the best price on parts. I have recommended Meineke to all of my friends and will continue to do so."

"My car was having an issue shutting off when it was left idle and when driving, it felt like it would just shut off. I was also loosing oil too quickly. I took my car to a couple shops to figure out what was going on and no one was able to figure it out therefore a waste of money. My grandmother recommended Meineke on Wade Hampton so I took it in and it only took them an hour or so to figure out what was going on and fix the issues! My car has been running smoothly since then! I’m so grateful for them! I travel a lot so my car is essential to me so thank you so much! Definitely will be going back to them in future!"

"Had an unusual issue with my car a few months ago, on top of logistical difficulties on my end. John & his team helped me through everything at a moment’s notice, and with very thorough communication regarding my vehicle’s condition. I was back on the road sooner than expected, and plan to go back to continue more minor work as I’m able. Tysm!!"
