Great experience with Mike at Auto Tune. I got a punch list of service items at the car dealership for 90,000 mile service, total was over $1200. Mike gave me the run down of which items were really necessary to keep the car running well and which could wait. He got my car tuned up the same day and the cost was very reasonable considering the amount of work done. Will definitely return!
I deliver parts to this place and theyre absolutely amazing. I love Mike and Joe theyre great partners and always ready to help out when they can! When I need something fixed on my car that I am unable to do, best believe I am calling them up for sure!! Thanks Mike and Joe for being amazing people! :D
Called at 2 30 with a oil light flashing...had to leave message but was called back right away...was seen by 3 30 ...problem solved..great advice to avoid future problems! As always great service by two great guys and their team! Highly recommend
THESE GUYS ARE THE BEST!!!! Once you use them, youll never go back to an overpriced dealership for maintenance and repairs. Our House has 4 drivers with vehicles over 5 years old. If any kind of issue pops up, we take our cars to Joe, Mike, and team.They dont guess at problem, replace parts with high price expensive parts, and hope that it fixes your problem. Instead, they are methodical at getting to the root of the problem and figuring out the best solution.We have had multiple occasions where the dealerships said our problem was one thing and they were going to charge over $1K and Auto Tune fixed the problem for a fraction of the cost and the problem never reoccured.
Thought I needed new brake pads (squeaking), they told me I still had 60% life left on my existing pads and didnt want to sell me something I didnt need. Very honest and trustworthy business!
Fantastic service! Went in for an oil change and brake flushing and they saved me over $100 by showing me I didn’t need the brake flushing at this time. Great honest car mechanics!
I work down the road from these guys and theyve always helped me out and explained everything really well. A great shop if you ever need anything done!
Excellent work and great conversations every time I go to get my cars looked at.. Most of all GREAT PEOPLE....
Great service, reasonable price and super nice owner and staff. Highly recommend!
Love this place. Appreciate them looking out for me. And being honest with pricing. As well as giving me flexible options of what to do.
Excellent service and great folks! So grateful to have found this place - we have been going to them for several years whenever our cars need repairs or inspections - honest, quality repairs, and at a reasonable price.
Joe and the staff here are top notch. Im a auto dealer and trust this place with many of my transmission issues.
Great place, clean and curtious, I give them 5 plus stars if I could.
Words can’t express how appreciative we are of this company. Honest is an understatement. We recently got a quote from the dealership that states we needed a new battery, alternator and belts. We took it in to this company and after testing and rechecking everything for a couple of days they could not duplicate the problem that the dealership said that we needed and saved us a $3,000 repair that didn’t need to be done. Thank you guys! 🙏🏿
One of the few mechanic shops in the south Charlotte area I can sincerely recommend.
A mechanic with hospitality. I did a state inspection here. I was out within 15 min.
Absolute excellence!! Joe and Mike are extremely knowledgable, trustworthy and I am very, very happy with the top-notch quality of service they provide. Auto Tune is the shop Ive been looking for. Theyve fixed things ranging from a complete tuneup, brakes and wheel alignment. Even odd things like my electric window motor and keyless entry. Me and my tuck thanks them, big time!
These guys are just the absolute best! I have an older car that gives me a lot of problems. They have always been available to check it out as soon as I needed them, its always been ready the same day (usually within a couple hours even), and you cannot beat their prices. These guys are always so friendly and upbeat, and I have never had a bad experience. Its so hard to find a good trustworthy reasonably-priced mechanic, Im so grateful someone recommended Auto Tune!
A great and honest shop they treat you like family there and very reasonable .
These guys are everything- honest and kind, experts. There are no other mechanics; these guys are the ones.
Great customer service! Fast and affordable!
Awesome Service.Took the time to listen.
Good crew. Honest. Quality work.
Mike and his staff do excellent work and are very reasonable with pricing. Highly recommend this shop.
Great Group Of Guys. Joe is the man. Took the time to throughly explain my car from front to back. He has a honest spirit and make you feel welcome when you enter the establishment. Will definitely be back again.
Got an alignment and I was pleased. The manager is very nice
Wow! I am so happy that I brought my car here. It was a simple oil change, but they were quick and did not over charge! All of these chain auto places are so over priced and just robotic, they dont seem to care or politely answer your concerns/questions. This place feels like a mom and pops type business and I really liked that. Good,honest, and reliable workers!
Mike and Joe are the best. I have been going to them for years for car repairs. I trust no one else with my vehicles!!
The owner, Joe, was extremely nice when I took my car in for an alignment, as well a quote for my brakes. His shop has great pricing and gives an informative explanation of what work needs to be completed and when. I will be taking all of the cars in my family to Joe.
These guys have gone above and beyond in taking care of us and making us feel comfortable in all our decisions and what would make the most sense for our family. Joe and Mike have been outstanding and make the drive from Ballantyne to Matthews worth it! If you are looking for an honest mechanic, these guys are it! They are affordable and will work hard to make sure you feel right about the work done.
Joe and Mike are awesome! Highly recommend them!
Five stars because the owner is nice and very knowledgeable. He is always willing to talk in detail about what needs to be done and things that can wait. Prices are reasonable. I never feel like Im being taken advantage of. They stay busy which is a true testatment of how good they are.
This is more a reflection of buying a car from here than getting something repaired. I wouldn’t recommend purchasing anything from them. I Bought a vehicle from John and was told the mechanics went through the entire vehicle and “fixed” everything they could find wrong. Upon driving I noticed the power steering pump was whining when checked the reservoir was extremely overfilled. I was then told “oh no we didn’t look at the power steering” so obviously they didn’t go through the entire vehicle as was stated before. I decided to but the vehicle anyway bc it seemed to be in really good shape cosmetics wise and had low miles. As soon as I left the check engine light came on and I contacted John, offered no help at all and instead offered excuses as to how it couldn’t have been their fault. I have had to put the vehicle in a shop and am now faced with a $1000.00 bill to fix the issue. Hope everyone takes the time to read this, I don’t want anyone else to get taken advantage of in the same way. Be careful out there, there are some shady people. I wish you the best in your car buying/service ventures.
Great service.Highly recommends.
Great place to buy a car or have one serviced.
Always take care of customers, offer great opinions, and are very polite!
Every single experience with Auto Tune has been good. I’m not going to say great because who the heck wants to spend money on repairs? No one! But in my case I have to in order to keep my car running. It’s an older car and I need it to last. From oil changes to tire changes to control arms you name it these guys do it right . And yes you MIGHT Be able to find some backwoods mechanics that will charge less but Auto Tune’s prices are fair and the work is A+++. Also sidenote – I’m a female and they never talk down to me or are condescending and they explain things to me so I always understand what is going on with my car. If you haven’t figured it out by now I highly recommend these guys !
Ok
Im so please with these guys I recommend their Service, expertise, their knowledge, experience but above all their Honesty....
***CONSUMER BEWARE! OVERCHARGE - FAULTY WORK - DO NOT BACK UP THEIR REPAIRS***Did NOT complete verbal agreement of fixing my car for $1400.00Replacing tie rod they broke my ASB / ESP sensor.They did not repair my door locks.A/C compressor they replaced they overcharge me $140.00(Mercedes charges $278.00 for an A/C compressor for my car, this shop charged me $418. which I would NOT have agreed to!)A/C compressor makes a chug noise now when I turn A/C on. (Didnt before this shop worked on it!)A/C is at best cool and NOT the cold they say.Did not replace A/C filter that is to be done when replacing an A/C compressor.Overcharged for the A/C Drier by $30.00On that $1400.00 repair, I gave them FIVE DAYS to do the work that should taken no more than a 1 ½ days. They never called me to discuss charges, fees, problems OR how much the total of repairs would cost. On my recipe there where charges without explanation such as Shop Supplies.I have tried SEVERAL times to get this shop to REPAIR the DAMAGE they have done to my car and all I get is Uh huh to death and referred to another shop because all of a sudden my cars computer will not communicate with their diagnostic tool (this is a LIE).They depleted my credit card and now want nothing more to do with me.FTR: Joe made the mistake of telling me that Of course we mark up parts, thats how we make money. I was stunned for I have worked for several Auto Repair shops and those shops found this practice distasteful as the parts are delivered to the shop, costing the shop NOTHING to order them!Final straw (now working with BBB) I took my car to them to have oil change. I was told if I came in with my own oil and filter it would be $10. When I arrived I was told $15, when rang up I was charged $19.00 PLUS the shop kept $15.00 worth of my oil. FURTHER my car was flooded with oil, the oil was half way up the oil dip stick!When I politely confronted Joe he threw up his hands gave me $40 cash told me not to come back, to get my oil level corrected somewhere else and buy myself more oil. UNPROFESSIONAL!
Extremely reasonable rates for a transmission rebuild, and Joe is very knowledgeable. So far so good on the transmission!
The absolute best car shop, they are honest mechanics who want rip you off, I’ve been to them twice for my vehicle and was very satisfied each time and they didn’t overcharge me
Very trustworthy and knowledgeable!! Ive done business with Joe and crew for years. If you find yourself in need of a mechanic take it from a local guy that this is where you should go. I recommend them all the time to my family, friends and customers without concern as to them being treated fair.
Honest mechanics that care about their customers. Brought my car in for an alignment through recommendation of one of the workers at the discount tire down the road. Ive also been having a bearing/road noise issue that ive been trying to diagnose myself but couldnt figure out but I didnt mention it at all.After my alignment the mechanic comes up and takes me to the back saying that he test drove the car after the alignment and noticed a couple other issues. A slight curve in steering and a wheel bearing issue. He did a couple tests for me and said that the passenger wheel bearing was going out and I had a warped front tire cause my steering to not be straight.Spent an extra 40 minutes diagnosing my car (no charge) after they had finished what I initially came in for. These are mechanics you can trust.
THE BEST PLACE TO BRING YOUR CAR.THEY KNOW CARS.VERY FAIR PRICING.
There is NO WHERE ELSE I would take any vehicle I own.The first experience I had with Mike and Joe literally bought me to tears.After realizing I didn’t have bail money if I paid those people on Albemarle Road, and they just ripped me off, I asked a friend if she knew someone who would fix my truck, she referred me. I went spoke to Mike and Joe, told them my experience, told them I could pay for whatever was wrong I just needed the end result to be a passed inspection.I left my truck and two days later they called me, told me exactly what was wrong and when I told them to go ahead and fix the truck, Joe said I could come pick up my truck at anytime and it only cost me $323.61....they treat you like family because they REALLY are concerned about you safely operating your vehicle...I am a witness these guys really do care about you and the work they do for you. I refer them to anyone who needs their car repaired...I carry Auto Tune’s business cards around to give away to people.THEY ARE the real deal!!
Just one minute of talking to Joe and Mike I knew I have found my new mechanics.
Great place to get your vehicle repaired.
Great place to have your car worked on all the guys there are totally professional definitely know what theyre doing I highly recommend them for all your Automotive needs
We have been going here for years, they are the most honest, reasonable staff. Highly recommend!!
Thank you for being a mechanic that a single Mom with 3 kids and a high mileage Honda Odyseey can trust to get the work done quickly and at a fair price.
I went to Auto Tune on a recommendation for my Volvo XC90 and they were absolute champs. So i have so I took my Toyota Matrix in the following day for routine maintenance. “Honestly, you REALLY don’t need to do ‘xyz’ unless you want to but it’s not something I’d recommend at this point.” Jeff said. WHAT MECHANIC SAYS THAT?! Seriously? Not trying to update me on everything? All the reason I’m taking the time to leave a review and will return to them again and again.
Super trustworthy and reliable!
Joe is extremely knowledgeable always helpful type of mechanic you can trust
I have been going to Auto Tune for years because the service is good and the relaxed, but professional, attitude is great. They are very knowledgeable of your automotive needs and understanding of peoples situations. Even new customers are treated like they have known them for years. The free wi-fi is great but the coffee could be a little better but hey, nobodys perfect.
Told me things that were wrong with my truck if that were not wrong,
The owner Joe is very very rude..They supposedly fixed my girlfriends transmission wiring in her car for 800$...They suggested at the time that the car might need a computer and do the wiring first,so we did.. After about a week the car started to stall just as it did before they supposedly fixed it!!!So we called and they said that its the computer and it will cost about 500$( so now were almost at 1300$ for the car)!!!We were goin to get them to get the computer and fixed it !!!We jus asked that they jus work with us on the price for the computer!!!!They owner joe ended up cutting us off while we were talking and telling us that he is done with our car and wont work on it anymore!!I was very surprised on how the owner acted!!!!I usually dont do reviews but I wouldnt recommend these guys after this !!I thought they were good people and wanted to help us out but it seems like theyre just all for the money !!!I DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!
Good, honest, mechanic that is reasonable in pricing, straight with you from the get go. I only trust my vehicles with Joe at Auto Tune!
Joe and his staff really out did themselves. Not only did they fix my car for much lees then I was excepting it drives better then ever. They even emailed me pictures of my brakes and shocks to explain where the problems were.
The address isnt correct. Google hasnt updated it but they besides that they helped me out in a pinch with car and their prices beat the competition. Will be taking my car back for any future issues that arent warranty covered.
Great service
Excellent service
