Had a accident with my truck and this was a shop that was recommended to look into the repairs. Even though they where packed they still where able to take a look they werent able to work on the vehicle itself but recommended a shop that could quicker. The owner is a veteran and very helpful he didnt even charge me for looking at what was wrong with my truck. Keep up the good work!
They live up to their name…Honest. Two other repair shops told me an additional repair was needed and Eric confirmed that it was not needed. Do yourself a favor and give Eric and his crew a shot to earn your business. You will not be disappointed.
Good people...little pricey for plug replacement
I have used Honest for two major issues including a transmission replacement. They where quick and reasonable and very polite and personable. Honest is one company that actually follows their mission statement and has earned my repeat business!
Weve been using Honest One for a few years now. They have done everything from oil changes to fill transmission replacement for us. Theyre honest and efficient and we love working with them!
Replaced one of the front wheel bearings. Did exactly what I asked for. Paid the final price very close to the initial estimate. Very honest and professional. Thanks you!
I repaired my Ford Edge car in July 2021. after they made repairs a week later the problem recurred! I went to the service center and they determined that there was a problem with the spare part they replaced for me. Eric promised that they would replace the part for me but they still havent done anything! 3 months have passed since I contacted them with a problem !!! I think that this issue needs to be resolved in court, since now they do not answer calls, and when they answer they say that they will call me back.
Timely work. Second time I brought my car in the repair was so minor they didn’t charge me. Will absolutely return in the future. Need I say more?
EXTREMELY HONEST!!! The team, ERIC is especially honest, kind,professional & sincerely polite!!! I cant say enough about how pleasant it is to find an honest car repair shop!!!
Great experience with Honest1. I brought in a car that had an unspecified problem and I had not used them before. Of course, my concern was will they say it something much more serious than what I had discovered in the information I had researched. They had the car one day, called me and told me it was a coil that needed replaced and made the repair the same day. I left the car after hours using their convenient key Dropbox and picked it up after hours as well—both of which went flawlessly. I never met anyone during this experience but they took care of my problem efficiently and cost-effectively. They were knowledgeable when we spoke by phone and it was a great overall experience. I would highly recommend them for car repair without fear of exploitation as is the case with many such places. Professional. Timely. Efficient. Cost-effective. I will definitely use them again for any future car repairs and will refer friends and relatives as well. Great job!!!
I highly recommend using Honest1! These guys took care of my car issues and at a very reasonable price and time frame. Wonderful service and very nice.
Excellent service and friendly staff! Been a satisfied customer for many years.
Eric and his staff are always professional and go above and beyond to make sure things are taken care of. We will always use Honest1 for our car needs.
They have been great with me.Fair prices great work.Great to do business withWould recommend my friends go thereNo bull it is nice to able to trust them and not get ripped off.
A very well run business I arrived early for my appointment they took me right in they did the work they got it done very very good business. Will gladly go back again and again.
I have used Honest 1 several years now and I just dont trust anyone to work on my 06 Mustang w/Pony Pkg. Its been well maintained by my self and Eric and his team at Honest 1. A big thanks to all you guys for taking such great care of my prized Stang!
Honest? Huh Nope Not in my experience. The owner there Eric is a LIAR! Its Sad to use the word Honest in your name and be a Liar. Buyer Beware! They Manipulate you to get you in then rack up the price. Very Unprofessional! BEWARE
My truck needed a simple tune up consisting of 8 new plugs & 4 new wires. I dropped it off at close. The next morning they started working on it. This is something that shouldnt have took 5-6 hours max and they took all day. By closin time they didnt have it done. They still had 3 plugs to go. This put me in a bind because I needed the truck for work the next day. So we sat there til the job was done. By 730 they had it all done. They made a commitment to have it done by 6 pm and they failed to do so. With this being said, I will no longer do business with this company. Also they replaced an ABS hose without calling me first. They were told to call me before doing anything outside of plugs and wires and they failed to do that also.
Excellent service and professional manner. Would highly recommend this team! 👍
Have used this shop for years, they’ve been great. Have never felt taken advantage of, talked down to (as a gal, very important mechanic quality), or talked into unnecessary add-ons to service. Zero hesitation recommending these guys.
Professional, straight talking honesty. Eric was whom we dealt with. I highly recommend this garage.
Wonderful people to deal with. Eric, Michael and Glenn really know their stuff and extremely pleasant and helpful.
Had them extract a bolt I broke off while changing my spark plugs, and put the last 2 plugs in while they were at it. Get the truck home, fuel rail is hanging on by a thread because they just slapped random bolts in it. They also told me that they didn’t have a bolt to replace the one I broke, so they just let me drive away with an injector coil not secured lol. Don’t go here
The repairs are great, but as far as putting all the parts back they dont do a good job. This is the second time we had the car in for the same sort of work, and both times they left fasteners off the engine cover, and this time they also left a cover off. Weve been back twice already to get this corrected and we still are waiting on them to order in the fasteners we need, meaning at least one more trip to get the job finished.
Honest One represented my interests in dealing with my warranty claim. They went above and beyond my expectations. My engine needed to be replaced and they kept my out of pocket expenses to a minimum. They were always very polite, respectful and patient. I definitely recommend using them for all services, small to engine replacement. Thanks!!!!!
This visit was my second for my Jeep. It’s a 2008 Wrangler JK. Both times the service and courtesy and professionalism were great. There have been only 2 mechanics work on my Jeep. I am very particular about my Jeep. I now have a new shop with a Jeep enthusiast and a mechanic who specializes in jeep understanding. He speaks Jeep and knows what many Jeep enthusiasts are looking for. (It’s a Jeep thing).I think I now have the third mechanic for my big toyRobert SwartzPhil 4:13
After almost 4 months they finally told us that couldnt fix the problem, one of the guys told us face to face that it ran and drove. They lied to us had to have to towed to another shop.
After having my car for almost 2 weeks and being told exactly what problems the car was having they still could not manage to get the work done.I dropped my car off on Oct 21 stating that the battery was dead and it was leaking coolant. Almost 2 weeks later I received a call stating my car was ready to pick up. Up until this point I had no interaction with the store even though they said they would call me when they knew what was wrong. I was concerned about the cost of the repairs since they didn’t contact me at all, but the repair man, Russell, told me all I needed was a new batter and everything else was good to go.I picked up my car, being charged $188 to replace the battery, I drove the car 1.2 miles to my house but the car overheated and started smoking before I could even make it a mile. Once the car had cooled down I looked under the hood and there was zero coolant on the tank and it was very obvious that they hadn’t even looked at the radiator or the coolant hoses.They had the car for 2 weeks, were told exactly what the issue was, and they still couldn’t manage to complete the work. Take your vehicle anywhere else. The only good part of this was I only paid $188 plus the cost to get it towed there.Also, they didn’t wear masks when inside the waiting room but they did leave a used mask in my car. Thanks for that.
I got the early bird special for an oil change for our family SUV on their website and it was no hassle. I got home later and realized that my windshield reservoir was leaking and I took it back for a free inspection. The guys at the shop was friendly and knowledgeable. The waiting room was clean and accommodating.
This was my third time using Honest 1. I am so glad to have found them after I moved here. They do a great job, and the price is always fair. Each time I used them they fixed the problem the first time, and in a quick time also. Eric is straight forward and extremely helpful. I will never use anyone else for my automobile service. Thanks Guys.
These guys are fantastic. We were in from out of town and our car wouldn’t start. The owner and lead tech came out within 10 min. Turns out our gas sensor wasn’t reading because we were on a steep hill. They helped us push it up on level ground and wouldn’t accept payment. Not many people do business like that these days but these guys sure do. We were in a bind and they helped us out with not even a minimum service charge. Can’t thank these guys enough!!
Glenn and crew came in clutch for me. Fixed my alternator and issue in time for me to start my new job the next day. Worked late to get it done. Earned a returning customer!!
It was nice freindly clean place. Well done.
Every thing was great I will be back as needed service and price was great.
They were exceptional! Truly honest and good people! Took my car in to get CV axle replaced as there was clicking coming from the axle. They replace it with a new one but there was still clicking coming from the car. They inspected my current axle and found no flaws so they replaced It and diagnosed a few other options that might help fix the problem. I went in looking to pay for labor cost and they charged me absolutely nothing!!!! I’ve never been anywhere that has done that doesn’t charge you for something. They have earned my long term business by always treating me right!
Super friendly, to the point, explained what they found, what was wrong, what they could do and completed it within 42 hours. Made it a less stressful situation. Cleared the code which Mazda dealer charged $170 to not even clear. Definitely will be back. Thank you Honest 1 team.
I love these guys. They are quick to diagnose and fix a problem. They are also helpful with transportation while they have your vehicle. I trust them and Eric the owner has a good staff.
Honest 1 has always been a very honest and fair place to take my vehicles. I appreciate the honesty and quality of their work. Great folks that I plan on doing business with for a long time.
Awesome service and very friendly staff. They live up to their name. Thank you
Honest one is great! They are fast, efficient, and fairly priced. We have never felt ripped off by them and they have always done a great job.
These guys lived up to their company name. They were very honest and upfront about the services provided. They finished the job on time and I felt very good about the quality of service I received. I would go there again for car maintenance.
They were awesome. Very professional and has earned my business. Highly suggest them.
Very nice folks and very fairly priced. They don’t try to snow you with unnecessary add-ons or scams. Great little shop. They did a great job. I left very happy and would recommend this place to anyone.
3 hour wait for transmission fluid change, after i was told would take an hr max.People were coming in for just an oil change after me and left before i did. Ill give 2 stars because it was $100 less than dealership price.
Very happy with the work that was done to my truck. TJ is very knowledgeable when it comes to rough country ANYTHING!All staff provides above and beyond service!I WILL be going back for more work!Every time I go to this business all staff is very friendly. Work was done sooner then expected.Thank you VERY much!!
Honest 1 is proof that customer service is still alive. The entire team is organized in the shop and office. TJ took care of me and can expect me to return for future business. They did a phenomenal job on my 2010 tundra. I don’t normally do reviews but I had to give these professional gentlemen a shout out. They deserve it.
Weve made Honest1 our go-to service garage for any kind of car repair. The mechanics at Honest1 are friendly, attentive, and helpful. They are quick about providing a diagnostic description and repair estimate, and prices are where they ought to be. Very pleased!
Fantastic every time. Everyone is so nice!!!!! Theyve helped me out on so many occasions, calling other places for me, shopping for me and finding the best prices. Highly recommend!
Great people here. Very honest and professional. Had a place tell me something was very wrong with my car, and would cost a lot of $$$.. took it here for a second opinion, and boy am I glad I did.. i will definitely be giving them more of my business.
They were reasonably priced, prompt and professional. Excellent customer satisfaction.
Our daughter used them for the first time recently as she is new to the area. The gentleman she dealt with, Russell, was very understanding and was willing to talk to me over the phone to explain the issues and the repairs needed. Even explained what she would be fine waiting on. Russell kept us informed throughout the entire process without us even having to call and check in. The repairs took a few days but after getting a few other estimates... Honest One came in at least $400 cheaper than any other shop I spoke with. Having a daughter that has moved away for school is hard, Knowing she has found a shop we can all trust makes it a little easier. Highly recommend this shop.Bill
Always honest and very affordable. Was happy I found them since the dealership wouldnt help.
Took my wifes car to the dealership a couple of weeks ago for an oil change, and was told it needed front brakes, which they would be glad to replace for $560. Called Honest 1 and their price was about $200 less. Took the car in to them, and received a phone call shortly later telling me they didnt think the brakes needed replacing now. So much for the dealerships either honesty of quality, but thanks to Honest 1 for living up to their name. When I do need brakes, or anything else not brand specific, i.e. software updates, I know where Ill be going.
Claimed they could complete the job, they had my car for 4 months until they came clean and said they couldnt do anything. Literally no work done.
Great service, decent prices.
Have been using Honest 1 for all service/repairs on my personal vehicle for several years. Have always been pleased with the courtesy & service there. Staff is knowledgeable and experienced. They truly guarantee their work. I had 1 take back & they promptly resolved the issue. No tacked on charges for parts, etc. They even took me back home so I did not have to try to find a ride or sit there while they worked on my car. I am delighted to have found a place I can trust. Will continue to use their shop for repairs/service.
Great ServiceThe Entire Staff Was ExcellentThey Had Me In And Out With ZERO IssuesHighly Recommend
Always professional. Never questioned anything from them. These are the only guys I let work on my sports car. Never had an issue and trust they are doing me right!!!
Second time to get my oil changed here. The owner is very customer service oriented and wants you to be satisfied with your visit. They made me aware of a potential problem with my tires and suggested that I get it checked out by the dealer since it was still under warranty. I appreciate the helpful advice. No pressure to fix by their mechanics.
Great communication and friendly
My wife and I experienced car trouble on the interstate and had to be towed. Honest 1 Auto Care was recommended by our roadside assistance program and so I contacted them for help.The staff there could NOT have been better. They were very kind, understanding, and efficient.They had us back on the road in record time. I cannot say enough about how good our experience was. Please do not hesitate to give this organization a try!!
Only reason for two stars is that they treat customers with respect.Gave vehicle for diagnosis, got back a quote that was twice the price of my car. Some of the labor charges are preposterous. Replacing a thermostat takes 15 minutes and they wanted 84 dollars for that. Radiator replacement was suggested, which was indeed a valid diagnosis. Engine coolant hose labor another 84$? If the radiator is already out, it takes 10 minutes to change top and bottom hoses. Coolant draining and refilling labor charges 70$? How can you remove a radiator without draining coolant? After that point flush and refill takes 20 minutes. I know a computer system generates the amounts, but expert mechanics can easily identify duplicate charges and remove them.Please understand that the customer works very hard for his money. You could have easily cut down huge chunks in the quote if you had double checked the charges. But I was scared away instead with exorbitant charges and went to a cheaper place instead. If they had instead diagnosed the problem precisely, not suggested more repairs than I needed, and reviewed the labor charges before giving me an intimidating bill, I would have been a lifetime customer.
This was the best experience I’ve ever had at an auto service center. I had already heard great things about this place but decided to try them out for an oil change after my son recently had repairs done through them. From the minute I walked in the door they were friendly and helpful. They took my car on a test drive and recommended a couple of things but were not pushy in the least and actually told me that the repair I needed didn’t need to be done anytime soon. Then I went to pay for my oil change and it was free of charge since I was a first time customer. I ended up buying a package of 4 oil changes for $89.85 that includes any type of vehicle or oil. I was shocked as I recently spent $80 on an oil change for our VW Passat at a quick lube place!! I highly recommend Honest 1 Auto Care!
Avoid. i dodged a bullet here. Went in for a brake check. Didn’t hear back until i called the next morning. After that didn’t hear back til i called again before they closed that afternoon. Proceeded to ask for my car back despite their $1,200 quote for bearings and 2 rotors. took my car somewhere else and they told me these guys put my brakes back on upside down and bent one of the plates while doing so. also my pads were 80% at the worst. and the only problem was the bearing $350 total. if you don’t mind spending way more than you need to and not getting your car back til who knows when then i guess this is your place. otherwise steer clear. oh yeah the dude i talked to up front was kinda cordial and a decent liar (for the one star). btw lot of these reviews are fake so big grain of salt with any 5 stars.
Great staff. Very knowledgeable and thorough. Great prices
These guys are great. They drove me to work and then dropped my car after it was finished. Great deal on the oil change and they didn’t try to push extra services.
The brakes and everything was great, just wish they had put windshield wiper fluid in like they said they did/would.
I appreciate the great service I received when I had my brakes replaced and an oil change . Honest 1 Auto Care was very professional and so informative when it came to my automotive needs. It is very reassuring knowing that I can trust and depend on such a great business here in Farragut. Definitely a returning customer. Thank you !!
Very nice, well mannered, professional staff. Did a wonderful job in a timely manner. Deffo. Reccomend them!
They replaced the alternator on my daughter’s older Lexus and gave a free oil change. I was very pleased with the work they did
I can not say enough great about this organization. It is this rare, shining jewel that actually performed over the already outstanding things I had heard about them. They gave a free estimate when even the dealership that sold us the car would t diagnose it for less than $125 hours. They attended to a serious safety issue on my son’s car in less than 24 hours, when all other places had made it seem implausble.They now have my lifetime loyalty. I am a believer!!
Russell and his crew are super awesome! I had an appointment and was seen right on the dot. I had a set of headlights put in. I forgot to buy the bulbs and he was able to get them at a great price. They got me out of there in no time! I highly recommend them!!
Honest1 is a very friendly, competent and open business. They did a good job repairing my Harley. I was extremely satisfied with their work. I trust and recommend Honest1 to anyone.
Came in for an oil change. Staff very professional and nice. RECOMMEND Honest1 Auto Care for all your auto maintenance and repairs. They worked on my daughters SUV to repair oil leak. Very reasonable on price. Great place. Only took about 30 minutes.
I found this garage on google map, not knowing what the outcome would be. I have never been treated so well at a garage! This business went above and beyond without charging an astronomical amount. This place should be your first call for all of your car needs. I’d give them a ten star if I could.
One of the best auto repair shops I have been to in Knoxville. We had a check engine light come on. They will take you through the whole process.
Great service and very professional will continue to use business.
Very friendly and truly honest. They dealt with our warranty company and got our transmission and mounts swapped out more quickly than we expected. Would definitely recommend!
Great friendly staff. The work was done quickly and for half the price my wife was quoted down the street. T.J the mechanic even took the time to explain to my wife exactly what was going on with her car. If your looking for a good place for car repairs that’s honest then go see Russell at Honest 1.
Very good and professional
2003 Buick Century with only 37,000 miles was running rough. Was given an estimate from PepBoys of over $5000.00 for a rebuilt block due to a blown head gasket.Honest 1 found it only needed 2 ignition coils and fixed it for just over $300.00 in one day. They saved me $4700.00!!! They’re the best!!
Little pricey.
Update: I took my car back for a new problem. They looked it over thoroughly and helped get me back on the road. Wouldnt hesitate to use!Quick service and good to work with. Will definitely use again.
Excellent staff in a friendly clean and healthy environment, very good service 100% recommended, the kind of place you stay when you find it, they have a new loyal customer
From start to finish, I was more than completely satisfied with the service. Reasonable prices with EXCELLENT service. Would give 6 stars if possible.
I would recommend finding a easier place to get in and out of there. I worry about my wife tiring to get in and out of there because of the traffic. One to anyone about how good and honest this company is. They have done excellent work on our vehicles and everything was reasonably priced. Well be using Honest One for a long time. John
From the beginning phone call with Russell to the end result was absolutely great! Not only did they live up to their name, but went beyond when I was told I did not need the complete service I suggested. Saved me over $200.00.Now that is certainly HONEST!
We moved here about a year and half ago and from the beginning Eric and his mechanics have been always helpful and informative and knowledgeable. They have gone out of their way to help us with all of our vehicles. We can always rely on them.
Good, honest people. I needed brake work and they did the job at a fair price without trying to sell me services I didnt need. Ill use them again
I went by this shop for a diagnosis on my truck losing coolant. They said they would send a estimate for repairs in a few days. Its been three weeks and no estimate. I will be getting my truck repaired elsewhere.
I found these guys to be honest and professional. They did a great job repairing my vehicle. I will definitely use them again.
Wonderful customer service. Fantastic car repair. Came in for a sound, left with a fixed vehicle after very little wait for not having an appointment. Problem solved. The price was very reasonable. Clean facilities. I would recommend them to anyone with car care needs. Thank you for getting me back on the road so quickly and safely!
This place opens as early as 7 am and that, itself, stood out to me. I was able to get in and out, in time for my daughter to go to school. They are professional and the prices are very reasonable. Tony, the manager, was really nice. The waiting area was very neat and clean and it wasnt too cold nor too warm. This was my first time coming to Honest-1, but it definitely wont be my last. I had a few questions after my visit and when I called, Emily answered. She was able to answer them and made me feel that they really valued my business. If you ever have any auto care needs and want to pay reasonable prices without having to jeopardize the quality of the services rendered, stop by Honest-1 Auto Care near the Farragut area and give them a chance.
It was a blessing for us to find Honest 1 Auto. When I called for the first time, TJ answered the phone and was so knowledgeable about my Dodge Grand Caravan and he has great customer service skills. He is the mechanic there and give me a peace of mind about my vehicle. I had a major engine problem and it was under warranty. The warranty company was very hard to deal with but Russell got everything resolved and I just had to pay my $100 deductible. I cant say enought about them. They are all awesome. Also Eric the owner loaned me one of his vehicles because of my major engine problem that it would take awhile to fix. Thank you Eric, you saved me over $400 from not having to rent a car. Thank you so much to all that helped us with our van. We are so grateful. It is very difficult to trust mechanics these days but Honest 1 Auto is very honest and they are very trustworthy!!
Very highly impressed with courteous employees, excellent and prompt service. I asked for four wheel alignment, but they replied after checking, only front-end needed. That saved $40.I also value their warranty and the free road service. I will use them I, the future.Jim Chisholm, Knoxville
I am very happy with the service, they went above and beyond to make sure my slide door worked even though it was difficult job. I will recommend anyone use their business.
I’ve been to 3 other repair shops with the same issue. All of them had me replace a part, but non fixed the problem. Honest1 is the first one that got it right! Plus, they were super nice. My car is running smooth again! They’ll be my only repair shop from now on.
Courteous staff, quick service, great perks for having work done here, extremely convenient - Ill be back with all of my future vehicles.
May God continue to bless your place of business. Prices are very fair. The friend that took me to pick up my car Today asked for a check up because of a grinding sound, and they took out her tires and fixed it right there free of charge. Of all the car shops in Knoxville, I recommend Honest-1 because they showed me kindness and are of good character. Love never fails.
These guys took great care of my 2006 Honda Pilot. They spent the time to track down the noise and performance issues I was having, gave me a fair estimate and fixed everything. The car drives better than it has in years. Thank you for living up to your name.
