Outstanding place. They took me in at 10AM as promise a day earlier. Even had time to replace my left headlight assembly unit. Had a leak on the original headlight unit. Took them less than an hour. Busy auto shop. Thanks

I called for a service, owner who answered, showed genuine interest of what was wrong with my car. Good vibes came from him. He told me a time to come. Shop was busy but he kept his cool and told me he would get to me soon. Gave me a genuine answering, trustworthy off the back. Good report between owner and employees. Busy, but professional, shop experience. I would recommend to females looking for genuine shop experience,.

Absolute Crooks. We had a company vehicle get totaled and towed by this company. We never received any correspondence from anyone until a few months later we were contacted by a law firm with a $3800.00 bill. Truck was totaled we told them to junk it as we did not want it and would be mailing them the title. Not once did they say we had a bill. I’m not having to fight them in court to dispute these false charges. They even filed the collection in the wrong company name but are threatening more charges daily for every day it’s not paid. I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone. Truly taking advantage of the system to try and come up on some quick cash from another company. All the guy could say when I spoke to him is call you insurance company. Knowing damn well when he towed it we would be giving over title and it was liability only.

Jim works here and he is the best diagnostic mechanic in Richmond so go there if you cant figure it out. Plus they tow. Tell em your Jims friend and you could get a little off the towing, just a thought.

Was one of the only auto shops in Richmond open on Sunday. Had a flat front tire with a nail in it, drove it in, a nice employee named George took care of us right away, removed the nail and patched it up within a half hour, only cost 18 bucks. Would recommend for tire work!

WOW. Im so thankful for these two gentlemen! Very polite and kind people. I had gotten into an accident and these guys towed my truck for me back to my house. They got there right when I needed them. I recommend them for anyone who needs their vehicle towed!

They worked on my compressor and I spent about $400 total. Less than a month later, Im still having an issue with my air conditioning. They did some work for me before that which was a great job so I said let them again but well see how their customer service goes when theres a complaint

This place SUCKS. I give it a MINUS FIVE STARS. They more than took me for a ride. They charged me $159 for one tire and it was the wrong size. I was in a vulnerable position since I had driven to Virginia to escape Hurricane Irma and on my way back home my front left tire blew. V L Carter was my tow service and the driver suggested going to his shop instead of the AAA suggested shop. So we went to the VL Carter shop and bought an expensive tire we cant use. After returning home to Florida I had my tires checked out and was told they were all fine except the NEW TIRE which is the wrong size - its too big for my car and I need a new tire to replace it. $159 for a tire used all of one week. THIS PLACE SUCKS and CAN NOT BE TRUSTED. GO SOME WHERE ELSE. EVEN IF YOU HAVE TO WALK, YOULL BE BETTER OFF AND WILL STILL HAVE MONEY IN YOUR POCKET.

Im so grateful for VL Carter. Nobody else near me was open after 6 on a Sunday and my tire pressure was low. I ended up having a nail in my tire. George patched it up & had me on the road in less than 15 mins. Thank you. Great customer service. Whenever I am in town & need anything for my car I will be back.

So, I had some trouble with my alternator a while back. Victor came out, towed my truck to his shop, replaced the alternator, and had it back in my parking lot the same day. Hes a hell of a stand-up guy, and definitely my goto mechanic in Richmond these days.

I actually thought this place was ok to get repairs done. My second visit at this shop they told me I might have needed a new engine when in reality I just needed a water pump. Even if these guys were afraid my timing chain would slip I would have added the timing chain on to the bill not pay $4700.00 for a new engine. This city is full of people who scam. I was ready to invest 600 to $1000.00 bucks and they still want more smh.No one wants to spend a fortune on used cars but some of us will spare the right amount for good quality. I guess when they cant find nothing wrong with your car they tell you your engine is gone. My engine is at 99% accurate other mechanics told me I had a good engine. I hate how shops like V.L. Carter scam on good customers.I wouldnt recommend you to do business with this shop!

I would not recommend this place. Took my car there to get a part replaced and got it back in worse condition. There is now a distinct squealing sound from the engine anytime the car goes above 20 mph. My tire pressure was 31 PSI which is slightly above the recommendations of the manufacturer and they filled them to 50 PSI before I got it back (and lectured me on how low they were). Just because a tires max PSI is 55 DOES NOT MEAN YOU SHOULD FILL IT THAT MUCH.
