Only place I will EVER take my car!

Almar`s has been THE only place my parents have gone to in Charlotte for the past decade! My mom has known Andy and his son Leah for longer. Everyone at Almar`s treats customers with respect and almost like their own family. But the most important aspect of this great auto shop is that their work is HONEST and affordable. I just graduated from college without knowing hardly anything about cars and have been learning ... view moreabout how to take care of my car and Andy and his crew have been there to aid in the process, more than they probably ever had before with anyone else! They are all nice and explain everything and anything you need them to. Almar`s is also located conveniently by the Lightrail so while my car is in the shop, I can ride the lightrail uptown to work while its getting worked on. It may not be the newest building with the flashiest furniture but I rather be inside with mechanics who make me feel at home than at a dealership getting bamboozled! They also have a really cool old dentist chair. I recommend ANY and EVERYONE to take their vehicle to Almar`s because they are the best!

pretty decent service

I went to this location based on reviews alone I called got Myka on phone was unable to give me a dignose charge over the phone as per him it varies depending what there looking for I was like ok whatever surely they have a base rate he could of given, but I took the car on in.. Shop was shabby from the OUTSIDE as well as IN.. I came with my lunch being that I was unsure I`d have to wait.. The owner had some smart co... view moremmet like I bet you got alot of chicken in there me being plus size I didn`t take kind to that start to jump up & whoop his A*#, but I really needed my car repaired.. Well they did get car dx & repaired and I must say I felt like it was bit pricey but the service was good for the most part. I recieved a follow up call a few days later in addition to a thank you card which was great good RP I`m impressed...

Professional, honest and friendly! Yes, all of that!

I was new to Charlotte almost 2 years ago and growing up with mechanics in the family was always sheltered from the stereo-typical `watch out as a female going to mechanics worries. So, I was VERY hesitant, being an out of towner and no clue of where to go. I googled of course and saw good reviews. It was close/convenient but asked my boss & he knew someone who had gone there for years and had great reviews, as well... view more as a local insurance salesman referred me, said his Grandma goes there and LOVES those guys! He said, ""Anyone my Grandma approves, has to be good"". LOL so I tried them and have been there several times for oil changes, bought new tires, get my vehicle checked out before I travel 800+ miles home, state inspections etc. These guys are THE best around.
Save yourself the trouble of going anywhere else. Honest, professional, FAST and they know what they are doing. PLUS, will give me a ride to the light rail and once all the way back to work while servicing my vehicle!
I won`t go anywhere else for my repair/maintenance needs!
Thanks to Andy and Micah and the rest of the guys!

Always a pleasure doing business!

PROFESSIONAL, CURTEOUS & HONEST

I brought my 2000 Jeep Cherokee in with some kind of transmission problem. They were able to take a look at my suv and find the problem quickly and repaired it at a reasonable price. Micah even called me a couple of days later to see how my suv was running! Never had that happen before!!

Micah was very friendly and curteous and I even had the pleasure of meeting and talking with Andy, the owner. I had a ve... view morery good feeling about these folks and now I have a new place to take my car with any issues that may arise and feel like I will be taken care of and not taken advantage of like some other businesses might do. It`s good to know you can actually trust a mechanic when they are looking at your car and give you an honest opinion of what is wrong.

I will definately be back! Oh wait....I already did go back. 6 days later I went in for an inspection and I was in and out in 35 minutes!

Thanks you guys! I`ll see you down the road!

HONEST AND VERY PROFESSIONAL. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

I have a really old Accord with super high miles and have had a difficult time finding a local honest repair shop. These guys were super friendly and honest. The prices are fair. I have a rear motor mount that is in bad condition but he told me that if I am getting a new car in the next few months that he wouldn`t spend the money if he were me. They are obviously committed to creating a life long customer as oppo... view moressed to making a quick buck! It was my first time there and most certainly NOT my last!! I have already passed on their info to a few friends!

Exemplary service and fair, honest workmen

I tell ya, after some very very terrible experiences with other area mechanics, I was desperate to find someone close in to where I live, thorough with repairs and honest. An auto emergency across the street from them, where I work, led me to give them a shot. The work was very well done and the price was both honest and fair to me and them. They even repaired a tire today when I couldn`t get the entire car to the... view more garage. These guys are the bomb!

Go see Andy

Dec 2006 - After taking my 2003 Honda to Steele Creek Tire & Auto on 12/11 to have the front brakes checked, and feeling like I was being ripped off, I went to Almar Auto on 12/13. Steele Creek charged me $40, didn`t drive the car, and came back with an estimate of $258 to replace the front brake pads ($105) and turn the rotors ($153 labor). I said I`d wait and he told me that ""we may not be the cheapest but we`re ... view morethe best!"" Right. I asked Discount Tire on S. Tryon (where I bought my tires) who they recommended and they gave me a very high recommendation of Almar Automotive on South Blvd. I took my car there on Wed. 12/13. They drove the car, checked the brakes, and Andy, the owner (really nice guy), told me that the front brake pads were only half worn down and to just take a hose pipe and flush the brakes out, that it was just probably some road debris making the noise. I will never return to Steele Creek Tire - just another example of an auto shop taking advantage. But I`ll sing the praises of Almar and gladly drive to South Blvd. for anything else I ever need for my car as long as I live in CLT.
