I have taken my truck to Gene's several times, once to have a leaking rack & pinion replaced, another time to have a power steering pump replaced, and another time to change out a alternator & lastly to fix a loose shifter. Also, of course to have the annual inspection a couple times. I feel lucky to have found an honest & professional mechanic and it doesn't hurt to that they are located a half an hour from where I live <3.

Several months ago, I was traveling from Annapolis to Charlotte. It was Saturday, and the front of my car sounded like my brakes were failing. Found Gene's on a search. Gene identified the problem (not brakes) and fixed it right then. He was a life saver. I highly recommend.

First how can you speak on details when you told me yourself you dont understand how any of it works? I'll wait?........ Should I screenshot every other person I know who has had a bad experience with you all even when your husband did the installation?. Nah dont think you would like that! Their response to my review is so full of bs it doesnt make sense. They cant even respond accurately and factually. Whats wrong hubby get mad when you talked smack behind his back? Lets please do elaborate how does a transmission overheat when its not tied into the radiator and has a constant fan? Common

This place is a COMPLETE JOKE!! My usual mechanic couldn’t diagnose my vehicle so he recommended Gene’s Automotive. My husband called in advance to see about taking my vehicle there. They told us to just bring it up there. As they were ending the day early, it was decided that we would bring it the next morning. I took it the following morning. I never heard anything back about a diagnosis that day. I knew they had been closing the shop early so I called the second day around 2:30pm as I hadn’t heard anything. The receptionist answered and said my vehicle was next to be looked at. I waited

Got stuck with a bad alternator coming down from Jersey to SC. We looked up shops and were lucky enough to find Genes Automotive. Even though it was past 4 o’clock they were friendly, helpful, and set us on our way in less than an hour. Highly recommend!
