We drove from NY and the brakes on our car were grinding. We called and Anthony picked up the phone right away. He found a way to fit us into his busy schedule and accommodate all our car needs. He called all around until he found the part that was critical for fixing our car. He took the time to thoroughly explain everything and his plan for getting our car back up and running. His business exudes kindness, his knowledge of cars was impressive and his prices were extremely reasonable. He took care of us and I highly recommend using Anthony for all your car needs. Thank you Anthony for all you did to help our family.

We were from out of town and was due to head back home within a few days... I have read all of the reviews about this shop on here but we decided to give it a shot. As soon as we got there, it felt like home! We were assured everything was going to be okay and he stuck to his word. I did put it to the test and it endured everything. He also put 4 quarts of different fluids and gave us the diagnostics that was still in the history of the check engine light! I do highly recommend them! Only reason it's not 5 stars is because we were told it would be a 1 year warranty from the beginning but when we picked it up we were told it was only a 6 month warranty. Also, our hood has a little bend to it but it's a simple fix. Overall, he got the transmission rebuilt in amazing timing and we are truly grateful!

I called on Monday afternoon (late) about getting my transmission serviced. Anthony answered the phone and asked me to call back the following morning and he would squeeze me in. I was on vacation in MB and this sounded great. The next morning I called and was asked to come in an hour. I got there early and was being helped immediately. After pulling the trans pan, I was allowed inside the bay to see what damage was being done. I had a great experience with these guys as they took the time to show me and explain my next steps. I found them to be very honest and helpful from start to finish. When it came time to pay, I had left my debit card at my campsite and Anthony was very helpful proceeding with making payment. I would totally recommend these guys and will be back if in the area.

First day of vacation in MB from NC our transmission went. Called Anthonys at 4:40pm and got Anthony the owner as he was closing up. He told me to have it towed to his shop and he would make it a priority in the morning. That's what he did! They were able to get the transmission rebuilt and get us back on the road within 7 days. Very accommodating!

About an hour outside MB our transmission was having problems getting in gear above 30 mph. Eventually it had problems at any mph. We managed to limp it to MB and check into our hotel. I stopped in at Autozone as I was pretty certain it was the transmission control solenoid. After talking myself out of the repair and instead enjoying my vacation I decided to find a local shop. There weren't many options in a radius I was comfortable limping the car to. I was a few blocks from Anthonys and figured that was my best bet. He wanted a premium as he insisted on a new torque converter and rebuild. It was a lot to stomach as Anthony can come across cantankerous (it's probably his Pittsburgh roots). All that aside, they did a wonderful job. He put us ahead of others as we were only there for 5 more days. Our car was completed the afternoon before we left for home. We were able to put some miles on it to break it in. The next day we drove straight home (12 hours) without issue. We babied it going through the Appalachians but it didn't slip or shudder once. Anthonys team saved our vacation. It was costly but at the moment I'm satisfied. I'll update this should anything change with the status of the transmission. Note: The review is 4 stars instead of 5 as we ended up having to pay an extra $200 above the agreed upon price of $3700.

Had a great experience with this place! Was having car issues the day before we were leaving the beach. It was on Memorial Day so not many places were open in the first place. Called him at 5pm one evening told him our situation & how we were on a time crunch, he got us in that next morning & had my car fixed within hours. Great prices too! I got a lifetime warranty with my fan for my car because it was overheating & my ac wasn’t working. He saved our trip!! The ride home which was 7hours with two kids a 7month old & a 7year old would have been miserable with no ac & having to worry about our car overheating! Great people & great services! Very satisfied!!

Had a very good experience with Anthony. I had an issue with my car for several months that my local repair shop in PA couldn't diagnose. The PA shop tried a number of "fixes" (each at a cost to me) without success. Anthony's guys found an issue that was completely missed by my local repair shop. This issue had fairly significant safety ramifications. Anthony tracked down a part that is on 4-month backorder and his guys followed through with the repair. Anthony was conscious about doing only what had to be done and didn't push for unnecessary repairs. Got me back on the road and back to PA safely.

Water pump failed and was looking for a reputable prompt and accessible. Anthony's has a lot of positive reviews and especially important since we were on our road trip and time was not on our side. Anthony's response time was great and we were able to continue on our trip uninterrupted. We have driven 800 miles since through the Smokies putting a lot of work on that new water pump and the car has been running perfectly! Thank you so much for the prompt service Anthony, we appreciate you greatly!

Seems to be a common trend on these reviews but when I called he had an absolutely horrible attitude. He interrupted me the first time I called and they never came back to the phone. I called back a couple of hours later and told him that I was having trouble with my transmission and gave him the code that my scanner gave me. He then asked me what did I think was wrong with my car then since I went through all that trouble. I was just trying to give it as much detail as possible so that we could figure out what the problem was and he could give me a quote on what it would be to fix it, but apparently he doesn't care about public relations

I called Anthony at 8am with a blown power steering line and explained I was leaving for New York later that night.. he said “ get it here and we’ll do what we can to get you home.” Anthony and his staff were true to their word and did a great job at a completely reasonable,(not tourist) price.. it’s nice to see local businesses that care and work hard for the customer..

Mr Anthony was great help to us, we had a customer that broke down in Myrtle Beach, there on vacation from Greenvile. I called and asked Mr. Anthony to help my customer. He promised he would stop what he was doing to take care of our customer. He did exactly that. Thanks for the great service!

I was referred to Anthony’s. Ryan rebuilt the 8 speed transmission in my truck almost a year ago. It still works flawlessly. Very intelligent young man. He gave me some hope for his generation. Highly recommend them for transmission work.

took my car here and it still ended up messing up when i got home. plus the service was bad. the guy had a bad attitude like he didnt like his job. and he said they didnt do warranty on the labor so if they mess up and you take it back you have to pay again for the labor.

I should have known what to expect after seeing the overwhelming clutter in the garage and the use of the reception/office area as a personal storage unit. The owner was very dismissive and I was made to feel like I was a burden on their time. The owner is struggling due to the current economy and they will reach to find ways to charge you for services you don't need. I would suggest looking to other businesses that will respect their customers and provide the professionalism you would expect from a shop providing car repairs services to the public.

This place really helped us out! Our car broke down on vacation and he took a look at it for a decent price and then when we didn’t really have the time to fix it, he let us park it while we went to get a haul. To make it better he even got us a good deal on the U-Haul. Highly recommend this place!

Avoid this guy. Quoted 5900 for a transmission and tried to charge 7625 when it was ready to be picked up. No communication or warning, just a bunch of excuses when it was time to pay. Zero customer interaction skills
