I recently moved to Florence and I don’t know anyone. When my car stopped working I went into a panic. Everything in life seemed like it was going wrong and I had cried myself to death. When I was done I called Woodard’s and explained my situation. They fixed my car and the turnaround was faster than I thought. They were very friendly and professional, it’s hard to find good people who care, but the Woodard team really hit the mark. I thank God I called them, and also thanks to google reviews and all the good reviews. I hope my review helps someone as well.
For the past 3 years I have been going to Woodard Automotive for routine oil changes and tire rotations. The staff is always a pleasure to work with. They are very helpful and efficient in their work. I highly recommend going to Woodard Automotive for all your car service needs!
I went in to have my rear brake rotors and pads replaced on my Volvo V70 and had the best experience ever with a repair center. I typically do my own repairs, but sometimes circumstances wont allow it and you have have someone else do it for you. From here on out, Woodwards will be my go-to place. Im not only basing this off of my own experience, but also how I saw them handle every other customer while I waited to have my work done. Absolutely the best. If youre checking out reviews trying to decide where you should take your vehicle, look no further- you found your mechanic.
Upon moving to SC l truly researched mechanic shops near my area. I was able to make an appointment with no difficulty or hassell. The atmosphere is extremely home welcoming, professional, knowledgeable and caring. They have always been able to provide me with any assistance. Even when l moved once again l continue to bring my vehicle for any maintenance required and as long as Im living in SC. Woodards Automotive Maintenance and Repairs will be the only shop Ill be taking any of my vehicles.
Very professional business, who value their customers. Employees are genuine and always assuring the willingness to help satisfy the issue. I recommend anyone to conduct business with Woodards, I love this company. One of the top company in Florence that deserves an award
Always a pleasure taking any one of my cars there. Fraser is always eager to help and tries his best to make sure every customer has a great experience. Only take my car here!
Thank you Mr Jeff Woodard and his team at Woodards Automotive! I will never use another place besides them! They are trust worthy people and are honest about your repairs and pricing! They fixed my air and several parts pertaining to my A/C and had it back to me the following day by lunch. They are very quick with getting things fixed and very professional! I will forever choose Woodards for future vehicle needs as well as refer people to them! A1 top of the line work! Thank you guys for everything!
Ive been taking my vehicles to Jeff Woodard and his team at Woodard Automotive since 1990. Wouldnt take it any other place. Jeff is very knowledgeable and keeps up with the ever changing technology in the automotive industry. Not only that hes a very personal guy as well. His office staff (Myra and Frazier) are an extention of Jeffs character and all know very well how to take care of customers and business.
I went in for my routine oil change, and could not figure out why for 2 days prior every time I turned my car off it would have a burning smell. Upon arriving, Ricky came out to get my car and before even taking it to the back was able to locate the smell immediately just from my description. It turned out to be something very simple to fix. I was extremely impressed that he took the time to find the problem before even taking it to the back to start my routine oil change. I always go to Woodards for my oil changes even though it is a bit of a drive from me. They are always efficient and I will for sure continue to come back. Thank you Ricky for your help!
Myra and Frazier helped me out, and they were super kind and professional. I asked them to fix something I messed up myself, and they were helpful, took on a challenge that others didn’t want and were priced reasonably as well. I got my alignment and rotation done while I was there. I recommend them for sure.
Staff was very professional and welcoming. Short wait time. Will definitely be back & recommend them to my friends and family !
Our sunroof was stuck in the open position. Took the car to two different places (and called several others) and no one could help. Someone suggested Woodards. We took the car there at 4:45pm on a Friday and, instead of turning us away, they tried to at least close the roof because it was going to rain over the weekend. Brought the car back Monday morning and they completed the repair that we couldnt find anyone to look at the week before.
Ive been taking my vehicles to Woodards Automotive since 2018. Wouldnt take it to any other place. Not only are these guys very personal. The office staff knows how to take care of their customers.
Woodards always gets us in and cares abut our automotive needs. They have a family atmosphere and friendly staff!! I wouldnt go anywhere else!
My car broke down on the way to Myrtle Beach from Ohio. We had it towed to the Kia dealer, but they said it would be 2-3 weeks before they could even look at it. So we called Woodards, had it towed there, and they replaced my alternator the next day. Excellent service, friendly staff, and a clean shop.
I have had two last minute issues with my car where I needed a quick fix and both times they got me in super fast and fixed my car in no time. They are my go to auto repair when I am in Florence.
Didnt let them work on my car because they wanted to charge me $150 just to look at it, and the only reason for that charge was because I has out of state tags on car.
Just a great place to get all your car repairs and needs done
Amazing place. I absolutely loved talking to Myra and Fraser while I waited for my car.
Everyone was very friendly and very knowledgeable about vehicles. Would highly recommend.
As a woman who has never taken her car to a shop, I definitely recommend this one. Frasier was such a big help with the process.
I have been having issues with check engine light for a while now. A buddy of mine referred me to Woodards Automotive. I received exceptional customer service. I was told exactly why my check engine light was on and what it would take to fix the issue . Truck was fixed in reasonable time within reasonable pricing. Will defiantly be coming back for service on my truck.
I always use Woodwards and being that the cold weather can ruin a battery. I recently went to have mine replaced while taking care of routine maintenance. Woodwards is always professional and provides great quality work. I will continue to use Woodwards for all my cars needs.
I was referred to Woodwards for transmission problems. Woodwards did a great job getting me back on the road in a timely manner. I will use Woodwards in the future. Great customer service. Fair pricing.
My car was having transmission issues. A friend of mine recommended Woodwards. I will now be using Woodwards for all my automotive needs. They were so kind and easy to work with. The price was affordable and the service needed on my transmission was quicker than expected.
Great place Excellent customer service! Very detailed oriented on informing you of any issues with your vehicle. Got my truck running brand new after my old mechanic hadn’t seemed to be able to “find” the problem. Just kept changing parts that had nothing wrong just to charge me and these guys found the problem quickly and had it fixed in no time! Traveled from Hartsville and it was well worth it! Thank you!
We all know about the potholes in the surrounding areas! They had to align and adjust my front end after I hit one!Quick and professional service at a reasonable price! I will definitely use their services in the future!
My car broke down in the middle of a road trip with a brake issue. I had no idea where to take my car, so I chose Woodward based in reviews and proximity. They were very helpful in fixing my issue as fast as possible. If I were a local, I would do business again with them.
Exceptional service! Thank you!
I always have a wonderful experience with this company.
Needed my CV axle replaced as well as new brakes including calipers. made an appointment and was seen within the week. They didnt try to sell me on unnecessary repairs. Very professional mechanics and great customer service in the office. highly recommend.
My check engine light had been on for a while and took it to them and they were able to figure out the problem and fix it in a timely matter at great cost! Highly recommend! The staff were very friendly and attentive!
First time in Woodwards Automotive. I just needed routine maintenance done. I was surprised at how fast they were able to get me in. Everyone was polite and professional. They didnt try to upsale me either. 10 out of 10 would recommend!
Excellent experience. I went in for an oil change and they were fast and nice especially the lady at the front desk! I will be going here more often.
I usually dont post reviews, however I was recently traveling alone and my car started acting funny. I was blessed to find this place and all of the staff helped me so much! I was back on the road in no time. Thank you all for your help!
After making an appointment to bring my vehicle, I was called with an estimate and a time frame of the following week before they could actually fix the vehicle. They can diagnose and charge $140 expediently, actual repairs are another story......follow up, I had the very same repair made elsewhere two days later, within two hours, for just over half to price. Thanks again!!
A great place to go and they treat you right very friendly and know how to get it fixed. Will be going back from now on.
Definitely a one stop shop, had some bad brakes start slipping and riding rough so I brought my truck in, to let these guys check and they definitely hooked me up. Great prices and good service. Will be back
They did a good job on my truck with changing my brakes and turning my roters very good with the customers and straight up front with everything they tell you and do good work and I highly recommend anyone to take there vehicle to them for anything
I loved my experience with Woodards. I would highly recommend if you are a person who likes to take care of your car.
Loved this place! Awesome service and pricing!!! Owner was accomodating and diagnostics were done efficiently and repairs were quick and correct.
I had an amazing experience. The staff is very knowledgeable and nice. I would highly recommend them!
My car was starting to have issues, so a friend had referred me to Woodwards. I will keep going back! They had amazing customer service, the problem was solved in a timely manner, and they made sure to explain everything to me that was wrong with my car. They made sure to fix the problem and my car was up and running the right way. 10/10 would recommend them to anyone!!
I had a great experience and I will definetly be back and recommend to people.
I had to get my oil changed and it was a wonderful experience. The front desk people were amazing and so helpful.
My truck has been down almost 4 months. Ive had 3 other mechanics look at it. The latest was 5 star nissan. They kept my truck 3 wks there never fixed the problem woodards had my a wk fix the problem also redoing 5 star nissan mess for a fraction of the cost. Not all price will be the same but they will fix your vehicle and keep you up to date
Woodards is a local automotive repair shop on Palmetto street in Florence. They are the usual place to go for my Dads Audi A4 (2008) since Blacks Tire couldnt fix the common problem with that model. They also looked at my 2003 Toyota 4runner. Great service 👌
Candid with customers as it relates to whether they work on extended warranty programs
Great and reliable place.
It was great customer service and car service got my truck running smooth after months of people trying to figure it .
Took my car here they did antifreeze fluid change. And differential fluid change. Fast and convenient. Found me a new mechanic shop super nice people. And moderately priced. I would recommend this place to everyone. For a truck or car repair.
Return customer. I am very pleased with the services provided. My truck required a new fuel pump. They not only quoted me a fair price but the maintenance required was completed in a very timely manner.
Everybody here made sure I was taken great care of. They were nice and very professional. I would recommend this business to everybody in Florence and all surrounding areas. Even people just coming through town... they will get you taken care of.
Good service and company
I highly recommend this business! The customer service is amazing and they go above and beyond to make sure you are happy and everything is done perfectly. I can tell Jeff, the owner, takes pride in his business and loves his employees and customers. Highly highly recommend!!!
Jeff and his team are amazing. I went in for a routine oil change and my check engine light was on. They were able to put on machine and find out exactly what was causing the check engine light to be on. They were very nice and helpful with the entire process.
They did a great job on my older model Prius V. I was treated with respect and will take my vehicle to them again.
Myra and Frazier were so nice. They both helped explain the things I needed to have done with smiles on their face. I will definitely be recommending yall to my friends!
Exceptional place to take any vehicle for any kind of maintenance. Very loyal. The front office personnel is also helpful, polite, and professional. Highly recommend!
Recent electrical problem with my sons car was driving us crazy but didnt know an honest mechanic in Florence until Blacks Tire Service recommended Woodards Automotive....they took the car and stayed in touch as diagnostics were performed and repair estimates went up and down.....I almost ran out of funds and on the verge of giving up when Woodards went the EXTRA MILE and found a short that was still causing the problem so when Frazier called and said that not only was the car repaired...the bill was now Several Hundred Dollars LESS than the last estimate....Out of 5 stars, I would give 10 for Honesty, Integrity and the Knowhow to get the job done.
Frazier and the staff were professional and courteous. They were willing to take care of all needs including working with Florence Lock and Key to finish work on our car.
Took my Truck in for servicing and their service time was impeccable. Thanks so much for the friendly service. Would highly recommend for any auto needs.
Very professional customer service
The Allens and the entire staff at Woodard’s Automotive are just awesome. Everyone greets you with a smile, and they do great work as well. Honest and trustworthy, just how it should be. Give them a try, you will not be disappointed!
Outstanding attention to the details... could not be any more pleased with service or prices. They have earned my business and trust for years to come
Big shout out to Jason Miles and staff there at Woodards for correcting a service airbag light in my Chevy Traverse. Getting your car worked on can be a scary thing but the office staff was very friendly and Jason kept in close communication to make sure I understood what was going into the repair which gave me great confidence in the result. I can now drive with confidence knowing me and my family are safe. Thanks Jason!
They did an excellent job in figuring out the issue with my car & fixed it! Totally impressed! Will definitely refer people there! Thank you Myra & Frazier!
I was traveling to see my family and my car broke down. Based on reviews i stopped here and the staff was amazing. I explained that i was traveling, and they were able to fix my car and get me back on the road. They were friendly and even offered to take me to the mall until my car was fixed!!!
Dropped my truck off to be diagnosed and repaired. Very nice staff. Said they would keep me informed on progress.
The great friendly staff helped me with my jeep to get it running and back on the road again and were very specific about what was wrong. Also they fixed my jeep in a very timely manner i would recommend woodards to everyone.
My service with them was terrible. I called and got an appointment for Monday 1/30/17. I was told it would cost a $100 to diagnose the problem. I explain that I knew what the problem was, I had a timing chain replaced and it was off and it needed an adjustment. I went there on 1/30/17 at 9am and gave the receptionist all the information about what it was doing, what things I had done on the car concerning the issue, and what the computer was reading out and she wrote it down. The receptionist called me back around 2pm and she said that the issue was the timing chain. I was like duh, I know that... I told you that. So, I asked how much will it cost to correct the problem and this lady said oh I didnt know you wanted us to fix it. Im like that is what I brought it there for. She said let me ask the mechanic and I will call you back. An hour and 25 minutes later she said the mechanic said you need a new engine since you replace the timing chain, head gaskets and valves and it didnt work. I asked did they take it apart? She said no and I said well how do they know I need a new engine. Of course it is giving the readings I told you because the timing chain is not aligned correctly. When I got there they still charged me a $100 for something that I told them and they only put it on the computer to give me the same reading I already knew about. When I crank my SUV it sounded horrible and it didnt sound like that when I took it there. I went back inside with my husband and they claimed they didnt take anything apart and it sound like that when they cranked it but not as bad. I will never ever ever give them my business or refer them to anyone not even my enemy. It was a waste of time and a rip off. They could have told me that they do not work on a timing chain that has been placed by another mechanic when I called thus saving me a $100.
I had to bring my car in for another problem and the staff still were so nice. I have been to other places that are great the first time and then not so much the next time. Not this place! Everytime I have a great experience. The staff and owner are so friendly and never get frustrated with my questions. I hate when my car messes up but at least I know where to go to take some of the stress away. They are trustworthy and knowledgeable. Thank yall for the great experience in a bad situation!!!
Excellent customer care. My car was overheating and dash lights were on. I had no idea what to do or where to begin. Woodwards not only fixed my hot mess car but they took good care of my kids and I while we awaited the new thermostat, fluids ect. I will definitely be returning in the future for all maintenance. Thank you guys for getting this hot mess momma back on the road.
We have been using Woodards Automotive for many years. Service has always been good. Jeff and his staff are courteous. I highly recommend this business to anyone.
This is a great place to take your vehicle, went there to recieve oil change, had a pleasant experience. I explained some other concerns I was having and they were able to detect the problem and get it fixed. Will definitely be back to see them.
THEY ARE AWESOME! I was stranded in Columbia, SC and had my van towed as far as I could and ended up here. They repaired parts that was supposed to be replaced here in Wilmington, NC. They were very understanding of my situation. They kept me up to date on what was going on and they were up front as honest. I mainly delt with a guy named Frazier. Please. If you need work on your vehicle, check with them. You will be glad you did.
Amazing customer service. I went for an oil change and they were very quick and efficient.
On New Years Day our car broke down on our way from Florida to N.C. I googled mechanics and found Woodward. They were open and immediately agreed to help us. They quickly found the issue, ordered the part and got it fixed. They helped us make accommodations since we were not familiar with the area and helped us get around while they fixed our car. They were fair, honest, reliable and really kind people. Highly recommend!!
Great honest folks will use again in the future. Myra made the experience worthwhile
Took my car for oil change and they did a great job. Friendly service.
Went and got my oil changed. Reasonable price, friendly people, knowledgeable staff! Thanks, so much!
The service was great and so were the people. Would definitely reccomend! 💫
Great and professional service as well the outstanding customer service. Wouldnt go anywhere else if I were you. Wish I could give 10 stars.
Caring, concern and honest group of ppl. Very polite make you feel you have definitely come to the right place, the place l have my car service.
Highly recommend. Great and friendly staff. Helped me with all concerns and questions.
They did a phenomenal job on my truck. Very friendly staff. Would highly recommend.
I have a Chrysler Crossfire and have taken 3 different places and all of them said it was some type of pump. I took it to Woodards and had it checked out and it wasnt even a pump! Turned out to be a rely switch and it only cost half the price. My car runs like brand new now!!
The staff were very friendly and they were very organized and communicated everything that was going on with my vehicle.
BEST SERVICE IN TOWN!!! I tried a few other places but none of them were as nice amd welcoming. They were able to put my car on the machine and tell what was wrong, i went to another place that was unable to determine exact problem but Woodards could.
I took my mini there and had a clutch master cylinder install and took two time and they were very nice. Also had my oil changed at the same time. Just had to change my oil and took off the housing for the oil filter and they did not replace my filter...not good, not good at all.
Myra was very friendly and knowledgeable. She took the time to answer my questions and did not feel rushed. I highly recommend business.
Best place in Florence to get your car worked on. Got me back on the road in no time!
Those guys are awesome at woodards. They service and fixed on all my cars and I would recommend them to anyone. Keep up the good work guys
Great service with a smile. They know what they are doing and explain everything that is being done. They keep my cars running perfectly in my family. They are the great car doctor. Plus my wife trust them. Very friendly staff that always have a smile.
Great service and wonderful customer service! Always gets your vehicle done on a reasonable time!
Great customer service. Friendly, fast, and efficient. Good place for your auto needs.
We had another shop working with our service truck and they just could not get it fixed... Took it to Woodards and within a couple of hours service truck was done, fixed correctly and back on the road... We have since moved most of our fleet service over to them. A+ team
They were honest and really about helping me with my auto needs.They put there cards on the table with tthere customers.
Woodard was very helpful when repairing our vehicle! everyone we spoke to was kind and kept us informed throughout the whole process.
Very helpful. Car started overheating during hospital stay. They fixed the problem and only charged a standard fee to look at it. Also provided transportation to and from the hospital. Would definitely use their services again.
