Hats off to the management. This place runs like a well oiled machine. I took my mustang in for a front end alignment and they did a superb job. They technicians took the time to explain the process and made suggestions to make my baby perform at the optimum level. These improvements will make my four new tires wear much better. I am greatful for budget tires of Greenville recommending this shop to me. They are a full service garage and I am pretty sure I will be utilizing this place again for my car maintenance and repair needs.

This has to be the cleanest garage/office Ive ever seen in my life! Great bunch of guys! Very helpful too! I was told by dupont on wade Hampton that I needed a new wheel bearing on my back wheel, and so I had Bryants order the part,and put it on. They did a great job,however they let me know that I was misdiagnosed from Dupont! They did not charge me for the labor! Plus,they fixed the real probem,prrfectly,problem,, charge! They are very kind and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this garage!

Kar-Gard is my go-to whenever I have a mechanical issue with my Nissan. I never feel like they are trying to rip me off.

Ernie and the guys at Kar-Gard are the best and I wouldnt take my cars anywhere else. They always do a great job for me and my familys vehicles, from brakes to oil changes, AC or whatever I need. Fair prices and honest service every time. Its so nice to have a mechanic you can depend on. Ernie didnt even charge me for a fan switch replacement - twice. Thankful for these guys and I highly recommend them!

As a mechanic myself, I know how to recognize good work.... Ernie and his staff of experienced mechanics always do a good job when I refer my clients to them and I know I can trust that they do honest, quality work at fair prices. They are my place to go, especially for tires and exhaust work.

I saw some great 5 star reviews on how good and honest Ernie is servicing vehicles so I gave Bryant’s Kar-Gard a look.I went by and met the owner Ernie and told him what I wanted in a performance exhaust system for my 2019 Ram 1500.I truly expected to pay $800-$1,000.Ernie took the time to put my truck up on a lift to look at my exhaust system and let me explain what I was trying to accomplish.When I was finished Ernie showed me what he could do to accomplish exactly what I needed and with parts and labor he only charged me $250.00!!Ernie could have easily done more unneeded work( which I requested) and charged me way more money, but he didn’t.A truly honest car repair service!He saved me at minimum $750.00!!!I will send anybody I know ( or don’t know)to Bryant’s Kar-Gard for great reputable service at an honest price.Be sure to ask for Ernie.Charles

Ernie is an honest hardworking family man. My husband and I have been customers for about 5 years. Ernie always gives us the best price and never takes advantage, selling us things we dont need. The job is always done right, they stand behind their work and I trust them! They also are great with accommodating on short notice. We wont go anywhere else!

Trust worthy and very helpful. I took my car here thinking I needed expensive brake work. The employee and owner found that the issue was an easy fix, not the issue that I thought I had with the brakes. They fixed it for free, although they easily could have sold me a much more expensive repair. Highly recommend.

Ive been going here for a few years and always have a good experience. As a female, I always feel like Im getting ripped off when it comes to car repair. I had my brakes repaired and the employee took me back and showed me what the problem was. They do great work and arent overly expensive. Always good customer service. I highly recommend!!

So my husband took our Ram truck here because of squeak in the suspension. He had taken it to two other mechanics that he very much trusts. The first place said I need new shocks/struts to the tune of 600-800 dollars. The next guy sprayed some lubricant on a few joint areas hoping that would fix it. Finally I stop at Bryant’s Kar-Gard. The owner immediately walks out and names the problem before looking under the truck. He just as knowledgeable and friendly. In the end he charged me less than he originally quoted me! This was a win/win!

I had a wheel bearing and hub replacement back in April. Under a month later the right side of my car was vibrating again. I was told that the vibration on my car was caused my a engine mount that was probably bad. While also being told I shouldn’t bother to fix it because my make and model has issues with them and would be doing it again in a few months. I have a picture that shows the bearing was hammered and crushed while being put in. I had a certified mechanic fix this issue and was shocked to hear this was the reason I was having so many issues with that side of my car. It has work my tire prematurely and made it extremely unsafe to drive. You can see if you look closely in the picture that it was heated up so badly that it discolored the metal. This is very dangerous and am lucky nothing much worse happened to me. I spoke with the owner who belittled me and told me that it was not his fault but O’Reillys because it was a faulty part. He refuses to remedy the situation at all. I was told he would be suing me for slander and now I’m going to have to look into taking legal action to get my money back for something that should have been done right the first time. I also had breaks done back in October that are also having issues already. So if I can help anyone else avoid this headache by writing this review I will.

Review №38

Had them replace the pinion seal and front bearing in the reared of my F150. Didn’t drive the truck much after that. About three months later had to have it towed to a different shop. Prior to hearing the bearing failing under the excess pressure I noticed it felt like I was towing a trailer when I drove it. Once I got it up on a lift and in neutral it took two hands to get the rear wheels to even turn a little. Seems the mechanic that installed the bearing and seal over tightened it which resulted in the inner bearing being destroyed. No offer to stand behind their mistake. $552 out of my pocket to fix it plus an $80 tow bill. Not to mention the money I paid them for parts and labor to create this issue in the first place. I DO NOT recommend this shop.

Fixed the problem. Though wasnt what he initially thought it was, and the part was cheaper than what we initially thought, the labor was already done. Since the labor was already done, he threw in a water pump as well. ALL DONE BELOW ORIGINAL ESTIMATE! Now the entire cooling system is bulletproof, and I saved $500 on a water pump Id probably replace in the next year anyways!Want to save a ton of money? Go see these guys.

Today I witnessed customer service at its worst. I walked into kar-gard to see about getting my 2007 f-150 an alignment. As I was waiting to be helped there was a lady waiting also. She told me she has been waiting for someone to come out for over 10 minutes. Then when an employee came out, he was so rude to the woman I had to speak up. So bottom line: I would not appreciate it if it was my wife. They will not be getting any business from me, my family, or friends.

Review №49

Yea they sound like a reasonable company. My mom still likes them after they put the WRONG TIRES on her truck and want her to pay extra to fix THEIR oversight. So my mom buys a used 2012 Chevy Silverado 2500, and she takes it to these guys to have the tires replaced. Turns out theres a dangerous kind of tire that fits this trucks rims and a safe one that fits the rims. She bought the truck with the dangerous tires already on it and these guys go and ASSUME she wants the new tires to be the dangerous ones too. The only reason she found out they put on the tires that were not made for that particular truck is because an observant mechanic at another shop that later changed the oil noticed it. So she returns to Kar-Gard and basically says here, fix your screwup. The guy at the front desk discounts the mechanics that pointed out the wrong tires even though they werent wrong in their assessment. This guy at the front desk admitted they did, in fact, put the dangerous tires on the truck. And he wants her to pay extra to get the right tires put on the truck. WRONG. Own your mistake. Dont make a sweet lady pay for extra for your screwup. Ill take this review down if that happens.

I felt Kar-Gard was going to be a great place to fix my car problems. I called to inquire about services concerning my vehicle the owner Ernie was very pleasant and helpful with providing his thoughts and quotes on pricing appointment was setup to bring in vehicle. Day of scheduled appointment I arrive at @8:30 am, I enter into office there is no one to greet me through the window I can see a gentlemen in conversation with another gentlemen. I wait thinking okay he sees me standing here hell be right in, nope I continue to wait as I see he has no regard to scurry to help me. He finally comes into the office we discuss services. I receive a call at exactly 11:47am I am told he can fix 1 out of my 3 problems. Problem 2 he says he prefers I take it to the dealership and problem 3 was told there was no need to fix until problem 2 gets fixed. Proceeded with problem 1 getting done( brakes/rotors only rear). I receive a call at exactly 2:54 pm stating car is ready. I arrive back to Kar-Gard enter office no one to greet me I wait Ernie enters, pay for services, end of transaction...so I think. I go to start my car and car shuts off, 2nd attempt to start car,car does the same. I go back to the mechanic area inform an employee of the problem, he responds in a loud and rude manner my car had problems when you brought it in I realize he is not the person I need to speak with. I speak to owner agree to leave car on lot, another price quoted. I went 4 days without a car. On day 4 around 1:00pm I CALLED to inquire if my car was ready, was told yes it has been ready for an hour and price quoted had changed. Quoted price was given for service that was provided by Kar-Gard. To sum things up I was told my car will not be serviced by Kar-Gard in the future.
