I was on my way to get a much needed brake job when the passenger window on my mini van fell inside the door and wouldnt roll up. Big dilemma! Mark was able to work me in that day. I had planned to just get the window fixed for the time being but was told the brakes were dangerous and they needed to be fixed right away. (I had really let it go too long.) Taking Marks advice to heart, I got my brakes fixed. They provided a temporary fix to my window, and did two other minor things for me as I waited in their comfy waiting room. I wasnt the only customer who received great service that day. I was there for a couple of hours and observed several customers come and go. Marks care and concern for each of them impressed me greatly. As a single female, I am so happy to have found a trustworthy mechanic/car shop and will do all of my auto business there from now on. Thanks guys! See you again soon.
Mark and Jesse were great. They listened to what I wanted done and did an excellent job at a fair price. Appreciate the work and service you all provided. Thank you!
Just very awesome and straight to the point. Best way I can describe it. I just know I was happy. And most definitely everybody and every person was on the same page
They were outstanding on my book. Very pleasant and professional. Took me threw all the steps and answered all my questions, even let me look at the truck as getting done prices are very very reasonable. Ill go back anytime. All the mechanics Ive had? Meneke is the best out of what Ive experienced and I get my vehicle back in a few hours not days
Mark was very conscientious and thorough in overseeing the diagnosis and repair of the various issues with our vehicle. He took great care in sourcing parts for us that were delivered promptly, in order to fit within our stated timeline for needing to reclaim the car, which we greatly appreciated. We would not hesitate to recommend the Meineke on Kington Pike to anyone who was looking to have repairs done on their vehicle, directly as a result of the work that Mark and his team did. He really came through for us while we were in a pinch.
I had a great experience here. They checked out my exhaust for free. They didn’t try to oversell the problem and gave me a fair estimate. After the problem was fixed, the mechanic showed me the part he removed and explained the problem and the solution very well. The actual cost was more than fair (about $50 less than the estimate!). I was impressed with the service, the price, and the efficiency. Without an appointment, I drove in and drove out in an under an hour. AND they didn’t hassle me to spend any additional money on miscellaneous repairs. I will go back with all my car troubles!
I had a wonderful experience at this Meineke shop this morning!!! What I had previously been told was over a $2000 repair, replacing the catalytic converter, ended up being a $65.78 repair because the issue was worn out fuel rail vacuum lines not the catalytic converter! The exhaust system specialist showed me the exact problem and gave me the estimate before beginning any repairs. (He cleaned up the mess on the top of my battery at no additional cost.) The service was prompt as I didn’t have time to finish reading the brand new issue of People magazine available in the waiting area. I appreciate the honest and professional service and recommend this Meineke car care center as the STARTING point for any car repair issues!
This place is top notch. They helped me by getting a branch that was stuck under my car out. I thought something was really wrong, and they could have bilked me for hundreds of dollars. They are always helpful and explain what needs to be done. They have changed by oil, brakes, tires, and abovementioned auto-landscaping. Ha. Their prices are reasonable and they get my vehicle ready when they say they will. I highly recommend them!
As a woman I get tired of walking into a mechanics shop with that feeling like Ill be treated like I have no knowledge about cars and can be taken advantage of. I have never been treated like that with any of the gentleman at the Kingston Pike location. They always apply any discounts/specials whether Im aware of them or not and they are fast as well as efficient. They will give you honesty and integrity the whole way through. They value good customers in the same way I value good customer service and satisfaction.
Mark at Meineke was SO helpful, fast, and responsive. Got us in immediately, answered all questions, was very friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable. He made a very stressful day much easier. The other place we called would need days to do what they did in an afternoon. Thanks so much for all your help!
I took me vehicle in for a check on the A/C. I had water leaking in the floorboard and it was making a funny noise. I was there less than 30 minutes and they simply cleaned out a hose… and it there was NO charge!!!
I had a loose brake line, vehicle was put on the rack promptly and the brake line was tighten and a road test was performed, n my humble opinion was a first class operation, even had a Kerig coffee maker ...
Absolutely a positive experience! The manager and mechanic were super friendly and helpful. I felt vulnerable because we were on the road from Maine to Santa Fe and we needed our brakes fixed NOW! We cringed every time we touched the brakes - they were shot! We crawled in from Gatlinburg. We were in and out in just about an hour! Went to the Double Dog restaurant next door for lunch and they were done! The price was more than fair. We were genuinely thrilled and so relieved! I am writing this review as my daughter is at the wheel outside of Oklahoma City! So nice not to hear that grating noise anymore! I usually do not write reviews but their stellar service deserves one! 5 stars plus!
Great work on my performance car, 10/10
Worst service ever in all my years of having any car worked on. First of all they charged me $200 to clean my crank position sensor, not put a new one on for some unknown reason, but just to clean it and put it back on, which was an hour of labor. So, I paid the money got my car back and it blows up on the way home, which was only about a 15 minute drive, because whoever worked on it left one of the hoses that transfer coolant to the radiator off, so of course it blew up on the side of the interstate, and Ive had this car for over 3 years without 1 single problem and in 1 day they were able to create so many its going to be impossible to fix. Thank God for TDOT pulling up right after I pulled to the side of the interstate and knew a whole lot about cars and is willing to say exactly what he saw and how this place ruined my vehicle that I love! It took over 8 hours for them to cause these problems and $200 for me to be able to get it only to have it blow up 10 miles down the road and this was done by professional mechanics that forgot to put the hoses back on! How is that possible?!?! My mother had a similar experience with them so I was just checking if they do this to everyone or is it just a selection of people who know nothing about vehicles?? I believe its a definite selection of people that dont know what is wrong with their vehicle and people that dont know anything about them and dont have time to check it out theirselves, as I am a full-time student and server. They most definitely saw me coming and knew they had a good person to get over on but what they didnt expect was whoever worked on my vehicle would forget to seal the hoses back on and it would blow up in 10 miles and my 2 best friends just graduated law school and passed the bar exam, not saying anything about legal action or is this legal advice, this was just my experience and thats all Im going to say about that. Will keep people updated with the outcome of this horrific event that they have put me in, no car, no money and a car shop that didnt offer a car to drive until they fixed mine, which would end up costing them thousands of dollars but they will never lay another hand on my car or anyone I know who needs work on a car. They said they would have it towed into their shop Monday morning to check it out and fix it, which didnt happen. Nobody will be touching my vehicle until all parties are satisfied. Thanks for absolutely messing the best, most reliable car Ive ever had in my life and making my life a living nightmare until this is settled.
These guys are awesome. I called and asked if they could install a tool chest in my new pickup, and they got it done in 1 hour! $95.
I needed some help with the muffler on my mower, there were only two places in town who didnt just laugh at me. They had me in and out in about an hour, and now my mower doesnt sound like a straight piped Harley. Theyre also very economical.
Professional and polite, but came home after a standard oil change, and found that my tires have not been rotated after being told they have been. This makes me question my oil change and their recommendations for my a/c repair. Check your oil and tires before you leave here.
The plastic front undercarriage of my car was split in half thanks to a broken tire on the highway. I came into to Meineke, and Mark was very courteous and had the car in a minute later. They took it off free of charge. Thanks for making my day!
Overall great experience! Mark in particular was knowledgeable, helpful, and understanding. Could not recommend meineke more highly!
I only go here because they are professional and get the job done right. I still have a free oil change with the dealership I bought my truck from. The dealership can’t seem to figure out how to schedule a time for me to come in or acknowledge me when I’m there as a walk-in. Meineke set my appointment, got the job done, and always find ways for me to save.
Kevin at the front office took care of me. He did great articulating the issues and letting me walk back and look at the car. Just got the work done so I’ll check in as to if anything breaks down. Otherwise happy with the service and care these guys gave.
They performed a tune-up, which took care of the engine light. They neglected to fix the brake light, just changed the bulb. They never bothered to look into why the brake light still didnt work.
Mark was very polite and very informative. I was really glad to see a smiling face too. Hard to come by and I was having a bad morning because I had just been robbed by someone else. They were fast and efficient. Would definitely recommend them
Guys were super helpful and only took about 2 hours to install an entire exhaust system and made it exactly how I wanted it! If I needed another I’d go back
Needed a fluid change preparing for a long trip to Iowa. Very professional, fast and reasonable.
Mark does good business. Ill always recommend.
The guys at this location always helps us get a great deal. We had brakes and rotors done on the back axle and they were honest and told us the front did not need to be done yet even though another place told us all four needed replaced now. I like that kind of integrity and will be going back! Thanks!
Their service was not actually the problem here. But, out of everyone there, I was the only one wearing a mask. Very unprofessional, especially since I had nowhere else to go while my car was being fixed. Service was still fast and reliable; prices for labor are high but they do a good job.
Needed a once-over for a vehicle I was considering purchasing. Meineke got me an appointment scheduled same day. It took less than 20 minutes and came to a very reasonable price.
Took my Kia Soul to them to change all my breaks and a rotors. 776.00 dollars later and 2 hrs later got my car. Headed to the smoky Mountains for the weekend with a friend. On my way home took the interstate 30 miles from my parents house and driving 70 miles per hr my breaks went out. Almost hit a tracker trailer but managed to dive it and get to the safety lane. Drove 20 mph and got to my moms to find out my whole left back breaks drum was just swinging in the wind. Caliper, break pads and brake fluid gone. I called them this morning and they sent a tow truck to get it, as it was undriveable.Head mechanic fixed it and said they had another issue with that guy. Would not refund money. When dealing with life’s of people they should have had a 2 person checking system in place. They do not. They did offer a free oil change later. Don’t think so. Checks and balances not in place there. I do not recommend. -100 grade.
Kevin and his service techs were super knowledgeable about my vehicle. They did not pressure to upsell unnecessary services not needed.I went in for a oil change package along with brake rotors my runs great now.They had a friendly clean guest lobby . Service was very fast but thorough with the outmost professionalism, I expected nothing less from a veteran ran business, will be taking all the cars in my household there here on out.support your local vets and small business.
I got in and out in a reasonable time. They seemed to get the job done at a competitive price.
My car’s oil change and brake work was done in a timely manner and at a fair price. No hidden charges, professional and courteous service.
Told me that I needed a couple of additional services that I found out later, I actually did not need when I got a second opinion and mechanics working on my car were loudly making fun of my car being dirty, clearly intentionally so I would hear them. It went on for some time. Very immature and very unprofessional. I would never give them my business again.
The customer service is great but the price is too expensive. I would check another shop beforehand. Use this shop for emergencies.
They changed brakes and rotors and said all the lights on codes were fixed.. Took filled with gas and wouldnt start and all the lights were on on .. had it towed back to them.
Friendly service people. They know what theyre talking about and helped me to understand what was going on with my car. They did exactly what they said they were going to do and the vehicle was ready when they said it would . The store and shop were neat and clean and the people were very professional. I am truly satisfied with my experience and would use them again.
Meineke in Lenoir City was so reasonable to deal with. Free towing, knowledgeable staff and a fast and lasting fix!
Needed air in my tires and the guys here were so friendly. Took 3 minutes and didn’t charge anything. Would highly recommend the service here.
They were very helpful and Mark was very nice
Kevin is absolutely phenomenal. Keeps me coming back each time. I don’t trust mechanics at all because I don’t know anything about cars, but Kevin at least makes me trust that the front office won’t screw me with unnecessary repairs!
Its a long story and $4k and the whole. See you in small claims court.
Excellent service. Kevin is awesome. He is respectful and courteous, and he wouldnt allow someone to move in front of me no matter how much he pleaded. Far better service than the dealership. I would recommend Meineke to everyone.
The staff is courteous and honest. They get to know their customers. Work has always been done timely and correctly and they take the time to explain the issues.
Had a nail in a tire. They got the car right in and plugged it at a reasonable cost. Thank you.
Was told by another well known shop that I needed 2000 dollars worth of work on my vehicle . After another family member had such a great experience here I decided to get their opinion. The total bill from meineke was 200. Thank you for your honesty and not taking advantage of those who work hard for what they have and know nothing about cars
Happy with service. As advertised.
I made an appointment here the day after I got news from Toyota that my car would need over 2,000 dollars of work to replace the muffler due to damage. Once we arrived at Meineke, we checked in and they took the car back immediately. Within 15 minutes they identified the problem and told us they could fix it for 100 and we were out of there in 30. I am very happy I brought my car here for a second opinion, it saved my wallet, and the people there were very nice. I would definitely recommend coming here, I know I will if my car has anymore issues.
Kevin is the best!. Saved me from being scammed by a car dealer and even went the extra mile to get the repairs done the same day.
Oil change went smoothly. Im pleased with the service
Meineke charged us half of what everyone else was going to. They got the brakes and rotors changed quickly and were friendly. Couldnt ask for more.
They were polite and quick. Would recommend and come back.
Kevin the manager is always real nice and helpful, he always gives us a fair estimate and I always get my vehicle back when promised. The mechanics always do a great job and are also friendly. I would recommend them to anyone who needs car repairs or service.
:) :) :) three smiles up. I came in with some serious problems to my vehicle they gave me a good deal for the repairs and rapidly fixed my vehicle.
Excellent service. Friendly and helpful staff.Above and beyond service.
I recently visited this location after shopping around town for a new mechanic shop. I can say this Meineke on Kingston Pike was without a doubt the best choice on this side of town.The manager there, Kevin, went above and beyond to help me understand my vehicle and the options I had to get the most out of it. He was courteous, professional, and one of the smartest car guys I’ve ever talked to. I feel like a much more educated consumer after speaking with him, and that part was all free!The waiting area was beautiful and well kept. Everything was clean and there was fresh coffee.I was never pressured into buying anything unnecessary and the prices for services are very reasonable.I will definitely be back here and I’m going to recommend this shop to anyone that needs an honest mechanic.Thank you Meineke, you’ve earned a customer for life!
Always available when needed to repair my car!
I have been going to Meineke since 2016. They are always helpful, knowledgeable and dont try to sell you what you dont need. Good place to go.
Excellent Service. Kevin was very helpful!! Highly recommend!!
Kevin and the guys at the Kingston Pike location are the best mechanics I have ever dealt with. I trust them to give me accurate information and to answer my questions honestly. We have 4 cars serviced here currently, in the 2007- 2010 age range, Toyotas and a VW.
Kevin was thorough, helpful, very knowledgeable!
Very nice! Also got it done in a very timing manner!
Excellent service. Very helpful. Kevin was able to get my car in a day earlier than planned. He even waived some of the shop fees to make certain that I could afford the brand new tires on my vehicle. I will be returning to this Meineke.
Great work
Great place to take your vehicle.I would reccomend Meineke.
Just about to drive back across the country and had an emergency car problem. Kevin was really helpful at the counter, and the shop guys even stayed past their closing time to fix our water pump issue. Nice people, above and beyond service. Thanks guys!
Im a repeat customer. Quality service at a decent price!
Kevin was amazing, very easy to talk to, and showed concern when they could not replicate my issue. He strongly suggested for me to take it to the dealership to check if the recalls that affected my car were done correctly for just my safety alone. I would reccomend them to anyone!
I have went to this Meineke several times. Always quick, friendly and efficient service. Prices are fair and the work on my vehicle has always been top notch. Would recommend.
Been using them for years. They always try to help and make things right. Not a screw you over mechanic. They do what they say and the prices are reasonable. Thanks!
Excellent service, very helpful and respectful service staff. Great price too! I will definitely use again!
Had an alternator repair on my 2006 Ford Escape that was going to be very expensive. Kelvin and his team did a great job explaining the details and working with me to get it fixed. Great service where I have been doing business with them for years.
Kevin and Keiran are the best! They take care if my entire familys cars. I trust that they will always do the best job that they can.
Awesome customer service, in and out. They did great work. I have had work done here before and Ill continue to bring my truck to them.
Kevin at the front desk was very professional and patient. The men back in the garage were honest and took good care of my car. I will give Meineke my business in the future because this experience established a great deal of trust with me.
The manager and technicians were very professional and friendly. Reasonably priced compared to any of the dealerships or other shops in the area.Would definitely recommend this shop. The waiting room is the nicest Ive seen for auto shops as well.
Because I trust this place to take care of my car because they do a very good job at it! My exhaust runs so smooth that I can even hear beautiful classical music of notes that are very quiet! For example, the second movement of Tchaikovskys piano concerto is impossible to hear if you just stand still and not make a move. But after getting my muffler fixed I was able to hear those nice staccato plucking of the strings! Now that my friend is quiet!
Great experience and service. Kevin was very professional.
Fast and friendly service that I trust.
Got my tired balanced and rotated, great customer service.
I took my car there to get alignment and tires rotated and I have a tear under my car I wanted them to check out and see if they could do anything about. And I left there with them not saying anything about my tear if they could do anything or not and left with my car making noises and my steering wheel started pulling to the left so I came back the next day so they could fix the problem they made. And they said the reason it was doing that was because I needed new tires. I had the car for barely 5 months and my tires were basically brand new and I know they wouldn’t be bad in 5 months so I’m never coming here again it was a waste of my time for them to just add problems to my car that never happened till I brought it there.
Great experience with quality customer service. I will be bringing my cars here for any routine services.
I’m only giving them two stars because the work and service was good; however, they charged over $300 total to change a set of rotors and brakes. I had already purchased the parts necessary, all they had to do was change the rotors, a simple hour to hour and half for a decent mechanic. They charged for 2.5 hours at $107 per hour. Also a $20 charge for “shop supplies” Over priced, considering the cost at the dealership is $180. (Also over priced) I will not be a returning customer.
We stopped in on a trip to South Carolina. Our van was cutting out going down the freeway. They stayed late to take a look at it and didnt find anything wrong. They figured maybe we had a little water in our gas. Our van was fine after that. They didnt charge us anything and were extremely nice and helpful. I would ABSOLUTELY take my vehicle there if we lived in the area. They are highly recommended in my book.
I stumbled on to this place from a coupon for a discounted oil change. My first visit was very pleasant.That was over a year ago. I have continued to come here because the managers and staff are very polite, fair and professional. Also, very knowledgeable. Highly recommend.
I have been using these guys for years. As always, they have gone above and beyond. They always exceed my expectations. I recommend them highly!
Had a scheduled oil change on my Hyundai Elantra for a Monday afternoon at 2:30. Expecting a 30 minute to hour procedure, I brought some paperwork and planned to stay in the waiting room while the oil change occurred. Instead of an hour procedure, I ended up waiting for almost 2 hours. The excuse that was given is that they had forgotten to get oil and ran out. This was only communicated to me after an hour and 40 minutes of waiting. Very disappointing customer service.
The manager and staff at the shop on Kingston Avenue in Knoxville are very friendly and professional.They always go above and beyond to repair my truck no matter what it takes.I always recommend this repair shop to all my friends and family.They are the greatest.🇺🇸
Very satisfied with their work..been going there for years..
Best prices coupled with fast and friendly service. 100% recommend
Extremely knowledgeable manager and staff. They got the job done at a fair price. I would recommend them to anyone
Great staff.
Kevin was so great and accommodating to our situation. The whole team went above and beyond, staying late to get my car fixed same day.Thank you
Upfront & Honest!!!! The manager Kevin told me upfront what my problems were and told me what was safe to go without fixing, making it affordable!!! I will definitely go back.
Brought car in for brake pads...said had to do complete replacement because of liability... pads, shoes, rotors....and this was without even looking at the car ...$500... budget brakes did the pads only for $100. Then brought car back because engine light flashing and cylinder misfiring. They charged $750 said car was back to factory condition....in way home engine light came back on and it was misfiring again...they did $750 if work for what was not wrong and charged nearly $300 more to fix what it was brought in for in the first place. Never again Meineke.
My car was about broken and once they figured out all of the issues there were with it parts were shipped to them and my car was repaired in about 2 days
Fast service, great communication
These guys are awesome. I showed up Saturday night an hour before they closed with completely fried brakes and they spent 3 hours after work fixing it and getting me back on the road to St. Louis. Great guys. Thanks m
