After completing an oil change, my brakes were checked and found to be sound. A concern regarding my steering column was discovered to be still under warranty and saved me a great deal by my being sent to the dealer to have it repaired. Josh and his auto mechanics are always friendly, professional, thorough and helpful, above and beyond my expectations. Im so grateful to have discovered this business! They fix the problem and put my mind at ease. Sincere thanks to all the team! Cathy

These guys are always awesome! They have great prices and quality work. Most of all they care about their customers. They dont push for work. Just genuinely good folks. Pretty much the only people I trust to work on my vehicle. I know itll be done right, the first time for a fair price.

I went to meineke to have my BMW checked for a second opinion after I had the dealership (BMW) tell me that there were multiple problems with my car. Meineke has great customer service and they go above and beyond explaining the diagnosis of your car. I am so happy I finally found great mechanics who know what they are doing! They were very thorough with my vehicle inspection and most importantly they were honest and told me everything that was wrong with my car and they were extremely patient while I dealt with my extended warranty. They are true professionals I can not say enough good things about them. I highly recommend them and if you want honest trustworthy work done to your car look no further, these guys are great! Thank you for helping me and fixing my car, I am a lifetime customer!!!

They always find the time to work me in to fix my truck. They have never changed the amount due from the original quote they gave me & if they find something else wrong with my truck, they always call me before fixing it.

Bottom line up front: The best auto mechanic I have used. If you are looking for cheap service go somewhere else. If you want it done right come here.It is difficult in finding everything I need in an auto mechanic. When selecting and auto mechanic I am looking for two things: Integrity/honesty and the ability to diagnose a problem.Even recently I have had a major auto dealership with a reputation for integrity not perform the service I paid for. Historically when I take a vehicle in for repair at other places I sometimes end up having to diagnose it for them. Not at Meineke of Lexington.They are less expensive than a dealer BTW

Richard and his team at Meineke in Lexington are absolutely top notch. They are honest, dependable, efficient/quick, and always helpful. I have had them do a number of repairs on a prized family Chevy Suburban, and they have always done excellent work with honesty and care. I will be working with them for years.

Review №16

I had to get my clutch replace. My car stopped in the road so I didnt have time to shop around to find the best deal. Randomly pick these people because I felt they had a good reputation. They did $1,778.00 of repairs. I paid it, got my car back. I then checked around a few other shops to see what they charge for the same work. It would have been half the price a 3 other locations. They really took advantage of me. Dont go there!

I stopped to see if my muffler could be fixed it was going to be a week and a half before they could even look at it. There were cars everywhere and nowhere to park was very disappointed because I had someone tell me this was a great place to take your vehicle with quick service.

Josh has always been extremely nice and helpful when I call them about repairs and service. Their work has been affordable and prompt. I was very cautious about using a national chain to service my car because of previous bad experiences with other companies. They act and operate like a good hometown small town neighbor.

Let me just start off by saying how much I love the guy at the front desk with the blue eyes! I called on Monday to schedule a certain service. Based off what I was telling him, he advised otherwise and asked if I could drop my car off Wed morning to diagnose it first. Right then and there I was pleased simply bc he didn’t allow me to pay for a service I didn’t need. I got there at 8am and he showed genuine concern abt my issue. He called and kept me abreast of what was going on. I very much appreciated the effort and multiple test drives they took my car on to ascertain a resolution. But what was really refreshing was his integrity! He was honest and forthcoming about how the diagnosis was complicated and how the service was more a trial & error type of thing...and THAT’S something I never felt I got from “dealerships.” Because of that alone they have gained my trust and therefore a new customer.

I had all 4 brakes done my F150 at Meinike yesterday. They are a veteran owned family business and great to work with. Richard was helpful and courteous before, during and after the service. Unlike many places which will force new rotors, he turned mine and the price was very reasonable compared to other shops. Work was done quickly and communication throughout was great!

They took care of everything. Checked to see if my repairs were under my warranty, contacted the warranty company and even had it ready within 2 days. In my opinion, Meineke always goes above and beyond. They are excellent!

I stopped by on a Saturday and although they weren’t open one of the owners came out to greet me and get my information so I could easily drop my car off Sunday night so it could be worked on Monday. The thoroughly inspected my car and called to keep me in the loop several times and I got my car back the same day! Great service!

Review №36

Went to a different oil and lube place. They didnt put in to oil plug correctly. Had a huge puddle of oil on my garage floor. I went to Meineke for help. They got me right in and took care of my simple problem, quickly. I am grateful. The other place told me to come in a few days. I have one car and live alone- my car is a necessity. For something so minor, they were excellent and I have no doubt if I needed major work, this will be the place I take my car. Thanks, Meineke!

Josh and Richard are consummate professionals. Their expertise extends beyond what is typically expected of full service garages. I have always received more as a repeat customer from them than what I would usually expect. I give them my highest endorsement for common and unusual repair issues.

I have been using this particular Meineke for all my oil changes and repairs for the past couple of years. They are professional and I believe their prices are fair. They do not push unneeded repairs in my experience and give honest feedback. It is inconvenient that they are not open on Saturdays but I appreciate their service enough to work around that in my schedule. Make sure to schedule ahead as they tend to get quite busy.

Friendly, Quality, Honest serviceNice to see Josh every now and then. Called at 1:30. Badly needed new battery and needed it installed. Josh suggested that I bring it in at 4. I was home before 5. Josh (actually his dad) and Meineke to the rescue. Thanks!

Review №49

Had a Chevy Captiva about to travel 1,200 miles to the Midwest in a couple of days. I was changing the oil & noticed an oil leak unrelated to the oil change. My regular shop was booked & unable to inspect it on such short notice. They referred me to Josh at Meineke. Although his shop was busy, he agreed to look at it. It took driving the vehicle some more to pinpoint the leak point since oil had dripped on the drive belt and been slung around. It turned out to be a leaky crankshaft seal. Josh and his staff were very professional and showed me the leak point. Josh was able to get a new seal by the next morning to make the repair. His communication was excellent and his price very fair. My experience was excellent.

The Meineke staff have never let us down. We get an overview of our vehicles that are honest and an idea of future maintenance to be mindful of. They have always provided incredible service and reasonable prices. My entire family goes to this location and it is worth the drive to have a piece of mind when you leave. Absolutely recommend and would not suggest anyone else.

I cannot say enough good things about this place. Josh and Richard are great. I recently had to take my vehicle elsewhere due to a potential warranty related issue and that shop told me they couldn’t detect the warranty issue and said I needed brake work to the tune of $700. I said “no thanks” and took it to Meineke where they determined I only needed part of the brake work done AND they identified the warranty related issue we knew was there. All for $270. They have proven time and again that they are honest and accommodating. Super nice guys to boot!

Josh and Richard run this place. They have serviced my cars several times. Very professional and honest. And they know what they’re doing on cars. They do good work. Reasonable prices, too. Hard to find this combination in this business (honest, competent, affordable). I will continue to go there.

These guys are doing a great job. When I take my vehicles in for repair or a simple oil change, they do a great job. They make the repair in a reasonable amount of time and their prices are also reasonable. They call me if they find anything other than what I took the vehicle in for and give me a price for the additional services BEFORE they do the work. They are very reliable and professional. I am very happy with their services.

I trust Josh and the staff at Meineke to take excellent care of my car. If something is wrong theyll let me know and they NEVER talk down to me just because Im a female. They never try to talk me into repairs that I dont need either. Theyre all super friendly, and their prices are the most reasonable Ive ever seen. Theres no way Ill ever take my car anywhere else.Update: I had an appointment to have the brake pads on my 2010 car changed because I was hearing the indicator and I knew they had never been changed before. I hadnt been there too long when Josh came in and told me that my brake pads didnt need to be changed yet. Hows that for honesty? They could very easily have taken my money and needlessly changed brake pads, or just taken my money and told me they changed them. I have so much faith in Meineke that when anybody asks where they should take their car I always, always recommend Josh and crew at Meineke.

I had had an immediate need for a catalytic converter replacement on a Honda Accord Monday morning September 9th 2019. I called Meineke of Lexington South Carolina on Main Street and was allowed to come in within an hour of my call for the work to be done. I was promised it would take an hour for the job to be completed and it was. I asked for some leniency on the repair bill due to the owner of the car having large medical bills from prior cancer treatments. They were graciously able to save her some on the bill. It just doesnt get any better than this. Highly recommend these gentlemen to any in need of the services they can provide. I watched in the waiting room while many other customers were coming in and being immediately handled as well. Great to see quality work its still available.
