There is nowhere else in the Myrtle Beach area with this type of service. If your vehicle is having a problem and you want a mechanic who will NOT screw you over, you need to head to Prestons. You will never be overcharged here. Not only do they treat you well, they explain everything to you. I also know that they guarantee their work.
I stepped into Prestons without an appointment....my car had a problem with the transmission. I was supposed to leave back home to NY but my check engine light came on. I was greeted by Brandon and Barry who just seemed like great guys. They took me in right away which they didnt have to. Diagnosed my problem and had me out as promised. Everyone who came in was on a first name/ friendly basis which made me feel very good about bringing my car here!Highly, highly recommended this place! Thanks again for getting me home safely.
Had an issue with the airbag system in my wifes car after a deer hit. Called and got me in the next day. Had to order some parts but called to let me know and had it repaired the next day. Brandon and everyone were very professional and polite and helpful. Car came back clean and good as new. Will definately will use them again and would recommend them to anyone looking for an honest reliable auto repair shop!
I called them and explained what I needed, they went over pricing and details. I asked around and heard nothing but rave reviews.I am so Glad I went with Prestons. I called them to schedule and they fit me in quickly. They called me and confirmed the issue and gave me a total that was actually a little less then quoted :-). Everybody was very pleasant to work. If I need anymore work done I know who I am calling!!
Amazing service. Anytime we need an oil change or any type of repairs, this is where we come. Wouldnt trust my car with anyone else.
A month ago I ran over a pot hole that tore my tire rod and axel, took it to a mechanic in NMB at the time the mechanic guaranteed me that everything was ok, a week ago the parts that was supposedly fixed came a part, took it to Prestons and they immediately looked into it and basically said the previous mechanic skewed me over, they fixed it and my car is driving better than it was before I hit the pot hole, I DEFINITELY recommend them they was awesome thanks guys you did an amazing job and I thoroughly appreciate you getting me back on the road
Guys and girl were all super friendly. Replaced my brakes while I waited. Lobby was clean and comfortable even with a coffee maker. I know especially for some of us not as knowledgeable with cars are leary about mechanics, well dont be here. They explain what they will do and how much everything will cost before they do the work. Prestons is my gargae today and in the future!!
These guys are awesome .very fast.great quality work and the nicest people to have do your work !!!Hats off to their professionalism!!!!
Fixed my truck in like 2 hrs and cheap too! Highly recommend!
Ask for Brandon. Very trustworthy business.
Love the place they do everything professionally and are 100% honest
You Cannot beat Prestons for their knowledge, courtesy and efficiency in getting you back on the road again. They are very thorough and will NOT take advantage of you. They are upfront with the costs and charges and stand behind their work.
Prestons was amazing. Very kind, understanding and informative. They explained everything. Did not overcharge us. They even ask us to come back just to make sure...as our case is a little unusual I was very pleased.
He put a transfer case in my truck and now my interior light won’t cut off and my tac don’t work anymore caused more damage problems then he fixed and still charged $1000+
Always great service at a great price. Very trustworthy I wouldnt take my car anywhere else.
They take great care of all my vehicles and now many of my friends too.
Very nice people. Thanks for taking care of cousins car for her!
Can I just say, they are the BOMB!!! They are the BEST on the beach!!! Very professional incredibly knowledgeable and skilled!! I wouldnt go anywhere else!
Really good group of people with quality work. Highly recommend them for all your vehicle needs.
They are such nice people! Never have I been disappointed in the service we have received from them.
Great people great service. Honest and helpful owner and staff!
Excellent service, car running perfect now.
Prestons is a place you can trust. We were referred here by a friend and we have been treated well. I would highly recommend.
Very honest. Will be my repair shop from now on. I highly recommend.
Every time I take my truck into Preston’s it’s always a family type welcoming and a job well done. Preston, Brandon, and Barry take pride in what they do and everyone else who works there does as well. Whatever you take your vehicle in for have peace of mind knowing it’ll be fixed and fixed right!
Best place for your sick car or truck.
I was referred to Prestons by the former Tire Town and Im glad they did that! Preston will have all our business for our cars from now on! I NEEDED major work done and he handled it! Car was jerking and he got the parts and car rides smoother now! It was worth the 800 plus dollars spent! I even napped and nodded nicely with my headphones and blanket on his comfortable couch while the 5 hour job was handled with grace! I felt right at home! Only request I have is for customers like myself that cant handle the cigarette smoke please bring attention to that and how that can be resolved for those sitting in the nice waiting area. Other than that as a 1st time customer we are highly pleased with the customer service and prices as well as getting me out in a timely manner for all I needed done! And he even fixed a minor problem on my hood and gave me money back! Lol well definitely be back for services! Thanks Preston and crew! Great job well done!
Reasonable prices. Great service. Best Ive found so far!
Preston is honest, straightforward, and a hard worker. I had Preston inspect some vehicles for me that I was considering purchasing. He gave me a full breakdown of what work needed to be done so I knew what to expect going into my decision. After purchasing a vehicle I returned to Preston to have work done and he was a huge help. Breaking down what work needed to be done and how urgent each thing was or wasn’t. He gave me fair prices and got the job done fast. Brandon was also a huge help with ordering parts and helping me make decisions. I’ve had my vehicle back for a few days now and it’s running great. I fully intend on returning for any auto needs I have in the future and look forward to working with trustworthy regular people rather than corporate companies that often mislead you.
Great people, very friendly and helpful.
If you need anything done I highly recommend these guys I drove 4 hours for vacation and they was the only ones that would align my truck on 37s without any problems nice people and great service Definitely the best shop around!
Prestons is the only place I will take my car to be worked on. I have never met a more honest mechanic. I use my car for work and drive A LOT and my car needs a lot of work. Preston always tells me what is needed, what can wait and what cant wait. This is a family business and his wife, Melissa, handles the front - she is extremely friendly and professional. They want you to be safe in your vehicle and are proud to put their name on their work. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
I am very happy with Prestons. His honesty, service, prices and the friendly staff. I couldnt have asked for a better shop to replace my radiator and water pump. I will definitely be a regular customer at Prestons whenever I need a repair or just an oil change.
Weve been taking our vehicles to Preston since he opened the doors. This is a family operated business they give you exellent customer service, honesty and deliver what is promised. If youre looking for a place with people you can trust, this is it!!! #supportlocal
As a newcomer to the city and state, you always worry about finding just the right mechanic for your familys needs. Look no further! I thought i had a reliable and honest mechanic back in Ohio. These guys literally WOWED me with their friendly front desk staff to their very approachable and knowledgeable mechanic! These guys gave me not only a great deal but also gave me an honest assessment of what my vehicle needed. I will praise this shop for all those who are in need. Absolutely fantastic service. It would be an injustice if i didnt give my review on such great work. GREAT JOB GUYS! You have restored my faith in local business owners!
They do not offer many different services. They do have the best value for the money. Very honest and polite.
I had an excellent experience at this automotive shop and plan to bring my car regularly for any service I may need. The staff is professional and knowledgeable. They listen to their customers and provide excellent customer service. I will be referring clients to your business! Thank you so much for getting my car back on the road so quickly.
By far the most honest mechanic we’ve ever had. He’s the only one we will take our cars to now. Fair prices. Good service. He will tell you what exactly needs repaired and if it is urgent or can wait. Stands behind his work completely.
I’ve had Preston work on several of my vehicles both personal and business and have always been pleased with the quality, service and time to completion. If your looking for an honest, reliable and competent mechanic you won’t go wrong using Preston’s Automotive.
So glad I found Prestons! Its hard to find a mechanic shop that doesnt want to just take money from you. They are so honest and have great service! My car runs like new and it went through severe flooding. This shop is highly recommended, it really felt like I was in my dads shop! Will always go back for everything!
Will be the familys go to any time we have car trouble. Every time. Hands down, no question. The best, most flexible, and empathetic service you could recieve. Preston and Brandon went well above and beyond, took the time to understand my situation (which is quite unique) and bent well out of their comfort zone to provide far better than five star service. Dont sell yourself, or your vehicle short. These guys are consummate professionals and still take the time to stay in tune with humanity and honest treatment. Once again guys. Thank you, thank you, thank you for keeping my problem child on the road. If it hits a half million miles (yes I know, way too wishful thinking) it will be because of you guys. Keep up the good work and honest management of a shop; where in todays society, morals can be quickly lost, youve proven thats not the case here. You guys are for lack of better terms amazing! Thank you again!
Prestons helped my fiance when she was buying a used car, they were very helpful with the issues and even gave us another time to bring it in for free before we bought it! Also took the time to come out before close and tell us about a noise we were hearing after we bought the car! No other mechanic would have done that! Great people and very trustworthy!
We are from Kansas City, in town visiting family. Water pump went out on the car and they got us in quickly. Warrantied the part, even though it wasn’t from one of their dealers. They were extremely nice, helpful, and reasonably priced.
Trying to find a honest reasonably priced mechanic is one of life’s big challenges. Preston and his team have worked on both my car and my wife’s car and every time the service we have received has exceeded expectations. Give the opportunity I wouldnt take my cars to any other mechanic and I’ll drive from out of state to receive service and support Preston and his teams business
Preston and his team are great! They really care about getting your vehicle repaired and do their very best to make it affordable. They service all of our fleet and personal vehicles. 5 STARS
Always great service whenever I take my car in and I know it will be the best price. Never had any issues for all the years I’ve been there and it’s the only place I recommend to anyone.
Was referred to Prestons for a mystery issue with my starter. When I got my quote I priced it out against 2 other shops and doing it myself. No one could touch the value I was offered at Prestons. Fair labor prices and fast, quality work. Will definitely be back.
Awesome service
These guys are awesome and always up front about any service that is needed. They told me about a nail in my tire even though I was there for other service. They repaired my tire and completed service in a timely manner. I appreciate y’all.Sam
Took my car to Preston for oil change and brakes. Very fast and efficient awesome prices. An all out super great guy. Will for sure be going back with all problems. No matter how great or small he can do it. I recommend them for all your auto needs. The for sure go to place.
Preston seems to know his stuff. But beware, he will find EVERYTHING wrong with your car, then ask you what do you want fixed. I just wanted new wipers buddy... but I guess we can put in a new transmission... 😒Hell get it fixed. Just bring the piggy bank.
I moved here two months ago and the fan on my AC went out. I asked a neighbor if they knew a good mechanic and they referred me to Prestons. They told me to bring it in the next morning and leave it with them. They called me 4 hours after I dropped it off and told me it was ready. Not only did they fix the problem, they checked all the fluids and even checked the pressure in the tires. I am not used to this type of excellent service, which absolutely amazed me. Kudos to Melissa and Preston for their kind and curteous service! I will highly recommend them to everyone. Preston definitely has my automotive business!
Not impressed.I was very specific about what I wanted done, replace the five dollar o ring on the top coolant hose at the water pump on my F150 5.0Two hours later they call with a six hundred dollar estimate for parts and labor I did not need or ask for.I did not have the work done and it still cost me forty bucks for The estimate!!
Awesome service, fair prices, no false promises! I pride myself on being an excellent DIY mechanic; however, after launching landscaping in with my existing business I dont have time to deal with car stuff. All my friends and family will tell anyone that I am extremely picky and I have major trust issues when it comes to my automobiles! The one place I trust is Prestons. Did the Condenser fan in my 05 Dodge Ram and found a few other minor issues. Very informative, gave a bottom line and a top line estimate for all repairs. Ill continue doing business with Prestons.
They did a great job and were very friendly! Great price for the service and they didnt overcharge for stuff like other mechanics. Awesome place.
Terrible. They took my platnum plugs n replaced them with old ac delco corroded plugs and put water in my gas tank and tried to get me to put a new engine in my truck for 4000 dollars !! I guess they do this to a lot of people. All the reviews I saw were about putting engines in peoples cars . God Bless m he doesnt like when you mess with his kids
The best new repair shop to open in a long time. Very nice people and very competitive prices. I wont take my card any where else.
They always do great work
My moms car had an airbag fault error on and the dealer wanted $120 just to read the error. My mom is always nervous about new shops but I convinced her to try someone new. Took it in to Preston and he told us the issue and didnt charge us for the diagnostic, found a couple of other minor issues and advised my mom on what to do next. Very kind, honest and courteous to my mom. My mother will be bringing her vehicle back for all her maintenance needs!!
You cannot find a better place to take your car. They are honest, knowledgeable, and professional. Would not take our car any place else.
Very honest and fair. Wouldn’t take my vehicle anywhere else. Fair prices and fast service. I will take all my vehicles there.
Ive never experienced a better repair shop than this, and Ive been to a bunch. Seriously, in my teenage years, I managed to seriously screw up my Jeep. Preston really knows what he is doing. I took my Jeep in to let him check out my break lights and he was finished within 20 minutes. Also, I swear the steering is tighter. He has great prices and you never have to worry about feeling like an idiot when you talk to him. If you need some work done on your vehicle, this is the place to get it done. Seriously, any type of vehicle. I saw an ambulance parked out front waiting to get fixed when I was there.
Super nice people. Very honest and reasonable prices. Excellent service.
Heard about them from friends, so came in for oil change. Did a great job. Very friendly. Had me in and out in about 30 minutes.
Left the lug nuts extremely loose on 2 of my 4 tires! Lied to me about needing rotors! All 4 brake pad replacements were not necessary. Gave me some large unnecessary charges for a quote. Price to repair the brakes with all the stuff they lied about was ridiculously high! The old front desk guy was rude when I told him I wasnt going to fix it then and there! Ill never go back and Ill never recommend!
I have been a customer of Prestons since they fixed my seatbelt for me. They work on all of my cars in my family. They also are a great family orientated business. I had interned there for my school and learned as much as I could from the place. I wasnt disappointed and if anything it made me trust the business more. If you are looking for a great mechanics shop, go to Prestons, you wont be disappointed!!
Prestons Automotive Is the best machanic shop in myrtle beach.. They are very well priced, they explains everything that needs to be done to my car before, during, and after all repairs are made.. couldnt ask for any other machanic family to keep my car on the road..Thanks you guys for being so Awesome...
Preston is fantastic. I brought my car there and he was so nice and thorough in the repair, I brought it back to fix another problem.I highly recommend you trust Prestons Automotive Repair for your needs. If I could give him 10 stars I would.
Top of the line mechanic in the area. Recommended for all your servicing needs. Knowledgeable and honest!
Extremely friendly people and very good services. Ive been coming to prestons for a while and reccomend Preston and his shop very highly. I will never use any other mechanic.
Great mechanics..great customer service. Highly recommend Prestons !!
Preston rescued me! I was stuck overnight in Taco Bells parking lot. Not knowing where to turn, Preston came immediately! Him & crew took time to squeeze me into a very busy day, after coming in early to get a jump on things! Good to know there are still some folks out there who care about more than a buck! Thank u to everyone there, especially u Preston!😁
Family owned auto repair shop. Great service at a fair price
Preston has been my mechanic for more than 10 years. I wouldnt take my vehicles any where else. He always gets it fixed right the first time!
Honest, great prices, Im going back here for all my auto needs. Highly recommended
Fast, friendly, and affordable very nice and sociable, I will be using them from now on, and recommend you do the same
Great people to know if you need automotive repairs and maintenance.
Best mechanic around, Best prices around.Works on all my company trucks and personal vehicles aswell. If your looking for great quailty, best prices and fast service call preatons automotive. Great job preston cant thank you enough.
Top Notch Service with fair prices!
Preston has been my mechanic for eight years and not once have I had cause to complain about the quality of his service or honesty. If youre tired of jumping from mechanic to mechanic in search of a good one, look no further. My highest recommendation.
Man of his word, great job!!
Great place to get your car fixed! Honest, timely and amazing techs!!!
This is a great mechanic. I had a flat tire and didnt have a jack they changed the tire in under 5 minute and then didnt charge me
If you want your vehicle to sit around and never get diagnosed properly this is the place. Preston is a loud mouthed arrogant ....... I would find somewhere else to go.
Liars! Worst mechanic in Myrtle beach! Do not trust them!!
Honest people with fair prices
Great shop!
