Nice, knowledgable, and helpful. They checked out my car to determine if my alternator was bad like I'd been told, and didn't charge me when they found that it was fine. I will definitely be going back to them in the future. - Shellie B (5 star review found on Google)

The staff at Automotive Solutions are very professional and honest. I took my 12 year old truck in for them to check out for any items that needed replacing or repaired. They came back to me stating that the truck was in good condition and didn't need anything at this time. They didn't charge me anything for checking the truck out, that is unheard of in this day and time. I continue to support them with my business and recommend them to my friends and family. - Judi F (5 star review found on Google)

Barry and his staff took great care of me. I needed some recall work done on my Mitsubishi and since the dealer has closed, I was going to have to drive to Asheville. Barry provided Mitsubishi an estimate that they accepted. Barry was super responsive and very professional. They will definitely be my goto for any car issues from here forward. - Glenneth R.

There seems to be a common misconception among many that if you have an aftermarket/extended warranty, that your car, truck, SUV, or Jeep must be taken to a dealership. This is not true. Non-dealership / Independent Automotive repair shops can service and repair your new or UNDER WARRANTY/EXTENDED WARRANTY. As a positive, at our shop, you can get fast service and work with highly trained technicians! We'd love to take care of your vehicle for you and can do so right here at our automotive shop. Repairs by highly rated and trained automotive technicians with dealer rated diagnostic tools, at BETTER PRICING by a shop that knows you!

It is a law that independent automotive repair shops can maintain and service your warranty. All consumers are protected by the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, which is enforced by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). It prohibits a manufacturer from voiding the new vehicle's warranty or a vehicle's extended warranty because service was performed by a Non-Dealer/Independent Repair shop.

Per the FTC, “It's illegal for a dealer to deny your warranty coverage simply because you had warranty work or routine maintenance or repairs performed by our automotive shop. Routine maintenance can include anything from oil changes, tire rotations and belt replacement, to fluid checks, flushes, new brake pads, and inspections.” It is also important to note that the “Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act makes it illegal for a company to void your warranty or deny coverage under the warranty for the simple cause that you used an aftermarket or recycled part.”

One of the major perks of bringing your vehicle to an independent repair shop is the ability to make your money go further. Many times, warranties will have a limit or a deductible. Our goal is to make your warranty work for you.

Lastly, If you are on the fence about whether or not to purchase an AFTERMARKET or EXTENDED warranty. We suggest opening a savings account for your car and putting back money for possible breakdowns. While warranties are great the limitations can sometimes outweigh the benefits.

Whichever option you may choose we will be there for you every step of the way! We look forward to taking care of your new or under extended/aftermarket warranty, car, truck, SUV, or Jeep right here. Give us a call today!
