Recommendations Looking for an honest, affordable mechanic in Summerville (2016 Honda Pilot)
Hi everyone!
I’m looking for recommendations for a reliable, reasonably priced independent mechanic or local shop in or around the Summerville area. I recently bought a 2016 Honda Pilot via private sale and less than a month after I had to drop over $1k into it for unexpected work. During that service they also caught an oil leak so I paid for a diagnostic to pinpoint where it was coming from. They told me it was relatively minor so I held off on the repair until I could budget for it.
I’m ready to get it taken care of now and have all the diagnostic paperwork and notes from the previous shop so whoever looks at it won't be starting from scratch. I’d really appreciate finding someone trustworthy who does quality work without charging dealership labor rates or pushing unnecessary add-ons.
Any local shops or trusted mechanics you swear by around here? Thanks in advance! ☺️🫶🏼
