Great service! Tracey at the front is super helpful and friendly. I was expecting to have to leave my car for a couple days, but they stayed a little past their normal closing time to get my car finished. Very much appreciated. Everything is fixed and working perfectly. They also took pictures of my tire tread to show me how bad of shape they were in (even though they don’t do tires) I had no idea and got them replaced immediately. I highly recommend them and will definitely be returning next time I need work done on my car.
We will never take our cars anywhere else! We drove back here from Raleigh to have the car maintenanced! They are honest and fair! Totally trustworthy.
This is the best auto shop I’ve ever been to. Their honest, detailed in their explanations, listen to your concerns, and their prices are unbelievable. They personally they worked with me to help me get my car fixed at my budget. Will never go to another shop, and I will forever send my family and friends here.
Honest, trustworthy, friendly... just some words to describe the people at this business. They took care of my car in a timely manner, they didnt try to oversell me on anything, and they do good work. Thank you to the Torres and company. You are much appreciated...
They are the best. Tell you exactly what you need know.Do EXCELLENT work. Will not go anywhere else.
If you want an honest, hard working, talented crew working on your vehicle, then this is the place to be.
Torres was recommended to me by the entire Maintenance staff at my apartment complex and glad I listened. Theyve worked on my Ram 1500 and Honda Civic and tell me exactly what the issues are. When I was doing an oil change for my Ram at the Dealer; gave me the inspection report of items I needed done including a transmission leak. Took vehicle to Torres they resolved the issues and informed me that there was no leak to be fix so no work required or performed. Price was reasonable and timely repair. During my next oil change for my truck another courtesy inspection and they said everything was fine. Guessing there wasnt truly a need to fix a leak since this time they didnt find any leaks.
Amazing service. Fast and reasonably priced. Receptionist was absolutely a sweetheart. Thanks to all the mechanics. Def. 5 stars and will return with any work from now on. Keep on keeping on yall.
Short story, avoid! Torres installed my clutch incorrectly, wouldnt return phone calls, and refused to reimburse me for the replacement parts.In May 2018 I had Torres install a new clutch in my Nissan 370Z. I dont drive the car very much and put 800 miles on it since May 2019, when the clutch started to make whirring and creaking noises. I dont drive the car hard at all and babied it for the first 500 mile break in period. So I took the car back to them and they referred me to a local transmission shop to take the clutch back out and see what the problem was. The attached pictures are of the pressure plate, clutch disk, and flywheel which were all scored on one side because the clutch was rubbing even when the pedal was pushed in.I contacted the owner of the company I bought the clutch from and sent him back the parts because they were still under warranty. He told me the clutch disk was installed backwards by Torres which caused it to rub the pressure plate and flywheel unevenly and heat up to the point that it damaged both. He replaced the clutch disk for free, was able to machine the flywheel for $50, and had me purchase a new pressure plate for $250.After that I contacted Torres to tell them what the owner said, and they told me the clutch disk only goes in one way (not true) and that it was caused by a machining error at the factory. Then they completely dodged my calls and didnt respond to any emails with the attached pictures I have here.The owner of the clutch company only works on 370Zs and only makes parts for this car. He has over 30 years of experience working with them. So do I believe the owner, who answered every email and call within a half hour and was completely helpful through the entire process? Or do I believe Torres who acted completely shady, wouldnt return calls or emails, and refused to pay for just the $300 I asked for to compensate me for the parts and not even the labor?Now Im stuck with just eating the costs of the initial installation, clutch, new clutch, and new installation. I will absolutely never take my car here again, and make sure no one I know in South Carolina, let alone Charleston, to ever use Torres.Response to Torres:Every time I called it was multiple times and you never once answered an email I sent. So there was no official correspondence between us.I am aware of the start year of my model car. Before that came the 350Z. The owner of the clutch company has been working on the Z line of cars back since they were Datsun. If he didnt stand by his parts he would have made me purchase an entire new kit. Instead he gave me the clutch disk for free and had the flywheel fixed from your damage in one business day. Further, you have no idea how much I spent on that clutch. It was more expensive than an OEM clutch from Nissan. I did my research, nearly every Z owner looking to increase performance for their car uses this company. They also make more than clutch parts which you should have seen if you actually tried to contact the owner like you said. Strange how he answered me immediately for everything but never replied to you. He included pictures he took when he received the parts showing more detailed damage and explaining exactly how it happened as well. Where with you, youre just trying to write it off like a bought a cheap kit from someones garage.And really? The unbiased opinion from the shop YOU referred me to? After they were aware of everything that happened with the clutch? Of course theyre going to back you. If I just wanted money to extort from you I would have demanded that you pay for the initial clutch, your install, the replacement parts, and the reinstall. I never wanted that though. I just wanted the $300 and would move on with it. Clearly you dont stand by your work by your immature post saying I destroyed my clutch, found the cheapest replacement, etc.This is the last you will be hearing from me until a complaint is filed with the BBB.
Helped us get back on the road at the last second and he was so friendly! If we ever have anymore problems when we visit Charleston we will always come back to here!
I love Torres! They are fast, friendly, and knowledgeable. I can usually get an appointment the day I call or the next day. They give excellent recommendations for places to fix anything they dont work on. I wouldnt want to take my car anywhere else!
Awesome mechanic and always very good about explaining exactly what they are doing and why. Best shop in Charleston!
Torres has been taking care of my babies for years now. Every visit is better than the last. They have never tried to sell me on things that are not needed. Front desk is excellent and the Doctor really cares for his patients. Best around, you wont find better.
Great service. Very reasonable prices.
Great service. Good price
Best experience ever, each time I visit. I recommend them to everyone. Honest and kind. Very cost efficient.
Excellent service friendly people the place to go if you want it done right the first time!!!!Its worth the time and the money!!!👍👍👍👍
I really liked this shop. I was impressed while I was waiting how the technicians came in the office to let Ms. Torres(she runs the office) know they completed a car and are starting on the next. The technicians here were very focused on what they were doing and Ms. Torres is very knowledgeable about cars extremely nice to all her customers. A church sister reccomended this shop and I am glad she did.
The only place I go now, glad I found them. No BS, I trust them. Thats rare these days.
Simple power steering pump replacement, with some other minor services I wanted done. Young guy installed it, and there is a warning on the pump about flushing the system and vacuuming the air from the system or it will cause failure of the pump and void the warranty. I watched the young man close the hood and asked him if he performed the air bleed. He insisted that all the air came out with the line to the pump, and therefore would be OK. I was skeptical, but alright..... It was not. When the air in the system caused pump cavitation and failed the day afterwards (blowing out the front seal of the pump and spraying fluid everywhere), I returned and spoke with the senior mechanic, who said it was a product failure, not their fault. I have a loud voice, I admit, but was not shouting as I do not treat people like this. My wife was in the car as they looked on. However, the lady came out of her office adjacent to the shop and said I was shouting. Being told that I was shouting when I was not was just icing on the cake, so when I informed her I was not shouting and are they going to hold up the quality of their work, she refused saying it was a product defect. So I went to a real professional shop, who actually had the vacuum tool to perform this warranty-voiding function. They knew exactly what I was talking about, as the pump comes with a QR code to watch a video on the importance of the vacuum bleed. This was never done at the previous shop and they immediately diagnosed that. So I will never use them again, and if you have sensitive work requiring proper installations in order to protect your warranty, or your car safety, then I would not use this place at all. The insult of the accusation of shouting at someone was especially uncalled for. My wife works retail, and I post videos of entitled Karens all the time. I do have a loud voice, but I was certainly not shouting. I totally expect that they will probably delete this, or have something to say to protect their rating (which is what cause me to go there anyways). I am not going to respond to such things.... I am just done.
I love finding honest people that do a phenomenal job! This is the only place I go for mechanical needs, even though I have to drive an hour to get to them, they are so worth it. Amazing and honest people! Thanks for always solving our car issues.
Very happy I was referred here. Tracy is the sweetest and the staff definitely are experts. I won’t go anywhere else and I highly recommend them.. they’re great!!!
The best auto repair shop in Charleston! Torres Auto Repair has helped my family and I more than I can express. They will give you an honest opinion, so you become a regular customer, instead of trying to make a quick buck by telling you that your vehicle needs unnecessary work done...unlike other mechanics Ive dealt with. Tracey and Jose are amazing people that have saved me from pouring money into an old failing vehicle that wouldnt be worth the repair costs. I appreciate their honesty and the way they treat me as a customer. I will be bringing all of my vehicles to Torres, and I suggest you do the same!
Torres is the most honest auto shop I have worked with (and Ive worked in multiple dealerships). They will get all my business. Dont waste your time at other places just come here!
Always great service. They never try to sell you something you dont need or want. Brake pad change and new wipers for significantly less than the dealership.
I cannot sing their praises enough. The owners go above and beyond regular service. 10 Star service. Thank you for taking such great care of all of my vehicles.
Amazing people and service
I absolutely love this place💖 after my first visit I dont go anywhere else..great work and excellent customer service.Tracy is AMAZING💞💞💞💞
Prompt and courteous service at competitive prices. Well done
Great work, reasonable prices, honest and reliable.
Thank You to Torres! You repaired a brake line on our Subaru yesterday quickly and for a reasonable price. You guys are awesome!!!
Highly recommend! My car wouldnt start so I had it towed to Torres. They quickly diagnosed the problem and had the car back to me within 3 hours at a very reasonable price.
Nice and helpful staff here that is trustworthy! They replaced my brakes, rotors, calipers and axels all on the same day as drop off. Very fair pricing for the work I needed. Thanks guys!
A place for good auto repair services.
Great customer service, also very matter of fact and friendly!
Great work and service. Always professional and diligent.
I needed a mechanic to check out used cars I was considering for purchase. Torres Auto was quick, friendly, and thorough, for a fair price. I highly recommend.
Hands-down the best shop Ive ever used. Fast and great quality work, and the whole crew here is extremely nice and knowledgeable.
Exceptional service, professional and kind. We are from out of state and had an issue with our SUV while traveling. They took care of us and got us back on the road in no time. Highly recommend!
Best shop ever!
Second time there. Fare prices and great work and quick. Could clean up the lobby. Old and dirty
The customer service and knowledge of what my vehicle needed was exceptional!
I had the most amazing experience ever getting my oil changed! There was no upselling and they were fast. No one presented me a dirty air filter with that one leaf stuck in it and claimed it came from my car.Everyone I dealt with were friendly, and welcoming! I will never go anywhere else as long as I live here!! Way to go Tracy, Jose, and the handsome young man that helped me park my car in a tight spot!
The crew at Torres continue to do an amazing job. Theyre prompt, courteous, and have always been a pleasure to work with when Ive had car trouble. Ive been to Torres on three separate occasions so far, and I have been impressed all three times. Ill continue to go to Torres and recommend them.Tracy rocks. The whole team is awesome.Thanks Team Torres!
Hit and miss! Lately I sent someone there and it was totally different. Try Alonzo (Mel)Gladden I know you know my face. My BMW x5 when yall left my window down causing mold to grow and the starter yall put in, that less than a week a new starting problem develops
My favorite place!! They always take good care of me and fix my vehicles in a timely and inexpensive manner. I never worry about going to them! I KNOW I’m in good hands and I’ll be driving away in a well working vehicle as quick as can be💜💜
Honest and reliable service!! Got my timing belt replaced and it was a great experience dealing with Tracy. No BS. No up sell. Fair price. You know that they are honest when I am ready to pay $$ for a coolant and PS fluid change and they tell me there is no need. I will be coming back for sure!!
Wonderful service! Very friendly, honest, and helpful. We were on vacation in Charleston and our car was giving us problems. They were the only shop around that made sure to get us in right away secondary to us leaving in 2 days. The staff was amazingly friendly and honest. Would highly recommend!
The people and service are outstanding! The walls have Handwritten thank you notes. Best advice from two friends to service my car at Torres! Thank you!
I had my car removed off this lot prior to any service. Their quote is ridiculous and the lack of professionalism with the lady(wife) of the owner was insufferable. From the time she walked up with a plate full of food to the nasty texts she sent as well as blowing my phone up. Im a nurse and sometimes im away from my phone. She is the most undesirable person Ive ever dealt with. Consumers please beware of this shop. I recommend you seek another mechanic.
Absolutely the best auto repair shop in Charleston. Very awesome people that do very awesome work.
These folks are great! They fix your car in no time, their prices are fair, and they dont take advantage of you on labor. I will never go anywhere else other than Torres Auto.They recently helped my son with a tire in my truck and will be working on his car when can get it to Charleston. Outstanding service, great attitude & they care about their customers.You can find that kind of service in this commercialized society anymore.
I think this is the best auto repair in town! Tracy is always amazingly helpful and sweet. They work quickly and do a fantastic job. Ive never felt taken advantage of or pressured to do something that wasnt really needed to any of our vehicles.Bottom line: They are trustworthy, affordable, get the job done
Unbelievable customer service with good workmanship. Always a good job on auto repairs. Wait time is a lil at times but if you see the good work they do, you can see why everyone comes to this West Ashley secret. Would recommend them to anyone.
Torres Auto is hands down the best, fastest,and most pleasant auto shop I have ever been to. They have a repeat customer in me. On top of that their prices are fantastic and more than fair. Highly recommend you give them a try.
Best place to bring your car! They give you honest answers and stick to the price. They have done a lot of work on our cars and it was always turned of great. Iv called Tracy just a ask a couple questions and she never hesitates to answer. There’s no other place to go
They are Awesome!! Wouldnt trust our cars with anyone else! We would recommend them to everyone!
They are truly honest people, do great work, and only charge you for work done on your car. God loving people. Ty.
I am so happy I found these guys. Phenomenal service and fair pricing. I will definitely have all of my car services done here in the future as well.
Theyll let you know what needs done now and what can wait, which is really helpful when youre on a budget. Great prices and even better service. Cant recommend them highly enough.
The BEST place to go and get your car repaired or for a simple oil change. They are great people and will do anything to help you out in any way they can. They take you into the shop and show you what is wrong rather than just telling you what needs to be fixed. They are awesome! I would definitely recommend Torres Auto Repair!
I was referred by another customer of his and I have had nothing but super service for my automobile. He takes care of me like family in fact the entire crew treats me like one of their own. The level of customer service is superb. Ive dealt with mechanics and oil corporations most of my adult life and this place tops them all. This is a fantastic place to bring your vehicle!
Very professional wouldnt take my car anywhere else, hands down a true Class Act
Great place to get your car serviced. Amazing and friendly staff that works hard and efficiently to get you on your way.
Fantastic customer service. I highly recomend them. Great work @ a very good price.
Appreciate y’all going the extra mile to get our element running again.
Excellent work. Caring for safety. Honest family business. Will take RV and cars to them.
Wonderful mechanic and very friendly.
Very honest shope professional I have worked with the shope for over 5 years just recently took my moms car there they did a wonderful job on getting her back on the road
Dont ask them if they stand behind their diagnoses. Apparently that is offensive and they will ask you to take your vehicle and leave. I know your first thought is to assume I was rude and something else must have happened to be refused service. No. The first time in my life I have been refused service. As a former business owner of a service related business I would never treat anyone without respect. I was questioned many times about my commitment to customer satisfaction and welcomed the opportunity to tell people how they could expect a different level of service than they may have experienced in the past.I was recommended to this facility by customers who had great service. I will never know.Dont ask questions and you may get to experience great service as well.FYI - I(the customer) called back to apologize for the miscommunication. I was told thank you then politely scolded for questioning their diagnoses. Without a doubt one of the most confusing customer service experiences I have ever had.
Beyond amazing!We take all of our vehicles here! They know what there doing and there prices beat everyone else! Insanely nice people! Weve never had an issue with them! They are without a doubt the best in Charleston!
Seriously, look no further. These people are the best. From the receptionist to the techs, absolutely outstanding. Super friendly, helpful, and personable.Now my story, if you care to read....I was brand new in town, I had just moved here. All of my belongings packed in a budget moving truck and my car towed behind it. So here I am, ready to move into my new place. First things first, gotta get my car off the tow dolley. Theres just one problem, my car wont start. Im in a tough situation because I need to return the truck today to avoid a late fee. Im a bit called panicky to say the least. I call the place a few times before they opened, no answer, but thats to be expected from any business. I didnt leave a voicemail because its 2019 and nobody has time for that.I pull up around the corner with the truck and my car behind 10 minutes after they opened and am about to call again. Lo and behold, before I can hit redial on my phone, I get a call from them. Its the receptionist calling me back asking if I needed any help. I explain the situation to her and she was incredibly helpful. Put me on hold for a minute or two while she conferred with her team. They told me to pull up my truck, tow dolley and all. The guys from the service team help me push my car off the tow dolley and roll it into the service bay. They tell me not to worry, theyll take it from here. Im relieved to say the least.I go on about my busy day and return the tow dolley. Its been about an hour and a half and I get a prompt call from the receptionist saying the diagnoses is a broken starter and it should be an easy fix. I finish up unloading the truck and get another call saying my car is all fixed up and ready to go. I drop the truck back off at the budget office and get back to the repair shop. My car is back in action and Im back on the road in a jif.Hats off to the whole shop for going the extra mile and helping me get my car off the tow dolley and into the shop for a quick repair!So long as Im stationed in this area, youve got a customer whenever Ive got some car trouble.
Great, knowledgeable staff. Best prices and straight forward timely repairs. No BS, no ancillary selling.
The most friendliest and honest people . Great reliable service.
Best mechanic in Charleston! Reasonable prices and super friendly customer service.
Ive been a delivery driver for over a decade, so Ive been to a lot of shady mechanics and been raped over the coals on some repairs. Needless to say, Im always wary about mechanics. Torres Auto Repair came highly recommended by a lifelong Charlestonian, so I figured Id get a diagnostic on the broken A/C of my 2008 Honda Civic. The woman working the phones and running the office was extremely nice and very knowledgeable. She broke down the process of what they were going to do to identify the issue, how long it would take, and the price range Id be looking at for the labor. It was a very pleasant experience and I would recommend Torres Auto Repair to anyone looking for an honest mechanic shop.
I called in with a problem that no one seemed to be able to give me a straight answer or valuable advice on. Tracy answered the phone and answered everyone of my questions without hesitation and great detail about what the problem was along with advice about how to fix the problem. I wasnt even a paying customer!!! She referred me to someone who could help me just to save me money. These are genuine and intelligent people working and will have my business in the future. Tracy youre an angel!!!
Always friendly, efficient & completely transparent. The most honest auto mechanic shop around.
Wonderful to do business with. They aim to please and do! They want repeat business. The greatest. 🙌💕
When I lived in South Carolina, this was the only place I took my car. They are honest and he knows what hes doing. They always did right by me and made sure I was satisfied.
They are HONEST which is rare. They are also efficient, clean and reasonable/fair in price.
Simply the best ! I was told at the dealer that I needed a 350 dollar tire sensor replacement. I went there and the quoted me a better price. After they inspected my car they found that my spare was low on air and reset the tire pressure light. Cost = $0.00Needless to say they have my business. They replaced a few light bulbs and I bought some new wipers.Thank you
Another shop wanted $100.00 to start before they would even diagnose my AC trouble. The folks at Torres found a simple problem and, 30minutes later, sent me on my way blowing cold air. Cost: $0.00. Stop in and talk to Tracy. Youll be in good hands.
Great place! They installed a new radiator in my Volvo. They stuck to their quoted price. Will be back again soon!
It was a zero B.S. experience!! My truck was not running, they diagnosed the problem very quickly, repaired it (failed fuel pump) and had me back on the road the next day. Would very happily recommend Torres Auto Repair. Small family owned operation. My kind of place. Joseph Tedesco, Charlesston SC
This place was fantastic! Great prices and they were really fast! Dear friends recommended them and Im so relieved.
These people are so gracious and accommodating they helped me out a lot with my daughters old rusted hoppty
I moved to Charleston four years ago. Torres Auto repair was recommended to me by a friend and they have been amazing! Fair and honest service, nice people, and quality work!!!!
They really try to help you out with cost and does good work also.
Excellent customer service and honest pricing. I had my engine replaced and wouldnt have gone anywhere else. They stand behind their work!
The best took it there one time and only go to them honest and fast they the only ones I go to I got more work for you guys
Great, honest, and friendly auto repair. Highly recommended
The nicest auto repair shop have ever stepped foot in. Definitely deserves every 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I stumbled into this establishment by default and I must say the customer service was excellent. Not only did he diagnose the problem but gave me plenty of options based upon my finances. After the service was done before the time issued I was called and was offered a pick up if I needed one since I was on vacation. Needless to say before I got back on the road I returned to get other needed repair. The thing I really like was I was called a week later to make sure things was ok.
Efficient & Friendly: I have gone here several times and am always impressed by their professionalism and expertise. All parts are OEM, and they work hard to get your car fixed ASAP. Highly recommend!
Honest trustworthy people who treat you fair.
Very simply stated: The Torres are very talented individuals who have chosen to service automobiles
The best shop around! honest reliable and great people!!
Quick service, details and quotes direct .Love this shop.
Torres cares about their clients! They provide a quality service and are the most honest repair shop I’ve ever dealt with.
