“Chapin Automotive is my go-to for everything from oil changes to auto repairs and new tires. I’ve used them multiple times and even sent family their way. They’ve always delivered reliable, trustworthy service at a fair price. The team is professional, honest, and easy to work with. Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality care and peace of mind right here in Chapin!”
“This business has charged charged and charged just to tell me they don’t work on old vehicles. We have spent more than 3500.00 with them in the last 36 mths and now their excuse for not being able to repair the vehicle is age related. They’ve repaired it in the past but now they don’t work on older vehicles There’s no signs anywhere to that effect. Beware if you have an older vehicle. They don’t repair.
************************* from 1 star to 5 stars

Josh has been very good about addressing the problems encountered with the service received While we won’t be returning for service because our vehicle is “over” 25 yrs of age. However there still is no sign to make anyone aware of this.
But I think that knowing Josh stands by his work is testament to his business. He does make things right.
My deepest gratitude to him!
**If you should look at the photos shared on this site for The Auto Shop of Chapin you will notice quite a few “old model” vehicles. That really caught my eye. I love old model vehicles!!!”
“Marvin has been my family’s mechanic since I was a child and he is amazing and most reliable. Good prices, very friendly and personable, he’s the best small mechanic in town. I would rate higher if I could!!!”
“Been taking all the family cars here for years. They have always been so courteous, friendly and fair with their pricing. They don't sell you stuff you dont need and they treat your vehicle as if it was their own. Ill continue to use them as long as I live in Chapin. Love you guys!”
“I brought truck in with a coolant leak and it was diagnosed and had the necessary replacement parts ordered same day. Micah is who I dealt with and he went above and beyond to try and get my situation handled quickly and as cost effectively as possible.”
“Hard to find an automotive shop you can trust, Brad and Matt and the guys are whom you are looking for. Reasonable prices for my issues, and in a next day situation. That is a rare thing. 5 stars or more if I could. Trust me, trust these guys.”

“I use Royson's for all my auto service & repairs. I've found them to be very helpful, reliable, knowlegable, & honest with all my automotive needs. I highly recommend these good folks.
Today, I had what I thought was a nail or something in a tire. Turned out to be simply changing air temps. Nothing in the tire & no charge for the check from Royson's!”
“Called early and explained the needed x services and had to pick up kids from school. Said bring it in and they'd work it in and did so with plenty of time to spare. I know that's not the norm but I really do appreciate the effort.”
“I had a tire blow out. I spent a couple hours trying to find a real person to answer my questions. I called Lake Murray Tire and the gentleman told me to come on over. I did. He looked at my tires, told me how many needed to be replaced. Made appointment for the next morning. New tires put on, rotated and some fuses worked on in about an hour. They were nice and respectful to an older woman with no tire experience.”
