My car started leaking oil, and I was referred to these guys from my company. They were polite, and helpful. I'll be using them again in the near future.

Like most people who drive older model vehicles, I need a reliable person to perform the work arises. Tanner and company have been doing that work on both my vehicles for several years. I would not consider taking my cars anywhere else. Tanner and company are always friendly, do the work in a timely manner, and charge a fair price. I recommend them without reservation.

I wouldn't take our families vehicles anywhere else! They are prompt, friendly, knowledgeable and affordable. If you have ever been taken advantage of by a mechanic then you understand that when you find a good one you don't let them go! I am a barber and get ask about who's a reliable mechanic all the time and I always recommend that my clients go see Tanner!Services: Tires

I would never recommend Buchanan and sons automotive to work on even so much as a tricycle! I Was quoted a price to have a remanufactured engine put in my Chevy Colorado roughly $1,350 for labor $0 tax deduction receipt date 05/12/20 engine plus install kit $5,134.64 within weeks I was having major issues including stalling and shutting down on the interstate due to wiring harness to alternator pigtail being damaged during installation of the new engine. Oil dipstick was also droken so the level could not be seen. My Truck overheated on a trip to Knoxville Tennessee. Once my truck cooled down I got back on the road and everything seemed fine until I got back to South Carolina and the truck overheated again this time resulting in a Blown head gasket causing antifreeze to run out the back of my engine block. Further investigation at clinkscale Chevrolet found that my thermostat had NOT been replaced with the parts supplied with the new engine. Clinkscale Chevrolet gave me an invoice that shows the thermostat that Buchanan and sons had installed an old failing mahle thermostat dated for 9/27/16. I also have receipts for a thermostat (motorad) and water pump (car quest) that was purchased at advance auto parts on 1/24/20 and replaced a 4 months before the engine work was done at Buchanan and sons. So they didn't even replace the thermostat with the one they took out of my truck. Powertrain Nation had to honor their warranty after I had the engine re-replaced at sunrise automotive. Powertrain Nation also had to supply me with a parts list to prove that all the new parts were not installed. Buchanan and sons also crushed my brand new catalytic converter pipe by 50% that I purchased and supplied them with no damages still in the bubble wrap. 1 month after the engine replacement it started getting warmer and that's when I realized the air conditioner did not work and Jerry charged me $301.52 to fix something they broke. When I tried to complain about being told to bring it back and they would fix it, I thought they were going to fix what they had broke for free, they would not listen and basically told me I had to pay or I wouldn't get my truck back and made threats calling me a whiny baby!!! I have text messages from Jerry and Tanner Buchanan to prove how he treated me. I also have all the information from the Chevy dealership in Belton South Carolina to prove he did not install all of my parts that were supplied with my remanufactured engine. I have all the proof I need Jerry Buchanan!!! Jerry threatened to sue me if I posted a review! Well Jerry Buchanan here's your chance.. so sue me!!! And I'll counter sue... Facts are hard to dismiss. Tell your high school buddy Jimmy I said thanks for the referral! So you're aware, that last part was sarcastic!! I just added a few numbers in here so people would get the point of how much I lost thanks to your business..After engine replacement & breaking down Tow truck home $65Wiring harness pigtail $32.49Dipstick replacement & part number 12580811 $57.78New catalytic converter crushed during installation $199.85A/C repair $301.52The engine Jerry Buchanan and sons installed $3,736.007 year promise warranty $200.00Pure care$299.00Engine kit: new belts, upper and lower radiator hoses, gates water pump, gates thermostat etc... $319.00SC business $150.00SC tax $270.64Z01 DCTY CHEV 3.5 04-05 $3,736.00Considering I had to use my warranty I can never have my engine replaced without paying full price... Luckily sunrise automotive knew what they were doing.. no problems with my truck now!!! You can do the above calculations and see what I would counter for!!! Nothing you can do will ever make me remove this review. I also have pictures along with all documentsTanner is a spoiled BRAT!

I took my 2500 ram to Buchanan and Sons. I had an oil leak. He replaced my timing cover gasket 4 times and it was still leaking. Each time I took it back he said it was a faulty gasket and/or residule. He now tells me its something else and he wants more money. I left with my truck and took it to another diesel mechanic who then was able to fix the timing gasket and seal in two days. So, I paid $906 for nothing and didnt have my truck for over a month through the process. I wish I would have read reviews before taking it there.

Cannot recommend Buchanan and Sons enough. Tanner and the rest of the crew are very knowledgeable, professional, and all work has been done in a timely manner. Look no further, 11/10 would recommend.

WOW - Buchanan & Sons is amazing! I can't thank Tanner enough! My mom, daughter, and I were in Greenville from out of town (about 4 hours from home), and my car started giving me trouble.We went to O'Reilly Auto Parts to see if they could help us figure out the problem. One of the guys at O'Reilly said it was having a cooling problem & we needed to take it to a mechanic. I asked who he recommended, and he said to contact Buchanan & Sons and to ask for Tanner - he assured us that Tanner would take good care of us. He was exactly right!We called Buchanan & Sons as soon as they opened in the morning & Tanner said to bring it by and he would help us out. We dropped it off & he called us a little bit later to tell us what the problem was. I needed a new radiator.My car is an older car, so it took them a bit to hunt one down, but Tanner said he would find us one & get it installed that same day! We were in a bind because we are from out of town & had to pick up our son from camp at Clemson. Tanner worked well over business hours to get my car fixed.We were stuck at the hotel without a car - Tanner went above and beyond and brought my car back to the hotel for us! Talk about 5-star service!!! We felt like we had been customers of his for years, yet we just met him.I cannot thank Tanner enough for taking such good care of us! I would not hesitate to recommend him to everyone I know! If you want to take your car to an honest, trustworthy, caring, knowledgeable, upstanding place, Tanner at Buchanan & Sons is THE place to take your car!

I called around to multiple shops in the area and these guys were the only ones who were willing and capable of replacing my leaf springs on my truck. I couldn’t be happier with my choice! Very communicative and timely with the service. Extremely fair with the price and upfront about the estimate. Trustworthy work done. I don’t know what else you could want or expect. I would recommend this service shop to anyone and everyone.
