Southern Stables always does great work on my vehicle. They have mechanics who are knowledgeable about my particular vehicle. Trustworthy and reliable and their workspace is very clean and neat all the time. Brad is terrific to deal with. I would wholeheartedly recommend them for all your automotive needs

Our family has been working with So. Stables about 3 years now. Brad is honest and upfront about repairs, costs, timelines. Very upstanding man and group of technicians. Very please with them and the work they perform for us. Large or small. Aces!!

Gave one star because I can't give none.I will never do business with this place again.Took my truck in for a diagnostic. Was told that it was normally one hour labor and if it needed more they would call and confirm the extra. I was told they would call when the truck was ready. Never got a call, went there after 4 days to ask what was going on and was told that they had run more than two hours of diagnostics and had no definitive results. Could be several things making the truck act the way it is acting was the just of what I was told. Was told that he had started itemizing the needed repairs and quit at $5,000.00. How can you determine repairs if you can't tell what is wrong? I was told that they would call when they had compiled the bill and I could pick up my truck. Four days later I called them, because I had heard nothing, and was told that the bill would be more than $260.00. This much money for no answers as to the problem.This is one shoddy outfit and I would never trust my vehicle to them again. I may just as well have put $260.00 in the trash as compared to what I got for my money. All in all, my truck still doesn't run right And I'm out a large sum of money.

I wouldn't take my vehicle anywhere else. Brad and his crew are honest, trustworthy, and are the best around.

Southern Stables can handle it all from simple oil changes to more complex diagnostics and troubleshooting. They perform a full range of maintenance and performance repairs.

Had an issue that had been covered up by past mechanics and sales people on a Rav4 I've had for about a year. Brad's diagnostics found the issue, and he had it back on the road in about a week. Took $900 to have it driving like new when I thought I was gonna need another car here a few months.

I m very pleased with Southern Stables. I have full faith in the care and maintenance of all my vehicles. Brad is always sure to talk through any problems they find so I can fully understand what is going on. They are sure to make me feel comfortable and confident that my vehicles are in top shape.

Called about an alignment for my wife s tesla. Was told they don t work on Teslas anymore. When I asked about why, I was told that the owner just chooses not to. As a car guy I find this very weird that a shop would just turn down work for no reason. But then again, people hate EVs for no reason so I assume the owner is one of those people.

I have three very different vehicles that I take to southern stables automotive. They have always done a wonderful job communicating the needs and issues with each one. I appreciate the information along with the upfront price quotes that help me make the most informed decision. All of the work has been completed without issue. I ve never had a repeat issue or any concerns with the quality of repairs. I have been going here for about 3 years now and southern stables has always gone above and beyond!Highly recommended! Fast! Clean! Affordable!

Brad and his team did an excellent job getting my 97 F150 running well again. He was knowledgeable and informative on what problems needed to be addressed. Brad was patient to answer all of my questions. He was never pushy about what services that needed to be done; suggested what it needed now and what might be needed in future. I would be happy to take any of my vehicles back to them, whenever they need servicing. Thanks again

Brad, is a class act! If anyone out there is looking to tune your hotrod he's the guy. Beautiful shop and very clean! Everyone is very nice, and I was super happy with my tune of my 21' mustang GT. I had already purchased a tune from a well known company, and wasn't satisfied with the results, Brad corrected that. Thanks a million!

Well, Brad the "mechanic" apparently doesn't need return customers. I made an appointment with ss to have my vehicle inspection done and told them I had a check engine light on, in addition I have a ignition interlock device ( blow and go) I dropped off my car on Thursday morning, spoke with the receptionist and told her to call me if any questions/problems. Come Friday 5:00 I call and find out Brad doesn't want to work on this car... nobody called me and when I called I was told that they would not be working on my vehicle??? Two days later!!! Unless you have a new vehicle, mine is a 2011, don't waste your time...

Everyone at Southern Stables goes above and beyond to get the job done. They have always been very friendly, honest, and upfront about our vehicles' maintenance and repair needs. Brad always calls to explain exactly what is going on. They have NEVER tried to pressure us into something unnecessary. In fact, many times they have gone out of their way to find the most cost effective solution including going to bat with manufacturers and warranty companies to get costs or repairs covered. I highly recommend them!

We looked for a local shop, and several people recommended Southern Stables. We were able to get a number of problems fixed (exhaust, tune up, heat/ac issues), and get our vehicle back the same day. Brad was very informative, explained in detail everything they needed to do, without trying to sell me on any extra services, kept the price reasonable, and answered all my questions promptly. We will be back, and will recommend Southern Stables to friends and family.Services: Exhaust, Electrical, Auto engine tuning, Air conditioning

It has taken me an entire month to leave this review because I've been completely speechless. I know that many times we find ourselves in a situation where we don't know who to trust with our vehicles. I can relate. I can truly say that Brad is absolutely awesome and you can walk away from your vehicle knowing that it's in the hands of someone who's gonna be honest with you. I don't do reviews but I had to jump on here and give this man the recognition that he deserves. Thank you Brad. ....Lakeisha

I wish that I could give more than 5 stars. This is by far the best automotive/ performance shop I have ever set foot in. These guys really care and are true car guys. Brad and Chris worked on my Shelby GT500 and I came to them with quite the lengthy list of things I wanted done anywhere from general maintenance to custom fabrication and performance upgrades. These guys are so precise with their work and take a lot of pride in what they do. I have never been treated so well at a shop before. They accommodated every one of my requests and with the best customer service they make you feel right at home immediately and are very customer oriented. I could ramble on and on about my positive experience but to make a long story short. Do not hesitate to leave your daily driver or your pride and joy in these guys hands. I truly cannot say enough nice things about my experience and I definitely will return.

From the moment we called looking for help and repairs for our car, the staff at Southern Stables were friendly and professional. Our car was fixed and returned to us in better condition than when we brought it in!! They communicated with us and updated us throughout the entire process, and everything was repaired quickly. We will be return customers for any of our automotive needs. Outstanding service, thank you!

I brought my vehicle in with my own diagnostic. They didn t try to up charge me and do further diagnostics. They did what I asked. They found a few additional unrelated things. They took the time to explain and provided me with the most cost effective way forward.When they road tested their fixes they found an additional unrelated problem, they were honest and said I could replace the part cheaper and with no problem myself. They could ve charged me or convinced me I couldn t do this simple fix myself, but they were honest and saved me money.They have completely earned my trust and will have my exclusive business going forward. Totally impressed and grateful!

I've found a garage I can trust to be honest with me about what my car needs. When I found myself on my own and vulnerable when it came to maintaining my car, I went to Southern Stables. I've never been sorry, as Brad and his crew have always been courteous and professional. Prices have been reasonable as well.

One of the most professional auto service shops I ve dealt with. Brad is very professional, straight talking, and thorough. I called with brake issues and they took me the very next day and had it done in a few hours. I would recommend Southern Stables to anyone looking for automotive repair services.

Always a lovely experience at Southern Stables! I would highly recommend for a vehicle that you truly care about. Always quality work and I've never felt over looked or rushed as a customer. Simply outstanding.On a more recent note: I had taken my Ford Ranger into a dealer for the Takata air bag recall, and they said my leaf springs and shackles were so bad that they wouldn t recommend driving it and it would cost around a $1000 to fix! I called Brad and he took a look at it (without and appointment) and told me we could schedule to have it fixed and it was alright to drive until then. Not only that, the price was considerably less and they fixed my tailgate as well.Really awesome people and the quality of work is unmatched. Would recommend always!

I have been in the sales arena of used vehicle automobile sales for over 30 years. I have been in charge of large operations selling over 200 vehicles per month. This has placed me around hundreds of mechanics and technicians. I say that simply to say this. This is the finest shop, and experience I have ever had. I appreciated the owner Brad s professionalism, knowledge and the vehicle is working perfectly.

Brad and his team always do top-quality, thorough work. I can honestly say that I trust Southern Stables with every aspect of my car care. With other garages, you might have to worry whether a repair or service is really necessary. More often than not, Brad is telling me that something isn t needed yet. If you re looking for someone you can trust to take care of your vehicles for a long time, look no further.

I've been taking my car to Southern Stables for years now and I have yet to have a bad experience. Despite being busy, they always make time to get my car in and discuss my concerns in detail. Brad is extremely knowledgeable and is able to break down the technical bits to get to the meat of the issue in a way that is easily understood. He's even taken my calls and done troubleshooting when my car was acting up - you won't find that anywhere else.

Brad is the most honest mechanic I've ever had. I've taken my vehicle there thinking something was wrong and he has been honest and told me that there was not. Other mechanics I've had in the past have taken advantage. His and his employees work has always been exemplary and his shop is impeccable. I will take my car no place else!
