I love Southern Automotive. They're honest and kind and take good care of their customers. I've had them work on my Sebring several times and recommend them to anyone looking for a great mechanic with reasonable prices. A few years ago I needed some work done. I did not have the money to blow, so I called another facility that came highly recommended. That company wanted to charge me $2500 - Southern automotive did the work for $800.They always have my car ready when they say they will. They're a complete pleasure to work with.

I'm giving 3 stars because they were all very nice people as far as I remember and as far as I know they did their job ok but every time that I've gone to them for anything from an oil change (because I don't want to mess it up by doing it myself) to my dive shaft or whatever it was that broke and was messed up on a previous car, I've been overcharged and taken advantage of. The previous car id taken to them had sort of broken down after I'd run over a curb and I went in to get my alignment fixed and some new tires because it was no longer driving straight and had the spare tire on, they tried to tell me that I needed to get my rack and pinion replaced, but then when I'd next talked to them they'd changed their mind saying that it needed a new fuel pump or other part. Which to me is kind of suspicious but what do I know, I'm just some woman trying to get my alignment or oil change done, the most recent time I'd gone, I'd taken it to get my oil change done and then all they'd asked me was if I'd wanted my air filter changed, wiper fluid refilled and to do a rotation + check if my breaks needed anything, they never asked if I wanted them to do any other diagnostics on my car but they still did and then charged me way too much for said diagnostics. And then when they'd finished with all of that, they tried to tell me I needed all new motor mounts because the exhaust was out of place and had torn and stretched them which according to them would cost $1,800 to replace, so I declined to have that work done as I like most people am not rich and don't have all the money in the world to be worrying about that at this moment in time, but when I finally got an appointment with the very high rated and trusted company I'd purchased the vehicle from, they said that there's nothing wrong with the motor mounts, only the exhaust being out of its holder thing which is apparently an easy fix, which again makes me question what their motives were at Sourhern Blvd Auto. Like I've said before they're very nice people especially the wonderful woman, I believe her name was Kathleen, but I'm not sure I'll be returning to them any longer due to they're overpricing of everything, and I no longer trust their judgment.

This place is absolutely the worst place I have ever delt with.In the first place they took a long time to even look at my truck,Then gave me an estimate which included a part that cost $399.00- well the total bill was $960.00 and they could not figure out what was wrong with my vehicle so when I finally was able to pick up my truck they had it so long and spent so many hours on it that they altered the bill and it didnt have that expensive part on there anymore and most of the money I was charged was labor and then they lied to me about "why" the bill was different.Also two days later after I picked up my truck it over heated and when I opened the hood the radiator cap was off and I hadnt opened that hood in over a month.Long story short my truck was ruined and I had to buy another truck.DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR OR TRUCK TO THIS SECOND RATE SHOP!!!!!

Went to this place for a brake issue as was recommended by a friend and wanted a new shop closer to home. I knew I had some sort of rotor warping due to steering wheel wobbling and thought I was probably due for brake pads. Also had my brake pedal drop while going over a speed bump. Went to Southern Blvd Auto and they quoted $3,700 for an Anti-lock brake unit, a new master cylinder, and brake lines all of which I did not need. Went to another place that bled the lines to fix the pedal issue and turned my front rotors and replaced my brake pads all for less than $500. I had to pay Southern Blvd $200 for the faulty diagnostic work to pick up my car. Will never return and would not recommend them to anyone! This place did not deserve the one star rating.

Oh my goodness, this business has true quality service and most importantly honesty. I've taken my car plus a previous car several times to Southern Boulevard Automotive. They are honest. Can you imagine honest! They have a fair price and excellent service. When I take my car there, I never question if anything is going to go wrong because it doesn't. Christian-based, honest, there is never a question if I got a great price. Your car will be fixed, right, the first time. Staff is also great. I would not trust any of my vehicles with any other. They always stand behind their work. You can't go wrong. ( I am a real customer, not a friend or relative of anyone there ).

We highly recommend Southern Boulevard Automotive and are lucky to have found them. While visiting family in Albuquerque our vehicle had an oil leak. Unfortunately with it being a holiday week, there were no places in the area that could assist with the repair. Southern Blvd Automotive was able to work us into their schedule on a short notice. They provided excellent customer service and their repair of our vehicle will help us make the travel back home safely. Highly recommend this business.

Took van in to have a minor service performed. I asked for a price. They called back and said it was more complicated than first quoted. When I was done, the price was doubled.The work was performed ok.

I took my car in after accident, There was several on board fault errors. My insurance company decided due to what Southern was claiming the car may be totaled and I needed have it diagnosed by a preferred company. Sent the car to dealership, they patched a wire, which southern claimed was totally damaged and unrepairable. The wire patch to sensor fixed all the codes, and the dealership charged $400. Southern intentionally lied about needing a new muffler, steering angle sensor, and several other issues. Southern quoted me $3500 when the dealership fixed the issue for $400. I have paper work from both places. This company is corrupt and will intentionally try to rip you off. I was a repeat customer, not anymore.
