Sorry to have to report that my experience could have been disastrous... picture shows blue spark wire that had rubbed raw and stole power from engine. This being discovered after the Car was released, after test driving by the owner after installing a Power Steering pump. Engine issue was immediately apparent before I reached the main road so draw your own conclusions about if it happened in the four mile (odometer --693 to --697) test drive... Further, alternator had to be removed for repair so as picture shows had to be seen... further, bolt to affix alternator to bracket was installed from back of alternator opposite of correct way... further, power steering pump whined the whole nerve wracking 57 mile trip back... paid cash, tipped mechanic & gave owner a jar of Buffalo Chicken Wing sauce from Anchor Bar, Home of Buffalo Chicken Wings... On the positive side, friendly enough & communicated Ok except for the headsup on engine power loss... UPDATE 030619: fixed engine power issue by replacing TFI ignition control module, along with complete tuneup & timing. Wire, though rubbed raw, was not...
   Read moreSo being a local I can say this is the best auto repair shop I've been to,I've done business with them over 3 years and when petty younger kids trys to spit a bad name on this shop I won't stand for it, I'm aware there are some complications in the auto industry now days due to tarrifs and when your dealing with auto parts from Knoxville or wherever they get shipped they have to be returned because sometimes they are effective and Bowlins Auto stands by their word and makes it right. I will not support negative comments from kids that lie especially if I was there and know the backstory.

While traveling from Illinois to Georgia, my wife, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law found themselves in an unfamiliar area with a brake issue â a bolt had come out of the brake caliper. After calling around, they landed on Bowlinâs Auto Repair, and Iâm so glad they did.
From start to finish, the staff treated them with kindness, professionalism, and urgency. They didnât take advantage of the situation or charge an outrageous amount. Not only did they replace the missing bolt, but they also discovered another loose bolt on the driverâs side and fixed that too.
Thanks to Bowlinâs, they were able to get safely back on the road and finish their trip without further problems. Itâs rare to find a repair shop that combines honesty, skill, and genuine care for their customers â but Bowlinâs Auto Repair delivered on all fronts. Highly...
