If you have a choice, this is the place.
If you're looking for a locally owned, highly qualified, professional automotive repair place, Lake Murray Tire & Automotive is your answer. Ben, Andy and the team provide tires and automotive repair on a timely basis and at a reasonable price. I've been going to them for my automotive needs, repairs and tires for the last 3 years and have been completely satisfied with their work. They are fair, reasonable and have always put me, as a customer, first.
I am very appreciative of this business and the honesty of the people who run it. I came in to get new brakes for my Highlander, which I was told by the dealership I needed them. It was apparent to the owners of this business that it was not required at this time and I had many many more miles to go before that would be needed. Much to be said for any business that runs it with integrity.
I was greeted quickly and professionally. My car was taken to the back promptly, and I was told what the problem was. The problem was fixed in about an hour. The price was much less than I expected. I was pleased with the service I received.
Lake Murray Tire and Automotive truly saved my road trip. I was driving from Florida to Michigan when I ran into car trouble, and they went above and beyond to help me.
one of their team members gave me a ride to make sure I could still get where I needed to go safely while my car was inoperable. You don’t find service like that often anymore.
If you’re ever in the area and need trustworthy, kind, and knowledgeable people to work on your vehicle, Lake Murray Tire and Automotive is the place to go. They turned a stressful situation into a positive experience, and I’m truly grateful.
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.
I want to thank the team at lake murray tire and auto! For coming through with a quick tire mount and balance and having the proper size tire in stock. I had a call from a young lady stuck on the side of the interstate and they came through for me. Great job guys. 👍
I've taken my vehicle (Ford Explorer) to LMTA several times. Every time it's the same. Clear communication, decent pricing and good work and no BS. If you need a repair, I'd highly recommend. They've always done right by me.
They were very prompt in getting me in and getting My truck serviced as always the guys there are very nice and polite. They don’t have to be but they are. I appreciate that thank you.
Can’t say enough great things about this place. These guys were all great. Had me out in 20 minutes for a new tire. They even tried to see if they could patch and save me money. I appreciate the honesty and will never buy another tire from anywhere else. Thanks guys, you are awesome!
Always great. I was leaving to go out of town when I got a flat tire the night before. LMT&A by had me on the road by 9a next morning without over charging. Thank you
The team at Lake Murray Tire and Automotive did a great job as usual. They were able to accommodate my schedule and have an after hour drop capability. My family highly recommends them!
Horrendous establishment. Avoid at all costs.
6/13/2024 - took my truck in the get the AC fixed. $1,389 charge.
6/21/2024 - Truck AC still not working. Now has a grinding noise. “fixed AC again” and fixed a pneumatic tube that coincidentally is in the passenger side of engine bay where compressor is. $713 charge.
7/3/2024 - truck AC still not working. “Fixed again”. $603 charge.
7/10/2024 - AC still not working. Truck out of town. They paid another shop to put refrigerant in the system because it was undercharged. AC worked.
6/24/2025 - one year later AC stops working again. “Cheap Chinese Compressor exploded, metal shavings throughout system, all needs to be replaced”. When lake Murray tire was asked if they would cover the cost under warranty they said they would only cover half of the $2,500. They said they were trying to save me money by using a cheap Chinese compressor, now I’m out an additional $1,200.
In conclusion- if you want to deal with a shop that uses cheap parts that they won’t stand behind - use this place. $4,000 total and 5 shop visits later. I don’t understand how they are still in business in a small town.
I am somewhat new to the area and didn't have any auto service place i was familiar with. Needed shocks and struts installed. A friend recommended Lake Murray Tire and Auto. They quoted me a price via email. I scheduled the service and hoped for the best.
Well, I now have The Place for my auto service needs. They did the job and it was exactly what they quoted. No phone calls telling me I needed other parts or things that were a problem like you usually get from the chain stores. Honest, fair priced and quality work. What more needs to be said. Thank you guys. I will definitely be back for my future auto needs.
Great management and staff fast times .Great Prices best and reliable Oil Changes. Just had my 2003 Cadillac CTS Oil changed today and she is running great again.
Fast, reliable, and honest service that is well worth every visit. Shop local, repair local. The waiting room is a throwback to 80s/90s NASCAR that is fun to view and remember
Very reasonable and knowledgeable and no pressure. I had tires replaced from my Mercedes and my husband had tires replaced for his Ram truck. We just found our new shop.
The great guys at Lake Murray Tire went out of their way to help me. I thought I had called them about repairing a tire for me, but when I arrived I discovered I had called a different tire shop and they were completely booked for today. In true Chapin neighborly style they went out to my car saw the nail and got me back on the road. They truly went far beyond what they had to to help me out.We often hear,”Like a good neighbor”. Lake Murray Tire & Automotive is that good neighbor!
Absolutely amazing!
Was just at Lake Murray for the Easter weekend and had to get my tires replaced. Not only did I get in the same day on a busy weekend, my son also got a mini apprenticeship as a tire mechanic. Fair prices, super friendly people, outstanding service.
I have been doing business with these guys for 18 years, they have never steered me wrong. They fit me into their schedule when ever I need an oil change or new tires, shocks , batteries for boats and cars. My car is 23 years old and they keep her in tiptop shape. They will check everything before I go on a lengthy trip to put my mind at ease. Ben , Steve or Adam will be glad to be of assistance. Drop off or wait in their comfortable customer waiting area. They don’t over charge on their services, give them a call you won’t be disappointed.
When I got the flat tire, I reached them and they were very thorough and checked every single tires. First, I didn't recognized that the tire had tear but they checked the tire and said I needed a repair. I just requested them to replace it with repair tire and they did it perfectly for me. The price was very reasonable and I liked their service. Thank you!
Had all 4 tires replaced faster than fast. Super prompt service. Very friendly staff. Great prices (far lower than other places). Definitely found my new place to get tires. Highly recommend.
