We had side steps put on a Jeep. Billy and his crew were quick and efficient. The price was fair. We will definitely do business with them again!
Billy and his crew handled their business!! Got a new motor put in my truck, he takes you step by step along in the process and gets you the top of the line parts on whatever you need. He treats your vehicle as if it's his. Price is fair and worth every penny. He earned a customer for life!!
The level of expertise and professionalism Billy displays is astonishing. In addition, he’s more than fair and honest about pricing. I have complete trust in his abilities and care of my vehicle. Next time I need work done, I know where I’ll be taking my car. Thank you!
Affordable Automotive was a lifesaver this weekend! I was traveling from AL to LA when my car started acting up. I was able to make it to his shop since google said they were open. They were actually closed, but Billy took the time to check out the issue and make the repair so that I was able to make it home that evening! Super grateful for his willingness to help me out even on his time off. Highly recommend!
Very good reputable automotive care. They are going to get you back on the road as quickly and as affordable as possible. And they are going to treat your vehicle like it was their own. I normally do most my own work. This time I didn’t have the time or resources to do that and had to use other. This gentleman always deals with where I work. And I knew about his business and I chose to give his shop a chance to earn my future business and my recommendations to others who need Affordable Automotive Care. This place is very appropriately named. If you do business with them you won’t regret it.
When my family and I were driving back from dolphin island, our car began overheating. The AC was cutting on/off, we were not sure if it was AC compressor, belt, pulleys or what.
When I explained the situation, Billy said he wanted to look at it first because it may just be something simple which was the case. AC was just cutting off due to high temp to prevent it from going higher.
It took a couple hours to trouble shoot and return a good quote for the job. After the job was quoted, he was able to get it repaired same day.
I’ve waited a while to write this review to see how the car was doing. It’s been a couple months and we have had no issues with the cooling system at all. The temp stays where it’s supposed and all systems working as intended.

EDIT: 01-01-2023, New Service:
Drove to Gulfport on 12/31 to take family and do some shopping. We only made it to first stop and noticed van would not shift out of 1st gear.
Drove back on 90 to Pascagoula at 30MPH, 2800RPM. Before I left Gulfport, I contacted Billy and he said shop was closed on weekend, but if I could drop it off, he would run a diagnostic to see what it looks like.
I dropped off van around 4PM yesterday and it was ready at 9am today. As with most shops, he wasn’t comfortable dropping pan and messing with fluid on a transmission neither of us have history on, as are most shops. At that point it was already not working right so any positive result would be better than what we had currently.
To be honest, neither of us know how it will act moving forward, but that is no reflection on his service. When researching this vehicle I knew they were notorious for transmission issues and we drove it a year without issues prior to this experience.
Vehicle runs and drives solid. If I didn’t know it had an issue yesterday, I wouldn’t even know today. I also wasn’t expecting it to be done so soon due to holiday weekend. He said he put a rush on it because he knew I have kiddos with appointments and this is the only vehicle we can rely on as I drive our other vehicle 5-7 days a week to Theodore and back.
I’ve been in the area for 5 years now and left a family of mechanics when doing so. I have been without a mechanic I could count on since then. I am 110% confident that if I need help, he will be there to support me.

EDIT (Dem2023):
Year later and transmission still working as it should. Needed help today to track down headlight short in minivan and replace water pump on 03 Tahoe.
As always, service was fast and friendly. Price for job was quoted ahead of time and ready when I was told it would be done.
I would rate this shop 0 stars if it would let me. I brought my 2010 Toyota Tacoma in for an oil change and that’s it. By the time they were finished with it i had an engine that was knocking and my transmission was slipping. They drained my transmission fluid thinking it was the oil drain plug. They stripped my oil drain plug and it was leaking terribly. They shorted the oil by 3 quarts and never put any transmission fluid in that they drained out. So needless to say. I had to buy a new vehicle. They refused to pay for the damages they did on my Tacoma. Something as simple as an oil change and you’re too incompetent to do that without destroying my truck. Do NOT trust these people with your vehicle. Do NOT make the same mistake I made.
One of the best shops around in my opinion. The owner is very friendly and handles his business well. Price is amazing and the work him and his crew do blows any other mechanic out of the water. Me and my family have been bringing our cars here for years now and we wont be going to any other shop.
