Locate an Auto Repair Shop in Nashville, North Carolina

Hey Holly, I fall under the category of not the original owner I am actually still paying on my car. I bought this car in November 2008 it is a 2002 pontiac grand prix gt with a 3800 and I first started having problems with it in May of 2010. I went to start my car after work one night and my keys were locked up in the ignition and I had no power to my car at all. I called a friend to come see if he could help and he tightened the cable on the battery and it started up and ran just fine. I then was scheduled to go to school for the National Guard in mid June 2010 and my school was a month long and I stayed in the barracks there. I drove to and from class every day and about a week or so into the school I went to start my car and it locked up again and wouldn't start. I had a mechanic on post come and look at it and he couldn't pinpoint the problem but thought it had to do with my anti-theft system. While trying to determine the problem at one point the keys were not even in the ignition and the car started by itself! I couldn't move it out of park but it was running and they had to take the fuse out to get it to shut off. They put the fuse back in and it started a second time! They left it out a little longer this time and it didn't start back up. I was able to then take it to a mechanic who had several former pontiac mechanics working for him and when they tested the car they couldn't find anything wrong except that my abs needed replacing. After that, my car ran just fine until around mid september of 2010. I had gone to wal- mart with my mom about 20 minutes from us and gone grocery shopping then another 20 minutes back home and my mom asked me to run to town to pick something up for her throat and so I drove to rite aid about a 5 minute drive away, maybe 10 minutes. I had a friend with me and as I turned on the car to go back home I saw smoke coming from the hood. I turned off the car and popped the hood to see what was wrong and I saw flames coming from under the plastic cover as well as the front of my engine. My friend was able to put out the fire with his hat smacking down the flames and we had the car towed back to the house. My dad was able to fix the car but we had to go to different junk yards and get two of the parts off other cars and we had to replace the front 3 spark plugs and plug wires as well. It was the middle of march of 2011 when my car was back up and running again though I didn't drive it much. I moved to Nashville April 7th 2011 and my car would sometimes lock up again and would only start for me after I wiggled the front battery wire although the wire itself was on tight. Then on May 5th I had to go to wal- mart which was not even a 5 minute drive away and I was at a stop light behind a long line of cars and when we started moving I heard a pop and saw smoke under the hood so I pulled into the gas station right beside of a Firestone shop, grabbed a fire extinguisher from my back seat and popped the hood to put out the fire...I am very lucky the car didn't blow up and that nobody was hurt! The guys from the garage next door came running to help me but the fire was out by the time they got to me. I then called a tow truck to bring me and the car back home and the car now sits useless in my driveway...I dont know if anything can even be done to save my car at all but I honestly would like to take a sledgehammer to every inch of it than to trust my life with this car again...twice is enough for me!! Is there anything that can be done or anything at all?? I don't know if my story has helped any but at least mine is now added to the long list of those this has happened to! My best friend in high school had the same thing happen to hers too!">

Just bought a silver exl with Navigation = $34,205 plus pro pack for $529. Ended up going to Cincinnati Ohio instead of here in Nashville TN. Much better selection in SW Ohio and more willing to deal on price. Had to trade a 2010 Toyota Highlander Limited, got $32,500 for the trade in. Purchased from Kings Honda.

Greeting from Nashville, TN ... negotiated via phone last week with 3 local dealers ... Cut this deal for a 36mo 12k/yr lease on EX-L 2WD w/o nav: list price- $27,425 selling price- $25,566 MF- .00059 residual- $16,180.75 0 out of pocket mo payment (including tax)- $325.79 (35 payments, 1st mo paid by Honda)

The two that I sold them were marked up $3.5-4.5k each and prices dropped the longer they set on the lot. Neither of them needed any work before they were ready to sell. I was happy with the deal if Carmax was, and whoever purchased them got good cars but paid too much for them :-) If the car is a hot seller I can't see any reason that carmax would not make you a fair offer to get yours on to the lot. I think someone just made a mistake somewhere in the appraisal process of this one car. Since all the canters are tied together via computer, you can't stop in for a NEW appraisal at 2nd location - they will just pull the original. Ditto waiting and going back later.

Picked up a Silver 2.0T SE without navigation but with autodimming mirror, carpet floor mats, mud guards, and cargo net over the weekend: MSRP: $25,580 Listed Transaction Price: $24,455 Trade-in: $6,069 (2002 Honda Odyssey EX, 132,916 miles) Net Price: $18,386 plus TT&L and $279 doc fee. Financed everything at 0.9% APR for 36 months. This was in Nashville, Tennessee. Keep in mind the dealer inflated the trade-in value in order to bring down the price of the Sonata; the Odyssey was probably worth about $5,000 optimistically (realistically closer to $4500-$4800) but if we assume the trade-in was worth $5,000, that meant the net price of the Sonata was $23,386. We didn't care how the dealer structured it as long as they hit the net price we wanted. Rock bottom price? No. But it was a fairly painless shopping experience and while the other dealers may have been able to beat the price by $200, it would have come back anyway in the form of a higher document fee. Also for some reason Nashville seems to be more expensive than other cities nationally in terms of new car prices.
