Curtis Hi Tech Auto Center

These guys are the best! Stranded with a dead starter on a Friday afternoon. They got me in quickly and down the road. Staff was very friendly and very inviting. I am new to the Asheville area, but I will take all my business to them and refer to them for quick, quality work.

Not natives of Asheville, we didn’t know where to go when one of my dashboard lights came on while we were traveling through the city on I-​26 one weekend recently. We called a local AutoZone who told us to swing by there to diagnose the problem. Turns out it was the alternator. But AutoZone recommended Hi Tech, which was about 50 yards down the road. Hi Tech had just closed for the day, but they took us anyway. AutoZone delivered the part immediately, and the whole operation took just 20 minutes. And the bill was just over $ 300. I am used to paying a lot more for alternators for the cars of my past. Hi Tech is a family operation, and everyone there was mild mannered, friendly, and more than happy to help out a couple of panicked travelers. We are in their debt!

Very trustworthy and honest! Glad I can make an appointment to have my car serviced and that they are now open on Saturdays! My car has been serviced here many times and I have always been pleased with the service and workmanship. I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else in Asheville.

I just can’t say enough good things about the guys (and girls) over at Curtis Hi-​Tech. They were recommended to me by a car-​dude friend when I was new in town and thought I was going to have to have my transmission rebuilt. They’re super-​friendly, fast, inexpensive, and above all they are honest. What could have been a $ 2500 ordeal turned out to be a $ 25 vacuum line rupture that they repaired in about 20 minutes, and sent me on my merry way.
I haven’t gone to anyone else since. I never have trouble getting an appointment, and I’m never waiting for long. I’m a somewhat paranoid car-​owner, and they’ve checked out a few «problems» that turned out to be nothing, and didn’t charge me. For a trip check, it was $ 15. They don’t try to sell you anything you don’t need, or scare you into upgrades like they do at Firestone or chain places. The work they do is always very solid.
They’re good people with a good business. I moved home across the country recently after living in Asheville for 3 years, and I realized I’m sad to leave because I won’t be able to give them my money anymore. How’s that for a testimonial?

Efficient, friendly, and helpful.
