Amazing business and incredible service! I own a 2015 Tundra and I had a whining noise coming from my motor. Thought it could be an alternator, water pump or a tensioner. They looked at it and said it was a water pump and they were going to replace it. They gave me a reasonable quote and when they went to fix it they realized they were wrong. The alternator was the issue. The alternator is a more labor intensive repair and a more expensive part. Lextech fixed it for the original quoted price no questions asked. I wish my wifes car was a lexus or toyota just so I could have these guys as mechanics for all of our vehicles. Cans say enough about the service I received.
Took my car in for leaking fluid as well as timing chain knocking diagnosis. Richard scheduled the appointment as well as followed up with me over the phone with diagnosis and a plan for repairs.They were very professional in answering all my questions and addressing all my concerns. They would not charge me for a diagnosis either.This is the kind of place youd want working on your vehicle. A+
I always have a great experience when I drop my car off. They dont try to sell me on extra unnecessary services. My car is in good hands when I drop it off for maintenance.
Switched to lex-tech awhile back after dealing with an issue every single Rick Hendrick lexus visit. I have had nothing but great experiences and honest info from lex tech. One time I took my car in for a quick inspection because we thought we heard a noise. They found nothing wrong and didnt charge us a cent. No upselling work, only oem parts and repairs, great service!
I have not personally been to this establishment yet, but I did call them recently to ask some questions. The gentleman listened and answered what he could and I appreciate him for that. Im thinking about using this place in the future and this experience helps me in making that decision.
I have simply had enough of Richard. There are very few mechanics who specialize in Lexus cars and SUV’s and I went to Lextech in light of their good reviews. It’s no better than anyone else; quite worse to the contrary. A hassle is an understatement. Prices are high. When my Lexus RX had issues, he advised that it was not worth fixing and to sell it for 500 dollars. Upon advice of a friend, I listed it for 2,500 and sold it within 2 hours of listing. As a side note, 2k doesn’t seem much to Richard given some of his invoices. But I gave him the benefit of the doubt, as with many other times, and kept doing business with him. Today is the last day I will speak of Lextech as it is nothing worth talking about. I scheduled an oil change earlier this week. He called me today, advising me that his shop no longer does oil changes as he does not have the manpower and basically that he can only do mechanical work as it makes him more money. Why take my appointment! Or do you have an opportunity to make an extra buck Richard? Thank you for another inconvenience. I hope you find some tech’s that can tolerate you. Maybe change your attitude, pay them a little more given what you charge the customer, and be a little more better with customer service. A few suggestions that I am happy to say that I will never be able to follow up on. At the very least, when you make a commitment to a customer, you stand by your word. You did not.
Great place to get my car repair
Good honesty people who know Toyota and charge less than the dealership service department. What more do you really want in an auto mechanic?
Just called and he acted like I was bothering him. Said he only had 1 Tech and rushed me off of the phone
Very good reputation for honest, high quality of service.
I have been going to Rich & Glenns LEX-TECH for many years even though I live a 2 hour drive away! On top of the master diagnostics, great education given, and lower prices than dealers, they are being VERY WISE & CAREFUL about COVID-19. Kudos, as my wife and I are high risk seniors.
Awesome service thank you Richard and crew
Highly recommend this company. Very professional service.
Great service and people. Reasonable rates. Do not take advantage of you. I highly recommend them.
Great service..rapid repairs richard is the best keeps you informed
I had my 2009 Toyota towed from Fred Anderson Toyota to LexTech for a second opinion. I was experiencing a combination of Check VFC System, dead battery, and possibly a blown fuse block. The tech at LexTech called me and asked me personally for the symptoms the vehicle was experiencing and wanted lots of details and asked lots of questions. Its very clear these folks, including the owner, Richard, know their stuff very well and take their job seriously.The price for LexTech to complete this work was ~65% of what Toyota wanted to charge. These folks use Toyota parts and its apparent theyre masters at their trade. When they called me back, they claimed that the fuse block was absolutely not blown ($1500 at Fred Anderson Toyota) and that the vehicle was functioning as it should after a simple battery replacement.They even took the time to diagnose the Check VSC System issue if it were to reappear and determined that the neutral safety switch was the issue. Unfortunately, they didnt feel comfortable replacing the switch as the check engine light didnt reappear and vehicle was performing as it should.These folks are smart, detail oriented, and honest. 10/10 will go back to them for maintenance on my 2009 Toyota Land Cruiser.
This was my first time at Lex Tech. I was very impressed with them. They did only the service items that Lexus said was required. The dealership would have been much much more, doing unnecessary work Im definitely going back. I actually could talk to the mechanic working on my car, which I really appreciated.
Honest automotive repair shop
Excellent service, felt like they were honest with me and fixed my wifes AC quickly.
Highly recommend Lex Tech! They are honest, professional, reliable and informative. They ask questions to truly understand what may be going on with your vehicle. And considering you get the work done right the FIRST time... I find them to be reasonably priced. It is QUALITY over quantity with them. I take my used car there with confidence that I wont be upsold a part or service I don’t genuinely need. Also a plus is that I don’t have to worry about those pesky calls you get from expensive dealerships trying to sell you on a new car (even when they’ve admitted the used car is in great condition) after repeatedly stating you are not interested in a new car.
I have used Lex Tech for many years. Glen and the guys do great work, and they go above and beyond to keep me on the road. I Highly recommend them.
I have not had my car repaired here, but I wanted to write a review because I called to discuss some transmission issues Im having with my Toyota 4Runner, and Richard at Lex Tech was extremely helpful to me over the phone.He was very knowledgeable and generous with his time while discussing the issue and potential resolutions.Perhaps its more commonplace these days at repairs shops to talk in detail before bringing the car in, but my experience in the past is that the person answering the phone either doesnt have the knowledge to talk in depth about a specific problem or they dont have the time or patience to do it.I will strongly consider taking my car to Lex Tech in the future if I have work to be done, even though Im not in the West Ashley or James Island area.
Everyone seems to receive assistance but I called to have my car examined and they refused to even have me tow it there. Richard claimed my car was too old and a headache to work on because old cars break down and that I should just get rid of it. I was turned away before I even showed up since my 1995 lexus is considered beyond repair. Yet another review here has a gentleman with a similar year and make receiving help so whats the difference with my car? I was basically rushed off the phone too. Honestly disappointed.
Great service I could not have ask for a better service Mr Richard character and theMechanic awesome over all service so great and friendly, never experience that kind of service before, Richard and Elaine
I started taking my automobile to Lex Tech a few years ago on the referral from a good friend. I have always been treated well and told exactly what my car needed or would need in the future. My grandson was looking at a used car to purchase, so I suggested we take it to Lex Tech to have them evaluate it. We were ecstatic that they gave it a thumbs up.I would recommend them to anyone, which has not always been the case when I was taking my car elsewhere.It is a wonderful feeling to be that confident with such an important item.
We have been using Lex Tech for many years now and couldnt be happier. The owner Glen is the finest Toyota/Lexus mechanic in Charleston and we have been everywhere. Superb workmanship and detailed explanation of every step of your vehicle repair. As far as service at the front, the manager Richard is a quintessential gentleman, always courteous and helpful he explains everything in detail with the utmost professionalism. The waiting area at the front is impeccable as is the staff.Thanks for the great experience, sincerely Roberto
Glen and Richard run a top notch operation. Glen practically has PhD in Lexus-Toyota mechanics. Honest and reliable, theyve kept my 22 year old SC300 running like a top. Hopefully it will be in the distant future, but my next vehicle will be a Toyota or Lexus, if for no other reason than I can have it serviced at Lex Tech.
I absolutely love the service and attention at Lex Tech. The manager was awesome to speak with and gave me valuable information regarding my 2002 4Runner. Although I live in the Midlands now, I will only use Lex Tech and will make the 2 hour drive. Its worth having true Toyota enthusiasts work on your vehicle. The dealers cannot compare to the personal attention you will receive from using Lex Tech.Sean
Richard and team are the best. Besides competitive rates and quick turnaround, they really went out of their way to ease my worries and explain every step of my vehicles repair. I walked away feeling like I could trust Lex-Tech to do the right thing and not take advantage of me during a time of need. Highly, highly recommend Lex-Tech as your go-to Lexus mechanic in Charleston. Thank you all again!
We have been using Lex Tech for several years now. This is the best Toyota lexus repair shop in town hands down. We were being poisoned by a leaky muffler, we went to 3 different shops got charged never fixed the problem. Glen fixed it immediately and we have been going there ever since. Richard runs the front office and is a consummate gentleman, highly professional. What a great experience.
Lex Tech is a wonderful place to take your car. They have taken care of my Lexus for years and I have never had a complaint with them. They do the job right the first time and let you know what needs to be done. Very courteous, friendly and efficient.
Places like this are hard to come by--so dont pass them up! Having used other dealers and national chains, nobody compares to the service and honesty here. I got a call this morning to explain the service and estimated price that I would be paying. I have had issues at other dealerships where they just never called to go over the work or even let you know that your work was done. You wont regret using them!
I used to be able to work on my cars myself, but not anymore. Not since they all went computer on me. I suppose you could put me in the category of the women, who are so afraid of getting screwed over, when the mechanic sees them coming. it is so important to me, that I, without question, trust the people that work on my car. Im a single parent, and to know that my daughter is in a car, that is kept safe and reliable, is gold to me. They know money is tight with me, and if something can wait, I know theyre not going to hock me for things that are still going to get us down the road. I know that the things that need fixing, are legit. They are, piece of mind to me. Thank you Lex Tech, Mike.
I have been using Lex Tech since they first opened on James Island. They have always been professional, reasonable, responsive to customer needs and have done excellent repairs. I have never had to bring the vehicle back for adjustment on one of their repairs. Its rare for me to say I trust these mechanics, but I definitely do.
Im probably repeating the same as all the other reviews but I cannot say enough great things about Lex Tech. Every repair is gone through and explained in detail so I, as a female, know what is going on with the car. We have used them multiple times for our Toyotas (both 2002s) after being taken advantage of at other places. One repair was a rattling noise. On the initial drive the noise wasnt happening but they took the car out again until they heard the noise and understood the problem. Quality workmanship on all repairs. HIGHLY recommend!
Good work
Unfortunately my trusty old Corolla was crashed into and totaled. I realized its much easier to find another good car - than to find such competent, trustworthy mechanics so I stuck with Toyota to keep the LexTech crew on my team. Im positive I made the right decision!
I would highly recommend Glenn and Lex Tech to any Toyota owner. Glenn has been working on my 1987 Landcruiser for over five years. His knowledge of Toyota trucks far surpasses local dealers and other auto repair shops. As a bonus, his pricing is quite reasonable. We now use him exclusively for our 2008 and 2010 4Runners as well. You wont find a better Toyota shop in Charleston!
LexTech has been a great resource for us servicing our 4Runner. They have fair pricing and will let you know what maintenance items need to be taken care of right away and which can wait a while. They even gave us advice on purchasing a used Toyota and they are the main reason we bought another one! I wouldnt take our vehicle anywhere else.
AMAZING service!!!! These guys are the best! Customer for life!
Richard has always been helpful, beyond fair with pricing, and has done excellent work with my 2000 Lexus RX300. I highly recommend using him if you drive a Lexus or Toyota.
These guys know what they are doing. They are quick to diagnosis and they are quick to repair and they are less than the dealer will charge. I recommend Lex-Tech to anyone!
Lex Tech is the only place to take your Lexus or Toyota. Fast, friendly, fair, and most of all, THEY KNOW THEIR STUFF! These guys take pride in what they do and it shows! I highly recommend them. A+
We have 3 Toyotas and been going to Glenn and family for at least 3 years. Everyone is always professional, its easy to get appointments and dont feel as though Ive been taken to the cleaners when I receive my bill. I have and would recommend friends and family to Lex Tech for services on their vehicles.
Great pricing wonderful service and oem parts!
LexTech always provides quality service, they do the work that is necessary and that you want. The work that is to be done is completely explained ahead of them. I highly recommend them.
Great service.
Incredibly impressed with LexTech - knowledgeable, friend, and most importantly - honest. They only use genuine parts and will pick up on problems that others will miss. Strongly recommend them.
The owner helped resolve an issue with my land cruiser. This issue couldnt be resolved by a different mechanic place. True customer service was shown and for that I thank you!
Great pricing, great work.
These guys are great! Fair, honest and just plain nice. Take all my Toyotas to them.
Absolutely the best mechanics youll ever find.
The best thing about Lex Tech that I have learned after owning several Toyotas and one Lexus is that they will tell you what could be done and what needs to be done to fix your car. Its great to have the ability to go to an honest group of mechanics.
Excellent customer service and fair prices that beat the dealership any day.
I always received first class repairs and service. I would definitely recommend Lex Tech to my family and friends.
My repair failed within the year and under 10,000 miles later. they refuse to honor their warranty system.
The work on my car was professionally done and the work was completed in a timely fashion. I always receive quality service at this shop.
Lex Tech makes any service easy! Its also fairly priced and convenient.
The replacement and repair of the brake booster was excellent. I noticed that my trunk release button is not working, but I was out of town and have not had a chance to bring my car in.
Highly recommend. Dont go to Toyota dealer. Tire pressure sensor got bad. To replace it, Lex Tech charged $98.61 for parts and $66.50 for labor. On the exact same problem, Fred Anderson Toyota charged $114.66 for parts and $195.20 for labor.
Very thorough and professional and yet reasonably priced. I would highly recommend.
Great service and a big saving over dealership.
Great guys, reasonable price, excellent work. They are extremely knowledgable about the Toyo, Scion, Lexus brands.
Thank you guys for all your work
Fair prices and first class service for all your toyota vehicles. These people know their business and dont guess at what they do!
Gotta Toyota? Lexus? Other import? Tune up? Rebuild? Repair? Custom work?I purchased a 1974 Toyota Land Cruiser, a 40 years old truck - but not until I talked to Lex Tech; they more know as much or more about it than ANY other mechanic in a repair shop in the area. The dealerships even referred me to them when I had questions! My friends referred me to them. Im suggesting you take that truck to them!Lex Tech has performed : pre-purchase inspection, post-purchase inspections, tune up, repair / replace rear differential, adjust 4 wheel drum brakes, upgrade axle components, upgrade to disk brakes, convert FJ40 to complete FJ60 steering components, Power Steering upgrade - using nearly 40 year old OEM parts - not aftermarket parts!, alignment, and more.And Im planning on an AC & a 5 speed conversion with them as well !From the simple tune up to a major front end upgrade..... there is no better Toyota and Lexus shop in Charleston !
Glenn and Richard are the best. My first choice hands down.
We always get expert quality service from Richard and Glenn!
Great mechanics, but prices are pretty close to dealership.
Very professional. Quick to tell me what was needed and got the job done.They are on Savannah Highway now.
Always trustworthy service and advice!
Honest, knowledgeable, dependable.
Professional and Affordable Service
Been using these guys for nearly 10 years. There maybe cheaper solutions, but IMO there isnt a better one. These guys are experts.
The service call was an excellent experience
AMAZING, HONEST & EFFICIENT!
Richard is the best
Professional and honest!!!
