I have used Jim's Car Care since I moved here in 2009. They are all hard working and the most honest mechanics I have ever used. If you have a problem with your car, you can't find any shop better. They will have my service as long as I live in NC. When in doubt,check Jim's out!
Always enjoy working with all the advisors. Great work, done quickly. Always fair pricing with great communication. Highly recommended.
Jim and everyone at Jim's are excellent. Always on schedule and at the expected price! We don't need to search elsewhere. Ken
Jim's maintains a record on my car and when I needed an inspection I was immediately notified and an appointment set. I was, as usual, welcomed warmly and as a friend, having a short chat about similar interests. The work was done promptly and well. Jim's is the only place I will entrust my car.
Always the best. Identify the problem and fix. The Best of Brunswick stickers on the shop entry doors are there for a reason.
We’ve lived here eight years and I’ve taken our cars to Jim’s Car Care every year for every need. It’s a home town business where they know your name. Fast, friendly and at the best price you can’t beat Jim’s to care for your car.
Always a pleasure to have car serviced here. They are courteous, professional and honest. Would recommend them to everyone.
We have used Jim's car care for many years. I have always been greeted by his employees professionally and I would recommend his shop always.
I have been using Jim’s for over fifteen years. They are wonderful to work with, always friendly and helpful. The service is excellent. I have been very satisfied.
Very honest! Prompt service. Good people! You can count on Jim's car care for all your service needs. No problem is to big or small. I went in for a nail in my tire and was served promptly.
Excellent service. They always take great care of my car.

Jim's repaired a tire for us, and did quickly. Always happy with the services they provide
My 2007 Nissan Frontier had several problems that needed work. I was going out of town for a long weekend and asked Jim’s Car Care if they could fit me in their schedule while I was gone. They did a great job inspecting the truck and communicating their recommendations. They ordered the parts and got the work done…
Such a great appt. My first time there and was able to get a same day appt which was critical as I had an issue over the weekend. ALL the employees were so friendly and were so very helpful. After checking out the vehicle, it was determined my issue was not a problem. Everything was researched and a detail…
Service was great.. very friendly and thorough, they checked everything! Very reasonable and I will take my car there from now on for everything!
My wife was coming home from a doctor appointment in Myrtle Beach, when she called me and said that a tire pressure warning light had just come on. She told me she was about 10 minutes from Jim's Car Care, so I suggested she stop at Jim's and get it checked. Less than 30 minutes later she was on her way home. The…
As I have testified previously, from Southport to Jim'sCar Care....we pass many other repair shops along the way. Honest, more than fair....treated as if you are family and performing the work to YOUR satisfaction. Competitive pricing for 4 new Michelin Tires for our F?-250. Fully serviced including alignment.…

Jim’s Car Care is excellent for car inspections I was in and out in 20 minutes. They are also great for car repairs. We’ve been going there for over 10 years. Staff is very courteous and efficient. So if you are looking for a good mechanic with reasonable prices, look no further. Call Jim’s Car Care.
I had a nail in a tire and they saw me immediately and it was resolved quickly and efficiently. I can’t recommend them any higher. They are the best
I have been bringing our family cars to Jim's Car Care for servicing for about 14 years now and have NEVER had a bad experience. The servicing has always been done in a timely manner, and their recommendation's very trustworthy. Dave Raney
Always a great experience. Been a customer since they opened. Always helpful. Jim's gets all my business. Do not shop around. They take care of the difficult so why would I go elsewhere for the easy stuff (wiper blades, tires etc.) Thanks Jim
I’ve checked off quite a few boxes. Been going to Jim’s for years. Any vehicle they’ve worked on was done CORRECTLY the 1st time. TOP NOTCH auto repair shop. + staff great. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!👍👍😊
Jim’s car care is always very helpful and friendly. I like that they explain everything to the customer in easy to understand terms. Thanks Jim’s employees!!
One of the great services provided by Jim's Car Care is that they inspect your vehicles operating systems, brakes, fluids, lights. On a recent oil change, they inspected my brakes and advised I would be needing a rear brake replacement soon. This is just another example of what good they do. So we went back and got…
I needed new tires and TPMS sensors on two cars. I made the mistake of going to another shop first ... what a mistake it was. The place was chaotic and not well run. It took forever, they neglected to do work that was on the work order, damaged my car, massively over-torqued the lug nuts and more! I couldn't go…
Great repair shop. Had 100,000 mile service performed. $200 less that dealer quote. Will be back with other vehicles.
Great people...great service.
Since moving to the area two years ago, I have been in need of car repair services three times. All three times (four if you include an inspection) I have taken my car to Jim's Car Care and have been completely satisfied each time. The people are friendly, courteous and efficient. The technicians know their stuff…
Always fair, reasonable rates, fixed right the first time. Highly recommend Jim's for any and all car repairs.
As usual Jim's Car Care provided excellent vehicle service to my 2006 Tacoma truck. Thank you again Jim, Phil, Bob, ...
As usual excellent advice & service. Appointments are take seriously. Don’t want car issues but if they occur it’s great knowing Jim’s service is available.

Excellent service, friendly staff, detailed explanation of requested problems , very satisfied!!
Had two rear tires replaced.Great Service!
These guys a fantastic! I thought I needed an alignment; and I did not. How many other auto service shops would pass up a chance to sell you some service whether you needed it or not?
My go to business for all my auto issues. Always satisfied
Jim’s is the most dependable, knowledgable and honest repair and service I have ever experienced! They are always responsive to your auto needs.
Tire rotation and oil changes are two of the most important scheduled maintenance activities needed to extend the life of a vehicle. It's nice to know it is being conducted with professional pride. Appreciate the additional inspection of other fluid levels and filter conditions as well. Trustworthy team!
I arrived early for my appointment they took me right in and completed inspection oil change and tire rotation in about hour and 15 minutes! They are absolutely a top notch service center!
Jim's Car Care is excellent to work with. Very professional and trustworthy. They go the extra mile to make sure all is done right and are great in communicating exactly what repairs are needed/done.
Needed a tire repaired asap. Called and had it repaired in no time. Couldn't ask for better service
The best service anywhere! Trustworthy and knowledgeable staff! The ONLY shop I've used since moving here in 2016!
Thanks for fixing my tire

Competitive prices and the work is always completed on time, within the estimate, and right the first time. Owner and employees are knowledgeable, very helpful, and friendly. Waiting room is clean…
another good experience. How often do you find that less work needs to be done than you expected? Left my SUV requesting F & R brakes only to find that they reinspected, replaced front & determined that rears were good & safe with 15-20k miles left to go?? That was followed by half the bill I expected & a full,…
I moved to Holden Beach September 2020: I found “my car care company” yesterday, September 30, 2021. Thank you Jim’s Car Care! 2/17/22: another superstar performance!
