Automotive News & Information - Royson's Automotive | Blythewood, Columbia, & Chapin, SC

I've had my vehicle worked on two different times in about three months. Kendra was/is amazing. She wasn't sure when they could get to it, but I dropped it off Thursday night. They had it ready to go Friday afternoon. The second time it was an issue I couldn't describe. My second job is driving a lot, and she helped me describe the issue. They worked on my car and found the issue right away! I went to pay, and it was less than quoted because this place had compassionate and dedicated people working for their community. I will never forget their service and compassion. Kendra is an absolute asset. Their mechanic is also phenomenal. They have never tried to upsell me and pieced it out so I could afford the repairs on my budget. Thank you Royson's, you put other places to shame!!!

Found my Chevy Astro cargo van years ago at a shady-looking car lot up near Lake Murray, but before I bought it, I paid K+A to go over it in detail. I followed their advice. I did certain repairs and maintenance they recommended, and it all turned out great for years. This year they replaced the whole ac system, front and rear struts, and other things old age required. They treated me fairly in price, prompt service, and no hollow promises before they checked it out. I would recommend them to anyone.

We arranged to get my son's car repaired here when they had trouble on the road. Were easy to work with over the phone. Replaced 2 tires for a fair price. Was very pleased with the helpful service!

Dropped off my car for the brakes to be replaced, but through an extensive and thorough diagnostic by the Royson technician, the replacement was deemed unnecessary. They would go on to replace the hardware that failed free of charge! The knowledge and professionalism displayed by Royson’s is unmatched!

Sometimes it is EASY to see if your car or truck needs to come into our shop for professional repairs!
1. You see steam rising from the engine!
2. The Check Engine Light is on!
3. The engine starts, but there is an odor that is not right.
4. You hear grinding or thumping noises.

Here at Royson's Automotive we often do diagnostics and sometimes the problem is obvious after hooking the car up to the computer and reading the codes. However, sometimes it isn't obvious during a test drive or after hooking it up to all those computer programs! You know there is a problem and a Check Engine Light is on with the fleet customer telling you the car has been having issues starting and the light has been going off and on depending on several factors. No pattern, no simple answer but the problem becomes obvious when you start following the "threads of the issue" thanks to all that ASE Technician training.

Obviously, your brakes are pretty important. At Royson's Automotive, we are here to make sure your car, truck, or SUV stops like it should.

Your brake system is made of many components that all have to work correctly for your brakes to operate seamlessly. If one thing needs to be repaired, the whole system is compromised. Brake pads, rotors, hoses, calipers, and metal lines all play a part in stopping your car. Our team is equipped to make sure all of those parts are in working order, so you can be safe on the road ahead.

Your car data owned by manufacturers now

Newer Vehicles Generate as Much As 25GB of Data/Hour according to McKinsey. Now That is Extremely Interesting! It is also daunting as we now need to know "what data" right? You also want to know where it is going if anywhere and who owns the data? All interesting questions that we never thought about. Just get in and drive, choose a destination and if a light goes off in the dash you call us here at Royson's Automotive to schedule an appointment. We want our Blythewood drivers to be informed as always and able to make their choices based on having facts. This is a big change in the automotive-truck service industry and it really has not hit the news at all, so it is up to us to get you up-to-date and informed. Here are the facts and where you can find more information!
