Default Help needed in Myrtle Beach, SC

Is anyone on here from the Myrtle Beach (Conway) SC area? Our youngest kid is down there at Coastal Carolina and is having trouble with his car. I'm looking for a recommendation on someplace that can take a look at his car and fix it. Seems to be a problem with the transmission.


Thanks in advance,
Craig

Conway. It's about 5 miles west of Myrtle on Hwy 508 or 501....something like that.

Thanks

He said that the reverse light on the dash comes on when he hits the brakes and it also downshifts at that time. Sounds like an electrical problem or trans problem to me....but I'm not there.

Heres the problem. They will phuk him hard down there. The contact I have doesn't work on trans stuff. The 2 best ideas are 1) go to the Toyota dealer on 501 to see whats up or 2) tell him to get on the 31 bypass and go to Allens Auto in No MB. Those guys are pretty good. Wish I could help more Craig
