Auto repair service near Rio Vista, TX

Brought my 2004 Dodge truck in for first 500 mile checkup and oil change on the new engine Rick's installed. They did a magnificent job and the new engine runs beautifully!! Now my old truck is back on the road with a smile on my face! -Howard Trice

I moved to Cleburne over seven years ago. Not too long after coming to town, I needed some work done on a vehicle. I asked around and several folks recommended I go to John's Auto. Since then I've been back several times for different reasons because I drive older vehicles. They have always treated me fairly, and there haven't been any surprises. Once he told me what my problem was and suggested I might fix it myself more cheaply. The last time I was there the final bill was actually LOWER than the price I authorized over the phone. They stay busy, so sometimes I have to wait a day or so, but they always take good care of me.

Just look what they did to this lady - I wouldn't trust them! http://dfw.cbslocal.com/2015/09/25/auto-shop-wont-return-single-mothers-car/

Flat rate for labor is $200.00 even if its an easy fix of $19.00 for a new thermostat. I took my car in on a Monday morning to get a professionals opinion as to why my car was overheating. I did not receive a call back until Friday at 4:30pm I immediately returned my missed call at 5pm, but they were already closed, WHICH their sign says they are open from 8:00am to 5:30pm. The following Monday a week after my car was dropped off I call back and ask for the DANNY what the issue is with my car, he did give me an estimate of $250.00 to replace the thermostat, NO WAY!!! Oreilly's has it in stock for $19.00. I told Danny, No don't fix it I'll be there to pick up my car. When i arrive at the shop two hours later (during my lunch break from work) he says there is a fee for $87.00 to put my car back together. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!! Why am I being charged if no repairs where done to my car? Because it had to sit at his shop for a whole week before they can even look at it & they had to take it apart to find out why it was overheating....BULL! I had been a loyal customer since 2005, he had done major repairs to all my vehicle, so i knew his labor charge is $200.00, but to replace a simple thermostat, sorry i was not going to pay $250.00 when i can replace it myself. I asked nicely to waive the $87.00 since it wasn't my fault that my car was sitting there for a WHOLE week, he has a temper WATCH OUT!! he yelled at me said NO $87.00 and get your car out of here or $250.00 so we can fix it! I said to him fix it & please have it ready within the hour (I was there at 11:30am), he said NO I'll have it ready at 3:30pm, i said fine i will be here at 3pm. I go to pick up my car Danny says to me I was able to knock of $7.00...Thank you Danny & paid the bill.... YOU JUST LOST ONE LOYAL CUSTOMER TODAY!!!

These people are honest, and that seems to be rare with car repair these days. They fixed a stalling problem with my Mom's car, very fair price. I even took my Jeep in with a strange noise, they diagnosed it, and we determined that I could go without the repair for a while. They could have really said anything, I would not have known, but they were honest, and for that, I am loyal. Oh, and they put some fluid in that I really needed, charged me @15.00 for the whole thing. They are the best!

I am a former manager of this place. Myself along with 6 other employees have quit due to the lack of respect, James has for employees and customers, and the lack of knowledge for his own store. I worked a few weeks straight, 12 hour days with NO break and cursed at me in Lebanese when I told him I needed a day off to rest. I personally called the cops (WHD recommended) to be escorted to receive my paycheck because he has withheld it. He made the cop issue me a criminal trespass warning, he has made my life a living nightmare. I have contacted the BBB, WHD, Workforce Commissions, and a lawyer. There is fraud, and health and safety violations issues that I am trying to report. I am posting on this site because this needs to be seen by others. He over taxes people on EVERYTHING. He will charge 1.50 for water in this hot Texas weather. It might be hear-say but employees have told me he steals from the registers. DO NOT eat the fried pies, that pie shop is something I've never seen before, I would not eat anything from that shop even if it was the last place on earth! The cooler is leaking water all over the product he sells. There is sitting water in the fridge in the pie shop where he stores the food. Does not provide gloves for the employees to make the pies. There are no dates on the containers. If anything, you could be eating a 3 month old pie. James is too involved in his Weatherford store, to care about this one. He treats woman like they are dirt, he treats his employees like they are dirt. I want this to be shared, this man is cruel and his store is in bad shape. Save your time, and stop at another gas station that wont rip you off and you will be treated properly as a customer.

As a woman, car repair can be intimidating and it's important to find a shop that I can trust. Kevin and Brian are some of the nicest guys! They are not necessarily the cheapest, but they are really reasonable and great to work with. They won't recommend work that doesn't need to be done. Before they had ever done any mechanical work for us, I had called because I had a flat tire. They came by, while I was gone, and aired up my tire. I came home and it was fixed! NO CHARGE!!! We keep our cars until they no longer work. One has over 150k and the other over 230k and B&M is helping us get every mile out of them! (They are hard to see from the road. Look for the carwash next to tractor supply. It's behind the carwash.) Angie T. Mansfield, TX

Always great service! Thank you.
