Auto repair service near Garland, TX

This is a DISHONEST shop. I had a misfire on one cylinder and they gave me a false diagnosis of a failed open injector - $273 to replace. It seemed like a reasonable diagnosis at the time and since I was about 300 miles from home I authorized the work. A few hours later I picked up my truck; the misfire was fixed so I paid the bill. When I got home I immediately noticed that they replaced the ignition coil (a job that should have cost under $100) but never touched the injector. The business owner adamantly insisted they replaced the injector but it was obvious to me that they did not, and an independent Nissan dealer also confirmed in writing that the injector had not been replaced. I eventually got my money refunded by filing a dispute with my credit card company. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND LOOKING ELSEWHERE for vehicle service. There are plenty of honest shops out there, but this is certainly not one of them.

The work performed was satisfactory, owner/mechanic is obviously knowledgeable and has been in business for many years. Like most auto repair shops, they so often fail to show their cost of parts plus the mark up, which can be significant depending on brand and who the wholesaler is. In most cases auto repair shops will buy after market products instead of OEM, which allows them to mark up the parts a 100 to 150 percent plus labor. This lack of transparency can cost the customer a good deal of money over an above what is considered reasonable. First consult a auto parts store for pricing on parts needed, you'll find that the retail pricing will be less than what your paying the auto repair shop. In most cases auto repair labor charges will exceed the cost of parts by 70 to 300 percent, a wide disparity indeed.

Service met my expectations. I was satisfied with the experience of the service personnel. Leaders, Doni and Jason, were excellent in explaining the pathway they were going to use to get Mercedes E350 repaired. I would not hesitate to use their services again.

I wanted to wait a bit before posting a review just to be positive I was as pleased with the work as I initially thought, and by golly, I am! Due to Covid restrictions (I guess) my regular repair shop has been closed, and my car was making scary awful noises as I drove (never a good feeling). Car repairs are never easy for a single gal that knows absolutely zero about cars, especially when looking for a new mechanic (get ripped off much)! Anyway, I was given a recommendation by someone I barely knew to go to Jerry at Christian's Auto Repair, and man oh man, am I thrilled I acted on the recommendation! My car is older (2008), and it is driving like a brand new vehicle. I look down and I am going 85 mph (I never normally speed in my "beater" car), and the ride is as smooth and quiet as a new car! Thoroughly pleased with the kindness and professionalism I received at Christians on Dallas Road in Grapevine, and I will be return there going forward for maintenance and repairs. Thanks so much Jerry!

This company has been wonderful to me! They saved my bacon a couple times! Charles came out and help me the first time and discovered some major things wrong with a car I bought. I found out it was bad. I was able to turn it in and get another wonderful car. And Charles came out before I got the wonderful car and help me out again. The receptionists are great and friendly. I can't say really enough for this company. Laure H.

Found my new shop. Knowing they offer a shuttle service is a huge plus, but the service and fair price is what I'll come back for. My mechanic worked with me on my parts issues and I feel like I got a good price for quality installing shocks all around. Staff made it as painless as possible and truck drives like it did new. Thanks gang :)

Bob Parra runs a well-managed and professional auto service. We have used them for years and each time they have performed beyond our expectations. From the time you come in to the time you pick up your vehicle, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They explain things at a level I can understand. They do not pressure us. They explain the facts and help us determine the best solution and timeline. Each time we bring in our vehicle, they give it a good inspection so we know we are driving a safe vehicle. It used to be hard to find a good car repair shop. I don't know if that is true for today because we have gone to Parra Car Care for so long. If you are looking for a top-notch shop that respects it's customers and tries very hard to please them then this is one of the best. They are great mechanics!

Scott & the rest of the employees at this shop give excellent service. I had to get my front brakes done a month or 2 ago & they were able to provide an affordable price for me to get them done as well as have the work done while I was at work in about an hour's time. Not only was it done conveniently fast, it was done right. Then about 2 weeks ago my car was vandalized leaving both of my passenger side windows shattered. Again I had the repairs done at FT Auto & not only saved myself some struggle as well as money on the glass replacement but also recieved the same great timely service again. If there are any repairs you are needing done to your car- the right & affordable way- then look no further.

These folks are the real deal! Friendly and qualified, they don't sell you stuff you don't need. They just rebuilt my engine and the final bill was $200 less than the estimate. When's the last time THAT happened to you? They work on classics as well as modern cars...there's always a cool car or two to check out when you are there!

Pravin is the owner. He will work with you to discover the problem and then propose a solution. My car had an ignition problem and after taking it to one shop where they told me they couldn't fix it, I took it to Mom's and they fixed it. Very professional operation.

TIS PEAPLE ARE GREAT .AND THEY ARE SOOOO PRO ON THE WORK OF THE CARS.

Nick goes above and beyond to provide a great service at the lowest cost possible. He will shop parts from different suppliers to find a deal, etc. then present all the options to you and he lets the customer decide. He has always been honest with me and never suggests extra work that doesn't truly need to be done. Never pushy. Always wants what is best for the customer's needs. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Went there told them what.I wanted and how much money I had to work with and they got me into what I wanted very fast and friendly great service would recommend to anybody Cory terry

My car would not start, I thought it was a bad battery. They checked it out and said the battery was good - no need to waste money on a new battery. They found the problem (alternator), and fixed it the same day. Price was reasonable too.

He is a crook and does not care about anybody ,Just wants to make that money. Someone will probably get tired of him and act out. He knows condition of cars he is selling he puts a band aid on it to sell it.

PLEASE ABOVE ALL COSTS AVOID THIS PLACE… PLEASE ABOVE ALL COSTS AVOID THIS PLACE THEY SCAM YOU AND GIVE YOU A WARRANTY I HAD MY CAR FIXED THERE TRANSMISSION WAS NEVER ACTUALLY FIXED HAD TO GO BACK 3 TIMES AFTER 3 FAILURES THEN THEY WILL TELL YOU NO WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH IT SAYS 12 MONTH WARRANTY SO NOW I'M STUCK WITH A BROKEN TRANSMISSION AND OUT OF 1000.00 DOLLARS SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO TO A REPUTABLE SHOP AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I brought my car to Allway Auto for exhaust leak. The owner told me that he can fix it for $250. I left my car and left. About one day later, he called and told me that the bolts were very difficult to remove. He had already spent more than 10 hours on my car. He wanted me to give him $200 dollars more. In order to get my car back, I had no choice but pay him what he asked. He only accepted cash. I received a hand written receipt. No detailed description about what he had done. I really doubt what he said. I do not recommend this shop for car repair.
