Brake repair service near Pflugerville, TX

Finally, I have found a mechanic that does a good job AND that I feel I can trust! Not only do they have the best price I have found in the Austin area for a synthetic oil change, but they went through the list of what my car manufacturer recommended for my service and then let me know what actually should be done and what is just extra money. They gave me a great price and an in depth explanation as to what they did, what I need to watch for, what oil I should use when doing oil changes and most importantly didn't treat me like a dumb blonde (which admittedly when it comes to cars, I am) I will be back and I recommended everyone in the CP/Leander area - especially those with import/European cars to do the same!

It is WORTH every penny. They come out and don't jerk you around. They arrived AND repaired my vehicle within 45 minutes of my call. When you consider the cost of a tow truck, you actually come out ahead, and since they come to where you are, it barely puts a hitch in your day. Tommy was wonderful!

I have owned a German car since age sixteen and know the problems and maintenance that comes along with them. Ever since I moved to Austin for college this has been my go to place for any car problems. Their rates are very reasonable and yes to do provide FREE loaner cars. I highly recommend this place to anyone who owns a foreign vehicle. Clay the GM is very helpful and upfront with what your vehicle needs and what can be held off. Thanks again German Auto Center

Angel was super nice and helpful. I had one day left before a big move across country, and after calling several shops, this was the only place that had time to give me an oil change and look into a problem with the brakes. I got it all done before noon, and he gave me a discount. I made it to DC without any car trouble! I don't usually write reviews, but this shop saved my butt!

Rafa and crew are absolutely the kindest and hard working group of mechanics I’ve ever come across. They are affordable and honest, and it is so nice to support a superb local business. I have an 03’ and 05’ ML and HCEA has kept them running smoothly for years. Please do yourself a favor and ditch the annoying dealership and check these guys out!!! The shop is beautiful, clean, and easy to access as well.

Because of my long,great history with y'all, I am disappointed in my most recent experience. While repairing the wiper motor there was some collateral damage to a door handle and fuel hose. As the car is over 30 years old, I know that these things happen. However, it is not reassuring to see these issues overlooked. I am not really sure how to rate y'all this time. When I pointed these issues out, y'all were extremely quick to fix them. I appreciate your fast and thorough service and hope to have future great experiences.

I run a used car dealership, so I have a lot of vehicles coming in and out of my possession that need repairs, tune-ups, etc. Car-X has given me great prices and impeccable service over the years, I have never even thought of going anywhere else because the service I get there is so good. They were unable to get one of my cars fixed on time once due to a situation outside of their control so they gave me a discount on the price.

Driving down N. Lamar one afternooon i happened to stop at the gas station on Lamar and sagebrush to get a drink and refuel. When i tried to restart my car the starter failed and wouldnt turn over to start my engine. i managed to get the car started which turned out to be the last time and just happpened to turn right onto sagebrush. right in front of mr cool shop my car engine failed which i concluded was a battery issue.......The owner of the shop Chuck Dyiess was in the lot and questioned me when he noticed i needed help.He looked my vechile over and concluded and informed me that a new starter was my fix. When i saw te price of $145 for a new starter my heart sank.I couldnt afford the parts living paycheck to paycheck. What a great time for this to happen.......Chuck treated me like he had known me for 20 yrs and informed me that he had a solution.......Chuck rebuilt my starter had me back on thr road inless than 1 hr for les than $45 !!!!! he saved me $100 treated me like family and made me feeel like he was geniunly concerned about my problem and helped me the best he could.i would tell anyone, that at mrcool radiator the customer needs are top priority and the world wouldd be a better place with more people like Chuck around..... Thanks Mrcool!!!

I must agree with the gentleman before me, I was also approached about windshield cracks repair while I was waiting for inspection when I refused twice my inspection suddenly took 30 minutes and was failed over an oil drip called a massive leak..(BS) I was then told I could either get it fixed there or come back and move to the front of the line for re-inspection..when I came back they said 1hour.. And the manager turns out to also be one of the reps for the glass repair.. Of course it's all a sham.. They seem to have found money from insurance and window repair.

IF YOU WANT TO WAIT 3 1/2 WEEKS FOR A FENDER-BENDER JOB ESTIMATED AT 3 DAYS WHILE THE OWNER TRIES TO GET THE INSURANCE CO. TO PAY MORE MONEY THAN HE AGREED TO FIX IT FOR.... iF YOU WANT TO GET YOUR CAR BACK WITH NO WINDSHIELD WASHER TANK, DIFFERENT COLORED FRONT TURN SIGNAL LIGHTS, THE HOOD-RELEASE HANDLE AND CABLE LAYING ON THE FLOOR, THE $250 FAN YOU INSTALLED ON THE A/C HANGING BY A THREAD AND RUBBING A HOLE IN THE COOLING CORE, AND THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHTS ON (BECAUSE OF A SPEED SENSOR CABLE ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE CAR FROM THE REPAIRS) .... IF YOU WANT TO WAIT ANOTHER THREE WEEKS WHILE THE OWNER, GRADY FOSHEE, TRIES TO GET THE INSURANCE CO. TO PAY MORE MONEY TO FIX THE SPEED SENSOR, AND THEN TAKE IT TO A REAL MECHANIC WHO DiSCOVERS THE SPEED SENSOR CABLE HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED AND AND STUFFED INSIDE THE PARKING LIGHT WELL.... AND, FINALLY,.... IF YOU WANT TO MAKE THIRTY OR FORTY PHONE CALLS LISTENING TO EXCUSES FROM THE OWNER WHILE ALL THIS HAPPENS.... THEN, BY ALL MEANS GO TO ROAD RUNNER!! Otherwise, SAVE YOURSELF THE AGGRAVATION!

I went to the Firestone on Clock Tower on Sunday, June 29, 2014, to repair a flat tire. After waiting several hours I was informed the tire was not repairable and I would need to purchase a new tire. I was asked to wait while they looked at the other tires and was soon told I needed to purchase two new tires. I was also informed that I had lifetime alignment and after the tires where installed the alignment would be complete. I ended up at the Firestone from approximately 2pm until 5:10 pm but the alignment was not completed. I told the location I had a 6pm appointment and could not be late. You would think 3 hours is adequate time to aligned and replace tires after they informed me I needed two new tires. I was told to come back later and the alignment would be handled. On Wednesday, I had work done at the VW Dealership and was informed the two obviously new tires were installed incorrectly: instead of being placed on the same side (driver side) they should have been placed opposite each other for even wear. The dealership strongly recommended I go back and have the people that sold me and installed the tires do it correctly. When I said it was done at Firestone, the dealer's service technician was shocked that the work was done so poorly. On Thursday, July 3, I called the Firestone on Clock Tower and asked about their availability to fix the problems caused by their work on Sunday. I was warned the work may take 2.5 hours. I agreed to the time and went in at 1:06pm. After waiting 2.5 hours, I was told they could not rotate the new tires from the driver's side to the back because I purchased directional tires. That the location of the tires was put in that location because it was easiest for the technician (he did not have to take off all four tires) and the alignment should have been done on Sunday. I am surprised that a location that has the posted quote on honesty being a key to doing business would give the excuse of doing what is easiest for the technician and not best for the vehicle, tires, or the consumer. I convinced the service manager that perhaps because I purchased the tires based on the recommendation of his store, he should figure out how to get the tires in the best location for the vehicle and for tire wear. After waiting until 4pm, I was informed the key to my wheel lock was stripped. Okay -- lucky for me I keep the spare. Although it does make me wonder what they were doing to my car between 1:06 and 4pm. After the tires were rotated, I was given the, in the service manager's mind, great deal of $20 off the alignment. Funny, because the guy on Sunday told me it was included with the work. I paid the additional $65ish amount. Happy to be free of the misery that is Firestone Clock Tower, only to get into my car with the oily fingerprints on the inside doorhandle, brakehandle, and passenger seat. Wonderful! Just wonderful. When I called to report this additional issue and got the laughing Peggy on the line - she would not listen to my issue. I lost my cool - I think I kept it as long as I could but 4+ hours on Sunday, 4+ hours today, and over $350 later, all I have to show for my "flat tire" is an extreme hassle, two new tires that I truly doubt I need, and dirty car upholstery. I called the corporate office and was transferred by Angie Jones to the front office so that I could file a complaint with Consumer Tire Affairs. I was on hold for over 33 minutes before I gave up and disconnected the call. I guess that is the way Firestone treats customers.

Our bus fleet was taken to George Cox Automotive in November 2013 one would not start and the other had a hydraulic leak.. it took them until 12-6-13 to get back to us and say that one of the buses would need a part that is 2,800 for the hydraulic leak and made us put down a deposit and the other bus was not worked on yet. During this time our company is Out Of Business we tried to contact COX spoke with David COX, Paul COX and Andrew all giving us the run around they started to look at the other bus and said they don't know how to do it but would require us to pay $900 for that bus while we waited 7-months for the part to come in for the hydraulic leak which we had to call every week to get a update none were given from COX. In June 2014 they finally contacted us to say the hydraulic leak is fixed we sent out drivers to grab the bus and had to pay over $5,000 for the hydraulic leak and $900 and have to tow out our bus and they dismantlement all the wiring so we have it in a yard now completely sabotaged buy Cox! After picking up the hydraulic leak bus is began to leak once again we had to take it back to Cox to a angry little man Paul Cox The son of David Cox who basically told us to take it and use our own smarts that MF!!! Stay Far Away From Cox Automotive !!!!!!!

I have been a customer at Don’s Auto for 15-20 years. On Dec. 15, my car had a breakdown which required a multi-day, multi-thousand dollar repair. Don could not complete this huge repair before his shop closed for winter break between Christmas and New Year’s. I considered going to another shop, but a friend had agreed to loan me a car, so I Ieft my car at Don’s while he was closed. I anticipated that it would be first-in-line for service when he opened on Jan. 2. Don’s shop was swamped when he reopened on the 2nd and he chose to service other customers ahead of me. On Jan. 8 I had to return the loaned car and get a rental. I sent an email, Don replied and explained his policy: “In the time that removing, dismantling, assembling and reinstalling this engine requires, we could keep 15-20 other cars on the road.” I replied and literally begged Don to work on my car. Don defended his policy but agreed to start work on my car the next day. I should have left it at that, but in my reply I unfortunately used the words “It’s not right” in reference to his prioritizing other customers ahead of me. Don wrote back that he was reassembling my car and I could pick it up to take it to another shop. I drove the 25 miles into town to speak to Don personally, so he could hear my voice when I said that I wasn’t accusing him of being unethical. (Don is very ethical, but I believe he is wrong about the issue of prioritizing and that he has problems with communication.) I even apologized to Don, not because I thought I was wrong, but because I felt sorry for him seeing the state that he was in. He was locked in his own world and determined to show me that he would not deal with a customer who said that he did things that weren’t right. On Jan. 10, after waiting since before Christmas for Don to work on my car, I had my car towed to another shop. Don did not charge me anything.
