Id like to share my terrible experience with National Automotive Service Center in nacogdoches on…read moreUniversity Drive. I urge others to be cautious and consider these actions before entrusting them with your property. Approximately two months ago, I entrusted my vehicle to the National Automotive Service Center for repairs for a sound coming from engine. I was quoted $2,743 and then gave the okay to go ahead with repairs. They were the only ones I called with availability. On 6/25/24, I observed my vehicle parked at Fuzzy's Taco Shop on North Street. I saw the mechanic I previously seen at the service center sitting at the bar, where he was drinking. Upon inspecting my vehicle I discovered vapes and opened vape packages that were not there previously and keys left inside. I confronted the mechanic, instructing him to return my vehicle to the shop, because I didn't authorize the shop to use my vehicle for these purposes. Video evidence of him stating he knew what he was doing and it was illegal. I then reported the incident to higher management (Justin) who initially claimed that the vehicle was being test-driven. I explained that this was not the case, as the vehicle was at the bar with the mechanic. Which by his facial expression, didn't seem like the first time he'd known of this. But first time he got caught by customer. The manager then admitted that he had permitted the mechanic to take my vehicle to his home for lunch. Video evidence of that. The manager advised me to return later to speak with the owner. Both the owner and manager repeatedly (on video) justified their actions by stating that it was common practice for employees to use customers vehicles to run personal errands and obtain lunch. They additionally cracked the coolant case in my vehicle and engine light is on - that was not broken or on beforehand. I did instruct them to not touch my vehicle anymore. I did not trust them and was going to speak with lawyer. (So my vehicle Is no longer under warranty with me doing so). National Automotive also added an additional $300 + fee for machine shop which I was not aware of. Stated they fired employee responsible for incident. At first they did not offer any compensation for my bill for their employees misconduct. Then today (6/28/24) upon speaking with Erin Bailey (Owner) she offered a $100 sfa student discount off my bill and that to them was a satisfactory resolution ... because if I didn't pay the $2,961 after 30 days they'd began process of owning my vehicle. I have been taken advantage of for their negligence and unprofessional behavior. All I have received was attitude from Manager and Owner while handling this. Owner stated she is more concerned with paying her employees then honorably making this right. An employee at Fuzzy's Taco Shop confirmed that the mechanic, Rick Goehry, has been seen on multiple occasions using customers vehicles to visit the bar while on duty. I paid $2,961 to National Automotive for their employee to be intoxicated while joy riding in my property (no telling how many times) while "out for a test drive." But apparently is justifiable because my car no longer makes a noise. Such poor handling from this shop and I urge everyone to not do business here.

They stay very busy due to their quality work, so plan on dropping your car off if possible.

After driving our car, the guy came in and said, it sounds like a Honda issue. That when applying the brakes, it makes a weird sound. I told Ben that a couple bolts from the Caliper bracket had fell out. So we dropped off the car this morning and I called about 1:00 pm. They said the car was ready, we paid CASH $4,000. HOWEVER. OUR CAR IS STILL MAKING THAT WEIRD NOISE WHEN BRAKING. They had the front end apart to R&R the Struts. I guess they figured that the Brake issues wasn't worth worrying about. Just got off the phone with Lee. He seemed surprised as well. And just bring it back? They had it for half a day. The guy who test drove it seemed concerned? Please, someone tell me, What, what am I missing? I even told Ben, while the tires are off, if they could make sure those bolts to the caliper bracket were tight. I do not understand, they knew I had concerns about the brakes! Truths Matter, Leslie

I thought I would at least have to pay for the serpentine belt that broke but no, come pick it up, no charge. No wonder their ratings are so high on Google and social media. I very highly recommend this shop.

I searched all around Lufkin and most places either wouldn't respond or want to deal with the insurance company of the person that hit her. A&B agreed to do the work and help with the insurance company. After a few days I was informed by the insurance company that the car was totaled. I contacted A&B and they got me in quickly to take the remaining items out of the car and I signed it over to them. At this point I thought I was done with them. However, the insurance company tried to mess me over and blame A&B. I stopped back down and asked about what was going on and the owner took the time to explain their billing, what was going on and assured me they would get to the bottom of the issue. The insurance company called me a few days later to reimburse me a little more but I was still out a lot of money for the charges they refused to cover. Keep in mind this is not my insurance company, it is the one who hit my daughter's car. I called A&B with the insurance update and they fought with the insurance company again on my behalf. A&B made sure I received the whole amount due for the car. They stuck with me to the end and went to bat for me when they could have left it alone. While I can't speak personally to their repair work, I can speak of their customer care. Any company willing to put their reputation and money on the line for a customer the way they did for me is well worth it. I can't say Thank You enough.
