Frank of course I knew you would have your side to tell. That's why I offered for those that would…read morelike to listen to my recordings and I will personally show other stuff. As for my financials you couldn't afford to cover me for most of anything. You're supposed to fix the car THEN i pay you. I was hesitant every time you asked me to pay for stuff. Here's another red flag for anyone looking to hire Frank. On my recording you came to ask for payment because you were late and having problem paying your taxes. I told you over and over I didn't want to take you to court because I am not that guy. You lie about the transmission issue. You didn't cover squat or offer the towing out of your pocket or pay for extra oil to be generous. It's because I was direct with you and. It happy and told you I would be reviewing this kind of post. This is why you flipped and started offering me these things because you knew I was going to take you to court. You offered free labor on the transmission as a way to negotiate with me to keep from going to court. I kept record as I said of you and I talking when you offered immediately to have my car towed. I have a completely well recorded and documented list of other things I will not share but in court that show you dropped the ball over and over. No I did not want to pay you money until jobs were completed . I showed pics of how bad my car was when I came to pick it up. The hat is why you had it detailed as you absolutely should. I'm done here and will update after court. I've asked you over and over the last couple weeks for a detailed receipt of charges and repairs and you've yet to give me one. What kind of business can't give an actual normal receipt of repairs. This is another red flag .

I brought my car in to Manchaca Service Center for them to check out a sweet & sour smell that I…read morecouldn't figure out. I thought it might be antifreeze. They did a full inspection of all the parts that might be causing it and told me what they checked but didn't find anything. They didn't charge me anything. I don't know if that's common, but I was very grateful that they were so diligent, as it could've been anything that might've caused me trouble later on. So I recommend these guys! Later that day, I noticed the smell again and on a hunch I checked the spare wheel well and sure enough -- on top was wet paper bags and an almost empty bottle of distilled water with a leak in the bottom!

I was already not going to patron them again, and then I got in my car and found this bit of propaganda. Leaving trash in my car is rude, and this is an invasion of privacy. I paid you to fix my car, not to take it upon yourself to evangelize me.

I wanted my break pads to be looked and at Next Gear Auto was a fraction of the price and they came to me! Both things felt like such a treat. During that appointment Next Gear didn't make any changes aside from what we agreed to and did a full inspection of my vehicle with other things I might not be aware of. I took that list home with me and reviewed it made another appointment to get other things fixed. This was a great experience and Next Gear was very transparent in pricing and I'll certainly come back to them.

My husband and I have been customers of Juke with our two vehicles for typical maintenance and…read morethey've always been reliable, so when my brakes suddenly went out on my Jeep, I went to Juke for help. It was easy to make the appointment to have the Jeep towed in and they got back to me by the end of the day with the diagnostic. My brake line had blown out and they were going to replace it. The next day they called to tell me there were no brake lines available for my Jeep anywhere with MOPAR, or any other manufacturer. People in my situation are all waiting months for these things on back order. Most shops would have probably told me to come tow this Jeep out of their way until a brake line was available. Not Juke! They thought outside the box and let me know a hydraulic shop they work with could build the part for me, and it would only be $80 more! Perfect! Even though they had to run around town with these brake lines, and rely on another shop to hunt down parts and fabricate custom brake lines for me, they had my Jeep back to me after just 6 business days! The other great thing is Miguel kept me updated the whole time and I never had to worry about if my vehicle was being taken care of. The people at Juke actually care about their customers and I recommend them to everyone I know.

BEST part was I had a huge dent in the front fender that I figured I'd pay to fix later this year yet upon pick up the dent was gone!? (Matt?) worked on my car and went completely out of his way to fix the dent. Total cloud 9 jaw drop! Sarah, Forrest, the gentlemen with fun colored hair... everyone is helpful and the biz is so well structured and efficient. No one likes spending on a broken down car but somehow I always walk out of here feeling like my car should break down again just so I can come back lol

'Who can find an honest mechanic? For his worth is far above rubies!'…read more My honest, skillful mechanic of 40 years retired--he earned it--and I was cast adrift bouncing between Dumb & Dumber....and the fast buck artists out there waiting for you. But a tow-truck driver pointed me to Allies Automotive: I had told him what I was paying Lamb's, and he said 'OMG' and took me to Chris. And I hope he doesn't retire soon! Chris is 'of service' to people, not merely extracting money from easy marks. When Chris fixes it, it stays fixed. He has kept my 16-year-old Toyota Sienna spinning like a top. When you see his place on Slaughter Creek Dr. it looks like the Professor's workshop in 'Back To the Future'. Also a time-warp into 1970s Austin that somehow hasn't been developed out of existence yet by land butchers. Maybe Chris should be in the Bible.

Even without a special in effect, their prices are competitive to other shops that are performing questionable quality work. I trust them to take good care of my vehicles and always return.
