Honest and fair…read more Thought I had issues with transmission as I felt a 'thump' a couple seconds after pressing on the accelerator from a stand still but no so much going down the road and accelerating. My vehicle make/model/year is known to have transmission issues around 150k miles. A/C was working intermittently. Worked fine for the first few minutes of driving and then would turn off automatically. When it turned off, I would press the button, and the light would blink three times, and the a/c would not turn on. Online search resulted in several possibilities that created this problem. On Tuesday, the engine overheated as I was driving on 281. Tried all the normal stuff but overheated again within two miles. At this point, being stuck on the side of 281, I decided to get it to a repair shop. I first called Hendrix; however, they could not get to my vehicle for about 7 days as they were backed up. I then called Gear Guys and they said it would be about 5 days before they could take a look as they were backed up with work. My friends recommended Ritchie Automotive (they have used them for 15+ years). Called Ritchie Automotive, explained the situation and that it was my only vehicle. I had it towed to their shop and they looked at it on Wednesday. Called me with the repair quote and started work that day. It was ready on Thursday. Turned out to be a problem with the motor mounts and not the transmission. There was a very small crack in the radiator that allowed the coolant to leak out slowly so it was not noticeable (like a broken radiator hose would be). This caused the engine to overheat which in turn, cause the AC to turn off. Very pleased with the level of customer service, the work, the fairness in pricing and the honesty! Ritchie Automotive will be my 'go to' for any future repairs that I can't (or simply do not want to) fix myself. For what it is worth, they are a Christian based company.

I called because I'm looking for a new mechanic long-term for all of my vehicles, I simply called to inquire about oil changes, and do they do any paint jobs for vehicles. I wanted to know if this was a competent and professional company or not so I asked about the size of staff. His response was, "why are you asking all these questions" Are you serious !!!!! Where did customer service go because this younger generation doesn't have it !!!! Ivan seriously needs to either clean house or whip his staff into some professional shape and get rid of this defensive demeanor. Not a problem though, if they don't want my business, their competitors will. Thank you Full Service Automotive for showing the un-professionalism upfront and ahead of time so I didn't waste my money nor time with you guys.

After more than five years of taking my vehicles to Brady's Automotive, I'm very disappointed to…read moresay I won't be returning. My most recent experience was completely different from the level of service I had come to expect. I felt the work was rushed, my concerns were dismissed, and the customer service was rude and unprofessional. As a long-time customer, I expected better communication and to feel like my concerns mattered. Instead, I left feeling unheard and undervalued. Trust is one of the most important qualities in an auto repair shop, and unfortunately, I no longer have that trust. After more than five years of loyalty, it's disappointing that things ended this way. I hope Brady's Automotive takes this feedback seriously and improves the way they communicate with and treat their customers.

I just have to share yet another fabulous experience with Main Street automotive in Bandera Texas…read more I'll be honest... my trust in automotive shops was 0.0%, maybe even into the negative numbers. Definitely negative experiences. As a short background, I had a Nissan Xterra that sat for nearly 2 years of my driveway, because no one in Bandera could seem to pinpoint what issues were. I even had one shop tell me to "drive it until the wheels fell off", completely, disregarding the fact that this is my only transportation and my safety, and sometimes life, depend upon it. When I totaled my Ranger, I had been so impressed with the work that Main Street had done on it, that I took a huge leap of faith and put the total money into repairing all the mystery ailments of the Xterra. As a surprise for me, the mystery ailments weren't at all a surprise to Main Street and they fixed it beautifully. I always get my oil changed there as they do a bumper-to-bumper review of everything and I'm telling you these people do not tell you you need something that you don't. They will tell you if they see something that you can expect might need attention so you're not blindsided, unlike the other auto shop. They care about my safety. They did me so right on my Xterra when I was just in the worst spot ever. If you want an auto shop that you can honestly trust, I can't recommend them enough. If you live in Bandera, they are on 16 like you're heading to Medina on your left across from K and M auto. They are open on weekdays. They have quite a number of bays so if you make an oil change appointment with you they get you done quick. My Xterra has 222,000 miles on it. It's running better today than when I bought it at 170,000 miles. Thank you, Main Street!!

Let me tell you about my last trip to Lester's Automotive Repair, where they might as well have a…read moreneon sign that reads, "Why yes, we really are that good!" The last time I walked into a place that felt as comfy as their waiting room, I was at my grandma's house, and she was trying to feed me 'home-cooked' chicken casserole (which, by the way, looked suspiciously like it came out of a can but was delicious nonetheless). But back to Lester's: the waiting room! It's practically a mini-spa. Those Padded chairs while very worn are so cozy, I half-expected a massage therapist to pop out and rub my shoulders while I sipped on their free coffee. I was so relaxed, I almost forgot I'd come in to get an alignment with an appointment I just made minutes before I arrived. Now let's talk about the experts at Lester's. These honest mechanics are like the Gandalf of auto repair: They don't just wave their wrenches around and mumble spells; they actually *listen*., devise a good plan and then execute your decisions about how and what you want done do your vehicle. I firmly believe that if anyone rolled in with a "check engine" light, instead of trying to convince a customer to replace their entire engine (which, you know, might as well have been made of gold), they would be honest enough to explain that it was just a loose gas cap. Also, scheduling an appointment? Easy-peasy. The last time I had such a smooth experience was when I hydroplaned my car on black ice going 45 down a hill in a snow covered icy countryside's back road. But I digress. They get you in and out faster than teenagers clear a plate full of pizza. And not once did I feel like they were trying to pull a fast one on me with pricing. I was standing dumbfounded saying, "Is that all? Are you sure you don't want me to pay extra for that whole honesty thing because the guy up the street wanted almost double and you are also charging me what you quoted me at the start? Are you sure that is the price?" In short, if you want your car fixed without being bamboozled, and would like a waiting room where you can consider napping instead of scrolling through sad social media posts, head on over to Lester's Automotive Repair. Just remember, unlike my old jokes, this place *really* delivers! P.S. Why did the mechanic sleep under the car? Because he wanted to get up oily in the morning! Seriously though, one of the best auto mechanic shops in the area. You can't go wrong here!
