Although he did fix a simple problem. I was traveling and did not have tools to do myself. Believe all the reviews about rudeness, in 45 years of doing business, I have never dealt with someone as bad as this. I am a service technician and have never treated a customer the way he does. He is where every service manager needs to send their techs to demonstrate how NOT to treat customers. BTW, cash only. UPDATE...the business owner replied to this review, apparently he pissed someone else off because I paid in full, money was not even an issue, had to pull cash from ATM next door (because the one in front of the shop is non functional) This is a different customer, I was not rude, I was silently pissed. He did not stop working on else's vehicle to work on mine, after waiting 3 hours with no estimate on time on even looking at mine, I was literary on the phone with another shop a mile away when he finally freed up. The ONLY reason I used this shop is because it was the closest one where I broke down and the lady who answered the phone said wouldn't be a problem. After dealing with this, I would not even go back for warranty work if I needed it. read more

Chris is unique mechanic, he is a great conversationalist and is informative with everything he does to you car. He also works pretty fast so you won't be waiting or have to leave your car like they do for dealerships. I am definitely coming to Chris's auto repair for life! read more

I did my research and checked out the reviews on this place. I went on a Wednesday by Saturday my ac was not working again. on Wednesday he stated that I may have to end up changing my AC belt, but I was good for right now. So I'm thinking that is the issue and wanted to see what was going on. It is a week and two days later that I can get back there because of my work schedule in their business hours. I was off today and I went to see what was going on with my AC unit in my truck first thing this morning. I spoke with his wife and told her that I came last Wednesday and that Saturday that my AC went out. She asked if I wanted to leave the truck and I told her that I wasn't able to leave I just wanted to see what was going on with the AC. I pulled around to the back and Chris ask me is t blowing at all. I told him no, it is not. Then he proceeded to tell me to get out the car so he can look and see what is going on because he has that he has ish he needs to do today. I asked him who he was talking to and why he was being rude to me. I said that you did not and I just spent $160 on service and I'm trying to find out what is going on and why it isn't working. Tell me it's going to be $200 to fix something on the truck and I said sir, you haven't even looked at my truck to see what is going on. He stated that I do not have a warranty on the things that he previously. I told him that you're not listening to anything I'm saying you're just being rude. If there is something else going on that needs to be fixed I understand I have to pay for that but I'm trying to see what is going on. Why isn't the AC working anymore? He said, do you have a receipt or anything and I proceeded to show him the receipt that was in my glove compartment. He continue to be rude and then he opened the passenger door and beat on something under the glove compartment and it seat blowing. I said wow this is crazy and I did not appreciate him being rude to me and you want me to continue doing business with you . He said I'm sorry I was rude with you in a sarcastic way and I said no you're not sir because it was no reason for all that in the first place, but what I will do is put a review on you and your company and I proceeded to leave. read more

I'm from out of town & my air conditioning compressor clutch froze. Chris gave me a fair estimate on the compressor fix. In 1 day Chris completed my repair on top of that he reduced his initial estimate because my system was clean. If you want a top notch mechanic that is honest & forth right in repairing your vehicle, then take it to Chris. He has a lifetime customer in me. "The best auto repair shop in Burleson! read more

After dealing with different auto repair places spending money and still couldn't fix the problem I found Chris Auto and they were able to fix my car at a reasonable price. I also took my daughter in laws and granddaughter cars snd Chris and his mechanics were able to repair their cars at a reasonable cost. Extremely honest with great customer service. We won't take our cars anywhere else. You can relax in reclining chairs while you wait. read more

The rudest and most unprofessional mechanic I've ever had the displeasure of working with. Thank you for wasting my time and telling me "good luck finding someone to fix that." Good luck staying in business if that's how you treat all of your customers buddy. read more

Great help with any questions you have and timely service. Very good work done. It's worth your timw

I made an appointment to take my sons car in. It has over 100,000 miles so I didn't want to take it to a dealership where I'm charged out the nose. Chris replaced the radiator in just a few hours for a very fair price. He fixed a few other items on the car too and we were on our way with cold air and a working vehicle! Honest and efficient. read more

Chris has been working on all my vehicles for I'm guessing about 15 years. He recently did some A/C work on my Chevy Traverse. He has always treated me fairly and hope to use him for another 15 years. He talks straight and does what he says he is going to do. Thanks, Chris! Pat Pitts read more

ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW!!! I recently relocated back to Burleson, my brakes had been squeaking and a good friend of mine referred me to Chris, He told me he was the most honest mechanic around, he also warned me that he is upfront, straight forward, NO BS, he comes off sounding harsh and he doesn't waste your or his time with small talk. I stopped by Chris Auto and explained I had my brakes checked by Midas in Florida where I was told it would cost $1,048.00 to replace front and back Rotors and Brake Pads, since I could only afford to replace front at the time I knew once I got to Texas, I was going take care of the back ones. (I told Chris this so he would know I already knew what was wrong and how much to expect for the repairs) Chris had 3 other cars ahead of me and said if I wanted to leave it, I explained I just arrived 2 days prior and had no one to come pick me up, he said ok he would get to it but no guarantee as to the time, I said that's fine I can wait. Thirty minutes later he came upfront got my keys took it for a test drive came back checked underneath and he showed me there was nothing wrong with my brake pads or rotors...WOW!!!!!! I was shocked he knew I was expecting to pay to replace them and yet he told me they were fine and did not need to be replaced, when I asked why they were squeaking he said because your car is an older auto (2015). AGAIN WOW!!! I asked what he would charge to replace brakes and rotors it was less than half of what Midas was charging me. He only charged me $20 for the time he spent checking it out. I am a single woman and have been ripped off my entire life by mechanics so whenever possible I had my brother take my car into shops when something needed to be done. CHRIS AUTO IS THE MOST HONORABLE MECHANIC I HAVE EVER MET AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. However I recommend you arrange to leave your car as he is extremely busy his phone must have rung 20 times within the hour I was there. read more

Fixed the issue in 10 minutes. Very reasonable and on point. Was open at 0900 as advertised.

Was told my alternator was bad from Jiffy Lube attendant. Would cost $400. And some change. Went to Chris's place and he found out it was the battery.Took care of me and I was in and out in less than a couple of hours(had to have battery delivered). While I was there five other customers shouted up with problems and he took care of them while we waited for my battery to be delivered. All this is done by himself.....I'll be back read more

I would give this place no stars if possible. I was with a friend whose Dodge diesel began overheating and she wanted to find out why. She called this place after reading "glowing" reviews and we headed over. He told her it sounded like a new fan motor was needed. He said he would order it from O'Reilly auto parts and it would be waiting. Once we got there he proceeded to climb into her truck covered in grease and kept redlining the engine. I noticed the fan was on and running perfectly. There was a small dirt dauber nest on the radiator so he grabbed a water hose and tried washing it off. He did nothing other than get grease in the drives seat, redline the engine, speak in a disrespectful tone to my female friend, wash a nest off the radiator and complain that we decided to not allow him to change a part that still worked. Yeah, even though the fan motor kicked in like it was supposed he still wanted to replace it because, "You have to just start replacing stuff until you find the right one" since he didn't have the tools to run diagnostics on diesel motors. He got pissed off because we wouldn't let him "work" on it and demanded $40 because that 10 minutes he spent doing nothing ain't free. Stay as far away from this place as possible. It pisses me off every single time I drive by that place. He is a true shade-tree mechanic that has no business dealing with the public. He is unethical and, in my opinion, a scam artist who tries to take advantage of women. By the way, I fixed the truck by actually listening to it. It turns out it was a $35 thermostat that took 15 minutes to replace and not the $160 fan motor plus whatever his labor charges are. I'm sure the thermostat would have been the very last he would have thought to check since it is the cheapest, quickest and easiest part to change. STAY AWAY FROM THIS GUY AND HIS SO-CALLED GARAGE! Thank you for making it through this review! read more

This guy does fast and excellent work. He did a brake job on my husbands car. He was much cheaper than NTB. Then after we left he called to tell us that he was able to warrantee our brake pads and that we were owed an $80 refund. He could have kept the $80 and never told us. But he did not. He is an honest guy and does great work I highly recommend. read more

The compressor on my wife's vehicle went out, and we took it to another shop and got what we considered to be a considerably high quote for repair. We read the reviews for Chris's Auto Repair & A/C on Yelp and decided to bring it into Chris because he seemed honest and was close to my home. When I first brought the car into Chris on 7/16/2018, I intended to get a second opinion, to see if the cost of repairs were aligned with the first quote. Chris quoted me a fair price for repairs, completed it in a timely matter and called me to pick up the car. I drove the car home and could tell the a/c was blowing cooler after the repairs but wasn't getting as cold as it did before. The next day my wife called Chris to see if there was anything else that needed to be done with the vehicle, due to the air not be as cold and to get clarification on notes left on the receipt stating "that there wasn't any warranty for repairs and that the compressor was changed ONLY." Chris appeared to be offended that my wife was asking him questions, which any honest and reliable mechanic would oblige to answer, in spite of this she thanked him for his work on the car and ended the conversation. I reached out to Chris myself on 7/19/2019 to thank him for his work and to inform him of the air only be cool vs. cold after driving it around and asked I if he would be willing to look at the car again, and even offered to pay him. Here it is 7/22 and still no acknowledgment of my concerns, and needless to say this is causing me to have to take the car to another shop. I was happy with the work up to that point and as the honest guy he says he is and asserts to be, I would expect a better level of customer service. I was prepared to leave a positive review before this, but as a man I can't have my wife driving a vehicle that isn't cooling properly when it's over 110 degrees outside. Update 7/24/2018 Took the car to another shop, the freon was low and ac needed to be recharged (we were advised that all this was done at Chris's, clearly it wasn't). Ever since then the AC has been cooling at a lower temperature with no issues (knock on wood). read more

If you're a woman you will not be taken seriously and will be over charged. Maybe send in your husband/boyfriends/brothers if you want a better experienc. Or just choose a different place read more

Great shop, great auto service and solid customer service. No sugar coating what needs to be done, fair pricing. Thanks so much!

This auto shop is awesome. I came in today with a problem with the AC in my 93 camry, and the mechanic fixed it up in about an hour! My car was low in refrigerant (which is what I figured), but the mechanic ran all the appropriate tests to make sure I didn't have a leak or damaged parts. As he was working on my car, he was talking me through exactly what he was doing. This helped me feel reassured that he wasn't breaking other parts of my car. Overall, I had an awesome experience and my AC is definitely working again. The price was a bit steep, but given the rarity in finding a store that would service cars that only use R-12 refrigerant, I think the price was right. I definitely recommend this place! read more

Went there for the first time, after reading reviews. My A/C in my pickup was blowing hot air. The dealership had a two week date just to look at it. Chris got it right in and two & half hours later it was finished. The A/C blows very cold air and about $150 cheaper than the dealership. Cash are check only, no credit cards. read more

This is a shop you can trust. Chris is honest, fast and he knows what he is doing. He doesn't try to sell stuff that you don't need.

If I could give have given him a "0", I would. I went to him to repair my struts and my drive belt. He showed me the a/c unit and told me that "this your struts". I couldn't believe it. He also told me that he does his own "diagnostics", as if he's better than "Toyota's CERTIFIED TECHNICIANS". Maybe he's certified too, but ladies... please beware. If you know about cars like I do, whether it's a little bit or not. Keep your mouth shut and let THEM make a fool out of themselves. You can always call them on out on it later. read more

As a woman I'm always apprehensive about taking my car in for anything other than oil change, tires or inspection. I always feel like I'm getting the run around. Well I never got that feeling when I went to Paul's. Corey showed me exactly what was wrong and really explained it. I would have to have a replacement part and the first place they called they said that was too expensive and they would look around. I looked around also because he explained what I needed and luckily I found the part at a local dealership and took it to them and now I'm in the cool. I would recommend them to any and everyone. I couldn't have gotten that kind of service from a dealership and it's hard to find repairs you can trust. The price was great too. read more

I had Chris replace the clutch in my son's Hyundai Tiburon. He quoted me a very good price so we dropped the car off. He called back to let me know that it would be more than he quoted due to the type of clutch the Tiburon has. No big deal, I had read about that online so I knew it to be true. He still had the best price in town so I went with it. The next day when I was supposed to pick it up he told me he'd need another day with it. The new clutch wasn't working and he had to take it all apart again. Again, no big deal, I wanted it done right. We picked the car up, it ran and shifted great, so I thought all was well. Until I opened the hood a couple of days later. All of the shrouds covering the top of the engine and battery we're missing. I called Chris and he said no problem, just come by anytime and he'd install them. I sent my son over to get them installed and a little bit later he came back with 1 of the covers and a handful of bolts. Chris just had it over to him, told him the covers weren't necessary and sent him on his way! There were 4 or 5 more plastic pieces that Chris didn't even give to him! As soon as I found this out I took my son and his car back to Chris's. I told Chris that I need him to install the rest of the covers. He met us in front of his shop a few minutes later with the parts and handed them to me along with a handful of bolts and clips. I repeated that he needed to install the covers. That's when he informed me that the covers are not necessary and that he would not reinstall them. I was fairly incredulous at this point and I asked him if he was serious and he said yes, the covers are purely cosmetic and he refused reinstall them. He walked away. We took the parts and went home. My son and I reinstalled them in less than 15 minutes. For 15 minutes of work Chris has lost me and my family, and anyone else I can convince to never darken his door, as customers forever. The bottom line here is that Chris spent twice the amount of time replacing the clutch than he should have, rightly did not charge me for any additional labor, and did not want to spend a minute longer working on my son's car. Up to that point I was very impressed with his honesty and thought I had found my new mechanic. But refusing to replace a few simple plastic shrouds, not matter how unnecessary he thought they were, destroyed any chance of me ever using him again. read more

Great work, great guy! Honest & does NOT try to oversell repairs. He came highly recommended to me a few years. That year he got my daughter's car right in, put in a new A/C for her & it cost her less for her 2005 Toyota than I paid years ago for a new A/C on my 1995 Gran Prix (done by someone else). Yesterday, I recommended him to a friend. Friend didn't want to spend hundreds to repair his A/C in his older truck, but wanted it repaired if it was a minor fix. Chris was able to get the A/C running for only $160. He warned it may only be temporary fix, could work several months or just weeks. But my friend was happy he didn't try to oversell on a complete fix, but repaired it long enough to give him time to look at a newer truck; without having to rush to buy. Yes, Chris charges a $100 to look at your vehicle but then he applies it to your repair. It was worth it to my friend to spend the $100 to find out what was wrong. Friend could then decide if he wanted to spend more to repair or not. Turned out he only had so spend an additional $60. Any other guy would have tried to sell him a complete new A/C & won't have bothered to get the A/C work, even if it may only be temporary. GOOD JOB, CHRIS, TODAY ON MY FRIEND'S TRUCK. AND A FEW YEARS AGO FOR MY DAUGHTER!! I'll see you when my 'ole 2009 A/C has problems. read more

He fixed the problem and the service was quick and the price was reasonable. Would recommend to friends. Didn't try to tell me problems that didn't exist. Actually got me out of one thing cheaper than I had originally thought it would be. He replaced one turn signal lever that had snapped off right before I sold my car. Good mechanic and a good person. Would definitely recommend again. read more

What an experience! Chris does what he says. Recently had an engine light come on and went to Chris. He told me what it was and what it would cost. I got the car back 45 minutes after I dropped it off. I will take all of my vehicular maintence/repairs to Chris. A true find. A mechanic that talks to you and not at you. read more

Chris has been my mechanic for going on 6 years now, I have trusted him with all of my cars and Trucks. His shop is everything I look for in a mechanic's shop. He is affordable and wont kill you on the prices and does the job right and if your like me and want to know exactly what is going on he will take the time and explain the situation. I sent my mother, sister and friends to Chris.. And wont take my cars anywhere else read more

I went into this place over a year ago and had a horrible experience. I wrote a bad review then, but I guess it was taken down somehow. I drove all the way from Euless to go here because my sister had been taking her car there and she said he was nice and fair. I just wanted a tune up, he said that I had a cracked bolt or something like that (which I'm not claiming I didn't) but, he didn't tell me that he wasn't going to be able to fix it that day! I ended up being stranded at my grandmother's house for the night (not that I don't love spending time with my Nanny). The next day I called wanting to know when my car was going to be done and they said around noon. At one I called and they said three. At four I called, the mom said she didn't know. I said it wasn't fair that they didn't tell me they didn't have the part BEFORE, because I could have just gotten it repaired closer and not been stranded in Burleson. The mom says that she can't talk to me anymore, and I say that I have a right to know when and if my car is going to be done because I don't live in Burleson. I was not yelling or cussing or anything mind you, and the next thing I know Chris gets on the phone and says, "What do you want bi*&^"! I couldn't believe it! I thought he was joking or thought I was someone else, except he followed it up with "You made my momma cry". I said, I'm sorry if your mom is crying, I didn't say anything rude, I just want to know when my car is going to be done. He then told me to pick it up THE NEXT DAY at one and to bring cash!!! I was so shaken up. My mom and Nanny heard the whole thing through my phone and they were actually scared for me! My mom wanted me to call the police and have them escort me to the shop, but I said that was a little extreme. Anyway, when I came in Chris's parents actually had the nerve to be preachy to me and said they'd pray for me!!! I told them they should pray for their own son because he's the one calling customers the b word while holding their car ransom!!! It was just crazy and I'll never go anywhere near there again read more
