They needed to replace the plug which had been stripped bare and after going to pick up a new one, replaced it for an additional charge of $8.00. I'm accustomed to Texas, which has higher rates on auto work so it was a pleasant surprise! And it's a 5 minute drive from my new home. Highly Recommend.

If I had to give a one word review it would be: integrity. Call it a hunch if you will; my experience with them has been a couple of light maintenance visits, and some very valuable diagnostic information. As well as a number of visits to their drive through car wash. I've quickly gained confidence in their service and their advice, and I'd highly recommend them.

Eric the owner put a new master cylinder in and said there was a lot of build up on one rotor. Took care of all of it and now it drives great and no more high pitched noise. They were able to get me in the same day. They were very friendly and honest and upfront. I would definitely recommend if you want an honest mechanic to come to Baker Road automotive. A lot of places will rip you off in this place is very honest. They actually have a sign up in their lobby that says Baker Road automotive is committed to an ethical auto repair. I can see they really do care. Thanks again, Eric and the whole team!

Unfortunately they run about 15-20% higher in costs compared to others. I never feel like they are ripping me off in terms of over selling or recommending things that aren't needed.

He sold his shop because of health problems, but he at the time was the "best and most honest mechanic" I had encountered. I am glad there are still a few great mechanics around like Dave and Brian. Thanks, guys. Jim

On this day, me and my boyfriend were driving casually as we began to notice a burning rubber smell…read morebefore quickly realizing that smoke was coming out from under the hood. Neither of us know much about car maintenance, but we immediately pulled off to the side of the road on the intersection between Hwy 7 and Shady Oak Rd. Not five minutes into pulling over, a very generous woman who looked to be in her mid-twenties, wearing glasses, and was driving a dope blue car which I believe was a Toyota FJ60/62 (?) Either way, she dropped her dog off and told us if we were still there she would help us out. She came back just a few minutes later and picked us up and brought us to the O'Reilly just a few minutes away. We told her about this being the second time this has happened and she gave us great advice about our beater of a Ford Escape and how we should get a diagnostic test, check our oil dipstick a lot more frequently than we currently do, and to possibly check if our coolant had a leakage. Before she dropped us off, she told us how her father runs Expedition Autoworks and that it would be worth checking out. I've never once heard of this place as I don't live near the area, but the next time I need car maintenance I will absolutely check out Expedition Autoworks knowing the kindness that woman showed me and my boyfriend today. I wish I would've caught her name, but knowing that there's family of the person who helped us today, I will definitely make the drive and take my business to Expedition Autoworks.

Recently I took it in for an oil change, tire rotation and general service. I don't drive a lot because I work from home, so it was a day or so later that I noticed - when they removed the oil change sticker they had put on my windshield at the last visit, they completely fucked up the tint on my windshield. Then they just slapped another sticker over it, like nothing had happened lol! I called them immediately and they asked me to email them a photo, which I did later that evening. I got a reply back that they had received the photo and would get back to me in a day or two. A day or two passes and I heard nothing. So I reach back out and let them know I had not received a response. Then another few days pass, and I reach out again. So not only did they not PROACTIVELY admit their fuckup - which I get it, shit happens, but you have to be professional when it does and let your customer know what you fucked up and how you're going to fix it. And sometimes there's just a bad apple who doesn't represent your business well. So they put the onus on me to bring their fuckup to their attention, and now they are conveniently ignoring me. My last email to them was to let them know that I will be pursuing legal action in small claims court if I don't hear from them again in a few days. Because getting the entire tint job redone is going to set me back probably $5-600 with labor.
