After calling what felt like a million auto shops, I called Competent Automotive Services. Although nobody answered initially, Christien called me back within a few minutes. He even offered to come to me to fix the issue because of the safety risks that accompany misfiring cylinders. He fixed the issue quickly, and the price was super reasonable. I would recommend him to anyone in the area! I wish I had such a reliable mechanic back home.

When Randall, the owner, tells you what needs to be done you can trust that he's telling the truth. As a female that really means a lot to me. It's a rather small shop compared to some of the new ones that have recently opened up around him but they always get my car done asap. Randall always makes sure to let me know if there's any problem to let him know. I know he'll make it right. He'll definitely be getting any auto repair work I need done.

These guys know what they are doing and at an affordable price.read more

I discovered Quantum Mechanix probably 10 years ago when we first moved to Mansfield. We had an…read moreissue with our Tahoe and someone I trusted gave us a great word-of-mouth recommendation. Tommy just came through for us again. My son Eric was driving the old Tahoe and started noticing a coolant leak. He diagnosed it as a water pump and we gave Eric the number for Quantum. Tommy took it in, diagnosed it as a shot water pump and gave me a quote with options for replacing with an original Chevy part or a less expensive aftermarket that he knew to be reliable. Frankly, the quote was hundreds less than I expected. I am a fairly decent mechanic and would gladly pay his quoted price. He got the work done the day he was able to diagnose the problem. On time, exactly as quoted and functioning perfectly. I have recommended Quantum to friends for a decade and they all agree that you get honest work done right at a fair price. Everything you need in a mechanic shop!

If you're looking for an honest mechanic who knows what he's doing, look no further. Took my 2006…read moreMonte Carlo SS to the local Arlington Chevrolet dealership figuring since my car is a Chevy, they'd know the most about it. Engine wasn't starting immediately after turning the key. They performed their analysis and recommended a new starter and battery cables, for which they wanted to charge me $1,400+. I previously had the MC there for the same problem and, after $400+ in analysis charges, it was a $20 gas cap. Wanting a second opinion, I scheduled an appointment with Quantum. Due to their high volume of work, I had to wait 2-1/2 weeks, but the wait was well worth it. Tommy, the owner, looked at the battery cables and starter and said there was no problem with them. However, apparently some General Motors vehicles have this starting problem. Not enough fuel is getting to the fuel injectors when the key is turned. He pressure-checked the fuel pump and found it to be the problem. Rather than spending $1,200+, he showed me how to ensure the injectors have enough fuel so the engine will start on the first turn of the key. I've had cars serviced over 50+ years and Tommy is the first mechanic that took his time to fully explain the issue and the solution. He knows what he's doing and most importantly, he's honest. You can't go wrong with Quantum Mechanix.

It really runs good now!! But the issue that stands in the forefront is their tenacity on an issue that most shops would have probably just thrown their arms in the air and gave up. The clock spring for my vehicle went bad, this controls all the electrics on your steering wheel from the horn, cruise, airbag, etc. This should have been a straight forward repair but the part was not available anywhere!!! They searched and searched and the part was not available they even tried the junk yards as well. We finally changed out the steering wheel and got everything I wanted working!! Thanks for not giving up as that would have been the easy thing to do. This small shop will have my business in the future. If you need repairs on your car or truck give this shop a try, you will not be disappointed!!

Sounds too good to be true. It probably is!…read more Car needed an alternator put in. Chloe gave me a verbal quote cheaper than the chain repair shop and said she could get it done today. Just bring it over this morning and we will have it done by 5:00. Sounds like a small locally owned shop that you want to support and do business with right? Quick service and good price! Well, when I dropped the car off at 10:30 she confirmed 5:00 today. At 4:30 I called to see if it was done and she said it's going to take a little longer than I thought but it will be done today. At 5:30 I stopped by and they still hadn't gotten the old one out yet. She said its more complex than I thought but we will get it done before we go home. The car was finally ready at 9:30 pm so I guess give them credit for staying late (ie 2 stars and not 1). On the way home I stopped to get the alternator checked at autozone and they pointed out that the wire to the alternator wasn't even hooked up so it wasn't working properly. So I came home and had to finish the job myself. If it sounds too good to be true. It probably is. So do yourself a favor. Pay the extra money and go somewhere else!!! PS. No written quote, they don't take CC.

He even allowed me to sit at his shop and complete the job in case I was stuck again. Mechanics are not hard to find. Good mechanics are hard to find.
