      Very confused by the good reviews for this place. When I arrived, the employees were having an argument outside. When I finally found my way inside, I explained to them I wanted a 15k mile service done, the technician said "um, I've never heard of that" and walked away. Eventually they did my service and tried to tell me I needed my cabin air filter replaced (which, I didn't. I keep track of the timeline and I'd just had it replaced). I told them I didn't need it replaced and the mechanic attempted to "show" me buildup where there was none, as though I didn't just call them out for lying. And after they did my fuel system flush, they damaged a component in my fuel system that I'm now having to pay $1k to replace at a different shop. I refuse to go back to this shop to have them replace it because I don't want them touching my vehicle again. Oh, AND, they left a tool inside my vehicle (which they've done more than once, I noticed it in other reviews) and left it covered in their greasy handprints. No attention to detail, no follow through. This place sucks.

      The tire with nail

      I never leave reviews, but I'm frustrated with this place. I have been a customer there since I moved to Alamo Ranch in 2015. My husband husband took my car here this morning and after AN HOUR LATER, they tell him they can't fix the hole and that we have to buy FOUR new tires. The tires are not old, and the nail is in a patchable place. We were CLEARLY trying to be scammed. After leaving frustrated, he went to another shop where they patched the hole and sent him on his way. $18 later and they said nothing about the integrity of the tire and they didn't even mention buying a new one. I'm disgusted with this place and will be taking it the BBB. This is it okay!!!

      I had an amazing experience with YD Automotive Mobile Services! I was in the process of looking for…read morea family car and Yousri, the mechanic, went above and beyond by coming out to diagnose the vehicle I was considering. He was extremely honest, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything so I fully understood what was going on before making a decision. On top of that, Yousri was able to fix the AC on my current car something multiple other shops couldn't figure out. That alone says a lot about his skill and experience. Super reliable, professional, and genuinely helpful. I highly recommend YD Automotive Mobile Services and Yousri if you're looking for someone you can truly trust!

      I cannot recommend Y/D Automotive after my experience with their mobile repair service…read more I found them through Google and contacted them for an alternator replacement. I was quoted about $585 for parts and labor. A technician came to my location around 3:00 PM, removed my alternator, then discovered he had brought the wrong replacement part. After checking multiple auto-parts stores, I was told the correct alternator would be about $950 plus $175 installation. Since that was substantially more than the original quote, I declined and asked only that my original alternator be reinstalled and the vehicle returned to the condition it was in before the work began. That did not happen. The technician spent several more hours trying to reinstall the alternator and drive belt but could not get the belt back on. I even spent about an hour trying to assist. Around 10:00 PM I told him to stop for the night. I paid him $60 for his time and was told another technician could come finish putting the vehicle back together. My vehicle was left undrivable overnight. The next morning Y/D initially told me someone would call back within 10-15 minutes to arrange another technician. That call did not come. I was later told all technicians were booked and someone could come the following morning around 10:00 AM. I could not leave my vehicle undrivable for another full day, so I hired an independent automotive technician to inspect it. He found that the drive-belt tensioner operating point/bolt had been stripped and could no longer be properly operated. I received an estimate of $449.65 to replace the tensioner assembly alone, separate from the alternator repair I already needed. When the independent technician returned to address the belt issue, he discovered that my original alternator had also been reinstalled incorrectly. It was not properly seated, and one mounting bolt was misaligned and not positioned through its proper mounting point. I am including a photo of that condition. According to the independent technician, the misaligned alternator prevented the belt from fitting correctly around the accessory system. He advised that the stripped tensioner was consistent with excessive force being applied while attempting to install the belt with the alternator improperly positioned. He also advised that the tensioner otherwise appeared to function normally apart from the stripped operating point. Once he properly seated and aligned the alternator, the belt could be installed correctly. The technician has agreed to document his findings in writing and, if necessary, testify regarding what he personally observed and his professional opinion. What disappoints me just as much as the mechanical work is how this was handled afterward. I repeatedly gave Y/D Automotive opportunities to resolve this directly. Despite already paying additional inspection and corrective-service costs, I initially asked only for the $449.65 cost of replacing the damaged tensioner. I specifically told them I was not asking them to pay for the alternator I already needed, my additional diagnostic expenses, corrective work, lost business income, transportation issues, or my time. I later made an even broader attempt to resolve this. After researching the business, I came to believe the technician who worked on my vehicle may also be the person operating Y/D Automotive. Because I am a small business owner myself and understand that people can get in over their heads, I offered to waive the $449.65 request entirely in exchange for an honest account of what happened, acknowledgment of the damage, and a sincere apology. That message was sent through multiple business communication channels, and some showed as read. I received no response resolving the matter. At this point I am beginning the formal process of pursuing recovery of my documented damages and expenses. I would have preferred to resolve this directly, but I am not willing to absorb damage to my vehicle and the resulting costs. Everyone makes mistakes. What matters is how someone handles them afterward. Based on the work performed on my vehicle and the way this situation has been handled, I absolutely cannot recommend Y/D Automotive. I am including supporting photographs and documentation where the platform allows so readers can evaluate the circumstances for themselves.

      My daughter is a UTSA student living away from home. She calls me and says her 2018 Hyundai Elantra…read morewon't start but she knows of a mechanic close to her apartment. She has her car towed to Chad Miller Auto Care and calls me to say she needs a new battery and is being quoted $645. I ask her to hand her phone to an employee, and when I asked why this is so expensive the employee raised their voice at me. I asked for a manager and was informed it was Chad himself I was talking to. I would NOT suggest this mechanic. He is unprofessional and perpetuates the negative stereotype of crooked mechanics preying on young women.

From what I read, they seemed like they knew what they were…read moredoing and maybe they do, but of the two vehicles I took there, both over 10 years old and with a variety of problems, they were able to fix some things,but not all. Mine has an oil leak at least 4 different places haven't been able to figure out. Chad's garage gave me some hope, but they were never able to fix it. I take pretty much all "guarantees" with a grain of salt. "Bring it back"...pffft why would I? You couldn't fix it the First time? More likely, I'll just be dumping more money in sonl you can "half fix it" a 2nd time. One mechanic even told my wife to "hit the dash when her A/C wasn't kicking on...AFTER they fixed it. GTFO... Really!? Cost wasn't exactly on the cheap side...maybe fair, but ONLY if they fix the problem. My impression is they had way more cars than they could handle and were trying to rush them outa there. Fair enough, but I will not be taking either of ours back. Fair warning to those that do.

I called on a Monday morning and was pleasantly surprised to get a same day appointment! The parking lot is a bit small, but once inside, the waiting area was clean, comfortable, and didn't smell like oil or cars like some other shops do (which I really appreciated!). I was greeted right away and even offered a complimentary ride home while they worked on my car which was such a nice touch. The gentleman who gave me the ride was very kind and seemed genuinely trustworthy. They called me once my car was ready and arranged for pickup, which made the entire process super convenient. This service alone makes coming here worth it as I hate having to waste time sitting around in a shop! I also loved that they sent me a detailed digital report with pictures of everything they inspected and noted any issues. It's so helpful to actually see what they're referring to. I chose not to fix a few things right away due to cost, but I really appreciate their transparency and the information so I can plan and budget for future repairs. Overall, I had a great experience here. Everyone I interacted with was friendly, professional, and respectful of my time.
