On May 14, 2021 my wife and I were en route to the Texas hill country town of Wimberley for a long…read moreweekend. About 15 minutes away from Lampasas the serpentine belt on our car broke. We searched Google for an auto repair shop in Lampasas and randomly picked L&H Automotive. I was so glad we chose that shop. We called and told them that we were waiting for our tow to show up and we'd be there as soon as we could. We arrived at 5:05 p.m. on a Friday and I'm sure everyone was ready to go home and start the weekend. I can't tell you how impressed I was that three or four guys stayed and worked on our car for over two and a half hours. The repair, while temporary, allowed us to make our vacation rental and get back home to Benbrook TX. This was not the easy repair you would want to see after closing hours. Had they not done this we would have had to stay in Lampasas all weekend, lose our cabin rental which was non-refundable and a good part of Monday. The courtesy and respect they showed my wife and I is something that we will never forget. While no one likes it when their car breaks down, and especially knowing what is involved to getting the A/C compressor and related parts of the system back up and running. We considered ourselves very blessed to have come across this amazing group of guys. It's no wonder Jay was voted best mechanic of Lampasas county for 2021. If we lived in this great community I know where I would be taking our autos for servicing and repair. You guys rock, and Sandy the dog does too.

I went here for an altenator replacement. Six and a half hour later they finally got the parts but…read moretold me I would have to pay $151 for a front end alignment because they needed to remove the rack and pinion assembly. They had a cheezy print out that said right hand drive below the picture. Fine if we were in Europe. They then recanted the alignment and finally did the work. A day and a half for a 3 hour tops job. They finally opened the hood to do the work and needed to disconnect some radiator hoses to do the work. What is so abysmal is that they returned my car to me with the radiator 4 quarts low and didn't say a word about it. They also left the did not reattatch the top shroud. Just left it loose in the engine compartment. Had I not checked the fluid before going to Temple I would of ended up with a burned out motor and or disable on the expressway. So if you are in need of some new muffler bearings go here. Otherwise I suggest you stay away and seek out a mechanic that knows what he is doing.

He made sure my vehicle had air in the tires, checked my fluids, and even offered helpful suggestions to keep me safely on the road. That kind of service can't be taught. It comes from genuinely caring about people. When a company has employees who look out for others instead of just doing the bare minimum, those are the people you hold on to. Thank you for the kindness, professionalism, and reminder that there are still good people out there making a difference company credit for having the right people in place.

I scheduled the appointment in advance, and they were ready for me exactly as promised. The inspection was thorough, and the results, along with their recommendations, were explained clearly and professionally. They encouraged my questions, took the time to answer each one completely, and made sure I understood their findings. I left with confidence that I had received an honest, unbiased assessment of the vehicle. Based on this experience, I would not hesitate to trust them with any future maintenance or repairs on my vehicles. I highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for honest, knowledgeable, and dependable automotive service.

They are just so honest. They went out immediately to see if they had a tire. Will update after we get the work done. They charged us $135 for a tire which was wayyyy less than discount tire, and got it done in two hours. We drive an SUV so this was such a blessing!!! They could have said "yes here is a rim and tire" but they were so honest and only charged for the tire. Just the best energy when you have a mishap and need a new tire.

Avoid at all costs. I was sold an expensive used truck with low miles. I was told it had the…read moreremaining 50-thousand-mile factory warranty and also told I could extend it to the 100,000-mile warranty when the time came. I kept calling and asking about the warranty info and kept getting the run around. I bought the truck in 2019 and still only have 57,000 miles on it. I went to Killeen to trade in the truck, and they were excited to make a deal. Then after running my Vin I was told that NO dealership would touch the truck since it was made and registered in Canada. This makes all Chevy warranties void. By law dealerships are required to disclose the Canadian issue. I drove straight to speak with Lee who spent most of our conversation bragging about his 23-year-old girlfriend and how his wife wasn't happy. Then Lee passed me off to his sales manager who offered me no end of BS and told me the dealerships were trying to scam me. They wanted to buy my truck. He further told me I did not need a Chevy warranty as I had the "Lee Hoffpauer Guarantee." Sorry but Chevy doesn't cheat on their wife and lie to customers so I would rather go with the Chevy warranty. The sales manager then offered to have a third party buy my truck for 30 grand. He wanted to screw me twice. I told him I can't sell it or trade in in at any dealership and he said that he would give me a letter saying they would buy it for 30 grand. The truck is worth much more than 30 grand. Even the auctions are required to disclose Canadian manufacture by law. I would really prefer not to do this but I am suing them. They will lose as they clearly broke the law. Even the dealership across the street told me I had to sue them. I am not happy to have to do this and I am not someone who sues people normally, but I have no choice. I have a million visitors to my fakebook page yearly and will make sure I get the word out.
