    I've been coming to Joe's Master Service Center for close to 20 years for vehicle inspections, but they offer so much more than that. Located three blocks north of the Hidalgo County Courthouse on the corner of Closner and W. Peter Street, they offer a wide array of vehicle repair and maintenance services: shocks, oil change, transmission, brakes, A/C, tires, alignments, battery service, fuel injection, to name a few. If you cannot tell by the trailers and trucks parked here, they also are a U-Haul rental dealer. Whether it's Joe himself, or his assistant at the counter, I've always been provided friendly, efficient, and professional customer service. Joe is the real deal, no Botox, just good honest work for a decent price. I have always arrived as a walk-in, and they have always attended to my car promptly. If there is a line, they let me know approximately how long the wait will be, and it was never long. The prices posted on the signs for the various services appear to be competitive, if not better than most. That's probably why they have a sign posted stating that there is a small convenience charge (to re-coup their costs) if you are paying with a credit card. Some reviewers have complained about that, but the sign is in plain sight; other places will simply charge you more up front. There is a bench where you can wait inside and enjoy the biker garage / Elvis theme. There is also a TV. But be aware there is no air conditioning in the waiting room / lobby, the only reason I'm giving them four stars rather than five. But let's get real... if you're a tender soul that melts when temperatures are over 80, you probably should not live in the RGV! Seriously, with the door open and the fan going, even in Summer it's not bad. I recommend Joe's Master Service Center, where you can get quality work at a good price, all with a smile and a handshake.

    Went to Joes to return a Uhaul. 1st if all I don't know if Edinburg is a bad area or his shop is in a bad area or what? But the owner of the shop feels like he has to show off his Gun by carrying it out in the open in a gun holster. I waited inside a run down small space. Owner, Joe, was outside talking to what appeared to be one of his buddies by the street. There was no one else to help me as there were only 2 mechanics working and working on vehicles. Then finally he walked in and just said to me, "YES sir?" I said, I'm returning a truck". He said, you have the paperwork?" I said no it's paperless. He said" well some are paperless" and just walked out to get a reading. Then walked back in and gave me a receipt paper. He said ... there you go. I walked out and left. Super bad service and the guy thinks he the king of mechanic shops. It looked like an old 80's shop with no organization what so ever. I would not go there again for drop off or rentals much less for car repairs.

    The Walmart Auto Care Center at the University Drive Super Walmart in Edinburg is located on the…read moreleft (east) side of the building, toward the back behind the garden section. The Auto Care Center offers tire and battery sales and installation, wiper blade replacement, oil changes, oil and air filters, headlight restoration, and related services. I visited for an oil change. As I drove up, an attendant came to my car, directed me to the back of the line, gathered my information, confirmed the type of oil I wanted, entered everything on a tablet, and took my keys. I immediately received a confirmation text message, which also included a link to the app where I could monitor the progress of the service. After turning in your keys, you can enter a small, basic waiting room with a few comfortable seats. The waiting room connects directly to the main Walmart store, so you can shop while you wait. If you do shop, it's best to avoid frozen items since you'll need to check out at the front and bring your cart back around to the Auto Care Center, where there is a designated place to park carts near the service bay. Another option is to continue shopping until your vehicle is ready and then take your purchases directly to your car behind the service bay. When I arrived, two cars were already in the service bay, and one car was ahead of mine in line. From check-in to completion, the total time was just over an hour. There are certainly places that offer faster oil changes or more comfortable waiting areas, but Walmart's price is significantly lower, and the staff I interacted with were friendly and helpful. I also appreciated being able to monitor the service through the app, text updates, and the service bay window. Based on my experiences, they have consistently done a good job.
