Marcos Autoelectric

"Do not have Marco repair your vehicle a/c system !! I gave him 2 opportunities to replace a compressor on my Ford Focus and he screwed up both times by overcharging the system. He refused to warranty his work or help rectify the problem. This place is not recommended and far too expensive. Go someplace else to get repairs done professionally and cheaper !!"

"Took my vehicle to Marcos Auto electric in Del Rio to fix a slow battery drain. They had the vehicle for 4 days, they said they fixed the problem, charged me $500 and said it had a 6 month warranty. Right away I could tell they had not fixed the problem because the battery was still being drained below 11.9 volts. Took the vehicle back a second time. Kept the vehicle for 3 weeks. This time they recommended I replace the BCM. Rebuilt BCM cost me $400. Marcos was unable to program the BCM so they brought in a 3rd party to do the programming. They charged me another $600. Original warranty was not honored. Let the vehicle set for a weekend. Guess what. Battery was still being drained. $1500 spent and my problem was not fixed."

"In and out quickly. Marco, father and son, don't make appointments. First come - first served. Good technical expertise. They also do pretty good auto detailing. If you can, try to call first. They fix flats too."

"I would not recommend this shop for repairs. I took my vehicle here due to a problem where the engine would intermittently fail when it heated up. I described the problem to them and told them I thought it was my fuel pump, they agreed and offered to replace it. They told me it would take 2-3 days to complete the repair. It took closer to a week to finish the job, for which I was charged $650. I picked up my vehicle, when I got on the highway, the engine failed again, they had never fixed the problem. By the way, even idling the vehicle for 20 minutes or giving it a test drive would have killed the engine so it's clear they never tested their "solution". I ended up fixing the problem myself, it was a small sensor repair which cost about $50 and took 5 minutes. Also, when I was there they told me my alternator and battery were failing and I should get them replaced. This was false, I got my alternator and battery tested at 2 other places and they were both good, and they have gone for 6 months without any problems. Based on the other reviews it seems like they do good work and they were recommended to me by another shop so maybe they just weren't on their A game with me but I had a bad experience and based on that I can't recommend them to anybody."
