Carlin's Automotive Repair & Service 209 South Hastings Street, Duncanville, TX 75116

"Awesome shop! Had a set of cams installed and a wideband gauge. These guys did a great job and I love how the car sounds and drives. I highly recommend."

"Contacted Carlin when my front driver's side control arm broke while driving in D'ville. Had the car towed to his garage, and he was able to replace the lower control arms, shocks, and ball joints quickly and properly. They were honest, and kept me in the loop with progress, and treated me fairly. Definitely recommend using this mechanic."

"Quite pricey but great and reliable mechanic work. I had my oil changed and a few things engine related done here. Their service is excellent and I trust them. Heard lots of great comments from local friends who have been using this shop."

"Took my car to Carlin’s after a different shop gave me a bogus assessment. They gave me an accurate assessment and fixed my car in a timely manner. The service was good, and they’re friendly. They don’t have shade tree mechanic prices, but you can trust the quality of the work they do.."

"Here is to share my story and show my heartfelt appreciation to Carlin and his colleagues. Two weeks ago on my road trip from Toronto to Houston, my car hit blown truck tire debris on the highway to Little Rock at night. The A/C stopped working soon after this. It sounded everything else worked fine. After tolerating the extreme heat in Texas for two days and stopped at Dallas, I decided to take my car to check whether the A/C could be fixed right away. Upon a Google search, I was fortunate to find Carlin’s Auto near my hotel. Upon a professional and detailed check, Carlin and his colleagues fully explained what had happened that night after hitting a tire debris. The A/C pipe was twisted and leaking out all refrigerants. The car radiator was loosened and not properly attached any more. To be worse, the coolant was leaking through the radiator. They provide professional options about how to prioritize and fix the damages as per their risks involved and why. All were also planned to expedite the repairs in order to accommodate my current road trip. I am glad I fully accepted their professional advice and managed my original trip plan to stay one more day in Dallas to have all fixed. This does provide a maximum level of comfort when I continued my trip to Albuquerque NM, Page CO, Las Vegas NV and return Toronto ON two days ago. None of A/C and radiator issues exist any more. Thank you Carlin and your colleagues. Your professional and quality service is really appreciated! BTW, the community and the park very close to Carlin’s Auto are scenic and quiet. There is even a group of wild monk parakeets. Also there is a library there. You would not be bored if you are waiting for car service."
