"Went in for an alignment, right off, the kids said $80 plus $650 for labor on replacement parts before he even checked if it needed replacement parts. I had been ball joints, tie rod ends, upper and lower control arm bushings, and a new rack and pinion so I needed it aligned. . He jacks it up, wiggles the tires and said I need ball joints, and control arm bushings. It went from $80 to $1400 real quick. I decided 8t was too much and I told him I was taking it to CD's in Natalia. There, the tru the same skit. Alignment plus parts and labor. He said I need wheel bearing hub assemblies. A T didn't even mention those. Turns out both places are in cahoots with each other. Needless to say I am still needing an alignment and now new tires because neither would do just an alignment!"

"Quick and honest service! My car is a 2016 with 60,000 miles and no prior issues. Another shop in San Antonio tried charging me $7000 to replace the transfer case, axel and transmission because my RPMs were periodically shooting up when I accelerated. I didn't think it could possibly need this such extensive repairs and had it towed to A T's. I actually just needed a CV joint replaced. A one day, $500 fix. I'm extremely grateful for this shop, their honesty and timely service! I've put a couple hundred miles on the car since the repair and have had no issues."

"I wouldn't recommend going to this shop they was supposed to do my alignment but truck still pulls to the left went there first time got charged 80 then bck again and got charged 30 going bck and it still pulls left i djt recommend them for alignments if you want one done go to Firestone and get a lifetime alignment for 160"

"Was trying to keep business local, initial interaction was nice. Owner was helpful for other stuff. Their staff mechanic did poor work, costing an extra $600 in parts and time. Issues: 1. The fuel filter pictured, silver (left), was provided for replacement. The mechanic told owner it wasn't correct and charged $90 for new one. The black filter on the right was the original filter. Got it replaced by another location in about 20 minutes using the provided silver filter. (refund provided). 2. Transmission filter was said to be replaced, their lift was in-op at the time, and pan bolts were never removed, drain bolts never touched. Fluid was over filled by a quart, pumped out the extra quart of fluid. 3. Alternator was replaced, now dead, rubber b+ cap was missing, pinch bolt for adjuster not installed, alternator tension held by pivot bolt, over torqued , destroyed alternator. Upon inspection the shop owner didn't notice, care or look. Installed another new alternator $200 dollars, had to go to Toyota service for new pinch bolt, $2 dollars. Shop owner didn't catch the employee's mistake after being called out on the fuel filter. 4. Front passenger tire lug nuts were loose after leaving shop the first time when picking up from alternator change, caused three studs to be damaged, emergency repair required. $300. Before hiring this location or any, take before and after photos of your vehicle, check all your studs on your tires, check your fluid levels. Mark your parts, check for missing bolts, caps, etc. Demand to be shown replaced parts that you can't keep. The shop owner did offer a repair credit and partial refund."
