Sam's Auto Care 1602 South Lamar Boulevard, Austin, TX 78704

"Honest mechanics who always do a good job in a timely manner. The price is also very reasonable has been less for jobs when comparison shopping."

"It was my first time for repairs here and it was recommended by a friend. Glad I came - they found the cause of my oil leak and were very communicative and direct with pricing. So glad I came; now I have a new mechanic I can trust! Thanks guys!"

"Great place with great service- they fixed my car up perfectly after a crash and even washed it after. Very responsive, easy to deal with, and got my car fixed in just a little over a week with short notice. Amar was especially friendly and helpful. Would definitely go back."

"I love Anmar. I've never had a better mechanic. He's straightforward about what I need and what solutions will be. He's affordable and doesn't try and up-charge out the wazoo. He's transparent about additional issues he discovers (if any) and if they need an immediate fix or if they can wait, along with fixing everything I brought the car in for. Further he's super personable and remembers me and my life every time, I love getting to catch up with him. Highly recommend bringing your business here!"

"New to Austin and my check engine light came on Sunday night. I started Monday morning at Auto Tek- they told me they were booked out two weeks even for a diagnostic. They referred me to their "overflow" shop Lopez Auto Repair but I opted against. Next I went to Dave's Ultimate Automotive- they told me I could drop my car off Wednesday afternoon and should expect $160 for diagnostic. Finally, I called Sam's. I was told I could drop the car off later Monday morning and they'd have a diagnosis by mid day. Sure enough at about 2:00, I got a call that I needed new spark plugs/ignition coils. The car was ready to be picked up by 5:30 before they closed- amazing!! The repair for my 2017 Ford Edge came out to $760. When I called Dave's and asked for a quote for the same repair, they came back with $842 PLUS the $160 diagnostic. Well done, Sam's. I now have my new auto shop established! ***UPDATE 2 WEEKS LATER*** As it turns out, my vehicle unfortunately had deeper issues than Anmar had originally anticipated. 2 days after the first repair, the engine light came back on. Hoping for the best, Anmar (at no cost) replaced the spark plugs saying they could be defective. Unfortunately the check engine light then came back a week later meaning the plugs were fine and there was a deeper issue. Knowing about notorious issues with Ford EcoBoost engines (side note- NEVER BUY A FORD), Anmar even printed the bulletin from the Ford website for us. We took the car to the Ford dealership and they confirmed the car needed a completely new engine- estimated repairs of $9K. We let Anmar know of this diagnosis (which came at a $120 fee) and he told us if we brought the vehicle back to him he would replace with the original spark plugs which he had saved, and give us a FULL REFUND. Sure enough, an hour later the car was ready with a check for $760. Moral of the story, I will never take my car anywhere but Sam’s as long as I live in Austin, and you should do the same. Incredibly honest and reliable business, hard to come by these days. THANK YOU ANMAR!"
