Power window failed to open. Switch and motor OK. They found a broken wire and spliced it.
I am a senior with no other transportation.
I appreciate it that they worked on it while I waited. They worked on it about an hour.
They charged me $470.89.

Daniel at Austin Auto Repair is very knowledgeable and professional. They tell you what your car actually needs instead of just doing work to make money. Local guys who care about their customers. Really appreciate their honesty. Reliable and dependable work. Thanks guys!

Went there today for an oil change because we have a big trip coming up. Daniel was very friendly and professional. Made sure the car was good to go for a long drive. I did not wait long. Would highly recommend.

I'm very disappointed in my experience with Austin Auto Repair. They first quoted me $400 to get my car fixed and after almost 3 months of them having my car.....I finally got it back and it was almost $4000! When I finally got my car back, I noticed some parts of my hood were discolored. I figured it was dirt, because when I picked up my car it was outside with a dozen other cars....in the sun. How long had it been sitting in the heat? After getting my car detailed, the spots were still there. I called and the owner said there was nothing he could do. I'll pretty sure my car was outside

I called to schedule a synthetic oil change for an F150. This was my first visit and they made time for me to fit my schedule that same day. I arrived on time and had to wait only a couple minutes while they moved another vehicle out. Very friendly mechanic and office manager. It was only an oil change, but that was enough to convince me to return for other work. No BS, no trying to sell more work.

It's been more than a month now since I had to have work done on my car and I came on here to say that my car has had no issues since. My car would shut down whenever I pressed on my brake, I had to have some stuff replaced and in my opinion, the bill was not that bad. Also, they are quick to respond to emails!

I just moved to Austin and almost the first day of being here my "check engine light" came on. I had no clue where to take it so I turned to Yelp to figure that out. Austin Auto Repair, with a 5 star rating, seemed like the place to go.

I called them and made an appointment and dropped my vehicle off the next morning around 9am. By noon the shop called me and told me exactly what was wrong with my vehicle, an estimated time it would be ready, and exactly how much it would be down to the penny. They did the repair and by 5pm I had my car back all fixed and ready to go.

Great service and team! I've been for two visits, oil change, brake fluid change and rotor and brake replacement. Gary was welcoming and worked with my schedule.

Overall job was very well done and timely. Highly recommend this team!

Thank you!!

My car had sat at their shop in the parking lot for 5 months without any work done to it. I had called numerous times within this time period to check the progress of my vehicle which they had assured me the car would be at least started. They never required a down payment or any money upfront as far as I'm aware. There was no mention of any money to be put down before work could be done to my car nor was there a requirement to do so. I assumed the work would be done and then we would pay for the said work that would have been done. We also had a code reader connected to the obd2 scanner and

I had a great experience with Gary and team when my car started giving ac trouble. Even though the intermittent cooling issue was hard to root cause, they had the patience to listen to me and recheck the ac system. They ended up staying past closing time on Friday so they could recover and recharge the ac system. Its been 3 weeks and I haven't had an issue with the ac since then.

Give Gary a chance, you won't be disappointed.

Add another 5 star review for Austin Auto Repair! I chose this place based on Yelp ratings, and as a first time customer I was not let down. Had a 2008 Kia with air conditioning issues. I dropped it off without an appointment, they had it diagnosed and fixed the next day! Honest work, they even went out of their way to locate a hard to find part to keep the repair cost down vs. charging for a new compressor. If you live in SW Austin this is the place to take your car for service & repairs.

Brought truck in as it was overheating & AC didn't work. Picked it up after paying $2000. Which is a lot of money for us. AC did not work & truck overheated. Took it back immediately-they were really nice about it. Picked it up again. AC did work-we were told guy drove it & all was well. STILL overheating. Took it back. They Could not fix it. Wanted another $500 to go into water pump to see if that was the problem. I know people must be paid for work but I'm unclear why I paid $2000 for a truck we can not use. But the AC works

The previous shop-Jerry Dixon's kept

I found Austin Auto Repair using yelp, and I am so grateful I did. Not only were Gary and Joe incredibly friendly, you can tell they truly care about the quality of work they do, all at a very reasonable price! I brought my truck in for an oil change, and Joe ended up catching that my radiator was leaking! He also ended up fixing my hood lift support without me having to ask (2 other previous mechanics did not fix it for me even after asking). I feel so confident in the work he did. As long as I live in Austin, I will never go to another mechanic.

Twice now my family has taken in cars for repair that was very minor, much to our surprise. They could have completely taken advantage of each situation, but they did not! We are completely committed to this shop now!

I use to take my old/problematic Jeep here all the time. They are the ONLY shop I've ever trusted 120%. They are honest and knowledgeable with fair pricing. I bought a new Jeep last year so I haven't been there recently, but give them a try! You won't regret it!

These guys are great. I have taken my father's Jag there twice for repairs. They are a stand up shop. They tell you what your car needs along with the price before starting the work. They are also very fast. Faster than most shops I have dealt with in the past. It is worth the drive to go to this shop. Fully trust them.
