Services
Since 1998, Freddie Kish's Complete Car Care Center has been dedicated to providing quality auto repairs to customers in Waco and the surrounding area. Our services include brake repair, auto diagnostics, general auto repair, tire installation and much more. At Freddie Kish's Complete Car Care Center, our ASE-Certified professionals use state-of-the-art equipment in their work.
They provide top quality repair and service and will not try to gouge you; everyone there, especially David DeRosier, is pleasant, fast and reliable. Our technicians use the latest technology to not only tell you if there are any issues with your vehicle, but show you. If we uncover an issue the photo will be e-mailed to you for your records.
I would tell them, the customer service was spot on, and they kept us informed of their findings. Everyone there was super friendly, and the main lobby and shop were immaculate. Highly recommend giving these guys a try (they even beat the dealers estimate). Communication was stellar. My Jeep is running better than it has since I've owned it.
Your vehicle's alternator serves a dual purpose: it supplies power to components while the engine is running, and it charges the battery when the engine is off. If your dashboard battery light comes on, or if you hear squealing or often need to jump your battery, the likely solution is an alternator repair or replacement.
Your vehicle's air conditioning is a function of both comfort and safety, cooling you down in hot weather and clearing the windows on cold, wet days. The system works hard all year round, and only the most capable hands will secure its long-range integrity. If you're "losing your cool" behind the wheel, it's probably time for auto A/C repairs.

Wow! I had a check engine light come ON THE WAY to Kish’s for 60,000 mile maintenance appt. Turns out transmission issues partly covered under extended Ford Warranty. They found that and notified me (they could have kept quiet to get the work). Shuttle driver Dale is amazing too!! Will be long term customer - appreciate the honesty from Brad - was a bright light in an otherwise bad situation.
Highly recommend!!

Freddie Kish’s has always given me and my family excellent service for the past 10 years so I am not only disappointed with the lack of service that I received today, but I am also surprised. One week ago I made an online reservation for routine oil change service for today. Six days ago, I received a personalized email confirming the… reservation. Today when I arrived at Freddie Kish’s shop, I was met outside and told that because a service rep was on vacation the other service reps had a line of “cars 5 deep”. I certainly understand unforeseen circumstances. What

Hey guys... A MASSIVE thank you to everyone. Dave, you're a gem! I had a two-hour hearing set on this particular day and my car wouldn't start.
(With a new battery!!!) 😢
Dave met my frenzied irritation with calm reserve. Fixed my Jeep in under an hour! Just... wow!
I was able to make my hearing!
Thanks guys!
I'll be back soon.
Kind regards,

I 100% recommend Freddie Kish with your vehicle. I am genuinely impressed with their expertise, customer service, and their above and beyond mentality. Never have I ever been to another place where I felt 100% confident that they knew what was going on with my vehicle. I found out about Freddie Kish because I work for where we work… with youth experiencing homeless. We served a youth who had extensive vehicle issues and Freddie Kish donated their time and services to help this young person get their vehicle in tip top condition in order to get back and forth to her job. What was so important

I have been bringing my car to Freddy Kish's for 4 years. The service their team provides, especially their General Manager, Dave DeRosier is stellar. I trust their advice and the quality of their work. I know that I will be taken care of every time... It is another year later and I still can't say enough about how blessed I feel to have Freddy Kish looking out for me and my car. Most recently I bought a new used car and they performed a "used car inspection". The dealership was shocked at what they found. If you are purchasing a used car no matter how new it may be, have them do the inspection

Best automotive repair shop experience in my 37 years of driving! With over 160,000 miles on my truck, I really value the detailed digital report, and how they monitor my vehicle and help me plan and budget for upcoming maintenance and repairs. Freddie Kish's is the best in Waco, but don't take my word for it...check their history with LocalsLoveUs, Wacoan, and the Waco Tribune-Herald Readers' Choice Awards. And then go by and meet the General Manager, Dave DeRosier and his dedicated team of technicians and service support professionals.

If I could give these guys more than 5 stars then I would. My truck was making a strange noise so I took it to the dealership first and they told me that the part I needed was on backorder for 2 weeks. So we called Josh at Freddie's and he was able to find it and install it within a day. On top of the availability they were over $100 less expensive than the dealership, and that was with me including a oil change and tire rotation.
Every employee up there is amazing at what they do (especially Josh and Dave) If you are having car issues or just need to get a tire rotation and oil change, these

My son goes to Baylor and I live in California. His car wouldn't start so we had it towed to the shop. They were able to fix his car even though they were very busy. So honest. We found our repair shop.

I took my car in and explained that my vehicle was overheating and that I believed that the water pump was going out. I also asked to have a complete tune up while my vehicle was in their possession.
My car is ready in about a week. However, the only reason that I found that out was because, the day that I called to check on it, I was informed that it was ready the day prior.
So, to make a long story even longer, I pick up my car turn on my

6:45 19AUG21 .I just paid $2000 to replace my seering rack, 6 hear hoses, and a flush. I check my coolant level after work, on the same day and it is as low as this rating. I want this remedied immediately if this takes more than 3 hours I want a rental car paid for by Freddie kish himself.

Dave and the team at Freddie Kish's have serviced our vehicles several times over the past year. They have always been timely, professional, and you can tell they truly care about their customers. I highly recommend them for all of your car care needs.

They treat customers like family and will give you honest feedback. Stan assisted me and he was outstanding! He ensured a thorough inspection was done as I recently bought this vehicle. He helped me understand what needed to be done and even helped me plan for the future. I feel much safer after I had them work on my car, thank you all for everything you all do!

We went here after buying a car from someone. They charged us $100 to diagnose the problem which was fine except when you pay that much you don't expect them to drain all the oil out of your car. On my way home (I couldn't afford to get $4000 of repairs which they say it needs) the car died on the side of the road and I had to get it towed. The oil… was empty. They said it had an oil leak so why couldn't they put some in for my drive home?! I would have paid for them to fill it with oil! instead they send me home knowing it's empty! Save your money go elsewhere

Got charged $100 for "diagnostics" for the broken cable I told them about when I came in. Additionally, their "diagnostics" left me with a dead battery.

I recently had to have a big repair project done to my car. I chose to use Freddie Kish’s Complete Car Care Center, because I needed the job to be done right. They have a reputation for their customer service and quality work, and that still holds true after such an amazing job was done with my car. Dave DeRosier was the manager that I dealt with and he is a great, upbeat guy that was honest with me and did not try to sell me stuff that I didn’t need. Thank you all for your hard work and professionalism.
