Knowledgable & Great Service with a Smile After reading the excellent reviews I referred my husband to your shop when he noticed a clunking noise when shifting from reverse into drive in our Honda. Worried about what type of repairs we might face as this was our only form of transportation I went ahead and provided your shop name & number. But our concerns were put to rest when he was told there was no problem at all. The gentleman he spoke with on the phone he said was very helpful and said he would do his best to get to th... read more
Ripped Off I would not take my car here again. They over charge significantly. I used to take my car to a place in Houston that wasn't the cheapest, but was fair. I don't mind paying a little more to know my car is in good hands. However, Southwest Automotive quoted me an extremely high price for what should have been around $700. When I expressed my discernment with the total we decided to not do some of what they were saying needed to be done. They warned me that they may encounter problems when they were working. When I h... read more
Auto Repair Our family van recently broke down and was having multilple problems. I took the van to several shops for estimates of what it would cost to get the work done. I found a few places that were a little cheaper, but they just did not seem as knowledgeable as this shop. These guys really seemed honest, were very friendly, and their prices were pretty good. They had our van fixed in a suprisingly fast time, without any extra expenses being tacked on. I will be going back here the next time we need work done.
Honest, Dependable I have used SW Auto for 16 years. I've used a few other auto shops in my 25 years in Austin but these guys are the best in my opinion. They are not necessarily the cheapest, but they are honest, they don't try to sell unnecessary parts or repairs and they guarantee their work. My only complaint is that they are not open on weekends!
As honest as the day is long! I will not take my vehicles any where else! Rick, Bob and everyone at Southwest Automotive are awesome. With all the advanced technology on cars today, its good to know that I have someone I can trust with our cars. I have taken cars in for what turned out to be minor repairs that I either was not charged for or paid very little for them to fix. They have never tried to upsell me for anything and when they fix something, its fixed! Repairs are always completed on time. Seriously, if you are in t... read more
Excellent Service Shop I found this shop by using Google to search on (sans <> brackets). After investigating the most pertinent hits, it was the reviews from this site that led me to Southwest Automotive Repair (SAR). I'm somewhat new to Austin, and very new to this neighborhood. From the moment I walked in the door I had a good feeling about the place. I've owned mostly old vehicles, and moved around a lot, so I'm very familiar with the process of trying to find a reliable mechanic (which can be a very trying experience). ... read more
Top-Notch, Honest Auto Repair This is by far the best auto repair center I have found in South Austin. I am a bit spoiled as my entire family (in NJ) are auto mechanics. Finding a reliable, honest auto repair shop is very difficult. Although my knowledge of cars in minimal, they have never treated me as "dumb" and have never tried to sell me unneeded services or parts. (The reason I know this, is because any diagnosis has been relayed to my brother in NJ for verification - he has even called then and talked to them as manage... read more
swa my dad owns this shop, and I've heard nothing but great things since i was little. i know a lot of the customers that come here and all are really great! thank you soooo much for posting such good things. i would really love to grow up and handle people the same way my father does. he's never lied to anyone, and will help anyone who asks. so thanks again. and he can fix transmissions, but there might have been something more complex about the situation you had that he couldn't fix. sorry (;
The Best - take your vehicle to them. I have taken our vehicles to Southwest Automotive Repair for more than 15 years. I will not go anywhere else. Always excellent, competent, reliable, and customer friendly. I know our family is safer on the road because or Rick, Bob, and the guys. Take your vehicle to them if you want the best.
