Came in yesterday feeling pretty lost about what may be wrong with my car. I spoke with the owner who was very kind and seems to really care about his customers. He listed to me, helped me come up with a game plan, and even verified work done by another shop to make sure it was done correctly. I came back today to complete the service and really appreciate their communication. The cost for the amount of work was very reasonable and I will absolutely come back for my future services. read more

Alternative Motorcars is the closest shop to where I live, and thank goodness! They were quick to replace two faulty engine parts - I brought the car in the morning and it was done by end of day. Prices are comparable to other independent auto shops in the area, if not a bit less expensive. I have a bit more work that needs to be done on my car in the near future and intend to go back to them. read more

My 2012 rav4 had a blown head gasket! I took my car into Omar and he went out his way to take care of me. He had more car inspected and fixed within a week.

They do great work, at a very fair price and are quick. They don't price gouge! They are real mechanics and not a bunch of kids. I'd trust my car to them over the fancy over priced dealers anytime. It's a small garage. But don't let that fool you! I've bought a single tire from them one time and it lasted the entire time I owned my vehicle. So much more cost effective than discount tire!! And quicker while you wait. read more

They got me in right before closing, which I really appreciated. Omar was excellent--he had multiple technicians working on my car and finished everything in under 45 minutes. I needed a new battery, terminal, and an oil change, all handled efficiently. He explained everything clearly and even filled my tires without me having to ask. My car runs almost like new. I'll definitely be back. read more

Great service and very fast. Very friendly staff. I'd definitely recommend this garage.

By far the single best provider of auto servicing in Dallas. I almost don't want to post this because I don't want people to know how amazing it is. Last time I dropped my car off they fixed my issue and didn't charge me. I can't say you will have the same experience but if you drop off your car, whatever they do you can rest assured it is fair and honest. They are the best in town. I have a Mercedes and it is always in trouble, they make my life easier. read more

I had to take my car in because it wouldn't start. I had trouble with the towing company and Omar here at Alternative Automotive allowed me to easily drop it off after hours. He was so helpful in this stressful situation. Luckily my car was ready two days later. I told him initially that I thought it was the fuel pump and when he checked out my car, he said he only had to fix the lines and that the fuel pump was just fine. The cost of the part was around $225 and in total I paid around $600 because lots of labor was involved. When I went to pick up my car, he was so kind and explained the problem with my car. Thank you, Omar, so much for helping me out! read more

My dad took his car here the other day when the check engine light was on. He told me this is the second time he's taken his car here and they are fantastic. He said they were honest, kind and intelligent. He appreciated their dedication, expertise and how fast they got him taken care of. They are definitely one of the best shops in oak lawn. read more

I brought my car in because my AC was blowing hot air and ended up bringing it back 5 times for 2 repairs that led to no improvement at all. Not really sure why they were unable to diagnose or fix the issue. I hope the one star goes to the cat, he seems like he would have done a better job. read more

Avoid this place at all costs. Do your research find a good mechanic, and go somewhere else. Take my advice as you will, but trust me, do not go here. I went because it was close, what a mistake, Went for a simple oil leak, they replaced my vaccum pump and gasket seal for $1300. Initially tried to charge me for the wrong pump that was $300 more. After my service and two days later it's leaking oil again. They told me to come back to investigate further, but it would cost more. Also charged for 5 hours of labor and it was done in two. Just took my car to another shop and they said it was installed incorrectly and that is the source of the oil leak. So not only did Alternative make it worse they never even looked in the first place. My photos are under my hood when I got home, they didn't even connect the air intakes back. Go to Euro auto, they are fantastic and document everything with pictures as they go. They are also charging me less. To the owner: Great racket you got going on there. read more
