I needed to change my rear break light. I already had the bulb since I had purchased a two-pack previously. The last time I needed it replaced, the auto parts shop did it for me, so I figured it'd be something easy. Firestone wanted to charge me $60 and refused to use my bulb (apparently it's against their policy). I went to Encinas and they were able to tell me when they could work on my car. Since it was the same day, I asked them to rotate my tires as well. I sat in their waiting area working on my laptop and they were done in under 30 minutes. I realized I hadn't asked how much they'd charge me and at the end, they refused to charge me anything! This kind of customer service is so unheard of nowadays. They've definitely gained a customer. Highly recommend! read more

Encinas Automotive - Tires Near Me - Tulsa, Oklahoma

The initial interaction was rude to say the least. Upon inquiring if this shop took appointments or not, the owner seemed rude and hung up abruptly as if this isn't a reasonable question to ask any shop relating to vehicle repair. There are a few people here and there who claim positive interaction with this place but based upon the environment and ownership, I would assume this only pertains to particular groups of people. read more

Highly recommend this car shop! Honest, affordable, and genuinely good people. The pricing is always very fair. It's hard to find mechanics you can truly trust these days, and this shop definitely earned my business going forward. read more

I am glad I discovered Encinas Automotive. They are the best mechanics I have found, and the most honest , in Tulsa County in the 20 years I have lived here. I drive over 25 miles to get to their garage because all the people here in Collinsville and Owasso are just not up to par. I take all three of my vehicles to them for anything that comes up. Thank you Mike and Jeremy for giving us quality automotive repair that we can trust and rely on. Chuck Caton , Colllinsville OK read more

The bright spot in our day was Eddy Encinas the owner/mechanic. Traveleing with a trailer we discovered an oil leak from the auxillary transmission cooler line on our 2021 Nissan Armada. Lucky for us when we pulled of Hiway 260 in Cottonwood there was Encinas Automotive and Transmission. Eddy looked at the problem and immediately brought the car into the shop. The leak was expertly repaired and the transmisison filled with Nissan transmission fluid. Eddy also caringly cleaned up the 5 qts of leaked oil that covered the underside of the Armada from the front to the back as well as cleaning the drip pan. The bill was very reasonable, reminded me of how repair shops used to be. Thank you very much Eddy, you saved our day !! read more

Very honest and knowledgeable. I have taken them several of my vehicles over the years and they always do a great job for an affordable price. read more

They saved our trip! My wife and I took a road trip from Indiana to Ca, our goal was to make it to Amarillo on day 1, but when we got to Tulsa the AC was blowing hot. After a stop at Autozone for a can of Freon, I quickly learned that the ac compressor was the issue and got a recommendation from Autozone for a local mechanic, they said Encinas. Drove straight there. I explained my woes and Jeramy assured us they could get to it the next morning. Ugh. We had to spend a night and lost a day, but, they were able to get us in as promised and found the part. We were on the road leas than 24 hours from when we stopped, and wouldn't have made it without the great service and skilled technicians at Encinas. 5 stars! Thanks guys. read more

This auto shop is fantastic. I've gone here for years and they've always done me right and treated me with respect. They always tell me up front the cost and keep their word on timelines. read more

I've taken my vehicles to Encinas a few times over the years and they have always performed great quality work. Most recently I needed a fuel pump replacement for my pickup. The charges for parts & labor were very fair and reasonable. I highly recommend bringing your vehicle to Encinas Automotive -- they'll treat you right! read more

I would give this company 0 stars if I could! Took my car in for a tune up and was told to wait a few days and it took 6 days for them to tell me to pick my car up. Called them and they said they had trouble getting a part off and they had to send it way out on Sheridan somewhere without asking me! Picked my car up and drove it the same day I picked it up and it died .My boyfriend checked it out and said it looks like they stole my motor. Had the car towed back to them which I had to pay for btw for them to tell me my motor was gone and to get it off their lot! Fucking Assholes read more

Great group at Encinas! I really appreciate their help. Fair prices and solid work. Highly recommend their shop.

2008 Volvo S40 - This is the third vehicle I have brought to Encinas for repair over a number of years. And each time they have been fair in pricing and communicated what the timeline looked like for repairs. read more

If you want a good mechanic that doesn't try to scam you then Encinas is a great mechanic for you

OK, so I've got a 27 year old Jeep. Bought it new and still love it. It's my daily driver. Died the other night. Had it towed to Encinas. I've been looking for a mechanic for awhile and had been considering Encinas. They're near me, and they have really good reviews. First good sign was on the way over, the tow truck driver said he's towed cars there before and the people'd had good outcomes. They fixed it the next day. The 27 year-old crankshaft position sensor had given up the ghost. Runs great, but did they screw me on the cost? They charge 135.00 an hour, which is on the high side, but it's the quality of the work and how many hours they hit you for that really matter. The last place that worked on my Jeep only charged me 75.00 an hour, but I dropped my Jeep off at 7:30am and he called and told me it was ready at 4pm, but he charged me for 13 hours labor. Seemed mathematically improbable. Encinas charged me for an hour's labor to diagnose and fix my problem. That's about right. Tells me they're honest, and also tells me the mechanic they put on it is experienced. It's really easy for even an honest mechanic to burn up a bunch of time diagnosing a problem. Another place shops make money is on parts. That last shop that worked on my Jeep? Charged me 300 bucks for a new alternator he'd paid 95 bucks for. Dumbass left the box and receipt in my Jeep, along with a really nice Phillips-head screwdriver (which I kept!) Shops get a discount from parts stores. They generally pay 10-20% less than what you or I would. The industry standard is for a shop to then mark the part up 10-20% over what that list price is. Encinas put the part number of the crankshaft sensor they put on my Jeep on the receipt. It's a good practice dishonest shops never do. I looked it up, and they'd marked it up about 20% over retail. On the high end, but on the high end of honest and fair. Look, I am cheap. I only shop at Dollar Tree when there's a Groupon. My BVDs have more holes in 'em than a collander. I'm cheap. The thing I've seen over and over in my life, though, is that being cheap often costs me. Like with the 75.00 an hour mechanic I last took my Jeep to. Man, it is so hard to find a shop to take care of your vehicle that is both honest and good. The older your car is, the more important that becomes. These guys are honest and good. I will definitely be back. Also, I was jokin' around and asked about my AARP discount, and he knocked 10% off! Thing is, I don't actually have an AARP card. Too cheap to spend the 14.99 a year for it. Now I feel so bad I just ordered one. read more

I have been taking my vehicles to them for over 30 years. They work well car warranty services especially Endurance. They were able to help me get another transmission for truck with no problems and the owners said that they had no problems with Endurance after the claim was filed also after all the work was done all I had to pay was a $158 deductible read more

Great mechanics! Fast and honest! They've cared for my Mustang and Ford Ranger pick up for years! read more

Honest, efficient and friendly. We have taken our cars here over the years and always pleased with the service.

These guys are fully honest, do expert work, and have unbeatable prices. Multiple times they sent us away not charging anything. If I can't fix it, I send my mom and sister here! read more

Very friendly owner. Never been here before but he got me in quickly to check out my vehicle to make sure it was safe to drive before a long distance family trip. read more

The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because I just had a minor repair, so I can't say for sure... Having said that, Mike (the owner) is honest and forward. Here is my story. You decide if you want to try them out. I've had some sort of problem with my wife's car. Tire kept on going flat. So, during the winter storm this past week, I just gave the wife the keys to the 4x4. Told her I would take care of her's. Whoops! The reality was that it was just a leaky value stem. Not something you can fix with a can of Fix A Flat. So I take it to Encinas, just because it was near. They fixed me up ASAP. Did you read that? They fixed me us ASAP. The owner came out and talked with me. There was no high pressure sales tactics. Just an honest man who told me about my car. Now here's the kicker. Please don't get me wrong, your milage may vary. Total charge.... FIVE DOLLARS. As I said, don't go in there thinking you are going to save major money if something is seriously wrong with your car. Maybe you will... However, these guys were HONEST CLEAN FRIENDLY What more could you ask for. The next time I have car problems, I'm going to them. And if I'm treated like I was today, I'll gladly change that to five stars. read more

I didn't realize I hadn't reviewed Encinas! Well let's rectify that sitchu, stat! I can't remember who recommended them to me years ago, or I would thank them here. I have a 2001 Suburban (aka the Green Beast) that serves as my gameday to Stillwater and Labrador hauling vehicle. When you own an older vehicle, there is nothing that is more of a blessing than having a trusted repair shop you can depend on. I was referred to Encincas around 2007, when the Beast needed a new antenna, a window wasn't rolling down, and a few other minor issues. The antenna had been knocked off in the infamous ice storm, but according to the dealership, it was not a simple matter of replacing it. They needed to take apart the door panel and get into the inner workings of the car (I'm paraphrasing) to remove a piece of the old antenna that was still stuck in there at a cost of several hundred dollars. Due to the age of the vehicle, they also recommended about $700 worth of "carbon flushing" whatever that is. I came away stunned, thinking about just selling the vehicle. Along came Encinas. I took the car in and explained all the issues, and asked about the carbon flushing. The guy at the counter burst out laughing. "Those dealerships!" he chuckled. "Always wanting to flush something!" Encinas proceeded to stick on a new antenna for $60 (including the price of the antenna and without dismantling the car) and fix the other minor issues all for hundreds and hundreds less than what I had been quoted. Regarding the carbon flushing...maybe that's a thing, but 8 years after it was recommended the Beast seems no worse for wear having skipped it. I have had nothing but good experiences at this shop. Especially if you have an older vehicle, I can't recommend them more highly. They get things done quickly, and they are straight shooters. If it's not necessary, they won't recommend it. They will got the extra mile to get your repair done for the most reasonable cost possible. The last real major repair on the Beast involved something called a clock spring and Chevy does not make it anymore and they were unable to find the part very cheaply. The mechanic on the phone sounded more upset about the cost than I was. If you have vehicular woes, I recommend Encinas as your cure! read more

Sigh. I hate writing this because I know that MIke is a good guy, and it's an honest shop. Those things are important. But I just can't justify my experience there this week. I called Monday to find out if they could do work on a car like mine, and briefly explained some of my concerns. They said they could. They said if used the night drop, they would call me the next day if I left my number. So I dropped my car off Monday night with a typed note of the things I would like to have them check, and my phone number. Tuesday at 5 PM, I still hadn't heard from them. So I called. I was informed that someone should have called me. They had to order the part, and someone would call me in the morning. No one called me in the morning. Wednesday at 5 PM, I called again. They explained that the part wouldn't be in until Thursday because it was a dealership specific part.I also had them double check my phone number, since no one had called me. Thursday I called at 5 PM. The guy said he thought the work was done on my car, but the person who was working on it was out at the moment. They'd call me as soon as they got back. Of course, they didn't call me. NO ONE called me until Friday morning. And that was to tell me that they didn't have the equipment to finish what they had started. I had to make recommendations where they could find out how to finish the work. They called the place I suggested and found out how to complete that part of the work. They called me a few hours later to tell me that they had finished the first part only to discover that I needed an additional part that they could NOT install. I went to pick up my car. He asked me how much he had quoted me. I explained that he hadn't given me a quote ever. In fact, it was the first day they had called me. Then I asked if they had fixed the other item that was on the typed note. The note was still laying there on the desk in front of him. He had no idea what I was talking about. I just pointed to it on the note. I paid and left. It was really, really disappointing. 1. I had specifically asked if they could work on it before I brought it in. 2. No one called me until Friday. 3. No one ever gave me a quote. 4. The didn't check everything I asked them to, even though I LITERALLY WROTE IT DOWN! I really don't know what to even do with that. How much clearer could I have been? Of course, getting it back at 3:30 PM on Friday before Labor Day weekend doesn't do me any good. Now I can't take it to anyone who REALLY CAN work on it until Tuesday. Encinas wasted more than a week of my time and really let me down. They know better. read more

An honest and cheap repair shop, located in a convenient neighborhood. Most repair shops, I'm asking questions, Googling prices, trying to haggle, etc etc. Not here, after a few trips here and reading the online reviews, I know that Mike is going to give me a rock-bottom price and only do what NEEDS to be done. I can actually trust what he says. The one criticism I have is that they will not alert you to preventative maintenance problems you may have. This is good b/c you won't get tricked into spending extra on unneeded stuff, but they also won't go do an in-depth inspection of the car to find potential future issues unless you ask for it. read more

Great, fast and honest service. My boyfriend will only take his car here, and now so will I!

Took my daughter's 07 Honda Accord to replace rear control arms and they did a great job and let me know off any other things before committing to the repair. They did not pressure me to upsale any items. I would highly recommend going there and intend to return with other business as needed. read more

DO NOT GO HERE! I have not been to this place in years because every single time I took my car in to have something fixed, within 2 weeks something else would go wrong with it. I used to think my car was a POS, but in reality Encinas was the POS. read more

I recently moved to Tulsa, OK, and have been looking for a trustworthy auto shop the whole time I have been here. I had a faulty headlight and had searched far and wide, but had either been quoted outrageous amounts or just not found helpful customer service at other auto shops. I finally stumbled upon Encinas, and found my auto shop for life here in Tulsa. I came to Encinas and they took care of me all the way through. They fixed my car's issue for no charge. I talked with one of the employees, Jeremy, and he insisted no charge, because they believe in honest and good work and relationships with their customers. Jeremy also told me how this shop has been a family-operated business for 27 years now which not many auto shops can say about themselves. I suggest Encinas to anyone who has been looking for that auto shop they can fully trust. This place will have my business as long as I'm in Tulsa. read more

I was looking for a mechanic that was honest and diligent. I believe I found just that. They found the issue with my car and called multiple times to keep me in the loop. I felt like they were trying to save me money, and my car has run like a champ ever since! read more

Love these guys. I waited at the bar next door while my truck was being fixed and Mike came into the bar to tell me my truck was done. Good people. read more

My family has been going here for years. If you're looking for someone who's honest and who'll give it to you straight, It's Mike. That's rare to find, unfortunately. They will never suggest anything you don't need and you're never caught in the dreaded situation of not being able to get to the source of the problem so they recommend trying one thing after another until you've spent hundreds of dollars and you still have the same problem. Never going to happen here. Prices are great and they are fast. The only thing I'd recommend is disposable paper mats so I don't have to put paper sacks down. Mike has been so generous and I can't rate them high enough. read more

I had my truck vandalized and needed to get it repaired so I could use it. Talked with Mike who assisted me by trying to find parts and save some money as compared to what a dealership quoted. Mike made numerous calls as the main part was difficult to find, but his persistence paid off. I was able to get it fixed for @ 1/3 the cost. I dropped the truck off at 10:00 AM and it was finished by 2:00 PM the same day. read more

Two of our tires were slashed one evening thanks to some neighborhood punks and we needed new tires ASAP. I called and spoke to Mike - he was extremely patient and very helpful. Most of the time when I call automotive shops, they can be rude, impatient, and I feel rushed when speaking to them. Mike actually took the time to help me figure out which tire it was that we needed to order. We came in the next morning for the new tires and were out of there within an hour. They helped make an unfortunate situation as pleasant as possible and I would highly recommend them. read more

this is a repair shop you can count on to do fast, dependable work at a VERY fair price.They don't give you alot of runaround, they told me my 1990 Toyota was a great car that would last me forever if I just make sure the fluids are filled. Mike, the owner, told me not to spend alot of money on this OLD car, and I feel as if he is honest, trustworthy, and tries to help I wouldn't go anywhere else, he doesn't try to find things wrong that he could charge me to fix, Recently I had to have the clutch replaced, the only major repair I've every had to do on this car, and he even did an additional repair , at no charge. I love this place, give it a try. read more

I chose to take my car to Encinas Automotive based on a friend's recommendation. And, I'm sure glad I did. Mike & his crew finished the repairs speedily and at reasonable cost. I felt completely comfortable leaving my car in their hands. And, I'll certainly be returning in the future. Do yourself a favor & consider these guys. read more

Great place, overall. Crew is very honest and they really know their stuff. Will continue to bring my truck back when it needs something I can't fix at home. read more

I had to have my car towed to Encinas while I was at work to have the radiator replaced. While fixing the radiator, the alternator light came on and it was found to be bad as well. Knowing I had barely come up with cash for the radiator, Mike offered to go ahead and replace the alternator and let me pay that out later. He said he hated letting me drive off knowing my car could be unsafe. He'd never met me face to face and offered this. I'm extremely happy with them as a mechanic and humanitarian. I'd recommend them to anyone. GOOD JOB GUYS!!! read more

My family and I have been taking our cars to Encinas for as long as I can remember. The guys who work there are solid and genuine people. Different occasions where my mom had to be towed in and someone there would pick her up so she didn't have to try and walk back to get her car. (We live only about a mile away). They never try to add unnecessary chargers and are always quick to get people in. With every oil change they always rotate my tires and check all fluids. To anyone looking for a new auto shop or who is new to Tulsa, I would highly recommend Encinas. read more

Great place. Mike and the crew at Encinas have been my go-to auto repair shop for at least 5 years now. I think I found them by accident, when one of my tires went flat thanks to a nail I picked up in my construction-heavy neighborhood. They repaired the puncture with some fix-a-flat type product, checked my air pressures all around, and then sent me on my way in no time. And I remember being shocked at how little it cost me. I seem to recall there being close to no charge at all, so definitely in the 5 dollar range, if not free. At any rate, Mike's generosity sold me on the place, and I've been coming back ever since. And whenever I've gotten second opinions from other mechanics, I've always found that Encinas reports the fewest number of repairs needed. Long story short, if you want someone whom you can trust working on your vehicle, take it to Encinas. read more

I just went to Encinas this afternoon to replace a few tires. They were incredibly kind, quick and very reasonably priced. I would recommend them to anyone looking to save money and support a friendly, local establishment! read more

I was impressed with this mechanic shop. I had taken my car several places, and they just ran codes and told me I would have to take it to the dealership. I was told about this place by a friend and am glad I did. They fixed my car and it is running better than it has in years! I felt they were very honest and did a great job. I plan to use them for a long time! read more
