The tow truck driver, Bennie, did a great job. Picked up my junk car the same day and did not haggle on price.

Used Frank's mobile repair for the first time for an oil change and brake issue. They were super…read morequick to get out to me and get the repairs done, even in the extreme heat. Also very helpful when my warranty company needed additional invoices. The price was also a good value. Will definitely use their services again if needed!

In regard to your response Frank I'll expose again why no one should use you. To start I used you…read moreafter the break issue we resolved to give you a shot. I bring up that brake issue because it eventually became a pattern of dropping the ball, and repeated issues 1. My car had to be towed because basic logic well known issue for GMC/Chevy 6.2 liter V8 engines have a lifter issue which requires engine replacement. The car wasn't in bad shape as you say. Cadillac dealership said I should have it towed due to the knocking sound. My car has always been kept immaculate. Yes you quoted a fair price, it was Lambs in Lakeway that was ridiculous and most people know they are. The engine took long because they sent the wrong engine and in regards to my finances it wasn't I couldn't pay . I was at the mercy of you and I was nothing but polite every single interaction with you. Your dropped the ball so many times and you actually asked me for advance payment at one point because you needed to pay your taxes . I didn't want to pay you UPFRONT Frank. You fix then pay, that's most every way it's done . You didn't have the money to cover costs which is a concern regarding running a business. I had also just spent money on another car repair and boat repairs . The car sat as I decided what I wanted to do. As far as stating you could have charged me storage you never once mentioned that and I have every phone call that proves that. Pretty shady of you to pull that out on your reply here. Again not on single time did you ever mention storage fees. So please don't act as if it was some favor you did. The car went in for an engine replacement. As you confirmed the day you put the engine in to test drive you call me telling me I need steering column replacement. Yes I have you on recording Frank stating that indeed the lift and big tires were the culprit. The steering was completely fine and it had not been driven once per you as we waited for the engine issue and replacement to be resolved. You now understand why I recorded you. You can't remember what you told me. I didn't struggle to pay you. I had a boat in repair and another car a Range Rover in repair. I communicated to you very professionally. By the way let's remember you had me pay up front on everything. It was the engine that was ordered that was delayed. 2. Regarding the transmission line. Let the public see this post. I pick up my car from Frank and I make it about a quarter to half a mile or so down road and what becomes the problem is the transmission line. Frank I have that call to you recorded as well and your claim that I accelerated or false and blew the line is total BS. It had nothing to do with big tires. I'm saving all my facts, statements from GM certified techs , and video of your guy coming over to "fix" it. Within a day or 2 it went out again and I made you tow it for free. It was your guy that you sent and had him do what he did and sent me on my way and that all was fine only to have it sent back to you. By the way on our recorded call you tried to lead me to believe with certainty it was one thing when in fact you were wrong and called me with another reason. Again grateful I recorded both those conversations. The reputable mechanics I discussed were my brothers out of Houston. My brother owns a professional garage and luxury and collector car biz for 22 years. The other reputable people was a connection I had out of A Cadillac dealer in Dallas. I mentioned this to you and so logically my car stayed locally with you. 3. The whole issue about you spending 200 for the detail I will just say to anyone reading this look at the pics of my Escalade left in his care. Never should have happened Frank. By the way I took a time stamp video of my car before it went back to you. I didn't spill the oil. That's a regular engine oil. Why would I need engine oil to leave in my backseat after you just repaired and did an engine replacement. Again shady of you to blame that on me. And by the way I had to waste 3 hours of my work day sitting there waiting on a detail. Completely unprofessional. 4. I asked you you fix my windshield wiper motor while you had it. You never did. I kept asking you very time you had the car and I have your texts alone that show you forgot several times. same thing Frank regarding the transmission thermostat. I asked you several times, you came out to fix my running board and forgot to get the transmission thermostat and windshield motor. Again pretty crazy you fixed my transmission yet our texts show you dropping the ball on the thermostat. I have lost count on the amount of texts I have that show you never show up on time. I'm done with my response. I'll update this post after claims court.

Just recently I needed to replace 3 u-joints on our SUV's rear driveshaft. For some reason, the…read morebearing caps at 2 of the yoke positions wouldn't completely unseat. I tried everything *wiping the sweat off of my brows* short of welding a bolt onto each of them so I'd have something to clamp onto to pry them off. If I knew how to weld I probably would've done exactly that, LOL! Anyhow, I decided to take the driveshaft assembly to a local auto shop I happen to drive past regularly. After the service advisor explained the situation and task to the tech, I headed to the lobby to await the completion of the repair job. Shortly afterwards, I noticed that same tech peek into the lobby towards the advisor as if he needed to talk to him about 'something' but the advisor was on the phone at the time. After the advisor hung up the phone I mentioned that the tech might be in need of his attention. He walked into the work area then immediately walked back into the lobby with 'that look'. He said the tech inadvertently damaged the yoke because the power tool, "slipped". I walked over to inspect the damage. What really pissed me off is the tech shrugged it off without a word, not even an apology. He just walked off like nothing happened. The advisor apologized but in principle he wasn't the one that damaged the yoke. The advisor then mentioned 'Drivetrain Specialists' in Buda could repair the driveshaft but there was no mention of them taking responsibility for the damage their tech caused. After all, I brought in a good driveshaft with bad u-joints, not a bad driveshaft with bad u-joints. I didn't have time nor the patience to argue about the tech's rookie mistake. The advisor made a few phone calls in an attempt to locate a replacement driveshaft assembly but thats about it; none were in stock. I agreed to go to Drivetrain Specialists the next morning. It was an hour away but I needed to get this done. I arrived at Drivetrain Specialists at the crack of dawn. Once Mr. Cantrell, the owner, looked at the damage he said, "Sorry, I can't fix this, it's friction welded." I was internally VERY P I S S E D. Not at Mr. Cantrell but the shop that jacked up my driveshaft. An OEM replacement is no longer available and I'm not too fond of aftermarket components, especially when it comes to crucial mechanical parts like a driveshaft. My only other option was a custom built driveshaft. Thankfully, they have the capability to build one. Mr. Cantrell quoted me a really fair price and said it'd be ready in a few days because they'd need to order some special parts to build my shaft. I left and went straight to the shop that busted up my driveshaft and demanded they be responsible for at least 1/2 of the cost for the custom build. They agreed and because of that, I've opted not to name them in this write up or bash them on their Yelp page... I'll forgive them that much. A few days came and I picked it up. After negotiating traffic and arriving home I crawled under our rig and bolted in the new custom driveshaft; perfect fit! Mannn, I should've just bypassed the local shop and went to these guys in the first place. They absolutely know what they're doing and the pricing was fair. The build quality is very good and the driveshaft works as intended. The guys and the office lady I met at the shop were all very nice folks. I have no issues referring people to them. I won't be referring anybody to the other shop, thats for sure. Great job y'all! Thanks again! Our trail rig is performing great once again because of y'alls expertise! Cheers!

They did an awesome job and were able to help me out very quickly! With the drive out to them!read more
