Serious Concerns with Billing Practices & Unprofessional Conduct My experience with Sterling McCall Acura's service department raises serious concerns regarding both customer treatment and potential insurance billing practices. This specifically involves service advisor Antonio Mora and service manager Don Morrell. I brought my 2024 Acura MDX in due to a significant water intrusion issue that had already resulted in visible mold forming under the carpet. This is not a cosmetic issue -- it is a health and safety concern. From the beginning, the level of professionalism was unacceptable. Antonio Mora was consistently rude, dismissive, and uncooperative, to the point that even my State Farm insurance adjuster documented his behavior as rude in their official report. Now to the most concerning issue -- inconsistent and questionable pricing: Initial estimate (customer pay): * Water leak repair (including labor): $975.17 * Replace all wet/mold-damaged carpet: $2,353.05 * Replace missing rear carpet: $593.70 * Total: $3,921.92 After filing a claim with State Farm, the scope of work was reduced, yet the pricing structure changed in a way that raises serious red flags. Insurance-approved estimate: * $3,510 to repair the leak and clean the carpet * NO carpet replacement included Despite a reduction in scope, I was told that labor hours had significantly increased (for example, allegedly 10 hours just to remove the headliner) -- even though the original quote to repair the leak including labor was only $975.17. This creates a clear and troubling discrepancy: * Less work being performed * Significantly higher labor allocation * A similar total payout from insurance This raises the question of whether labor hours and repair costs were intentionally adjusted once insurance became involved in order to maximize reimbursement. Meanwhile, I am left with a vehicle that still contains mold-affected carpet, meaning the underlying issue impacting my health and vehicle condition has not been properly resolved. To be clear: * The dealership has received thousands of dollars * The repair was downgraded from replacement to "cleaning" * I am left with unresolved damage and potential health risks This is not acceptable, and it warrants further scrutiny. Due to these inconsistencies, I am exploring escalation options, including: * Filing a formal complaint with Acura Corporate * Submitting documentation to the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) * Reporting the matter to the Texas Attorney General Consumer Protection Division * Requesting a full audit of the claim and repair billing through State Farm I strongly advise others to proceed with caution when dealing with this service department. Transparency, consistency, and professionalism were completely lacking in this experience.

Look at those smiling faces!

We had such a great experience at Sterling McCall Acura all thanks to Muhammad Shafiqui. My husband and I have been looking for an Mdx base since we moved to the area in July. When my husband started reaching out to different dealerships Muhammad was the only sales consultant who kept in contact with my husband when the base finally came in. He cintacted us as soon as the car got delivered to give it a test drice. By the end of the night, we drove home with our new 2023 mdx. He was amazing to work with and even fought to get us a great price for our trade in. He wasn't pushy and was completely understanding. He stayed later after hours since we came near closing time. Thank you Muhammad for all your help! He was so great that my parents even came back the VERY NEXT DAY to buy their own mdx. We couldn't be happier with our experience.

Dammy and Darrell provided great customer care and helped us find the perfect RDX for my son. Darrell Babineaux took 30 minutes to sit with us in the RDX and go over all questions and concerns. He showed us all the controls and made us feel like this was the car for us. Darrell is kind and personable and will take his time to help you with the process too. Highly recommend!

See all

They charged $380 for diagnostic fee that was incorrect and overpriced. I won't be coming back here ever and I suggest you avoid

Recently moved to Houston and with my unfortunate luck, I started having car issues after an…read moreextremely spendy repair earlier this year. I decided to go to Lam's Auto Repair per a friend's recommendation and I'm really glad I did. Mr. Lam was able to inspect my car after I walked in on a Saturday morning. After 15 minutes he told me what was wrong and what needed to be done. I unfortunately also bought the wrong headlights but he was able to find some to replace them with in the shop. I decided to walk over to the lovely restaurants nearby while I waited and I was luckily able to get my car fixed within hours. His prices are very reasonable and he was very kind. The customer service was definitely worth driving across town for!

The mechanic here is top-notch, handling everything from general maintenance to more complex jobs like engine and transmission repair, A/C fixes, suspension work, and even bodywork. Not only is the work always done right, but the prices are incredibly fair--I've always felt like I'm getting a great deal. Lam, the mechanic has also taken care of my personal vehicles, a Lexus GX460, a Toyota, a BMW 550i, and a Mercedes with the same level of care and expertise. It's rare to find someone so dependable and skilled, and I highly recommend this shop to anyone in need of honest, high-quality auto repair. Make sure to find the right Lam's Auto Repair on 6819 S Kirkwood Road! He will take care of you!

Best and most professional mechanic I have ever worked with!…read more I called Andre on a Monday is regards to my battery light coming on and off. I explained to him what the car was also doing. Without hesitation, he informed me of what he thought the problem was. Sure enough, his pre-diagnosis over the phone was correct. I had originally wanted to set up an appointment for the following weekend. However, I had some free time a few days later and without hesitation he agreed to meet me that same day I asked if we could move the appointment to an earlier date. Upon meeting, we shook hands and he went straight to work. In about 1 1/2 hours my car was ready to go! He had also found a part that I needed to replace ASAP, but the part was special order. It was such an easy thing to fix, that he taught me how to do it myself. From the beginning to the end, Andre is a top mechanic. He was honest, courteous, professional and even taught me how to do a simple fix myself so that I could save myself some money. All that tells me that he genuinely cares about his customers. Tisdell's Mobile Mechanic is in my number one mechanic to go to. I know you won't be disappointed!

I requested a quote and this was through the Yelp feature that 4 additional businesses responded to the request. Tisdell was one of them and had beat the other quotes. SINCE THEY HAD A 5 STAR ON YELP I DECIDED TO PURSUE THEM BUT THE RATING WAS SO DECEIVING! Red Flag 1: The spokesperson(or maybe the owner) Andre first asked me to communicate via text since her was not active on Yelp. Red Flag 2: Then when I asked him to schedule an appointment via voice, he had me say the agreed amount and that I agree to pay ( that was awkward, trust me). During this verbal agreement, he left out one of the services in the quote and when I asked for it he added another $100 to the cost! When confronted with the snapshot of the Yelp quote he agreed to the original quoted price and said that he misquoted but he will honor it. Red Flag 3: NO SHOW! Yes - he never showed up! Giving him the benefit of the doubt, I called to reschedule which he did. But guess what? He cancelled the day of the appointment. I decided to give it one last chance and rescheduled again. But this time, I WAS GHOSTED! I guess it wasn't worth all the effort after all!
