Let me start by saying that there are two segments of businesses that I am ALWAYS leery of: used…read morecar salespersons and auto mechanics. I confess that I am not a trusting person when it comes to these two. With that disclaimer I will now share my experience with Christian Brothers Automotive in West Galleria. I needed to pass my car inspection which failed due to an engine light being lit. My Chevy 2015 Impala needed 2 very expensive repairs. No need to go into any more details because than that. Now about the 2 front desk personnel John and Dave. They were very knowledgeable, friendly and patient in explaining the needed repairs, the cost and the time needed to do the repairs. These two men were OUTSTANDING!! At one instance I needed more info and John very patiently pulled up a YouTube video on my phone to better explain the steps needed to pass. Now that is a very personal touch. They also were able to transport me back and forth for 2 days with no hassle. Now for some amazing news is that for 1 trip they were short handed but out came a guy named Paul who was very friendly in our conversation on the way to the shop. In the process I found out that he is the owner. No wonder everyone was so friendly and professional as the basis was established by the owner. I thought it was so cool to be greeted by my first name as I entered the super clean waiting area. The waiting area was as clean as any doctor's waiting room and the background music was outstanding. Will I be back? ABSOLUTELY!!! My only complain is that I could only give them 5 stars when they really deserve 10 STARS!!! BTW the repairs were done correctly the first time around.

Jim (I think it was - I'm bad with remembering names) was very nice and approachable and treated my car issue like an emergency, halting one project to figure out my car issue. They tested it and found out it was a loose nut and the brake fluid was leaking so fast that I didn't have any left by the time I got to Aamco. I appreciate them so much and how fast they were able to diagnose it. I came in scared with barely any breaks and left within 45 minutes with good brakes again. I will definitely keep them in mind for when I have another issue with my car! Definitely honest and good people are working there! Thank you for blessing me and getting me back out on the road safely!!!! I will never forget!

My repair took five days, and when I went to pick it up, they had discharged my air conditioner and said they couldn't recharge it because their equipment broke.

I've had several negative experiences with this shop in the past, but I do want to acknowledge that…read morethey seem to be making an effort to address those issues and take accountability. Previously, I encountered a number of problems here, including being directly misled by management, incorrect parts being installed, repairs not being properly completed, and my vehicle leaving the shop with new issues after service. Because of those experiences, it has been very difficult for me to fully trust the shop again. That said, the president, Richard Provencio, did personally reach out to me regarding my experience. He issued a partial refund and informed me that the manager who had been misleading me was terminated. I do appreciate that level of accountability. I recently decided to return to the shop after another mechanic inspected my car and mentioned possible oil seepage from the timing cover gasket and play in the control arms, both of which were repairs this shop had supposedly performed in the past. When I returned, I was told that my warranty had expired since their coverage only lasts 28,000 miles and I was now around double that. However, they did perform a complimentary inspection and told me there was no oil seepage and that the other shop may have mistaken dirt for a leak. While I appreciated the inspection, it would have been helpful if they had at least cleaned the area so we could verify whether a leak might return. Dustin did a good job explaining everything and was respectful during the visit, which I appreciated. At this point, though, I'm still unsure what to think overall. Unfortunately, less than a week after my visit, my vehicle overheated. I had it towed to another shop, where they told me the water pump and thermostat needed to be replaced. The water pump was supposedly replaced by this shop previously, but the thermostat was never replaced, something I was later told is typically done at the same time. There seems to be a pattern where every time I come here for a repair, another issue follows shortly after. My vehicle is a W205 Mercedes-Benz, and at this point I'm just feeling skeptical. I understand the shop now has a new team and is under new management, and I do appreciate the effort to make things right. However, given everything that has happened, I'm still very hesitant.

Gary's shop was recommended to me by a friend who's big into the offroad 4x4 scene. You figure if…read morea shop can make tough transmission for those rigs, they can make a lightly modified one for a street car, and you'd be right! Gary is a pleasant, well spoken guy that's enjoyable to talk to. His shop is pretty clean considering the mess that comes with working on a gearbox. I was pleasantly surprised to get my transmission wrapped up in a thick plastic bag so it won't have a chance of messing up my cargo area. And the end result is that I got a transmission that shifts better than what the factory gave me! The price was spot on, probably very similar to the major chain stores. But what really matters is that Gary's shop didn't treat me like a pinata, they told me what it would cost, made a great transmission, added a part that I wanted later on (a different pan) and the price didn't change. There were no surprises!
