You can trust Procter Automotive to service your vehicle. I wasn't fond of driving to Lubbock for maintenance. I am a widow of a husband that did everything car related. I have never felt I was taken advantage of, and certainly approve of my BMW being locked up in a well-lit parking lot across from the shop, if they have no room inside. , whose husband took care of servicing the cars. I have never felt taken advantage of pricewise. I love the fact they keep your car overnight in a fenced well lighted parking lot across from Procter automotive. With all the crime happening, it's nice to know that my vehicle is safe. read more

This is a first class operation for great auto repair. Always a detailed estimate provided before work is done. Complete trust in their service. read more

Love Proctor automotive. Great personal service and quality work. None better! The people here care about you as if you were their family. They also provide a great service of taking me to work when I drop off my car for service, and picking me up when the work on my vehicle is completed. read more

Very happy with the service received at Proctor Automotive. Jay did a good job of letting me know what needed to be done, and the work was done promptly at a fair price. We've used them before, and will use them again when we need vehicles serviced. read more

Really happy with them. Everyone I talked to said that was the place to take a SmartCar for repair. They got it taken care of and oil changed. We also asked them to diagnosis the AC, but the processor was out. Didn't opt to repair that due to cost. They took care of the other issues with no problem. One thing that I really liked, the gentleman kept me informed as to what was going on the whole time. Called and asked what we wanted to do and the cost for the options. About as close to me having to do the work as possible. read more

I had another shop mess up my brakes on my Audi S4 and needed to find qualified professionals to repair the previous botched job. They didn't charge me for additional services that weren't necessities and replaced the caliper and rotors in a timely fashion. The service people and technicians were very professional with a nice shop. I'm glad I found a shop relatively close to home where I could take my specialty cars to. read more

Excellent experience getting my state inspection done. Shop looks clean and professional. I'd go back

A leaking radiator with over 1000 miles remaining on our cross country trip brought us to Procter. They went above and beyond by not only getting the repair done quickly, but also in taking care of us in a strange city with no car. A good mechanic is worth their weight in gold. These people are priceless. read more

If you have a BMW and you think you're going to save money by bypassing the BMW dealership... you better think twice. I paid $2,000 for an A/C problem and problem was not fixed. All I got was an "I'm sorry." I got the feeling they do not know anything about imports. I suggest you take your BMW to the people who work on BMW's on a daily basis. read more

Trustworthy place that does good work. Got my front end aligned today and they did a great job. Jimmy and Chris wont do you wrong! read more

Procter Automotive - Auto Repair Near Me - Abilene, Texas

I didn't know we had a wonderful place to take "foreign" cars! I took my Land Rover in, and learned they knew exactly what they were doing. Excellent & professional service. And, my bill would have been twice as much in Dallas at the dealership. Thank you Procter Auto! read more

Friendly, excellent service. I'm thankful they work on BMWs! I'll be back with our other cars, too!

Had my BMW looked at multiple times for a leak with Procter. I only continued to bring my car back in on faith they would fix it, but it never was, I can't afford to keep returning to Procter, my honest advice is to take your vehicle somewhere else in town, despite their friendly service, these guys misdiagnosed a leak three different times. After so many misdiagnoses and being charged for shop time and parts my car never even needed in the first place, I will never return to Procter automotive or suggest them to anyone with a BMW. This is my first time to leave an actual negative review anywhere. For any BMW repair in Abilene consider Private motorsports on Mockingbird read more

What a great experience! Procter was recommended to me by one of their competitors when I asked them who could service Mercedes locally. Apparently, Procter is the only one in town. Their shop is amazingly clean and inviting. Staff are beyond friendly and competent. I received an accurate estimate up front. They were on time and less expensive than the dealerships in the Dallas area. I saved lots of time and money and had a better customer service experience staying local with Procter! read more

When we purchased my Suburban, my husband continued to take it to the dealership as the previous owner had done, instead of Proctor. Several things went wrong that were very upsetting and threatened to ruin my engine. When we brought the car to Proctor, they put everything right again at a fraction of the price the dealership quoted us. I have been taking my vehicles to Proctor automotive for many years now. I always appreciate their honesty, commitment to quality, and awesome customer service. All of my friends agree, Proctor is the best place in Abilene to bring your car for service. read more

As we approached Abilene on I-20 during a cross-country trip, the rear end of our car, pulling a trailer no less, had become so noisy that we couldn't ignore it any longer. We went to a hotel and I found Proctor Automotive on Yelp. The first thing Monday morning I pulled in and asked them to diagnose the noise. It was evident that this was a very busy shop and I wondered if we might not wait around most of the day just for an estimate. The service writer was very courteous and seemed to understand the spot we were in, but said that he couldn't make any promises about turnaround time, given how busy they were. On the way back to my hotel the courtesy driver also gave me little assurance about a speedy repair and told me that Proctor had 8 full-time mechanics working 50 hours per week. Mentally I tried to accept the idea of spending several days in Abilene. No more than an hour later Proctor called with a stethoscope diagnosis that the rear pinion bearing was the source of the noise and they were going to open the cover and look inside with my OK. In another half hour I got another call saying that all the bearings in the rear end must be replaced, given the amount of metal debris they found in the oil. Still no real estimate of how long any repair would take. After another half hour, the owner himself (Jimmy) called to give me the bad and not-so-bad news. The repair was not going to be cheap, but they had located all the parts and he assured me that their rear end mechanic was a real expert who could set it up to operate like new. The best news was that they were going to do their best to get the car out that same day! Sure enough at about 4:00 p.m., I got the call that told me that my car was ready. I could have hugged them all--I guess it's a good thing that I was on the telephone and not talking face-to-face. :^\ The final report is that we put 4500 miles on the repaired rear end, still pulling a trailer, and it never gave us a moment of concern during the rest of our long trip. I was shown some pictures of some of the classic cars that they work on at Proctor. Apparently they even do some restoration work. This is no ordinary shop and they have been around for a long time in Abilene. I wish they were in my home town. read more

I have a new Audi SUV. When the dealership refused to cover a new A/c saying the damage was road hazard ( sooo frustrating) I took it to Proctor. They completed the work in a timely manner , very professional. The price was slightly less than the dealership quote. Would recommend read more

So, I got pulled over TWICE by the local Abilene Dudley DoRights within a span of ten minutes for a headlight that was out. Apparently they had put out an APB to pull over the dangerous Toyota Camry with California license plates and a missing headlight. (The crusading crime fighter told me it was the latter problem for which I was pulled over, but I suspected the former folly of the license plates was the real crime.) I Yelped auto repair shops and found Procter automotive. I got there about 7:15 am, and they had me on the road by 8:00 am, and for half of what I was prepared to spend. So if you have the misfortune of being in Abilene and harassed by the Abilene PO-lice, I highly recommend Procter automotive for their part in keeping Abilene safe from rampant crime committed by visiting Cooper HS graduates with license plates from that stronghold of leftist ideas: California.Told me it was the latter problem read more

Procter Automotive saved the day. Last week I was in Tuscola for the weekend and on Sunday I was headed into Abilene when my car started acting weird and wouldn't run. My husband went into Abilene and asked around(since we are from the Austin area) who would they recommend for car repair and 4 different people replied Procter Auto without hesitation. We showed up Monday morning at Procter Auto and we were greeted with a friendly service advisor Mr. Graham. He assured us that they would get my car fixed as soon as possible. Within an hour we were contacted about what the problem was and before noon I was driving out of the shop and headed back to Austin. I highly recommend Procter Automotive. Great service! read more

They went that extra mile to make sure they found everything wrong with my car. I am appreciative and very thankful that they were able to help me! I will definitely be coming back!! read more

I have a 2012 Mini Cooper, this place is legit and very knowledgeable. The staff here is super friendly!

These guys were so helpful when we took my daughters 07 BMW to them. They fixed everything and called us to update us of any additional problems they found. They checked with us before doing any additional work on it. I would highly recommend them! read more

These guys at Procter really helped me figure out what was wrong with my car when nobody else would. Great customer service! If you are having car problems bring your car here. They helped me even though my car is a rare one. read more

Simply the best shop I've ever dealt with in Abilene, and I've dealt with a lot. Always friendly, professional, honest, and knowledgeable. They're always my pick for maintenance and repairs on my vehicles, and I won't hesitate to recommend them to my friends. read more

I had dropped off my truck to this shop to have them look at my emergency brake line and gas tank. I had ran something over in the road and it scratched my gas tank pretty good and ripped off my emergency brake cable. I asked them to give me an estimate of the repairs and they quoted me $600 just for the emergency brake cable replacement. I asked why it was so high and they said that $300 of it is labor cost. I'm a mechanic that works on jet engines and something as small as an emergency brake cable should not take more than 2 hours with someone with two left hands. The pricing at this shop is absolutely ridiculous and I would not recommend going here if you are looking for a fair and honest mechanic. Side note the emergency brake line for my truck only cost $200 and that's for the entire assembly sent from OEM. I would not recommend going to this overpriced shop. read more

My daughter is a student at Abilene Christian. When her car started acting up I reached out to a few friends living in the area. They wholeheartedly recommended Procter Automotive. She took her vehicle there last year for some minor things and experienced great service. This year when the heavy rains caused flash floods, the water rose quickly and did some damage to some areas of her vehicle. We experienced fair pricing, GREAT communication, and over the top friendliness again. They will be honest with you if nothing is broken. They understand financial constraints and will tell you the "must dos" and what can wait. I'm very pleased with this business and will recommend them to all our nieces and nephews headed to ACU in the future. Have confidence in their honesty and transparency. read more

I was just passing thru town when my car stopped. Proctor Automotive was recommended by AAA. I could not be happier with their work. Just nice honest guys. The work area was clean and they kept me updated on it all. I wish I could package them up and take them with me. read more

I took my 2015 Hyundai Sonota to Procter Automotive after what I thought was my starter went out. Ended up being a faulty battery. The initial inspection was $44, the labor was $77, and $249 for the new battery bringing the total to $380~ after there 10% military/AAA discount. The price of the battery was slightly up charged (found the same one online for $170-200~) but the labor price was fair (AAA battery labor replacement costs are $89-$129, but don't service the Abilene area). Overall the service managers were prompt, respectful, and trustworthy. May be a little tid bit more pricey (although not by much with the discount) then other avenues in this instance but I have confidence they stand by their work. Side note: they quoted 50% less then the Hyundai dealership to replace the starter. Hopefully I won't have to be back but if I have future issues with my vehicle this will be my first stop. read more

They've done me well during my time in Abilene. I feel that they are very honest, their prices are good, they are very friendly, and they always have a warm pot of coffee to help me wake up while I'm waiting for my car. They do a brisk business so sometimes it's hard to get same day appointments, but they do their best. read more

I have been a customer of Proctor Automotive for about 9 years. It is a comfort to do businees with a repair shop that has the highest ethics and honesty. It is also nice to go into a business that you never feel like a stranger. They truly display the Texas spirit. Jimmy and the crew are the nicest people and really make you feel at home when meet with them. If you need service in the Abilene are I would go nowhere else. Five strs arenn't enough, I would give them 100 stars if I could. read more

Highly recommend! My daughter is in college and we are hours away. They took great care of her car and the prices are very reasonable.

They work on my 1967 Camaro all the time. Fast friendly service!

Unfortunately, my check engine light came on when passing through town. The car itself ran fine but I decided to have it looked at to be on the safe side. Procter Automotive has good reviews so I went to them. The guys were extremely nice and fit me in although they were busy, which at the time, I was grateful for. I was confidently told my car had a "bad tank of gas" and that's why my vehicle was throwing codes. I was charged a diagnostic (the codes thrown), fuel cleaner, and a sensor cleaned = $220. The "bad tank of gas" didn't sit well with my husband, but hey, we are no experts. Soon after I left the check engine light came back on (was warmed by Proctor this may happen...weird). When I arrived at my destination, I had another mechanic shop look at my vehicle because I had ran several tanks of good gas through the car and even added another cleaner but the check engine light stayed on. The new mechanic immediately thought it was a different issue so he checked the codes the car threw off to be sure and then some other possible things. Turns out it is a computer problem the dealership needs to handle, nothing mechanical. He also did not charge me for diagnosing the problem since they could not fix it. WOW. Maybe Procter did all they could, but I was charged for unnecessary work and time so it makes it seem like they either guessed or took advantage of the situation. I could have bought a $5 bottle of cleaner on my own and would have gladly just paid labor. So while I hate to give one star because the staff was nice, it just doesn't make up for charging me that much for things the vehicle obviously didn't need. read more

These guys know what they are doing and treat you with respect and honesty during your entire interaction with them. As others have said in reviews, they are always quite busy (generally a good sign at an auto shop) and make no promises about time to finish your vehicle, yet almost always get done in half the time or less with whatever you are having done. They shoot you straight and don't try to pull the wool over your eyes. I highly recommend, and they will continue to get my business. read more

The check engine light came on in my car. Dealership quote $1508, my bill for same repair at Proctor was $230. I was kept updated and repairs were done when promised. I couldn't be happier. read more

Wonderful place! Nice and clean, professional, put together. Had another place in town quote me $330 for a simple fix only requiring some labor. I'm a woman, so I suppose they thought I was stupid. Procter fixed it in a few hours for less than a third of the price. They're to the point, honest, and kind. It doesn't feel shady and you don't have to worry about feeling like you're being taken advantage of. They have a night drop-off option that is a hectic life saver! It's nice to feel like someone still takes pride in their work and charges for the work they do, not crazy amounts for bogus profit. These are the kind of people I want to give my money to. Thank you guys so much! I hope you have continued success in the future and I will continue to recommend you. read more

Trusted them a couple of years ago with my car and they did well. However, this time was not good. Took my car in because it was smoking and they said my head gasket was leaking. Charged me more than my family mechanic back home said they should have. My car never stopped smoking. Called about it and they told me there was stuff on my engine that would have to burn off (why didn't they clean it off?). After a week of smoking, took the vehicle back in and they said it was the power steering hose. Wanted to charge me almost $100 more for the part than what the Honda dealer charges. They completely deny that they misdiagnosed the problem when it was first brought to them. They say that the power steering hose must have come off after I left their shop. Really? Head gaskets can leak slowly for thousands of miles and should be replaced but not an emergency. They usually don't produce smoke like my car was putting off. I didn't use them to replace my power steering hose and won't be using their services any more. They are usually busy and that can be a sign of a good business but maybe they are too busy to do a good job. read more
