    Called 3 times no answer and went straight to voicemail

    DO NOT COME HERE!!! They INTIMIDATE YOU and SCAM YOU!! I left my car here overnight to get my ECU programmed and when I called back the next day at noon they gave me vague explanations that did not make sense as to why they don't think it's the ECU. They say the mechanic is "checking" to "make sure" the ECU is not the problem. As if they are helping me. I let them know that's ok, they can do their thing and let me know when they have an update. When I made that call at noon, the caller ID read "Rider Auto Insurance" on my iPhone. I called them again at 4pm since they told me it would be done by the end of the day and I had not heard back. There was no more caller ID, it only stated "Frisco". I called 3 times and each time it went straight to voicemail, they blocked my phone number all day while they had my car. I know this because I called from a different number and they answered right away and later on after I said something it changed back???? I brush it off and explain I just want an update so I can pick my car up. Then they tell me they hadn't done any of the programming and hadn't even looked at the new ECU yet. They gave me more runaround, vagues statements of "he's making sure" and "checking" and they didn't think it was my ECU but instead my crank pulley system, something I had already confirmed was in perfectly working order. They tried to tell me it would be $800 to fix. When I declined and said I was going elsewhere(at this point I had read the other reviews of them fixing "fake problems" and collecting money for repairs that were never done), visibly upset from being blocked and practically told no when I begged them over the phone to please just do the programming, they then said I owed them $275 for "diagnostics". Nobody even mentioned the word diagnostic or any price whatsoever. I even have our last 8-9 min call recorded where they failed to mention any of this! They began arguing with me and my grandmother, trying to intimidate us into paying them for something they didn't do. He didn't even jack up the car to get a proper view of my pulley system, just stuck his hand under the hood. Their reasoning for the charge was that I was "already going to be down 375 for the ECU when it wasn't gonna work but instead it's just 275". Basically said to me dozens of times that since I was already going to spend 375 they then took it upon themselves to charge me 275 for something I didn't ask for and they didn't inform me they were charging me for. The younger guy even had the audacity to tell me something a long the lines of "if this is how you're acting over such a small amount of money" before getting into his busted ass car to go home with only duck tape holding his bumper up. After ALL THAT, I finally put my car into neutral and get it away from their shop to get towed. They were about to close up their shop with my ECU still inside. He tries to tell me maybe it's in the car while my grandmother is inside. Supposedly while I walk away, my grandmother asks where it is. This man responds to her (him and her being the only people in the building with the door closed) "I don't know, go look for it." For reference my grandmother is about 4ft11in and 60 years old. These people are horrible SCAM artists trying to take advantage of anyone unlucky enough to find their shop. DONT FALL FOR IT

    The lobby is very spacious and clean.

    I popped in a half hour before closing time to get an inspection, and they took care of me with no problem. I'll be back next time I need an oil change or anything else. Thanks to Chuck and his team!

    Nice clean lobby

    See all

Any shop that offers a 10% discount in exchange for a positive review should, in my opinion, be approached with caution. My experience with this shop was far from positive. A truck that had 250,000 miles on it and was showing signs that should have raised some serious questions about a failing head gasket. Instead, I was led through a series of costly repairs that basically treated the symptoms instead of finding the actual problem. Those repairs ultimately failed within a few weeks. They also installed what I believe were cheap aftermarket parts, including the wrong front struts. When I brought it to their attention, instead of taking responsibility and replacing them, they wanted to charge me to install a lift on the rear of the truck to compensate for the front end sitting higher than the rear. WTF? Another big concern was the price and quality of the parts. When I asked about the brand of the parts they were installing, which seemed they were hesitant to reveal, I was surprised to find what appeared to be nearly a 100% markup compared with retail prices. Their invoices also don't identify the brand or manufacturer of the parts, so you really don't know what you're paying for. In my experience, the parts were marked up an unreasonable amount, especially considering the quality. Looking back, I feel like the focus was more on getting me to authorize additional repairs rather than properly figuring out what was actually wrong with the truck, knowing Id probably just cut my losses if I had been told the truth about the head gasket from the beginning. I originally brought my truck here because I was trying to avoid dealership prices. Unfortunately, when I finally took it to the dealership, that's when I learned what was actually wrong with the truck, which was in fact the head gasket and the wrong struts installed. The dealership also asked me if I had ever used a quick sealant in my engine because of the sludge they found in the radiator overflow, the radiator that auto clinique just replaced. I don't have proof, but definitely raised even more concerns about the shop practices. I was so hopeful that I had found an honest shop, but sadly, I'd have to say they are far from it. And Ray, I'm not interested in you telling me how you offer a year warranty on your parts and repairs. Thank you

Had to call Roadside Assistance to jump it so I could get to O'Reilly's Auto Parts for a new battery before they closed. They said it was the alternator not the battery. Contacted DFW Mobile Repair and Hamm responded immediately with a price quote to fix it. Set up the appointment for mid-afternoon the next day, July 5th (Sunday, on a holiday weekend). Hamm was certainly knowledgeable, and after testing, said it was BOTH the battery and alternator. He replaced the alternator (which he had brought, having had my prior information as to car and model) and then drove to O'Reilly's nearby for a replacement battery which he then installed. In short, Hamm was responsive, capable, courteous and efficient. DFW saved the day (although I lost most of the holiday weekend with the problem!). Pricing wasn't cheap but was competitive I'd say. Give DFW a shot. Their customer service and mechanical work was outstanding. They also have a shop in addition to their mobile repair service. I will certainly consider them for all my future work!
