LOL can I do 0 stars???? Just so y'all know, Tom Light, you could've done ANYTHING else and this review would have been about how we had a major issue and y'all did everything you could to fix it/make it right. But here we are. Feb 2020 we purchased a brand new Chevrolet Traverse. Almost exactly a month ago, I dropped my car off at our local Chevrolet dealership for my first free oil change. The baby and I hung out with my best friend for a few hours until car was ready. She drops me back off at dealership, I load up baby into his car seat, circle about a mile to the Stripes off of Earl Rudder Fwy. Long story short saw smoke coming from engine , yanked his infant car seat from car, threw gas nozzle back into holder and called FD as I ran from car. I turn around and look to see flames near engine. What the actual heck???? It's BRAND NEW YALL. *Fire report says it looks like someone didn't put oil cap back on after oil change. Even if that's not it, coincidence that my suv CAUGHT FIRE after oil change???? Who knows. *Tom Light called right when we got home and said cap WAS on when we got to dealership. They said had to be faulty GM part (of course). Again, who knows. We have pictures after fire and cap was DEFINITELY not. *Luckily I needed gas. I'm lazy as heck about getting gas, and was below E after oil change. I was supposed to get on highway to see My husband for lunch- would've been a way worse situation. There aren't any fire extinguishers on side of highway *we did discuss fighting for a settlement but as no one was physically hurt...we just wanted the car totaled and a good deal on a new car. Well, Tom Light says ''service has nothing to do with sales'' apparently. So, we didn't purchase from Tom Light again. For such a "friendly" dealership they didn't want to help us at all any more than the next buyer. Really crappy on their end. Thought yalls slogan was 'here for you everyday????' Lucky we didn't sue!!!! Shame on all of you guys. Way to handle a customer. We're not the only customers you've lost due to this either. ********** Y'all go see Tobyn at All Star Autoplex in Palestine!! 100% amazing folks. They gave us an AMAZING deal on a brand new car when they didn't have to. They basically did what Tom Light should've done for us.

I walked in 30 minutes before closing and dealt exclusively with JT. I was upfront about the fact that I was just shopping and he made my experience fantastic! He showed me my options and helped me test drive options in my price range that fit my needs. I have had a negative experience at this dealership before so that's why I can't leave 5 stars, but I can personally recommend purchasing a vehicle from JT "Your Auto Needs Guy!!"

See all

Dan, the owner, provided diagnosis costs, parts and labor costs once the problem was known, and called me each step of the process for the go ahead. I dropped off my truck right at 7:30 A.M. and picked it up that same day around 3:30 P.M. Dan let me know that the power steering issue was fixed and also informed me that due to the leak that the power steering pump received extra wear due to the lack of fluid within the tank. Rather than replace the pump and add that cost into the repairs, Dan informed me that at some point the pump would need to be replaced. Dan will find the problem with your vehicle and fix it as quickly as he can for a good price. He does not try and cheat you in any way to get more money. For these reasons, I will always bring my truck into Superior Auto Service. Thanks and Gig 'Em! Mitchell Weigand Class of 2017 A WHOOP!

I immediately called my buddy who is a mechanic and explained, he told me in his shop he would charge 600-900 for this job depending on what he found after getting into it. So I called around bryan and had several shops quote me the same price. Had it towed to one of them. Ended up paying 900 INCLUDING the tow to another shop. Parents beware of this place.

I have been going to Pete's Auto Care since I moved to College Station for my freshman year. My car…read moreis the epitome of a typical college car. I drive a 2006 Ford Mustang and I swear I have problems almost every month. I trust Pete and his employees because they never overcharge or lie for more profit even though I'm extremely uneducated about anything car related lol. For instance, last month I took my car in to get my brakes and rotors replaced. They told me that I could wait a solid few months before changing them, but they definitely were going to need replacing. Other auto shops would replace them without mentioning that I could wait before spending a couple hundred. I respect their honesty! Last night, I was driving on the highway and I had to exit quickly because one of my dashboard lights lit up. My car was overheating and white smoke was coming out of the hood. I called Pete and without hesitation he towed it this morning and I picked it up this afternoon. If it wasn't for his wonderful and quick service, I really think I may have been shopping for a new car this weekend. The towing was reasonably priced at all $55 to tow my car from College Station to Bryan. I had to get my car towed earlier this year to his shop because I had two tires blow out and he was able to tow it for $55 dollars as well so I'm assuming that is his standard towing price. Needless to say, I recommend Pete's Auto Care and I would not trust my car with anyone else! Pete is such a great person as well and I always find myself having a conversation with him while I'm in the shop. Last semester my car battery died and Pete came to my complex and he jumped the car himself because my jumping cables were faulty. If that is not exceptional customer service than I honestly do not know what is. Keep up the great work, Pete!

High Labor Rates If…read moreyou take your vehicle to B&B Automotive in Bryan TX, be prepared to pay a hefty price for the work they do. I had them repair my 1897 Chevrolet pickup truck, and it was breathtakingly expensive. They charge a diagnostic fee, but they don't include that fee with the work when you approve to have the task done. The diagnostic fee is charged on top of the repair charges. For example, I asked them to recharge the AC system. I was okay with the $216 diagnostic charge. But then they charged me another $600 to do the repair. They put in new refrigerant, added dye, and tested for leaks in the system. The labor rate was $240 per hour. I still can't believe that I had to pay over $800 for a simple AC recharge job. This was not all, but the other task I had them do was similarly expensive. When I complained about the labor rate, they told me that their rates are competitive with other repair shops in Bryan TX. According to Google AI, the prevailing labor rates for automotive repair in Bryan typically ranges between $105 and $160 per hour at independent auto shops, and the Texas average is $141 - $154 per hour. I'm sure that the age of my vehicle justifies a higher rate, but let's be reasonable. I'm not saying that they did not disclose the costs of the repairs. I agreed to them. But I did not have much choice. My vehicle was not running well enough to drive, and I would have had to find a new place and get it towed there for additional cost to me. I would have lost my diagnostic costs. They had me over a barrel, and I think they took advantage of my situation. To be fair, they were friendly, competent, and willing to work on my older vehicle. I have every reason to believe that they did a good job on the repairs. But the labor rate of $240 per hour adds up in a hurry. If you use their services, be prepared to pay a huge bill.
