I absolutely LOVE this place! They are so good here. Trustworthiness is important when it comes to car maintenance. I absolutely trust that these guys are charging me fair prices, are giving me great quality service and are doing it quickly. Every time I come here they are professional and friendly. They’ve never pushed me to do work on my car; they simply state what is needed and send you the info to plan accordingly. I can’t recommend the guys at Austin Automotive Specialist (round rock) enough. Too notch service from a top notch team!
I have been using Austin Automotive Specialists since it was called Brake Specialist. I have always had a great experience with this company. I feel that they have always been honest with me and the quality of work is exceptional. They take real good care of both of our cars. You will not be disappointed. We have been using them for 20 yrs. will keep taking our cars to them. Try them you will like them.
Always a great experience. The manager Andrew always makes sure my vehicles get exactly what they need…and ONLY what they need. Very comforting as a single woman to know you’ll always be treated fairly. Would highly recommend to everyone! Best customer service!!!
Andy and his team are amazing. This is the second time they have gotten me out of a bind in record time. This is my official “to go” place for any sort of car trouble!
By far the best place I’ve been to in all of my 28 years of driving. The staff is also amazing! I have recommended them to a few friends and they were very pleased as well!
Austin Automotive Specialists did an amazing work flexibly working me into their busy schedule, and they did a thorough job on my brakes, going over the specifics of each fix they needed to make. The price was right, and the team did a great job explaining how the work was preventative towards further repairs in the future. Thanks so much for the hard work and the quality service!
Always have had great customer service, along with excellent repair services. Ive been coming here for a few years and will continue to.
I got my state inspection here. These guys were very knowledgeable and professional. Made super easy and took no time at all. Notified me my power steering fluid was low and toped it off for me. I plan to go back and my ac fixed. They explained the process on how to diagnosed the problem in detail. Great group of guys, easy to talk to and very respectful.
I have been a customer for 25 years. Andy, Mike, and Juan are the best. Want it done right the first time. These are your guys. Thank you for a job well done always. 👍😀
I called two days before the weekend, explained to them had tire sensor that needed replaced. Was told they are slammed but if I drop truck offThey would squeeze me in. And they kept their word! Tire sensor was replaced, warning light out. All is good now!
I highly recommend this shop especially Mike and Juan the mechanic that worked on my truck. Got my truck in for suspension work and alignment and had it finished within one day. They were great with communication and always contacted me with updates. Definitely bringing back my truck there!
Mr. Andy is awesome! He was very patient with me cause I was overwhelmed with a light. That I thought was serious. He put me at ease ! Thank you a bunch! It was worth the drive from where I live.
I was very interested in acquiring further services from your establishment after I had my fuel pump replaced in my 2002 Ford Ranger back in January 2021. That was until I realized your establishment offered a first time customer discount of 15% off services, not exceeding $150. Before I agreed to services I had asked about any discounts or offers to Mr. Andy Seibel and he reassured me that your establishment had no current savings offers. I was displeased to discover his dishonesty to make a few bucks rather than make a loyal customer who will continue to bring in service and share my good experience with others.I am open to a resolution.*The add is posted in the in the Round Rock Community Impact. Had been for the last year.
Friday afternoon my AC stopped blowing in my car. I immediately called a national chain, which Id been using for oil changes, and they said they couldnt get to it till next Thursday.With temperatures forecast in the upper 90s the next week, I said thanks but Ill call around.Years ago Id had Austin Automotive in Buda do some repairs for me and was really happy with their service and prices. So I called the one in Round Rock, and Andy told me if I could get it in that day, they could have it done by the end of the following day. I did, and not only did they replace my blower by the end of Saturday, the price was about half what I expected. I really appreciate the work Andy and the guys at the Round Rock location did, and Ill definitely be switching to them for my oil changes and any future repairs.
2021-07-03There are many car shops that do excellent work and take good care of customers. This is one.But this one manages the trick of doing those things WITHOUT the high pressure. Can’t do brakes front and back? Well the back is what’s critical. Let’s do the front next month.Wait, what?!? Helping customers get what’s best for them and their circumstances? That’s more uncommon.The prices seem in line with other places. Maybe a bit less. There’s coupons online to help a bit too.Bottom line, they seem to help ME more than helping their business. So I keep coming back.
These guys are the best. I went in to have a check engine light checked out and after doing the basic version for free and that revealing it was something to do with my cars thermostat, I decided to pay to do the full diagnostics test which revealed an issue with the computer reading system. They fixed it same day and I was able to then get my state inspection done the following Monday with them as well which is the whole reason I was prompted to finally get the check engine light taken care of in the first place.These gentlemen are friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and sincere. I completely trust that their prices and assessments are honest and fair. Andy at the Round Rock branch especially helped especially to make a strong impression of their professionalism and integrity.Rock on AAS
I had to get my car checked out for my car registration. Austin’s Automotive Specialists were friendly, informative and professional! I will definitely be going back for other car needs in the future.
I tried a different location. I’m not sure exactly what happened with my appointment but when I arrived I was told they didn’t have an appointment for me, even though I received a confirmation email and verified the location. The manager was gracious enough to still get the service done which I appreciate, but I was made to feel very uncomfortable when he chastised an unprofessional employee in front of me. It was a very odd and uncomfortable situation and I honestly probably won’t return to that location.
Austin Automotive Specialists we’re great. They were able to get me in on short notice and take care of all my needs. Would definitely use them again.
The staff was extremely nice and professional! I would recommend this place to everyone.
AAS always does a top notch job. Theres no one else I would trust to be straight forward, honest and transparent with the work they do.
Very professional and knowledgeable staff. Mike and Andy are trustworthy individuals.
Inspection done. Entire team was very friendly and the service was completed quickly! Highly recommend! They’re always nice and a million times better than any big corporate places around town.
I had a awesome experience here they got me in took really good care of me, got down to the bottom of what was wrong with my car didnt have to wait long at all they provided the best customer service. I recommend this place if you are in need of a mechanical shop I will forever be taking my car here as long as I live in the area. God Bless You!!, 🙏♥️😇🤗♥️♥️♥️♥️
These guys had great attitude and got me in and out in no time 👍
The service was awesome even when I had to take it back for a recheck because there was still a problem. Everything was taken care of efficiently and in a timely manner. I really liked working with Andy at the Round Rock location. It is very clear that he is a person of integrity and I appreciate that.
First time to use this business. Staff was professional and friendly. Lobby was clean. Quote was fair and work was completed in a timely manner. I followed several positive reviews from our neighborhood, and glad I did!
Their customer service is extremely unprofessional, after dropping my car off at 7:30am on a Saturday morning, i hadnt heard anything all day long. Not one update on my vehicle, so i called around 1pm ( they close at 5) Mike answered the phone and told me he would call me back in 10 minutes. So i, of course told them no problem and proceeded to wait for him to call me back. Well 2 more hours went by and i still had not heard anything so i called back to see about my vehicle. I was then told immediately that i needed a new transmission. I was in shock seeing how there was no code or my check engine light was not on. He began to accuse me of laughing at him i wasnt laughing at him at all. I was just in shock. So i found a ride back to their shop to retrieve my car and Mike again asked me why i laughed at him and told me that i was stressing him out !?!? Excuse me ? You just told me i needed a new transmission and accused me of laughing at you sir? I think i was the one who was stressed out. Also when he gave me my car back not only was the check engine light now on, my car had way less power. Needless to say this situation could have gone a lot better if his customer service skills were up to par. I actually did end up needing a new transmission and took it to another place that was way nicer and made me feel a lot better. So because of Mike yall lost that business. Im sure his 40 plus years of mechanical experience is good for vehicles but that lack of customer service experience needs to be addressed.
Mike and his technicians were able to get me in for an oil change and out in time to go work.For questions I had for other services he made sure to explain clearly and understandable .I’ve been with Austin Automotive for 5 years plus and very happy and satisfied with their services.
TOP NOTCH CUSTOMER SERVICE!I unfortunately have a bit of a lemon on my hands thats been causing me headaches for a while. Mike and the crew at this location provide the best customer service Ive experienced in dealing with automotive repair companies. Great crew!
I went in spoke with Andy who has a good old Texas gentleman vibe. Who had my car looked at evaluated and completed in just a couple of hours. I will definitely go back to this location because of the very friendly vibe and courteous service I received. Thanks Austin Automotive Specialist.
The guys were very friendly and accommodating! They had me in and out within an hour or so, on virtually no notice. The truck is much happier now.
These folks do a great job and don’t try to have you get service you don’t need.
Nice waiting area. great service also. I especially liked Andy
Quick and professional inspection. We’ll be coming here every year. Thanks!
Everyone here is so nice, theyre really communicative and prompt with whatever service you need. Thanks AAS!
Friendly and reliable service. My car may be old, but they still treat it as if it has many years left in it and that keeps it and me on the road. I have been using the company for 5+ years and will continue to do so, as I trust them to do it right.
I always receive great service at a fair and reasonable cost. They are always friendly and helpful.
My 2012 Nissan Sentra was taken to Austins Automotive Specialists #107 located at 1800 South IH35, Round Rock, Texas 78664 on May 11, 2021 for replacement of two front struts and shocks and front wheel alignment. They changes the struts and shocks and their estimated fee was way over Nissan dealer estimation.The car is driven by my 18 year old son back and fort to work onlyAbout a week ago front end of the car making some noises and the two front tires are wearing out faster than rear tires and not evenly. Also I noticed the drive side wheel was kind of loose due to un-ties lower control arm bolt. I had to send the car back to this shop for their work investigation they are denying that this was their fault and dont want deal with it. I think My sons life was in dangerous because of their work.They are asking me for the two truck fee and tell me $25 for each day that the car is there.I am filing a case with my attorney and report this business to BBB and will make them to pay for this. DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY BUISNESS.
I was referred to this company by another company and when I say the best service I have received ever😃 I just relocated from Chicago here to ATX and the quality of service that I received was absolutely amazing. I want to thank to Mr. Andy for his pleasurable experience. Mr. Andy was very welcoming and also took time out of his busy schedule to explain the history of their services and the core values of customers satisfaction and making sure that any needs you may need will be met without the ridiculous price tags. Austin Automotive Specialists have been in business since 1979 and it shows that they have Specialists working on your vehicles and that you can trust their business to get the job done correctly. Thank you Mr. Andy for such great service and letting me know the history behind this company’s history, it showed the entire time I step in you all places of business. I would highly recommend that you take your car services here if your serious about your vehicle needs and getting the problem repaired, there’s nothing to small or big that they can not fix and if they can not do the job they can definitely refer you to someone that can🙂
Andy and his staff are always friendly, professional and courteous. I feel comfortable bringing my vehicle to Austin’s Automotive!
They did an inspection on the car so I could get Texas Plates. Very nice people and did the job quick
I was assisted quickly for my inspection to my motorcycle, and on my way in no time. Thank you for my expedient service.
2nd to none customer, trustworthy Service.. They truly honest and genuinely care about the customer. Great quick service, Both Andy and Greg are Great!! They will be my goto for any future needs hands down!
I called them Friday because I was in the area and made an appointment. They took my name and number. I asked for an address and wrote it down. They seemed good. I live over an hour away and drove this morning just to be told I wasnt in the system. I hate being lied to. Not to mention the time and gas I wasted. Yall should be ashamed and dont deserve my money anyways. Horrible service and whats worse is the guy turned away someone else before me. I saw it happen. 😤😡😤
Andy was professional, straight forward, and honest. No hassle! The value was a bit higher than I expected, but like that saying goes, “you get what you pay for”. Quality is where it’s at. Overall, great experience, and fast service! I highly recommend!
Thanks to Mike and the gang at Austin’s Automotive Specialists for taking care of my vehicle this weekend. I was overdue for brakes and Mike squeezed me in on a busy Saturday. Best of all, they quoted a fair price. Finding a vehicle expert you can trust can be a challenge. But look not further than Mike and AAS. They will treat you right.
Made appointment for coolant flush. When I arrived 10 minutes early, they were ready. Was told it would be about an hour, and it was. The cost that was quoted was what I paid and the coolant system is working fine. I’ll be back!
This place was so awesome they called and explained everything and made sure I was ok with the price and was very professional. The service was prompt and I will definitely be using them for any further work I need done.
Mike, Andy, Joe and all the team provide the most knowledgeable, professional, fair and courteous auto service I have ever received. You can trust them completely with your vehicles service needs. We’ve been using them for our family’s four vehicles for years now. They’re an 11 on a scale of 10!
Love these guys! They always remember me by name and are very professional. Would recommend to anyone.
Always honest and quick! I’ve been using this shop even after I moved away from the area because they’re the only good auto repair experience I’ve had in Austin.
My husband and I have been going to Mike at Austin Automotive for many years. Would not even consider anywhere else. Their professionalism, honesty and true caring attitudes are way superior to most. Mike will treat you like any family member and speakes the truth. If anything can wait or is not necessary, Mike will tell you so. Austin Automotive will always have our loyalty.
Always great service! Been going for a while now. Definitely recommend it
Lightning fast service. Professional. Reasonable price. I will use again. Very pleased.
Ive used AAS for years now. They are professional and do good work and are accurate and upfront about costs and repairs. I had a electrical short in my SUV and there were able to diagnose it quickly and had my repair faster than expected
Super friendly and fast, thank you
I came here after getting a car from carvana and being new to Texas got lost everywhere trying to find it. The men working here were so patient and kind to me the whole time. Customer service 5/5 would come back here if I have another issue with my car. They are professional and very nice people
These guys are up front and honest. Very rare in most cases, especially in the automotive repair business. This is my second time Ive used them and I am always impressed and satisfied. They have high ethical work standards. God Bless them!
I use Austin Automotive for all my car care services. They have worked on my Mazda, my moms Honda and my Nissan Pick-up. They have done work on the engine and just general oil changes and etc. They have worked hard for me and I know they will for you too. I highly recommend them.
They were professional and honest about the problem
Mike was great and was able to get me in and out on the same day! Everyone was professional and helpful. Also they were very reasonable with the quote for the the repairs I needed. I would definitely recommend!
Andy was a great help in setting up the appointment to getting the quote.The turn around was quick and the price was fair for the work that was being performed.Now my truck has good steering and ice cold a/c again.Thanks for the great service.
These guys take care of my company car and my personal vehicles. They do great work, and I can trust that they will not miss a beat. The only issue I had this last time around was the cost for rear brakes on my Jeep. I asked how much the cost will be for my rear brakes and was told 220-280. I asked if that was the whole price, and that means with labor and tax. But the bill was 411.89. I ask to know the price so that I can budget for the repair/replacement. Otherwise they do great work.
Andy and the team at the Round Rock location were very quick and efficient! Overall the pricing was not bad, considering ALL the work I was having done. They communicated and even sent pictures every step of the way, so there were no surprises. Top notch service here.
The first time I walked into one of their locations around 3PM, the lady who helped me didn’t have time to do my wheel alignment at her location but, called around the other locations to find out who could help me, after I saw her dedication to help me how could I say no to whatever location she send me?They are my new shop
This company appears to find what is TRULY wrong with your truck unlike other companies I have used. They did a great job and Andy who works inside is a BRILLIANT man and an extremely kind and likable person. He and I get along great! I appreciate Andy and also the other man inside very much. Joel Rogers
They were very professional and work quickly and I say thanks
I trust Austin Automotive in Round Rock with service both of my vehicles. Customer service is second to none. Professional and Courteous Management and Staff. Rain or Sunshine outstanding service. The shop is clean and customer friendly. Austin Automotive in Round Rock has integrity, once I thought I needed brakes. The technician checked and determine I didnt need new brakes at all. In todays society thats in heard of Honesty. Well, Austin Automotive in Round Rock has it. And they have my business for always.
Mike Small keeps me coming back. I trust him and he does a great job.
First time customer....came for an old change. They carry Mobile oil exclusively which I did not know prior to coming. They are very quick and got me out within 15 minutes. Very nice and I will be back!
Great service. Explain everything theyre doing and why it needs to be done. Honest, affordable automotive service. Two thumbs 👍👍 way up!
I love Discount Tire. I got new tires Saturday and they recommended Austin Automotive in Round Rock for a wheel alignment. I called right away and they said they can get me in Monday at 7:30.When I got there Monday morning, the manager, Mike Small said I wasnt on the schedule and his alignment guy was not there. He smugly said are you sure you called this place. I showed him the business card Discount Tire gave me and it was the right place. The employee sitting next to him admitted he took my call Saturday.From there the manager stuttered for a minute trying to get out he wouldnt be able to fit me in but would try. I got out of there as fast as I could. I would never allow a business to work on my vehicle with that kind of business practices.Poor customer service.
The A/C in my 2004 Mazda pickup truck was blowing hot air. With the Texas heat approaching, it’s way too hot!! Austin’s Automotive Specialists had already replaced the brakes in the truck with no issues. I stopped in just to have them check it out and with 3 hours they had diagnosed the problem and finished the repair.. top notch service as usual!! Highly recommend to anyone who needs automotive work. Trustworthy and honest!! Thanks!
Excellent service. Repairs completed sooner than expected. They kept me informed of what they found in their diagnostics and obtained my approval before fixing them. I will use them in the future.
Accommodated me upon arrival for vehicle state inspection. More thorough than other places Ive been in the past!
I’ve been using them since before there name change... perhaps 20 years on a variety of vehicles. I’ve never been disappoint.
Everyone is super nice. Very helpful. So far theyve done good work. Im absolutely a repeat customer.
Definitely quick and thorough service. Price for an oil change came up to be more than expected but I trust theyre recommendation.
Got my car in same day, only about an hour wait for everything I wanted done, oil change, tires rotated, state inspection etc. Didnt try to upsell me on a bunch of things I didnt need. They did exactly what I asked for and didnt try to get me to add on extra services like a lot of places will do. Explained the options of oil again without pressuring me to choose the most expensive option. Called me as soon as my car was ready. Very friendly staff that introduced themselves, welcomed me to this location (as I used to live in Buda and always went to that location). Great service, fast, with a friendly attitude too!
These guys are great. They did everything they could so that my extended warranty finally paid to get my AC fixed. Then they really managed the shop so my car was fixed much faster than I expected.
The technicians are polite. The service is always good at reasonable rates. I would recommend them to anyone.
Mike and the guys did a great job getting my oil changed and installing new tires on my vehicle. I also appreciated them giving me a ride home and picking me up when the work was completed.
Excellent and knowledgeable customer service. I brought it originally to fix a cold stud, and they offered other maintenance items (changing a serpentine belt and cabin filter) which always make me skeptical because sometimes these could be a unneeded upsell. But not here. Manager shows you exactly what he is doing and why — and offers HONEST advise. I had to come back because one of the front brakes started making a squeaky sound, which I first thought was from the cold stud or serpentine belt job. However, when I brought it back it turned out it was from an unrelated previous brake job done poorly 6 months ago somewhere else in Iowa. He fixed someone else’s poorly done job and did not charge for part of the work that should’ve been done 6 months when I originally replaced the brakes.
Hello,Just wanted to share my frustrations on you not doing what you are trained to do. I will not recommend and will let eveyone I know how disppointed I am.So brought my Traverse in because my battery kept dying sporadically and had issues with my transmission. Your test said it was my dome light. ( the button pushed in keeps my daylights/headlights on auto).So week later driving to South Texas with my two kids(3 and 5). Guess what my whole car shut down driving down the road at 80mph....My kids and I stranded on side of road, tow truck 2 hrs out, no way to get ventilation into car as on major highway and 99° outside. Also tow truck cant take people bc of COVID.Had to figure out how to get my two kids to rental car place, where to tow my car, and get somewhere safely.Turns out it was my alternator, so had to replace that, and replace my excellent(according to you) battery, pay tow truck, pay rental for week as I had to leave my car at mechanics and couldnt get back for week, and my transmission did end up needing replaced.Had you done your job I wouldnt have had to pay out of pocket for everything as my car under warranty. However, because I am female I must have left my domelight on and do not know when something is wrong with my vehicle.So frustratingy that I trusted you to take care of my car....meaning my family. Luckily no one injured but had this FEMALE not known how to drive it could have injured or killed my family.So happy that you responded....to tell me I dont know what your mechanics told me...or that you did not test my alternator, only my battery.Have a great day!
The company is fast & professional. Very friendly staff & kept me informed the entire time. The price is very affordable. I would always recommend this location in Round Rock.
I have used this location since 2008 and made the mistake of letting someone else change my cars oil because I moved and thought I should try something close to my house. Never again. It cost me money in repairs because of lack of experience. I drive the extra distance because of my trust in the quality of workmanship
Customer service was good; however, I had to go to another service station on my way out of town because that tire that was repaired at Auntins Automotive Specialists was wobbling and needed to be balanced. I was not told this before I left AAS.
Took my old beater car in to check the breaks as there was a lot of grinding... turned out it wasnt the breaks and was in fact the entire power steering set up.. they gave as many discounts as they could but ultimately it wasnt worth spending on my old beater. Bit they were very kind, professional and made sure I understood everything. Thanks guys!
I have been going to this location for years and will continue to be a loyal customer. The guys are very knowledgeable and honest. Place is spotless as well. Take all our cars here for anything that needs to be done.
I went to a different mechanic first and they just brushed me off without solving the problem. I came here next and it was SO much better. They explained in detail how everything was going to work and were very nice. Ill only be going to this mechanic from now on
Austin Automotive is the best, I always get a speedy oil change and they always let me know everything up front and give me options along with a checklist of things that are coming up to be renewed i.e tire rotation, filters etc.
I’ve been using these guys for awhile now and will always go back. With 4 college and high school age kiddos. We have a lot of used vehicles. These guys have ALWAYS treated us well and the prices are fair and usually within budget. Thank you Austin automotive specialist of Round Rock. You are the best!
They performed the yearly inspection on my vehicle. Very efficient, I was in & out in no time. Everyone was very professional.
I have been going there for years now. Very professional and friendly. Honest and give good value.
We got the master cylinder and brake work done on the truck. Didn’t drive it more than 7 miles away from the shop and noticed lo and behold the brakes still messing up. Conveniently something in the brakes is suddenly not functioning after being test driven. $1300 additional to the $450 in brake work spent. We were also talked to like we had something wrong with our heads and southern hospitality or even being a decent human being doesn’t exist at this shop when they address a concern of their customer. Mike would be the one that should NOT be a manager. Rude and unprofessional. Please stay away from this shop.
These guys are great. Very professional and friendly.
Mike and Andy at Austin Automotive know the bones of vehicles that come into their establishment. They offer honest feedback and do thorough work. You leave the shop feeling confident knowing your vehicle has gone through the inspections on the list. The mechanics know their tasks and follow through the job.
Took my new Porsche there because the first place that I usually go to for state inspections for my vehicles made me aware that they dont do state inspections on Porsches. I went in to this location and I was in and out in about 12 minutes ! Super clean facility and professional staff. This will be my first stop next time !
I was very pleased with my visit. They were very professional and I will be returning again. Thank you!
