Tom rescued me! Sometimes the universe gives you a heads up before it craps all over your day... Not for me, not today. No, it'll let you start your car and let you go get your groceries. It's after you're done loading your groceries into your vehicle in 40F weather and you're ready to warm up that the universe goes, "Hm.. let's see if we can give her a little heart attack." Yeah, my car didn't start. I was freaking out. My closest friends live north of Austin so I called the only people that I could think of, Austin Automotive. I forgot who answered the phone, but they were so calm and nice that I instantly felt better just talking to them. Tom, the manager, came to my rescue and jumped my car. I hurried over to the shop and they replaced my battery within 10 minutes. I'm so thankful for everyone at Austin Automotive Specialists.

I read a few reviews on yelp about the integrity of this location and I decided to bring in my car to have my grinding brakes inspected. The front office was clean and didn't smell, I was provided a complimentary ride back to my office, the staff was professional and friendly, and they were thorough in helping me understand what the true problem was with my vehicle. The manager, Adam, even found a coupon online that knocked almost $100 off my service; you can tell he takes pride in his business. I will definitely be taking my cars here in the future and highly recommend to others in the area. Side note: I think this shop was renamed in the past few years and used to be called the Brake Specialists Comment from Stephen M. of Austin's Automotive Specialistss Business Manager 1/24/2017Thank you for your review Nicole.

I cannot begin to say enough good things about Andy and the service that I've received from his team and him. They are honest, thorough, fast and fair. You should be comfortable taking your vehicle there and knowing you're not being scammed. He has serviced our 2010 Ford F150 and 2001 Toyota 4Runner.

I have been here a handful of times and I've decided it's "my" car place now. They are friendly, quick, and very fair in terms of pricing. Most importantly, they're honest. Ive brought my car in a couple of times when other repair places have told me something major is wrong requiring immediate expensive attention and they revealed to me that some of those issues were really not as urgent as the other places indicated. They have also always made time for me as a walk-in even though they clearly do a lot of business. Their attitude makes sense to me--be honest, do good work, and provide excellent service and you will have plenty of return customers. It's a Win win.

Elite '2020 Elite '2020 I've ever only been here for the inspection so I won't comment on anything other than that. They have always been fairly quick and cordial. Decent waiting area with TV and WiFi. No complaints, typically easy in and out.

As long as I live in this area these guys will be my go to for auto repair. Being a younger woman, finding a mechanic you can trust is hard, really hard. I feel extremely comfortable with Tom and his team and feel that they will only recommend what is truly needed and not try to take me to the cleaners.

The only place I actually trust to repair my vehicle. Very personable and knowledgeable staff. Reasonable pricing and quick service. I've chatted with the manager and other staff and they all make me feel comfortable talking about auto repair - something I know little about.

It takes so much to gain the trust of a customer when it comes to automotive services. Tom and his team do a great job. When I have taken my three vehicles in I get a fair price and get them back in the promised time. I have recommended this shop to my Sister and Mother-in-law and both have been very satisfied. I recommend this shop to everyone needing work on your car. I take my cars for everything from the simple oil change, inspections to the replacement of my catalytic converter. Come see Tom and tell them Julio sent you. Comment from Stephen M. of Austin's Automotive Specialistss Business Manager 1/24/2017Thank you for the 5 stars Julio!! Read more

Shout out to Mike Riley for taking the utmost care with me and my car! I have an older car (2003 Saturn Vue) that needs a lotta TLC and these guys give it just that and so much more! Every time I have brought my car in, they have been very kind and unlike all the other shops I've been, they don't try to sell me things I don't need! Always straight to the point, and they take the time to explain things so I can fully understand! Keep doing what y'all are doing, You rock! :) Comment from Stephen M. of Austin's Automotive Specialistss Business Manager 1/24/2017Thank you Jennifer, Mike does his best! Read more

I just moved here from California and needed my state inspection completed in order to register my vehicle. They took care of it right away, and were extremely kind and helpful.
