Ive been taking our cars to McGraws for about 5 years now. Friendly, knowledgeable owners who take the time to explain the repairs, what should be done right away, what can wait. Super clean, organized and well equipped shop. They continually invest in the most modern technology so they can quickly diagnose and fix problems on even the newest of cars.Communication is excellent, theyre very good about calling you to keep you informed on the expected time theyll be finished.

Im glad I found Mcgaws, and will use them again in the future when I need an independent mechanic, for sure. Brian gives very good explanations and wont oversell you on repairs you dont need. In my case, he didnt just fix the problem (a fried ignition coil), he fixed the root of the problem so it wouldnt occur again (busted heated core hoses spewing antifreeze). He couldve easily insisted on more repairs to inflate the bill, but didnt. I really appreciate that. I even suggested extra work and he said he wouldnt bother if it was his unless I really wanted to invest in tuning it up. I think all of the other reviews on Google are accurate. They had my truck fixed in 1 day and sent me home with a list of other issues we might want to address in the future if I hang onto it. If youre on here searching for a good mechanic in the area, you found a great one.

Simply the best. The McGaws have cared for our vehicles for decades. They love cars and trucks and know them inside and out, give excellent, friendly advice, and rarely fail to fix whatever ails our gentle beasts. Highly recommended!

Im incredibly disappointed by McGaws. They were so good to me in the past, but after an oil change today where they added windshield wiper blades and an air filter without telling me is the last time I come here. I can understand these things need replacing from time to time, but you have to inform your customers before doing so. I would have been okay if these did need replacing, but doing so without a word makes me scared to come back here.Going above and beyond shouldnt be related to how much youre expecting to pay. $100+ for an oil change is the last bit of money McGaws will ever see from me.

Lazy shop. Only wants to work on computer controlled cars that can tell them what to fix, because they are to lazy to use diagnose your cars issue.

The absolute best in car service and repair. The customer service is unparalleled. This is a family business with three generations of excellence. My family has been utilizing them for just short of 50 years.

Fair and honest people. They were easy to speak with and answered all our questions. They arent out to just make a quick buck, you can tell they take pride in the job they do and will shoot it to you straight. We will definitely be using them for any future mechanical needs!

Not one to write reviews, but have had my socks blown off by the customer service both times using McGaw’s. They don’t mind taking 10 minutes to fully explain everything going on with your car, what they found, and recommendations if there are any. They treated me better than family and took excellent care of my car only doing what needed to be done and being very upfront with “xyz didn’t need anything, they didn’t show any wear” very rare to get that type of honesty. Fair pricing, and excellent results. They did some suspension work for me and this car hasn’t driven this well in years. Will be a customer for years to come.

Honesty, integrity, and stellar knowledge of cars and their operating systems. Brian, Spencer and the guys will treat you like family and fix your car in a swift and timely manner. I would be lost without them and I refer all my friends because they treat them the same way. They are certified and the shop is super clean as well.

Have been bringing my cars here for about two years now. Always upfront and honest with me, price is always lower than I fear it will be and done faster than I expected. They understand that repeat business from honest work always pays better than a quick overcharge and a unsatisfied customer.

Review №15

Not your regular mechanic shop. Theyre definitely out to take care of the customers vs. make money. Moving from Colorado recently and having to leave my old shop behind I cannot express how relieved/ecstatic I am to find such an amazing place. Im a customer for life after my experiences here. I highly highly highly recommend going to these guys

This place is awesome! Staff is friendly and very helpful. Recommended to a friend. They couldnt help her but walked her through what she needed and gave her recommendations on where to have it done. Took 30 minutes to help out someone who wasnt paying them.We have used them in the past and have never been disappointed with their work.Like I said, they are awesome!

I had a great experience the other day here. My serpentine belt came off. I drove it to them and they got me done in an hour. I may have been fortunate with them not being too busy but when I called and asked how long, they told me the wait and it was done within the time. Fair price too for the work involved.

This place is great! I went there today to get my antifreeze checked. It was checked free of charge. I highly recommend McGaws to anyone that wants to be treated fair at fair price. Hats off to McGaws. Im going to send business their way. They are very professional and seem very fair. I offered to pay for my services but the young man told me that there was no charge. Again, honest and fair.....McGaws!

First time customer. This is a great auto repair shop! They were honest, direct, respectful, and helpful. They found a big problem with my vehicle and spent the time to discuss options. I greatly appreciate the effort to help me out. I highly recommend them for any auto repairs and will definitely be going back for any future needs.

I started taking my car there for maintenance and repairs about one year ago. Each time I have had service needs this has been done in a professional, timely, and friendly manner. I especially appreciate that the owners took extra time and effort to work with an extended warranty policy I have, which is extra work for them, but saved me money. Highly recommend McGaws Automotive

Review №34

This is how great this auto repair shop is. They were flexible and accommodating my schedule as best they could. They started looking at my car at exactly the time they said they would. They spent 20 minutes with it, but didnt charge me because the problem I thought I had was not the problem that existed. This is my new go-to garage. I cant say enough good about them, and the customer I was chatting with has been taking cars to them for 20 years. It is not the least expensive shop, but I am convinced it is the best value.

I have been bringing my car here since I moved to Arlington a year-and-a-half ago. Weve had nothing but honest, competent service from this family-owned business, and the communication, professionalism, and friendliness have been just what you would hope for in an auto repair shop. Highly recommended!

Ive been taking my car to this shop for years! The guys working here are the best. They treat you with respect and speak to you like you actually have a brain. They are honest about what youre looking at and what you will be looking at in the future in regards to repairs, and are super helpful if youre getting ready to get something new. Can not say enough good stuff about this shop.

These guys are car-whisperers! Ive had many repairs done and they seem to pinpoint issues perfectly while exhibiting an impressive expertise. Add to that a professional and thoughtful interaction with customers, and you cant beat the quality of service.

I usually work on my own cars but needed a professionals help with replacing my a/c compressor. Spencer have me a very fair price for replacement and recharging the a/c system. Besides a minor setback that was handled very professionally, overall a very pleasant experience that you dont get working with mechanics. Theyve got a new customer from now on.

Review №43

Its always hard for me to feel like I can trust a mechanic, seeing as I know so little about cars and therefore Im somewhat at the mechanics mercy. But all the guys at McGaws are great and they are very honest in their dealings. They have never tried to upsell me on anything and will very plainly and honestly tell me if something needs work or if everything is in good condition. Wont take our cars anywhere else in Arlington!

Review №54

We have been a McGaws customer for over 7 years. Their great reviews lead us to them after we had a bad experience elsewhere. McGaws guidance is honest, prices are fair with no surprises, the work is done well and timely. We have had everything from basic maintenance, like oil changes, to extensive work. They are only open weekdays but even with that, we try to arrange it so we bring the cars there for everything to insure done correctly. Everyone I have worked with at McGaws has been friendly and professional but you will also usually find the same familiar guys at the desk or answering the phone. They even follow up afterwards with a call for repairs on those frustrating sporadic issues or major repair. If anyone asks for a recommendation for car repair near Arlington, Dalworthington Gardens or Pantego, McGaws Automotive is who we recommend.
