Hello AAS. Service was flawless. I will return to at least have the left headlight replaced as well as the driver's door handle and the right-front door rear-view mirror. Thanks for the friendliness.
These guys are pretty awesome. They took on inspections and repairs that Firestone did not want to or were negligent on. I was finally able to get my car maintained and back to great running condition. Thanks guys for all y’all did.
Professional, honest, and great customer service. I highly recommend taking your car here.
I trust this shop 100%! I've been coming here for years with multiple vehicles and the experience is always above and beyond. There is a reason these guys are always so busy. Andy really makes you feel comfortable and confident that he's going to take good care of your vehicle. I would recommend them to everyone!
Excellent repair service for my older pickup! It's running 🏃♂️ like a champ now! Great job Austin's Automotive Specialists!!!
Excellent diagnostics and resolution of sluggish engine issue. Also received a complete report and additional follow up. Very reasonable cost for superior service.
The team at the William Cannon Austin Automotive did a great job of identifying the location of an oil leak on our car. They were quick and thorough with the replacement, even replacing another part at cost that was severely corroded and in danger of failing. Honest mechanics that do what’s right, without being asked.
Always honest. Always good pricing. Thank you, gentlemen
Andy is honest and thurogh and kind. Mechanics seem to be aware and proffessiomal. Thank you Andy Robert K.
Real honest professionals here. They talked me out if work, twice because of certain circumstances with my car. Great folks!
A bit of a wait but very informative as the process of repair got started and was finished.
I have used Austin Automotive Specialists twice now and it has been a fantastic experience each time. They always tell you exactly what is wrong, and it is clear they charge you for exactly what they are doing, nothing more. I have felt very comfortable each time I have brought my vehicle there, and they have been…
One of the best shops in town in my opinion. Knowledgeable, Honest, quick and willing to go beyond to help you resolve issues. I recommend this place to all my friends
i have had 3 vehicles over the years serviced by them and have never had any regrets
I have never been disappointed by AAS on William Cannon. I keep coming to them even though other businesses/locations are closer to me because of their amazing service. They are super busy because they’re so good but they always are able to accommodate me. I would recommend planning ahead for your regular…
Andy is highly knowledgeable- they keep records well so easy to check when the wipers were replaced last- friendly, honest and prompt. The only place I take my car for it’s maintance and repairs
I’ve been having issues with a truck I just recently bought from a used car dealership who “pride themselves on knowing trucks and selling only the best quality trucks” but apparently the truck I bought was not in that category. I knew something was off and wanted an expert opinion with honest intentions. The guys…
You can tell the team here really cares about their work and customers. I will only take my car here from now on. 10/10 service!
We have an older vehicle that is kept for sentimental reasons which my oldest drives and Andy always takes the best care of us and keeps him safe. We originally came here because it was very close by, but we really stumbled upon a gem of a place. They care and always go above and beyond and it feels like the old…
My engine light went on due to it misfiring. Decided to take it to the official Kia dealership and let them know it was probably spark plugs/engine coil. The guy told me it would be 200 dollars to diagnose, and another 2 weeks to get it repaired. Would've easily cost me 1000 dollars for a simple repair. Made a…
