GCA&TR did a great job diagnosing the problem on the radiator of my Jeep. Repair was done quickly and at a fair price.
I've been using GCATR for about 20 years now. They were recommended to me by a friend and I've never switched. I guess it's a matter of trust. Good work. Good price. And I trust that they'll do the right thing.
Truck towed in because it wouldn't start. Gulf Coast diagnosed it was a key issue. The truck thought it was being stolen and wouldn't start. Programmed 2 new keys and got the truck back on the road same day. Have used gulf coast over the years and have found them to be very professional, proficient and extremely honest. Highly recommend them.
I have a commercial plumbing company and have been in business 40 years. I am happy to give this 5 Star review to Gulf Coast Auto & Truck. I have used Frank and his staff for at least 35 years on all my cars and trucks, and refer folks to them all of the time.
Always gets it done in a timely manner and very professional. Loves to put stretch marks in my credit card.
Good, efficient, honest service.
Would avoid at any cost, go anywhere else. $218 for looking under the hood and an oil change.
I would not take my car anywhere else!! These guys are amazing!! They always take the time to explain my repairs in detail and their repair time is very quick. If you’re looking for amazing customer service and extremely knowledgeable mechanics / technicians, this is the place to go. I highly recommend Gulf Coast Auto.
My initial contact with this company seemed promising However, the repairs were clearly extremely expensive. When being told they would re-run the numbers, I didn’t know that meant start on the repairs. I called a day or so later, to be told 1 headlight had been repaired and I owed 400$ for that just by itself. I…
The Crew at Gulf Coast , are top knowledgeable Diesel Mechanics. They got me back on the road in a timely manner, with peace of mind that my problem was fixed. WILL NOT hesitate to use them again!!! Thanks again to Frank and the Crew at Gulf Coast Auto. Frank & the Men there are top notch, They know how to…

Always quick and reasonable prices. Appreciate these guys at Gulf Coast Auto!
A very knowledgable and professional team of people with a very realistic & hospitable welcome.
Excellent service and wonderful people.
I’ve heard good reviews about this shop from several people and when I was having an issue with my vehicle this week I decided to bring it to them. Frank was so friendly and made me feel comfortable leaving my vehicle with him. My car was ready the same day and has been driving smoothly ever since. I needed a…
I took my car on after another mechanic had messed it up. They thoroughly went over it and came up with a solution. They were very kind and helpful.
Excellent staff. Knowledgeable mechanics and most importantly give you options if available. Gave me straight forward answers. Repairs were completed in a timely manner. Will definitely be back if needed.
When I take my cars to get serviced at Gulf Coast I know it will get done right with quality workmanship and products. I am a repeat customer and will continue to get my cars serviced there 1998 Mustang GT PEACE!
Finished quickly without any hassle. The were able to quickly identify and fix the problem. I have taken multiple vehicles to them over the last ten years, and they have always done a good job. Usually, I am able to drop I off my vehicle by 7:30 am on any given morning, or the night before, and pick it up repaired by the end of the day.
Amazing service and good value. We recently left a garage after 6 years. We have a fleet of 12 vehicles and will be moving all of our business to them. Two cars this week and another one soon Terry D. TADA HOMES LLC
After finding previous shops rigged up work , it was so awesome to find a shop I can trust to provide fair pricing and great work. They also are very timely getting work done.
I was looking for a shop to replace the motor in my vehicle after having another mechanic “work” on my vehicle and I decided to stop by Gulf Coast since they were local to me and had some really solid reviews. This ended up being one of the greatest decisions I’ve ever made since not only did the shop let me know I…
Great service ! Frank was great about keeping us informed about every detail of what they were doing and what the costs would be .
All I can say.....they were awesome. They went above and beyond to see what was wrong with my car. Everyone is great and very honest. Love that
The staff was courteous, professional and expedient. The technician was great at communicating what issues I had with my vehicle and I felt the charges were reasonable. Will definitely use them again!
Have used GCAT numerous times. Always found them trustworthy. Definitely recommend them...
This shop has definitely helped me out so much honestly they definitely did their job and made it right when no one else did. I definitely still recommend this shop ☺️
The service was GREAT. They took the time to check my whole vehicle out for problems that no one else could find. They are very professional in what they do and very friendly and I will always use them from now on if I have any more problems with my car.
Frank would send me text messages updates. Very important to keep the customer informed during extended repairs.
Blake assessed my engine status due to a periodic loss of power. He gave me a clear diagnosis and provided realistic options … even when he knew it would be a difficult message for me to receive. The important thing is that his message was accurate and honest. Thank you, Blake.
Engine light came on and took my vehicle here about a month ago. They had my car 2 days and they went through my warranty with ease. Very professional and good customer service, will use them again. I referred my dad to them, his car was fixed quickly as well. Good and honest repair shop.
Fast and friendly, definitely will be using them in the future.
Had a couple of codes and didn't think I had the expertise so went to those who do. Truck back to running fine, within less than a day.
Great service. Communication was awesome and my problem was fixed in a timely manner. Highly suggest Gulf Coast for you auto service needs in League City
Very quick at tending to my car. Thank you for your service
I recommend Gulf Coast Auto. I've used them a many times to do lots of work on our cars and truck. I think they do honest, good quality work at a reasonable price. I will use them again for sure. I trust them for honesty and ability.
I've used Gulf Coast Auto and Truck for all my mechanic needs for 13 years and they are just great. Great communication and advice come standard with dependable repairs at a reasonable price. Are there cheaper places? Sure. But I'll tell you this, I ain't ever had something Randy and the other guys worked on have to be fixed twice.
I had a wonderful experience and glad to share. I had a concerning problem with my Duramax and stopped by their shop before having truck towed there. They have a very clean facility and an extremely helpful and attentive staff with a can do attitude. They got me in, turned around and fixed up fast with excellent…
I’ve brought all my vehicles to Gulf Coast auto repair these people are Honest and Trustworthy I run a local transportation company and have dealt with many local repair shops this shop is the best .
Great Business, used them for year’s, they say and do what they promised
Messaged them over the weekend and by Wednesday afternoon they had it diagnosed, fixed, test driven, and ready to go! Very satisfied! Update: Used their services again yesterday and their timelines, responsiveness, and quality of their work is outstanding!
Got my old truck and SUV running in tip top shape. Was very thorough, pin pointed the issues and provided plenty of details. I only trust taking my vehicles to Gulf Coast Auto, thank you all very much! Highly recommended for outstanding service.
Communication is thus far the greatest I’ve every seen. Every person I’ve talked to are very professional.
Blake and his crew did a great job diagnosing issues and had my car back to me quickly.
Great service every time!!!!
GCA&T has always been the best with customer service. They are honest and do a great job!

Accurately came up with action needed to fix problems on my HHR. Did a great job on my other vehicles also.
The place was good and clean. The counter help was nice and polite. I felt at that moment I was at the right place.
I took my F150 was having starter problems would not start. I was quoted a price before repair and was final cost when I picked it up the same day it was repaired. I recommend anyone having problems with their vehicle to go there. Very nice employees.
Mr Randy is amazing! After 2 family members used this location with great feed back I decided to give it a try. Honest, straight up, and detailed won me over. I now have a reliable local mechanic that I will always use!
These are are just outstanding. It is really great to find honest, forthright and knowledgeable folks!
I went to this shop because of their great reviews on Google, Yelp, etc. I was not disappointed.The day before I went here I'd gone to a Firestone Auto Repair shop. They told me I needed to use the dealer because it was an electrical issue. That didn't sound right to me so I thought I'd try these folks. In very…
Gulf coast auto is the ONLY auto repair place I will ever use. I have used them for the last five or six years, and they are truly the most reliable and amazing group of people. They’re always willing to go out of their way to help, never overcharge, and are 1000% transparent throughout the entire process. They also…
Highly recommend! I have used Gulf Coast many times over the last 15 years since moving to League City. Can't recommend them enough! Honest service with honest prices. For example, years ago my A/C was acting up on my truck and I fully expected a very expensive repair. Gulf Coast found and diagnosed the problem.…
Car hard to start and would die when running. Very expensive part. Ran many test before condemning fuel pump. Communicated clearly and timely. Had our best interest in mind.
Randy, Frank and Blake are always upfront and honest when I have a problem with a vehicle. There staff does quality work and I have and will continue to recommend there services to other in need of repairs
