Trustworthy, fast repairs, fair prices - what else could you ask for.
My new favorite go-to for my car!! They took great care of my car and they even changed out my key battery for free which was so nice. 10/10 service!
Phong was communicative, fast, and I got my car in and out of there within 2 hours. I will be back.
Love this place. Very efficient and nice.
THANK YOU PHONG FOR THE AMAZING SERVICE. I came to his shop right at opening, 7:30 AM, as a walk-in needing a diagnostic test due to my car consistently dying on me and making a rattling noise while driving. I had been dealing with this for a year because I did not have the funds or reliable mechanics in the area to…
Excellent, honest, and efficient. Can’t recommend highly enough.
Extremely friendly, helpful, and quick turn around. Would recommend
Great friendly service. They demonstrated appreciation and enthusiasm for my 1994 Nissan SE-V6 pickup! Make an appointment!!
Very affordable oil change and pretty nice people, but totally did not address the issue of my windshield wiper fluid tank leaking. Sure, they filled it, but now all that beautiful blue liquid sits on the concrete of my apartment complex garage. Guess I have to suck it up and find another shop. Oh well. -- UPDATE:…
I chose TP Auto based on positive reviews. Phong & staff were helpful & prompt with repairs.
Super friendly and got my truck fixed quickly. I'll definitely be back for standard services and if any other work is needed. Highly recommend these folks
Awesome service. Called ahead to make an appointment and they were very helpful to tell me what kind of updates my car needed.
Great service, nothing more to say. If you are in the area I highly recommend stopping by. Phong is a great mechanic. Honest and hard working! I will come back anytime I need to.
I absolutely recommend this shop , their customer service is in incredible they had originally told me it would be a four hour job. It was done within two hours of me dropping off my car. They were very communicative from the beginning entering the time that the car was at their shop. They kept me informed they…
Great experience, went in for a service and smog. They were very quick, friendly and thorough and caught a few things I needed to fix. Would recommend :)
Excellent friendly service! Thank you!
I needed an emissions test and Phong and the team did it within 30 min, checked my oil and noticed it was low and needed to be topped off, and checked the PSI on my tires. Super helpful and close to my house in University Heights. Would come back for servicing in the future! Super friendly, honest and informative…
I can’t stop talking about TP Auto—and for good reason. I tell everyone I know to go there, and I genuinely won’t take my car anywhere else. I don’t know much about cars, but they always pinpoint exactly what’s wrong and explain everything clearly. TP Auto is reliable, honest, affordable, and always has a quick…
I honestly love this place, I have taken my car here several times and always been thrilled with the repairs and service. They are thorough, thoughtful, and knowledgeable, but still willing and able to explain car stuff to a layperson. They are also competitively priced for the location and nice to chat to when…
Fast, honest service with no hassle and reasonable prices. Love this place.
