Best

I have had nothing but excellent service and honesty from this company. I now take all of my vehicles there for service, repairs, etc. They are very friendly and do a great job ...

Worst

Incompetence without Integrity. Pros: I actually got the truck back eventually with minor damage Cons: Everything else.

I love these people. 8/4/2009

I've been bringing my car here for two years, since I moved to Austin. They have always been friendly and honest, and quick. My dad was my previous mechanic and hasn't had a problem with anything they've told me yet. Pros: Friendly and helpful more

Friendly honest service 8/3/2009

I just started working on S. Congress recently and noticed McSpadden's sign on my way to work which read "if you don't have an honest auto repair shop, give us a try". Then I had a problem with my car, and thought of them first. They were very helpful, prompt and reasonable. Pros: Very honest and reasonable Cons: Don't know of any more

Finally a trustworthy mechanic 7/30/2009

I think McSpadden's Automotive is one of the few shops in town that understands long term thinking. If you are honest and treat the customer respectfully then they will return. I have been using McSpadden's for many years now and have always felt they understood this concept and treated me appropriately. It is a simple idea but one very few practice. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a mechanic they can trust. Pros: honesty, quick, very courteous and informative Cons: not open on weekends more

McSpadden's - The best for auto repairs!!! 7/30/2009

We were headed out of town for a long road trip - our car started having problems the day before we were scheduled to leave. I called the mechanics we've used in the past and they were completely booked up. I was paniced. Then I remembered Susie on 102.3 FM, The River, said that's where she took her vehicles and was very happy with them. So I gave them a call - and they said no problem bring it on in. Whew! We left the next day for our road trip as scheduled without a hitch. They saved the day! We had a great family vacation. They've definiately got my vote for life. Pros: Awesome Service Cons: None more

Prompt, Reliable, Honest Austo Service 7/23/2009

We have had our cars' serviced with McSpaddens since 2001. One of the the primary reasons that I have been going back to McSpaddens is that they have always had my car ready when they have promised. Additionally they are courteous, professional and honest when evaluating the repairs that are necessary as well as in rectifying any problems that may recur. Raymond, the owner and Brandon (office manager) are both extremely friendly and have always done their best to ensure we are always satisfied with the work done on our vehicles.I would recommend McSpadens to anyone looking for honest, prompt and reliable service. Pros: Promptness, Honesty, Courteous more

AUTO SERVICE WORTH BRAGGING ABOUT 7/22/2009

I heard about this shop from a co-worker and decided to give them a try when the brakes went out on my truck. The truck is a 2001 in need of many repairs. They prioritized what needed to be repaired and quoted a very reasonable price. The repairs were made in a timely manner and is now running GREAT. Within a week my wife?s vehicle needed service and I didn?t hesitate to return to McSpadden?s. The mechanics took the time to explain to me about all the repairs that were needed and helped to prioritize what should be done now and what could wait. I wouldn?t hesitate to recommend this company to anyone. Pros: HONESTY, QUALITY, AND FRIENDLY more

Trustworthy, friendly, professional mechanics 6/14/2009

I had access to my own personal mechanic, my father, for more than a decade until I moved away from home. I've never found a replacement that I really trusted until I started going to McSpadden's a couple of years ago. I'm happy to continue using this shop for inspections and repairs, and I refer all my south Austin friends to them. Pros: great service, friendly, efficient, get the job(s) done Cons: none currently more

This place is a Keeper 6/10/2009

Everyone was friendly and attentive when I went today to have my emissions inspection done and added an oil change onto the service. Price was fair, I was in and out of there in less time it would take to go grocery shopping (for 2!). Gave me good info on getting through the state registration process (from out of state). McSpadden's will definitely be my regular mechanic now that I've moved to Austin. Pros: FAST service Cons: None more

McSpadden's Rocks 6/2/2009

McSpadden's has kept my 11 year old truck running great. I started with them shortly after they opened up the 4241 location. One of the owners, Raymond, (I haven't met Mrs. McSpadden) has always been friendly and sincere in his conversations with me. The current service writer, Brandon is as sincere and friendly as Raymond, outperforming by far all previous writers. They stand by their warranties, too. I highly recommend this repair facility and intend to continue doing business with them. Pros: Repairs done right or they make it right. Cons: Occasionally understaffed but still accommodating more

Trustworthy car service 5/19/2009

It is great to have found an auto service shop that offers trustworthy service--especially for those who don't know cars. I have never had a problem with the service and they have always been responsive to my questions and concerns about my car's performance. They keep good records which they copy for me as I need them and which preserves a good history of my car's status. Pros: Professional, ethical service Cons: none in my experience more

excellent customer service and quality work 5/18/2009

I'm a relatively new customer to McSpadden's and my experience has been excellent thus far. after 10+ years with a previous mechanic, I was looking for a new mechanic closer to home that could deliver the same family owned attention and quality work that I had been recieving for so long. after much research, McSpadden's came highly recommended and I have yet to disapointed. The customer service is absolutely superb (even better than my previous mechanic) and the work is quick and high quality. Pros: fast and affordable Cons: none so far more

Single Women: Go Here! 5/15/2009

I worked with Raymond & his wife for many years so I know the quality work that they do. I've been taking my vehicles there for as long as he's had his shop: both a late model & an 18-year old truck. Both are running fabulously; he replaced the A/C system in the older vehicle & it's humming along great. Even if I didn't know him & Brandon personally, as a single woman I feel safe knowing that they've taken care of me & I'll get where I'm going safely. Thank you! Pros: Open till 6p, Family-owned business, Clean waiting rm Cons: Getting out of the parking lot during rush hour! more

Mechanics you can trust and costs that you can afford 5/14/2009

I became a customer in 2003. During this period I have owned a Nissan, Toyota and Audi which have all been service by McSpadden's. Their work has been excellent. They are upfront in telling you what needs to be done and the cost before any work is done. In some cases they even gave me options on what I might want done immediately and what might be put off until later, that would not constitute a hazardous driving situation. From state inspection to alignment, brakes and transmission, they have kept all my cars in perfect running order. Everyone I have dealt with have always been really nice and understanding. Not like the cold receptions you get from franchises and other garages where you feel your part of an assembly line. Pros: Affordable work you can trust in Cons: They don't work weekends more
