Long review alert π¨ HIGHLIGHT: Female friendly auto repair shop!!! Because yes, it matters.Mom, I hit a dip in the road and the cars making noise...Your dad isnt back in town yet, but he said to take it to Cambridge Auto.Say less. Typically my dad does most of the work/maintenance on the car. So if he says to take it to a specific place, thats what you do. Its not close to where we live, but dad said the work is worth the drive. Needless to say, I was not disappointed. As a woman, taking my car into a mechanic can be extremely daunting. Most places will try to rip you off just because they assume women dont know any better. This place was not like that at all. I honestly cant say enough good things. I had my kids with me so the cleanliness of the restroom and waiting area was extremely impressive and APPRECIATED. My kids honestly had a blast looking at the car encyclopedia and at the cool stuff around the walls. Hopefully their squeals and giggles werent too much of a bother, but the staff was very pleasant and offered snacks and water for them while we waited. The repair itself took roughly 30 minutes. He even showed me the issue, how they fixed it, and things Ill need to get taken care of both ASAP and further down the line. I was so impressed I had to make a post about them in one of my FB groups. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. If I could give them 100 stars, I would. They made an otherwise uncomfortable experience, painless. Pricing is VERY fair and service is phenomenal. Ill literally drop their name anytime someone asks about an auto repair shop. Huge shout out the every staff member over there! Thank you so so much for making sure my kiddos and I were taken care of!
Never been to this establishment it looked very clean and organized so I thought Id give them a try. Big mistake. I went inside and told them if they could check to see what was wrong with my tire as I had a flat. I brought the tire in another vehicle that I have. They told me sure that they would check it but, for me to wait outside. Well I waited and waited so I just left. Nobody never came outside to help me. Id have more respect for the guy at the counter if he told me to get the hell out of here.
After going through three voltage regulators and frying a battery, I took my 1973 Plymouth Duster to Cambridge Auto Center. My alternator was overcharging my battery. I heard about Cambridge over the radio and how they work on vintage cars.I made the right decision. I was greeted at the front office by Lily. Lily was attentive to my concerns and she relayed this to the technician/mechanic Joshua. I met with the owner Terry who was also very attentive to my concerns. Terry explained the work that was done and he had no problems with me wanting to have a new part; voltage gauge, installed last minute.Although I did not meet him, major kudos go to the mechanic, Joshua Osborne. Itβs a major relief to know a service garage has mechanic(s) with the knowledge, skills and ability to work on vintage cars. He did a great job fixing my Duster. I now drive with confidence. Overall, quality of repair, customer service and price earned Cambridge Auto Center 5 stars.
Had a pre-purchase inspection done here. For less than $100 they were extremely thorough and their staff was very courteous. Not sure how they are for repairs but I feel confident theyd be pretty good based on my experience.
These guys are the greatest! I was really in a bind with a flat tire just before payday and they worked with me to get it fixed! Got me in and out quickly. Awesome clean and organized shop. 10/10 recommend to everyone. Will be taking all my future business here!
Came in to get my tires changed. This crazy sound looked at. And a quote for diagnostics I already had. After they finished with my car diagnostics they didnt even attempt a quote...forgot I was even there and everyone behind me had come and left. Had to go see what was going on...which is when they started the quote. Had told me they had to drive the car twice for diagnostics but some how had no idea about the noise and driving even though I came in because of it? They ignored the tires and the sound. Charged me for diagnostics...said the car was safe. Went to another auto shop Ive been to before to actually get my tires changed and figure out the sound. Apparently I had really bad wheel bearings that had to be replaced...which definitely isnt safe. When I called to explain to the manager what happened he wanted to tell me the tech didnt look at the noise and sound because it wasnt in the notes? Ive never been here without them being thorough like this. So the tech doesnt write down what I need and somehow thats supposed to be my fault? He didnt offer a solution...I asked for a refund. Which went over just fine, I was refunded. Im just disappointed that I was not only forgetten about but told I was safe and wasnt. Usually for an oil change theyve told me I needed new tires and checked on other things without me even having to ask. So its not very pleasant to have things Ive actually asked to be seen be completely ignored. Im glad they didnt try fighting the refund.
This place has not completed the work on time as promised twice. One month later still no car. I took my car there because I heard the guy every Saturday afternoon so I just assumed that they would do very good work in a timely manner, boy was I wrong. Too many things to write about. WHENEVER I get my car out of there I WILL NOT RETURN
This place does good work. Lilly and Eddie are super great to deal with. The new guy, Sergio, is also great, love his attitude. Jose. I bring my car here consistently and theyve done me right so far. I got Suspension work, window work, alternator replacement. Always happy afterwards. Thank you Cambridge β¨β¨β¨
I appreciate quality work. I have lots of mileage on my Toyota, and I want it to keep on running. That is why I drive 120 Miles for service. Living in Shiner, TX. we have good auto repair shops, but I need the BEST that is why I drive the distance... Like the BG products and first class service. I listen to them on WOAI Under the Hood I learn a lot with them. Thanks.
Took my car in because someone ran me into a median.They said they would look at it. I stopped them when the quote reached &2,900 and they werenβt finished looking at it. Which by the way was 2 days after I dropped it off and them telling me that they would look at it first thing the next morning. Then charged me over $100 for diagnostic that was never discussed with me prior to or at the time I dropped it off. Insurance is going to pay and had they not tried to poke out my eyes in the beginning I would have let them do the work. But not being honest or Upfront is a big red flag for me and Iβll pass.
Great experience at Cambridge Auto Center. Very professional and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!
VERY nice place, comfortable customer waiting lounge. Kinda pricey, but great work-very nice staff.
Go and see Jose, who is the Assistant Manager on duty. He is very professional and will go to bat for you with your insurance or extended warranty I was looking at an arm and a leg, but after some time with Jose he was able to work out some kinks and got me a great deal and now my mustang is running better than ever, they do it all hands down the best shop in town! They even have a shuttle to get you back to work on your lunch break, that was my situation, I didnβt have to get a rental or an Uber they took me to work and I was able to get my car back that same day! Appreciate it Guys yβall keep up the great work!
Best auto mechanic place there is. Their repair warranty canβt be beat.
Great experience taking my car here. Had to get its ABS module replaced. The people I talked to were helpful and professional.
Excellent, Professional Service. Cambridge Auto Center is highly recommended.
I recently had to get some new brakes and rotors and Cambridge Auto Center came recommended from a colleague of mine. I cannot tell you how grateful I am for the recommendation because Cambridge really sets the standard in customer care, professionalism, and quality of work. They also are so confident in their work that they offer warranties, which is something many places will NOT do! Cambridge, thank you for giving me the peace of mind of knowing there are auto mechanics out there that I can trust!
Diagnosed it correctly on the first try would recommend them again. And have used them multiple times.
Amazing. The integrity of this place is outstanding. Had my alternator light come on for a brief second then it turned off. I took it to this place and ask them to install a new one. They came back and told me it was nothing and that I should be fine. I feel like most places would have just taken my money and replaced it anyways. Definitely will be back.
They are real good honest and best part they tell you what you really need on your car I am very pleased the technian Jordan was awesome and explain what I need thank you very much I will continue bringing my car to them
Great experience. Honest and dependable. Highly recommend.
This place is amazing! Fixed my car within 2 days ! Jesse is great and I can tell he really loves his job! He made me feel welcomed and relieved! Thank you, definitely coming back ! HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone!
I was recommended to this place by a friend they said they did great work on their vehicle so I took my vehicle because it was making a noise or vibration noise when you turn it on. They looked at it they told me it was a couple of regular maintenance stuff. I paid for the stuff. Got the car back and still had the noise . They said take it back and then they said ok its this now so now I paid more money to fix it and then left with the car and guess what, The noise I went in for never got fixed. I paid almost $1000 and maybe I didnt need the other stuff done but who knows. I didnt call them back or anything because now I dont have money to fix other things they said need to be fix it the end. And if I did how would I know that once again I am not just waiting money.
Good quality, and they dont try to sell you on anything.
Zazen Had my headlights adjusted. They were friendly and professional as usual. wWill retunnagain.
I went in after the Texas snow storm because my check engine light was onβthese guys recommended a GDI flush and new spark plugs. Iβm from out of town and I knew something didnβt sound right so I decided not to listen to them. Long story short, I took my car to my home shop and Cambridge Auto apparently unplugged some sensors and deleted stuff off of the computer. I am now down $109 with nothing left to show besides this review. Take your car somewhere else peopleβCambridge Auto is not it.
I just called to get a quote and the lady who answered the phone was very rude and acted like I was bothering her. I was considering taking my car here after reading the many good reviews, but now I see those are probably just bought reviews. Poor customer service especially for the first impression, I will be taking my car elsewhere.
Good place to get your parts replaced and more affordable then hole in the wall shops
Maskholes. Not a mask in sight. Prima donna mechanic didnt want to do fix I suggested. Took 2 days to get diagnosis. Desk has communication problems. Lilly was great. Threw in a token discount and offered to put it back on the rack to show me. On the upside I dont doubt the quality of the work and close to my neighborhood and do inspections.
Great care without trying to sell you services that you dont need. Fair, fast, trustworthy and friendly.
The staff is professional and friendly, they let me know what I needed and what my options were. I feel that they are truly honest and thats the most important thing when trying to find a mechanic. Thanks
I was going to take my car to get my brakes checked at a different location but on my way I noticed Cambridge Auto. Iβm so glad I did. They took me back to show me the issues I had going on with my car and educated me about the process. The manager, Lily, was extremely professional and sweet which made a potentially stressful situation a breeze. They also had a clean and comfortable waiting room, which for me is a plus. The whole process was easy. I highly recommend this place!
Honest and friendly mechanics. Iβve been taking my vehicles here for years. They donβt Nickle and dime you, and are always very efficient at getting the work completed.
I have gone to Cambridge Auto for years.they are always helpful and informative but above all fair and courteous.i would refer them to everyone! They got a stuck lugnut off of our truck also!
95,000 mile checkup. Gave me a list of upcoming needs of my auto due to age and mileage, but didnt push me to get any of them done immediately. Appreciate the warnings, and will stay on top of possible repairs.
Good people great service
Awesome service and great group of guys. Really recommend this place
Thank you for helping me out yall did good
After calling multiple garages in the area who were unwilling or too busy to help me, I called and was told by Jesse they could help me. My 2013 kia forte folding mirror motor kept running even w the keys removed, draining the battery. I tried removing a few fuses but nothing worked. When I showed up Jesse got my info, and talked to a mechanic Josh, once Josh hear what happened he walk outside to the car, popped off the door cover and disconnected a wire. Fist bumped me and said this was his good deed for the day. These guys didnt even charge me the diag fee and said it was on the house. Im going to the atm though to give em 20 bucks each! I am coming back here for everything. They saved my time, money, and energy. Thanks broskis! πππ€
Owner is great. Staff very knowledgeable. Awesome service.
Best auto technicians in San Antonio, they are good honest people.
I had my car serviced at this location. Jose is very professional and described the issue in detail and provided an estimate very realistic. The work was scheduled and completed on time. The quality of the service is exemplary. Also this repair shop is on Costcos Repair program, so you get coupons from Costco.In the past I have been to service centers associated with the dealers. Always felt that I was paying more or doing some fixes that werent necessary. But here, everything was very transparent and I felt being treated honestly (in fact the first time at a repair shop in USA). I recommend this place for sure.
First off all the Front staff of Service advisor are Very professional. You just donβt find that anywhere. My experience was awesome. I went in and I was greeted by Jesse and Jose . They listen to what I had to say with out any double guessing. I knew I was at the Right place for Automotive service. As a female Iβve been hesitant in the past with other Shops . Thank you Cambridge auto Center for your Professional experience . I weβll be back
Jesse was super nice and helpful! Lylyn also assisted me with my vehicle inspection and made it quick and easy!
Kind and professional. They went the extra mile. I felt like I was being educated not talked down to when they were explaining my car to me.
Kept me informed of the progress and the price. I appreciate that.
Customer service, vehicle service in the timely manner. I would definitely go back.
Great service and in a timely manner
Great people they did everything possible to make my experience with them the best possible. Ive been to many shops here in Texas but none of them have I looked forward to the next time I need there services like these folks! Thank you Cambridge automotive.
Not good. I was running after them to follow up on the part they were supposed to order for my car. Kept saying will call me back but they never did.
Jessie was professional, kind and knowledgeable. They showed me pictures of the problem and explained what needed to be done. They understood how life has its ups and downs and didnt make me feel pressured to spend money with out thinking about it. Will definitely go again.
I took the car to get a pre purchase inspection for my own car. The service was amazing. Jesse was upfront about the problems the tech found and gave me recommendations as to what was the most important to do. He gave me advice and did not try to up sell me. With the condition my car is in, that couldve easily happened elsewhere. I will definitely be taking my car there when Im ready to start on repairs. Thank you for your great service!
Jesse was great and the staff was wonderful ! I would definitely recommend this auto shop, and this will be the first place that comes to mind whenever I have car issues! Every time I called to check up on my vehicle Jesse was so quick to respond and give me an answer. When I heard about this shop on the radio I immediately took my vehicle and I can assure you that they werenβt lying about it being one of the best in San Antonio !!
I came in for a diagnostic and they were really nice and fast. However, They wanted to charge me $499 to change my radiator fan which I thought was too expensive because its a very accessible part of the car. I actually went out and searched for a new radiator fan and I found one for $175 and my friend changed it for me for free in under an hour when they wanted to charge me $265.95 just for the fan alone. So I would definitely say that this place is super pricey but they have good costumer service, theyre nice and if you actually have that much money to spare then go get it fixed here. I do think its pricey because Im a college student with just a part time job but they gave me a discount for the diagnostic. If you have a good paying full-time job I feel like this is the place to go for repairs.
I have been to this place 2 times, and very happy with my work done, they are very professional and quick, I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to get anything done on their car π
Cambridge Auto Center did a fantastic job on the repair of our vehicle. Weve had them fix multiple vehicles and have always been pleased.We recently took our car in for a brake replacement and since we drove it way longer that we should have with bad brakes, we had multiple issues. Lily Nunez went out of her way to check all warranties which ended up saving us quite a bit of money. Im sure this cost them time as it would have been easier to just charge us for it, but that is the extra mile they are willing to go for their customers and that is why I will continue going back.
Customer service was great and they really try to take care of you. If needed they provide you with shuttle service. Lily is very inviting, courteous and will explain everything that was done on my car.
I own a 2009 BMW and have used Cambridge for a few years. I have always been happy with their work and their employees are always great to deal with. I highly recommend them.
It was my first time coming to Cambridge Auto Center. My vehicle was in need of immediate assistance. I searched online for mechanic shops close by my job to take it in. I highly recommend Cambridge Auto to anyone needing vehicle assistance! Lily was very pleasant and friendly upon arrival. For a woman, she knew her stuff! The mechanics were very knowledgeable as well and seemed to be working very hard. Prices are very reasonable. I left work feeling worried and anxious about the work that needed to be done for my vehicle. Cambridge staff provided me with a very positive experience from the minute I walked in to the door! Keep up the great work and the positive vibes! Thank you!
High ll y knowledgeable mechanics. Reasonable prices. Free Courtesy car services.
Took my wifeβs older model (2007) Volkswagen and my (2015) Golf to get serviced and with the help of Jesse at the front desk, we were able to identify some crucial repair and services for my visit.*100% professional, communicative and trustworthy auto shop.*Thanks to everyone at Cambridge Auto for helping me and my family stay safe on the road and get some quality work done on our vehicles!
Easily the BEST auto shop in San Antonio. Everyoneβs friendly, the waiting area and the bathroom is clean, and they donβt try to up-charge you or get you to buy a bunch of services you donβt need. They really look out for you like youβre their family. I trust them 100%!
Absolutely the best auto repair shop around. Lily was my service advisor. She was so kind and explained things in a way I could understand. The office is clean and they gave me coffee while I waited and then even gave me a ride home. That is unheard of where I am from. The technicians were able to figure out the problem with my car quickly and fixed it! I am so thankful to have found this shop. I will be back for sure.
They are great! Theyve taken such good care of my vehicles. Great customer service! Reasonable prices, and quick turn around!
The whole process was wonderful and pleasing.
I brought my car in for an oil change and estimate. They performed a standard oil change and sent me not only the estimate, but videos showing me how the parts that needed replaced work so I was able to understand why they needed replaced. They also took my car thru the wash, which was greatly appreciated. I will definitely be taking my car here in the future for any work that needs done.
Cambridge Auto Center is my familys go-to auto repair shop for the last 10 years. Much more trustworthy and reliable than the dealership. I am completely satisfied with the services I received with the prices being lower and very competitive.
I went in for an inspection. I was greeted when I came in the door. They took my keys. I was out in about 30 minutes. They were great. I will definitely go back for any service on my Dodge.
Reviewing for L. Reyna who recently had work done there. I have nothing negative to say about them. Amazing people. All so pleasant & helpful. Great attitudes. Just a good overall experience.
The very first time I had brought my vehicle in for a repair was back in, I believe, June when it wouldnt run and I had to have it towed to them by my insurance company. Cambridge was recommended to me by a family member. Jose Martinez was very helpful and well responsive in helping me during my dilemma at the time. I have been going there ever since for auto repairs.
When I was having some suspension issues with my vehicle, Cambridge was recommended by a few people at my work. I must say, I have not been disappointed! Amazing customer service and a quick turn around on vehicle completion. Lily is always very professional and lets me know exactly what the repair plan for my vehicle is. These guys in the shop to some great work and my little Mazda is back to driving like the day I bought it!
My car is only 9 months old. Brand new 2019 Hyundai Accent. I went to Cambridge and the customer service was awesome. They diagnosed the problem. Decided not to charge me the 99.98 because the car is brand new and should not have issues at 16,000 miles. They told me the next steps on what to do with my dealership and says I should have a warranty on my car and they should replace it but if they give me trouble to contact them. This is my second time going to them and I will continue to go to them for any of my repair needs. Thank you guys so much.
Professional shop to get very quality auto work done. The staff are professional, and polite. The communication is above what is expected. I always knew what was going on with my vehicle and the time frame for for my vehicle to be completed. I will continue to use Cambridge Auto Center as my auto repair shop.. Thank you to all the staff. Prosche Boxter S 05/15/2020
Was very satisfied with the service and quality of repair.
Very dependable and they do the work that is required. Fantastic on their guarantees.
Polite staff and very quick with their service. Came in to patch a tire and they made sure to advise me of another issue instead of me finding out on my own later when itβs too late.
Cambridge Auto Center is the preeminent place for all our car repairs and needs. Lily and Jose provide the absolute best Customer Service and work to get our car service at the best possible price. The technicians provide top notch work backed by an ironclad guarantee. We absolutely love this place!
Excellent service from reception to finish. Given detailed info on repairs with periodic updates, ride service to & from, clean & comfortable setting for customers.Mr. Ortiz, Service Advisor, was courteous, professional, who made auto repair less stressful to the customer.
I am always treated with respect. The front office personnel are professionaland friendly. They are trustworthy and know what theyre doing. They will give you an evaluation, price quote, and then you decide. Have been going to them for many years as needed and never been disappointed with quality of their work. I live close by and they have provided transport back home while my car is worked on. I RECOMMEND THEM!
Professionals..positive experience
Great customer service and very reliable shop!!! Have been taking my car there for years and the staff is always upfront with you about everything. Highly recommend!!!
They are expensive . They told me one thing and my husband something completely different and neither corresponded with the receipt ... Needless to say my truck is still messed up but hey they seemed polite enough. I wouldnt recommend tho..
Terry, the owner, and all Cambridge employees were the absolute best to work with! We brought a 1971 Volkswagen Bus for my daughter and I wanted to be sure it was completely safe for her to drive. I was thrilled when I contacted Terry and he informed me that Cambridge could work on it and had several knowledgeable employees that would make it safe for her to drive. We picked it up yesterday and they even washed it! Could not be more satisfied with the service that Terry, Jose and Lilly gave to us! I will definitely be coming back!
After 15 years with my old mechanic, he retired. it was time to find another honest and trustworthy business to deal with. I found it with this company. my truck was repaired as I requested with no hassle. the trust & honesty is just as important as having my truck ready on time. a big thumbs up to the whole crew there!
Lied to me. Out an extra 200 and wanted me to be thankful.Edit: Pretty happy you responded. No, unfortunately this did happen. You told me it would be 50 then charged me 273. Then asked for a 5 star review which is why this exist. Its funny that you took the effort to call this a lie. Now youve lied twice. Also I see you are going through and checking the names of people who were there then talking about them. WOW.
BEST SHOP IN TOWN!!! A trustworthy and high quality shop is hard to find but they nailed it! The staff is extremely professional and takes the time explain every step in the process to keep me up to date on the status and costs of my repairs with a quick turnaround. I will definitely bring my vehicles here for work. Thank you Veronica and team for being awesome!
Excellent service! Jose is great and very accommodating. Highly recommend and will be back!
I have taken different vehicles here several times and each time the visit is pleasant and they are very honest. They do not poke your eyes out. The staff is friendly and they listen to your car concerns. The work is honest and they fix it right the first time.
Very pleasant repair experience, got my vette a/c ready for summer. Coutesy van pickup was a real plus too.
Honest, reliable and great service!! I had a 2005 Lincoln Navigator and they took care of the issues I had with it. I no longer own the vehicle because I decided to upgrade to a new vehicle. But, if I had to do it again, I would take my vehicle to them. Here is why I say they are honest. I had someone else do some work on the front end of my vehicle. My vehicle started to do the same thing and I had taken it back to the people who had done the repair work and of course they said it was something else and they couldnt fix it. So, I took my vehicle to Cambridge Auto Center, I agreed to let them diagnose the problem. When it was all said and done, it was a bolt that wasnt tightened. All it cost me was the diagnostic fee and that was it. They could have said it was something else but they didnt. This is why they are honest and good people. Something so simple and they took care of me and they DID NOT take advantage of me. I count my pennies too and repairs can be expensive. But like I said, if I had to do it again, I will take my vehicle to them. They earned my business for life.
I cannot be more pleased at the professional service I receive from the people at Cambridge Auto repeatedly. We are all in business for a profit(understandable) but they do it with sincere concern for the customer trying to please him as best they can. We would be in a better place if we all had that kind of outlook.A major advantage the folks at Cambridge have is their honesty, which is a rare find in the auto repair game.
They were cordial, quick and fixed what was wrong in one visit!
Cambridge Auto Center is my #1 choice for my auto repair needs. The front line staff offer excellent customer service and the quality of the repairs is great and done for affordable prices! Iβve been here twice now and have been treated so well! Donβt look elsewhere! This place is fantastic and will do right by your vehicle!
This place is the best. I called them before 8am (and they answered cheerfully) and told them about my mini-crisis. They handled by situation perfectly, arranged for a tow that could manage getting onto a secure facility, took my car in, fixed my car, and had it back to me before 2pm. Total repair = $80! These guys are the honest, efficient, and very accommodating.
Brought my car in for an estimate and had Jesse helping me. They are super honest and will definitely be doing my repairs.
I moved to San Antonio in 2014 and I found Cambridge online. I walked in they welcomed me and asked what they could do for me, I needed an oil change. They offered me water and asked if they could drive me home and I could wait at home till my car was finished. I was amazed at the service that they give. My car is washed and vacuumed along with an oil change. Tony along with the others have done a fantastic job. They inform me of future services that are needed on my car and help me budget it. I highly recommend this place.
Very happy with the service I received here. As a diesel owner I am usually required to visit the dealer. I called and spoke to Josh and he was more aware of my problem than the service advisor I spoke to at the dealer. They were able to provide same day service when the dealer needed three days. They quoted me a one hour price for the ecu scan and diagnoses. When the work was finished they explained what they had done witch included other repairs/adjustments that were not part of the original problem so I thought okay hear comes the big bill. To my surprise no extra charge was applied, great shop with honest professional service.
My vehicle was running rough. Needed a tune up. Prices was better than anyone else. Will take all my vehicles from now on..Mechanics really are very knowledgeable. Thank you
I brought in my car due to a vibration noise coming from the rear of the car that turned out to be a wheel bearing issue. Went back the next day and they fixed it in a little over an hour. Very nice and friendly staff and great prices! I will bring my car back for more work, highly recommend Cambridge Auto Center!
