This place is WONDERFUL! I got in my car today (2007 4Runner) and several lights were on including the engine light. I wasnt near my house, and I had tons of appointments for work the next day, and it was 4:30pm. I started calling places including Toyota. Everyone had me describe the lights, and told me that "with that combination of lights, I would need to bring it in" and no one could look at it that day, Id have to leave it over night. I was really nervous and worried, wasnt sure if it was ok to drive, and terrified that I had a huge expensive problem on my hands. I googled car repair shops, and this place popped up and had good reviews. I called, and they were the ONLY ones that told me anything about what the lights meant, and said to bring it by and theyd take a look, even when I said it would take me 30 mins to get there. Once I got there, he took a look and said that two of the lights automatically come on when the engine light comes on (no one else told me that!) and that he would just need to see why the engine light was on. He hooked it up, said it was a gas leak, and immediately checked my gas cap. Turned out, I had a faulty cap that was coming lose even after I would twist it all the way on! They could have totally scammed me and made a quick buck. I had no idea what was wrong and was worried it was something really bad. I am a social worker and am in the middle of moving, so a big car expense would have killed me. I could have cried I was so grateful!! They maybe didnt make money off me today, but they definitely gained a customer. I will be taking my car to them from now on, any time there is an issue. They are absolutely wonderful, and it is so nice and so rare to be a female going into a car shop with no idea whats wrong with her car, and not get ripped off or at least be worried that is going to happen. I will be recommending them to everyone from now on!!

I was sold on this place because of all the great reviews. Unfortunately, my experience wasnt so great. Ive never felt the need to ever leave reviews until now. I took my truck in due to stalling and not being able to get it to start. Also needed an alternator. Replacing the alternator turned out ok but the main problem of stalling remained and got worse. 2 parts were replaced and also the alternator. Over $400. Not terrible but I dont have a whole lot of money so thats a decent hit to the wallet for me. First time it was "ready" to pick up it dies while he is showing me what he fixed. Along with showing me the new leak that was now there at the lower intake. This problem wasnt there when I dropped off my truck. He himself checked and listened for leaks the day I dropped it off in front of me. He said youd be able to hear a leak and that he didnt hear anything, neither did I. So a leak wasnt the culprit, which is why he replaced a part behind the intake. I asked if I could leave it so he could fix the problem which is why I took it in the first place. He was going to let me leave. He was busy so I told him to take his time because I wanted it to get fixed properly without any time crunch. It was a week and a half total. Now its worse and the whistling from the new gasket leak can be heard with the door closed and window up. This was never an issue. He gets lots of 5 stars, maybe for smaller repairs idk. My truck wasnt fixed at all. Nice guy n all but the outcome was definitely the worse Ive ever experienced and Ive dealt with a good handful of shops. Now Im about to spend more $ that I hardly have to try and get the original problem fixed. Along with a gasket leak. Like I said, I was convinced by the reviews. I ran into him the same day at autozone and told him it was worse. Didnt seem to care too much. Hope this helps someone out there.

I was in a real bind...my car was parked on an elevated driveway and would not start which was causing me to be late to work. I wasnt able to get another car anywhere close to my car to jump it because I was in between some trees. I called a couple auto places to help me and they told me to call a tow truck which would be at least $75 - $90 just to get me a couple blocks to their shop. As a last ditch effort we called PV and spoke with Richard. He was extremely kind and said he could come over and see if he could jump it. He showed up literally 5 minutes later and took a look at the situation. He determined it was due to loose cables (I will never have the workers at AutoZone put in another battery on any car I own). He got me properly connected and it started right away. Richard was a lifesaver as well as a money saver. I will never go to any other auto mechanic again. AND I will always recommend them. Thank you again Richard!

One of my SUVs radiator hoses popped on the way downtown for lunch and left the cooling system completely empty. I looked up repair shops in the area and found several, but P V Autos reviews left me impressed. After temporarily refilling the radiator, I drove over to their location. Despite the shop being closed for the week and while doing repair work on his own personal vehicles, Richard took the time to look at the leak. After having me buy a replacement radiator cap due to the old seal failing, he proceeded to replace the radiator hose in the mid-day Dallas heat (remember the shops bays were full with cars already being worked on). Not only did he repair the vehicle, but he did so at a fair price. Any time I need a mechanic in Dallas, I will be back to P V Auto Services. Thanks Richard!

AMAZING work! Rick and his team went above and beyond routine care when it came to my vehicle and my budget. Their quality of workmanship is fantastic and at super low prices. That is why I felt the need to take time and comment about this superb performance. This company really helps its customers and is trustworthy. Not only that, but their pricing is the lowest you will ever find in a 20-mile radius. So to all those seeking excellent service at low cost - this is the #1 spot I recommend. Thank you PV Auto and Rick for helping me so much in fixing my car!

Awesome place. I needed to have my window regulator replaced and PV Auto Services did it for two hundred dollars less than the other auto repair shops I visited. While I was there I asked if they could remount my rear view mirror that had fallen off. They told me about a place down the road that could do it for me, but they ended up remounting it for free when they fixed my window without even mentioning it to me. I will be returning to PV Auto Services for all of my future car problems.
