Questions
How much do brakes cost in Houston?
Front pads and rotors on most cars run about $350 to $700 for one axle, depending on the car. We measure first and send the price before we start.
Do I still need a state inspection in Texas?
Texas ended the yearly safety inspection for most passenger cars in 2025, but Harris County cars still need a yearly emissions test. Ask us and we will check your car’s due date.
How much is a check engine diagnostic?
Most shops charge about $120 to $180 to find the cause. Ours is $149, and we credit it toward the repair if you fix it with us.
What does your warranty cover?
Parts and labor for 24 months or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first, and it is honored at partner shops nationwide.
Why is my A/C blowing warm air?
Most often a small leak has let the refrigerant out. We find the leak first instead of just adding more, and your car may use the newer R-1234yf refrigerant.
