Tarleton’s Oak Service Center

The only service center I’ve ever been to that hasn’t hit me with unreasonable charges after the fact. I’ve consistently been surprised by how little I’m charged for the work that they do.

NEVER EVER GO HERE THEY WILL RIP YOU OFF!!! My husband got his vans spark plugs, break pads a few clips and inspection it came to 430 dollars!!! They added a extra hour to the bill. I called 3 other places and told them what we had done and what would they charge, they all came in at around 350 and that it should of never taken 3 hours. My husband has been going here for 12 years and me for 7. We never shopped around to see if we were getting the best deal because they had our complete trust, were we ever wrong to give them that.

I have been taking my cars here for over 25 years. Service is always exemplary. Prices some of the best in town. Wayne and Sam are top notch mechanics, that can work on almost any make or model. They go the extra mile. There have been several times over the years that they have encouraged me to purchase needed parts, rather than have them buy them and mark them up, because they new I could get them cheaper on the net, than they could from their suppliers. I have never had a problem with there labor charges when this has happened. Not the most physically impressive shop, but they have what they need. Over all a great place for your car.

Been going here for a long time, especially for inspections. I work on my own cars a lot but I don’t have an inspection license or anything so I have to take it to other people, but the point being, I know enough about cars to know when someone is trying to pull a fast one on me. I’ve gone to other places where I was told I needed new discs to pass inspection as mine were too thin. Well, I know my uncommon car has small wheels and small discs to start with and that mine were perfectly within acceptable parameters, so I brought it over to Tarleton where it passed with no problems. Two years later, I’m driving on the same discs with no problems, so the other place was full of it and trying to rip me off. Another place in town pulled a fast one with my headlights and hi-​beam switch but I didn’t have time to fight about it and had to let myself get ripped off. Tarleton seems to be the only honest inspection station in town, in my book, and I will always go here from now on. I try to time my oil changes at the same time just to throw them a little extra business when it’s cold out and I don’t feel like doing it in the driveway. They always get me in and out on the same day if I can leave my car.
