Medlock Gulf

Very professional done and on time. Brake job and shock absorbers for a reasonable price.

My family has been taking our cars to Medlock for over 20 years. They do a great job, they are fast, and trustworthy. I always recommend them to people!

I had a slow leak from a nail puncture in one of my tires and was worried I would need a new tire, but I took it over to Medlock Gulf and they had it repaired in the time it took to smoke a cigarette and it only cost $ 12! Great job guys.

I have had Medlock Gulf fix my car twice in the last year. My air conditioner went out and they replaced it and got me back driving in two days. I think this was very good service considering they had to order some parts. I also had a timing belt replaced and that service was completed in one day. I always get proposals for my services from at least three different mechanics. They have always been competetive pricewise. The manager Paul is very helpful, polite and efficient. I started going there after my sister had services there and highly recommended them. You would have a hard time beating the overall experience at Medlock.

They did a good fixing some issues with my suv but they are OVERPRICED. The price difference was quite steep compared to other places hence the 2 stars. I needed my car fixed and didn’t have time to shop around.

My Tahoe was having some brake issues, so I stopped by on Friday afternoon and made an appointment Saturday morning. They called me early that afternoon and told me my pads and rotors needed to be replaced– for $ 750 (a pretty solid price in my opinion). They finished the work then called and told me my alternator needed to be replaced, when I never had any problems with it. I balked at that and they said they would replace it at no charge. I picked me car up at 4pm that same day. I trust these guys and recommend them.
UPDATE —
I had to take my car back three times and they still have not fixed the problem. Each time I was told I had to drop over $ 1,000 to fix the issue. Not 100% their fault, but it seems that I wasn’t being told the whole story. I still think they do good work, just my circumstances were a bit weird.

Absolutely friendly and helpful…
I needed new wiper blades but they didn’t have them to fit my car. They had no problem sending me to an auto parts store they recommended down the road to purchase and have them installed. Because of that – I will go back when I need them! Thanks, Medlock Gulf!

Brought my wife’s Subaru in there to have the AC checked out. They replaced the condenser for $ 1k which was a bit high. The system still didn’t work properly and I brought in a thermosensor and the Subaru technical service bulletin indicating that it needed to be replaced. They took the sensor and said they replaced it but never did and kept the sensor. I ended up having to take the car to the Subaru dealership to have them replace the sensor. Will never go to this place again.

Not the cheapest in town but reliable & friendly.
They get pretty busy so car repair turnarounds can take a day or two.
Also comparable oil change prices to the 5 minute places. Worth taking your car to a real mechanic for that stuff. Trust me.

Paul, who I believe is the manager, is great! And so is the owner, who’s name I can not remember– sorry. I came to them after I heard they were the guys that would help me get my old 95 Honda to pass emissions. Here’s the story–
I had gone to my husbands mechanic and was told I needed a new catalytic converter, paid 700 bucks and still couldn’t get my car to pass emissions. Finally after 3 people told me to go to Medlock Gulf (previously Medlock Marathon) I did. They took me aside, told me that they did not like to speak poorly about other mechanics, but explained to me that I had in fact not been given a new converter from the other mechanic. He suggested that I take it back to the other mechanic and ask them to «put the old catalytic converter back on». So we did, and then we came back to Medlock Gulf and have been going there ever since– my husband also uses them now after learning our previous mechanic was not being honest.
Long story short– these guys are honest, locally owned, and enjoyable to work with. They take their jobs seriously, and the gas is fair priced too. Everyone that I have recommended to go to Medlock Gulf has been happy with their service and prices too! Thanks guys for being so fair and honest!
