Lindell’s Chevron & Automotive

So I came here last year to get my car inspected & passed… Came back today & the old man that works the register was pretty rude as he was last time but I didn’t pay it any mind. So they told me to leave my ins & keys on my passenger seat come to find out my ins expired so as the guy was coming to my car I told him what was going on & he said to get a picture of my current ins & it would be no problem so I did that & showed it to him. He goes gets my car & tells me I failed because I need new windshield wipers by the way which are fine & working & he said «they may be working but you need new ones» then he tells me my tint is too dark it’s 22% but needs to be 25% or higher. I came here last year w everything the same especially my tint & I passed, my tint was in my car when I got it from the dealership… I will no longer be coming here & I don’t recommend it. Their new workers are very rude & obviously will nitpick just so they don’t pass your car… If I had the choice to give them a negative star I would!

Slow service. Alfredo was very unfriendly/​unhelpful. He said my head lights are too dim along with some other nitpicking things. Failed me. I went to the inspection spot right down the street, and they said it would pass no problem, which it did. These guys are slow and unprofessional. Definitely steer clear of this place.

I got my inspection done here about a week ago. First time around I failed because I just got my car back from the shop and the onboard computer was not ready.
They told me to drive it for a few days and bring it back which I did and it passed.
Despite the hiccup, they are fast, and cheap.
I paid $ 18 and some change.
Will probably be using these guys again in the future.

We took our car to a local dealership for a vehicle inspection, we were sitting in the driveway waiting to pull into the building when they called us and said their inspection machine just broke down. They Recommended Lindell’s if we wanted it done soon and we took their great advice, the inspection and total wait time wasn’t more 20 minutes, I barely had time to check out all the taxidermy on the walls in their convenience store, I may have to go back and get one of their cool $ 7.00 ball caps.

Keith is awesome! We have 4 vehicles in our family including a 2000 Tundra. Unfortunately before Christmas we dropped off our the Tundra at another shop to have the power steering fixed and boy did we learn our lesson. We’ve had issue after issue. The truck is now back with Keith for him to fix the other mechanics mistakes. Keith is honest, fair and great to work with. I would highly recommend taking your vehicle to him. AWESOME!

Never again. Wish I had never been recommended to get my inspection done here. They were completely rude to me, from beginning to end. I’ve had my car for four years. Its always passed inspection. This guy fails me saying my tint is too dark. It’s stock tint that came on the car and has never failed.
The guys at the register taking my money was rude to me. Then I get failed. Would never recommended.
Silver lining my mechanic who referred me to them gave me my money back.
***UPDATE****This place is totally running a rip off. I got my inspection approved at a different shop. I asked about my tint. It’s fine. Obviously I passed. Avoid this place like the plague. Steer clear.

I got there on a lunch break and was concerned it looked busy. I paid for an emissions test, sat down for about 15 minutes and that was it – all done. Very professional, very fast. The owner was on-​site (same last name as the place so an assumption) which is a great sign and he and his crew should know what a good job they do. Thanks guys!

Keith did some muffler work for me, I love this guy; quickly diagnoses the problem, fixes it within a reasonable time frame, doesn’t charge an arm and a leg. How rare is that! So this guy does a lot of work in a day so don’t expect to wait on your car, just plan on leaving it with him and things will be good. I don’t know anything about the state inspection stuff.

Best place in Wilco for your car inspection. Honest, accurate, fast (unless you wait until the end of the month. Like anywhere, it’ll be crowded, and there will be a wait. But I bet there will be less of a wait than other places with the same crowd.)

I have been going here for three years in a row to get my inspection sticker. Corner of I35 access road and Old Settler’s. It was right across Springhill Suites where we were living when we first arrived to ATX. They are pretty face, straight forward. You pay inside, wait, done.
Last time I came it was during my lunch hour. It took up my whole time but there was quite a bit of folks waiting.
This year I came on 12÷31÷13 so I figured it would be packed and it was busy but not booming. The did the car pretty quickly but then parked it in front of the store and left it there… keys and all. Nobody said a thing to any of us that were waiting, I just happened to notice it was parked in between a candy crush game! what the … glad lots of honest folks in «the Rock»…but what if there weren’t? someone could have had a free car!
I finally asked a guy in coveralls if my car was done or??? was worried about it passing b/​c the back of my car has a dent (from valet parking at the Stephen F Austin hotel valet parking next door to Roaring Fork downtown, thanks a lot guys for ruining a poor college kid’s car!) and this dent is forcing my back tail light to protrude slightly BUT… everything luckily still works. and I passed.
I would only fail this place a star because I saw that same tall guy in coveralls get off a nice suburban, walk right over to this young mother with her baby in a carrier, explain everything to her and left the car door open for her.
HEY! why didnt I get that treatment? not cool. I think I only had that the first year, and I was maybe a week into being here and I needed that at that time. I felt so out of place and new.

When I was new to town I tried to go to the Firestone around the corner and the wait was over an hour. They directed me to Lindell’s and I have gotten my state inspection here two years in a row. Very fast service and the mechanic was friendly enough.

Always go here for my inspection sticker & I’ve never had to wait! Very fast & friendly service!

Tow truck driver recommended Lindell’s. After a couple of hours he was able to tell me what was wrong and fixed it promptly. Very fair price, I will go back!

Help that you would expect to get. Professional and fast.

These are the most honest mechanics I have ever come across. I will hear from an oil change mechanic that I need hundreds of dollars in repairs. Then, bring my car to them and they will tell me there is actually no problem and they do this without even charging me. I cannot say enough about these guys — there is no better.

We go here for state inspection every time. They are quick. Just sign in at the cashier who sits in the gas station, grab a bag of chips and sit out till while your vehicle gets inspected.
