Customer Reviews

Michael W. from Houston on 10/1/2019 for an auto service and their testimonial is:

"I have taken many vehicles to many repair shops over the past 71 years, so it has real significance when I say that the Kirkwood facility gave by far the best auto service I have experienced in my entire life. A 96 Camaro Z28 turned out to be a difficult and highly problematic restoration in the hands of another shop; it largely defeated that mechanic's considerable expertise which was not prepared to address the complexities of a newly assembled LT1 383 engine. Anthony and his staff both at Kirkwood and Briar Forest worked with lengthy and dogged persistence to raise the entire drive train to optimal performance. When a computer tuning remained as the final issue---all others having been successfully addressed---Anthony contacted an ECU expert who is almost certainly the only person in the Houston area who can tune a 93 through 97 LT1 to perfection. The shop has installed brakes, rear end, fuel system, dash instrumentation, fuel rails, fuel injectors and other components and services comprising just too many to list. The staff worked many hours on engine problems for which I was not charged. Even in the realm of superb service, a business can stand out for unusual attention to detail and a genuinely friendly demeanor. In the massive field of Houston auto shops, McDaniel's Auto Care possesses an unusual and distinctive excellence."

Mullen from Houston on 9/22/2019 for an auto service of their Malibu and their testimonial is:

"While not the cheapest, you will get quality work and they do update you on any potential problems but will discuss solutions, and always get your verbal approve before going forward. I've had transmission work done, and they saved my transmission after years of Houston wear and tear. Right now, my air conditioner is approaching completion and they alerted me to waiting on a part, and offered a loaner car. Good work, guys."

"First visit ... outstanding customer service! New to the Houston area and concerned I wouldn't find a trustworthy shop. Anthony McDaniel was extremely knowledgeable and kept me up to date on the work and their findings. He was a pleasure to deal with and helpful to all of the customers he encountered throughout the morning. (I stuck around while they worked on the car but they do apparently have a courtesy service that will take you home and pick you up.) Will definitely return for continued maintenance and service needs."

David W. from HOUSTON, TX on 1/18/2016 for an auto repair of their GMC and their testimonial is:

"After filling my Yukon with gas across the street from McDaniel's shop, my truck wouldn't start. I walked across the street and talked to Anthony. He loaded my truck up on his wrecker and put one of his mechanics on it right away. The fuel pump had gone out so they had to drop the gas tank and replace it. Anthony gave me a loaner pickup and by 2:00 in the afternoon, my truck was finished. I had purchased an extended warranty several years ago so Anthony's admin guy handled the claim which left me with only a small portion of the total repair bill. I have already recommended McDaniel to my friends who live in the area. Great Service by Honest, Friendly people. Thanks Anthony!"

Don't waste your money on a different mechanic who will over price you and not get the job done right the first time. Take your car here and you will leave satisfied knowing your ride is in the best hands. I will continue to use McDaniel's Auto Care for as long as I live in Houston."

Ashlie from Houston, TX on 9/23/2015 for an auto service of their Nissan and their testimonial is:

"My experience was a bit complicated mostly due to my insurance company (whose name I will not mention ). Overall, McDaniels handled all of my issues with care, even when things got 'interesting.' They even performed additional services while waiting on approvals from my insurance company. We had a few hiccups however McDaniels was quick to resolve them. Honestly I'm happy that we had hiccups because I got a chance to get to know a few employees better (the men at the front desk). Two words for those two guys - absolutely amazing. A bit of advice if anyone is unhappy with their service, let them know of your issues and give them a chance to redeem themselves. You will not be disappointed."

Linda G. from Houston on 7/31/2015 for an auto service of their Nissan and their testimonial is:

Frances J. from Houston on 7/15/2015 for an auto service of their Nissan and their testimonial is:

"These are great people. They repaired the brake light switch, so I didn't have to buy the replacement part. They took care of me right away even on a walk-in appearance for a half hour of service. They were very friendly, the shop is clean and neat. I was referred to them by a co-worker because they are a great place."

Arthur D. from Houston on 4/6/2015 for an auto service of their Nissan and their testimonial is:

Michael K. from Houston on 2/27/2015 for an auto service of their Nissan and their testimonial is:

"It's VERY rare that I am impressed with a auto repair shop but today was a surprise. I have come to despise and mistrust most mechanics, as they will try to pull a fast one on you. Not today. Very pleased with the fantastic customer service, speed, professionalism, and hospitality I experienced today. On top of that, their pricing was extremely reasonable. I will be back."

Steve H. from Houston on 9/26/2014 for an auto service of their Nissan and their testimonial is:

"Others should know this repair shop has GREAT customer service. The service manager Abel De La Cerda was a very nice gentleman to deal with. The shop took care of my electrical problems and got me back on the road quickly. Everything is now working as it should. The best is that the shop is just right across the street from where I live. Thanks McDaniel and Abel!"

Patricia M. from Houston, tx on 8/28/2014 for an auto service of their Nissan and their testimonial is:

"It's tough to find great service from an auto repair shop, but I have to admit I was very pleasantly surprised by the courtesy and prompt service from McDaniel. I had taken my daughter's car to the Mr. Sticker across the street for an annual state inspection while on my lunch hour. Much to my surprise, I failed that inspection because the brake lights were not functioning. I was very concerned about driving safety with this problem and wanted it fixed ASAP. As Mr. Sticker only does inspections and oil changes, they could not do this repair for me. They recommended I try McDaniel Auto Care across the street, so I took the car over there. It was already close to noon at this point. I was assisted by Abel, who was most helpful. He looked at my car right away and diagnosed the problem as a faulty switch. He got on the phone and ordered the part, and said it would not be there until later in the afternoon, but that it would be an easy fix. I was prepared to wait, but he offered me a lift back to my office in their courtesy van. Awesome! When the work was finished, they sent a driver back to my office to pick me up at the end of the day. The work on my car was not only complete, but McDaniel was nice enough to take my car back to Mr. Sticker (a competitor, none the less!) so they could complete the inspection for me before I even arrived to pick up my car. How nice is that??? On top of it all, I thought that the repair bill was pretty reasonable. Abel told me that they will also provide loaner cars in addition to their courtesy van service. So, will I be returning to McDaniel Auto Care? You bet I will!"

Joel F. from Houston on 5/26/2014 for an auto service of their Nissan and their testimonial is:

"Usually when I receive EXCELLENT customer service somewhere; I just think that the stars were aligned that Day, and the whole experience was a fluke. However, When it happened to me EVERY single Time I went to McDaniel Auto Care on Briar Forest. My only conclusion is this is the way they treat. everybody. everybody. E"

K B. from Houston, TX on 5/8/2014 for an auto service of their Nissan and their testimonial is:

"I recieved a quote through anothor shop, before agreeing, I went to McDaniel Auto Care greeted by Anthony and Abel, with no hesitation they checked my car out. In result the previous quote was absurd with unnecessary repairs. The necessary repairs were done at McDaniel Auto Care with reasonable costs. I am now a loyal customer to McDanial Auto Care. Honest, trustworthy group they have and not to mention quit entertaining! Thanks guys!! KBROWN"

Sam C. from Houston, texas on 4/22/2014 for an auto service of their Nissan and their testimonial is:

"Honest, and trusting. I bought my car in and both Anthony and Abel test drove. They told me I had 2 motor mounts broken, but for me to check to see if my 100000 mile GMC warranty would cover, and it did. I am so glad to see a honest repair shop in my area. I will have my repairs now done at McDaniel Auto Care on Briar Forest."

James A from Houston on 1/7/2014 for an auto service of their Nissan and their testimonial is:

Carmelo A from Houston on 11/23/2013 for an auto service of their Nissan and their testimonial is:

"I had a couple problems with my 2001 SAAB ... they were superb in getting my first problem with the 'Check Engine' light going on. They found the part and installed.. car has been working great. I also had another issue with my convertible top. They did some research on it and got back to me on my options. I brought my car back in and they were able to find the part needed on the INTERNET. It took a lot of time to diagnose the problem, but the price quote never changed! Great service!"

Barbara T. from Houston, tx on 11/1/2013 for an auto service of their Honda and their testimonial is:
