Auto Repair Shop in Katy, TX

“I took my truck over to Smith's Auto Repair after the dealership diagnosed my truck with needing a new engine that would cost me $10k. That was hard for me to believe when I didn't have a check engine light that came on, just a rattling noise. I went to Smith's for a second opinion, they did a thorough check of my vehicle and did not find what the dealership suggested. Chris and Michael were great in assisting me, they advised me that they are a few things that may be causing my issue and they made the repairs that they felt was the issue and they were correct. My truck is running like new, they correctly diagnosed the problem and I am extremely appreciative of their honesty and there willingness to solve my problem. They are a great team at Smith's Auto Repair!”

“This is the only place I will take my vehicles to get repaired. They always shoot straight and the prices are very reasonable. Brian runs a great shop and really cares about his customers. Chris at the front desk is top notch. If you want your car serviced by an honest, reliable shop this is the place to go.”

“5 Stars!”

“I have taken my cars there several times. They have always been quick and professional and prices are reasonable.”

“Chris was great. If you have an auto repair need go see them.”

“Quality repairs at a fair price.”

“Had issue with oil leak in my van that resulted in a big issue. I called Smith�s after getting multiple suggestions via Facebook. It was Thursday afternoon that I called and made an appointment for Friday morning. Michael was super helpful and straightforward with me. When I described the issue, he seemed confident what it could be and made no promises but said he would definitely look at it but may not get it done same day. I did say with multiple kiddos and various doctors appointments, the sooner the better would help us out. I dropped it off and my wife drove me home. Low and behold, not only did they look at it, they got it fixed at a super reasonable price. I was stranded without a car and Michael personally came and picked me up! I was impressed with their work and how they stayed on top of getting our family van back on the road! Yes they are busy and yes there is a lot of work but when they do good work and an affordable price, it�s natural they need time to look at, order parts and fix your vehicle. I hope I don�t have any issues with my vehicles but if I do, I know where I can take it! Thank you Michael and everyone at Smith�s!”

“I usually bring my vehicle to the dealer since it is under warranty but it is starting to phase out of warranty and while I like the dealer I bring it to, its a bit of a hike. I have been looking for a shop closer to home that I can trust and after doing a bit of research came across Smith's. It had been established for over a decade and kept busy which is usually a good indicator of doing good work. Customer retention seems very high.

I had some vibration at the brake pedal when using it at 65mph or higher. They quickly diagnosed this as a rotor issue and resurfaced both on the axle. I also got an alignment too as I have never had one. Price seemed fairly economical although that's not my primary concern or reason for going there. Taken it for a few drives and seems resolved.

While it was my first visit, they've earned my trust so far for future work.”

“Brian was very nice when we called. We are out of state pacing through and our dually got out of alignment from hitting a large pot hole.

“I highly recommend Smith Auto. I took my truck to them for a 2nd opinion I got from a franchise mechanic. Glad I did! They were honest with me and told me the issues that I had where the other place wanted me to replace items that were not necessary. They didn�t start the repairs until they gave me prices on the work that needed to be done and once I gave them the ok to do it they got right on it. They were hundreds cheaper in price than other shops I got qoutes from. They are a very busy shop, and now I see why. There customer service, prices and honesty were beyond my expectation! Thanks Chris and Bryan!”

“One of the best auto repair shops I have been into before. I just heard of them 1 month ago when my 2013 ford fusion started misfiring, I took it to the dealership who charged me $120 because I didn't buy their extended warranty, they called me later to tell me that I need to change a whole fuel line and few other things for $1300, I was about to give them the green light before changing my mind after calling a mechanic friend of mine who recommended this place, Smith's auto repair, to me. I took the car to them and with a friendly faces and smiles they welcomed me and gave appointment for the next day, and they said that they need to check and most likely it would be just a spark plug or coil, anyway next day these guys did the diagnosis for free to find that a small debrie caused the clog and the car was up and running again with no single dollar, next week I drove the car to Alabama in a road trip and back to katy with no issues, I was to pay the dealership $1300 for nothing and these guys saved my money.

They are honest, they will do anything to help you and fix your ride and they won't trick you to pay big bucks for nothing. I would give them even more than 5 if possible.”

“I took my car to check the brake pads and replace it, these guys have done a great job. There prices are very reasonable.”

“Brian always does Excellent work, over the years my father who is 90 now, myself, son, daughter, and entire family has saved tons of money.”

“Do not go anywhere else! Period!! Thanks Brian you are the man!”

“Best mechanic in Katy! Great service.Great communication!”

“Honest Auto mechanic shop. I worked with Brian and he fixed my car's issue at one third price as compared to what other store in Katy area and the team told me exact problem instead of selling unwanted services. Keep up the good work.”

“Smith's Auto repair is one of his kind:very honest and fair in his price.I went there thinking my alternator was dead because my car wouldn't start.He helped me towed the car to his facility for diagnostic. It was found out that the battery was dead not the alternator. I appreciated the honest diagnostic and will advise anyone to go to the Smith's Auto Repair for a honest fair work on his car. The receptionist was nice and smiling like a friend.Thank you for your service.”

“Fantastic people amd ownership. Received several quotes for necessary work around the 350 mark, and several shops stating additional necessary repairs ranging all the way up to 1100. These guys checked my vehicle top to bottom and had my vehicle ready in a day for 200. Wont ever use anyone again, no price gouging or unnecessary upsale attempts. Just good people and good work!”

“5 Stars!”

“They have always been upfront and honest about everything. If something else was an issue, they always call and let me know what's going on. I've even had a time where the repair was more than the initial quote, yet they stuck to their quote price. Great service!”

“I recently took my BMW M5 for repair to these guys. It had an engine malfunction. Brian and his team were very professional and they fixed the issue in no time. Very professional people and reasonably priced. I am very impressed. I will definitely go back for any future repairs.”

“5 Stars!”

“5 Stars!”

“Honest great quality work. These guys are very helpful and I would recommend them to anyone.”

“I recently had the clutch go out on my 2014 Nissan Versa. I was referred here by others in my hometown. These guys were great and had my car out in no time. No run around. Straight forward. Small town guys and everyone knows them so...well...word of mouth says it all!!😀”

“Great place. Also been very helpful and honest with whats going on and doesn't kill you with labor charges on your bill.”

“Nicest most honest auto repair place.. Had my oil changed at Jiffy lube and 3 weeks later I started having a warning light chime on. People at Smith's checked my car it and found I had no oil in my case and no leaks... Thank you Chris at Smith's and the Mechanic's”

“These guys are so honest and trustworthy! They have worked on my families cars for a couple of years and have always been very reasonable with cost. I was quoted an outrageous price by my dealership and went to Smiths Auto Repair for a 2nd opinion. They fixed my car for half the cost. I love these guys and trust them over my dealership. That says a lot. I highly recommend them!”

“Best service in town”

“I always use Brian and the guys at Smith Auto. Always honest, and easy to deal with. They work on all my vehicles and I never feel like they are trying to get rich of my repair. I highly recommend them.”

“5 Stars!”

“They were awesome - quoted me half of what I got from a different place. Super helpful and knowledgeable - I will definitely go back!”

“I cannot rave enough about Smith's! First and foremost, the level of service they provide is phenomenal. I just moved to the Katy area from Houston and I didn't have any information on local mechanics.

I researched on Yelp for mechanics with good ratings and Smith's came highly recommended. My truck appeared to have a leak of some sort, but wasn't sure what it was. When I called, Chris answered, told me to drop it off and they would be happy to take a look... Free of Charge!

I took my truck there and they kept in contact with me. They ran multiple tests to ensure nothing was wrong. Now normally a dealership or chain mechanic would do unnecessary tests to charge $200 to even look at a car. Not Smith's. They apologized they couldn't find anything, triple checked to be sure, and told me no charge!

I will definitely be coming back to Smith's in a heartbeat! Highly recommended!”

“If you are looking for an honest and reasonable mechanic shop, this is your place. They do excellent work and are always one of the most reasonable estimates I get. In fact, after doing business with them for a while now they have my trust.”

“We had a quote from the Lexus dealer for $7000. We decided to see what a local garage would do, and because of the excellent reviews, gave Smith's a try. We see why they have those impressive reviews! They have it in excellent working order for $2000. Quite a difference! They used their judgment in what made sense and came in at the original quote. I was impressed with the calm professionalism I witnessed while the phone rang constantly and people were treated with respect and patience. I would highly recommend them for fair prices, honesty, and mechanical expertise!”

“WOW! I would give ten stars if I could. I needed a speed sensor replaced, so I bought the part myself and called around for estimates. Smith's Auto gave me an estimate of $60-$70 while other shops wanted to charge me in the $100s range. I met with Chris and he was so friendly and honest. Each time he spoke to me and other customers, he had a sweet smile on his face and told them what they needed and didn't need for their car. And, they get A LOT of business. When I arrived, there was only one spot for me to park! My car was done by the afternoon and I paid the $60 for labor. My car is running even better than before! This shop is a little out of my range since it's kind of a far drive, but it was well worth the trip. Thank you, Smith Auto!”

“A death in the family is always a rough time. So much to plan and do. Couple that with a broken vehicle when you are traveling from out of town and you have a potential disaster on your hands.
I called around several shops and it being Easter week, some garages were shorthanded and all were busy. Yes, I even delicately tried to input that I was from out of town and had to attend to my Sisters funeral arrangements, but I understand the situation they were in. I called Smith's Auto Repair and was immediately treated with respect and compassion. They got me in the day after I called and completed the job on time and on budget. Thank you so much for making a difficult situation a little bit better.
Our truck is running great! I would, and will, highly recommend this garage to all my friends in Katy. Again, thank you.”

“I can't say thank you enough to Robert for always taking good care of my car. This is the third time I've been to this place and Robert is always quick to help and accommodate me as well as Chris. Their services are reasonably priced as well. I would definitely recommend this place. Awesome job to all the guys there and exceptional service!”

“I don't usually write reviews but I think This review will be very useful to others. This is the most honest mechanic shop I have ever dealt with, they only charged me $30.00 for something another shop was charging me $200.00 for an Audi!! So you make your own conclusion. They definitely earned a long term customer.”

“This is the second time I have used them, and my family uses them as well. I have an older car right now and it is begining to have older car problems. This place is excellent, they're trustworthy and they work quickly. My first repair here was an altenator, I had classes until 6 so they let me pay over the phone and left my keys and the reciept in the car. Someone forgot to leave my car unlocked though so I had to have Katy PD (call their non emergency line for a free pop lock) to unlock my car door. The car drove beautifully until a few months later. It had a hard, inconsistent idle and would stall out if I didn'bt put it in neutral at stop lights (it is an automatic) Smith's Auto Shop quickly found the issue, called me before doing any work to inform me of the cost and time frame I'd have my car back. They ordered the part from the Mazda dealership, had it deliever and repaired early this morning. I paid less than 130$ for the repair and I am so relieved!!
I highly recommend them, locally owned, fast,efficent and they only repair what you ask for them to repair!”

“Brian has been taking care of my cars for years. Always does a great job! Fair price on time service! If you are looking for a auto repair company that is honest this is the place!”

“Finding a trustworthy place to take your vehicle for repairs can be hard sometimes. But if you happen to take it to Smith's Auto Repair you will NOT regret it. They have earned my trust so much that i feel like if i take my car anywhere else i would be cheating on them. They are awesome! They are Honest, Super Nice, and Quick. I Recommend them to everybody I know and Just wanted People to know what they are missing out on if they don't use them! ; )”

“Brian has been taking care of my cars for years. Always does a great job! Fair price on time service! If you are looking for a auto repair company that is honest this is the place!”

“I've taken my son's car here several times, and we have been very satisfied each time. They are efficient and honest to deal with.”

“It has been years since I last used them since I do most of my own work and have owned decent vehicles. They replaced some struts and an AC system back then and the work held up well. Today guilty of procrastionation, I had them replace the belt and change out the break fluid for me this morning. Way less expensive then me putting things off until something fails and very quick.”

“Excellent service and very helpful employees.”

“5 Stars!”

“Best mechanics .. they are driven by passion to serve the community and not for money .They are going to shine in Katy”

“4 Stars!”

“Brought my Ford F150 in for 2 items, they fixed my vibration in the steering wheel which was caused by my warped rotors, they diagnosed my transmission issue and referred me to Gary's Transmission on Franz Rd. They even brought my car over there first thing in the morning so I didn't have to (very nice touch). Paid by phone for rotor repair and Gary's did an amazing job as well fixing my transmission in about a day and a half. Very pleased with both shops and will use and recommend them to anyone who asks. Thank you both! BF”

“Omg this is the place to go. I have a Trans Am 2000 and I needed a rack and Pinion replaced. They not only did a perfect job on replacing buy the price was way cheaper then all other mechanics here. I'll go here all the time. This is the spot!”

“We have been taking our service trucks to Smiths Auto for the past year. Never have I had a problem with the price or service. Great job.”

“5 Stars!”

“Awesome auto shop! Prices are great and work is top quality and completed on time!”

“The guys at Smiths automotive are very professional and capable. My 1500 blazer is outdated to say the least but they manage to sort it out time and time again for prices that can't be beaten. I've found a trusted mechanic for life.”

“Owning a Suzuki can be dreadful thing when you live in Katy. Both Houston dealerships are 50 miles away. After numerous 'rip offs' from a so called 'Christian' auto mechanic chain, I tried Smith's. The problem was my vehicle stability light and emergency brake light kept flashing. I tried the other place, and spent additional $50.00 on top of the warranty, for a diagnostic check up. Pulling at of the shop and lights came right back on at Fry and Clay. Brought the SUV to Smith's and got a call the next day that I had no brake fluid! So the other place charged me for a 'full' diagnostic check and did not check fluids.
Smith's not only found the problem, but they DID NOT EVEN CHARGE ME FOR ANYTHING! I mean really, I did not believe there where mechanics like that left. Needless to say, had my other car there two weeks later for brand new brakes. They have a lifelong customer. Amazing customer service and they are honest.”

“Our company has been using Brian for quite a while now and we find him to be very reliable and quick with service to our company vehicles. I have even taken my own personal vehicles to him for service. You will not met a more straightforward and nicer person he is a pleasure to deal with and always returns your phone call and keeps you up to date on your vehicle. I would recommend him to anyone. If you want it done right and at a great price go see him.”

“This place is amazing! I took my car to them after reading the ratings and reviews let me tell you the reviews are definitely on point. The guys at this shop are wonderful they took the time to explain to me what the actual problem was with my car. Which is awesome. So thankful I found them. Chris and the guy that worked on my Pt Cruiser were both wonderful. I could say so much more but I don't want to take up too much space. Thanks Smith's auto you guys seriously saved me $400. I wish I would have found you guys a long time ago. Definitely have a new lifetime customer in me. :)”

“Great group of workers! Honest and do the job right the first time. Would HIGHLY recommend to everyone.”

“Before I got in the door I had a good vibe about Smiths Auto..Chris in the front was very polite and helpful.. I was having ac problems and they checked it out and found out it needed to be look out further cause it probably was electrical since it was full of freon and the fuses were good..no charge that day so I took it back Monday they found the problem a relay switch. .it wasn't that expensive and I always had good service from all I dealt with and Brain the owner was the best and told me if I had any issues with ac to make sure I give him a call and that's what I plan to do if I need anything else done to my car..I've recommended them to some friends and whoever else is looking for a good and honest mechanic Smiths Automotive is the place to call!”

“Best Mechanics EVER!! I recommend them to everyone.”

“there is no place better, these guys do an awesome job.”

“This is the most honest mechanic shop I have ever dealt with, they only charged me $30.00 for something another shop was charging me $200.00. So you make your own conclusion. They definitely earned a long term customer.”

“I found Brian Smith auto repair about 3 years ago and I'm SO HAPPY. They do excellent work. Brian and all the guys are polite and very competent. Excellent mechanics, I'm trying to say. Prompt, too.
I don't understand why but MY computer says Skip Bradley- no it is not him. I work with that man.
I am Jennifer Culberson and B. Smith auto repair takes excellent care of my car!!!”

“Best mechanic in Katy, Honesty really is their policy. Brian has saved me $1000 twice in making the right repair instead of doing what I thought was the problem. Family business that has successfully transitioned to the younger generation, by keeping the values that made them a respected business in Katy for years.”

“I've been a Smith's customer for over 10 years. They provide dependable, accurate, & honest service. Fixed once, on time and on estimate. What more can you ask?”

“I was recommended Smith's Auto from a friend, whose family and company they work for uses Smith's. Very upfront and reasonable. I would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for honest and great work on mechanics.”

“I have been using Smith for about 5 years ever since a friend recommended it. I know recommend them to all my friends! Any automotive problem I bring to him he can fix and he does it fast and very affordably. I drive from three towns away just to come to them.”

“Awesome service! This shop was recommended by Katy Lube since our vehicle had a check engine light on that would not pass state inspection. Smith Automotive had to replace a bad cat and an O2 sensor. After driving the vehicle for a short time thereafter, the dreaded check engine light came back on caused by the same O2 sensor. We took it in a second time to Smith Automotive, They spent a great deal of time to check of the grounds, wiring to the ECM, and the sensor. Finally they determined that the sensor must be bad from the factory (not a common occurance), they replaced the sensor and spent a lot of time running tests to ensure that the vehicle would pass inspection. Once they determined the vehicle would pass inspection, (we left our proof of insurance with them) they took it to Katy Lube for inspection. It passed and they only charged us for the inspection. It shows you that they definately stand behind their work! Brian and Chris are really nice to deal with.”

“I have had issues with 2 vehicles over the last year...that is never fun and ALWAYS stressful. Brian and his team are very honest and could have easily said I needed more work than what the actual issue was. You can tell that Brian is just an honest person, out to help people. All of the guys are very knowledgeable. It is so refreshing as a mom and a woman to walk into a place and feel like you do not have to worry if someone is going to take advantage of you. They have a customer for life! : )”

“5 Stars!”

“I took my car to Smith's Auto Repair for an overall inspection for repair, fluids change, and a replacement of all four struts. Brian Smith and his team had been referred to me by my girlfriend's family who claim they have been using him for many years.

I found that Brian was very personable and seems very honest. My car drives 100% smoother than before and the price that I paid was $200 - $500 less than other shops quoted me. He backed his work up with a one year, 12,000 mile warranty and stressed that if I had any problem with the work, to call him and bring my car.

I had a great experience and I will use his business again.”
