Hunter Automotive

Honest and trustworthy, 2 traits that are very hard to find when looking for a reputable mechanic. I’ve been going here for nearly 7 years. Bill is hands down one of the good ones.

Took my Mercedes here for some work and they diagnosed the problem instantly. They were very upfront with honest with pricing and explaining the issue. I would definitely come again

Great experience over all. They are very honest and upfront about everything, very convenient as they got me in quickly for quick check up, far better experience than those big companies such as christian brothers, fire stone etc. Go check them out.

Great service and no runaround or bs. They took care of the repair for my "check engine " light. Will be going back for future repairs.

I wanted to find a auto repair shop that was honest and trustworthy and I found it at Hunter Automotive in Watauga, Texas. This is my new Go To Repair Shop for any major auto repairs. They do it all except transmission and body work. It's a locally-owned business & the owner keeps a sharp eye on the business even though he doesn't have to. During a time when most shops are short staffed, he has a great full staff of Mechanics that know what they are doing. They are A+ Accredited with the BBB also. I think it's the first time I took my truck to a mechanic shop and totally did not worry about it being fixed right or being taken advantage of. They were able to tell me what was wrong, what it would cost and how long it would take. The price and timeline were very reasonable. My bill was exactly as quoted with no surprises. And when they were done my car was fixed! Thanks guys!

I was treated with respect. They couldn't fix the problem but I wasn't charged for the diagnoses. Good people good place

One of their first customers 15 years ago. Will not go anywhere else. They have become family.

Fixed air conditioner and it never worked right. They didn't put oil in the compressor and said they would fix it again but needed to drive it a while. So u did and when it totally in a 2 month time period it quite all together but ill have to pay labor all over again to have rhem fix it so ill suffer in the heat again this summer. I don't know why they did that to me.

I had read good reviews about this shop but that was not my experience. A 15 minutes diagnostic costs $135 after tax to be quoted $800 more on labor than Calloways or Watauga Automotive. It felt predatory and I can't recommend it.

I have been going to Hunters for years now and always treated well. Bill is awesome to deal with. They get busy so be prepared to wait at times but to me that is a sign of a good shop. I recommend Hunter automotive.

I've been going to this place for awhile and I'm always happy with the service, but I do want to commend them on a recent service specifically. It was about a week ago, I sent my husband's car in to get an oil change and inspection. Forecast showed hail coming in (this is just days after a ton of huge hail came through and wreaked havoc on parts of DFW). They call about 30 minutes before it was set to hit saying the car was ready. I told them I was worried about the upcoming hail (I typically walk after dropping off or to pick up because we live close enough to get a nice walk in). They said no problem, and that they could pull it into the bay to ensure the cars safety and I could pick it up the following day. So they saved me and the car the possibility of hail damage - lucky for us the hail passed over, but the kindness and consideration was very appreciated - a great neighborhood auto place.

IST I CALLED TO ASK IF THEY WORK ON THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, YES, THEN I ASKED IF I COULD GO BY THERE THIS MORNING, YES. DROVE THE CAR OVER WICH IS A 25 MIN. DRIVE. BILL WAS VERY FRIENDLY JUST LIKE THE LAST TIME I WAS THERE. BILL SAID THEY WOULD LOOK AT THE CAR AND GIVE ME A QUOTE. GAVE HIM MY CAR KEYS, AND TOLD HIM I WAS JUST GOING NEXT DOOR TO SHOP. ALMOST AN HOUR LATER I CALLED FROM THE STORE TO GET THE QUOTE, BILL SAID THAT THEY HAD JUST PULLED THE CAR IN AND IT WOULD BE A WHILE, THAT HE WOULD CALL ME. HOW EVER I WAS JUST NEXT DOOR SO I WALKED OVER. WHEN I GOT THERE I WALKED IN AND SAT DOWN,AT THAT TIME I WAS ASKED BY BILL IF THERE WAS SOMETHING HE COULD HELP ME WITH, I REPLIED THAT I DROPPED OFF MY CAR THIS MORNING, HE REPLIED THAT HE KNEW AND IF THERE WAS ANYTHING HE COULD HELP ME WITH IN AN ANGRY TONE AND AGAIN EXPLAINED THAT THEY HAD JUST TAKEN THE CAR IN AND IT WOULD BE ONE TO TWO HOURS, I SAID OK. SINCE I HAD NO OTHER WAY TO GET HOME. BUT LESS THAN 20 MINUTES LATER THE CAR WAS READY TO GO. BILL EXPLAINED WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR AND SAID IT WOULD COST ABOUT 1800 DOLLARS, I SAID NO NOT TODAY. BUT THEN HE GAVE ME A BILL FOR 156.00 DOLLARS FOR A BUNCH OF THING THAT THEY HAD TO DO TO THE CARS AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM. I PAID THE BILL. SAID THANK YOU, TOOK MY CAR AND DEPARTED. THEN I STARTED TO THINK, WHAT HAPPEN TO THE QUOTE? AND WHY DID BILL SEEMED ANGRY???. LEASON LEARNED. NEVER AGAIN BILL.

First time coming Into the shop, and was greeted by Bill (the owner) who displayed a warm smile and great hospitality throughout the service. Charles helped solve the problem quickly, and I was out in no time. Highly recommend. Will be coming back for future repairs. Genuine people And quality service!

Great service, very down to earth and do not try to upsell.

I took my 2000 F150 to Hunter Automotive because the heater wasn't working. They quickly identified the problem, charged a fsir price and had my truck back to me in just a couple hours. Robert, at the front desk, was very polite and welcoming. A friend of mine had referred me to them. I would definitely return.

Feb 07, 2021

Top notch place. Call Bill. He is awesome and his team will take care of you like they have helped me. Very impressed with his service.

Bill and the crew at Hunter have been my mechanics since 2006. They have attended to my personal vehicles as well as my fleet trucks. From simple service to working on my Northstar systems they have done it all for me. Never had an issue with the scheduling of vehicles or the problem and trust me I have the weirdest issues with vehicles.

Feb 07, 2020

Did a state inspection in under an hour. Very friendly staff. Great price.

Feb 07, 2020

Great place owned by honest people. Ive had them inspect my truck every year and I have spent a few hundred dollars here in repairs. Fast service and quality work.

I have been going to Hunter for several years. They always fix the problem. One year I went to a different place to get my truck inspection and it failed. The place said I need a Cadillac converter. I called Hunter and told him what they said. He told me to bring it by so I did. They looked at it and there was a part, that was tied into the vacuum system. I can't remember what it was called, but that was my problem. I went to auto zone got the part and replaced it. Hunter did not charge me for there help and it fixed the problem. If you want an honest mechanic with honest prices Hunter is the best place to take your vehicle.
