Been going to PV for 4-5 years since moving to Dallas. Haven’t gone anywhere else for major work. Trust worthy service and always a great vibe from the owner & team!

Honest people aren’t easy to come by these days, especially as a female looking for a mechanic. Richard at P V Auto has been nothing short of honest and amazing. Thank you Richard, for being one of a kind. It truly makes life easier!

I completely trust this place. I have brought 2 cars here and have always gotten the lowest quote and the best quality and really in a very fast way. Richard is kind and cares. I know this because he sits down with me and walks me through the quote. He Understands and suggest alternatives when there is something I cannot afford at the moment. I won’t take my cars anywhere else.

I had Richard look at my old car when I first moved to dallas in 2018. He diagnosed the issue quickly and for cheap. It turned out to be an issue that wasn't worth the money to fix, as so many things on the car were broken and the car had 100k miles on it I believe. I have my car with him now, and when I told him the issue and what had been done at another shop, he verified what I thought it was quickly, super friendly when I dropped it off, and answers the phone when you call. It's a small shop with what seems like an unusually large number of parking spots, so it looks they are working on a bunch of cars at any given time. In a fairly decent area, right off of Ross Ave near a bunch of businesses, many open late...not sure what security they have in the lot (if they do at all), but the second time I dropped it off at night, had it towed from the highway, I noticed the lot is brightly lit even at 10pm or so when I was there. Seems like a safe place for your car to be overall. His estimate was less than what insurance thought it should be, and far less than what a couple other shops in the area wanted to charge for the fix. Super easy to work with, friendly, jovial in person, and seems to know his stuff. I will, likely, take my car here for any future issues/repairs it might need.

I recently had my car serviced by PV Auto Services, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The work was excellent, and the cost was incredibly reasonable. It’s rare to find such high-quality service at a fraction of the price. I highly recommend PV Auto for anyone in need of reliable and affordable auto repairs. Thank you for your outstanding craftsmanship and dedication!

Richard deliberately destroyed two of my cars. The first car was a Lexus that was paid for. I brought my car in to change my oil and check my fluids before I went out of town. And he deliberately left my radiator gap off! After replacing the radiator, he suggested that I get rid of my paid for car because I would soon have issues with the motor. So I traded my car in and got a Mercedes! He never admitted to what he did to the radiator cap. Instead, he claimed it just was old and fell off. But mind you he was the only person that touched the car and approved it to be driven out of town!After I got the Mercedes I took the car to him to replace Swaybar links. Richard is a very convincing liar. I gave him the benefit of the doubt and let him do work on my Mercedes.After he changed my sway bar links my car was still running hard so I asked him to check it. He refused for an Over a week he put me off and gave me excuses why he could not test drive my car. But instead he looked over it And deliberately beat one side of my axle in the wheel of my tire! I drove all the way past Austin and back on a broken axle. Once I was on the freeway headed out of town. I immediately called Richard and told him it felt like I was losing control of my wheel. Richard got very quiet over the phone just waiting for me to wreck out But God took the wheel and straighten my car back up. I made it to where I was going and back. I didn’t trust Richard anymore so I took my car to another mechanic to get a second opinion, that mechanic told me that my axle had been deliberately beaten into my wheel and that’s the only thing that saved me. He showed me the axel the way it broke. Richard is still denying! And is threatening to call the police and file harassment charges on me for calling him and trying to get him to do the right thing! This man is a snake in the grass. He will look you in your face and tell very convincing lies! He is sneaky he will put aftermarket parts on your car without you knowing ! He will pretend like he is doing you a favor using aftermarket parts and not making you aware that if you use aftermarket parts on certain cars, it will make A conflict in your warranty contract! He also uses cheap oil.He’ll Sneak use random objects out of his shop from old cars that he has worked on just to keep from having to walk across the street to AutoZone to get new parts and to save money! he will rig your car! Customers trust Richard, and leave their cars in his care, and as soon as they turn their back to leave and go home! He hires someone less fortunate and unexperienced to work on the car so he can save money! And he also doesn’t really wanna work instead he wants to walk around the shop Or solicit women! Not only that after hours he hires the neighborhood homeless guy whom is a drug addict And alcoholic to work on cars and pay him five or $10! He even had the homeless guy to work on cars after he stated that he was hung over ! He gets a kick out of using people who have less than him! He laughs at the fact that the homeless guy told him that he was recently diagnosed with cancer. So he does work for Richard so he can get money to catch the bus to the hospital! Richard has that man doing very difficult jobs, and will pay him a little of nothing ! He claims that his workers steal tools From him!He will also bill his customers according to his personal bills. Richard was sitting in a car that have been dropped off and letting the car run, knowing it did not have a drop of oil in the engine! He deliberately did it so The engine would have to Be replaced! He also solicits women, and works on their car!And then lies about it!When I do get him on the phone, he tell me if I believe that he has damage my vehicles to go ahead and sue him. I told him I was going to write this report he told me go ahead people get bad reviews all the time , so I guess he doesn’t feel it will affect his business! I have tried to get him to do the right thing for months and he has lied on me to the bitter end!! he also lied to the police! Beware of This scammer!

Fair prices and good service.

Family was going to the mechanic for years and years. haven’t been there in a long time but I gave the chance and then they tried to overcharge me and also stole stuff from the car. The mechanic said he left the car over the weekend, but there was no signs of forced entry, doors were locked, and the stuff that was stolen were things mechanics would use like a drill and a paint buffers. I literally opened my car to the middle console open with all the stuff inside of it everywhere. The keys were in his possession , and in his lot with the doors locked. Beware this shop is not what it once was.

Incredible service and pricing, this family business owner Richard will take great care of you! Before you get hosed by a dealership or another auto shop, call Richard. You’ll thank him and your pocketbook!
Nov 27, 2023
Always helpful and informative at a fair rate.

Came here to get my battery replaced. I drive a hybrid so the battery is in the back. They changed it out, cleaned up some of the corrosion, and charged a fraction of what it would have been at other shops. It's a small shop so I was a little confused who to talk to at first. The gentleman helping me out was very kind. This will definitely be the first place I consider if I have any issues in the future.
Nov 27, 2023
Great place, fair but low prices.
Nov 27, 2023
Honest and friendly service. I had trouble with my a/c, kept getting the run around. I was able to have my car looked at and fixed in less than and hr. Thank you again!!
Nov 27, 2023
Honest owners and mechanics, unbeatable prices! The only place I’ll take my vehicles to in DFW. Richard is always easy to work with and very fair pricing.
Nov 27, 2023
I've been going to PV Auto for about a year now, and it's always a great experience! Very timely and reasonable prices.
Nov 27, 2023
Place was extremely busy love the fact that they were open extremely late even though they were helping about six other people at once I was still able to get my tire replaced and was out of there in less than half hour price was reasonable a little about what I thought I would pay for a used tire $40 but overall convenience was worth it.
Nov 27, 2023
Richard has a good reputable business....have brought two vehicles on two separate occasions and both times he has been honorable and done good work ..do recommend
Nov 27, 2023
Richard is a great guy and owns an awesome shop. If you’re like me and know nothing about cars come here. They tell you everything you need and nothing that you don’t. Also came in last minute and they got it done in the same day. Highly recommend this place.
Nov 27, 2023
Richard is an honest and nice guy. Fixed up my Lexus for half of what other shops were charging and in a timely fashion. Highly recommend.
Nov 27, 2023
Richard is the best. I haven't met a more honest mechanic. He is patient, reliable and the price is amazing and He has your vehicle done in a timely manner. I have used him several times
Nov 27, 2023
Richard was extremely nice and helped me know what I needed on my car. Come to find out no repair was needed and he didn’t charge me a penny even after an assessment.
Nov 27, 2023
Richard with PV Auto Services is definitely a God send! I drove over an hour to his shop based upon the reviews and he did not disappoint! I called him prior to dropping it off to describe the problem that I was having and he not only accurately diagnosed the issue but also gave me an estimate to repair over the phone. I had called 5 other auto repair places including the Nissan dealership who all told me that it could be a number of issues that would probably result in costly repairs and that they could not diagnose it until I paid for an expensive diagnostic first. Richard not only accurately diagnosed the issue but also ended up charging me less than his original quote! I can’t even express how grateful I am for his honesty and kindness as it is always a scary endeavor for a woman who knows nothing about car repair to find someone trustworthy and not trying to take advantage. My car has never run better! I have a 2008 Xterra and the drive home was the smoothest it’s driven in years! Thank you Richard! You have a new customer for life!

Spent about $1000 over a few visits and they never fixed my car.
Nov 27, 2023
Super nice people at this shop and fantastic to work with!
Nov 27, 2023
What a great mechanic! Richard found a way to fix my car in a way that required less labor, and less money, than other mechanics suggested. Affordable and honest. Yahtzee!

You know how you want to be able to say “I’ve got a guy” ? Richard & PV Auto is that guy. His team finished two axels of brakes on my Pilot in 1.8 hrs and his price was $200 LESS than any other quote I found. This place is the type of place that’s slowly disappearing and becoming a thing of the past-honest, privately owned mechanics. Reminds me of the small town shops from back home in North Dakota. Best prices and service I’ve found in Dallas. Let ‘em cook.

Do not take your car here! My car was stolen while at the shop getting repairs. I basically got a phone call saying, “sorry about that. “ They made no attempts at all to remedy the situation. Richard told me their business was not insured and also told me cars have been stolen from their shop before.
Nov 27, 2022
Dudes on point. Great service and great prices.
