🔧 Goose Auto Repair - Bandera

I brought my 1970 nova in for a total timing set up. Joseph at the front desk and the guys working in the shop were fantastic. They explained everything to me and they were genuinely nice guys. I will definitely recommend others to their shop.

This is one of those mechanic shops that take advantage ,cause damage and give shops a bad rep. I guess I messed up by letting them know I was here on vacation and obviously I have to drive home, they definitely charged me accordingly. No moral integrity within the shop. 4 lower ball joint bolts connected to the knuckle needed replaced, one needed drilled out and tapped for threads. Almost $500 dollars for this, this was even WITHOUT a diagnostic fee as no diagnosis was needed. I was quoted $427 for 4 bolts and 1 retapped. To keep on about terrible prices when it was time to pay they wanted to charge me $580 and some change. I reiterated to the man that they quoted me around $400 and had some back and forth with them. After a little typing on his computer he said that “he must have made a mistake” and granted a different quote of $470. Absolutely careless and not even the first sign of trying to steal my money. Of course there were attempts at up-charges, I declined all. This part may be subject to opinion as I do almost all of my own work and am not familiar with shop prices. Though they did absolutely obliterate my upper control arm for no reason as well as damage to my spindle. It is not nessesary at all whatsoever to remove the upper ball joint to remove the lower. So the structural strength of upper arm is compromised completely (pic attached) but of course no compensation even after admitting they caused the damage. On top of the damage and gouging on price, I overheard the staff making disrespectful remarks about myself and another older gentleman before they noticed I was there. There was also very little communication from them about the whole process I had to initiate every conversation and update. Just not a good face for a business. I wish that was the last thing but to finish it off they are either incompetent or lazy mechanics. They left the main lower nut of my lower ball joint completely loose when all you have to do is hold the top of the bolts head still while you tighten bottom nut. I had to take my truck to a different shop the next day and get this fixed. Overall a terrible experience, I cant imagine how many folks they do this to on a regular basis. I would not recommend this shop at all. UNPROFESSIONAL DISRESPECTFUL AND SABOTEUR

I’ve had my vehicle serviced here on multiple occasions, and each time I’ve been thoroughly impressed with the quality of work and professionalism. I would confidently recommend them to any friends or family in need of vehicle repairs or diagnostics. The manager, Andi, goes above and beyond to ensure everything is handled promptly and with great attention to detail. It’s clear they genuinely care about getting the job done right and keeping customers informed throughout the process. Trustworthy, efficient, and reliable — I won’t take my vehicle anywhere else.

Amazing service with a smile. After having my vehicle at a different repair facility for over a week, it never being completed nor repaired properly and almost ruined , I decided to take it to Goose Automotive on Bandera. They were able to fix the damage the other shop had done and fix the car properly in two days!!! Impressive!! Excellent customer service in the front office by Joseph and excellent craftsmanship on the floor by Jake. This shop is highly recommendable and I am extremely satisfied and at peace now having the car repaired properly and on a superb timely manner. Thank you Goose Automotive
