Customer Reviews for Alamo Auto Center Inc.

“Finally a truly honest and fair repair shop. Took my Ford F-150 in for brake job checkup cause brake light coming on intermittently. These guys checked it out and said the the brakes were fine. Light issue could be faulty contact but brakes were good. Will use this shop for all my vehicle needs.”

“The friendliness, expertise of the employees and owner, and service performed were all outstanding. I am more than satisfied with the service provided. If I had one thing I could ask for it would be for some sort of 'stop-light' chart on the receipt to indicate the serviceability of what did not need to be changed.”

“4 Stars!”

“Steering wheel started shaking. I took my car here and the guy at the counter took time out to listen to my problem then he showed me exactly what the problem was.
I was not charged a penny, they didn't make a cent off me yet I was very grateful for the service I received and I will not take my car anywhere else but here at Alamo auto center.”

“The service and customer service is excellent. I have been taking my vehicle there since the first of the year. And will continue to do so.”

“I had a great experience with Alamo Auto Center this week. I was passing through the area on a road trip and needed a quick oil change. They were able to take me in immediately even though they were really busy and had the job done as soon as I finished my lunch. Plus their prices were very reasonable and they felt trust worthy. The good reviews online is what made me come in and I was not disappointed!”

“My car's oil change was done in a timely manner at an affordable price!”

“Good people”

“No complaints. Hard to find good service in this town, and these guys did good work. Will go back, will recommend to friends.”

“My splash guard cracked less then an hour into my roadtrip from Texas, and by the time I got to Alamogordo, my duct tape solution wasnt holding up. I found these guys on yelp, and they took the rest of the splash guard off immediately so that I could get back on my way. Great service and very friendly. I wish I lived there so I could go to them to work on my car when it needs work!”

“I had work done at a Dodge Dealership and they told me I needed new brake pads. So I decided to get my brakes done at Alamo Auto Center they looked at my brakes and showed me that they were fine saved me $200 on work that did not need to be done. Definitely going to bring all my business here.”

“Our car wouldn't start during our road trip from New York. We were towed to this wonderful body shop. They are so friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommended to anyone. Quick service and amazing people. Thank you so much!”

“If I could rate this facility higher than five stars I would.

I have been working on cars for 50 years now and for the first 20 years I would not let anyone else even check my oil let alone work on my car. Due to a break down along the highway between Albuquerque and Alamogordo we made it into town with a bad wheel bearing. This was on April 27, 2017.

The shop was very busy but Xavier gave us priority to get our car fixed since we were traveling through. His mechanic was very knowledgeable and did not try to sell us on anything that we did not actually need.

As a contractor I have run my business very much the way Xavier runs his and I appreciate his service. If I were in that area ever again whether it was an emergency repair or not I would not take my car anywhere else. I wish I could get him to move his business to Salem Oregon so I could continue to use his services.”

“I'm new here in Alamogordo and needed to find a good auto repair shop. These guys are hands down the best! And very knowledgeable and super kind and welcoming. They'll tell you if you need a specific maintenance work done or not. I have a 2010 Honda Civic and took it to a Honda dealership auto shop...and they listed all these maintenance that needs to be done and it was $$$$$. So I took it to this place and Xavier "the owner" said I did not need to have any of those maintenance done not for another 30,000-50,000 miles. Overall 5/5 stars and all I needed was a transmission drain and fill.”

“Knowledgeable mechanics, good prices”

“Went here for a last minute oil change while traveling, service was great, very friendly and very fast. The price was great too very reasonable. Definitely recommend.”

“We've been here a few times and I cant say enough about this shop. The customer service is outstanding, their quality of work is excellent, and the jobs are always completed in a timely manner. I highly recommend this auto center for any and every job/maintenance needed for your vehicle.”

“While traveling, no one wants car problems, but when you have an excellent and efficient Alamo Auto Center and Xavier to help you, you are soon on the road again. Thanks!”

“Fair. Honest Professional. Friendly. The best mechanic in town!”

“I am new to Alamogordo. And being new is not always a good thing especially when you got to take your car to the shop for repairs. I am very impressed with the way that my car was handled by a mechanic and the way I was handled by the folks at the service desk. Highly recommend these people to anyone and everyone. Very nice, very courteous, and very very professional,but friendlyAt the same time.Five STARS”

“Absolutely wonderful place to get your car serviced! Xavier recently helped my mom by changing a burned turn signal bulb for free. He runs a great business, and the crew he has is wonderful. Highly recommended! Superb customer service! If you want high quality work, go to Alamo Auto. They will take very good care of you and your vehicle.”

“Incredibly friendly, honest & efficient.”

“4 Stars!”

“Professional, friendly, quick and great service! Got my car fixed within a day even when they were very busy.”

Knowledge
Courtesy.
Price was more than fair
Duration of repair reasonable
Quality of work excellent
Couldnt be happier.”

“Excellent, quick and friendly service! We had such a great experience going to Alamo Auto Center for oil changes for our Nissan and Subaru. The service was quick and we even made some small talk. The owner pointed out some things that we should pay attention to and, unlike other places, he let us decide if we wanted to take care of the potential issues now or later rather than forcing us to get work done now.

I definitely recommend this place and we'll be using their services again soon. :)”

“Went in for a pre buy inspection, received outstanding customer service and support in deciding whether to buy the vehicle. They were honest and very helpful. Definitely recommend to use their expertise before buying a used car. Thanks "X"!”

“I sent my elder Mother to your business for an oil change and preventative maintenance. She was very pleased with how nice and courteous everyone was. She left with peace of mind and a smile because her service was cheaper than you had quoted me on the phone. I'm thankful because I live hours from Alamo and needed someone I could trust my mother with. You all did a good job and I thank you.”

“4 Stars!”

“Exceptional customer service and superb work. I'll certainly take my business with them again whenever my car needs any sort of servicing.”

“I thought I heard noises coming from my engine and they were honest cause it ended up being nothing. They could have made something up but were honest and didn't even charge me for taking the time to look at it! Great customer service!”

“These guys are so fair and honest!! Thank You 😊”

“I had my truck towed to their shop on Wednesday at 5pm. Thursday at 10am it was done. They picked me up at the hotel and I was back on the road again. Very nice and professional people to deal with. Not only fast but very responsible on price. I would highly recommend them and will use them again If I have any truck issues near Alamogordo.”

“I highly recommend Alamo Auto Center based on the experience I had on Monday (11/27/17). On the previous Saturday, while my wife, dog and I were in High Rolls, New Mexico, I detected a coolant leak in our 2008 Jeep Commander. I did some internet research, found Alamo Auto Center in Alamogordo, and left an email message on its website. Thinking I would follow up on Sunday night by leaving a telephone message on the company's voicemail I was surprised when the owner, Xavier, answered. He was in California, but the call transferred to his cell, and he always answers, he said, because "I'm an old-fashioned service provider." I explained my problem: I had a coolant leak and had to have the car repaired on Monday to get back to Las Cruces because my wife had to teach the following morning. Xavier said he would contact the guy managing the shop, Terrell, and explain my situation, and Xavier was true to his word; when I got to the repair shop at 8:00 in the morning Terrell entered my information into his computer, took my key, and had the car inside for an inspection within a few minutes. As I had feared the problem was a faulty water pump, and I just envisioned all kinds of troubles getting a new water pump and having it installed. To my amazement Terrell informed me that they could get the part and have me out of there by 10:45 a.m. He, too, was true to his word. The mechanic, William, worked diligently to complete the work, and after I had paid the bill--which, by the way, was extremely reasonable--I was headed back to High Rolls by 10:45 to pick up my wife and dog for the trip to Las Cruces. If you're in Alamogordo or passing through, and in you're in need of auto repair, Alamo Auto Center is the place to go for quality work by personable, courteous professionals.”

“Great place for repair and oil change. Knowledgeable, reliable and friendly mechanics, they keep you updated on what needs to be done and let you know upfront what to expect. Our favorite repair shop in Alamogordo!”

“Wonderful, knowledgeable mechanics. Will treat everyone fairly.”

“I was driving cross-country and my car overheated in Alamogordo. I was sure I was going to have to replace the radiator or something expensive to get back on the road. These guys saw me right away, ran some tests, and figured out that it was just a bad radiator cap causing the problems. They had me back on the road for next to nothing. Honest and trustworthy guys that know their stuff.”

“Best mechanic I've been to in a long time. Very polite and professional. They do a good job of communicating with you while your car is at their shop. Fair pricing too. Would definitely go back.”

“5 Stars!”

“Super helpful and they were able to get me in immediately!! I’ll definitely be going back!”

“Professions, quick, and reasonable! Absolutely the best place in town to get ANYTHING done on your vehicle. Extremely convenient and they even offer a military discount! Look no further.”

“I have been using Alamo Auto for many years. The service is outstanding and I trust them to do a great job at a reasonable price. My car wouldn't start and they went out of their way to come to my place of work and take a look at it, take it to the shop, and fix the problem within hours. I highly recommend them!”

“The honesty and integrity from not only the staff but the personal commitment to satisfaction I recieved from the owner was phenomenal! After discussing a difficult vehicle issue that was beyond the cost I could afford, the owner and staff continued to explore other options that were within my budget! Even though the end result did not leave me with a drivable vehicle due to my budget restrictions, the dedication and earnestness of the staff has impressed me beyond compare and I would certainly do business with them aging should any future automomotive issues arise. Thank you!”

“I trust my car to Xavier and his staff. Very knowledgeable and experienced management and staff. Clean facility.”

“My driver's side mirror fell off after hitting the side of my garage, so I went to the dealership to order new parts and wanted to charge me an additional $110 to put it on. I came to Alamo Auto Center, and not only did they see me with no appointment, they also did not charge me it all. They put the new mirror completely free! Excellent service!”

“Our car distributor broke down during our road trip from New York. We were towed to this body shop. They are beyond amazing. So friendly and helpful. Quick service, great staff. Probably the best and friendliest body shop I've ever been to. Thank you so much!”

“5 Stars!”

“A a little over a year ago my Subaru Forrester blew a head gasket. Alamo Auto repaired it and all was fine. But this winter we discovered a very small oil leak. They decided it was their fault and covered everything that was entailed in correcting it. Quite a job! My little car runs great again and I hope to have a chance to put lots more miles on it. I'm impressed with how well they guarantee and back up their work. Thank you all!”

“I had put in SO much money trying to fix my air conditioner. I couldn't afford the estimate to find out the last thing that was wrong, and the owner was so kind and compassionate, he helped me through this rough experience, fixed the issue, and is letting me work out a payment plan. It's almost hard to believe that there is a mechanic shop this decent around. I never plan on going anywhere else again. Turns out it was just a loose connection, and Alamo Auto saved me hundreds of dollars, and much time and stress. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!”

“I have had a variety of work performed by Alamo Auto Center for a number of years. I regularly check their work within the confines of my expertise. I recently had concerns about the work performed after looking at the work. Alamo Auto took time to explain that the work performed was different that what I had expected to be performed. I reviewed their work once again and my concerns were alleviated. Thank you once again.”

“Xavier and all the crew are the most honest, helpful, skilled mechanics anywhere around. My car, a 2003 PT, had been running rather sluggish lately and I took it in for a look/see yesterday. Not having the best mechanical vocabulary myself, I tried to describe what the car was doing and "X" new exactly what other questions to ask me to help with the diagnosis. He kept the car (without a scheduled appointment) and called later that day with the diagnosis, the repair costs, and length of time to complete. I picked up the car today at noon ahead of schedule, and it is running like a kitten. They keep excellent computer records of each visit and he can tell exactly when the last work on a particular system was done. One other time when I took it in for a routine oil change, he notice some leakage of transmission fluid. It was diagnosed and fixed by a reputable transmission shop of his recommendation. He even drove it down there (with my permission) to get an estimate on the repair the day he did the oil change. In addition to the transmission issue, he noticed a large split in one of my tires, took pictures of it and showed me when I picked up the car. He knew I drove up and down the mountain quite often and if that tire had blown, I would have been in a mess of trouble. I had the tire replaced immediately and consider that my life was saved because of "X's" vigilance and caring. These folks are top notch!”

“Good honest people, they have worked on two vehicles of mine and did an outstanding job. They don't try to ovresell you or BS you. I dropped off my vehicle, they gave me a ride home and picked me up when it was ready, sooner than they previously predicted also. They guarantee their work and I highly recommend them.”

“Best service, professional staff, saved my day with an electrical issue in my Hyundai Santa.Fe. My window was such a problem for me and Alamo Auto Care was prompt in taking the door off and fixing the problem before the snow and rain arrived. My Heros !!”

“Only place in Alamogordo that you should take your vehicle. They are the best in town. No reason to try anywhere else. Thank you so much for taking care of my truck.”

“Excellent customer service and quick repairs.”

“Honest and dependable service! Mario is one of the best mechanics I've ever seen. He not only took the time to explain the issue with my vehicle but showed me how to fix it. You're treated like a human being here and NOT a dollar sign. I respect the way they handle their business and try not to take you for granted. Thank you Alamo Auto Center!”

“5 Stars!”

“Needed help removing stripped screws that held my license plates. They removed and replaced them as a courtesy. Will definitely return for future work.”

“We were traveling through the area and had an emergency issue with our truck. I called Alamo based on their excellent rating and Xavier told us to bring it right over and he had his mechanic make the repairs within just a few minutes. I wish we had such a reliable mechanic near us in our home in New Hampshire. Thank you Xavier!”

“Great help! We were traveling through Alamogordo and had engine light on. We found Alamo Auto Center and they did the check and solve the problem quickly. Thank you so much!”

“Very kind and helpful, Took their time to diagnose our vehicle and the issue. Even while being 5 minutes to closing they were curtious and concerned about our safety.”

“Used Alamo Auto Center when I was stationed at Holloman AFB from 2011-2012. Took my classic 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL to them many times for various things - ALWAYS outstanding, prompt, and reasonably priced service! If I ever make it back out there, I will be a loyal, returning customer!”

“GREAT service. Extremely knowledgeable mechanic went out of the way to answer all questions, demonstrate what was going on with car, and really show me the moving parts I was asking about. I got a ride promptly back home. They accommodated all my requests and called me to follow up on work. Free wi-fi and coffee in waiting area. I have recommended this place to others already. Thank you guys!”

“We just had to get an oil change and tire rotation while in town and we had the greatest experience! They were so kind and let our dog hang out in the air conditioned waiting room and were just as nice to her as they were to us! Mario told us that there was something loose as a result of the last people that did our oil change and informed us that we had a lugnut missing and replaced it for us. They were genuinely concerned for our safety and didn't just see it as another oil change, and have incredibly reasonable prices- highly recommend supporting these guys!”

“We are so glad to have come across the Alamo auto center a few days ago. My buddy and I are driving across country and we had no idea where to go when we started having car troubles near Alamogordo. We saw that Alamo Auto had great reviews and went to check it out. The reviews were spot on. These guys are welcoming, fair and honest, and a joy to be around. Joseph, Gary, Justin and Xavier all took the time to make us feel welcome and comfortable. They explained the situation with our van thoroughly, answered our questions, and showed us what was going on so we could see for ourselves. Not only did they know what they were talking about, but also helped diagnose our car for no charge and gave us some good advice on where to go from there. If you are ever near Alamogordo and need some car support, these are your guys for sure. Thanks Alamo!”

“I was passing through town and one of my brake pads needed changing imedeitly. I stopped here because a few locals recommend them and I'm very happy that I did. They were quick, professional and very friendly. Wish I had a shop like this back home. One more thing, the waiting room was probably one of the best I been in for an automotive shop.”

“The honesty and integrity from not only the staff but the personal commitment to satisfaction I recieved from the owner was phenomenal! After discussing a difficult vehicle issue that was beyond the cost I could afford, the owner and staff continued to explore other options that were within my budget! Even though the end result did not leave me with a drivable vehicle due to my budget restrictions, the dedication and earnestness of the staff has impressed me beyond compare and I we certainly do business with them aging should any future automomotive issues arise. Thank you!”

“I needed a clutch replacement before Christmas. The expert machanics gave me great information on the whole process and what parts I would need. They found the problem was my clutch master cylinder was leaking. They ordered a new one over night and installed it before closing up for Christmas Eve. They were gracious enough to take me home and bring me back when my car was finished. In the end their expert advice helped me saved nearly $1200 on repairs. It was a pleasure doing business with them.”

“Mario spent at least 30 minutes inspecting my truck and assuring me that all my fluid levels were up to spec before my return trip to Colorado. No Charge! Thank you!”

“On the road for a month and decided an oil change was in order before beginning the 1700 mile leg home. Alamo Auto Center took care of my vehicle in a very professional and timely manner for the quoted price.”

“professional , honest , I travel for a living and the two hardest things to find in a new town are a good doctor and a honest reliable car technician , now all I have left to look for in Alamogordo is a doctor, I couldn't be happier with the crew at Alamo Auto Center , can't recommend them enough , thank you Xavier”

“Xavier and his crew are the most honest car guys around! Had my cars a/c retrofitted and these guys did a GREAT job. 1 year later and the compressor went out...I called them and explained the situation and that is was within days of the warranty expiring. Xavier said he doesn't really worry about that too much and they'd take care of me anyway. Class act that is becoming more and more rare in this day and age. The only ones in Alamo I would trust with my cars. Thanks guys!”

“We were on vacation in the area from Missouri when we had a sudden issue with our fuel pump! Mario was very expedient with determining the problem and getting us in and out quickly! Xavier drove us to the Space Museum while our vehicle was getting fixed. The customer service was outstanding and quality of the work was superb! Teamwork is excellent! I highly recommend them!”

“This place is superb! So many businesses could learn how to operate a business from Alamo Auto Center. They are honest, experts, and very nice people. When a business treats their customers well, and is honest and kind, they get REPEAT business. Why in the world is that concept so hard for so many businesses to grasp??? This place is terrific! Final bill actually came in LOWER than my initial estimate which I have to say, is a first for me! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”

“Mario at Alamo Auto Center was terrific. He explained the problem clearly and gave several strategies for dealing with it. One of the best auto repair experiences I've had anywhere. As an out of towner, I was a bit leery, but would definitely recommend Alamo Auto Center to anyone in the area.”

“5 Stars!”

“Honest and excellent service. I have my vehicles here several times now and I'm always amazed at the honesty and excellent service. I recently took a car in with a problem which stumped them for awhile. Once they found the problem, they determined it was a very easy fix and didn't charge me at all for all the diagnostics they performed! The car is now humming along and i had a very minimal bill.

I will definitely bring my vehicles back Alamo Auto.”

“I brought in my F250 to have them check out the suspension because I was afraid one of my front axle seals was going out. Gary put my truck on the lift and inspected it with a fine tooth comb and found out that everything was in good shape and the seal that I thought was bad was actually just a dust seal and that I could just put in back in myself. He also hooked up the scanner because I had a check engine light on. after going through the codes he found out that it was a simple vacuum leak and he fixed it for me. When I asked them what I owed them he told me nothing, not a dime!!!!
These guys are awesome!!! I recommend them to anyone needing any type of vehicle repair.
Thanks Alamo Auto Center!!!!”

“Xavier went out of his way to go and check out a car for me to see if it was running good. Gave me his honest opinion and I was very thankful.”

“Been using this shop for years now. Everytime something breaks and I don't feel up to messing with it I take it to these guys. Had them do some work about a month ago and got a call from Xavier today saying they accidentally overcharged me $20. He was calling me so I could come pick the $20 up. Thought that was pretty cool they did that. All-in-all a great place.”

“Couldn't have been happier with the service I got. I was in and out quickly. The quality of work this business provides is phenomenal and is only bested by the men who work there”

“Superb Service. Fair prices.”

“They're the best at what they do and are incredibly fair priced.”

“I found my car battery was completely dead. After getting a jump from a friend and going here without an appointment, I was seen and serviced instantly. Changing a battery is not difficult, but the staff talked me through the entire process and showed me exactly what the problem was using their equipment. I was very impressed with their customer service.”

“Great service. I am in Australia, and contacted Xavier and his team to conduct a pre purchase inspection on a classic car. All the information I requested was relayed to me by phone & email, including photo's. Thanks again all the way from the land of Oz.”

“I was given a quote of a approximately $100 to inspect my air conditioning unit in my vehicle. They said they wouldn't charge me for the inspection if I had the work done in their shop. I thought that was reasonable and agreed to do the work. I got the bill for over $500 and was upset. Their next actions determined the very high rating and positive review. I spoke with the owner, explaining the situation. I expected to have to argue, haggle, and compromise the bill down. However the owner was true to his employees word and stunned me with a $75 bill! I was so impressed that I decided to pay them $150 to cover some costs as a thank you for being so honest in their dealings. Take your vehicle here. You will be dealt with VERY friendly and honestly.”

“These guys are great!!”

“I could have not been more pleased with the service and quality the guys put into my whole experience. My father has been a mechanic for 26+ years, and being so far away from home, I had to let someone else fix my Nissan Altima. I was impressed with the shop. Clean, open, and very welcoming. I was greeted as soon as I pulled into the parking lot. Steve came out to check out the problem (I had talked to him prior to bringing my car there) and he assisted me with all the information and even talked to my dad for me so I could make sure I wasn't getting screwed over. The owner (I can't remember his name) was so helpful and personal. He was cracking jokes and keeping up the moral of the office. He gave me a 10% discount to help me out with the price. The prices were right on point with the prices in bigger cities and the shop my dad has worked in. I had a huge job to do so it cost me a pretty penny anyways no matter where I went. There is a typical $10.** charge for shop supplies. I needed my car the next day and Steve called the same day I dropped it off!! He checked my tires, filled up all my fluids, and cleaned my headlights. I am absolutely impressed with this shop and the guys that work there. I met a handful of them when we were cracking jokes. It is the only place I will trust with my car while I am stationed at Holloman!!!”

“Honest, trustworthy, & friendly... Great service. Beena customer for couple years now and won't go anywhere else. I luv these guys!”

“Could not be happier with the service that Alamo Auto Center provided me with today. The whole staff was friendly, knowledgeable and honest. I'm here from out of town and went to the shop with no appointment, but in just an hour they replaced my serpentine belt on the spot for a great price. And they had a very nice waiting area. I asked about my timing belt and they told me it could wait for now, I really appreciated their honesty. If I ever find myself stationed here I would definitely make them my regular mechanics, just wish I had a place like this back where I'm currently stationed.”

“This place is fantastic. I have taken it here for oil changes and basic stuff starting out. Once I needed some work on my car, Xavier and his mechanics have been very good about telling me there is a problem and taking pictures of the problems so that I know for sure that I actually have a problem and that they aren't pulling your leg. I have never felt ripped off here before. They even looked over my car before I went on a long car drive for free to make sure all was good. I highly recommend this place because the service is great and the employees are honest and funny and make you feel like a part of their family.”

“We are so glad to have come across the Alamo auto center a few days ago. My buddy and I are driving across country and we had no idea where to go when we started having car troubles near Alamogordo. We saw that Alamo Auto had great reviews and went to check it out. The reviews were spot on. These guys are welcoming, fair and honest, and a joy to be around.

If you are ever near Alamogordo and need some car support, these are your guys for sure. Thanks Alamo!”

“They took great care of my husband's car! Xavier is very friendly and I couldn't ask for a better experience.”

“Worked with Xavier (The Owner) really just an all around great guy. I take both my wife's and my car to him and haven't had a single bad experience with him yet. His team is knowledgable, friendly, courteous and always willing to help out. I can't say enough about how great he has been to us since we've lived in Alamogordo.”

“Wow, what a great place!!! Can't believe I've been driving my car all the way down to the dealership in El Paso for the past five years! What do you want in a mechanic? 1) expertise 2) honesty -- and truly, this place is top-notch in both! I also throw in 3) kindness because it's my time and my money and I won't stand for being ill-treated. And these guys are experts, honest, and KIND. I just needed a hose and wiper fluid reservoir replaced but becuz my car is specialized, the parts had to be special-ordered. Well the wrong hose came in and so the mechanic wasn't able to use it, but he said once they got to the problem, it was just a standard hose, so that actually saved me some money. Then it took less time to replace the wiper fluid reservoir, so that saved me more money from the estimate. I can't say enough good things about Xavier, Steve, and Mario and the rest of the staff! EXCELLENT AUTO SHOP AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”

“I had called another company to quote battery replacement and got a lower quote on the phone from Alamo. When I arrived, Xavier noted that the priced quoted (by another worker) wasn't inclusive of labor. I informed him I came here because of the lower quote, so he honored the phone quote, politely, not grudgingly. I also needed a mirror (I had the replacement mirror assembly with me) installed, and he quoted a reasonable rate for that. The waiting room was clean and comfortable. Xavier also had his guys check out a problem with a tire and referred me to another excellent tire place in town, Alamo tire. I am an out of towner and feel like I was treated very well and not given a shinedown on prices for services. This shop reminds me of my auto mechanic at home that I've been going to for 20+ years”

“You're in the right place! Honest and skilled and concerned for your safety and we'll being. We were passing through and they worked us in on short notice, fixed our problem, and had us back on our way. Thank you, Alamo Auto Center!”

“We were driving through town and had a gauge go off. The mechanic gave us a free estimate and told us we didn't need service. He was exceptionally kind and helpful, if we need service again in Alamogordo, we're definitely coming back!”

“I have been going here for years. Recently my car was having issues. I took it in for them to diagnose the problem. They weren't sure of the problem, but eventually solved it and fixed it. I went in to pay them, and took it home. The bill seemed high, well Xavier called and told me they had over charged me. I went back and they refunded me the money owed. I was already satisfied with the work. But having someone that's honest is rare these days. If your looking for a honest quality mechanic, bring your car here, you won't be disappointed.”

“The most Wonderful and honest mechanics I have ever come across... They go above and beyond to make sure that my old car is in good shape to drive my babies around... Not only do they take care of your vehicle but they truly care about their customers... Best place I have ever been and I will never go anywhere else... Thanks again for all that you do!!”

“These wonderful amazing people were so good to me. 3 years ago, almost to the day, my engine blew while I was hauling a trailer, heading to be with my son, right after my ❤ went to be with Jesus. They were so kind during one of the most difficult times of my life! They allowed me to leave my truck, as it was, on their property for about 3 months. They were so kind, they didn't even charge me storage! They are godly people,with fantastic hearts . I don't know if I can ever repay their Love and kindness. I highly recommend their service. They explain things about your in language you understand, and they care and make sure you understand. Simply fabulous. I think of them often, and always keep them in my prayers! Blessings to them all, always!”
