Texican Transmissions & Motors

I was visiting El Paso for a week. I found myself dealing with a dead Corolla 2 days before my return trip to Utah. I suspected a starter as the battery voltage was perfect. I was sorta in a pickle.
I picked this business ONLY because he was close to me. Just a shot in the dark. I researched them a little beforehand on the BBB and saw an A+ rating, so I had the car towed there and crossed my fingers.
Well, the owner Johnny called a couple hours after my car was delivered to him, and confirmed yes it was a dead starter. He told me a price, which I later confirmed by phoning a Toyota dealer, was LESS than half of a quote from a dealership in El Paso.
He said it would be done the next day, and even offered to bring the car back to me.
I was able to get a ride there the next day after he called again telling me it was finished and the quoted price was exactly what I paid. LESS than 24 hours and he was done with it!
Johnny was very professional, and very nice.
I may never need a mechanic in El Paso again, but if I do, I won’t go anywhere else.
Overall a very fast and fair deal. He saved my cookies!

First of all, I had never done business with this shop in the past, until about two weeks ago. I am one of those people that dont go to a mechanic that is not recommended, but my transmission was in need of a complicated repair and I knew it had to be some one certified, that way it would be worth spending the money. I went by the reviews the shop has online, everything I could find. I could not find a dispute unresolved. So I went for it, they offered a fair price for the repair, kept me updated. When I went to pick up my SUV, Johnny (the owner) showed me the parts that were replaced. Excellent customer service. After I picked up my SUV, when I came home I noticed a wired noise, I took it back the next day, and Johnny checked it out right away. They replaced the part that needed to be changed with no extra charge. He said so him self «if its something we did, we will take care of it.» and he did just that. Not only that but the warranty I got on my rebuilt transmission is good for one year and valid nation wide, so this was a good investment. So overall, a job well done!

This was the shop I used when I was stationed at Ft. Bliss. John, the owner, is an old school mech that is more interested in fixing the car than just finding crap to fix and charge you for. The prices were always fair and he put our cars back together after crapping out on more than one occasion.
He can save you a buck by doing quick fixes that will keep it going. Or if you are like me, let him know you want the full gambit on a repair. I have told him certain things I wanted done, such as a radiator drain and flush-​if the car did not need it, he would tell me so straight to my face. That saves me money and develops trust. The only downside to this shop is it can get busy and you may have to wait a couple days.
If I ever find myself back in El Paso, hopefully they are still open for business. Hopefully… I just don’t end up back in El Paso though… haha.
