They told me exactly how long the wait would be, offered me a free shuttle service home and back while my car was being worked on, and helped me figure out the issue! Super affordable and great service, It’s hard to find a good mechanic so I’m glad to have found them!

1st time coming here. I had a great experience despite my car issues. James and Nick were super helpful explained in detail what was needed and why.They were able to get repairs done same dayand made it as accommodating as possible for my 2 year old (play a movie on Disney+ for him.)I loved the follow up report via text (multipoint inspection with photos).Thank you all for the suburb customer service.

I Called first thing in the morning at 7:00 am to see if they could replace a headlight on my husband’s SUV before 8:00 am (when he had to leave for work). They said they didn’t know if they had the part unless I came in. If they had it, it would only take like 5 mins to replace. So I rushed up there to see if they did. Unfortunately they did not have it, but their supplier was just 1.5 miles away and got it to us in 20 mins. All together with bringing it in and waiting for the part and the installation, it was only 40 mins and I was able to get my husband’s car back to him before he had to leave for work. This was impressive as they could have told me to go somewhere else. It wasn’t an expensive job but they really valued my time and that’s why I am giving them a 5 star rating. Thank you so much and I will definitely return for more regular maintenance going forward.

The staff was very friendly , professional and very knowledgeable. Communication via text keeps you up to date on the repair progress and it’s an added bonus that they arrange transport to and from their repair facility. A follow up courtesy call to make sure everything was running fine was also a nice touch.This level of service does come at a high price though, costing me $662.77 to “Remove and Replace Engine Coolant Thermostat”, which is on the high side of the repair range according to a google search of 2024 repair costs. In fairness, that cost included a $180 mandatory “Testing and Inspection” cost. In addition, there are no discounts for senior citizens but they do offer a military discount.Although I would probably have spent the same taking it to a dealership, it was definitely more convenient working with FT&A-Cinco Ranch. Were it not for the cost I would have given them five stars.

I brought my truck in for service this morning with an uncertainty of what service I would need for the headlights. They were able to diagnose the issue promptly while also identifying a couple other potential issues (one of which was warrantied from work I had done here two years ago). They completed the work today. Good guys to do business with. No pressuring to get additional work done even after they complete their inspection for anything that might need to be done.

First Tire & Automotive keeps our older cars running (2011 Subaru Outback & 2014 Toyota Tundra). They give us the information to decide what to fix and when. No pressure to “do it all” at once. Their work is guaranteed for 2 years - and they honor this!

I’ve been using First Tire & Auto in Katy for several years. They are always kind, honest, and reasonable. Recently my car had to be towed to a dealership and I called First Tire to see if they would be able to get a part in faster. They weren’t, but the did suggest we request the dealership to take other steps first before ordering a VERY expensive part, even though it wouldn’t benefit First Tire. I’ll be a lifetime customer after that!
