“Brought in a recently purchased BMW X3 to this AMAZING team to get a full run down of the vehicle. I cannot express it enough when I say they went above and beyond. Chris who inspected and worked on the vehicle was very educated on BMW’s and it being my first I had no knowledge of the car whatsoever. He walked me step by step through the physical inspection and pointed out what was wrong as well as gave me an explanation as to why the parts needed to be replaced. (Which is rare with any automotive garage) then proceeded to check the codes while I was with him that way I could see for myself... so once we found the issues he didn’t insist on me making any extra BS repairs that weren’t needed at the time. So from this point we proceeded with the repair. Which was at an amazing price for the work done. I left my vehicle in his hands and he took the time to sent me images as he repaired the vehicle. He had everything wrapped up within a day as promised as well as went back over the repairs and showed me first hand. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else in Dallas! THANK YOU E1AUTO CARE!!”

“This shop does awesome work. Great alternative to taking your vehicle here instead of the dealership. I own a Audi A4 and a A6 and these guys always do quality work at a affordable price. The customer service is excellent and they take the time to know their customers on a first name basis.”

“I get amazing service every time I come here with my Mercedes. The staff is so helpful, open, and honest about the work they are doing, and I am never stuck waiting all day for my car.”
Repairs and services we do with parts we supply are covered for 12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever comes first, on parts and labor. Oil changes, inspections and other basic upkeep aren't covered. If something we fixed isn't right, bring it back.
