They were great and got a turbocharger replaced in just a couple days after the dealer quoted me a month due to backordered parts. It runs great and it's good to be back on the road! My advisor, Chase was super friendly and they did some extra inspections to let me know what things might need attention in the near future. Thanks and I'll be back!

I've been in and around the retail car business for over 40 years. I've had a lot of experience with auto repair shops, both at auto dealerships and independent shops. I have personally used Sallas Auto Repair for about 15 years. My adult children use their services and I have referred dozens of friends and business associates over the years. If you're looking for a reputable auto repair shop.you've found it!

Chase was my service writer and kept me informed on how my F150 repairs were progressing. I had extensive work done from rear seal problems to ball joints and 4 wheel drive adjustments. I am very happy with the service performed and their eagerness to make sure I was satisfied. Everyone there was polite and helpful. I really enjoyed working with Chase!

Great place to take your car, I've been using Sallas for years. Had steering problems with my Malibu. Drop it off in the morning and it was done that afternoon. Big shout out to the tech who fixed it and Paul Wobbe for keeping me informed of the progress. Great Job guys. Services: Electrical repair, Steering & suspension repair

The guys at Sallas were great in helping us figure out an annoying noise on our Toyota Camry. Not only did they fix the noise they also performed a quick inspection and pointed out a few other needs on the vehicle. Great service and honest information. Highly recommend.

Y'ALL! i never leave reviews, but boy does this shop deserve a good one. after being the unfortunate owner of a lemon and getting in a few wrecks i am AFRAID of driving so i have a hard time finding mechanics i trust to not only do the repairs right, but to also be honest with me about the condition of my car. sallas auto repair has gone so far above and beyond my expectations already without even having to be asked! completed the repairs i brought it in for, went through a very detailed list of my cars overall health with me, and helped me make a plan for the rest of the repairs with safety being the main focus for what should be repaired when and etc. from now on, i wont go anywhere else. cannot recommend them enough!
