Claim This BusinessFirst Choice Auto Repair opened its doors in Keller roughly a decade ago and has built a loyal following in the northeast Tarrant County corridor. The shop holds ASE certification for its mechanics and maintains a 4.9-star average across 238 client reviews, a rare concentration of favorable feedback for any independent garage. While the primary service zone centers on Keller and neighboring Haslet, the team regularly handles vehicles from Alliance Airport industrial clients and families in adjacent Roanoke and Argyle. The licensed staff works on domestic and import sedans, light trucks, and diesel-powered rigs alike.
What separates First Choice Auto Repair from dealership service departments is their willingness to honor extended warranties regardless of where a vehicle was purchased. This policy alone saves customers hundreds compared to franchise shops that insist on factory-authorized repairs. The garage also performs hot rod restorations and custom motor builds, specialties that most chain quick-lube operations cannot touch. They handle routine maintenance alongside major overhauls, with transparent pricing communicated before any disassembly begins.
Multiple reviewers reference Greg by name, noting he answered calls during working hours and explained repair options without pressuring upsells. One customer arrived with a Mercedes-Benz cigarette lighter fault that the dealership quoted $125 to repair; Greg resolved it for the cost of a tip. Another described dropping off a vehicle with an illuminated check engine light at 9:30 a.m. and receiving a call by early afternoon with asimple fix at a reasonable price. The shop tackled a stubborn suspension complaint plus additional undisclosed issues without padding the final bill.
Six of six sampled reviewers awarded five-star ratings, with two explicitly contrasting First Choice Auto Repair against dealerships and chain shops that overcharged or discovered issues purely for profit. Reviewers consistently praised transparent communication and fair billing, the opposite pattern from common complaints about independent mechanics in general.
