I took my new to me truck here from recommendations, I'm glad I did. Had a rear main seal leak and coolant leak on a 4x4 Ford f150. The mechanic did an outstanding job. My truck is no longer leaking, the driveway is clean and she's running great. I would not hesitate to recommend this shop.

I recently had some pretty extensive work done to a vehicle of mine at this establishment. I had heard good things about the work that they do and that they were reasonably priced. I made a good choice. They were excellent.Had my car for a few days and kept me updated the whole time. I was quoted with a more than fair price for all the work I needed done. The customer service was great too. Just an all around excellent, small town repair shop. I would highly recommend this establishment.

My car's alternator died on a Friday night - had it towed to Lockhart Auto Care. Slept in the car until morning. Bam, the store manager, said he would try his best to have the alternator replaced same day, since I was 80 miles from home.Well, Bam and his crew pulled it off and I was back on the road by noon! Price was reasonable, service was excellent. I recommend 100%.

100% hands down the most painless mechanic experience I ve had in the last decade! Best I ve had in Florida. The service was fast. They informed me every step of the way until my vehicle was back in my hands. Oh and the pricing was amazing too. If you re in highlands county and need service done to your vehicle run don t walk to Lockhart.

Purchased a vehicle from this company for 10,700 not even a week later two leaks exposed themselves. I addressed the wetness and gunk build up prior to purchase and I was informed that the vehicle was repaired correctly. This was in fact not the case. The water pump gasket leak was repaired with RTV silicone. The coolant reservoir. Was filled with water before I arrived. As well as the power steering with ATF fluid. Very shady business I ve called several times they refuse to speak to me and I quote you bought a used vehicle what do you expect they offer no attempt for resolving. I bought this vehicle 6 days ago!! I have yet to hear from the owner William. I m very disgusted with how they do business. Be very cautious they are the definition of sleezy car dealer.

My car wouldn t start after a cross country trip hauling a trailer. I feared the engine had been damaged. On Monday morning I called Lockhart Auto repair to help. They contacted Jason towing and had my car in the shop within an hour. Within another hour they diagnosed my problem as a bad battery which surprised me because my car would light up when I tried to start it but it would not turn over the engine. After everything, I had my car back that afternoon. I thought I was going to spend thousands on engine repair but it only cost me a tow, a new battery and labor. I definitely recommend them.Service: General repairs & maintenance

I had to give it a1 star to leave a review or I would have given it a big fat 0. Talk about unprofessional. I was told first thing this morning they would have my car fixed by the end of business today however at 400 pm not only was it not done they didn't even have the part.

They were friendly and listened to my car concerns. But suggested I take my car to the dealership. As they felt it was out of their ability. I appreciate them not giving me the run around and being direct that I should in fact take it to the dealership for a proper diagnosis.

Always a pleasure. Honest and reliable, from patching tires to major repairs. The only shop in LP that I will go to.

Heard a noise from under the truck's hood the day before leaving for 2 days of interstate travel. A friend recommended Lockhart. They took a listen and said to bring the truck back after their lunch and they would diagnose and fix it. Turns out it was a water pump going bad- which would have stranded us on the interstate. They fixed it that day so we did not have to delay our trip. Bam, Kathy, and everyone else were so helpful. Will be back if we need any other automotive services when we are in the area.

Saw a lot of reviews about this Bam person. Well, let me just say, this guy is the real deal! Thought I was facing a $1000+ repair bill, Bam found that the problem was totally unrelated and fixed it in just ten minutes!To the owners, do not lose this employee. People like this CAN NOT be replaced! Anytime I have an issue with one of my vehicles in the future, I'm bringing it to Bam at Lockhart Auto.Thank you Bam!

Some of the best customer service I ve ever had! One of the associates, Bam, fixed our brakes; they were having problems. He showed me what was going wrong and fixed it in a timely manner. He was very friendly. Car works great now! The place has a small town feel to it; they care about their customers. It s very refreshing.Service: BrakesService: Brakes

The men were very professional and knowledgeable. Everyone was kind and helped my husband and I quickly so we were able to get back on the road at a very reasonable price. We will definitely be coming back for our car care. Thank you.

Never got a call from them about a quote or even that it was ready. They replaced the starter but days later it had the same issue. Took it back, Charged me for their labor but did nothing and could not tell me why it wouldn t start. Learned not take my truck back there.Update: the guys at jiffy lube found that I had a bad terminal connection and fixed it. Wish I d gotten an oil change instead of turning to mechanics. So it goes

Looking for a trustworthy, thorough, reliable, fully functional automotive service center & mechanic shop?! Need service on warranties such as tire adjustments, rotate & balance? Oil changed & fluid level checked, part replacements, or even engine maintenance & repair are a few things up Lockhart's alley!

I just drove up, they asked what was wrong. I told them I had a tire with a leak. They took me right away and in no time I was back on the road. Excellent service and a good price for the fix. I will definitely go back there again.

I have been a customer of Lockhart's for 12 years. I have grown to know the mechanics and even though Doug, the owner is normally grumpy, I liked him. Recently, I took my pickup in for an oil change. Doug wasn't there when I arrived and one of his senior mechanics assigned the work to a new employee that I had never seen before. I normally stand at the service desk and watch the work because it interests me. I noticed that the new employee didn't seem familiar with Ford trucks and required instruction from the other mechanics. When the work was finished he brought the truck around front for me to take home. He wiped the door handle and steering wheel off with a very oily rag. As I mentioned Doug was not there so I cleaned off the oil myself and went home. When I parked in the driveway at home, I noticed that a panel under the engine was hanging down nearly to the ground. It was in danger of being ripped off. I called the shop. By this time, Doug had arrived and I was able to talk to him. I started to explain the problem to him and half way thru, the call was dropped. I called back and Doug told me to bring the truck back in. When I arrived and before I could even begin to talk, Doug ripped into me and told me that I had disrespected him and that I should get out of his shop and never come back. Needless to say, that is exactly what I did. Other than the dropped call, I have no idea what set him off but he doesn't need to be in a business that serves the public.Service: Oil change

We broke down on hwy 70 with our camper. We had our vehicle towed to Lockhart. They worked on it right away and had it done before closing. They went above and beyond when they brought their personal truck out to tow our trailer and give us and our dogs a ride to their shop to get our vehicle. I highly recommend them.

Always great service and fair pricing. My family's choice, and it is nice to have the shop in our town. Doug has been our go to spot for over 15 years.

My Ford Explorer needed a ABS tune ring on the left rear axle... first they replaced the ABS sensor which I didn't need for $135.00 then they told me I needed to replace my axle $275.00 + $250.00 labor for a new tune ring.....Ford sells the part for $36.00 and installs it for $172.00 not the $500.00 Lockhart quoted. Had the work done by Ford.....These guys are clueless when it comes to repairing anything!!!!! Tune rings are a very common problem with 2006 - 2010 Ford Explorers rear axles a competent mechanic would have known this...stay far away from these guys unless you want to pay for their education.

Very honest and friendly! Didn't try to over charge me or get me to buy something that my car didn't need. Will always return here.

Took my car in to have power steering pump replaced charged me 550 and when I got the car back the power steering fluid leaked even worse took it back and they admitted to using same gaskets. Told them they fix it for free or I'd be sueing and was replaced but not the best work... I do not recommend them...

My Doug and his crew, led by Bam, do a great job! They service my companies fleet! We appreciate the fast service, getting our trucks back on the road as soon as possible!

Unfortunately we were ripped off 2 times. The owner seems to be a nice guy but they charged us for work that was never gone. Parts that were never put on the car. Take our advise don t go here.
