Great service. Showed up about an hour before close and they still found time to give my car the full state inspection, in about 20 minutes. Very friendly staff!

They did a fantastic job. They could have gotten the 2 tail pipes a bit more even with one another, but it's pretty hard to tell. They could be better when it comes to answering the phone.Again, those are minor things. The job they did made my whole year and I highly recommend them.

I was 70 miles from home and about broke! I needed my carrier bearing rechecked and to make sure she was OKAY to drive home. I explained to Andrew what was going on and he said to hurry on over ... I got there about 15 minutes to 5 o'clock. He checked underneath, said my new carrier bearing was all tight, he test drove her and said possibly a wheel bearing but she was OKAY to drive home and to get to my mechanic shop... He didn't charge me a penny!!! And he was right on the money, my wheel bearing had gone BAD!!! I recommend Fred's Auto and Andrew to anyone in the Kaufman area!!!!!

I have dealt with a lot of auto mechanic shops in my lifetime. But, I have to say hands down.. This is the most reliable, efficient, dependable all-around best shop that I have ever come across. I am new to Kaufman, and if you're not taking your vehicles to them. You should be. I want to thank Andrew and Carey so so much!!! You will definitely have my business from now on!!!

Matt @ Fred s Muffler & Automotive was highly recommended to me for exhaust work. I have 3 stainless steel exhaust on my Mustang GT and had an exhaust leak. He made professional recommendations and had the problems resolved quickly. He takes great pride in his work and is very detail oriented. I highly recommend this shop for your exhaust work.

I've had my dealing with shops, however waiting almost 2 months for brakes is ridiculous. They "fixed" my vehicle 4 times. Recommend anywhere but Fred's automotive.

I hit a big chunk of retread tire rubber on Saturday while coming home from Alabama. Drive 350 miles with a lot of noise. I took it to Fred's this morning. They took me right in, put my Ridgeline up on a lift, found a loose piece of sheet metal, put a pin in that. Noise was coming from a bracket that was pushed into the driveshaft. They bent that back and that resolved the problem. Since they had it on the lift I had them do an Oil change. They did not charge me for my problem with the noise. So these guys were awesome. 2 people I know recommended Fred's to me and I see why. I will definitely use them in the future.Service: Steering & suspension repair

Andrew & Sheila always provide great service. They're willing to help any way they can. I've been referred to get parts elsewhere to save $, and have always felt they had my best interest in mind. We will continue to bring all of our vehicles to Fred's.Services: Exhaust, Steering & suspension repair, General repairs & maintenance, Electrical, Auto engine diagnostic, Engine repair, Wheel alignment, Brakes, Oil changeServices: Exhaust, Steering & suspension repair, General repairs & maintenance, Electrical, Auto engine diagnostic, Engine repair, Wheel alignment, Brakes, Oil change

I cannot say enough positive things about my first experience with Fred's Muffler & Automotive. My catalytic converter had to be replaced and they ran into several issues. The repair took much longer than expected but the guys got it done at a very reasonable price. I'm impressed with the service received. This will be our new mechanic. Kind, friendly, honest, great work and fair pricing. Thank you for your excellent service.

These guys are awesome! Just noticed this morning I had belt showing on a tire and it was wearing weird on the outside. Got new tires and called for an assignment at 8:30am. They got me in and totally taken care of within an hour time, car drives better than when I bought it (used) over the summer. Can't say enough good things about everyone here!

We've been taking our vehicles to Fred's for about a year now. I can't say enough good things about this place. No matter how busy and chaotic the day is they always try to squeeze us in. They are HONEST first and foremost and FRIENDLY. That combination is rare, especially in the mechanic world. I see some reviews complaining about pricing, I have no complaints about their prices. Here's what I know, good doesn't come cheap and cheap doesn't come good, and you always get what you pay for. It is not cheap to run a mechanic shop and make profit. They have to pay their bills and their employees and be able to support their own household. If it was easy there'd be a mechanic shop on every corner. For me Fred's is my mechanic shop hands down. I would like to also say this is an honest review. I have not been paid in any way for my opinion. I do not know the owners on a personal level I only know them from taking my vehicles there from the past year. Lastly thank you to all who work at Fred's for keeping me on the road.
