Pro Express

Traveling from Ohio and started to hear brakes grinding. Checked Unilocal and found this place with 20some reviews and 5 stars so we gave them a shot.
Expecting a $ 500 plus bill for brakes and rotors, especially with the horror stories of out of town people getting taken advantage of by repair shops.
Well… to our suprise they found a bolt on the brake caliper had fallen out and another was getting ready. $ 47 and an hour later we were on the road.
Highly recommended service!!!

Chalk up another win for the Unilocal community!
After our starter broke down, we decided to look around for an alternative mechanic. We weren’t unhappy with our old one, but it was the only place we had tried and we wanted a second option.
After seeing the numerous glowing reviews, we decided to give Pro Express a try. I’m glad that we did!
They were able to see us same day (versus making an appointment for 2 – 4 days later in the week), which was really nice.
The initial price quote was 200 $ over what our regular place had estimated (granted this was without the regular shopping actually seeing under the hood), but with factory parts. That said, they did offer the option of supplying the starter myself, and even offered to loan me a car to go to the store to get it. I never felt pressured either way, and ended up going for the more expensive part for peace of mind. I appreciated that they had a casual, matter of fact manner without being pushy or know it all. I’m the first to admit I know nothing of cars beyond what I google, but they never talked down to me.
They also were kind enough to look at a couple other small issues they didn’t specialize in, but gave me good references for taking care of them.
Herman, the owner, gave me a ride back to my house while I waited for it to be repaired (they said it’d be done in about 4 hours).
3 hours later, I get a phone call letting me know they were done, and the wife and I swung by (they offered to come pick me up but we were already on the road).
To my pleasant surprise the final bill was 110 $ less than quoted. Early, cheaper, and good work done? Consider me a valued and loyal customer!
Thanks very much Herman and Co. for the great service.

I was so happy to have fast, honest friendly service. They got me fixed up same day I brought it in. I had a severe safety issue with my brakes, control arm & ball joint. I felt safe after I left. They showed me the parts & explained the way they should be working. They found a lifetime customer in me. I’ll be back! Thanks again guys!

These guys have consistently offered amazing advice and great service. I based my first visit off of Unilocal reviews and haven’t gone anywhere else since. These guys are kind of blunt but also very honest. Don’t expect them to try and up sell you on a slightly dirty cabin air filter like the other guys! I don’t know much about cars and they have walked me through every issue I have had and offered great advice even if it meant them losing a service job!

Friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. They were very accommodating to my work schedule. The price was affordable aswell.

It’s tough to find a mechanic when you’re starting from scratch.
Based on the Unilocal reviews I tried these guys and they are awesome.
I had the front wheel bearings and CV joints replaced on my 2003 Subaru Baja and it’s working like new.
the know what they are doing and are just great. I could not be happier and anything else I need done where I can’t do it myself, i’m coming back here!

My car made a horrible and sustained noise as I was approaching OKC at night. The noise went away but I still wanted to get it checked out. I look on Unilocal and decided to go to Pro Express and the mechanic there test drove my car and could not recreate the noise. He hooked up his diagnostic computer and checked and could not find the problem. After a conversation with me, he calmed my fears and sent me on my way without charging me. The noise never came back and I felt better for his professional and friendly consultation. The fact that he did not charge me was nice, although I think I should have paid him something for his time. The waiting room is comfortable but not fancy.

I had a 4 wheel drive truck that needed some end work done. I called a few shops around the city and found these guys. I have previous knowledge of vehicle maintenance from my earlier years and was appreciative of their approach to inform me what exactly had caused the failure. These guys are spot on and honest. On top of the fact, I like to support local mom and pop businesses. If your looking for an automotive repair business with integrity, this is it. Keep up the good work guys, you have a customer for life.

I went here based on the other Unilocal reviews – as a younger looking girl, it’s important to me that I go to a mechanic I can trust.
They were very polite, kind, and quick to get to my vehicle. The let me know the exact price before they began the work– and it was more than fair.
It’s a small establishment and it’s not the most beautiful place either, but that’s not nearly as important to me as trustworthiness.
I will definitely trust them to work on my vehicles in the future. Recommended. (As other reviewers said, there is no bathroom for females, so plan ahead.)

I honestly can’t speak highly enough of Herman and the boys at Pro Express! The tie rods and ball joints on my car broke the night before I brought it in, and when I called to see if they could look at my car the next day, Herman was not only excited to help me, he asked my name and even suggested a tow truck service for me to use! When I got the car there I was greeted with a friendly hello and a handshake, and he reassured me that he would take a look and make sure everything was safe before he let me drive away. I didn’t have an appointment, but they got me in with no hassle and 4 – 5 hours later my car was ready! The bill was about what I was expecting, topping out at ~$ 600, but I feel that it was a fair, if not competitively low, price to pay for all of the work that I did. When I went in to pay, they even told me what I needed to have done to my car as soon as possible. These guys really make you feel like they’re looking out for you and that they have your best interest at heart, and after my incredible experience today, I believe it!

I had a problem with my 2001 Jeep grand Cherokee. They asked me to come to their shop even though it was 15 mins before normal closing time. After 30 mins it was determined that I had some «bad» gas (bought at QT!) and was recommended to use hi grade for 2 or 3 fillups.
No engine codes were found.
Excellent service — friendly mechanics who know their stuff!

I have finally found an auto repair shop that I trust implicitly. I have brought it in for mostly small things, and was always charged what I thought was a very fair (okay, cheap!) price for repairs; sometimes they just told me what was wrong, told me what part to buy at an auto parts store, and I did it myself for just the cost of the part. When my daughter’s air conditioner went out, she checked at her regular repair shop, and they quoted a price that sounded awfully high. I told her to take it to Herman at Pro Express — he replaced her compressor at LESS THAN HALF the quote at the other place (**cough** Christian Brothers **cough**). She will go no where else now. They will also take you home and pick you up if you have to wait a while – the only negative about this place is that they have no womens’ rest room.

THANKS Unilocal! BEST THING I HAVE FOUND ON Unilocal-​OKC.
It is very difficult, but also important to find GOOD, HONEST, and FAIRLY PRICED mechanics! These guys are SUPER LEGIT. Just awesome, friendly, good hearted people.
I came in for a 60K mile service on my Subaru Impreza. This place is run by 2 awesome gentlemen: The owner (who is also an experienced mechanic) and the main mechanic. The main mechanic does all the work and this guy straight up ROCKS. He knows his stuff and he loves cars. I talked with him for awhile and I felt like I knew him my entire life. These guys will treat your car like it is their own.
After fixing a variety of things such as the air filters, belts, oil change, spark plugs, and other things, the mechanic called me up after a couple of hours and showed me all of the things that he replaced and the shape they were in. It is good to know that these guys aren’t afraid to show you everything they changed. Also after the oil change, the mechanic said «this synthetic oil is good for 8,000 miles».
MOST DISHONEST MECHANICS (MOST LIKELY YOUR DEALERSHIPS AS WELL) WILL TELL YOU TO COME BACK FOR AN OIL CHANGE AFTER 3,000 MILES (which is a total lie). THEY JUST WANT YOU COMING BACK FOR THEIR PROFITS.
These guys are the REAL DEAL. I was so impressed that I brought our Subaru Forester for a maintenance/​oil change right after.
These guys are my main and only mechanics I will go to in OKC. Thanks Unilocal-​OKC! You guys got this one right!

Pro Express is a hidden gem. My car was in need of minor repairs, and based on Unilocal reviews and the fact they are 3 blocks from me, I chose to go to Pro Express. I dealt with Richard and he took good care of my car. These days it seems even minor repairs cost an arm and a leg, but not at Pro Express. Price was not only reasonable, but was also really close to what Richard estimated. If you need a mechanic, go to Pro Express!

I was way overdue for an oil change and needed one ASAP. Thanks to these super helpful Unilocal reviews (especially Carly N.‘s), I chose Pro Express. Just as my fellow Unilocalers wrote, Herman was professional, courteous, and flexible. I called Herman on Wednesday and got an appointment for the very next day. He offered to drop me off at work and then drive my car back to the shop if I didn’t want to wait at the shop or have a ride to work. I took him up on the offer, which made the chore a whole less of a chore.
While my car was at the shop, the mechanics (Herman and 2 other mechanics work there) also checked the tire pressure and pumped the tires. (I recognize that these services generally come routine with an oil change, but I really appreciate not having to do them myself.)
When I came to pick up my car, the mechanic told me that I didn’t need to change my oil for 6,000 miles or so. The Subaru dealership always told me 3,000 miles for non-​synthetic and 5,000 miles for synthetic. This makes me think that Pro Express is honest since they obviously benefit if I change my oil more frequently. I paid $ 40 for non-​synthetic oil, which seems reasonable given the price of 5 quarts of Valvoline on Amazon. If you bring your own oil and filter, the service fee is $ 25.
I will surely be back the next time I need an oil change or repairs.

I don’t handle things out of my control well, so when my battery died late Sunday night, I was less than thrilled with the situation. Through no actual hard labor of my own, a new battery was procured and replaced in my car, but the connectors to the battery were so corroded that a tight seal was not a possibility.
Enter Pro Express. I called first thing Monday morning and they told me to come in. I dropped the car off, mentioning that my headlight was also out, and Herman drove me to work. Less than four hours later, I got a call that my car was completely finished and ready for pickup — and for a price that made me cry because it was so LOW.
Herman picked me up from work and let me talk his ear off about the litany of other problems I had with my vehicle. He told me to get a complete list together and come back in for a free checkover/​diagnosis. «You’re dealing with honesty here, sweetheart,» he said — and it’s true. There’s nothing but a genuine desire to help his customers, whom he called «fantastic» several times during the ride.
I’m going back here anytime I need car help. Which, with a car at 145,000 miles … might be pretty soon.

I moved to Oklahoma City from out of state and noticed that my 04 suburban was making some weird noises. A friend at work recommended I take it to Herman. As I was pulling in and gettiong out of the car I heard Herman say to Bill, «You hear those U-​Joints?»
After a quick check under the car Bill confirmed that both the front and rear universal joints were bad. They asked if I could come back the next day and drop the car off. Herman gave me a ride to work and called me later in the morning to ask when I’d had the brakes checked last. I told him I wasn’t sure. The cost of the U-​joint replacement and brake job was less than I would have spent on a single service in Houston and it was done by 2 pm and ready to go. Herman is the best and both he and the guys in the shop know their cars backwards and forwards. I’ve been back for a few other services because my car has 160,000 miles on it, but each time they’ve been fast, fair and very very kind to me. I won’t take my car anywhere else.

I was very impressed with this place. They did a fantastic job on my car when it was overheating, and I paid way less than I thought it would cost. I highly recommend to bring your vehicle here if you have car trouble. A1 service!

I found Pro Express on Unilocal and have to say that the reviews were spot on! My 04 Expedition was not running well at all and I called Herman, who told me to bring it in and he’d take a look… at no charge. I liked the sound of that! We took it over and left it for them to look at. Richard looked it over and called with an estimate we could live with! They did tell me if I wanted to get the parts myself I could probably save about $ 100 but we opted to have them do it all. They had my car ready before they closed that day and even fixed a thing or two at no extra charge. While waiting on them to call I did do some internet research on estimated costs of such repairs and I feel like I was treated BEYOND fairly! I hope I don’t need them anytime soon but if I do I know I’ll use Pro Express again! Thanks Herman and Richard!

I took my Honda Civic in for a new motor mount at around 5:45 pm. One of the mechanics, Bill, was able to quickly diagnose the problem and it turned out three of my motor mounts where bad. I know enough about cars to know Bill was shooting me straight.
They called around for parts and were able to start working on it around 10 am the next day with a quote for $ 645 for all three mounts. They had the job done around 3:30 pm that day. It turns out one of the mounts was slightly higher in price (due to only being available from the dealership) and my new total was $ 700.
I went to pick up the car and met with the owner, Herman, who showed me my worn out motor mounts and was very friendly. In fact, Herman knew my name and remembered it which is always good customer service. Herman handed me the keys and said they had it all cleaned up and ready to go. To my surprise the car was fully washed and detailed — which was impressive because it was pretty filthy when I dropped it off. Turns out any customer spending more than $ 500 gets a full wash and detail.
I drove away with my car running great and looking good. I was very happy with my experience and will definitely call Herman for all my future repairs.

This place is a great example of ‘don’t judge a book by its cover.’ From the outside it looks like a questionable place to take your car for repairs but I am so glad that I decided to go here after reading Carly’s review and since it was fairly close to my house. I called Pro Express around 3 pm and told them that I thought something was wrong with my power steering. Herman, the owner, told me I could bring it in at 8 am the next morning. I arrived at 7:50 am and was getting worried around 7:57 am that no one was going to show up at (because I’m a jerk) but he pulled up right at 8:00 am. He asked that I stay for a minute so he could look under the hood quickly before I left. He then decided that he didn’t think it would be a simple fix so we told me he would call me later on in the day. He got back with me just a couple hours later and told me that the power steering pump was out and that it would cost $ 521. I told him to fix it but he called me back an hour later and told me that no one in the state had the pump I needed and he had to order the part but that it would arrive (hopefully) the following day (Friday) or Monday. He ended up calling me mid-​morning Friday to let me know that my car was ready to be picked up and that he was going to charge me around $ 480 instead.
This man was seriously the sweetest human I have had the pleasure of being in the presence of in a long time. I was concerned that I wasn’t going to be able to get to my car by 5 pm so I called him and his response was «sweetheart, you don’t have to worry about a thing. I will wait for you to get here.» I arrived, paid, got in my car and drove off and my car has been running perfectly ever since. I would absolutely recommend Herman to anyone and will most definitely be returning to him for all future repairs.

I was refered to Herman, the owner, at Pro Express by a couple of co-​workers. They get all major car repairs done here and have always been satisfied. I went here once to get an oil change which is between $ 35 – 40.
The second time I came here was for a major repair. After Precision Tune Auto Care in Edmond failed to diagnose the problem, I brought my car to Pro Express. Triple A towed my car here on a Saturday morning and the mechanics were able to get a new starter and battery put in my car within a few hours. I didn’t have an appointment or anything, just showed up.
Precision Tune Auto Care had put in a battery that was too small for my car and charged me $ 160 for it. Pro Express put in a bigger and correct sized battery for $ 40 less. I’ve had absolutely no problems. My co-​workers assured me I’d be treated right by Herman and I would have to agree. A good mechanic will get it right the first time so you don’t have to waste more time by having to return. A good mechanic won’t try to screw you over either.
One hot summer day, my air conditioner stopped working and Pro Express was able to find the problem. It was an easy fix and they didn’t even charge me for it! Herman even gave me a ride to work while they worked on my car.
Pro Express is a very run down building and there’s barely a waiting room. There was only an old couch and no air conditioning. There’s not even a women’s restroom. One of the mechanics had to take a female customer to Braum’s to use their facility. I couldn’t care less about all that because car troubles are stressful and finding an honest mechanic is just as hard. I’ll be coming here for all major repairs in the future.
