The shop
A shop that has stayed honest for 28 years.
Miguel Ibarra opened The Star Auto Service in 1998 with one rule: never recommend a repair the car doesn't need. That rule has outlasted every shortcut, every chain shop down the road, and every easy excuse to cut corners.
What started as a small family-owned bay on Belt Line Road has grown into one of Richardson's most trusted auto repair facilities. ASE-Certified technicians. NAPA Auto Care nationwide warranty. Service in English or Spanish, whichever you're more comfortable with.
And the answer to “do I really need this?” is always given straight.
