If it rolls, we work on it — daily drivers, work trucks, and the old iron you won't trust to anyone else.
Conventional, high-mileage, and full-synthetic oil changes — free multi-point inspection included with every one: fluids, filters, brakes, and tire pressure.
Pads, rotors, and brake fluid for cars, trucks, and SUVs. Stopping power you can bet on.
R134A and R1234YF recharge and repair — built for Texas summers. And the A/C check? Free.
Repair and full replacement, plus differentials and transfer cases.
$80 check-engine diagnostic with a written repair estimate — waived when you approve the repair. No guesswork, no games.
Factory scheduled maintenance without the dealership — done right, priced fair, and it won't void your warranty.
Posted on the wall in the shop. Posted here too. That's how honest pricing works.
Prices before tax and subject to change — and priced to be some of the most competitive in Denton. Call or text for a current quote.
Levi Peterson got into this trade the honest way: he bought the cheapest car he could find, it promptly broke, and there was no money left to pay anyone to fix it. So he fixed it himself — and never stopped.
Six professional years later, he teamed up with Ruben Perez, whose 13 years were spent wrenching in Jaguar, BMW, and Land Rover dealerships. That's 19 combined years of experience, and not a single vehicle that scares them — gas, diesel, hybrid, electric, or extreme luxury. If it has four wheels, they work on it.
Home is a Denton original: a service station built in 1969 that has been nothing but an auto repair center its entire life. New crew, same calling.
The shop runs on one rule — find the problem at its core and fix just that. Nobody's having a good day when their car breaks, so you'll get straight answers about what needs fixing now, what can wait, and what's fine as it sits. No upsells, no padding the bill.
"The staff was incredibly transparent about the issue and explained exactly what needed to be fixed immediately versus what could wait. Highly recommend to anyone in the Denton area looking for an honest, reliable mechanic!"
"If you have automotive issues, Levi and Ruben can fix them. Outstanding customer service combined with the highest level of knowledge and skill. You will thank me for the time and money saved."
"Go here instead of places that will rip you off! Everybody was nice and kid friendly, prices fair. Plus it was quick. Recommend!"
"Ruben is the best tech I know and did an amazing job explaining what was wrong with my car. No other place I'd take my car."
"Super experienced, personable and respectful staff who don't take advantage of you or try to upsell you things you don't need — with that "small business" charm."
"Levi and Ruben are the best! Go support local business!"
"Both times they were super polite and straightforward and did the repair in a timely manner. Reasonably priced as well! I will be taking my car here for everything going forward."
"Honest, trustworthy, and fairly priced. Apex Automotive is the kind of shop you can trust. They're transparent, easy to talk to, and genuinely care about taking care of their customers. Highly recommend!"
"Sometimes I hang out, sometimes I drop it off! I always know my car is in the best hands. The only place I will take my car!"
Both — call, text, or just swing by, and we'll work around your schedule. Fastest way to get booked: text us your license plate. It tells us everything we need to know about your vehicle.
12 months / 12,000 miles on parts and labor. And when a part carries a longer manufacturer warranty — say a 3-year control arm — we extend that parts warranty right along with it.
Quality aftermarket parts by default (covered by our full warranty), OEM whenever it matters to you. We'll install customer-supplied parts too — those just don't carry our warranty.
All major credit cards, Apple Pay, Android Pay, and cash. We can also send a QuickBooks payment link that unlocks Venmo and more. Just no checks.
After-hours drop-off is available: fill out the drop form, seal your key in the envelope, and slide it through the secure mail slot. Need the car to get here? Towing available upon request.
Only three things: state inspections, tire sales (rotations yes, new tires no), and body/collision work. For those, we're happy to point you to somebody good.
