AFA Auto Repair (Formerly Amesbury Foreign Auto)

"Easily the best auto body shop I’ve been to. Everything they do is communicated clearly. Everything that requires repair is shown online and explained in detail that’s easy to understand. Staff is nice, prices are fair(actually cheaper than they originally quoted). Have the ability to communicate via text which is great when you don’t have the ability to talk on the phone. Will 100% be going back to them with any auto issues I have."

"I have been meaning to bring my 2008 Tacoma here to get checked out, but I tend to not do things until it becomes a crisis. (I became the owner of this truck halfway through 2019). The first snowstorm of the year, led to that crisis, as I had an error on my 4-wheel drive and it no longer engaged. I called and spoke to Ethan and told him what was going on and that I would also need a loaner vehicle as this is my daily driver and I work out of town. Ethan was very accomodating and got me scheduled in a reasonable amount of time. They did a full inspection, and in addition to the 4-wheel drive issue, I was going to need to address my clutch, which I knew was on borrowed time, and my front brakes, rotors, calipers, pads and lines. As much as I wasn't thrilled to do all this at once, I knew that as soon as I brought this in the clutch replacement was inevitable. They communicated throughout the process and it took about 10 days to complete, with me driving the loaner the entire time. This will now be my go to place for any further issues with the Taco. Very grateful to have such an honest and communicative repair shop in my hometown."

"Stopped by for an inspection, staff was helpful, they had snacks and coffee while I waited. Even though they were busy the place is so clean you could eat off the floor. Will return."

"Had a water pump replaced on a mk6 gti. Had them do an intake valve carbon clean at the same time. They were able to reduce the price due to the shared labor with the water pump replacement. They got the work done ahead of schedule, communicated during the process, and have a really nice online system that reports out inspection results, estimates, and pictures of the findings/repairs. Overall, great experience. Really can't ask for more out of a shop."

"I was given a repair estimate by a local VW dealership, I went to Amesbury Foreign Auto to verify that these repairs were necessary. They found 2 other issues that the dealership missed. They did an excellent job taking care of the 4 issues instead of 2 and still did it for less than the cost of the dealership quoted. I am very happy with their service. Will not hesitate to use them again."
