"Towed my dead car here after I called & asked if they’d be able to take a look that day (they said yes). They charge a $130 diagnostic fee to look at it (with taxes & “shop tools” it’s $146. They didn’t look at it that day but called me a couple days later & said they didn’t know what’s going on, but they would figure it out for an ADDITIONAL $390 (check power, fuses,relays). Took my car somewhere else & they actually diagnosed the issue for the $140 diagnostic fee they charge."

"Reached out over the weekend for a quote for brake service. No one replied, so I called Tuesday and brought the car in and was told I would get the car back Wednesday. The brakes were fine so they told me I have an oil leak and was quoted around $200 to find the leak AND repair. I called them and asked if the leak was fixed and they said they didn’t find a leak and told me to drive it for a week and bring it back, and that I could just come pick the car up. Showed up to pick the car up and got charged $260 for wiping some oil off of the engine block, for ZERO work actually done to repair the car. When I asked if I would still be charged for this leak I was charged for that they couldn’t even find after driving it for a week, they said yes there will be a new charge and no idea of an estimate of what that would be. I have been here before for service but will not be returning back. Imagine taking your car somewhere that claims they do free checkups and then getting charged $260 for no work done on your car. And then being told to bring it back to be charged more for an issue that never got handled or located in the first place. I would gladly bring it back if the $260 was for work but nope, the car is the same as I brought it in, just money out the pocket for ZERO issues resolved. Unbelievable and predatory behavior preying on making issues up once you bring the car in with no customer service whatsoever to retain customers."

"They offer friendly, fast, and fairly priced inspection services. The cafes and other services nearby make it easy to complete other errands, eat, and shop while you wait. The metro is also within walking distance."

"Great service and great prices! I had a dead battery across the street at the gas station and Manny, who was also working as cashier, was kind enough to being over a portable charger and got my car started! Then the manager, even though late in the day, changed the battery! I was amazed since i was preparing to uber home and come back in the morning. Definitely recommend this repair shop for all your repair needs!"

"2018 Audi TT The team at Arlington Autocenter was able to accurately pinpoint the issue, offer a cost-effective solution as well as a complete solution. I choose to do the cost-effective solution since I was on a time crunch. They were able to efficiently and effectively order the parts necessary from the manufacturer on a timely matter and even went as far as to work afterhours to get my car fixed in time. My 5-Hour drive back to New York couldn't have been any smoother!"
