Great service from the greeting to when they handed me the key to say I’m all set to go! I will definitely use them for service in the future! 5 *****

I had an excellent experience at [Mechanic Shop Name]. The team was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about providing top-notch service. They quickly diagnosed the issue with my car, explained everything clearly, and gave me a fair and transparent quote. The repairs were completed on time, and my car has been running perfectly ever since.

If you’re like me and only know cars in terms of ‘drive’ and ‘park,’ but need reliable, honest advice and fair pricing—stop thinking, just go here. Hands down, this is one of the hardest-working and, let me say it again, honest businesses around. They don’t just know cars, they know people. They are the neighborhood shop that will help even when they’re not officially open. I repaired my car, my husbands cars, my coworkers go there, and when I was desperately trying to get my out of town friend’s car repaired while she was at UVA Hospital on the same day her father passed away, this shop stepped in on their closed day—no hesitation, no questions asked. And it’s not just me. Over the years, I’ve heard countless stories of them getting stranded people off the road, helping locals, and even strangers, without a second thought. I wish every industry had more people and places like this. This shop isn’t just about fixing cars—it’s about bringing back home, bringing back community.

My son, a poor college student, brought his car in for inspection and was told it required $3200 worth of work to pass. We accepted the rejection sticker and he took the car to a place close to where he goes to school, and they reinspected it and said the car was fine, and even when he probed, asking was there anything to keep an eye on they said no. I don’t believe the place that re-inspected his car had any reason to lie and say the car needed no repairs. I have noticed that you respond to other bad reviews by noting that there is no customer by that person’s name in your system. Well, I know I am not in your system, but my son is and this is a true story.

The service here is very good, they behave very well. New. Not like a customer. He looks after them like his family, Williy and the infidel Ruszbek and Eduardo and Serhat are our masters, they all work very well, clean and careful.

Auto Doctors is top on my list! Their service is the most cost efficient and top notch! They are very honest and if anything costs higher they tell you otherwise for the most part their prices are the cheapest. Aside from that I love their customer service. Everytime I take my vehicle their they follow up with me and keep me posted. Go Auto Doctors!

I took my dodge truck here, it had an electrical issue, did not start at all, I tried 2 different places, no one could say what exactly was the problem. Yasha found out there was a wiring problem and fixed it very quickly, I would recommend this place to everyone!

I have tried many different places in Charlottesville in the past 10 years, but Auto Doctor is best. I took my Honda Odyssey for inspection and Yasha was able to find that my breaks and alternator were bad, he fixed it same day and my car was ready for pick up at 4pm. We always satisfied with the service, they will answer all your questions and fix all the issues in a timely manner. Would highly recommend this place to anyone.

I took a working car for inspection, and I took it from there. The key did not respond. This is all I want to say

Warning, don't do the inspection here (my brother took his car there, it was running great, and when he went to pick it up, the key didn't work, and they did it to one of the employees. I asked him to see the car and said the key doesn't work, and he said break the glass if you want to, as if he was mocking me.

If I could leave zero stars, I would. They have had my daughter’s vehicle for 10 months. They never call to give us an update. Every time I call, I’m told the mechanic (who is also the owner) isn’t there. I just spoke to him for the first time and he had no apologies and nothing but excuses. They do not operate as an upstanding business and I would advise you take your vehicle any other place but this one. I would take any recent positive reviews with a grain of salt. UPDATE: We gave them a week and a half notice to have our car ready for us to have towed out of there, and we arrived this morning to find our car was destroyed and literally in pieces. They had told us that the car was running for 20 seconds but wouldn’t stay running the previous time we had called to check in on what was going on and if it was fixed. They had told us SEVERAL times before that that the car would be ready “by the end of the week”. There is NO way this car was able to be started, let alone run for any amount of time. We still owe money on this car and it is now a total piece of garbage. I don’t know what kind of operation they are running over there, but they are NOT honest OR trustworthy, and I would again advise you to find any other shop to work on your vehicle. I would hate to see anyone else go through what we have with them.

The work here was great! Larry was very helpful. I had only gone in for a VA State Inspection but he found a leak in the transmission due to gasket issues and had also noticed my rotors needed to be replaced, he was able to fix the issues in a timely manner. I feel they are good and honest working people.

Took my car in for an oil change and VA safety inspection. My car needed a few repairs. They explained thoroughly to me what the car needed and was very fair with the price. Covered my seats with plastic and put protective coverings on my floorboard. Very pleased. Great service !!

Absolute life saver!!!! Yasha answered the phone on the Saturday before 4th of July when he was supposed to be closed. We were driving into Charlottesville from Charlotte NC, and our AC completely died 2 hours out. He agreed to let us come in, took the car, no questions asked, and within 4 hours had us back in our car, good as new. Very courteous, very knowledgeable, and gave us detailed explanation for what had gone wrong. Thank you so much for giving up your weekend to keep our travel plans on track. HIGHLY recommend Yasha.

Excellent Service. Technical and mechanical expertise for my make and model (foreign car) is remarkable. Fair, fast, clean and affordable. The team will answer all your questions and even help you find the best parts for the right price - if you need this too! I did and it saved me a lot of money. With their technical expertise and great service they are working very hard to make sure they earn your trust - and they earned mine!

These guys are amazing! I was driving through Virginia with my 2004 Ford E350, on my way to Colorado, when I couldn’t put gas in my van (it would just flow out and down the side of the van). I had previously spent a small fortune to have a mechanic fix the problem and Denver, but he failed. Now it had gotten worse and I feared that I was going to be stranded. Not only did Auto Doctor fit me in on the same day I called, Kiefer quickly and correctly diagnosed the problem and fixed in under an hour! Not only that, but he rode with me to the gas station to verify that I could fill up the car. I can’t say enough about the professionalism of these guys. Also, as a single woman, I felt that they respected me and discussed the details of the issue as they would with anybody else. Lastly, it was impressive how the owner initially assessed the problem and then assigned the guy who had expertise in the area.

Worked me in 2 separate times, charged me fair prices and got me back on the road in record time.

Yasha was awesome. He showed up very quickly, within 30 minutes with a hour wait time given. He was extremely helpful and nice. J Legacy Trucking LLC would highly recommend

came in for inspection they failed car due to inner tie rod and brake caliper. we took car home fixed it brought back next day. they called said car failed again because of inner tie rod on opposite side. I ask why he was inspecting whole car again and not just parts it failed for he said thats what you do ( I know better) so I ask how it goes bad in 24 hours? Larry said he must have wrote it down wrong. long story short he wanted to put the old one we took off and put on other said I said no. Called state inspection police they came inspected car and nothing was wrong with tie rod but lower ball joint was bad someone is in trouble.
