Vernon Memorial Hwy., Alex., VA 22309. A friend took her car there to have a flat tire repaired and a turn signal bulb replaced. They suggested that she have her oil changed as well - which she agreed to. When she returned they presented her with a bill for $274.54. Being the quiet person that she is, she paid without question. She told me about the charge and I asked to see her to see the receipt. The first item that jumped out at me was that they charged her $45.00 to check her battery, charging system, and starting system. She never asked them to perform that service as there wasn't an issue with the electrical system. They told her that her battery needed to be replaced. It was less than two years old, so she declined since she knew that IF there was a problem, it would still be under warranty. Nonetheless, they charged her $45 for a service she never asked for or authorized. They charged her $68.99 for the oil change PLUS $36.00 for oil change labor. The price of the oil change included a filter and the first 5 quarts of oil. HOWEVER, they charged her an additional $12.00 for a 6th quart of synthetic oil. According to her OWNER'S MANUAL the engine only holds FIVE -5- QUARTS of oil - MAX. They charged her $10.99 for a replacement bulb PLUS $45.00 labor to replace the burned-out bulb. This is a TWO MINUTE job, which I demonstrated to the service writer when I went back to the station with her. They also charged $40.00 to plug her leaking tire. Obviously, I have no power to dictate their ridiculously high labor charges so we accepted those, but I did insist that they refund the $12 for the extra quart of oil that was never put into her car. Also, since she never requested a check of the electrical system, I insisted on a $45 refund for that 'service'. Unfortunately, she still overpaid for the work that was done. The service writer was argumentative and belligerent from the moment he saw the two of us approach with the receipt in hand. I believe that I was only successful at getting a refund of any amount because I repeated the list of overcharges several times as new customers arrived. I DO NOT recommend that you patronize this establishment! Forewarned is Forearmed . . . Miguel de Cervantes Wish it was possible to leave negative started rating!

Support small and local businesses! Come here with your vehicle!…read more I've been taking my 2008 Mazda3 to David for years- For the longest time ever it had a clicking sound and every time I took it somewhere I felt like I only received temporary solutions that worked for a few months and then it would come back. My husband takes his RAM to David too (bought it just last fall, but tired of dealership nickle and diming him.) Our neighbors around the corner also take their cars to David! He's definitely building a reputation for himself in the neighborhood. David definitely knows what he's doing and he's a perfectionist. I can tell he takes a look at the problem in it's entirety and he's the absolute opposite of the mechanic that will try to do a quick diagnosis just to get you in and out. I just visited him again today to drop off my car (we're going out of town for the holidays) and he asked if the work he did 2 years ago was still good. I told him absolutely nothing ever came back and he had this satisfaction from hearing that. That enabled me to write this review (which I probably should have done 2 years ago). David will put in the effort to really get to the bottom of the issue and resolve the root cause problem. He will provide a series of solutions (and respective price ranges) and provide the expectation with the solution. E.g. You can pay $XXX.XX, and it'll work for the next 3 years. If you pay $YYY.YY it'll work for 10 years. To be honest, I think he's one of the rarest mechanics that provides options at all. He also breaks the car talk down to lamens terms so people like me (who don't know much about it) don't feel overwhelmed, which I appreciate very much. I've referred him to friends in the area and I hope if you stumble across this review you can read that bottom line: David knows what he's doing, he's an honest man, and you'll get more out of your vehicle than you ever thought you could.

This has been the best experience with a mechanic, hands down. I called David and explained what I…read moreneeded done. He let me pick up all the parts I wanted and drop them off. He even quoted me before he started the repairs. He kept me up to date during the process and finished early. He was extremely fair with the price for labor and could have charged me more. He's the only one in the area that I will allow to work on my car and I will recommend him to anyone.

Charges for routine maintenance are unreasonable. When I looked at my bill I noticed a charge for 2 hours of labor ($300) for simply changing just the spark plugs (just the plugs, not the wires). Repair pal suggests an average cost of $150 to $200 including labor (for a VW Jetta). I could understand if this was a V8, but for swapping out four spark plugs...that should take an hour, tops. I would think it's a mistake, but they quoted the price to me a few times over the phone. I agreed because it's tough for me to time off to take my car in for servicing, but I'm not sure I can justify going back if they are charging 2 hours of labor for what should be a 40 minute job.
