After going to the dealership and not getting an accurate assessment of what might be wrong with my car's AC, I reached out to Jhingo, who was referred by a close friend. We talked on the phone first, where he was attentive to my concerns in trying to pre-diagnose the issue beforehand. After talking with him, I felt comfortable proceeding with him doing the work because he seemed honest, fair and transparent. After taking my car, I get a call back the next day with a full diagnostic reportof what was wrong and why. He assured me the work would be completed and he kept to the schedule of when the car would be ready. I'm happy with the results and my car is kicking out some of the coldest AC. According to Jhingo, I'd have to go to the north pole if I wanted it any colder LOL!!! It took me almost 10 years of living in the DMV to find a go to knowledgeable mechanic who actually teaches you and felt trustworthy. Better late than never! read more

Unexpectedly, my car engine had a leak that caused some smoking under the hood. I drive a Chevrolet car (2012). I was further away from my dealership so that I could not have it towed but luckily one of my friends was with me and recommended her handy mechanic whose shop was closer than the dealership. Mr. Jhingo not only stayed open to ensure that someone was there to look at my car expeditiously (and on a weekend) but he was responsive, identified the source of the link quickly and gave me a very reasonable quote. I will definitely recommend him again as he did quality work and was able to make repairs on my vehicle beyond my expectations. I will take my car to him for routine maintenance as well. read more

Place is a complete joke. Had a 4 pm appointment and I get there and they tell me to come back Monday! Don't waist your time Update: this is a true review despite what the owner says. Why would I spend my time lying on a random auto repair shop! Check out my yelp history. I have better things to do. read more

Terrible place , took 3 months to write an estimate to insurance, bs the whole time and to top it off they stole a part from my vehicle. Just a horrible experience. read more

I found them on ObenBay to work on my brakes. They were very nice, explained everything thing before even accepting the keys. Gave me a time frame and was done 30 minutes early. Explained everything again when I came to pick up my car. Gave me a walk through of the work that was done. Would definitely recommend to friends and family, and would definitely go back for any other work on my car. read more

My second visit to Jhingo's. First time my hood latch broke. Dealership wanted $90 for part and ridiculous labor cost. I bought the part at advanced auto for $30 and labor at Jhingo's? $20!!!!! Today I am back for routine maintenance before a road trip. He is checking EVERYTHING to ensure my safety. Small transmission prob found which he assured can be fixed NEXT TIME. See? No rip off!! Ladies I highly recommend this shop. No taking advantage of us and charging insanely here!! #met...well u get it. read more

Jhingo is such a great mechanic! Ever since I've moved to the DMV area four years ago, he has always taken great care of my car. The customer service is superb and he is a very personable guy. At this point, I don't trust anyone else with my car. I suggest everyone in the area to check out his services. read more

I have a 2015 Nissan Altima that was involved in a collision. When I took my vehicle to the Nissan dealership they told me that this car is considered a total loss and is not worth fixing, and also convinced me to buy a new vehicle. So I went on google and found Jhingory auto works and this was the best decision I've ever made! As soon as I called Mr. Jhingo told me not to worry he will have his guys tow my vehicle right away to his shop. Today I am driving my brand new Altima that was brought back to life thanks to Mr. Jhingo and he replaced my engine, body work, radiator and starter all in TWO WEEKS!!!! You guys are a lifesaver I appreciate you and your guys that helped me get my vehicle back on the road. I recommend Mr. Jhingo for all of your vehicle needs and concerns!!!! read more

Joe at Jhingo Auto Werks is my go-to guy for all my auto service needs. He has vast knowledge and experience with foreign & domestic vehicles. His pricing is fair and great alternative to the dealership repair labor. read more

Joseph was thorough in his inspection of my car and recommendations. It is evident that he also cares about people. I recommend his shop to anyone for thorough work, clear explanations and his genuine concern. read more

Worst service ever. I called in about a job using a used part, the owner says that he will for sure help me. He inquired about the part, I called him back to give him an answer and he still confirmed that this was okay and to bring my car to check it out. I called him AGAIN when I was 15 min away and he confirmed using the used part and being able to open my hood (which i can open) from SLIGHT body damage. I got there he makes me open my hood and then he says he never said he could help me and that this isn't something he can do. COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME IDIOTS! read more

DOESN'T EVEN DESERVE ONE STAR!! The worst experience ever!! This mechanic took over 3 months to fix an oil leak in my Subaru Legacy. After that I found a lot of leak coming from my engine again. I brought it back. He hold it for 2 weeks then he said there is an oil leak coming from a hoes back from the turbo, and I never done such a job and I don't know how to change it!!!!!!! After almost 4 months!!!! I am shocked for real. I was driving another car, so I wasn't paying a lot attention to the time. The worst part is not answering my phone calls. Every time, I had to drive to his auto shop to simply ask him about the car updates. Labor cost is so hight. He charged me $800 for valve cover gasket and oil pan gasket. And what you guys will not know is he doesn't fix the cars. He doesn't even know how to fix car. I am not joking right now. And that was the reason for him to spend over 3 months fixing my car. He hires other mechanics daily to fix the cars for him. He only does the easy job such as oil change, break job.. the most lazy mechanic I have ever dealt with!!! read more

Jhingo is the best! Super nice and helpful guy; was able to really quickly troubleshoot my interior lights and alarm triggering electrical issue as a door switch, and fixed it in a matter of minutes. I would not hesitate to come right back for any other repairs or maintenance! read more

I just moved out to the Hyattsville area for an internship. I beat up my car pretty badly and needed to get some work done fast. I damaged the rear bumper, fender, and taillight. I was seriously worried about water getting into the electrical system and destroying my taillight so I needed body work done fast! I got on google and searched for body shops in the Hyattsville area. Jhingos seemed to have some good google reviews so I figured I'd get an estimate and try them out. From the moment I met the owner Jhingo, I knew that I liked him and felt that I could trust him. My dad was a mechanic, and Jhingo reminded me a lot of that old school mechanic mentality that my dad has...I just felt right about leaving my car in his hands. Jhingo gave me a great price (honestly better than I had expected) and got the work done in a timely manner. I just got my car back today and it looks as if the damage never happened!!! The paint was matched PERFECTLY! I would recommend Jhingo to anybody. He's a great guy, does great work, makes sure the work gets done right, and gives a great price! read more

Absolutely amazing service. Jhingo was personable and professional from beginning to end. My car was declared totaled however Jhingo was able to save it and have me back on the road in under two days time. Not only for people in the Hyattsville area, I would suggest this body shop to anyone who wants the guarantee that their car will be properly repaired in a timely fashion. With years of experience and degrees to match I would not trust my vehicle with anyone else. read more

Jhingo is an absolute theif! HE RIPPED ME OFF! My car broke down about four months ago and when i finally scrape up a little money to get it fixed i took it to him, every two days he would call me back with some random discovery that "needs" to be fixed. His transparency on pricing was horrible, when i spoke to him and asked about the car parts he kept saying "hold on I have to check it for you" the first price is never right. when i dropped my car off he said it was only 300.00 to get it fixed and after keeping it foe two weeks he charged me 1,300............the messed up part is HE NEVER FIXED MY CAR!! and the same thing that was happening before I took it to him happened two day after he gave it back to me. HE DID NOTHING TO MY CAR JUST TOOK MY MONEY! I am currently filing a civil suit to get my money back being as though I had to go to another Mechanic and pay him $ 450 to do the job Jhing never did.....When i asked him for the receipt of all the "parts he supposedly prchase he couldnt provide anything. I tell you no one has ever ripped me off like this before but i will make sure i get my money back.PLEASE DO NOT GO TO THIS GUY! YOU WILL BE MAKING A HUGE MISTAKE.I know I did. read more
