5.0 Stars Outstanding experience and great customer service…read more Yelp brought me here. I did a search for the top auto repair shops in my area and Craftsman was well on the list. Reviews were solid. Once I realized how close I was to two of their locations, I made a mental note to check it out. I called, they were welcoming over the phone and not in a spazzy rush like some of the other shops I had been calling around to. They took their time over the phone!!! I made an appointment to get some estimates, showed up, told them my concerns, and they checked out a few things going on with my car. Again, very welcoming in person as well. I came to get an estimate for front and rear brakes replacements, possible oil change, state inspection. As I waited, I skimmed through two books the owner had written! They said I could have a copy, so kept one. The owner has the right idea and it shows. The waiting area was cozy and super chill equipped with coffee and snacks and TV. What took the service over the top was how well the gentleman took to physically show me what was going on with my car. He also took pictures. In the front office we examined the photos and he explained, and educated me about what was going on and what needed attention and why it was relevant. He made additional recommendations based on car mileage and manufacturer recommended maintenance. We discussed pricing and I agreed to get some of the work done. They gave me a Lyft ride home. Called me when it was done a few hours later. Scheduled a Lyft for me to return. Back at the auto shop, I paid and I was on my way. I felt really impressed because they explained things about my car I had never known about in the 5 years of owning it. I felt educated and walked away understanding things better. In all the 20 years I've maintained cars, no shop has ever explained things to me the way they did. I must admit, I felt the labor fees were a bit steep. I felt my wallet go ouch! However, I feel extremely safe in my vehicle because of everything I learned. I will definitely, without a doubt return for future maintenance work and I will knock out some of the other recommended maintenance items in the near future. Highly recommend. Great experience without a single hiccup.

Don't believe the five stars I should have ignore that it's always a trapped , the lower stars always speak truth. Got safety inspection and they called and stated I had to get the tag light and tire fix today or they were going to reject my inspection and didn't let me know that I had 15 days per Virginia law to get it fix and to get inspected again, the most they could charge me was exactly $1.00 per law. I felt obligated to get fix now bc of the threat that it was going to rejected Today not knowing I could wait . I would have replaced the tag light myself for cheap. Really upset they scammed me and weren't honest. I hate going to these place as a female bc I will always get ripped off . I have a 2011 Camry Le. Tag light fix for one bulb was $45 and plug for one tire was $40. To replace rear brake pads which I denied to get here was $709.43 ... Called Gaithersburg Bay Area tires and service and they quoted me $510 ... Hope this help other females out there comparing prices and such . Thank god all safety inspection is only $20 everywhere you go because that's Virginia law , they cant change that price .

I have come here several times, and they just lost my business with their elementary level customer service.

Very reasonable price. Not much of a waiting room; be prepared to leave your vehicle and come back for it if at all possible.

Tis a shame my favorite mechanics moved back to NYC, but still can recommend this service station…read more They've been honest, and I still go here occasionally. There's no real convenience store to speak of, as they have limited selections. You might find the coffee from the 1980's. Yet if you can get in and out of here, definitely be forewarned about city traffic. Prices for gas aren't as competitive as they could be. There are other nearby stations, that are significantly less. I'm sure there's reason for their prices, but in any era I'll go where it's less. They do occasionally have awards with a credit card I use, so I do fill up here, although space is tight. Also being at the circle, be careful when rolling out.

Fortunately, we were able to exit on Nutley St and pull into the parking lot of Safeway. A Google search and Yelp led us to AK Auto Repair. Mr Kim was willing to stay open a bit late, to give the tow truck time to hook up the truck and pull it to AK Auto. Mr Kim quickly diagnosed it as a problem with the alternator. The next morning, he called us shortly after he opened to confirm the problem and gave us a quote to replace it. Based on what we had read, the quote was reasonable, so we accepted it. Shortly after 10:30 he called us back, saying the truck was ready. So we took a Lyft from the motel where we stayed and were back on the highway by 11:30. Such prompt service for people from out of state is extraordinary. While we would have preferred not having the alternator die and having our return home delayed a day, we are thankful we were led to the exceptional service of AK Auto Repair. If we could, we'd give them 6 stars.
