The work is done quick, right the first time, & if there's a problem with your vehicle, or something that you need to watch out for / keep an eye on for changes in sound, or feel, then they will tell you about it straight up. I've never seen either Boomer or Emil raise their voice in anger at any customer, either on the phone or to their face. I've been going here since 2009, & my housemate's been a frequent customer since the mid-90's. They do vehicle inspections by the book, so if something isn't right, they will tell you about it, & usually point it out to you in person so that you can see what needs to be fixed. If you ask around Milton, you'll see that this is a decent garage to bring your vehicle to. Don't just go off off the one nay-sayer here on the reviews.

Just had my Balljoints replaced an they didnt have the correct tool so they took the tool they had…read morean modified it to work so now they have a special tool for balljoints for BMW's. It was a little longer then planned but that's because of the tool issue and finding two ball joints for my year. Either way they always have treated me right an are honest. That's the most important when having a car serviced. I'd rather know I need this an that instead of them just overlooking it for my pockets sake. I prefer safety over money anyway this is the 3 year they have worked on my cars and I recommend them to anyone who asks. I'm not saying they're perfect because it doesn't exist at any shop it's impossible so I don't care what anyone says they have always been a great company. If he can't do the work he will know of a place or two that he can recommend. Stay safe everyone

While this is second-hand information (my brother observed this, not me) I am having him read this…read moreto make sure I got the story straight. He has no ties to Fairfax other than me, but I do. I love this town, and I know that things like this matter to our community. My brother brought my vehicle in to Tinker's Auto on 7/21/2020 for an oil change and state inspection. It was the first time I'd brought a vehicle to them, but knew they were a newer business and wanted to support my neighbors. For full transparency, my car didn't pass inspection. They didn't charge me for the inspection either (which was a pleasant surprise and I really appreciated)! So this review has nothing to do with that. One of the owners, Nickie Tinker, was at the front desk. There are bags of locally-sourced popcorn that customers can purchase. Another customer was at the desk talking to Nickie about this while my brother was waiting, and Nickie starts talking about how when she was a kid, they used to call the burnt popcorn kernels "niiiii---- heads". She didn't actually say the word, but turned to my brother and said "What were they called?" She was trying to get my brother to say it for her. My brother, not wanting to engage, said "I have no idea what you're talking about". Nickie then half-said the word again, and said something to the extent of "We're not supposed to say that any more." After my brother recounted the story to me, I posted on Facebook to (my friends only) asking for advice on how to handle this. Someone evidently told Nickie about my plan to publicize my brother's experience. She called me via FB messenger twice on Sunday (7/26) before 9am, and then wrote me a message (see screenshots). It is clear that she doesn't remember what she said that day. But she does recount how that while she is not a racist, she does condone racist conversation in her place of business. If you don't take issue with this sort of thing, by all means, give these people your money. But if you expect better from your neighbors, maybe choose to have your vehicle serviced elsewhere.

This is the person claiming racism at this garage (Tinkers)and she wasn't even there to verify what…read morewas said.

They gave us an estimate that the insurance promptly approved, then ordered parts. The car was drivable, so I drove it until the parts came in. They gave me an estimated time needed for repair which was accurate, and kept me informed of progress. When I got the car back, the repair and paint job were impeccable and the car had even been cleaned and vacuumed. I highly recommend Waine's for fair pricing, excellent work, and a helpful and courteous staff (shout out to Candy). Should my car need any repairs, I will call Waine's.
