    The guy who helped me (the owner maybe) was so honest and helpful. Got new brakes at a very reasonable price. Will be going back!

    We used to come here before we bought a new car. We had a old used car that would need repairs. Shawn is great. I would highly recommend.

The pricing is worth the level of assurance I received, especially with the warranty and follow-up. I needed my vehicle turned around quickly, and they accommodated my timeline without cutting corners. What stood out most was that I never felt pressured at any point. Instead, they went out of their way in a respectful and professional manner to earn my business. As someone who usually wants a second opinion, I appreciated how they clearly explained what needed to be done, why, and showed proof of the work. They delivered exactly what I needed and got my vehicle back to me on time. I'll gladly continue to bring my business here moving forward.

The staff was incredibly attentive, honest, and welcoming from the start. Even though it's a smaller shop, they have a comfortable waiting area with free coffee, snacks, and water, which was a really nice touch. They took care of my oil change and filter without an appointment and finished in less than an hour and a half. What really stood out to me was their honesty and generosity -- they even told me my next oil change would be free, which I've never experienced before. I've been to dealerships and many other auto service places around the Washington area over the past 20 years, and I can truly say this level of service is rare. This was my first visit, but based on this experience, they've earned my five stars. I'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend them!

The entire process is stressful…read morebecause there are so many poor repair shops in the DMV area that finding one with integrity, skill, and genuine kindness can feel like rolling the dice. R&G Auto Repair exceeded every expectation I had. I actually found them by mistake--I thought I was sending my Jeep to a shop in Alexandria that I had used a few years ago. My vehicle needed to be towed, and I gave R&G as the destination. To say the experience was perfect doesn't fully capture how exceptional it was. That may sound dramatic, but it's true. From the moment they received my vehicle, the communication was outstanding. They kept me informed throughout the entire process, explained everything clearly, and were responsive to every question. Most importantly, the repairs were thorough, professional, and completed with great attention to detail. It's rare to find a shop that combines technical expertise with such excellent customer service, but R&G does exactly that. If you're looking for an honest, skilled, and trustworthy repair shop, I can't recommend R&G highly enough. They turned what is usually a stressful experience into an unexpectedly positive one.

Sometimes the work is fine and sometimes its not. Too often I drive out with a new problem that I did not have before. A year ago this happened with the Steering Gear Box, which started making a grinding noise as soon as I left the lot. I had to bring it back and pay for a new one. Today, I brought it in for a few minor issues and an inspection and oil change. I also asked them to look at the rear end because I was sometimes experiencing a light "clunk" when I would drive over bumps. They told me the rear differential was making that noise. It seemed odd to me that the rear differential would be the cause. So I told them it was not a big enough issue at the moment to justify $3,000 for a new rear differential. I drove it home and - voila - the rear differential is now making a grinding noise (it was not before). The clunk is still there, but that is not on them. I am not going back because I never know if I am going to drive out with more problems than I came in with.

    Took my car somewhere else for state inspection but it failed; they told me I needed new brakes.

They even ordered me Lyft rides to/from home. I received a very detailed text with a link to what needs to be done, along with photos. Very professional. Excellent service, Connor at the front desk was incredibly kind and explained things clearly. And Costco members get 15% off parts and service so I think the pricing is very fair. Highly recommend this place!

    The term "honest auto mechanic" is usually an oxymoron, as it's virtually impossible to find an…read more"honest auto mechanic" these days. So-called, "ASE certified mechanics" at the STEAL-erships are more part replacers rather than, technicians. These "mechanics" just take their fancy tablets/scan tools, and after plugging into your car's ODB port, spout off some diagnostic codes with parts to replace leading to hundreds if not thousands of dollars in "repairs." Thanks to Yelp and always trusted Yelp friend, Hannah H, I was guided to Hillbrook Automotive several years ago and have been coming ever since. The owner, Mr. Choi, is well-known in the Korean community for being an experienced mechanic, and more importantly HONEST when it comes to your auto repair needs. While Hillbrook Automotive' s clientele may be predominately Korean, over the years I've been coming here, I've noticed folks from all races, creeds, and socio-economic classes take their vehicles to be serviced by Mr. Choi and his team of skilled mechanics. A sure sign that of a garage does honest and good work, is (1). How busy it is and (2). the type of cars they work on. At Hillbrooke, I've seen not only the more common Hondas, Toyotas, etc. being worked on, but it's not uncommon to find higher-end vehicles like Mercedes, BMWs, Lexus, Acuras, in the garage bays. If folks with these high dollar vehicles come to Mr. Choi for service, that speaks VOLUMES. I've even witnessed a few times where people who live in MD will have their cars TOWED here, because they know Mr. Choi will do good work and at a fair price. According to a 2023 report from credit agency Experian (https://www.nerdwallet.com/article/loans/auto-loans/average-monthly-car-payment), the average car payment is $729 for a new vehicle and $528 for a used car...ouch! It's no wonder that many Americans are opting to keep their cars for longer and keep driving it, until the figurative "wheels fall off." My front brakes needed replacing, and just out of curiosity since I had one of those STEAL-ership coupons in the mail, I took my car to get a quote. After nearly spitting out the "free" coffee, I said thanks, but no thanks, and wouldn't you know that Mr. Choi was able to install new rotors and brakes pad for $700 cheaper than big-box STEAL-ership?!?! Just a few things to keep in mind if you take your vehicle here for service: * The parking lot is small (since there is also a gas station here). So after pulling in and finding a parking spot, look for or ask for Mr. Choi. Provide him with a brief description of work you need, and he'll take your phone number to call you after diagnosing the issue. Note: It can be very chaotic in the morning during peak drop off time, and also don't be surprised if you have to wait some time to speak with Mr. Choi. He'll be easy to spot since all the staff wear name tags, and he'll be the older Korean gentleman that everyone will be congregating around. * You will likely need someone to drop off / pickup while your car is being serviced. There isn't a "waiting room," per se. There are a few chairs inside where the cashier is located, and a small uncomfortable bench. But you aren't really going to want to wait there for a few hours, if possible. * I HIGHLY recommend getting there before 9am. After a certain time (usually around 12pm noon), depending on the complexity of the repair, you will likely have to leave your car over night, or Mr. Choi will ask you to bring your car back the next day. Not that Hillbrook Automotive needs any more 5 star reviews, but I'm so thankful that Mr. Choi and team have extended the longevity of my car well north of 100K miles. I know at some point, I'll need to get a newer vehicle, but until then, I'll only bring my car here when it needs service.
