I had an extremely uncomfortable and unprofessional phone call from Hometowne Auto Repair today…read more Which I recorded and will be putting on my socials. A woman called me without even identifying herself and immediately said, "You left two negative reviews, and I was surprised to see you on the schedule. I wanted to make sure we were good." What exactly was I supposed to take from that? I had to ask her multiple times whose name was even on these reviews before she finally said mine. One review was from years ago, and the other was from about four months ago. During the conversation, she even acknowledged that in the more recent situation, their employee had given me incorrect information. She stated that she was new manager finally and attempt to "address the issues". So why was I being confronted about an honest review of an experience your own staff mishandled? The entire call felt less like an attempt to resolve a customer-service issue and more like an attempt to make me cancel my appointment. When I finally asked directly whether she still wanted me to bring my vehicle in, suddenly she was stumbling over her words. If you wanted my business, why call me before my scheduled appointment specifically to bring up old negative reviews and tell me you were "surprised" I was on the schedule? It also leaves me with a serious question: Is this how Hometowne Auto Repair contacts every customer who has ever left a negative review, or was I singled out as a Black woman who criticized the service she received? Customers should be able to leave honest reviews--especially when a business acknowledges its employee provided incorrect information--without wondering whether those reviews will later be held against them when they try to obtain service. Bringing up a review from years ago and another from months ago immediately before my appointment was unnecessary, intimidating, and incredibly unprofessional. After that phone call, I certainly did not feel that my business was wanted or that I could comfortably trust this shop with my vehicle. TAKE YOUR CAR HERE AT YOUR OWN RISK! At the end of the day I blame myself for trying to give them another chance since i had been going to them for almost 10years! I can assure you no more chances will be given so you don't have to worry about me anymore.

This is probably the only instance where I've actually felt a negative star review is warranted,…read morebut in this case, being as I was robbed by this place for $500, it's more than justified. I don't like to make a habit of dragging local businesses, but when you've been laid off and every single dollar counts, I'd like to warn others not to spend their hard earned money here. So, over the summer, the air conditioning in my car stopped working. The car is less than 10 years old, and I've had this model before with little to no issues, so I felt more than comfortable grabbing a checkup from this particular station, especially knowing it's family owned. I was charged about $300 for a "AC RECHARGE & DYE" labor and materials. Fine; if that's what it takes, it sucks to spend money but at least my ac is working. I noticed right away that the ac worked intermittently or not at all. Took it back to this same station, they ran some kind of test and concluded it's fine. But the thing is, it was never fine. I didn't pay for a partial repair, I paid for a FULL repair. As in, I expect my ac to function after specifically shelling out my limited wages that week to pay for it. Is this an unreasonable expectation? I guess so. So let's fast-forward me being gaslit for about two months to when I was driving home from a particularly brutally hot day at my temporary job, and being mad because, Goddammit I paid for ac and I'm not getting it. I brought it back to this same place since it's blatantly obvious they never actually fixed what they charged me for. Today I was charged almost $200 for "A/C DIAGNOSTIC: PERFORM SYSTEM TEST FOR PRESSURES AND A/C FUNCTIONS. CHECK FOR AC DYE. WE FILLED OVER THE SUMMER AND IT IS NOW NOT WORKING. COMPRESSOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. FLOW SENSOR INTERMITTENTLY WORKING." OKAY SO. The last sentence appears to be the only thing that makes any sense. However, "WE FILLED IT OVER THE SUMMER AND IT IS NOW NOT WORKING" is misleading and frankly, false. To say "NOW" it's not working is entirely untrue, because it wasn't working directly after the first "repair." As I said, I brought it back after the first "repair" and I was gaslit because "sometimes the ac kicks in." Nice. As for the second part, that the "COMPRESSOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED", WHY on God's green earth did you not recognize this little issue the first time you supposedly diagnosed my car? They proceeded to provide me with a $700 estimate for an "actual" repair. Ma'am, you already charged me $300 for absolutely nothing, I was gaslit into thinking that sometimes-working-ac-is-better-than-no-ac-at-all (until it stopped working altogether), and now you charge me nearly $200 to evaluate the first diagnostic you dicked up and for which you gave me the wrong "repair"? If you had the capability to know what was actually wrong in August when I first brought her in, what was stopping you from doing whatever sort of magic diagnostic you did today, that you charged me $176.49 more for? I would have paid the $700 you gave on the estimate then and there. So, overall, I paid about $500 (while I'm between jobs), for my ac to be broken and remain broken. This is absolutely predatory behavior for a business (local or not). Save yourself a lot of money and go somewhere else.

As soon as my free warranty services were up from the dealership, I have been taking my car to Caton's Auto Repair. They have NEVER made me feel like they are trying to upsell unnecessary products or swindling me by saying my car needs repairs when everything is fine. They also go back to look at your records, so if you aren't sure what maintenance services you need at your current mileage, they will ensure everything is done. The employees are always incredibly courteous and knowledgeable. With the thousands of dollars that I'm sure I've saved from not flushing my money away to a dealership that would nickel and dime me, the value of honesty and trust cannot be beaten. I enthusiastically recommend getting all your car needs taken care of with Caton's!

Extremely bad work and shoddy parts…read more I had them install new brakes in the summer of 2024. By the winter of 2025, the brakes were wobbling. Apparently the brakes they installed were faulty (the rotors warped), but they still charged be $200 to replace them even though they were still under warranty. That would be fine, I guess, if they had done a good job or used good parts the second time, but it's been 2 months and my brakes are grinding and slipping. Apparently, the pins, the rotors, the pin boots, the pads, and a few other parts are so low quality that they're falling apart already. At this point, I'm not trusting my car to these guys again. I took my car to the mechanic near my work in Fredericksburg and paid him $500 to just do the job correctly. I deeply regret not taking my car to him in the first place, as he would have done a good job, stood by his work, and I wouldn't be out $700 for bad work and bad parts. Do yourself a favor and go to a different mechanic.
