TL Motors is on another level. Huge shoutout to Gaby Ama for being professional, honest, and keeping me updated throughout the entire process with pictures and progress updates -- that gave me a lot of confidence in the work being done. My AC wasn't working, and while the dealer wanted to just throw parts at it and "hope" it fixed the issue, TL Motors actually diagnosed the problem correctly and fixed it the right way. Now my AC is blowing ice cold again They also use genuine parts, which was really important to me. No shortcuts, no guessing -- just real knowledge and quality work. If you want a shop that actually knows what they're doing, communicates with you, and treats your car the right way, this is the place. I highly recommend TL Motors and I'll definitely be back. read more

Kudos to Carson and his team for their excellent work done on my NC3 Miata Club PRHT. He installed some highly specialized and sophisticated JDM parts (Cusco coilovers, Autoexe sway bars and end links, Beatrush Laile chassis bars) for my baby, lowered the ride height and did an alignment using flyin miata's spec. My car is transformed, I believe it really achieved "Jinba Ittai". I would highly recommend this shop to all the JDM fans out there. read more

Amazing Service! Good prices on repairs and very knowledgeable. And even gave my car a wash after it was completed

We just picked up our car from the dealership. You know which one, the 2013 Range Rover sport? The one you said needed a fuel pump, engine test, and a timing belt replacement, in total around $14,000, including parts and labor. The dealership replaced the fuel pump/fuel pump test, battery, oil change and a detail, a loner car, for the duration of the repairs, in total $6,500. People should read our other review, on goggle, check for 1 star and a very, very long explanation. We wish everyone luck, if they go to TL motors. P.S. I had a leave and 1 star read more

BUYER BEEARE BE VERY AWARE. This establishment is full of crooks and liars. We brought our Range Rover and Mercedes to be repaired The Mercedes needed a right front axel repair and a new cabin air filter. keep in mind there were no engine light on and the car had a recent check up, oil change and just past smog with flying colors. We picked up the car and two days later the engine light came on. The car was hardly able to make it back to the shop. Upon entering I was told by Gaby that our extended warranty has expired and we would need to pay. they Now said the catalytic converter was bad and the turbo was leaking. We drove the car only 20 miles from the time we picked it up. These people don't even use their real names hiding their true identity. I knew I was being scammed so I called the Bureau of automotive repair. Caron Brian who is actually Arsen Berbeyan told me if I was thinking of suing them that they already had for lawsuits pendin. I believe they were trying to hustle us to pay for their misfortune. To make matters worse, they also repaired my Range Rover and the same repair they charged thousands to repair..the passenger seat air bag light is still on. I'm scare d to death to take it back to them because they may decide to do something to my vehicle. Im sick to my stomach and have never been taken advantage of like this shop has done to our family. Absolute gross negligence. read more

Richard and the crew at TL MOTORS are awesome!!! They treat you like family and make sure that you are ok.

Hi community, like to give everyone a heads up so no one else goes thru what I'm going thru right now getting ripped off by TL Motors. I recently took my wife's 2019 Audi QS5 to dealership for oil change and inspection. Received report back few items should be replaced for maintenance. I shopped around because my wife was on me about dealership are so expensive so ok I yelped TL Motors reached out to them spoke with there sales rep Richard at the time.. I gave Richard the report of items for "maintenance" vehicle ran fine no problems. He agreed to the repairs as well as a diagnostic to make sure no other issues with vehicle. Never got diagnostic test ran on vehicle and the next morning after picking up vehicle coolant reservoir was over filled so leaking. The vehicle was getting system errors coolant wasn't getting to engine over heating. Reached back out to Richard come to find out Richard no longer employed there so spoke with owner Carson Brian whose real name is Arsen Berberyan. Took vehicle back to TL motors to fix issues that I've never had in first place with vehicle. Carson first tells me it's the coolant reservoir cap. Well of course because your mechanic over filled reservoir and coolant hose because everything so old according to Carson they just break. One of items on report - I had water pump replaced they should have replaced hoses gasket that protain to water pump which is part of coolant system it's a whole kit. Get the vehicle back after another week . Not even a full day drove car to market car over heating again. Frustrated now trying to be good customer trying to not flip out . Call Carson take back to TL motors again another week now Carson says coolant reservoir has a crack in it never saw it but ok....got the car back Monday night car overheating in morning driving to gym. Carson states now he won't honor warranty. All I want is my vehicle to run the way it did before TL motors touch my vehicle. Now I have vehicle that just sits there after paying $6k. I'm suing Carson and TL Motors will let you all know the outcome. read more

This is one of the best Mechanic shops I have found. They check your vehicle well and they let you know what needs to be done. Richard took care of very kind and answered all my questions and concerns.Carson greeted me when I went in to pick up my car and introduced himself. The guy who took my payment was very kind. My car is running great and I have no more oil leaks, Even got a car wash.:)Very clean shop. I would recommend this place if your looking for an excellent & trustworthy mechanic. read more

My car was fixed to my needs in a timely fashion and the personnel were very friendly and attentive.

After calling to confirm that they had availability to see my car that day for an estimate, we had our vehicle towed to TL Motors. They did not look at my car that day. The next day we were told that it would be $1100 to run two diagnostic test. This did not include any parts or labor for whatever issue may reveal itself. Once we had agreed to testing, I was told 3-4 hours and that the tech would start after lunch. I was never contacted. This was a Friday. We reached out on Saturday and was told our contact was off and we would hear back on Monday. This was unacceptable as we are told 3 to 4 hours the day before. At this point everything started to feel kind of sketchy. After stating our unhappiness and the situation they have left us in, another employee called us back. He claimed that during the testing on Friday a different issue (one never mentioned in any prior dealings) and our new estimate was for $18000. Outrageous. When we spoke with the staff we were told that the machine they have to run these tests shows EVERY POSSUBLE thing that could need replacement and that that is what they would need to do a they can't just replace some things and not others. A new engine for this vehicle runs about 16-18000 so this seemed a bit excessive. In the end we paid our balance for the one test that was actually run and towed our car to a dealership. Even if they were correct with their tests and what needed to be done their business practice was poor and lacked proper communication and allowed for us to believe we would have answers in a timely fashion and then left us on read for days. read more

Fantastic service from start to finish and can't recommend choosing TL Motors for any on your vehicle service needs.

The passenger seat airbag sensor stopped working in my car. Apparently you can't just replace the sensor in my vehicle, it has to be the entire seat. The dealership wanted to charge me $13k to replace the seat so I took my car in to a few repair shops and they couldn't figure out how to fix the problem. TL Motors was not only able to do a full diagnostic, they were also able to replace the seat in my car for a fraction of what the dealer had quoted me. Their rep., Carson explained thoroughly what my options were and kept me apprised of the progress during the repairs. I will definitely recommend this repair shop to my family and friends. read more

Please don't go, to this place...... I'm very mad, with this guy.... This man is very rude, my daughter called for a consultation about her car. and the man replied very rudely. he comments rudely. And my daughter only called to ask about problems with her car, he mentions that he will charge the consultation about $ 200.00 dlls. because he pay for his equipment about $ 10,000 dlls. I would never recommend this place, it is the worst place of all. A person who answers like this is a very bad business. I am very upset with this man. read more

SCAM. Went there and told them I needed my downstream o2 sensor replaced. They said 160 for the diagnosis. I said no because I already knew the sensor has to be replaced. They said they have to do the diagnosis first. Call hours later and they told me I "only" need a $60 gas cap + labor and that they already ordered it. Before I even agreed to it? I asked them if it was a Honda branded gas cap and he couldn't tell me. I told them I replaced the gas cap months ago and I need my o2 sensor replaced. "No, it's the gas cap". I've had my Honda S2000 for over 16 years and I guess I don't know my car well enough like these experts. So I pick up the car and the guy is excited to show me this $60 gas cap. I said I don't care about the gas cap, I came here for the sensor. They said the sensor was $95 and $365 to install. They charged me a total of $230 FOR A GAS CAP. Guess what, my OBD reader still says I have a problem with my o2 sensor. SCAM. read more

Ignored 5 minutes when I went in to shop, 2 men saw me. Quoted 147.99 for alignment. Red flags when they advised me of how wrong I could be if they didn't diagnose car (drive my car) themselves. Diagnosis price 157.00. I left, never going back. read more

Carson and Sean have been working on my cars for a couple years now. Each and every time the service is amazing. Their shop is clean, they have a nice waiting area, their estimate on how long it's going to take is always pretty accurate and most importantly they've earned my trust. Which is probably the biggest thing for me when finding a repair shop. I can't praise them enough. read more

You should def try this place, they seem to actually care about keeping your car healthy for a long time instead of just trying to make a quick buck, friendly and professional staff too read more

I took in my Jeep with an issue my mechanic couldn't solve. It was heating up when I drove up an incline or even a small grade. I was constantly looking at the temperature gauge every time I drove it. Carson and his team found mud between the radiator vents, changed my thermostat and the housing for it. The issue is fixed. I was already looking to sell my beloved jeep but now I'll be looking for mountains to climb Instead. I also got my coolant flushed, oil changed and my clutch/Brake fluid replaced. One stop shopping here people. They were super thorough. Will definitely go back. A+++ read more

This company is exceptional. The customer service is above and beyond. They are honest, fair, trustworthy, genuinely care if the job is completed right, well, and will do the extra mile to ensure so. Their communication is excellent. They are patient, friendly, and get the job done right. They warranty their work and practice ethical and professional business. I don't often leave reviews but these guys (and gal) deserve a shout-out as they truly take pride in their work and customer service and satisfaction, from the office staff, to the technicians, and the owner himself - you can tell they care. All around 5+ stars. read more

Took my Prius in for airbag light repair. Cruise control wasn't working and I was told by Toyota that servicing my C.C would be additional and that a diagnostic would have to be done with a $140 charge. Luckily after searching for a mechanic that works on hybrids. I met with Carson who was extremely professional and had both jobs done at no additional cost for the C.C as it was all linked to the airbag problem. Very happy to have met him, he was honest, professional and no surprise charges! The place is immaculate and very clean,I highly recommend them! read more

My truck failed smog test. TL motors did excellent job of repairing and truck passed retest easily. Mason and staff are very professional, knowledgeable and provide excellent customer service. read more

This place is one of the cleanest shop I have ever been, and very well equipped. I brought my wife's Alfa here for an oil change and a 62-point TLC inspection. They use liqui moly here, as far as I know it is one of the best oil out there, and Carson is very patient explaining all the issues he found in our vehicle. Side note: the last car shop I went, was not able to reset the service oil light after the oil change, and TL motors is equipped to do this. They are very transparent in what have been done during the process. I will bring my own miata here for any service. read more

I took over a car that's been with the family for over 20 years. Mind you, it's a 43 years old car and the car needed lots of attention. And Carson at TL motors revived my car! Couldn't be more happier when I heard the engine fired up and sounding normal again. Need a little more touch ups on some mech things. But overall, they know their trade. read more

Check engine light still on :( promised a free rent a car and ended up paying $140.. Over charged

My entire family used to go here for our car needs. Oil changes were practically free. These days, it'll be $70 or so. I ended up paying $170 because all of a sudden, I needed a new Cabin Air Filter for $65 ($30 for the filter, $35 for labor) and my air filter for another $34 ($21 for the filter, $13 for labor). My statement actually says $183 and some change. My 2013 Toyota is pretty new. More miles on it than average, but no reason to fork over a ton of money. It was recommended I need new shocks and would run me close to $600 (more if you include labor and tax)? What for? I am way under 60,000 miles, which is the Toyota mileage warranty for shocks. I went to the Toyota dealership and they said this "shock leakage" is normal on all vehicles. It's a lubricating mechanism when you hit speed bumps, pot holes, etc. Another shop told me it's normal and my shocks are fine since my tires are wearing out evenly. TL Motors then called me and I told them that Toyotas are under warranty for shocks until 60K miles. Shouldn't they know this since they service Toyotas, hence their name? I was then recommended to change my Rear Differential Fluid (for about $100), Transmission Fluid (for about $115) and Clutch Fluid (for about $100). The best part? I needed this Throttle Body Service, which they convinced me of doing with my old car. Actually, the best part is recommending doing a Coolant flush for about $150. I paid $80 total for the Rear AND Transmission Fluid. Spent two hours max doing it on my own. Not the $200+ this place quotes you at just for the fluids alone and extra for labor and then tax. I understand labor is what carries a business, but it's not something I just want to pay for right off the bat. Coolant? I am not forking over $150 or this. Did you guys know that (for my Toyota anyway) that Coolant is a long-lasting one and should be good for 11 years or 137,500 miles? If anything, you can just top it off if you dip low. A jug from the Toyota dealership was $30. As for this Throttle Body Service? Look on forums and anyone that knows cars and this is the biggest waste of money/scam ever. They just pour this bottle of "cleaner" into your engine. Sometimes, you'll even end up with an engine that is worse because of all the gunk and residue that the "cleaner" stuff left. I admit, they convinced me so much to get this on my old car so that I'd pass the new smog test rules. Side story on that, I needed to cough up almost $2000 to fix that car. They said that the car was worth $1500 according to the guys at TL Motors. I tried selling it to them because they know the car and have been servicing it (I didn't know about cars then). They wanted $300 all of a sudden. Ok. read more

Great place to service your vehicle! Superior customer Service and welcoming staff.

I highly recommended this shop for all your needs for your car! read more

Alway helpful and upfront with what is needed for your car. At our food bank it is important to have our van and box truck in top condition everyday. T L Mortors does that for us.

Top notch customer service guaranteed! I brought my car in for a battery and cable problem. Sean was professional and knowledgeable. The shop is clean and it's obvious they hold customer satisfaction to another level. The work on my vehicle was completed in a timely manner and everything was explained in detail, including showing me the parts removed. This is my shop for all car issues big or small. Thanks again Sean! read more

I was super hesitant to take my precious Lexus anywhere but my steady mechanic for 10+years. However my mechanic is almost 30 minutes one way, and I needed my ac fixed ASAP. We called a few places and decided to give TL MOTORS a try. Sean and Carson were super friendly and professional. The place is clean and well maintained. They arranged for Enterprise to pick me up and were done with my car exactly when promised, in 5 hours. Upon pick up of my car, I was given $30 in bonus bucks to use on future services. And a coupon for a free car wash. That was a cool unexpected perk. While they were fixing my ac they noticed my coolant was rusty and nasty and suggested I have my mechanic change it out. WELL, since I'm trying to trust these guys and possibly start a long relationship, I decided to let TL MOTORS service my car again. Super convenient having it close! They seem honest and genuinely concerned with letting me know what issues my car has. Even as far as taking photos to show me proof of what he's telling me, which is above and beyond what most mechanics do. I wish these guys much success! read more

I have taken a long time to post because I thought I already did. Went here from a recommendation. Very thorough check of my son's Ford Ranger reveal major problem, it was explained in depth, repaired quickly, and we received a discount along with a car wash coupon and an air freshener...nice touch. Thank you Carson. read more

Avoid this place at all costs. After spending time looking at local car shops near me, I chose to go here and boy do I regret it. Of course at first they were all really friendly, and talking highly of their work on how they specialize with Infiniti cars. Yes, I will admit Infiniti cars are really delicate but if you specialize in these cars there shouldn't be a problem. I went in having one issue and came out with another. The gauge needle on my car was stuck so I took it in, and then get a call that they're really backed up and wanted to keep my car overnight. The next day I get a call that my car was finally done and on arrival I make sure and inspect my car as they do before they accept the job. I step inside my car, and the needle was working perfectly. In my mind I was like great! Then I look around everything is looking just as I left it, but then I roll down my windows and my drivers side window was stuck. They looked at each other in kind of a panic, and said that my motor was gonna die soon anyways. I said no, my window was working perfectly and anyways how would they know? Maybe because they're the pros or the specialists right? Or maybe because they forgot to follow the specific Infiniti procedure when unhooking a battery on my car, which is known if not followed properly can damage your window motors. Hmmm.... And then offered to order a new window motor and install it, but at this point do I trust them? And you would also think that maybe they would offer some sort of discount because of what happened but no, they wanted to cash out and start a brand new job. $$$$$$$$$$$ Just stay away from this place if you want to avoid a headache, maybe they were once great many years ago but the people that are running it now have put this place to shame. read more

Carson at TL motors took REALLY good care of my car! :) They are honest people with really great customer care who not only helped me out by giving me a special deal, but also did quality work on my car! I DEFINITELY would recommend their shop to friends and family! read more

Sean @ TL Motors are the best. Honest, reasonable prices and they stand by their work. They try to work within my budget and don't sell me things I don't need. Daniel gave me some options of what needs to be repaired soon and what can wait a while. It's out of my way coming out from the IE, however they have saved me money in the long run and well worth the drive, I have all my family going there! Family owned and they take pride in that as that's how they make me feel every time I go, you don't find that in a auto shop anymore. read more

First time here! I got an oil change and tires rotation. Carson reviewed the extra service that might be do and the cost for each. Very happy with my service. You might want to schedule a visit. They are also very close to the metro, leave your car for the day while you are at work. read more

TL Motors: Clean, professional, fast, honest and meticulous in their detailed diagnosis and repair of my 2005 Lexus LS-430 Ultra and 2007 Lexus RX400 SUV. I recommend TL Motors without hesitation and will continue using their services for as long as they can keep my vehicles humming nicely along... RRR read more

These guys were great, I felt like they went above and beyond most other service shops on customer service. There's a system in place if you need to drop off your car earlier than they open, and when I couldn't pick up my car that day like I planned, they had no problem holding my car until the end of the week. And so far, it seems like the timing belt job they did on my '03 Forester is doing just fine. I would definitely recommend them to anyone, and I'll be back there anytime I need a job done. Thanks! read more

TL Motors: Operated by two competent and skilled brothers, 1 a certified Lexus mechanic and the other a certified Toyota mechanic this place is great!
