I was impressed by all aspects of Affordable Automotive’s operations. Repairs were made in a timely manner. Customer service was exemplary.
The whole team is like family they are honest reliable friendly and so much more. My family has known James for over a decade he has always done right by us. Ricky Jose and Chris are amazing as well they do amazing work and are so friendly! I highly recommend this shop!
Great shop and highly trained employees. Please continue to support this business and have your automotive needs taken care of. Quality work is a very high standard here and satisfaction guaranteed. words of gratitude to express of how I was treated with this business! I have never been able to trust a Repair shop but I feel at ease now knowing I have one to trust in Affordable automotive . Thanks, James and crew.
Horrible customer service and quoted close to the max for simple repair that can be completed within the hour. service rep: Matt is rude and came across very aggressively before even getting checked in. Did not feel comfortable at all and had my car towed elsewhere. I cannot speak on how well the team works however I definitely didn’t feel comfortable confirming any work to be done after the first few conversations.
After taking my car into the dealership for mainly some computer issues (electrical?), along with repair of front passenger lock, brake issues and general servicing, I was shocked at the cost of these repairs. They also told me about an issue with my tailgate which had never shown a problem. A friend referred me to Affordable Auto and boy, am I glad !!! Never, have I ever had such great service on anything before meeting these guys. James paid such attention to detail and was extremely personable and attentive. Everything was fixed and I feel like my 10 year old car is like brand new !! With only 69,000 miles on it and the perfect auto repair place to take it to for service, I am so happy !!!! And by the way, they checked and double checked the tail gate and found nothing wrong with it. Honesty abounds. And it truly IS Affordable Auto Care.
Great experience, very professional, friendly, quick work, and helpful. They even saved me work on the car, showing me how some parts my dealership said needed to be replaced were actually still good, and so saved me a substantial amount. I highly appreciate their work and will be back soon
After paying over 1800.00 for a/c compresssor and leak test my fan blower didnt work correctly after leaving shop. I went back to shop 5 minutes after receiving vehicle and explained to Mathew maybe tech had a vacuum hose on wrong. He wasnt to interested in hearing anything i said but kept referring to a part that might be the problem and it was a Ford motor issue not Affordable Auto . Terrible customer service if this how they treat there customers.
James, Matthew and the team helped me with a Middle muffler delete on my 18 Challenger RT Plus shaker. Definitely recommended. Super professional answered my questions and James was so down to earth, we held a great conversation! As for the service I’m 100% satisfied. Had my RT sounding like a hellcat. In the process I was welcomed to ask my questions and observe all aspects. This is what really will bring me back. Keep up the great work and professionalism! Outstanding guys!
The visit here was outstanding. Mr. James and the technicians were able to diagnose my problem in a quick and efficient manner. The customer service here was outstanding! I will definitely be getting my vehicles serviced here from now on.
James Johnson at Affordable Automotive really does an outstanding job through and through. From customer service to education to quality work, James gets the job done. Very patient and thorough with his work. You will leave Affordable Auto with peace of mind knowing that everything paid for has been done and hell even check the rest of your vehicle for any potential issues you may not be noticing. Id recommend James 10 out of 10 times
These guys do great work at affordable prices, Matthew and James are east to.work with and their young protege, Jose, is an excellent mechanic.
I’ve been looking for an auto maintenance home for awhile now and I’ve finally found one at Affordable Automotive. They helped me get my personal vehicle squared away and let me know of several things that I should look to get fixed in the near future but didn’t push me to spend a whole bunch of money right then. They do a thorough inspection labeling things as GOOD, THINGS THEY SUGGEST YOU GET DONE EVENTUALLY, AND OFCOURSE THINGS THAT ARE VERY IMPORTANT AND OR NEEDED TO PASS AN STATE INSPECTION. All of the staff are hands on and dedicated to their company. The Manager James and Matt at the front desk are Awesome! If you are looking for good work, reliable mechanics, and good communication, you’ve found it!
I have a small fleet of cars, five, and these guys take care of all of them, recommend upcoming service, work with my budget, and make the journey very personal. James and Matt are the key people I see all the time and they are great. The whole staff seem to be very friendly, Its been great dealing with these guys over the last 8 years
James and his team at Affordable Automotive have been servicing my cars for the past several years. We have Japanese and American manufactured vehicles and trust them to maintain as well as fix them whenever needed. Whether it is an oil change, squeaky brakes or an electrical issue on my driver door panel - they can get the job done professionally and at a reasonable price. I have gone to other mechanics in town but have realized that Affordable Automotive is the most honest, reliable and affordable garage. I trust them with the maintenance of my cars. They are good people.
These folks know what they are doing. I also really appreciate the fellow at the front desk. He is knowledgeable, very helpful as well as kind. This is the only place we go to have work done on our vehicles.
Great experience with this team. Quick to make an appointment and identify the issues once I was in the shop. I have an older 4Runner and I trust them to take care of it!
I love James. He is knowledgeable and friendly. He does not take advantage of my status of ovary possession and does not talk down to me. He remembers my name and doesnt over charge me. I as a woman enjoy going to this place because they do not try to mansplain or confuse me.
All credit and thanks to James and crew at this shop. After my accident, they were able to get me back on the road better than ever with amazing speed and honesty. Great place to work with.
Affordable Auto & its Staff and their Professional Work are Amazing! I Recommend them to Everyone! Particularly for James the Service Manager & his Supervisry role over a Great Talented Staff!
Came in after running over an object on the interstate. The shop took my car in and had me back on the road in less than 30 minutes. If I lived in Fredericksburg theyd be my preferred shop to take my car!
LOOK NOWHERE ELSE BUT HERE!!! From the phone call to the drive off this was hands down the best experience I had with a mechanic shop. I really got my moneys worth thanks to these guys!!
Great guys...honest and trustworthy and no upsale. Ill be going back for all of my car repair needs . A special thanks to James for the transparency and conversation.
I took my car in to be checked because It was misfiring. I told them I already knew which cylinder was misfiring, but they insisted they had to run there own diagnostics, so I said that was fine. They ran the diagnostic and it came back exactly what I had already told them prior. So he told me how much it would be to fix my ignition coil. I said that’s fine I’ll pay the price. He informed me they didn’t have the ignition coil they needed for my car in the shop, so they would have to order the part and as soon as it came in they would change it and give me a call. The following day they called me and said everything was fine and that I could come pick it up. I was informed that the ignition coil had a 3 year warranty on it if anything were to happen to it.I picked it up and within a few days my car was still doing the same thing (Misfiring), so I called the shop back and asked if they could check it again to see if the ignition coil they had put in was faulty. They checked it again and said they didn’t see anything wrong with it. I’m like well why is it still misfiring? That doesn’t make sense if you guys just replaced the ignition coil and I had previously changed the spark plug.. so basically they couldn’t give me an answer as to why it was still doing the same thing. So I took my car and left.Within a few days of me taking it back the second time my check engine light comes on! I called back to see if they would check it again. Because something isn’t making sense. I paid you guys money to fix my car and it didn’t get fixed. It actually got worse. Because my check engine light wasn’t on before I brought it in and within 2 weeks of them “fixing it” my check engine light was on..I took it back and the guy ran the scanner on my car and told me it was now the same cylinder and another one that was misfiring. Told me that his mechanic didn’t want to keep running codes on my car because he wasn’t getting paid for it, so he went ahead and did it for me.... why would you tell a customer that? When they just paid you there hard earned money to get something fixed and the car isn’t fixed!So now he asked if I wanted to get the other 3 changed. That I could change one ignition coil at a time if I didn’t have all the money to do it at once. I said no. I’ll have to get someone else to fix it because I’m not paying you guys more money to fix my car when that should’ve been recommend from the beginning, so I would’ve paid one set price and not two different prices. I ended up having to spend additional money to get my car fixed outside of what I paid them at the shop.Always call around and make sure you do your research before you take your car somewhere to be fixed.
Very friendly and professional. Quick turn. Good work. Reasonable price. Great experience.
My father introduced me to James (the owner) because he faithfully comes to this shop and ONLY this shop. My father doesn’t trust ANY mechanics except for James and his colleagues due to previous negative experiences where other mechanics have overcharged and recommended unnecessary repairs. Several of my church members as well as friends and other loved ones have recommended Affordable Automotive to me, so I decided to give them a try.The care and attention shown to my vehicle was far superior than any service I have ever received. James was honest about what needed to be done and also took the time to educate me about my particular vehicle. As a typical woman, I know only about basic routine maintenance, however James was able to explain everything to me in layman’s terms.I felt truly comfortable and confident leaving my vehicle in his care. The work performed was nothing short of perfection. It was completed in the estimated time allotted despite me arriving without an appointment. James was still able to fit me into their schedule.The service area is always neat and tidy with plenty of flavored coffee available for the customers. ALL of the staff there are friendly, courteous, knowledgeable, and go above and beyond my expectations!My most recent visit consisted of having my hubcaps installed (which were removed by a different auto repair shop for service and forgotten to be put back on and then they “lost” them). Not only did Affordable Automotive install them, but they took the time out to wash and clean my tires as well so that my hubcaps were shining and it appeared as though I had just purchased four brand new tires!I’ve had some serious work performed on other occasions as well. The same work quoted as over $2000+ elsewhere, Affordable Automotive completed for WELL under that amount and completed it in a quicker timeframe. Their prices are beyond competitive and are actually affordable, just like their name states. And I didn’t have to keep bringing my vehicle back to keep fixing the same issue over and over again; It was repaired correctly the first time.I could go on and on about how wonderful this place is! This is an ELITE automotive repair shop and they have won me over as a customer for life! I will continue to sing their praises and recommend them to everyone that I know.Thank you James and to all of the staff there for all of your hard work, dedication, and integrity to your craft. May God bless this business and all of the staff associated with it for their pure hearts and commitment to good old-fashioned customer service!
Ive been taking my vehicles to Affordable for over 20 years. They have always been professional, courteous, and most of all honest. It takes time to build trust, and Affordable has my complete trust. Thats hard to come by in the auto repair business.
James was wonderful and answered all my questions the first day I spoke to him. Was able to get one of my cars in same day for inspection. My husband liked them so much we came back the next day to get my van inspected. The front office guy (Matt????) was also very helpful and nice. Definitely will use them again.
I was looking to purchase a car in Fredericksburg, but I live about two hours away. Before making the trip, I asked the dealer to take the car to Affordable Automotive for a pre-purchase inspection, after finding them on the Internet. James was extremely helpful with great communication and professionalism. He gave me a detailed report of the condition of the car, which helped in giving me peace of mind prior to purchase. And, the charge was very affordable compared to others I spoke to. I highly recommend them to anyone who needs a similar service.
I have only taken my vehicles to one mechanic for 18 years. Well he sold his business and moved on. So selecting and trusting a new place for all my vehicle services was a bit of a challenge. Searching for a company with positive reviews, I selected Affordable Automotive Repair. Every positive review about Matthew & James is absolutely the truth. They are extremely personable, professional and most of all knowledgeable. My car was ready when expected, just as clean as I brought it in and running like a champ. They are extremely busy, which is no surprise too me.Affordable has a customer for life! Many Thanks Guys...........Chris
My family had the unfortunate experience of having two of our cars need immediate attention in the same day. We ended up having our vehicles towed to Affordable Automotive and we had a great experience. The service staff and technicians (I spoke with James and Matthew) kept us updated on the diagnosis and informed/explained the path forward to get the vehicles back on the road. I feel the prices they charge are very competitive and the service was great and prompt. We will continue to use them in the future and will recommend them without hesitation.
Took my 2012 Hyundai Elantra there to repair some power steering and electrical issues that my previous mechanic had caused while working on something else. They did what they promised and in a timely manner. I was very impressed and will definitely use them again when the time comes.
Love this place!! Very professional and friendly staff and crew. They give you a whole report and pics as to what you came in for, with what they found. And you know the price before they start working. Highly recommend them
Have used this repair shop numerous times in the last couple years because they have a great customer service due to Matthew and James. The repair and replacement work is spot on especially when it comes to general maintenance like brake jobs. I recommend using this shop. My last visits although seemed rushed. We had a tech there replace our alternator. We were aware of check engine light and at the last couple times should of had them check for codes and do a full diagnostic. After replacing the alternator the car AC no longer works. Was told they needed to disconnect the AC line and recharge the AC system to remove alternator. After doing my research its not necessary to do so to remove alternator in our car. It was just easier and faster to do so.Took the car in for a diagnostic, the AC apparently wasnt something even considered checking. Appreciate the fast service but perferred them to take as much time as possible to make sure everything was working. It was my fault for not checking before leaving the shop. Was told there was a radiator leak although after receiving the car back all within a week the invoice showed there were no leaks and the car ran as designed. Which was weird wording which told me something was wrong.Update: Shop didnt put Freeon into the AC dissapointng
I don’t give out glowing reviews often. That said, I can’t compliment or recommend the service and attention to detail from Affordable Auto Repair! I just had a state inspection and oil change today that were completed quicker than I believe I have ever received. I thought they had texted me the pre inspection report to my phone as I was sitting in the waiting area, but they confirmed that I was ready to go! I hadn’t planned to do the oil change but had enough time that I asked them to go ahead. They had that done almost as quick! After years of dealing with garages that always push for more work, the low pressure service professional assistance is a breath of fresh air. If you need service. Make this your first and only call!
Made an appointment for an oil change & brake flush. Was waiting for an hour only to see that they didnt even bring my car in because they were too busy working on another car and the workers were messing around and not working. Decided to just get up, asked for my keys and left. For sure not coming back to this affordable shop.
First, and up front, is James. I had our vehicle repaired earlier last month and they were very thorough and helpful. Well, we had another issue, unrelated, and my first thought was to call James. The guys did a very thorough job. I will be back. Period.
The ONLY place in the area that could do an alignment on my 2020 kia telluride. Even kia dealership could not do it. I will definitely recommend and use them again.
Great Customer Service as always. These guys work hard, always fix the issues, and good pricing. Definitely check them out.
Im so happy I chose this place!! Wonderful customer service, and my car is driving like new! 😊
Stopped in in to get an alignment. I was able to get it done the same day. Always appreciate the service here. Price was reasonable and my vehicle was in and out of there very quickly.
Great service everytime I bring my car over. Very affordable too lol
Very friendly and reliable so far. Second year in a row taking my cars in for inspections and no problems yet.
I really cant say enough great things about Affordable. Matthew is so friendly,helpful and professional when you walk in and by phone. James is a great guy. His personality is infectious to everyone. I havent met the owner yet Brad but what they did for me for my control arm they truly are the best shop around. I highly recommend them everyone. I love that they email you the service report with the photos to show you whats wrong. They are transparent and upfront about pricing. I will continue to get all of my work done here. No one will touch my car but Affordable. One of their mechanics John was efficient and concerned for my safety. He was very thorough with my car.Thank you Affordable for caring about my car and safety. For making me feel like part of the family. You guys are truly great.
Prompt and good service. I broke down on I95 and the towing company (Michaels Towing - also good) recommended Affordable Auto. Knowing I was travelling, they looked at my truck as soon as possible and had it fixed at a reasonable price as soon as they could.
Had a really pleasant experience for the five+ times I have visited for oil changes and other repairs. James is always super chill and fun to talk and explains things in an easy to understand way for someone who isn’t too familiar with cars
James was very helpful and out of his way to help.also took me right in aith no appointment to tell me what was wrong with again
Thank you James and crew! Awesome experiences always
Car taken in for a diagnostic on AC system for $175. Was were told issue lied in a hose that was leaking would be $300 to repair. Got call hose was repaired but they found another issue. The leakage destroyed the AC compressor which needs to be replaced along with new valve and some other part which would cost $2300. Now the compressor is a part of the AC unit so if you are diagnosing problems would that not be checked as well and explained initially? I understand there are things you cant see until you get into the guts of the car but the compressor is easily visable when you pop the hood & it should of been examined. Especially when employees were told it had to be replaced a year prior. Basically spent $500 on a new toilet only to be told you need a $2300 plumbing system AFTER the toilet is installed. Positives: the young man working was very polite informing us about the issue, they sent photos of what they said the issue was, and the work was done relatively prompt. I just genuinely wish a more thorough job was done in the beginning so I wouldnt have wasted my money or could of priced repairs with other people.To spend $500 & still be without air conditioning.
Terrible customer service from the moment I walked in the door..the rep at the desk was rude and disrespectful
These guys are great. We use them for just about everything to maintain are cars and they greet us by name when we come in.
I was greeted on the phone promptly with professional voice thats clear spoken. I felt heard, valued and invited to come in to get my car looked at for free. Came in top find out the manager was not only the one I spoke with on phone, butt also works on cars. Got my marker light fixed at low reasonable price quickly and waited about 30 min at most. I will be back!
Completely professional and open about any repairs / future issues that may cause trouble. Friendly staff, great to talk to!
Great service and got it fixed quick. Will be my go to shop here on out.
I went here for a state inspection during COVID, and they did a great job! They pointed out that my tires were getting old, and even sent me close-up pictures showing evidence of dry rot. I appreciate their use of technology to communicate to their customers whats going on. :-)
Professional, customer friendly, upfront and honest in their dealings.
Ive been taking my vehicles to Affordable for 18 years and will continue to do so. They are professional and can always determine the problem and fix it. Its good to have an honest automotive repair shop in the area.
Great group of guys, always professional and helpful. We have been bringing our cars to them for several years. Matthew and James couldnt be better to work with.
Ive been using this place for years on all of my cars and have never been disappointed. The provide quality repairs at reasonable prices and also offer very personable service. I can highly recommend them.
Alsome people!!
The best...great service, great mechanics, friendly atmosphere. Highly Recommended!!!
As a veteran and a person who has lived in the area my whole life, Im glad Ive found this amazing place. The service is awesome. Always go for a local business 😉💪. Fxbg strongall cars foreign and domestic.
They were awesome! Took the time to explain all the processes and possible future repairs or services!Also the prices are reasonable without substituting quality!
Every single person I talked to or worked with at this place was amazingly helpful and nice - service was quick, and relatively inexpensive. Very wonderful experience and will continue coming back when need be!
After getting an estimate at another place, I called Affordable Auto to get a simple estimate over the phone. I told the guy I needed a basic tune up and the coil pack on the #6 cylinder replaced, he said I should really get all 6 done at the same time (which would be like $1000 more), and that the #6 cylinder was in the back and hard to get to on my car which added to the cost. I know for a fact that it is in the very front. He is either lying or wrong, trying to get me to pay for more services. He sounded annoyed and told me I dont know what youre fishing for... just trying to shop around and compare prices... HARD PASS.
This has to be the best shop in Fredericksburg/spotsylvania. Always professional and get things done correctly! Have been going to them for years and would recommend any other place! Go to Affordable and they will take care you!
Quick response when service is needed. They wear mask for the safety of everyone. Friendly environment.
Excellent and Friendly Service. Matthew and James are a pleasure to work with. They were able to schedule and complete repairs immediately. A+ work at a reasonable price.
Great customer service! James explains all issues and repairs in detail, and can show you the part he worked on, when asked. Ive shopped around for the best repair prices, that also have quality work, and good customer service. Affordable Automotive definitely has all of these qualities. They are usually able to give you a ride to work or back home, if you live close by theyre shop.
What I like about Affordable Automotive is that I can come in without an appointment whenever I need to. I have to wait some, but it is never too long. The work they do is lasting--they dont fix it and then next month you have to come in and do it all over again. The employees are all very friendly and polite. The cost of the repair is reasonable.
We love them. Im entitled to free inspections from the dealership but I prefer going to Affordable.We have them handle everything that goes on with our vehicles. Their staff is amazing and James and Tim always give us confidence we are getting personalized service at a great value.
A recent dreaded car repair became a positive experience here. There was good communication from beginning to end and the service was friendly, skilled and timely. I was even given a courtesy ride home while the repairs were being made. I will be coming back!
Update 11.21.19I am pleased to update this review as i stated i would. I received a reminder call from James, the service manager, to bring my vehicle back in to determine the cause for my engine light to be on. I thought this was definitely considerate for a place to remind a customer to come back under these circumstances. So i took my truck back plus my daughters car back on Tues and by this morning i received a call from James with the solution for both. They identified my issue was a heated O2 sensor and replaced it at no additional cost to me...though they may not have caused the issue...which was understood given the details as to how this sensor would need to be replaced. They checked my daughters car and the codes that registered were for cylinders 3 & 2 and a random cylinder (of i explained that correctly). James does a fabulous job of explaining all of these things very patiently. Nonetheless, he said they checked for oil leaks and gaskets and did not see any leaks. Saw she was 2 quarts low on oil and in need of an oil change. So we had them change the oil for us both. I got my vehicle back today and the engine light is out! The maintenance light is out and it drives like new....really! I can feel the difference in the drive!! We left my daughters car for an alignment that was already needed and a tire mount and balance. They were able to get my daughters car squeezed in today and left the car for our convenience to pick it up after hours in their drop box! I would highly recommend Affordable Auto to anyone and especially women!Took my 05 Lexus RX330 for inspection and it failed. Matthew was informative and helpful and notified me via phone and email with pics of what failed including a listing of what passed and any recommended maintenance. I do like that service (having pics). I proceeded with allowing them to make the repairs including front disc brakes n rotors, stabilizer sway bar, exhaust hanger, headlight bulb, front headlight restoration, license plate bulb, and alignment! $2228....over $900 was labor alone. They provided a loaner car....which was a really old (maybe 80 or 90s model) Ford Explorer 2 door....but thought it was a nice gesture of them to offer. When i got my vehicle back in just a couple days I thought it drove smoothly, but a little smoke was coming from my hood after i drove off. They told me to bring it right back. I did. They said it was from a solvent that was sprayed on the vehicle due to rust prior to repair. They drove it and let it run off and cleaned it as well. The smoke subsided. Later that same day on my way home, however, my engine light was now on and another indicator light VSC (not sure what that is). I called them again to ascertain why this would be. They acknowledged that it wasnt on prior when i dropped it off, but would be happy to take a look and told me i could bring it back in. I shared that it was concerning that my engine light had never come on before and with my first time allowing them to make repairs....i get my vehicle back with the engine light on. Whats so uncanny is my daughter took her vehicle the following week (just a few days ago) to have a tire plugged and when she and i picked up her vehicle today (Sun 11.17.19) her engine light was also on. It had never been on before either. I had her call and let them know. I do hope that there was no foul play and that Affordable Auto Repair is not taking advantage of their female customers. Between my daughter and myself we have 3 vehicles we have consistently taken to Affordable for inspections. I thought Id give the repairs a try. I will follow up with a post with the outcome of our visit regarding the engine lights for both our vehicles.
I took my car in for state inspection at the end of the month, and they completed it the same day. Since my car failed, they took pictures of the issues and sent me a detailed report via text message.One of the things my car needed to pass was new tires. They had no problem with me taking my car elsewhere to get them cheaper, and were not pushy regarding the other potential issues my car had.Very good place to go. I will be going back!
Polite, professional and knowledgeable staff and valued pricing. Excellent customers service appears to be thier goal. Good experience and highly recommend if you need automotive services.
My brother took his car to this place, they were trying to charge him an arm and leg for everything. He went to Mr tire and got everything done for half the cost. The car runs great. There is NOTHING affordable about this place.
Best mechanic in town. Always friendly ALWAY HONEST
We have used the place several times for a couple of our cars. They are always friendly and do am amazing job. Prices are great too
My time spent at affordable automotive was the most excellent experience I ever encountered. Their rates are far more superior with more affordability compared to all the other mechanics in the Fredericksburg area.I will definitely come back next year for my car service.
Great place had my car serviced here as well as my father has his cars serviced here the crew here are very professional I highly recommend
Awesome customer service! The guy in the front desk was awesome and comfortable to talk to
I have been a returning customer here for 3 years. James is a great guy. His friendly disposition lets you know that you are not just a number on a ticket. Every single time I have come here, I have been pleased with the service. They are professional, friendly, honest and knowledgeable. They take the time to make sure that you have a full understanding of what is going on with your car. It always feels like they care about not only your satisfaction but the quality of the service at an affordable price. I guess the name fits.
Great experience at Affordable! Much better price than dealership and quality of work product has been great so far. I look forward to working with Affordable with the other cars in our familys fleet. James was great to work with on this project.
Always very fair and friendly. Prices are reasonable and I never ever had the feeling that they sold me something (I actually have brought in the car for something and then was advised for a cheaper option). Loyal customer!
I took my 2004 Volvo XC90 to Affordable for an oil change and state inspection at the recommendation of a coworker who is a long time customer of theirs. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, the service was performed efficiently, and the waiting area was clean and comfortable. I will be going back to Affordable Automotive and recommending them to my family and friends. Thank you James!
6 year experience with this repair and maintenance company. Our fleet includes a 1956 F-350 antique fire truck, a 1991 antique Chevy Caprice, a 2011 Ford Limited Edition Fusion, a 2012 Chrysler 200 sales vehicle (logging 65,000 miles per year) and a 2008 Dodge 3500 dually with a Cummins 6.7L diesel. Affordable keeps them all inspected, safe, and on the road. No more need be said.
These guys are awesome. Work never takes long and they are always very polite. James is the man.
James greets you fast and is friendly. Busy shop. Lots of regular customers. Clean shop. They have protective floor mats to keep floors clean when mechanics get in car. Just got inspection. Comfortable waiting lounge.
Always excellent service.
Buyer beware!! Youll see a $0.00 charge on your estimate and bill. While it appears to be a complimentary line item for lifetime coverage on parts and labor for your repairs. However, when you bring a noticable defect back after a year, theyll gladly inform you that you misread and misunderstood because that $0.00 means that you didnt actually buy their lifetime warranty and as such youre only covered by their default warranty which has conveniently just expired. Theyll also dodge the question why they didnt notice the issue in the intervening state inspection. Finally, their quote (with veteran discount) is two times more expensive than the quote from a dealership that found the uneven brake wearing. Pohanka - $275 Affordable - $550. Just saying.
Okay price for an oil change. They have free WiFi which is a nice touch. The location isnt that great and its sort of hidden from view. Though they pretty much check everything including brakes and other fluids. The guy at the front desk is professional, knowledgeable and friendly.
This is a great place to bring my truck.. they are always nice and friendly with helping me with fixing and answering my questions. I recommend this place to all my co- workers and friends. Thanks guys keep up the good work
James at the front desk is awesome. Very positive and informative person. Honest people work at Affordable Automotive.
So after a most horrific experience a few days ago at RnR wheels and tires of Fredericksburg I wasnt sure I could trust someone else with another one of my vehicles. I have driven. By this place for years and never used thier services. Today was the day. Customer service was very satisfying. I was called with updates of what was going on per my request. Nothing was done that I didnt already approve and the price wasnt to hateful. And they didnt try to sell me other services. So to recap they did everything I requested be done, It was done in a very timely fashion, The price wasnt bad, and they were professional and friendly. Highly recommend these guys. will visit again soon.
This place is expensive. Affordable charged me940. 00 to change two hoses when it was leaking anti-freeze. Really? The work only took a few hours. Shocking and very disappointed that it cost me so much for so little.
Affordable Auto was referred to me some five years ago. What a gift that referral has been. I tell them that they are the next best thing to Dad-care. The have given me excellent service at a price that leaves money on the table for other important areas of my life like ... animal rescue! Speaking of animal rescue ... one day I was rushing to an adoption event and noticed I had an almost flat tire. I ran to them and they rushed to get me and my pup road-worthy. What a miracle that we made it to the event of time and that miracle has a team of faces behind it. My friends, who have become like family, at Affordable Automotive Repair. Thanks for everything!
My experience is very good one. It was my last night in the area my car was making a flapping noise. Surely, I was not going make my SUV make 22-hour drive. I call several shops that next morning and no was able to fit me in. The told me that they would make room for me. I was in and out of there within an hour. Thank you.
After the dealer gave us a huge estimate for repairs, Affordable Automotive Repair reduced the issue list and even fixed those items at a much lower price. We ended up spending less than half of what the dealer wanted to resolve issues that kept bringing the check-engine light on. Repair was done in the time they gave us. Only issue was method of contacting Affordable Automotive Repair seemed to have failed so we had to repeat the process once we got on site explaining the issues and appointment given us.
I called Affordable Automotive to assist on a pre-purchase review/ inspection and I was so happy with my experience working with their team. I live in California and could not see the car myself, but James and the rest of the team were able to perform all of my requested reviews and help me purchase the car that ive always wanted. Thank you James and Affordable Automotive Repair.
Great expiernce. Loved getting a text to my phone with updates on my car!
Affordable Automotive is not affordable! They estimated repairs on my car $2125 this included a 10% discount. I found another Fredg garage for the exact work, warranty, etc at $1355. A $770 savings!!! And they did an excellent job. I had a timing belt total kit replacement with coolant flush and water pump, new belts etc, front brakes and rotors replaced, tune up with replaced spark plugs, and a 4 wheel alignment done. What a joke AA charges this much!! Ill never go back, and Im referring all my friends and family to this garage I used. Bye, bye AA!!!
