I highly recommend taking your car to Preferred Automotive! They were honest, timely, and professional when I took my used car in for the state inspection. They do inspections in the morning, so I had to take some time off of work to get in. But they made sure it was done as quickly as possible and were even able to squeeze in the needed repairs the same day! I am very happy with their service, even proving lunch recommendations for nearby their shop. I will be returning for future repairs!

I cant say enough good things about Preferred Automotive. You can tell these people are passionate about what they do, and value their customers. Theyre timely and extremely detailed. Id recommend that anybody looking for an automotive shop go here.

Great communication. The sent me a document with actual pictures of my Honda insight and what was needed categorized by urgency. They repaired my brakes and steering wheel and did a transmission fluid flush. All of this at a reasonable price. Thank you! I will trust them with my car from now on.

These guys are fantastic. Totally trustworthy. When they fix your car they treat you like family and do everything to make sure youre safe and happy in your ride.

They keep my car, which has over 100,000 miles, running like new. They are incredibly knowledgeable and skilled in working with older cars. I was really impressed when they recently were able to get me most of my money back on a repair utilizing an extended warranty available from a tuneup.

I took my 2005 Cadillac CTS to them to get repairedAnd when I say repaired my brake lines re-fabricated,Engine diagnosis along with a couple other things they need to be taken care of that I want my car back to be at a good running luxury car these guys performed that service with five stars as well as re-fabricating the brakes and telling me items that Needed to be worked on and I will do business with these guys again

Amazing! By far one of the best automotive shops Ive been too. They are well documented in their inspections and are very well knowledgeable. I love how the inspection report is digital and includes what and why they recommend services to be done. They even include photos on some items. I had my transmission worked on, and while pricey, they made it worth every penny. Their prices are competitive with quotes to other places I reached out with. Ive now had the vehicle for a few weeks, and it drives perfectly. They are well knowledgeable and arent trying to sell you on the unnecessary. If you have any questions just give them a call! After you finish speaking with them, youll know exactly why I speak so highly of them. I will bring my vehicle back undoubtably for my maintenance and repairs. Their customer service is amazing! Their technicians are knowledgeable. Their prices are competitive. Why are you still reading this? Give them a call!

Gary and his team were very helpful, courteous, and provided fantastic customer service. Zero pressure for services. Would highly recommend and definitely plan on returning in the future.

They are amazing! Great service from the start. Ive never felt more comfortable at a mechanic before. Not only do they text you a link of everything they found wrong, but they even add explanations and pictures.Cant afford it? They will chat with you an work within your budget. It was incredible how Todd easily worked with us in saying what can wait and what needs to be fixed now.Not to mention Gary followed up with us after we left to make sure the car was running well.Amazing service! Will recommend to everyone.

I did a pretty-sales inspection at Preferred Automotive. They accommodated this service in their schedule without advance notice. The inspection revealed services that need to be done right away and others that ca be prioritized, making easy to budget and plan car maintenance. One of the most impressive aspects of the inspection was the report. It contained photographed and pictures to illustrate the findings, along with photos/pictures of what these parts should look like.This inspection facilitates the selection and purchase of used cars using an educated approach to it. It also facilitates the price negotiations.Awesome!

I first came to them last summer when my brakes needed repairs and they were very mindful and helpful to explain what exactly needed to be fixed and what was optional! After my positive experience from last summer, it felt like second nature to just go back this year for my annual check up.

Best Mechanic in town! They literally go above and beyond for their customers and have great prices!

My family and I have been coming to Gary and Todd for years and they treat us like family. They are honest, straightforward, and fair. I will continue to bring my car there and any cars I have going forward. Can’t recommend Preferred Auto enough!

The engine light in my truck came on while I was driving. I went into a panic attack. I called the right away and followed the instructions they gave me. They checked my car a couple of times and the light was off. The couldn’t find anything wrong with my car. They were honest and told me that they couldn’t do work or charge me for something they didn’t have to do. Their honesty earned the 5 starts. They earned my business for the rest of my life. Thank you!

Everyone at Preferred Automotive is incredibly talented, knowledgeable and friendly. I have gone to them for years, and have never been steered wrong. They always break down the initial needs for my car, prices, and make it easy to understand. When I got my new car I took it to them for the inspection and when I needed maintenance recently they handled it quickly, efficiently and all around amazing! I also felt very safe with going in during the pandemic because their business was extremely clean and everything was safe/up to county regulation. Thanks!

A great place to take your car. Detailed reports. Trustworthy. Highly recommended.

THE BEST!!!! So amazing, that I am still here and couldn’t wait to post my review. And btw, I very rarely write reviews. My car was shaking really bad when I would hit 65 miles an hour…I have been to two different places and both did not help me at all. From the first phone call I was taken care of! I was going on a trip where I would be driving several hours and Mike fit me in the next morning. Gary helped me the next day and went out of his way making phone calls to get matching tires and even called his son to pick them up so that I could leave on time minus the shaking:-)…he gives new meaning to customer service!! Thank you all at Preferred Automotive for going above and beyond!

Very friendly and thorough. I will gladly keep bringing my car here.

Had my car towed to Preferred Automotive. Decided to choose this mechanic shop just based on the reviews, since I dont live in the area anymore. And Im pleased with the outcome. Lately I havent had any luck when it comes to finding a good mechanic shop, and I feel this time I a got a good job (repair) done with my car here at Preferred Automotive. Todd was very nice and provided me enough information for me to understand what went wrong with my car👍👍

I recently purchased a used vehicle and wanted to ensure it was in good working order. Preferred Automotive did not disappoint. Gave a great breakdown of items that were in excellent condition, as well as recommended upcoming servicing needs based on mileage. Todd and Gary were professional as always. The nominal fee to know the state of the vehicle was well worth it.

I wouldnt even think of going somewhere else!

I recieved excellent service from the teamat Preferred Automotive. Prices were fair and Todd took the time to walk through multiple scenarios with me. I highly reccomend this shop to anyone!!

Gary, Todd, and the entire Preferred Automotive crew were great. They were super efficient, thoroughly explained what my car needed, and were able to get me back on the road quickly. And my car has been driving well since. Highly recommend them for any automotive needs!

Some friends and family recommended preferred automotive to me for automotive services. I was hearing noises from my truck recently, so I decided to take it in for service. These guys couldn’t have been more professional, honest, and the service I received was done in a very reasonable amount of time. I would highly recommend them!

Excellent customer service! First rate all around.

Always been very happy with their service, they go above and beyond. One time there was an issue with my my scheduled windshield repair (their glass guy hadn’t come in) so they bought me lunch while I waited for my other repairs and then scheduled the window guy to come to me so I didn’t have to take off work. I recommend them to everyone I know.

Great experience. They have a great inspection form and very clear explanation for everything they are recommending. Will definitely be using them in the future. Very happy with my experience with a very friendly team!

Ryan is a good guy. Followed him from a previous shop. Good worker. Very professional. Has maintained my cars very well throughout the years. Recommend this shop to anyone!

If you are searching for excellent car service, this is the place! The personnel are knowledgeable, fair dealing, and friendly. I have been a customer for several years and they keep the car running like new!

We have been taking our cars to Gary and his team for several years now. They have never failed to provide uncomparable service, with fair and clear rates, as well as detailed descriptions of proposed work. And most importantly they keep track of what our car services our car has had done and what it needs and have always kept an open line of communication via phone text and email.Heres another small but huge thing for me: a few years back my daughter and I were on vacation and had an issue with my cars starter. We were 4 hours away from Preferred but I called them anyway. I spoke to Todd (a dream!) who quickly diagnosed the issue over the phone. Because they keep such accurate records of our vehicle he was able to tell me when that part had last been addressed and explained why it may have been an issue now. He even offered suggestions for how to find a reputable shops for the repair as well as parameters for a fair pricing.How is THAT for service?We have referred many friends and neighbors to Preffered and will continue to do so. I cannot say enough good things about them.

Gary and the team at Preferred Automotive were incredibly responsive and reliable. I asked them to fit me into a tight window because I was waiting for a family member’s medical appointment and they did. They found an issue and got me back in the next day. And they even submitted a warranty claim for me on my brakes and sent me the check when it came in so the added issue was fixed for free. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for reliable and honest service.

Our 2001 Sportrac cranks but won’t start. Preferred Automotive replaced the fuel pump and fuel filter. They recommended replacing the Mass Air Flow sensor as well. The engine starts and runs smoothly now. They also found the source of the slow leak of engine coolant. They replaced that. They checked the truck all around and made good recommendations. I’m a first time customer. I’ll take my truck to them again for knuckle busting jobs I can’t handle on my driveway. Thanks Todd and Gary.

Looked at ratings for local repair shops when I knew I needed a brake job and noted that Preferred had excellent references on multiple platforms. Had an excellent conversation with the owner when I dropped off my car - primarily talked about our personal interests but also about the next steps. Got a call the next morning (I dropped off late the day prior) outlining the recommended services along with a report that showed the status of 50+ services with pictures and links to articles that explained why they were needed. I hadnt done anything on my car since I purchased it 3 years ago except bring it in for oil changes do it wasnt a surprise that other services were needed. I would rather have this done by a local garage than a dealership, which is typically very expensive. Happy with the results, car was washed before I picked it up, expect to use them for our other vehicles as well.

The best automotive service ever!!

The work that they performed on my car was excellent. I definitely would recommend this place. Thank you so much!

Preferred Automotive never disappoints. They keep the 4 cars in my extended family in good shape and I can always trust them to do what is needed, and not to do things that are not needed.

My car was making a noise near the driver seat area so I scheduled an appointment with Todd at preferred automotive for a diagnostic. The shop only gives morning appointments if you plan to wait. The Mechanic Alex took 2 thorough hours to do the diagnostic. Todd provided me with the updates that Alex provided in a detailed report with pictures for everything that was inspected and checked in my car. I really liked the visuals since you can see what work needed to get done without the uncertainty. Also the report was set up based on urgency of repair which is great. I agreed to repair the following necessary work: battery replacement, engine filter replacement, coolant cap replacement, and the front metal piece near my front tire since it was causing the noise near my driver area. I have been driving my car for the past three days and so far so good. I appreciate the work and detail this shop provides and I recommend it for its level of detail and service.

Thea guys shoot straight and always do great work on our cars, been using them for about five years and its always a good experience.

Excellent customer service, dealership quality diagnostic and repairs without the dealership prices. I trust the professionals at preferred Automotive to keep my high mileage 2007 Honda Accord running, until the completion of my Dave Ramsey plan. At which point, I will turn over the maintenance my next car to preferred Automotive’s professional care.

Gary and all the wonderful men at preferred automotive were amazing. They were not just professional but kind. I love how they take pictures of what needs to be done and are also more then willing to explain what needs to be done even if it is multiple times for someone who does not know anything about cars like me. I highly recommend taking your car to Gary and his amazing staff. Thank you for everything

Great experience and customer service. would definitely reccomend!

I’d like to thank the Guys over at Preferred Automotive, once again for the spectacular job they’ve done on my vehicle. Total satisfaction is how I feel when I go to pick up my car, they’re thorough with finding the problem and thorough with fixing the problem. This is my second car that I brought to Preferred .they are kind n courteous from the time u walk in the door till the time you leave and all I can say is to the Guys up front to the Guys in the back . You Guys rock at Preferred

I find going to the auto shop/mechanic and getting my car fixed rather stressful. I feel like there aren’t many in the area that can be trusted for good, thorough service and to give you honest/informative feedback on the work that your car needs without extremely overcharging the customer.I was recommended to go to Preferred Automotive for a second opinion on work my car desperately needed. I was really frustrated and nervous because I didn’t want the same same runaround I was experiencing from a bigger named auto shop. However, once I received the complete rundown of what my car needed (it’s old too) and going over the diagnostic with Todd, I felt confident that my car would be fixed and would be in good hands. I was also afraid of the cost but having the ability to see and read what work my car would need (they provide a virtual report), made Todd’s explanations of what was urgent vs. what would could be done later, much easier to understand and feel confident in that the car was getting the best service. The work I needed to get done was pricey but my car is driving much better and I feel safer in it since I picked up a few days ago, after it being serviced at this shop.I highly recommend this shop for complete, clear and thorough service & diagnostics. They also vacuumed my rugs and washed the exterior, which I’m very thankful for especially since I haven’t had it cleaned since March! Plus if you’re feeling nervous about Covid-19, they are very CDC standard complaint. Thanks again Todd & Gary :)

Been going to Preferred Automotive for almost three years now. Service is always quick and courteous. They always take the time to explain what went wrong and how they will fix it. Definitely have a piece of mind that my car is well taken care of.

Staff were very friendly and polite. Prior to making repairs to my car, they sent me a detailed report, which they took time to go through with me. They were not pushy at all, and the prices seemed very reasonable. They also washed and vacuumed my car when it was done, and took the time to check in with me a few days later to see how the car was doing. I was very happy with the customer service, and I will definitely be going back!

Gary did an awesome job! I brought my car here to have the breaks fixed, and he was able to do it very quickly. Will certainly be coming back whenever my car needs service!

Great same day turnaround after calling them one morning. I had to get the locking wheel bolts taken off, since the key was lost. They also asked if I would like them to perform a thorough going over of the car. I chose to add that service and I now know what will be needed on our old 93 Lincoln in the near future for it to be safe and perform as best as it can. Thanks guys!

Great experience. Quick response and speedy service. The effort and detail that was put into the proposed work and estimate was incredible. They actually show and explain the issues, not just tell you what needs to be done.

I found Preferred Automotive online while searching for a business to reliably do a transmission flush; once I saw their reviews I stopped searching and called to make an appointment. They were wonderful - sent people to pick my car up and then returned it that same day. Their knowledge, repair work and customer service were everything the online reviews promised. I especially liked that they sent a report detailing both urgent and recommended services for my vehicle, then called to discuss these with me without pressuring me to have any of those services done immediately by them. I have already recommended Preferred Automotive to friends, and will certainly be returning there in the future.

Very happy with my decision to take my car to Preferred Automotive. My vehicle was having some serious issues with my driver side wheel and needed attention. In my mind, I thought I was only getting an inspection done before making an appointment to fix the issue like most places, but to my surprise, Preferred Automotive and there great team got right to work. They came to me with only facts and what needed to be done. Not like experiences in the past where people are trying to take advantage of a customer. Not only did they get my car back to excellent condition, they recognized a ordered part was not up to there standards and personally went out to switch it. Preferred Auto and the guys running the shop are excellent and I am confident to say this is where I go for now on.

The Preferred team were fantastic. When I called about an oil change and minor tune-up, they were able to squeeze me in almost immediately and did a great job describing the work they were doing. They shared a complete diagnostic and were honest but not pushy about the long-term maintenance work that needed doing. Highly recommended.

Received quick service & friendly staff.Quick turnaround.Great organization.

Preferred Automotive is our preferred car service place to go! We have been going there for a year now and the business and it people are all about your customer satisfaction and car needs! Definitely the right place for both of our vehicles!

These guys are masters of their craft, and always friendly and courteous despite the current pandemic.

My truck broke down on the way home and this is the first shop I cam across. Towed it there and they had it fixed in a couple of days. Turns out transfer case went bad. Guys gave me a quote and fixed it correct the first time. Very direct and straight forward people. Also I am my own mechanic and I do my own work, due to me being out of town and not having my own equipment I never take any of my vehicles to shops, but In this case I am not home. I am glad I came across Preferred Automotive and highly recommend these guys to fix your vehicles!

I moved to the area last year and I was worried about finding a good repair shop. Everything about my experience here was excellent! I got a thorough and detailed report of exactly what was wrong with my car, and Todd went over it with me again on the phone. Unfortunately I ended up needing a new car, but they let me know the extent of my car’s damage before they started working on it and ended up saving me a lot of money! They were very fair, and I never felt pressured or overwhelmed. Will take my car here in the future, and highly recommend it overall.

I first brought my VW to Preferred because my sister had such a good experience with them; they were able to fix her cars AC when other garages couldnt figure out what the problem was. Everyone at Preferred that I talk to is helpful, knowledgeable and explains things in a non-condescending way. This last time they were especially great. I needed expensive repairs for a water pump, but because of a regular maintenance coolant flush, I had an extended warranty that saved me $735. And because they keep excellent record of the work they do on your car, they were able submit all the paperwork for me. Long story short, I highly recommend them.

I have had many great experiences with Preferred Automotive over the years, and it is good to see the service has not changed. It was great back in the early ’90s with my first car the detail to doing the job right for an affordable price. It is great to see all these years later; those skilled hands are still at work. It goes to show the people of Rockville are well-taken care of for years to come. Thank you for doing great work in a short amount of time.

I have been coming to Preferred Automotive for the past 5 years. Everytime the service has been excellent and prices has been fair. Todd and Gary always did a great job of explaining to me what was needed and what benefit it contributed to my vehicle. I would recommend anyone looking for a great automotive shop to check them out!

Honest and professional work. I have taken my vehicles here many times for servicing, and was very happy with the work.

These guys are great - knowledgeable, personable, professional and always do a fantastic job on my minivan! I love the texted report I received explaining each service and why it is important. It also reported things that were in good condition and things that could be put off and when they are usually performed. It gave me a clear explanation with actual pictures of my car’s parts so it was easier to communicate. I don’t usually need it back right away, but this time I had somewhere to go and they got it all completed in time. My car doesn’t make any weird sounds anymore and drives like it’s new again!

Just move to Rockville a year ago and didn’t know where to go and who to trust. I’ve got a few things worked on an always been able to count on them. Made me feel like family. Mani

I can’t say enough positive things about these guys. If you’re looking for honesty and exceptional service, this is the place. They are friendly, communicative at every step and check all the boxes. I won’t take any of my vehicles to any other shop!

I have always had a great experience at Preferred Automotive after multiple visits. They make honest recommendations without pressuring you to add unnecessary repairs to your order. Great experience each visit.

Management on site, personable and up-to-date with technology to communicate repair recommendations and follow up. They are personally invested in their customers well being and successful

Great communication and trustworthy professional service. I’ve been bringing my Jeep here for over a year and will continue to.

I am so pleased with the service,they are very welcoming,pleasant,I had problems with my brake for 2 years,the dealership could not fix,they fixed it,explained to me the details etc they are very honest not pushy, I highly recommend

Gary and Todd are extremely professional, friendly and always have an open ear. They want to do the best job they can for you, that’s obvious every interaction you have with them. I’ve been a customer for more than seven years, and won’t take my cars anywhere else .

Excellent, highly professional service for a reasonable price.

Gary and his team were professional, communicative, and knowledgeable. They were straightforward with the evaporator replacement that I needed and would gladly return to them for future repairs. I 100% recommend.

The guys are great to work with and very reliable. The shop is convenient to Twinbrook metro and biking trails. Ask for Gary.

I have always had a great experience at Preferred Automotive after multiple visits. They make honest recommendations without pressuring you to add unnecessary repairs to your order. Great experience each visit.

They are always very kind and helpful

Have been going to Preferred Automotive for decades...would not take my car anywhere else.

I couldnt be happier with the level of service and care provided. In addition to taking my car in despite being a busy day, they did their best to have the car ready for pick up at the end of the day. They offered me a ride home and back to get the car, so everything worked perfectly. High recommend this super neat, friendly and reliable place!

They were great. Todd was so helpful and I was able to get my car back the same day despite some additional issues.

Gary and the team at this Preferred Automotive location have always treated my wife and I with respect and have always been straight forward with what our services entail!

Gary and his team were great. They solved the problem quickly and were very communicative. Fantastic service at a reasonable price.

Great service, polite, and knowledgeable of work. Schedule repairs and completed in timely manner.Thanks!

Gary and his team at Preferred Automotive provided me with outstanding professional service! They are very detailed in their explanations of required work. They also dont try to force a customer into doing the recommended work.

Preferred Automotive not only provides high quality mechanic & customer service (while maintaining COVID precautions), but they also have THE most technologic bells & whistles of any other shop that I have patronized. Their work estimate was VERY detailed & included pictures! I highly recommend them.

I first took my car to Preferred Automotive because it was convenient to work as I could just walk. But, I return because they are dependable, trustworthy, cost effective and have state of the art equipment. They communicate the repairs that need to be done by sending a link to a detailed report that includes pictures of the broken part. My husband is a very skeptical person, so this standard allows him the pleasure of knowing our cars are being taken care of. Our car has had major brake repairs over the past year (it is over 150,000 miles, and we were negligent prior to using Preferred Automotive). When we needed additional work done, Preferred Automotive went above and beyond in order to ensure that it was done under warranty! It was a huge pleasure to receive money back for a car repair!! This never happens at other garages! They are so very friendly and truly understand how no one wants to spend money on car repairs! I highly recommend using them for all of your car needs!

Preferred automotive not only gave me a great service, they make you feel welcome and actually have true knowledge of what they do! I wish more places were respectable and professional as Preferred automotive

These guys deserve every 5 star they receive - outstanding customer service, honest work, and good conversation.My 2002 Jeep Cherokees starter went out when I was on Rockville pike getting breakfast around 9:30am. Called and had it towed to the closest shop I could find, which happened to be Preferred Auto. I explained to them that I lived in Leesburg, VA and did not have any other transportation back home other than my Jeep. They told me they would do everything they could to have the Jeep fixed by time they closed at 5pm.I went back into the shop around 4pm and said I would take my chances and wait. They said they would do my starter right now so I can get back on the road and drive home that same day. I waited in the waiting room and chatted with Gary and Todd. At 5pm they pulled the Jeep out of the bay and gave me the keys and I made it home like nothing even happened.Thanks so much Gary, you guys are awesome.Chadwick Conry

I have been going to Preferred Automotive for four years, and I have never had a bad experience. They provide honest recommendations without suggesting unnecessary services. Preferred treats you like a friend, not a source if income.

Preferred Automotive is great! They are honest and always make sure to do the work that is most necessary for our car and that will help our car last the longest it can. Additionally, they are always friendly and provide a welcoming environment. We highly recommend them!

They did a complete detailed analysis of my vehicle. It was going to cost over $7000 to do work on my car. In reality the car only needed $1500 worth of work. Their prices are exorbitant. If you you want to get ripped off go here.

Have taken my 4Runner and my husband’s Mini there for many years. They always manage to fit me in when urgent and are extremely trustworthy and fair with pricing. Love Gary and his team!!!

I want to say that Preferred Automotive did a Superb job on my car. I took my car to them for a transmission fluid change a few months back and mentioned that I wanted a certain transmission fluid to be put in. The crew at Preferred automotive did exactly what I wanted them to do and they got the job done very well. I would recommend them to anyone who has car problems as they are honest, know what they’re doing and do things right the first time.

I have been a loyal Preferred Automotive customer for decades. Gary, Mike and Todd always go above and beyond in providing excellent customer service. I trust their honesty and workmanship and they have demonstrated that they really care about their customers. I especially appreciated it when my teenage children brought in their cars for service and my teens came away with not only a fixed car, but in addition, a free education on the basics of how to stay safe on the road and properly take care of a car. Thank you for keeping our cars on the road over many years!

Fast and accurate.

Gary was very accommodating. I called them Thursday evening to get a second opinion on some brake issues. They fit me on Friday morning and did a quick check-up. They explained everything and fixed the problem the same day. They take their time to make sure I was informed about the issues in my car. They did not add unnecessary fixes, made me trust them with my car maintenance. Gary also checked up on my car on Monday. Gary and Todd were very friendly with everyone who came while I was there. They have a new customer.

I can’t say enough great things about Preferred Automotive! In the years that I’ve owned a vehicle, I have never experienced the professionalism, courtesy, customer service, and quality work that I got when I came here. Their level of communication with customers is impeccable, and I felt sure that my truck was in good hands. I’m so glad to have found a mechanic that I can trust. Would recommend to anyone and everyone.

Ive worked on my own cars - and though Im no pro, I know a little bit about what Im talking about. I also know a bit about mechanics, and how hard it is to find trustworthy people who do great work. Ive seen all types. The people at Preferred are exceptionally professional, polished, clean, and, yes - they really, *really* know what they are talking about. They are respectful, educated, capable people; I rarely say this, but Im completely impressed with the service I have received from these guys. They truly care about their reputation, and they truly care about your car. Highly highly recommend Preferred.

They were a bit pricey, but their customer service was on point and they got me and out... & even text me when they were done...

If youre reading reviews and trying to determine where to bring your vehicle, your search has ended. Preferred Automotive is a professional, honest shop. Gary and Todd do a great job of explaining the rationale behind recommended repairs without applying pressure. Highly recommend!

Thank you to Preferred Automotive for a great car service experience. This team is professional, proficient, courteous, and dependable. I highly recommend them to friends and family.Took a second family car to Preferred Automotive and enjoyed another stellar car service experience. The team performed all the work we requested and provided us with a requested list of services that should be done. Thank you so much!!UPDATE: Our third appointment went as well as our first two. These Guys know their business!! Thanks for the excellent service!!UPDATE: The Tater Tot (my new car) loved her first visit to Preferred Automotive! She had her oil and filter changed and her tires rotated. Her Mechanic also pulled a screw from one of her tires and plugged the hole. Im sure shes feeling looked after and taken care of now!

The guys at Preferred Automotive went above and beyond. I came here as a first time customer because of good reviews and I didnt want to keep taking my car to the dealership. I called in to discuss my car problems and they were able to fit me in the next morning. They quickly looked at my car and diagnosed the issue, even providing me with warranty information to get the fix covered by the dealership so I would not have to pay out of pocket. I took my car to the dealership and the terms of quality and customer service was night and day compared to Preferred Automotive. The issue turned out to be a problem caused by the work the dealership had performed when I last took it in. This solidified my decision that I made the right choice in choosing a different mechanic. I will continue to bring my car for all its future maintenance.

TLDR: They are honest and competent. My perception is that they have enough business to not feel any pressure to sell work that is unnecessary and not in the best interests of the customer.I left my car in their care on the recommendation of both my brother and my wife. My brother selected this place due in large part to their online reviews/reputation.My car had been making a rattling noise and so I took the car in to be serviced. I received a call a short time later letting me know that they had identified where the rattling noise was coming from and a few other maintenance items I should consider taking care of while the car was in the shop. Which is pretty standard in my experience.When I picked up my car the front desk agent took me through the work done and the attendant charges. When I asked questions I received thoughtful and thorough responses. After some probing I realized that they could have recommended more work and thus increased their fee but had chosen not to because they did not feel it was necessary or in my best interest.I think that if I had not asked additional questions I would not have found this out. I attribute this to a culture of honesty as a matter of routine. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants honest and competent mechanics.

Gary and crew bring integrity to an industry to an industry so vulnerable to and a reputation of abuse. They say what they need to do, and no more. They will work with you to prioritize and schedule the services so you don have to do everything at once. Being able to trust their word and their work takes an enormous amount of stress from car maintenance.
