Service stations service near Bowie, MD

This place was recommended to me by a near by shop which I have gone to in the past since they were not able to service my vehicle at the time. Overall my experience was wonderful. I was greeted by friendly staff who were efficient and professional. The individual assisting me was attentive and he explained things in simple terms since I am not too familiar with service/mechanical issues concerning cars. I would definitely recommend this shop to my friends and family and anyone in need of a quality shop.?

My 2001 Honda Accord needed a lot of work done. Went to the dealer and received an astronomical estimate of over @2000 for everything. My neighbor highly recommended sharing the estimate with Moshe first and so glad I did. He was able to do all the work for $1100. He is honest and professional. The work was done over two days and I couldn't be more pleased. Great independent shop!

Don’t go there for inspection! Jimmy the manager plays stupid to upcharge the quotes. (Claims the paperwork has changed) A 30 min appointment easily turns in 1.5 hours. Jimmy schedules customers for re-inspection when he knows they don’t work. Horrible and dishonest place. Would NOT recommend. (I should have listened to the other reviews. Beware)

RUN!!!!!! RUN AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!!!!!! * REAL CUSTOMER REVIEW * Don't be tricked by the good reviews on this website like I was. I won't try to convince you that they are bad; I will just tell you what happened, and let you the consumer decide. I brought my car into the shop to have some oil leaks sealed. I thought that the price was amazing, and hey what's the worst that could happen? The FIRST TIME I came to pick it up my car, it had been turned from a smooth ride into a lawnmower (metaphorically speaking). I was devastated because the shops owner had told me how great their star mechanic was. I was also confused because earlier that day the owner called, and told me the car was ready. I'm no expert mechanic but anyone who thought this car was ready should have their license revoked. The car rumbled, shook, and shifted funny. Please keep in my mind none of these things happened before this shop touched it. I called the manager who said that they would take another look at it. I was so upset because my car was ruined. I left the car with them, and prayed that the car would be better the next time. The SECOND TIME I came up there the car didn't raddle anymore but now my steering wheel was loose, and shook from side to side. I don't have to tell you how dangerous driving with a broken steering wheel is. I called the manager and insisted that the steering wheel be fixed because why should I have to deal with that if I didn't do it. The following morning I checked under the car and noticed that after $900.00 ($876.00 to be exact) I still had a leak under my car (a puddle to be exact). I took the car in that day and left it with them. About a week and a half had passed by this time; and needless to say this was slowly turning into a nightmare because i was out of almost $900.00 and had no car. My daughter missed a week of school, and I had to drive my girl's car. The THIRD TIME they told me the car was finished

I recently took my Mercedes to this shop for repair because after owning the car for 12 years, I am tired of the pretentious attitudes and high prices of the dealership service department. API is a great alternative. The people who work at API are familiar with Mercedes cars, have the right tools to service them, and are able to get the right parts. Most importantly, they are friendly and make their customers feel valued. I plan to continue taking my car to API for future service needs!

My Volvo broke down near their station and I had my car towed there for repair. Unfortunately the car was not worth fixing but fortunately I came across a great service station. I've since purchased a used Subaru and have had it there for service and couldn't be happier. Brian Ben and their staff are excellent mechanics and extremely honest. If you are looking for a repair shop don't hesitate to give them a chance you will be very happy. Mark V.

I just had my car inspected a few months ago, and the car passed inspection with fkying colors. I had some difficulty registering my out of state car, therefore, the certificate ran out. I took the car to this exxon for a new inspection and all of a sudden there are three issues with it. They immediately starting offering quotes to fix these "issues". Must have thought I was some easy mark from out of state. Besides being extremely rude, I believe they either damaged my car to make money, or made stuff up. See it all the time from shops like this on Dateline, 60 minutes.
