Map sensor repair
Hello Everyone, I would like to share my repair experience with foreign auto repair service: Both Glenn & Lisa were consummate professionals during the entire process of troubleshooting my diesel Range Rover. They kept me abreast on the entire process, provided a thorough photo of all the work provided with photos of the work conducted allowed me to use their car while they repaired my car which is above and beyond generous. Glenn kept me posted through txt messages daily. They isolated the problem, worked with the warranty company on the repair cost ensured I understood what I was responsible for on the repair cost and returned my car back repaired. Thank you for the great service it’s appreciated. I will be back hopefully not to soon but when needed I will entrust you to work on my again in the future. Joe V. ??

5 Star Service and Staff
My cars and I have been going to see FOREIGN CAR SPECIALISTS for years and years....I have NEVER been disappointed. The service is top-notch, and you can trust them implicitly - they do not inflate estimates or issues, do the work they say they will, and will look out for you and your car.......I only wish I could give them 6 stars!

Family Friendly Repair Shop
Foreign Car Spec. was recommended by a friend..and the services was amazing...my Outback was not getting good fuel mileage and had serious vibrations from the front..My mileage improved by 3 mpg and vibration is all gone...replaced front rotors and balanced tires makes a difference... I really enjoyed the friendly family business feel Roberto and Liz

reliable, consistent, and honest service
I've occasionally gone to other garages out of necessity (emergency repairs) or convenience (oil changes/inspection) but for the most reliable, consistent, and honest service you can't beat Foreign Car. Rick and Kevin (when you can catch a glimpse of him) are always a pleasure to deal with, and are both 'car people' in the best way. They know what they're doing and they do it well. Dana H.
