The pricing is worth the level of assurance I received, especially with the warranty and follow-up. I needed my vehicle turned around quickly, and they accommodated my timeline without cutting corners. What stood out most was that I never felt pressured at any point. Instead, they went out of their way in a respectful and professional manner to earn my business. As someone who usually wants a second opinion, I appreciated how they clearly explained what needed to be done, why, and showed proof of the work. They delivered exactly what I needed and got my vehicle back to me on time. I'll gladly continue to bring my business here moving forward.

The staff was incredibly attentive, honest, and welcoming from the start. Even though it's a smaller shop, they have a comfortable waiting area with free coffee, snacks, and water, which was a really nice touch. They took care of my oil change and filter without an appointment and finished in less than an hour and a half. What really stood out to me was their honesty and generosity -- they even told me my next oil change would be free, which I've never experienced before. I've been to dealerships and many other auto service places around the Washington area over the past 20 years, and I can truly say this level of service is rare. This was my first visit, but based on this experience, they've earned my five stars. I'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend them!

    Had my vehicle being serviced at local mechanic and they notified me that the PTU (Power Transfer…read moreUnit) that is part of transmission on all-wheel drive vehicles was leaking badly and needed to be replaced. They did not work on transmissions and advised me to take it to a transmission repair shop. Called the Ford dealership and they told me to replace it would run around $3300. For comparison I called some transmission shops and got ahold of County Transmissions and spoke with Hampton. He told me that it would run $2300 including labor if it needed to be replaced. They had good reviews so I decided to take it to them and save the $1000. Took it there on a Monday and Hampton told me they would have it done in several days. By Friday had not heard from anyone so I called them and was told that it was next in line to be looked at which would be the following Monday. My vehicle had been there five days and had not been looked at. On the following Monday, Hampton called me and said that it did need to be replaced and to replace it would run $3200. This was $1000 more than $2300 as he had initially told me and about the same as what the dealership would charge. Mentioned this to him and he said that the $2300 was for a used PTU that they would get from a salvaged vehicle, and a new one was $3200. He had not told me this when I first called and I had of course assumed the initial quote of $2300 was for a new one. Didn't even know they would consider putting a used one a vehicle because how would you know it didn't have issues. In light of this new information and for the fact I feel it was a bait-and-switch, I decided to take my vehicle to the Ford dealership and have them do the repair. The dealership's warranty on the PTU was much better and I know am getting a genuine Ford part. With an independent shop am probably getting a cheap aftermarket part. If I moved to another city or say was traveling and had an issue with it, I could take my vehicle to any Ford dealership and they would honor the warranty. If County Transmissions had done the work, then I was out of luck. Had to take an Uber back to County Transmissions and pick-up my vehicle and then take it to the Ford dealership. This costs another $50 on top of the $50 Uber charge had already incurred when I took my vehicle there and had to take an Uber to get back home as I live far from them. I opened up my SmartTag GPS tracking app as had placed an Android SmartTag GPS tracking device inside the vehicle awhile back. Was very surprised to see my vehicle had been driven around Vienna and appeared they were using it to run errands as it was stopping at various locations. So in the end I was out $100 in Uber fees, they had my vehicle for a week and nothing was done after Hampton telling me they would get to it in several days, plus they apparently used it to run errands. I would certainly not recommend this company in light of everything that happened. Note: Saw that Hampton had posted a rebuttal on my initial review where he states that the initial quote was an estimate to repair the PTU, but this is not true. The PTU is something that is replaced, not repaired, and he gave me a quote of $2300 to REPLACE the PTU. Plus they didn't need to be driving it around to determine where the leak was coming from since it was obviously leaking when I took it in and it had to be replaced. When I called him on Friday he said they hadn't looked at it yet; however they had been driving it around before that Friday. He mentions that they have a shuttle service and I asked about this but was told it didn't go to where I live.

Cars are obviously complex (they seem to only get more complex w time), but everyone at County was exceptional from the first conversation to the pickup. Saved me easily 90% cost over going to the dealer and no critical components were needed, just the basics first (filter change, additive included in the new transmission fluid) and truck is flawless now. Would highly recommend County Transmissions and will definitely return for anything additional for my other cars.

Said I needed lower control arms (additional $1300) before they could do an alignment. I said no thanks, went elsewhere, and got an alignment for $150 no problem. Side note 1: the truck wasn't safe to drive when I picked it up so I took it immediately to another shop. Side note 2: I called 2x to speak with TJ and emailed as well: no answer. I don't think they're dishonest. I just think they lack the experience to properly diagnose vehicles. Seems like they look at it like "let's see what we can come up with" as opposed to "what needs to be fixed." Finally, every time I called, whoever answered the phone always just said "Hello" like she was answering her home phone. Not very professional. Also failed to mention 3% surcharge for laying with a credit card.

    I WOULD AVOID THIS SHOP if you are looking for an honest and trustworthy mechanic…read more In mid November 2022, after the Hi-Tech mechanic's original diagnosis I agreed to a $6500 repair job to replace a timing chain and sensor that he said was causing the check engine light to come on. After a month of endless excuses as to why it wasn't ready I found out that without my knowledge or authorization they had taken my car to the BMW dealer to fix the damage caused by their "repairs"- and Hi Tech paid BMW $5,467 for those repairs- and then tried to repeatedly hide this fact from me. The attached texts are pretty clear and tell the whole story about how untrustworthy this business was in handling this situation. After having had my car for a few weeks and the mechanic repeatedly telling me how short staffed they were- he claimed the job was done but the vehicle was running rough. Said that after diagnosis they needed to tear down the engine and start the 30 hour repair over because BMW had sent a faulty part and because of this BMW would be paying them $70hr for the labor to redo the job. Sound believable? Another 2 weeks goes by and I'm told that the repair is completed and the car is "running great" but that the car was going into limp mode and that a "computer update" was needed and that they didn't have the equipment to do it but I'd be put on a waiting list for a mobile service. The car had never gone into limp mode previously. The mechanic stated that he had never done a timing chain on my model and had even ordered special tools from Amazon. I should have been concerned then. I then find out from Hi Tech that they had taken my vehicle to Passport BMW for the "computer update" they said it needed- and paid $5,467 ($1865.46 in new parts alone)- not for a "computer update" but to fix damage caused by them not properly completing the original repairs. Why would a shop do this and then try to conceal it? A bent screw on the timing chain cover. Five different engine leaks. And I'm told by the mechanic from BMW that the car will continue to go into limp mode unless additional repairs are completed. Now Hi Tech says those conditions were preexisting. I have attached copies of the receipts of all of the work by BMW that the Hi-Tech mechanic tried to conceal. These additional repairs and parts were never disclosed to me when I went to pick up my vehicle which is also a violation of MD Consumer Protection laws. When I went to pick my car up the Hi Tech mechanic didn't know that I was aware of or had copies of the BMW work that they had paid for and continued to mislead me about what was done to my car. When I questioned the him as to what happened with my car and the additional repairs and why he wasn't being honest with me he cursed me out in front of his Mother -(called me a mother f'er!!!) so I left the business without my car vowing to leave negative reviews every place that I could. He even had the nerve to tell me that I was "in a better place" with all of the new parts. I've also had 2 neighbors tell me about their negative experiences with this shop and the owner's failure to properly take responsibility for issues leading them to stay far away as well. Now I get a letter that says they've added $2000 additional for storage and Hi Tech plans to sell my car at auction in 2 days when its still not fixed and they've failed to acknowledge the dealer repairs at BMW. I had been a loyal customer of Hi Tech for years and had even left a positive Google review in the past. I'll leave a review on their Huntingtown location as well since their Facebook page now says they will be selling the Owings shop and their employees and same owners (Thomas Cable family) have moved to the Huntingtown location. The truth and an apology would have gone a long way toward an equitable solution but instead this review will have to do to warn others about how dishonest this shop can be.

    The business messaged me with a seemingly genuine desire to make things right, but the "damage was…read moredone" and I don't know how they could gain my trust again, if ever. Back in Cali, I started working on my own cars because a) I'd end up coming back to the shop because work not done properly, or b) once I have something repaired, another problem would come up as if the shop did something malicious so I could go back to them. If I had more money, I'd probably go to a more expensive place where there'd be a higher likelihood that it'll get done right the first time. But I was broke and would resort to searching for highly rated places, and choosing the most reasonable quote. Fast forward to now, and having to replace a rack and pinion was beyond what I was willing to invest in time and tools, so I went to a shop thinking that I'd find an honest place with someone whom I can call "my mechanic." But I was duped yet again. My message for any business that wants good reviews and repeat customers is: Just do it...right...the first time...and be honest. If you're going to quote a price, make sure it's a price you're comfortable doing outstanding work for and not bait the customer only to do a half baked job, or charge them extra in the end. (Technically, there's supposed to be a signed work order with an estimated price...and they'd have to contact the customer with any changes before work can be completed) Rosie and the rest of the staff seemed like really nice people, and I would have totally gone back....but niceness doesn't overshadow the fact that I wasn't satisfied with the work. Hopefully this serves as a wake up call for them, and as a reminder for other business owners to just do it...right...the first time...honestly, and with pride in your work - knowing that your reward isn't just financial, but that there's satisfaction in knowing that your customer is happy. For now, I'm going to have to go back to fixing/maintaining my own cars , and saving up for any major repairs so I can send my car to a reputable shop with a high number of positive reviews. That, and/or replace my car with a more reliable one with fewer major issues.

The service had a few things I could do, but things that other service centers couldn't do, like a full trans flush, Eurosport has the equipment for. And the dealership price would have been about 25% higher (at least), so the savings were substantial. I am a big believer in keeping up with maintenance, as we tend to drive our vehicles for many years (last car the wife had wore out at 20 years; my last one I finally got tired of after 15 years, but it was running like a top still with 250K miles).

I have not spoken with anyone associated with Eurosport Auto Care nor has the damaged door panel been repaired as stated by the company.

Trust in any business is paramount when dealing with a craft that may not be your own. The blatant lie from Mr. Louis L/Eurosport Auto Care that they contacted the customer and resolved all issues (no issues were resolved) makes this company untrustworthy.
