The vehicle was still driving under its own power before being dropped off at Hampton Roads Car Care for a diagnostic. The shop diagnosed it as a loose or skipped timing chain and immediately suggested replacing the entire engine. Instead of approving such a major (and questionable) repair, my mother decided to have the vehicle towed back home to explore our options. When I arrived on Friday, August 2 to inspect the vehicle, I discovered that it had not been reassembled at all. It had been returned with missing bolts, coil packs removed, and crucial components left undone. The next day, I personally went to the shop to demand they put the vehicle back together. They sent someone out around noon, but after "reassembly," the vehicle no longer starts or runs. What was once a running vehicle has now been turned into a 7,000-pound paperweight sitting in my mother's driveway--thanks to the negligence of Hampton Roads Car Care. Based on this experience, I would never recommend this shop for state inspections, repairs, or any kind of vehicle service. This is yet another well-deserved low review for this business.

Fine, they didn't have my size and said it would take three weeks. No problem there. But then Cody grabs the windshield wipers, scans them, and tells me they aren't in his inventory so he can't sell them. I understand policies -- that part wasn't the problem. What set me off was the complete lack of effort to fix the situation. No checking the back, no offering alternatives, no looking up another store, no "let me try something else." Just a flat, dismissive: "I can't sell them to you." That's it. The customer service at the Hampton (Mercury Boulevard) Pep Boys was absolutely disappointing. Cody made zero attempt to help or troubleshoot. I left feeling like my time was wasted and like my business didn't matter. Do better.

They called me after they install the part and said the alternator started blowing black smoke and car would no longer start. After asking more questions the representative said they had nothing to do with the alternator failure and that we would have to pay full price to replace it or have it towed out of pep boys. The total price was nearly twice what was quoted. I would strongly recommend looking at any other shop if at all possible and definitely steer clear if your AD military.

I was hoping to head off a problem before it became major. The next day they told me the transmission was shot and needed replacing and they had located a rebuilt one. The price seemed high so I said I would take it home and weigh my options. Immediately I noticed it would barely go into reverse. This was not an issue before. At first it would not go into 1st but eventually did. I barely got the it back home. They say they just did external diagnostic and nothing with the mechanics. I know there were issues but the before and after was astonishing. I can't be 100% but I also can't rule out that they made sure I would need a rebuild. Also I asked why they could not rebuild in house and they said they are only capable to do 4 speed not my 6 speed automatic. This place left me with a very bad feeling. Another thing after they realized they were not getting the work they told me that they would suggest scraping the vehicle due to some smoke from tailpipe on starting cold. This was never the recommendation when they thought that they were getting the job.

This dealership has always been very pushy with trying to sell their cars. This time I came by to look at a used car. The sales person we had, Luke, was new so he wasn't as pushy as his manager. He was very laxed and honest. It was obvious that he was new there since he was unsure about a lot of our questions but he got them all answered. He wasn't pushy and was very patient with us. But his manager was very pushy and kept pressuring us to sign for a car even when we were unsure. The used car we looked at was initially priced was over what it was worth especially considering damage, the mileage, and the year. We were able to get the price down but I found the listing online a on their website and saw that they initially overcharged us by $2,000 in person compared to their online listing. I brought it up but was told that listings fluctuate. We said we were going to look at another car that was newer for a cheaper price and the manager demanded to see the listing as if I were lying. It was rude of them to do that and completely unnecessary. I ended up showing the listing and the manager proceeded to just trash talk that car rather than focus on the car we were looking at at the dealership. Ultimately I was pressured to sign for the car and was upset that they have a "as is" policy because as soon as I brought it home and had time to inspect it further, there was a crack in the windshield. They didn't even factory reset the car and other phones were still connected to it. They said they cleaned the car before we got it but it was clear someone just sprayed a lemon scent inside and called it a day. The amount of damage I ended up finding in the car made me regret my purchase and the way the lie straight to your face is insane.

Took my F-150 to the dealership prior to moving here to Virginia. I was told by the dealership that my cylinders were down 7%, suspect issue with timing chain and VCTS or cams. They recommended a full teardown and the worst-case scenario was probably an engine replacement. Luckily, I had to move here to Virginia and vehicle was to be shipped, so I put a hold on it or it would have cost me thousands. Glad I took it to Dr. Motorworx, Hampton cause all it needed were 2 VVT replacement, and they didn't tear it down to figure it out. Expert and professionals at their trade. Completely trust, recommend and will continue to utilize Dr Motorworx for engine works.
