    oil change and filter replacement
    Anna S.

    I recently came to Federal Motors on two separate occasions. The first, to get a routine oil change. The second, just a few days later after I got a screw in my tire and also noticed some odd shaking when I braked (when it rains it pours, am I right?). This place has been here for years and is family owned and operated. The owner is a really nice guy with great attention to detail. The oil change was completed within a matter of hours and I also opted for filter replacements. It all came in around $100. When it came to the tire, I was disappointed when the other technician failed to patch the correct tire. He patched the spare instead of the tire with the screw in it which was sitting in my trunk. Despite my telling them this on my way in to drop off the car, it wasn't completed properly and I only noticed once I returned home and had to turn right back around again. That being said, the issues with the brakes and rotors were handled well. The shaking in my car has stopped all together and it was about $600 to fix it all. I compared this against my bill from my other auto shop that did my brakes three years ago and Federal Motors was slightly cheaper. While my second visit was far from perfect given the situation with the tire, I trust that it was just an honest mistake since the spare actually did need patching. I even chatted up a fellow customer in the waiting area who mentioned she'd been coming there for over 25 years and it was the only place she trusted. That actually restored my faith a bit. I'm willing to return to Federal Motors, they seem decently priced and they are a lot closer than my other mechanic. I also really like that they send you invoices by text and you can schedule appointments by text too.

    Very honest. They are able to diagnose the problems correctly, and they are very reasonable.

    My tire light came on. They filled my tires and replaced the tire caps - no charge. How refreshing

    Had them do a snow tire changeover and an oil change. Prompt scheduling and turnaround. Excellent work, fair pricing. Highly recommend.

    This place is great. Super fast and friendly and do a good job. A little pricey, but given how reliable and local they are, always fork up.

I came in for a coolant flush, and from the moment I pulled in, they were professional, welcoming, and incredibly efficient. They took the time to walk me through what they were doing, explained the importance of the service, and made sure I felt confident in everything before getting started. Gabe and Jesse worked seamlessly as a team--quick, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented. They made sure the coolant flush was done thoroughly and correctly, and even checked over a few other things just to make sure my car was running in top shape. I really appreciated that extra level of care and attention. The whole experience was smooth, honest, and actually enjoyable, which isn't something you always expect when getting car maintenance done. If you're going to Valvoline in Brooklyn, I highly recommend asking for Gabe and Jesse--they truly set the standard for great service.

After doing my own research, it became clear that not everything on the list of repairs were safety-related or required by the state. Only after pressing the issue did the mechanic (named Malik) agreed and revised the list, which already raised red flags about trustworthiness of this shop. The experience only got worse from there. I dropped my car off early the next morning, as instructed, and called later in the day to ask Malik when it might be ready so I could arrange a ride. Instead of a simple, helpful response, I was met with outright hostility. When I asked, "Do you expect the car to be ready today or tomorrow?" Malik curtly replied: "Your car will be ready when it is ready." I asked my question a different way. Malik replied with the same exact response, " It will be ready when it is ready" I tried to explain that I just needed an estimate to plan my transportation. Malik responded "What part of what I told you don't you understand?" This level of rudeness and unprofessionalism toward a paying customer is completely unacceptable. Clear communication and basic respect should be the bare minimum, especially when you're entrusting someone with your vehicle and paying for their time and expertise. I cannot in good faith recommend Fell Point Auto to others. There are plenty of competent and respectful auto professionals in Baltimore , Fell Point Auto isn't one.
