Reasonable price, great owner, and nice location…read more Came in for an oil change and to track down the cause of a recurring stall issue with my Volkswagen Tiguan. The mechanic listened, asked good follow-up questions, made sure he understood the problem before drawing any conclusions, and then diagnosed it cleanly. The part arrived within the window he quoted (2-3 hours), was installed without fuss, and the final bill was reasonable. What stood out as much as the technical work: he flagged a slow coolant leak and a minor oil leak -- this is an older car, so neither was a shock -- but there was no pressure to pile on services. He showed me rough estimates so I'd have them when I'm ready and left the decisions to me. That kind of straightforward, no-upsell approach is rarer than it should be. The waiting area is a genuine plus: free wifi, a table big enough to work at, and a small fridge with complimentary drinks, large TV. My one suggestion would be to add a coffee in the AM. Also, the door to the reception currently reads "B". Might want to avoid any confusion with better signage. That said, I am a big fan of this establishment and will be using them for repairs in the future (apparently sooner than I want :) Bonus: he pointed me to a wonderful Indian place across the street, Biryani, which I'd highly recommend if you have time to kill while your car is being worked on.

Their attention to detail for a diagnosis is the best. All while caring enough to keep their cost to me in mind. Being on a disabled person's budget, that is key for me. Professional service done by highly trained automotive mechanics is all they offer in my opinion. If your looking top tier service on your automobile with out being strong armed at the cash register,  Byrds Auto is the place for you.  You won't regret it.

I took my car in for them to locate a fuel leak. After having it for a week and a half they finally…read morefound the time to look at it. They said that they couldn't find a leak, yet it lost almost a quarter tank of gas sitting there. They recommended replacing the fuel pump that was replaced 2 months ago. I picked it up and paid the $50 diagnostic fee. After I got home we realized that the foam gasket was not put back and they stripped one of the screws that hold the cover on. It now does not seal. Now the inside smells even more. I won't go back.

When we picked it up they said "it's in great shape and just needed the coolant line replaced." I drove it off the lot and noticed the air wasn't getting cool. 2 days later, the AC went out completely. We brought it to a different shop and they pulled out the cabin filter which was entirely black and clogged (pictures uploaded). In addition to that, the Freon line had been sprayed at Walton's and had a microscopic hole. The new auto shop said "there's no way they missed this." We called, to obviously voice concerns about the cabin filter not being checked when we asked for an entire overhaul... they said "we never brought it over to our services side"... I'm not sure why they wouldn't do that. I'm incredibly disappointed in the service we were given at this shop. We were told "it's unfortunate timing and a coincidence" it's ABSOLUTELY NOT. It's bad business. I will NEVER return and I will recommend that people do NOT go here ever again. I'm confused and frustrated... come to find out they don't even check transmissions or engines at this shop!! Which was never disclosed to us. Save yourself a world of pain and money and do NOT bring your car here!

Kevin Walton was a good and honest man, who I considered a friend. Since his recent passing his son Jeremy has taken over the family business (where he has worked for many years). It is good to know that whenever I need car repair, or just an inspection or oil change, I can trust Walton's Family Auto! They don't take appointments so you may have to wait an hour or two or leave your car over night to get the work done. They are reliable, friendly, and most importantly in this industry, honest! Thank you Walton's Family Auto for your years of service, I wouldn't go anywhere else!
