Had to come in for some maintenance. I started bringing my vehicle here last year after they…read morereplaced a wheel for me. This occasion I needed to have my brakes done. I made an appointment for 9 am when they opened. Dropped my vehicle off and they quoted me for hours until it would be done. They called me right on time after 4 hours and notified me they my vehicle was ready. Picked it up and it's has been running smoothly. Price is much cheaper than the dealership I used to take it to. Great value for what you receive.

So I dropped off my car here for an estimate on brakes. Rafael was on the phone behind the cashier…read moreregister and did not want my business. He was saying they are very busy and I saw zero motivation by him. Within 2 hours he called me saying I need $800 repair for brake leak, my caliper, brake hose and parking brake motor needs replacing. My pregnant wife went to pick up our car and Rafael started harassing her for $60 diagnostic fee. I would have loved to pay $60 fee had anyone told me about it. Not mentioned even once, when I was there to drop off my car. I refused on the phone. Told my wife to never come there. This is the reason why shops get a bad name. Rafael was on the phone the entire time I talked to him. He doesn't want this job. Took the car to another shop down the road, guess what only thing that was needed to be replaced was a single caliper. $225 job only and they bled the brakes and everything. Avoid this place.

Years ago, I worked with another automotive shop in Howard county far longer than I care to admit to. First it was the poor communication; next, the pricing was getting very expensive; lastly, too many repeat visits for the same issue caused me to find another automotive shop.

Not knowing a reliable repair shop in the Columbia area, I had to search based on online reviews. I tried several shops that all have "front desk service" (including dealers) and none of them really understood and investigated the condition thoroughly. After several months, I realized that my mistake was dealing with middle persons not the real mechanic. The experience has been very disturbing. By chance, my neighbor suggested that I should try out Columbia Family Auto Care in Jessup. Young is the mechanic that owns the shop. He is very experienced and pays interest in hearing out my description of the car symptoms. Now, my Subaru is back on the road with smooth rides. What a good feeling !
