Tom responded right away and gave me the labor cost, by email, for installing the part. I ordered the part from the dealer. Tom installed it and had it completed the same day. When leaving, he let me know that if I had any further issues with the ignition, to just call and he would take care of it. I will definitely be back for any future car repairs. An added plus is the cost for everything was a third of what I would have paid at the dealership. An excellent experience. He deserves 5 stars for sure.

Lorton Auto brought me out to my car and showed me my brakes pads. They showed me with the measuring tool. I had more pad in the back than the front but both were good. They did a 50 point inspection that contradicted multiple things i paid KIA to do on 7/18 that KiA did not do. This is a trust worthy shop. Again they showed me. My car was where I could see it. They explained in detail & showed me the reading & meter that my brake fluid had 4% moisture. I paid KIA $200 + on 7/18 to do my brake fluid change. Lorton Auto is place from now on.

This one has some background, so stick with me for a minute…read more I own a Hyundai Santa Fe and knew the transmission was starting to slip between 1 and 2, so I took it to my local (Stafford, VA) shop. The guy there refused to work on a Hyundai transmission and sent me to his buddy's Aamco in Fredericksburg, VA. When I got there, the shop confirmed the transmission had finally started to go, and quoted me both a time and a price (for parts only - he refused to quote labor). After quoting me the price, he tried to force me to get a loan from a local bank down the street where it sounded like he had friends (and perhaps a deal). I attempted to use my Aamco credit card to pay for the work and he refused outright. My car sat in his shop for two weeks while he decided whether or not he wanted to take my money until finally calling me to refuse. I called Aamco in Woodbridge, explained that my car needed a new transmission and that the shop in Fredericksburg literally refused to take my money. I also explained that I'd already been out of a car for two weeks and asked if - even though none of that was their fault - I could do anything to get the work rushed. Well. Immediately, Kuba apologized to me for my trouble, told me he understood my frustration, quoted me prices including both parts and labor for various options, and guaranteed I'd have my car within a week. We made arrangements to drop my car off after hours, and my family (I have two kids under 4) drove to Fredericksburg, got the Santa Fe, and dropped it off in Woodbridge that night. The next afternoon, I received a call with their own diagnosis (which was the same, but I appreciate that they looked at it themselves) and a re-confirmation of the two quotes I'd received. My wife and I decided how we wanted to proceed and let them know. They ordered the transmission that evening, and within two days it was in the shop. One day later, the transmission was installed and ready for pick-up. I wasn't able to get there before they closed, and didn't want to wait another day. Kuba charged my Aamco card (the same one Fredericksburg refused to accept) over the phone, locked the keys in the car, and parked it in the first spot in the lot. I picked it up that evening and absolutely was exactly as it was promised. Kuba even waited around after hours to speak with me and explain everything in person, which I appreciated. Everything about my experience was outstanding, and other than having to replace a transmission (which is always painful), it could not have gone any better. Between their honesty, willingness to correct another shop's error, and flexibility I'm a customer for life.

I trusted AAMCO to rebuild my transmission, thinking their "expertise" and national brand meant…read morereliability. I couldn't have been more wrong. Less than 25,000 miles after the rebuild, the transmission failed catastrophically--proof that their work is neither durable nor professional. What made this worse was the customer service. Instead of standing behind their work, AAMCO gave me the runaround, dodged responsibility, and treated me like an inconvenience rather than a valued customer. Calls went unanswered and every interaction felt like they were trying to push blame back on me rather than owning their shoddy workmanship. To make matters worse, each AAMCO shop is privately owned, which means they don't honor each other's work. So if your transmission fails after a rebuild, you're stuck dealing with the same shop that botched the job in the first place. The "nationwide coverage" they advertise is a hollow promise--there's no accountability across locations, just finger-pointing and excuses. A transmission rebuild should last far longer than 25K miles. The fact that mine didn't--and that AAMCO refused to make it right--shows exactly what kind of company they are: one that hides behind excuses instead of delivering quality and accountability. If you value your time, money, and sanity, avoid AAMCO at all costs. Their "service" is nothing more than a costly mistake waiting to happen.

Sure enough, they delivered what I was hoping for and made me a very happy guy! I should also mention that, as the project was progressing, they invited me to eyeball their work and confirm that they were on the right track. And they were, so I was happy to greenlight their wrapping up of the project. All through the process, they were pleasant and accommodating. Considering that this was custom work, I judged their invoice to be quite reasonable. I enthusiastically recommend Tynes Automotive and I plan on returning for automotive mechanical work in the months and years ahead.
