Another exceptional Beckley experience. Needed my M3’s new suspension dialed in, ride height set and aligned perfectly. They crushed it. Car sits great, stance is exactly what I wanted, alignment to the specs I requested. Jon was my SA, outstanding as always, this kind of customer experience is why I always go back.…

We use Beckley exclusively for our car repair and maintenance. I drive a 2015 Mercedes ML350. My wife a 2016 Buick. Domestic or foreign made, they know what they're doing. Knowledgeable, honest, reasonable prices, and the same people work there year after year. You get to know them and that's nice. It really is a great shop.

Great company to work with. I have brought 2 of my cars here and they do a great job. The last issue I had was a serious vibration at highway speeds. I thought for sure it was a control arm, or something seriously broken in the suspension but it turns out it was mud and gravel dust caked on the inside of the wheel.…

Beckley’s crew take the time to thoroughly explain the services needed (respectful and honest) and have always been able to help in a pinch with urgent repair/service— with an older BMW we are in there a lot! We really appreciate having a consistent place to take our vehicle to.

I've been using Beckley for years starting from when I had my VW. Even though I no longer have it I still go to them with my Kia and wife's Jeep. In fact my Kia has never been to the dealer for service, I've only taken it to Beckley.

I am so glad Beckley Automotive was recommended to me. At Beckley, you can actually speak with someone who can tell you exactly what your vehicle needs, what was done and what the results were. It was easy to schedule and they got me in right away. And, for me, the location can't be beat! I am so so happy I found a new place to get my Prius tuned up!
