These guys always fix my problem, frequently coming in way under what I would expect to fix it, frequently telling me it's not a big deal don't worry about it, and when it is a big deal, fixing it perfectly. Cannot recommend them enough.

I’ve been going to Moe for about 3 years now. I usually only ever need an oil change, but they’ve checked my breaks/rotors and done other minor work on my car.

Super nice people, took great care of my car, feels so hard to find a trustworthy garage these days. Will definitely be coming back for any future needs!
I stop by because having few issues with my car and immediately took care of it, in other places asked me double price for the same matter, very helpful the owner, reliable and trustworthy, I found my new mechanic in DC, since just moved from Florida, amazing customer service
Great experience. Nice guys. Saved me about $300. Same day service. Quick. Professional. They just want to make a comfortable enough living and I felt like their prices are fair. I use to shop around just for comparison and they kept having very competitive rates and I get to simplify my life by having my car guys…

I’ve been going to Moe for about 3 years now. I usually only ever need an oil change, but they’ve checked my breaks/rotors and done other minor work on my car. Today, I needed my oil changed and wipers replaced. My car was finished within an hour and they also repaired the rubber liner on my windshield that was coming loose, free of charge. I never overpay there. Never feel like I’m being scammed. Very friendly, professional guys who do great, fast work. If my car ever needs more serious work, I’d take it to them without thinking twice.

I got a flat tire on the way back to MD and pulled into this shop. Mo and his father were incredibly helpful and got everything done quickly for a great price! It’s a family-owned business that genuinely cares about their customers and is very trustworthy. I would definitely drive back down here again just to be serviced by them

I’ve had two really great experiences with Moe and the team at Capital Auto Care. They were able to quickly figure out what was going on with my car, explain the issues clearly, and get everything taken care of faster than I expected. The price was very fair, the service was professional, and most importantly, I left feeling confident that my car was safe for my family. It’s hard to find auto care you can really trust, but Moe and the team made the whole process easy. I’d definitely recommend Capital Auto Care to anyone looking for honest, affordable, and high-quality service in Friendship Heights and across the entire Washington DC area.
