Lightning fast service for the of work I had done
Lovely staff. And the most transparent service ever! They took photos and explained everything. The issues were catalogued red (necessary), yellow (upcoming/ optional repairs), and green (nothing needed), all with upfront pricing. Could not recommend highly enough!! Fantastic shop.
Super helpful and friendly!! I was having issues with my battery and wasn’t able to drive my car. They were able to get me in promptly and got my car back to me in a couple days. They even gave me time to go get my warranty battery replacement, I really appreciated that because it saved me a ton of money. Very…
Great quality and friendly service. An unfortunate accident to my car turned into a positive experience thanks to Meg & team. Lucky to have this auto shop nearby and would definitely recommend! 2026 update: Another car issue and Old Ox stepped up to save the day. Highly recommend for both service quality and overall great experience!
Meg was so professional, informing me of the repairs that were needed. Recommended service was documented with pictures, price and car was completed when promised.
The Team was very kind, diligent, professional with the issues had with My vehicle . Management answered all questioned I'd had in reference to the problem and corrective measures. I was kept informed the duration of repairs. I call myself...A Happy Customer. Thanks to All....
Honest and very good communications
I live in the Brookland / Woodridge area of NE DC. Old Ox has a location right in my hood. My neighbors highly recommend it and they weren't wrong about the amazing level of customer service and the thorough mechanics who work there. Meg was amazing in helping me get the the bottom of all the work my 2011 Subaru…
These guys are great. Always honest, capable, exceedingly communicative, and always willing to do what it takes (and not do what is not necessary). One of my favorite things is the images they send along with their diagnostic tests that show you what it looks like up close to you can make an informed decision…
These guys are phenomenal. I so appreciate how quick and communicative they are. Everything is well documented and they always ask before they do anything. I know they won’t suggest anything unless they would do it to their own cars. I couldn’t recommend them more!
We feel so lucky to have Noah as our Neighbourhood mechanic. He’s able to handle a broad range of maintenance services and fixes- while charging very reasonable rates. Outstanding service. Recommend highly!
The service team at Old Ox are excellent and thorough. Jason and Noah are communicative and honest, and the pricing is fair. Highly recommend!
I brought in my car after battery issues, and the team at Old Ox fixed everything the same day and explained to me what to do in the future if I have any problems. Everything has run perfectly since their service. Would highly recommend!
My favorite shop for car repair ☺️
I have now had enough work done at Old Ox that I feel like I can leave a fair review. Overall, very happy with their work, customer service and speed. Prices are very fair. I have used them for a number of jobs, and everything has held up well. They take the time to explain what’s going on, squeeze me in around my…
I had an emergency with my car not starting. Josh did an incredible job arranging to get it towed there and staying late on a Friday evening to change out my starter and battery. The service was incredible and he communicated everything with me before doing any work. HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking for…
Very good people here. Josh the manager of the shops knows his stuff, they are very communicative and they won’t over-quote you! They saved my car, will recommend 1000 times!
