Paul and Meg provided great customer service and were honest and upfront with my repair costs and timeframe. I highly recommend supporting your local small business repair shop.Thanks to the whole team at Old Ox. I'm never going back to Goodyear!
Great communication and explanations. Reasonable prices.
Quick and friendly service! I’ve been a satisfied customer of Old Ox for several years now. Their customer service is consistently excellent. Shoutout to Meg for keeping this tradition!
5 stars doesn't feel like enough for Old Ox Tire & Auto. I brought in my 2021 Ford Escape Titanium Hybrid for an alignment and left genuinely impressed from start to finish. Shoutout to Paul, who was outstanding. Professional, efficient, and truly went above and beyond. But what really set this place apart was the…
Excellent service and customer service! Replaced wipers.
I was very pleased with the service and reception I received from Old Ox Tire and Auto. I had a number of issues with my car and they were all addressed. They provided me with a comprehensive report detailing the status jf, and services needed for my car.
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.
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!
Always a pleasure to get work done here! They are always efficient and quick with a diagnosis. Meg in the office is wonderful to chat with and really helps explain everything so it’s easy to understand and follow up on. They never try to push you to get work done or add anything extra which is such a relief! Quick…

Meg, Paul and her team are so helpful, fair, and kind! Will only go to them in DC now. Even give good local recommendations for where to eat while I waited!
Meg is always the best! So kind and thorough. I love how I get an inspection report with every oil change at Old Ox. The report made me aware of a fluid leak that's now being taken care of for free by my car manufacturer due to it being under warranty. Meg was great at advising me on how to handle this leak. Paul…
I have the utmost confidence when my car is serviced at Ox Auto. The representatives always provide full explanations of everything that needs to be done as well as the things that are not urgent but will need attention in the future. The attention to detail and professionalism is very much appreciated.
My first time coming to Old Ox Tire & Auto - Washington was a wonderful experience! Everyone I interacted with was so kind and professional, and I trusted that my car was in good hands. I loved how mechanics took photos to show what they were recommending for future visits and they caught a leak in early stages. All…
They are always knowledgeable and trustworthy. They are able to get me in when I am having issues.
Great experience. Reasonable prices and nice engaging staff. Support small businesses like this one!
Appreciate the friendly service, speedy appointment, and clear information.
As always, Meg was super responsive and relayed info to and from the mechanics in a super effective and professional way! Shout out to the mechanic who solved a rattling muffler without costing me an arm and a leg!
Great service and responsive. I had a scheduled appointment that was 3 days out but needed to adjust and do it early. I texted to see if it was possible and received an immediate response. Was able to go in within 30 minutes, dropped the car off around 11:30 and picked it up at 4:30pm already services - oil change,…
Shoutout to Meg and team at OOTA! Was referred by a friend and they have proved themselves to be reliable and honest. Made sure this mysterious gas smell in my 2021 Cherokee was nothing serious, and even did a follow up check at no cost. Grateful to have them as a resource! Would recommend to anyone.
