Sam and his team are hands down the best hybrid technicians available. Don't let the size of their small shop fool you- these guys are true experts. They deeply understand every single aspect of how hybrid vehicles work, from the high-voltage battery systems to complex diagnostics. It is incredibly rare to find…
Sam is the BEST! I am currently a college student and was struggling to find somewhere to fix my car at a reasonable price especially with my car being hybrid. Sam did an amazing job of fixing my car and communicating with me about what is exactly wrong with the car. He was honest, respectful and very professional.…
Sam has worked in all 5 of my hybrids and never failed to provide the utmost level of honesty and professionalism. Not many mechanism like him out there especially in the hybrid market.
SAMS auto repair is the best place to get your hybrid fixed at, the fact Sam is always honest and gets the cars fixed quickly and I mean quickly. He is very good business, and I have been coming here for such a long time. He even gave me a good deal for something that would cost me a fortune some where else.
Sam is the most honest and knowledgeable mechanic I've ever met. If you're having issues with your Toyota Prius don't hesitate to stop by his shop. He'll take care of you!
The BEST service you can get!! Sam deserves a lot more credit than what can be put into words in a review. He's honest, trustworthy, and experienced!! I found Sam (like some of you may be doing) through his Google reviews. My 2007 Prius red triangle came on suddenly while I was leaving work and within 2 minutes, I…
The owner of Sam"s Auto Repair was truly a savior for my family. I was helping my daughter move back to NC and hoping we could drive her Toyota Prius home to Raleigh. However, because the Master Warning Light (known as the Triangle of Death) was on, the dashboard lights were intermittently going on and off, and the…
I first met Sam in 2019 as my Hybrid Prius was having problems. Sam is so knowledgeable about the car and was able to pinpoint that I needed a battery replacement. He saved me thousands of dollars by providing a great deal on his services. I have gone back to Sam for oil changes and will continue to go back for all of my car repairs.
Sam is great! I had decided to go to him after reading other people’s Google Reviews. My Prius had flashed a code that prompted me to call the dealership where they told me I had to replace the ABS Actuator and quoted me upwards of $3k. Sam flushed and cleaned the engine and replaced my rear brakes and the pressure…
My car was in a bad condition after a minor cae accident. Sam to great care of my vehicle at an affordable price. I was very impressed with sam's work. I will advice to any prius owners out there to check out Sam's auto repair. I like to call him doctor Prius.
Thank Goodness for Sam!! !! He definitely is a life saver. I was about ready to junk my car and because of his honesty I decided not to. My 2008 Prius was back on the road in no time. His passion and knowledge about hybrid vehicle is amazing. I had taken it to the dealer and what would have costed me $4,500 was…
He went above and beyond and I highly recommend.
Sam's Auto saved my 2008 Ford Hybrid, after I took it to dealership (10k quote to replace hybrid battery) and a 'we can't help you' from a hybrid specialist shop in Austin. SAM is the MAN! Honest, professional, skilled mechanic. Highly recommend.
Sam is a dedicated business man and respects his clients. He is very good at fixing hybrids and warrants his work. He definitely knows the ins and outs of hybrid vehicles. I recommend anyone who loves their hybrid and want to keep it around awhile- use Sams auto for all your hybrid repairs! He is reasonable and affordable too!

He wasn’t like most mechanics where they try to rush u off so you don’t know what they are doing . He actually. Let me stand by so I can see what he was doing . It took no less than 20 min & very…
Professional knows his stuff Hybrids
I went to Sam's thinking I was going to pay a lot of money and have my car in the shop for weeks. Sam found the problem and it cost me less than half the price and took a day! Come to this place if you have a hybrid and have any problems, Sam is a great guy also, super professional!
I was very fortunate to find Sam’s shop. He is extremely experienced, having worked in dealerships in the past. The service and value is far better than the dealership can offer though. Sam knows his way around cars, particularly hybrids, and is quick to diagnose the problem and clear in explaining the options for…
