I have an old finicky car that I will only take to Tenleytown Automotive. I love the professional, common sense approach, good advice, the lack of hard sell on unnecessary repairs, the reasonable price and friendly service.
I had an excellent experience with Tenleytown Automotive and can highly recommend them. I came in specifically to get a second opinion on a fairly major repair that had been recommended for our car. They took the time to do a very thorough inspection, carefully explained what they found, and gave me an honest…
I had a great experience with Mike at Tenleytown Automotive. He was straightforward and honest about the repairs I needed and why, explaining each part in an easy-to-follow way, and his whole team was friendly and professional. I will definitely be returning in the future - thankful to have a DC mechanic I trust!
Just moved to the area and needed to have some work done on my car. Mike and his team were incredibly communicative throughout the whole process, going over every single finding, how urgent they were, and outlined the cost breakdown super clearly. Had a wonderful experience and will definitely be going back again for all future car needs!
Five stars without hesitation. I came into Tenleytown Automotive without an appointment after discovering a flat tire, and they were still kind enough to fit me in right away to patch and reinflate it. While I was there, I asked them to take a look at the oil since I honestly was not sure when it had last been…
Everyone at Tenleytown Auto is so kind and helpful and they really take the time to thoroughly explain the services and repairs. They’re also so fast with their work and do an awesome job overall. Been going for over a year and have had nothing but exceptional experiences!
Great experience! Everyone was friendly, knowledgeable, professional. I took it in for an oil change and they went over everything with me. Mike called a couple times with updates and walked me through what they found and worked with me on priorities for this appt. vs. what can wait a bit. Excellent value -- better…
I was looking for a new repair shop, and the team at Tenleytown Automotive did an excellent job. They took their time, listened carefully to all my concerns, and answered each of them thoroughly. They performed a detailed analysis of my car’s condition, and then we sat down to discuss what needed immediate attention…
Best place in town
Couldn't be more pleased - a relief to find Mike and his team at Tenleytown Automotive. I built and restored cars with my neighbor growing up, so know enough to feel when I'm being taken for a ride. After many states and cities, so happy to find a shop that has clear communication, fair and transparent prices, no…
Very thorough and great work. Took the time to explain everything to me. Happy with the price and attention to detail. Have one outstanding issue planned for a future visit. I will be using them for all my service needs.
Left with feeling they truly care about their customers. Were polite friendly did thorough inspection of my vehicle in for 6 month check up. All was done in timely fashion. I highly recommend their services
Great service and fast. Will go back again.
This is the third time I take my Mercedes-Benz C230S to Tenleytown Automotive. Their estimate reports are very detailed and they work fast. I also appreciate their honesty about any future repairs my car may need. I trust their services 100%.
