My Dads Automotive is one of best places you can take your automobile to get serviced in all Northern Virginia. Brian (the owner/head technician) has been working on my cars for approximately 10 years dating back to his experience at Pohanka Acura and Mercedes of Arlington (American Service Center). This is a true professional independent establishment where no detail is left unchecked. Brian ensures that your car is correctly diagnosed and explains what work is necessary to fix your car at current time. He also discusses any future work that will need addressing further down the line just so you have that knowledge but dont need to necessarily address at present. Brian does not oversell/upsell work like many shops and dealerships in the area to turn profits. He currently services my two vehicles and all my familys vehicles.(Nine in total). I live in Arlington, VA and I do not hesitate to drive out to Chantilly, VA (or take time off from work) to head out to his shop for my vehicle service. I will continue to highly recommend My Dads Automotive to anyone looking for a clean, honest, professional shop with very competitive pricing. Once you use this shop, you will not take your car anywhere else.

We took our Toyota Prius into My Dads Automotive when we had a brake issue and just happened to be in the vicinity of this repair shop. What an unexpected surprise to stumble upon an honest and responsive automotive repair place! We ended up having a brake issue that was part of a Toyota recall and instead of just telling us what the problem was and charging us accordingly, My Dads thoroughly researched the issue, called Toyota on our behalf, and kept us posted every step of the way on when the repair would be completed. They even called us again one day later to make sure everything was running smoothly. Its service like this that makes me want to take the time to write a Google review. Highly recommend!

This is hands down THE BEST automotive shop in the area. You are dealing with the people that own the business (Brian is the mechanic and his wife is the operation manager), and wants to do good business with their customers. Prices are reasonable (1/3 of dealers, and 1/2 to 2/3 of other private auto shops. On top of that, you get honest advice. They want your happiness and satisfaction, not all your hard-earned money on random things that your car "needs". They also work with you if you have extended warranty for your car. Highly recommend this place to anyone!

I had my Toyota Tacoma fully serviced with an extensive overhaul by My Dads and they were SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than Toyota and used the same genuine Toyota parts. I have no idea why you would go to the dealership. The owner was one guy and he was the actual mechanic. Here you deal directly with the person working on your car, not a receptionist who doesnt know anything and has an attitude like at EVERY Toyota dealership Ive been to. My Dads also stands behind their work longer than the Toyota dealership... I love this place.

I drive 40 minutes from Alexandria to go to My Dads Automotive in Chantilly, Virginia. They do a great job explaining what needs to be done on my car and explaining the differences between what is necessary or not to fix. I highly recommend other people take your car into My Dads to get your work done or at least to get a second opinion on dealership quotes. I saved over $500 dollars compared to what my dealership was trying to charge me for service I did not need.

I have had several great experiences with My Dads Automotive between my 2012 Acura TL and my boyfriends Cadillac. Brian is very knowledgeable, trustworthy, and thorough. They take the time to troubleshoot the issues. My boyfriend had taken his car to three other shops and had his starter replaced twice. Brian was able to find the problem. This is the only place I will take my car. I have highly recommended this place to my friends and family.

Brian is my most trusted mechanic! Most recently he spent an ample amount of time reviewing a CRV my boyfriend was interested in buying. He test drove it, put it up on a lift, and discovered quite a few issues that we never would have known about! Brian saved him from making a $5,500 mistake. Brian is knowledgable, kind, and honest. I will continue to give my business to My Dads Auto for as long as I live in the NoVA area.

Brian has taken great care of me here; above and beyond. I took my 4-Runner there for a complete caliper replacement job...not easy by any means. The job was well done...a 1 day turn-around, and at a price that no one else could touch. I was nervous about the way the car felt after, but Brian went to a huge effort to make me comfortable. I highly recommend going here for your auto service needs.

Wish I could give them 10 stars! I needed a brake job, a coworker referred me to Dads, they did it the same day, AND graciously gave me a ride home, too! Not to mention the awesome customer service, constant communication and updates, and fair prices! Definitely recommending these guys to all my friends and family! Will be back in a couple weeks for my other set of brakes!

My Dads Automotive is the repair faculty I have been looking for. They showed that they genuinely cared about me as a customer, and were completely transparent. This is a departure from the typical dealership experience. I wasnt surprised to receive a follow-up call after my service, to make sure I was satisfied. I will definitely use their services again.

Brian the owner and head mechanic is very knowledgeable and will help you make the right choices in your repairs. My Dads will also give you a full run down on what else is wrong with your vehicle for future reference. Prices are a little high but you are definitely getting the most bang for your buck. And their warranty is stellar.

I wish more car repair shops were like this place. Brian is a stand up guy and is very knowledgeable. This is for those that want their car fixed right without all the BS that goes on at other places, including dealers. They do very good work at a reasonable price. I highly recommend this shop.

Brian was very kind and thorough! He performed a pre-purchace inspection that saved me from buying a lemon. Ill definitely be going back for all of my auto service needs.
