We at Coastal Office Products dropped off our 2005 Ford E350 Econoline for check engine light as well as issue of stalling while driving. The service we received was amazing from point of drop off to - Diagnostic to repairs and pickup. Everything was quick as well informative and reliable. We decided this is the right shop to help maintain our van and our 2013 Ford E350 Econoline box truck. Thank you again for helping us.

Heading down to the beach when my engine started overheating and I got stranded. Took my Jeep to 2 other mechanics, the first couldn’t figure out what was wrong, and the second replaced the wrong part. When I took my car to Atlantic and mentioned my situation, they slipped me into their extremely busy schedule, fixed my car day of, and did it for a very reasonable price. I was really nervous having a 3rd mechanic try to figure out what was wrong, but Blair knew exactly what it was and fixed it in no time. Could not have been happier with the work they did.

For years I've had issues, some major, with mechanics. Especially dealerships! I've never had that issue with Blair. He's a very knowledgeable & trustworthy guy & I recommend him to all that ask me for a referral!

I found Blair after my catalytic converter was stolen at a nearby hotel. I was supposed to be returning home that day and I called Blair. He was able to get me in very quickly and helped me when I most needed it. I couldn't have been more blessed by him and his office staff. He was affordable and competent and kind. Thank you!!!!

They fixed the air conditioning in my car, which ended up being a few different electrical issues combined instead of a compressor like I feared. They had to try three different sensors because of how bad aftermarket parts can be and the dealerships were out of stock, but found a great solution with a genuine Ford part in the end, and I greatly appreciate their extra effort in the face of cruddy parts. Pricing was also extremely reasonable for the work done, and there aren't many shops that could've diagnosed the problems I was having as quickly or effectively. I'd definitely recommend them to any friends and will use them again.

Another great experience at Atlantic Automotive Specialist in Chesapeake. As always Good quality service. Thank you again. We have been bringing our car here since Blair opened up. He lets you know exactly what needs to be done and how much it will cost. He always has your car ready when he says he will. I would give him 10 stars if I could.

My 2000 Ford F150 was clearly running bad / sluggish to the point where could tell was not going to be drivable. Took it to the dealership where I've always gone - quoted me nearly 9K for a new engine said I needed. I'd had a prior referral for Atlantic Automotive - had it towed there where "Blair" completed a very different diagnosis - took his recommendations which were amazingly thorough - beyond my mechanical acumen. Long story short - I'm back on the road - running great for just a little more than 10% of the cost that the dealership quoted. Also should say he is the most intelligent Auto-Tech I've ever dealt with - thank you AAS!

Blair is the best mechanic and expert diagnostician. He is thorough and straight forward with what needs to be accomplished and communicates the timeline exactly. Will always bring my truck here from now on bc I trust his advice.

Very pleased with the service I received from Blair at Atlantic Automotive. He found what was causing the noise in both of my cars (which another mechanic could not. sway bar links in one car and bad calipers in the other) and he was upfront about it and fixed the issue with both. He doesn't try to add any extras like " well the do hickey is rotating backwards so you need 4 qts of blinker fluid with labor your looking at $499.) There is a reason he has a 5 star rating. Will continue to go to him. A trustworthy mechanic is hard to find.

Took my 15 year old jeep to Blare for a second opinion. Not only was the first diagnosis very far off, the repair was much cheaper than the incorrect diagnosis repair cost. Took care of the problem same day even though he was extremely busy! Brandy was so nice and understanding over the phone and was the one who worked me into the schedule since it was a safety issue. I can not thank them both enough, they not only fixed my vehicle quickly at a great rate, they gave me the peace of mind that I was on the road safely. Brandy & Blare, thank you again!!

My husband and I have had Blair work on our vehicles for several years. He actually was the only person my husband would allow to work our our RV. He exclusively did all the work on it and was able to diagnose and repair several issues that the dealer was unable to do. We have several makes of vehicles and he is able to work on any of them. Terrific service, wish I was able to give him more than 5 stars.

Atlantic Automotive Specialist has been working on our cars for about 4 years. He does great work. I like that he schedules the work so you are not waiting for weeks to get your car back.

Blair did a wonderful job troubleshooting the problem I was experiencing with my car. It didn't take long to diagnose the problem and repair it at a fair price. I recommend every one tovisit him work on your vehicle.

Called to ask what type of cars they work on and get a ballpark idea of what an engine fix would run me. Incredibly rude service over the phone, was rude and short even before I asked about a quote. First time needing a mechanic, and I've not interacted with car stuff much so I don't know if quotes are considered taboo or some shit, guy made it sound like I was looking to scam him. Got told he "knew where this was going" like I was a pest. A polite "we dont do quotes" would've been just fine. If you're looking for good work, other reviews are glowing, just dont expect a good bedside manner if you're calling with questions.

Impressive expertise...Blair's superior knowledge has armed him with the ability to quickly diagnose the problem which saves time $$$. A true classic car guru. Very fair price with a thorough breakdown of the repair and other areas he observed during service. Highly recommended!!!
