The staff were very helpful in providing a quote that beat competitors. They communicated quickly and efficiently. We scheduled the work and it was completed that day. I am very happy with the service that I received and my car is running great. 👍🏽

I have been coming here for a few years now and I can’t recommend this business enough. They worked on my Jeep JK , and now my GR86. Paul’s customer service skills is outstanding. He’s very informative and willing to work with customers. Prices are tough but it’s worth it. 10/10

Have used FarEast now twice--once for an issue with our family's Honda and once for routine maintenance on our Nissan. Scheduling was easy, communication was excellent. I appreciate that work estimates include photos and the ability to approve/decline specific portions of the work via text link. I've been looking for an honest, accessible local shop for a while and happy to say that I believe I've found it.

Thanks to service advisor Paul and the service techs from Far East Motors our 18 year old Magnum SRT8 runs and handles like new again. Ive been a satisfied customer with Far East Motors for more than 15 years and have had many cars serviced and maintained here that include 2 Mazda 3’s; 3 Mazda Miata’s; an Audi A3 convertible; a Mazda 5; a Toyota Prius-V Wagon; Dodge Magnum SRT8 and Dodge Charger SRT8. Regardless of whether it is foreign or domestic Paul, Watchman, Brandy, the automotive techs and owner John provide customers with accurate diagnosis, maintenance, repair and excellent customer service.

I brought a 1993 Acura Legend coupe to them in a box. The numbers matching engine was rebuilt by Tacho Machinist Hyattsville but my mechanic fell ill and couldn't complete the job. Far East did a complete rebuild and put the car back on the road again. Its a 32yr old vehicle so anything can be a problem they fabricated a shifter lock that couldnt be purchased, fixed the fuel rail seals leaks, vacuum leaks, cleaned+resealed plenum, brakes, and more. We are still working through some rough idle issues but otherwise my baby is on the road again and she rides beautifully. I went from a car in a box to a running classic vehicle. Thanks Mr. Watchman and Paul for taking great care of me.

Got an oil change here. They were fast, up front, professional, personable. Everything you’d want from a mechanic and a small business. 5/5 would recommend.

Took my car in for a state safety inspection, and they said they had a state inspector. That was a lie. They took the car to Takoma Oldtown Auto Service for the inspection (who are great btw, go there instead) and upcharged me. Additionally they drilled holes in my cars fog lights without asking me, they stated it was to vent moisture inside the housing but I never saw any. They drilled straight through the lens, not even through the side of the housing, and didn't even bother to reattach the housing to the bumper. My car failed safety inspection at Takoma Oldtown Auto in part because of the holes in the fog light housing, my guess is Far East Motors were trying to create some billable repairs for themselves. I want to reiterate, I went in for a safety inspection and did not authorize any work on my car and they drilled holes in my fog lights and took it to a different mechanic for the inspection! I took my car to Pinecrest Shell in Annandale for the repairs needed to pass inspection (they have been working on my family's cars for years, can't recommend them enough), and I will be skipping the middleman and taking my car to Takoma Oldtown Auto for the re-inspection. I will not be going back to Far East ever, the cat in the office was cute though.

Great experience! The team was super friendly and got my car fixed fast. Paul explained everything clearly and gave me a few repair options, which I really appreciated. The check-in and paperwork were quick and easy with their tech setup. Definitely a place I’d go back to!

I always have a great experience with Far East Motors. Their customer service is some of the best I’ve ever experienced. And they always do a top job on my car. It always gives me peace of mind knowing my car is in good hands with them.

Fast, friendly and knowledgeable. When my car started leaking oil from a faulty oil change at the dealership. The Far East folks got me in reasonably quickly, diagnosed it within an hour, and got it taken care of. It’s nice to be able to rely on a local mechanic!

Bought a 91 Honda Legend Coupe RHD. Car wouldn't start and stay on. Every other mechanic was afraid to touch it because it was Japanese spec. I called the shop and Paul was super helpful and super detailed. They were able to diagnose the problem and were prompt with what I would need. I was up and running a day earlier than expected. Im happy to have a new mechanic in the DMV. I won’t be taking my cars anywhere else.

My first time going there. The place is very clean and the staffs are professional and nice. They were also very knowledgeable about my car and explained in good details about what wrong with my car.

Had a critical and time sensitive repair need for our 2007 Prius just 2 days before Christmas. Not only did Far East Motors resolve the issue along with other needed service, they were able to do it before noon on Christmas Eve. Truly appreciate their professional and timely work.

Far East Motors were super communicative, friendly, and professional. My Mazda had an electrical issue and they worked to identify the source of it, which was not trivial. They got it done in a timely manner and communicated with me throughout, which I very much appreciated.

I had my Honda towed to Far East Motors based on a Google search after a no start situation at night and away from home. I left a note and the keys in the night drop box and they fixed it the next day! Paul was friendly and communication was great!

Customer service was excellent! The team got me in quickly, diagnosed the issue, and fixed it promptly. I had my car back the same day! They are very knowledgeable when it comes to Prius vehicles. Bonus points for giving my daughter a Christmas tree cookie… she officially rates them 5 stars! 🎄🍪⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Far East Motors did an amazing job on my car. It was towed in and had to be pushed into the shop, but their technicians quickly diagnosed everything and fixed it the right way. Now it runs better than before the breakdown. They delivered as promised, were professional from start to finish, and their pricing was fair. I highly recommend them!
