Charles and his team are a wonderful asset to the neighborhood. I’ve used Metro Motor several times for regular services (oil change, etc.) and they’ve always been prompt, reasonably-priced, communicative, and helpful. But I really want to emphasize how great they were when I was in a definite pinch (flat on the Beltway - so fun). They fit me in super-quickly, figured out what was wrong, and gave great guidance on what to do next since it was a brand new tire with a road hazard warranty. And Charles put up with my tired Monday-brain questions. Can’t recommend enough.

I cannot say enough great things about Metro Motor. From start to finish, the entire service staff was absolutely incredible. The experience felt intentional, professional, and genuinely customer-focused. I especially want to recognize Charles Seifert, who went above and beyond in every sense. He was extremely thorough, communicative, and intentional throughout the process. It was clear that he truly cared about making sure we had everything we needed and that we felt confident and satisfied with the service provided. What stood out most was how he took extra time to ensure our car was safe to drive, even in situations where he did not have to. His advice was honest, helpful, and rooted in making the best decision for our safety, not just completing a transaction. That level of integrity and care is rare and deeply appreciated. Because of this experience, I will always recommend Metro Motor and will continue to bring my car here for all of its service needs. If you are looking for a place that values quality, safety, and exceptional customer service, this is it.

Absolute satisfaction! I had a rear tire blowout and needed a tow to the nearest repair shop rather than the Alfa Romeo dealership several miles away. I ordered the new tire with a complete set as needed (lucky only one blew!). The super speedy Stelvio Quadrifoglio was in need of a complete service, including new brakes and a couple of rotors. The Metro Motor team on Henry Street in Old Town, VA took the challenge in stride and in concert with the Alfa team in Stafford for getting OEM parts completed a complete repair with optimal service within 48 hours. Now I’m not saying they can or will complete all service so quickly but in this case they did. And it was an amazing job! What I can say is don’t be afraid to bring your specialty vehicle to this spot where the Service Manager, Charles, and his team will complete all the work needed to get you back on the road. Huge shout out to everyone who helped! Even the neighbor who received my order of tires by mistake! Amazing work and great neighborhood skill and kindness!

I took my 2000 Toyota RAV4 in to replace a bad muffler. They had no problem locating the parts needed. Repairs were completed the next day and I was notified in a timely manner. I was extremely impressed with how courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable the employees were. What was surprising, was that they cleaned the interior and exterior of the vehicle (can’t remember when I’ve seen that done before). Job well done!

Great experience here. The communication was top notch and the price was fair. They found the issue with my alignment and took me back into the shop and showed me the issue. Raised the car up and answered questions, it was very transparent and a good experience. Would definitely recommend and will be back in the future.

Charles and team were thorough and professional! Their knowledge of the cars systems and what was needed and not needed wa much appreciated. They went above and beyond for the car wash and detailing as well. Their prices and rates were competitive as well. I will be back.

I had the alternator go out on my pickup while in route from the Midwest to Alexandria, Virginia. After getting a tow to my hotel in Alexandria I googled auto mechanic shops in town and found Metro Motors. Clearly feeling vulnerable by being far from home and at the mercy of the locals, I was very surprised to learn that Metro Motors had their own tow service as well as certified mechanics who could work on my pickup. They provided exceptional service. Charles was an excellent communicator and kept me apprised of the entire process at each step along the way. They were able to diagnose all the issues and provide me a timely report. Once they got my authorization to begin working on the issue they had it resolved within a couple of short hours. I went from being completely without transportation to back on the road the same day. The work was excellent, timely, and complete. Metro Motors was a Godsend for me and I'm grateful to Charles and the team!

My partner's car passenger tire got slashed with something on the road and caught a flat. I looked up the nearest shop, and had her go to this Metro Motor location. I can't remember one of the employees name but it started with an M. He assisted my partner right away but was unable to change the tire since the car was missing the spare. We asked if the car could be left until late afternoon and we would bring a new tire. Without hesitation, He said no problem and my partner was able to go to work as scheduled. I then arrived in the afternoon with a new tire for the car. Service Manager Charles was very attentive and chill person and made sure I was taken care off right away. M the same employee from the morning, changed the tire to the new one and installed it as well with no problem. We were on our way in less than 20 min. The whole group of guys at this location are great and very service friendly. Would recommend if you catch a flat or need any auto work done, swing by.

I am so glad I stumbled upon this shop! I stopped to get gas as the shop is adjacent to the Shell Station and saw Charles putting information into the system. I had just gotten a quote from the dealership of almost 10 grand the day before so I was ecstatic to get a second opinion! Before the mechanic Brian saw the inspection video, he already knew what he was looking at. They gave me a better quote, made the appointment, got my car worked on, and I couldn’t have asked for better timing. I highly recommend!!!!

I can’t say enough good things about this shop. After AAA couldn’t help me and left me stuck, I had my car brought here, and they took care of everything. They quickly diagnosed that my alternator was the issue, swapped it out, and also handled a battery problem. Honest, and professional, and kept me updated throughout the whole process. Pricing was fair, and they had my car running smoothly. Highly recommend this auto shop to anyone needing trustworthy, efficient service.

They took great care of me. I sat in the waiting area and got to hear many interactions between the manager and customers, he was very down to earth, told people what mx they could delay and what they should get done, seemed like a genuine nice guy and had great customer service and people skills. I also enjoyed watching him interact with the staff, they seem to have a good team!

These guys are awesome! Was riding around with low tire pressure and realized I had a nail in my tire while filling up my tank, so I decided to run in and ask if they could plug it for me. Charlie and his team were so responsive and friendly, and quick! They immediately started working on my car and discovered another issue that was contributing to the problem (which they fixed). Charlie also helped me scrape something off my windshield :) I can’t recommend them enough, and I think they may have just become my go-to car guys.

*Update* Once again, I had a great experience with the team from MetroMotors. This time around Charles was my point of contact for the repairs. My repeated positive experiences ensure MetroMotors is my ‘go-to’ mechanic. Omar and his team are fabulous. Super responsive and transparent about the service and any recommended repairs. I really like how they send photos and details about exactly what needs to be done, and you are able to text with them so getting real-time communication is a breeze. I was even able to talk with them when I had an issue while on a short road trip. They talked me through my issue (it was something I could do a quick patch while I was on the trip); I was able to drop my car off the day I got back and they completed a proper fix. The team is super thorough and you can tell they take pride in their work.
