I gave them a call because I had a concern about a strange noise coming from the driver's side front wheel. They were very thorough in trying to figure out what it was they fixed it and I am very grateful!! And my required VA safety test as well.They were very professional, and happy to answer any questions. And even though they did not have shuttle service in the pouring rain they took me home and brought my vehicle back after they fixed it and I really appreciate that kind of attention to detail.Not only will I returned as a customer but anyone in need of Mechanical Services I would definitely send them there

They completed the work which earned the one star I m awarding. They under estimated the original job because they were not aware of the correct fluid that was required. The cost of that mistake was passed on to me. They did not originally did not disclose that they did not have all the necessary tools to complete the job, which necessitated them outsourcing to another shop. They did not actively communicate otherwise understandable delays, which created unnecessary tension and confusion. When I got my vehicle back it smelled like they had been smoking in it for the three weeks they had my car for the repairs. When we called to confront them they attempted to shift the blame to Piedmont Tire and Auto, who had the car for one workday day to complete the portion of the job that they were not equipped to complete.Perhaps the cynical signs all through the workspace making jokes about poor customer service practices aren t in jest, but instead represent company policy.

Haymarket Motors has just gained a new customer. Dawn friendly and pleasant from our first encounter on the phone to greeeting me when dropping my car off. Customer service 5 stars. Don 1 of the 2 mechanics that works @ the garage was knowledgeable, polite and honest. He immediately addressed my concerns and provided me with a remedy and a quote. Turn around time and price fair not crazy as other garages in the area. Location is a bit tricky it's hidden behind Piedmont tires. The next time you are in need Haymarket Motors will not disappoint. Mike the other mechanic also friendly and knowledgeable and Alex his female yellow lab joins him at work, addition to the positive vibe of the shop. Thank you all!!Service: Steering & suspension replacement

Picture this for me; it's Thursday at 6 pm and you are an hour into your 3 hour commute home from working in the office for 3 days and you are rushing home to see your 2 and 3 years olds who have been missing their dad for 3 days now, only to hear a loud POP like a cork and thinking youll need to spend the night on the side of the road, get a ridiculously priced taxi, and miss out on seeing your family that night. I made some local calls to shops to be turned down and to "come in at 730 am when my mechanic comes back."I make a call to Haymarket Motors, told them i may have blown a spark plug and understand they close in 1 hour. They told me to swing by and that they would have a look anyway. I pulled in and they were ready and waiting and wasted no time diagnosing and finding a quick fix on a loosened/unfastened turbo tube. Within less than 5 minutes, this team of angels allowed me in their door, performed a quality assessment, and refused cash from me for such a simple fix. Meanwhile, this is 45 minutes before closing at this point and having already been turned down elsewhere. I cannot recommend this team and shop enough. Hands down, best quality human services and top-notch people in general.Thank you for being great human beings <3- Guy with Red Ford FocusService: Engine repair

Haymarket Motors got my vehicle in quickly, did everything I asked for a fair price, and had the vehicle back to me the same day. I will not hesitate to drive past other shops in the areas to do business with this local small business in the future.Service: Auto engine diagnosticService: Auto engine diagnostic

I'd been having a problem with my car since January, and no one had been able to tell me what was going on or fix the issue until I went into Haymarket Motors. These guys know their stuff--they quickly figured out what was wrong with my car and had her done within a day. When I went in to pick her up, they had even saved the broken part (my ignition coils) to show me what was wrong. They are knowledgeable, honest, friendly, and just excellent at what they do!Service: Engine repair

My car was overheating & I had no clue why. So I went here, & sure enough Fred discovered the problem. Fred & Mike had my car fixed within 2 hours. Outstanding service!If you want timely, cost-efficient care for your car, look no further. Highly recommend you go here if you re in the Haymarket-Gainesville area.

The dealership wanted to charge me a ton of money to fix a whole laundry list of issues with my car. At a friend's recommendation, I called up Fred. On the spot, Fred was able to look up my car's year, make, and model, and tell me that most of those "urgent" repairs were routine maintenance items that didn't actually need to be done for another 15,000 or 25,000 miles.I brought my car in, and a few days later, Fred had finished up on the few items that actually needed to be done at a fraction of the total price the dealership had given me! He even wrote a thorough report of all the items he checked just to make sure that my car was up to snuff.While they do have a bit of a wait list, it's well worth it. Fred's reputation precedes him, as my friend can't stop singing his praises. Now I can't either! He really saved my proverbial bacon.Most mechanics will try to overcharge you, sell you on things you don't really need, etc. Here is a trustworthy, reliable mechanic who does great work at a reasonable price, and in this day and age, that's nearly impossible to come by. Trust me, and take your car to Haymarket Motors. You won't regret it!

What helpful and kind people here. I had an emergency issue with my car while traveling through the area and Fred and Mike helped me out right away - they were happy to institute a cheap, temporary solution at my request so that I could get back on the road quickly. As soon as I came by Mike stopped what he was working on and got on the ground to do what needed doing so I could drive safely again, and they wouldn t accept any compensation for their time or effort. I had no choice but to get the repair done at the time so they could have easily charged me something, but instead they took time out of their work schedule just to help me out and to boot they couldn t have been more friendly about it. I don t live in the area but when I do need repairs done in the future that aren t too time consuming I m going to go out of my way to try to schedule them here when I ll be passing through again. If I were in the area this would be my go-to repair shop.

Mike and the crew at Haymarket Motors are awesome. I am from out of town and needed a simple quick fix to get home as I normally do my own work. I had dropped my vehicle off at another place in Haymarket and they assured me they could get to it. I dropped it off to them at 7:10 am and they called me at 10:30am to say they could not get to it. I called Haymarket Motors and they said come on over. I left that other place and drove the few hundred yards to Haymarket Motors where Mike did the simple quick fix while I waited. The professionalism and customer care was exactly what every customer desires.So, bypass the big guys out front and check out Mike and the guys at Haymarket Motors.Service: Exhaust

Fred and Mike are the best! After blowing out a tire on 66 I was towed to Haymarket Motors. Fred and Mike were extremely knowledgeable, answered all my questions, and were extremely generous in helping me get my car fixed and back on the road. Go see these guys for any of your auto repair needs, they'll take great care of you!Service: TiresService: Tires

I had about 10 lights come on a few miles outside of Haymarket on my way to Falls Church. I pulled off the exit, looked for the nearest garage and made my way to Haymarket Motors. The guys did an excellent job looking over my car, finding out what was wrong, and were very patient with my boys screaming in the background. Not only that but I got to love on a sweet little doggie while waiting! I highly recommend this place to anyone who lives in the area or who need any help along the way of their travels. I don't know cars and the were so kind and great explaining everything to me! Definitely reccomend!!!

After a very frustrating day of car trouble, the shop owner tried and tested our vehicle every which way, and didn't want to charge us for his time. We would definitely return should the need arise.

Amazing place. It's off the beaten path but worth the scenic detour. Fred and Mike hooked us up with a safety inspection. In and out in 20 mins while everywhere else in town was 'leave your car with us for +24 hours'. Very cool shop. Just follow the signs to the shop in the back and get ready for good people and some great stories from Fred. Thanks guys!

Replaced my worn out water pump and added new coolant for a decent price in one day. Even threw in a freebie remounting of my tail light assembly since a screw had come out while driving. Definitely gained a customer while I'm in town.

Super competent mechanics! This is going to be my first stop from now on. After a different shop failed to repair my wheel bearing, these guys took care of it easily. Definitely give them a try!Service: Steering & suspension repairService: Steering & suspension repair

Great mechanics! They smoke in the closed garage, so my car smelled like smoke. But, the quality of service was excellent!

Fred and his team know how to do the right think when maintaining your car. Totally transparent, and stands behind his work. Fair pricing and quality work.

The other day when I was traveling I went to sheetz to fill up. My fuel door wouldn t open so I went to Haymarket Motors to see if they could fix it. They were able to open the fuel door and made it so it would not lock until I got it fixed! They were so helpful and understanding and stopped what they were doing to help me. Without them I would of been stranded. Thank you so much. I am very grateful!

During state inspection, Miller Toyota said we needed rear brake pads & drums, $700 (for 2000 Sienna). Haymarket Motors bid $350 for the exact same work, then did the pads for $250, and said the drums were fine. Fred saved us $450.
