Five stars++ Last month, Auto Care Clinic replaced the catalytic converter and transmission on our 2004 Astro van. We vacation in Front Royal yearly and are unfamiliar with local merchants and shops, so we let customer reviews guide us. We were relieved that Bill Longs Auto Care Clinic could run diagnostics, provide a fair job quote, and get the job done so we could head back home to AZ. The car is running great! No problems on our trip down, and dont anticipate any related to their work. They have a solid nation-wide guarantee which eased our minds about going with a local repair shop. They will be our go-to place at Front Royal from here on out. A BIG thank you to Bill and his professional front desk staff and mechanics. My apologies for the delayed review, we were getting settled in back home.

Lady at the counter was extremely rude. They tried the typical scare tactics that something was wrong with my car and it barely passed. Also I would need to schedule an appointment immediately to have it fixed. Upon further discussion With the mechanic absolutely nothing was wrong. I’ll be reporting this to the state police. Do not let inspection places scare you into expensive repairs.

Outstanding....as usual. Staff was their usual cheerful, professional, and accommodating. After determining the check engine light was an errant anomaly they reset it at no charge. Very grateful.

Wow!! The expansion at Auto Care Clinic is impressive. When companies grow, often customer service goes down a bit. Not here. This family business cares about both employees and customers. Scheduled service, dropped off overnight and picked up when they notified us van was done. Everyone is cheerful and treats you like youre part of the family. Their discount book made another service day free (covered under discount book). This book is worth its cost.

Traveling through the area and I got a nail in my tire. I pulled in to Bill Lang’s late in the day not expecting much. Wow! They are great, greeted me with a smile, offered me some snacks and water. They did the repair quickly, let me know what was going on every step of the way. The owner even stoped by to ask me if things were going well. If I lived in the area it would be my regular repair shop!

Ive not had the best experience with auto shops in this area, but Auto Care Clinic turned that around. This was my first time there, and Ill definitely be making them my go-to from now on. Very professional, knowledgeable, and great communication. I had a few minor things that I needed checked out. They were extremely busy, but made the time to take a look at my issues. They listened to what I needed, and did exactly that. I was able to drop my car off in the morning, and they shuttled me back to work. Throughout the day they called to give me updates so I knew exactly what was going on. They gave me a cost breakdown ahead of time, and asked permission before actually performing any repairs. When I didnt understand something, they took the time to thoroughly explain it until I did. The ladies at the service desk were friendly & helpful, and made me feel very welcomed. And while the cost is slightly higher than other places Ive been, Ill happily pay a few dollars more for quality work and satisfaction. Just an overall great place, friendly environment, with certifed techs and caring owners.

I was/am impressed! I sent my daughter to the Auto Care Clinic for a state inspection. She felt very comfortable in the lobby, and the staff made her feel welcome. Her car passed, but they noted a few items that will need our attention soon. No high pressure sales pitch or anything! She came home with a folder full of information, and they truly made her feel like a valued customer. I appreciate a business who appreciates their customers!

I love the staff ant the Auto Care Clinic -- but this time they seemed a little overbooked. A 20-minute inspection (for which I had an appointment) took over an hour. Unfortunately, because of a prior appointment elsewhere I had to bring the car back for minor inspection corrections. Well continue to use them - hopefully this was a one-off day.

I was recommended to get my state inspection here. They took me without an appointment, but I did have to come back an hour later, thats fine. I cant comment on anything else because I only got an inspection, but I will try them next time Im in need of a car repair based on others reviews. The inspection only took 30 minutes if that matters to anyone.

The Auto Care Clinic was suggested to me by a neighbor - this was my first visit. I had had some service issues with my car at a dealership which the Auto Care Clinic was able to solve. I am impressed with their professional and personable service. I was happy with the entire experience beginning with the making of the appointment, continuing with keeping me in-the-loop during the service and ending with the detailed explanation at car pick-up. I feel that I can trust them with the service needs of my cars in the future.

I had a great experience bringing in my car for an inspection. I was greeted upon arrival and was able to sit in a nice outside bench while my car was inspected.

I had the parts and he said their insurance would not let them use the customer buying the part from auto zone, which is bullcrap, they just cant add in a high price on the part if customer buys it, I am not stupid, but its their loss cause I spend over $30,000 a year on maintenance for 7 of my vehicles

Review №52

I live rural where there is no mass transit, so a dependable functional car is a major priority for me. I was at the crossroads of maybe having to buy a newer car, and had to rent a car if I was traveling more than 400-miles... or I wouldnt travel long distances. Since the Auto Care Clinic started their scheduled quality maintenance on my 23-year-old+ car, I can now travel anywhere with confidence. Its nice not having to pay for the finance costs for a newer vehicle or, the continued additional, temporary expense of a rental car. My car may not be a chic magnet but it runs great, thanks Auto Care Clinic!

It’s always difficult managing car problems but I was very pleased this time. AC quit while driving from northern NY on the hottest day in June. Reached my grandparents home and they suggested your repair shop, and I’m tired, low on funds and energy. We called and you took us in that day. Your response and explanation was something I could understand and you did the repair right away. The cost was reasonable so they also did the brakes that were overdue. All work was done right away. Estimates, final bill and payments were all done on line and I’m back on the road to my 3rd year of college. Thanks to everyone at Bill’s Auto Clinic.

Based on numerous recommendations by my neighbors, I used Auto Care Clinic yesterday for the first time. I am so happy I did. The staff are friendly and professional. There is a waiting area for customers with comfy chairs and water, coffee, and snacks. I live close by and they gave me a ride home so I didnt have to wait. They also have a small loaner fleet if you need one. The work on my car was done quickly. They email you a cool summary sheet of everything they checked and what was done. I was very pleased with the entire experience and will definitely bring my car back when it needs servicing. Give them a try!

We were very pleased with our experience...we had an issue with our car and stopped by just to have it looked at and schedule an appointment if needed. They looked at the car and determined it was likely better not to drive it and took it right in. They fit us in despite their busy schedule. We explained we only had one car and they were able to provide us with a much appreciated loaner car. The shop was clean and the service excellent. We will use them again and highly recommended them!

Yes, yes and yes! 😎 Yes, they do excellent work on vehicles by highly skilled mechanics. My experiences for both of my vehicles have been efficient, timely, complete and fair. Yes, they are a team I feel I can trust and rely upon. And yes, they are just plain nice! ☺️ I went to them with that dreaded “I don’t know why my car is (*insert problem*) but it needs to be fixed so it can run properly...” and the diagnosis and service was simply great! For me, going into mechanics with that sort of open-ended help request has left me with a huge list of quotes on repairs, plus quotes on possible repairs that might be needed which make my head spin! I’ve been to other auto repair places including dealers and this place stands out. This is actually the first review I’ve ever posted about an auto repair place in my (thinking...) 20 or so years, it was that great and worth the write-up. A++++ ☺️

Best locally owned car shop in the United States! The owners are really nice. The shop is super clean and very professionally managed. All of the employees are friendly and knowledgeable. There is lots of parking available. They also sometimes have loaner cars. There is a shuttle service for customers as well. The owners are really involved in the local community and do things to help. They give out a bag of chips everytime you pick up your car.

Bill Long and the entire staff of the Auto Care Clinic are professionals in all aspects. The facility is extremely comfortable and the staff is knowledgeable and pleasant to interact with.

For the amount of time and labor they expended, the total cost was very reasonable. It was a very pleasant experience.

My Auto Care Clinic experience has been the best automotive care I have ever encountered. After a nightmare of mishaps with my vehicle within a short time...break downs, tows, and mechanic (not mechanical) mistakes, I finally found my way here. Every person at the shop listened, explained, and advised. They were each and every one knowledgeable and respectful. The waiting room was comfortable and inviting....making it easy to wait on results. When my car needed lengthier repairs I was offered a ride or a loaner. At last, I wasnt stranded and found a place I could trust.They guarantee their work, increasing my confidence. I will return and recommend the Auto Care Clinic to everyone.

I have visited the Auto Care Clinic three times to date and each experience has been exceedingly positive.Friday , prior to a 300 mile drive to North Carolina , I noticed a tire with low pressure. The tire would not take air and I stopped by on the off chance that they might look at it fully knowing that I had no appointment. After less than 30 minutes they had addressed the problem and I was on my way! These folks are always friendly, courteous, and professional. Everyone at Lake Frederick patronizes this business and everyone is a fan!

I moved to Front Royal a few months ago and last week I needed to find a car place to do some routine work. I went on Facebook to ask for suggestions about a car place having honest mechanics, a nice waiting area and a shuttle service. Overwhelmingly the Auto Care Clinic was recommended and so I tried it and I will never go anywhere else. I immediately felt like an old valued customer and you will too.
