Silver Spring Auto Repair

Jorge said he has always had a good experience and they've provided good work at a reasonable price.

Henry was especially responsive in a critical emergency situation. I called just before closing time and he was able to come by (we're close to the shop) and rescue our car so that we could get it into the shop for repair. Many thanks, Henry!!

Ronald said the business did a very good job and they are reliable, but the prices are a little high. He never has any problems with his vehicles after the work is completed.

Roderick said this business is nice and so are the people there.

my vehicle, (a 1999 ford escort SW) had an engine problem that was wrongly diagnosed and given a DEATH sentence!! by ANOTHER incompetant mechanic!!. henry and the shop 'saved my white ass'!, even though i had to part with a punishing amount of money. (not unusual for MAJOR engine work!!) the car now runs good as new, and i'm THRILLED!! to have it running again, as i LOVE the escort wagons. after a few years of dealing with various shops, i am glad to find a shop i'm willing to trust!, after using a good friend for years, who retired from the business. i'll certainly be back to see henry again, i was treated right, and i thoroughly like they way he/the shop does business! i was taken in the shop to observe some of the repair work, and saw WHY some parts needed replacing, that were obviously part of my problem/s. being an ex-electrician, and 'mechanic' myself; this meant a lot to me. -GREAT shop!! i was referred by a long time friend, and the shop was ALSO recommended by a 2nd friend.

great service

My go-to local shop for things I don't want to do myself. Friendly people and fair prices. They did the 100k mile service on my 2006 4runner and I had no issues. My favorite tire shop (Radial Tire) recommended Allen Auto to me for an alignment a few years ago. If they are good enough for Radial they are good enough for me.

Good and honest service as always.

I took the car in for a problem with the heater. While fixing that, the technician noticed that one headlight was very dim. As a result, I was able to have the bulb replaced before I was unknowingly driving with a burned out headlight.

Allen Automotive is the mechanic you've always dreamed of finding but never could. Behind the red painted brick wall of the shop in an unimpressive industrial park lie immaculate service bays, top notch mechanics and technicians....attention to you and to your car like you've never had. The staff listens and pays attention, understanding that they may need to diagnose a problem even though you might not speak "mechanic" in describing it. No, they aren't cheap----but these guys are craftsmen & you absolutely get what you pay for. (They are NOT rip-off artists, inventing things to fix and then charge you for.) If you need multiple issues attended to----say in an older vehicle--Henry always contacts you to describe the problem and ask if you want them to fix it, BEFORE he takes action. AA never assumes.
