Consumer Comments for Auto Scandia

Consumer from RESTON, VA

I have been using Auto Scandia for a few years and have found them to be honest and reliable. Unlike some other independent service providers, they haven’t pushed unnecessary work and kept suggestions to real safety issues. They are not as expensive as the dealer. For me, their location is more convenient, though it’s important to make an appointment before you bring it your vehicle in. You can just show up at the dealer, but you pay a real premium for that. And there is no guarantee that you will have your car back the same day (that’s really for any repairs anywhere that are out of the ordinary). I plan to stick with them for the foreseeable future,

Always on top of regular maintenance services. Expert service for difficult-to-diagnose vehicle issues. Treats customers as equals, respects our intelligence and concerns. Like family!

Honest, better prices for same services vs, dealers. Have dealt with them for many years and several foreign cars. Highly recommend.
