Customer Reviews
“Best mechanic I've ever been to. Extremely honest, fair prices, professional and quick with repairs. We originally went here for our inspection. Since the service was so stellar, we've continued giving them our business with oil changes and repairs. Kevin is the GOAT!”

“I took my car to API Auto Repair for MD state inspection and I strongly recommend them. Everything from scheduling to the actual inspection was as smooth and as efficient as possible. Kevin was so nice, friendly, and accommodating.”

“It took Mr. Kevin 15 to 20 minutes to identify the noise on the passenger side of my car. I'd been dealing with this noise for over a year and no one else could tell me what was going on. If you're looking for an honest mechanic, this is the place to come.”

“This place is gold. Kevin is phenomenal to work with. I brought in my 2012 Chevrolet 1500 van that had a lot of issues. We created a multi-week work plan to focus on priorities first. The van runs better than it has run in years.”
