Transmission Repair in Silver Spring, MD

“Very professional and great communication!! I have been taking my Porsche to dealers and a private place in Va for the past 2 years without having issues fully resolved. I wish that I discovered CJ Foreign Car Service earlier! Eugene was great answering questions before my appointment, and during my appointment for an oil change and engine work. Eugene and his team was able to resolve my ongoing problems and the car runs like new! Very competitive, fair pricing which is better than other local shops and dealer.Services: General repairs & maintenance”

“Moshe is the best! I made the mistake of coming in and saying what I thought was wrong based on my Google searching. Moshe called me about an hour after dropping it off and said the thing I though was wrong was completely fine but the it was something else. He was completely upfront on pricing and what my car needed. He made me completely comfortable as a woman dropping my car off. He actually cares about your car and wants to make sure you get the best value.”

“They've maintained our Corollas for several years, and we've been happy with them. Especially when we had to take our cars in during COVID - they had glass and masks. They also allow for after-hours drop off, which is very convenient for those of us who work well past 5 PM. The online estimates make things very convenient, but they never try to push service on us, while explaning when stuff really does need service. The downside is you have to call them to make an appointment...lately my husband and I have not gotten confirmations from that, but aside from that, they are communicative when you do need repairs.”

“Very knowledgeable and thoughtful about recommendations for appropriate and least cost for repair. Miguel volunteered a series of progressive options to fix A without B and C, versus A with B and C, versus A and C only, etc. that is, the customer develops a well-formed perspective on the nature of the work, especially with regard to the basic common elements of the repair, so that saving are possible through “à la carte” selection. We wanted the hood repainted, but without blending to the other adjacent panels, and a second unrelated cosmetic repair to the rear quarter panel area. Also, we had a strict budget, so the à la carte options allowed us to assess whether our goal was attainable at the required price. In my experience, this sort of estimate is difficult to obtain, because most auto body repair shops seek a restoration to “good as new, with respect to age of vehicle” that requires extensive blending of paint far from the region of actual damage; also, some customers may flinch at the notion of disclosing the budget, but we did not feel any sense that the shop was using that information to our disadvantage. To be clear, there is no doubt that Miguel and partners have a strong sense of personal excellence to do the very best job, and the à la carte option that I describe does restrict their ability to accomplish “insurance-grade” repairs. However, for voluntary repairs (as is our case) we simply wanted some items fixed that were NOT the result of an insurance-reported collision (for example, the hood is starting to lose paint for this older vehicle, and we want to forestall future rust damage). We want the paint to “match”, but we are not concerned with blending to the other panels. We have no intention of selling this vehicle, so we are not interested in preserving or maintaining the blue book value. Ours is an uncommon perspective, and a repair shop generally avoids this sort of request because (I suspect) there is a high risk that the customer’s expectations will not match the outcome (that is, a naïve customers’s response at pickup could be, “well, I know I requested no blending to the other panels, but I thought it would look better than *this*…”, which would lead to a dissatisfied customer and, subsequently, an erroneous erosion of the shop’s reputation, were the dissatisfaction to materialize as a bad google review or even simply neighborhood chatter…ANYHOW…we made it clear to the shop that we knew the awkward position, but also demonstrated that we had à realistic expectation. Miguel wrote out a very detailed description of the work plan, for us to approve (this protects the shop *and* the customer, dig it?). Miguel was courteous, informative, and thoughtful, AND he brought up some obvious questions we had failed to ask. We left the shop with a very thorough understanding of the work plan, within budget.”

“Few months back I brought in a 200k+ Manual transmission '07 Subaru Legacy with several unusual noises. The technician got me a used 100k transmission at a very reasonable price installed with a new clutch kit and shifter bushings. Back on the road with a quick turnaround. Very much appreciated.”

“I had my transmission replaced at this location, they worked with my warranty which was thru Carsheild, they took care of everything I did not have to get involved in the claim process. The repair was quick and the shops communication with me was almost daily. Highly recommend this location.”
