Mt Vernon Auto Repair & Transmissions

Probably the only auto shop I’ve ever trusted. Gave me a much better deal than the other 3 shops I went to which concerned me at first but I got the work done and my car worked great. Been going there ever since.

When my car starting misfiring right before I was scheduled to make the long drive back to Texas, I found myself searching the area for a mechanic. I came across Mt. Vernon Auto Repair & Transmissions, read the few reviews available and learned 2 out of 3 were out of town customers. Sounded like a sign to me! I may have gone in for a known misfire, but when Mr. Keys learned I was getting on the road for a long distance trip he insisted on checking out the car completely, with no charge for diagnostics. He found not only found my back breaks were bad, he found the one thing wrong with the car that I’ve explained to no less than three mechanics.
Mr. Keys is open, honest, upfront about costs before he begins any work, the work was done in a very reasonable about of time, and his prices are fair. If you need a good mechanic, you’ll find one in Mr. Keys and his Team.

This place is truly a hidden gem. I needed to have a tuneup done for my ’06 Accord and this man beat everyone’s price by a long shot. I won’t say what it is because I don’t want to get anyone all pissy.
I’ll just say that I am about to call right now and ask for another job to be done to my car. I loved the pricing and the job was done very well! It’s been over a week and my car has no issue with the new timing belt or anything else.
Give this guy your business!!!
(I gave this 4 star because the communication via phone was not great)

Incredible service. I had an emergency and they took care of me like a neighborhood mechanic I had been taking my car to for years. Trustworthy, reliable and FAIR pricing.
They even replaced a brake light socket for me for free just because they are awesome.

Mr. Kee, Mr. Park, and Jose,
You guys are a GOD SEND!
After sending my/bf’s G35 to an incompetent shop who held it hostage and charged us 1600 for work that was never completed, we took the car to Mr. Kee’s shop.
Boy oh boy, he had a straight CORRECT diagnosis within 2 days of having the engine. Told us EXACTLY what needed to be done and guess what? We didn’t even have to buy a new engine! Stupid previous shop said our ONLY option was to get a new motor. Fail!
Mr. Park worked on the car for about 2 weeks before we flew back to VA (from CA) to get the car shipped. 10 hours of work. That’s it. They needed to order a few parts to complete the project, but it was done. Promises kept and I was in tears of happiness when leaving.
The G is now running smoother than ever and bf and I cannot be any more grateful.
This shop is behind a gas station in an ally, shady looking, but it’s not shady at all. These guys KNOW what they’re doing. I’d recommend them to anybody, even my friends with mega high end cars to come here if they are in need of a mechanic in the VA/​DC/​MD area.
