Excellent experts and very customer oriented.

Mark went above and beyond to help, I felt listened to and he was also very kind and professional. Thank you for your help Mark. I'll recommend you to my friends and family.

I highly recommend Prime Automotive in Woodbridge, VA. Excellext service, outstanding customer service and Mark and other employees actually take time to listen to your concerns and offers helpful suggestions.

I cannot recommend Prime Automotive enough! Their customer service is absolutely outstanding. I originally came in to have my oil changed and to get my front brakes and rotors checked after another shop, German Auto Specialist (right around the corner), told me I needed them replaced and quoted me over $800. Thankfully, Prime Automotive took the time to thoroughly inspect my brakes and confirmed that I still had plenty of life left on them. This matched what I suspected, as my vehicle usually notifies me when service is needed. Prime Automotive’s honesty and professionalism saved me from unnecessary expenses, and I’m so grateful to have found them. I’ll definitely be returning to them for all of my vehicle’s maintenance and service needs! Mark is awesome and super friendly and professional. Highly recommend! 5 stars all the way.

Prime Automotive has quickly become a first choice for me. I'm fully aware of the troubles that can arise from owning an older vehicle, and having owned an almost 20 year old B6 A4 has proven to challenge my own skills with maintaining a vehicle of such age. I chose to learn and attempt to do repairs where I can with as much diligence as I am able to, but of course there are limits for what one can do in their garage or on the street. For more advanced work, or areas I am not familiar with, I will opt to outsource that work, but even that has come with complications when I get outright turned away by multiple places because they hear "German car with electric problems" and steer clear. That's where Prime has come in to fill in the gaps. Not only have they confidently accepted the work I needed done, but in a respectful and communicative way that has beaten even dealership service. Mark and his team have proven themselves as professional and reliable, going above and beyond for me at points and with a price that has been lower than I would have estimated myself. They seem to give my car as much care as I have and for that they have earned their place as my go-to for repairs needed. I cannot recommend them enough.

Always great service—these guys really show they care. Highly recommended!


Jan 07, 2025

Excellant service every time we bring our cars in. Mark and his staff never do anything that isn't absolutely necessary.


Jan 07, 2025

Its always a pleasure doing business with you all at Prime Automotive. Professional and customer friendly environment and you do great work. Keep up the excellent job.

Mark and his automotive technicians are knowledgeable in keeping me safe on the road. No matter what my car may need,I leave there with confidence that the work was done. I am never over charged for any of the work done on my car. You can feel safe driving your car, after your visit @ Prime Automotive.

Prime Automotive is special. They are honest, reliable, and hard-working and take pride in doing their work. This place is one of a kind.

The guys at Prime Auto are the real deal! $90 to look into an issue, and they dive deep! If you have them make the fix, $45 of that goes towards your bill. I had a follow up issue, and they fixed it fast. It included a belt replacement, which ended up stretching a little (normal to occur) after a couple of weeks. Stopped by and they tightened it right up! Mark, the very kind manager, is very quick to respond to all inquiries, and they just work quickly in general! I highly recommend these guys!


Dec 07, 2024

This shop, they are very honest. They will try to help you the best way that they can Appreciate you all and keep up the good work 👍.

Was able to get an appointment for an alignment the very same day, they were very quick and knowledgeable, and honest enough to say that certain services aren't yet necessary instead of trying to push more more work. Great job!


Nov 07, 2024

Great service and consultation every visit! They are extremely knowledgeable and will give you the truth. Highly recommend!

My experience with Prime Automotive was great. Mark really looked out for me with the problems I had with my car. He allowed me to get the funds for the repair while my car was at his lot for a month. The work performed on the car was great, and he found other problems wrong with the car and informed me of them. That to me goes a long way, because some shops would fix the problem of the car which it has come in for. Then you would have to take the car back to the shop for something else that was seen while your car was getting repaired the first time. Overall, you have a satisfied customer.


Nov 07, 2024

Prime was quick and effective in diagnosing what was wrong with my car and had the best prices. Everyone I spoke to was kind and thoroughly explained everything that was being done.


Nov 07, 2024

Professional team, fair prices, I can say this is the best auto repair shop in Woodbridge

My 1968 Saturn finally past on last year, but we were able to replace it with a 2005 Acura RL. We just had our annual service with Prime Automotive and the service was excellent. We got everything we needed done and it was very convenient. This is the place were we can trust for great service.


Oct 06, 2024

UPDATE: This is my second time using Prime Automotive. My assessment of this business is the same as before. I can count on honesty, good communication, and reliability. Mark has taken the time to answer questions and offer suggestions for maintenance. Referred a friend who was also pleased with the service.

I have been a loyal customer of Prime Automotive (Mark) for over 20 years, starting from their original location in Manassas. Throughout these years, Mark has consistently demonstrated exceptional knowledge, honesty, and integrity. He has provided maintenance and repairs for all my cars, as well as for my family members’ vehicles. Mark’s expertise and dedication to quality service are unmatched. I strongly recommend Mark to anyone in need of a trustworthy and skilled mechanic.


Sep 06, 2024

I highly recommend Prime Automotive, as I have been taking my cars here for years after a bad experience with a dealership. I appreciate Mark's expert car knowledge and honesty. No matter how busy his shop is he has time to answer questions and give advice.

I recently purchased a used vehicle and wanted an alignment after getting new tires. Mark checked the car out and found it was still within spec and offered to just charge a small fee or dial in the alignment for the regular price. He is very honest, not many mechanics would do the same! I still went ahead and got the alignment done for peace of mind and he performed the work in a timely manner. I would not hesitate to bring my car here, I will be returning for my car service needs.


Aug 06, 2024

Mark has been working on my vehicles since 2008. He's always been honest and knowledgeable about all the makes I've owned. I still go to his shop even though I've moved out of the immediate area. Highly recommend
