Reviews of Far East Motors
Lenora Fuller-McCall
I received a warm and timely welcome, advised of the repair estimate in advance. My car was serviced (spark plugs replaced) in a timely and efficient manner, and the entire staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I have been bringing my cars to Far East Motors for about two decades and have trust, complete confidence in their service and repairs. I highly recommend them.
Colin Smith
Far East Motors is a great business! Watchman was incredibly helpful and communicative through the process of getting my car fixed and beat the prices of area dealerships. The mechanics are also largely Silver Spring natives and I love supporting people who grew up and still live here!
Hannah Meehan
My roommate recommended Far East Motors and I would recommend Far East Motors to everyone too. I had an incredibly positive experience. Watchman is a hoot and made sure I felt comfortable about my car here. I felt Far East Motors provided a speedy service for a fair price. Job well done and I will be a regular.

Our Honda CRV was badly damaged by someone who ran a red light and broadsided us to the tune to over $8000. Everything was wrong mechanically as well as the body. They had to work with our insurance company out of California and Mr. Watchman was absolutely wonderful. The shop did take a long time to complete, but the car was flawless when returned. We couldn't have been happier. The paint matched perfectly and the mechanics worked great. I know they fussed over it because they went back to the insurance when they needed to fix more things then originally thought. They are very particular and I do so appreciate it.
Nicole Ezeh
the reviews speak for themselves. they give great service and everyone i’ve talked to has been super friendly and approachable. there is no air of suspicion with them like there can be at other mechanics. i believe they do good work at reasonable prices. they might be a bit more expensive than some other shops, but you know you’re getting superior work with the most reasonable parts available and they refuse to start a repair before you give them verbal consent. the bill you see in the beginning is the bill you pay, unless they find something else while they’re working and you sign off on it. they’ll always explain the additional costs, why the repair needs to be done, and an honest answer to the perennial question “can this repair wait a few months?” i took my 20 year old Camry here until her dying breath, and now I take my newer Mazda there too. unless they close or I move out of town, my cars will be in this shop and nowhere else!
Lissy Krainin
THE best. I'll never go to another auto body shop as long as they are open and I am in the area. Prompt. Extremely communicative and detailed in findings/recommendations, etc. They provide pictures of the issues, detailed descriptions, level of concern (high/medium/low) and text it all to you as soon as the inspection is done. Plus they are just the loveliest human beings. 10/10
Damian Steele
When I was faced with an unfortunate break-in to my car, and I was unaware of my local car repair shops, I decided to try Far East Motors. They took my car in next day after a quick call to the shop explaining my situation(non-driveable). There were some backorders on parts, but they communicated and worked with me the whole time. They were professional and courteous. Watchman's service skills made me feel welcomed and like a local auto shop should. The repairs came out nice, and they truly went out of their way to help me. This will be my go to spot for future repairs.
Alison McClay
I'm so glad I found Far East Motors after moving to the area 4+ years ago! I tell my coworkers and others about the newsletters, promotions, and customer service they deliver, and all of my friends that aren't in the area wish they had an auto shop like this near them. They look out for their customers and are accommodating with schedules when things go wrong. Case in point, my battery failed the Friday evening before Thanksgiving; they had a new battery delivered overnight and installed Saturday morning. During this time, a charm fell off my keychain sometime during this visit (and I didn't even notice it was gone). There was nothing that could tie it to me, but they held onto it until I came into my next appointment. Far East Motors will forever have my business while I'm in the area!
Kelton Gonzalez
Amazing mechanics and staff who were very transparent and went above and beyond to make the experience feel smooth and worth it. Great communication, friendly and clear advice and suggestions. I will be coming back !
Sammi Amoako-Boateng
Great family business! Everyone was extremely nice. The owner Jonny Snr is super humble and very professional. Jonny Jnr worked on my car. Paul at the front desk was very nice and professional. I found a home for my car now. Thank you guys!!!
Another great service at Far East Motors today!! Thank you Team!!
Anita Phoenix (Steph)
This is my new go-to mechanic. It was so easy to set up an appointment and they took my car as soon as I arrived! No wait! The staff were very helpful and had great customer service. They found that I needed to fix my brake lights and get my oil changed along with a few other things. The pricing was fair and everything came with a receipt. My car was done in a few hours and completely back to normal!! Recommending to all of my friends and coworkers! Thank you Far East!
Reena K. Shah
The team took great care of my car after a rainy day collision. They were very professional in working with my insurance company, and their online estimate and payment system were a breeze to use, sparing me from return trips to the shop. Watchman repaired my engine and completed the body work, and he kept me updated at every step in the process. The best part was that the repairs to my vehicle were finished in 1/3 of the time I was anticipating! (I opted to wait until my schedule permits to repaint the new body panels.) He took my car from crunched to cruisin’ again. 😎
Paul Makfinsky
I highly recommend this shop. The staff is great. They are responsive, perform quality repairs, and are in touch with technology. I was really impressed by their use of technology to educate its customers without the need to physically come and inspect the work. Truly hard to find repair shops that are honest and provide this level of service to clients. Anything I cant do myself, I will be going to them for in the future.
Ann Kem
I used this shop for the first time when my catalytic converter was stolen. When speaking to Paul, he was very professional and was able to get me an appointment quickly and the work was done on time and a competitive price. I recommend them highly and now they will be my place to go. Thanks again to Paul Jones and Mr. Sykes.
Robert Hammond
Pleasant, highly informed, efficient, thorough, - hard to find a weakness. I was most impressed with their 2-year parts and labor warranty on all their work. And they have 2 ASE Certified Master technicians!
Brian Montgomery
Finally a local business that listens to their customers and transparency with services and fees. I recently had routine maintenance completed the week of September 5, 2022. The careful review of my vehicle, maintenance performed (oil change, tire rotation and opting for the optional fuel cleaning service) and outstanding customer service, this is the place to go in Silver Spring! 'Watchman' is simply a delight to work with as I truly thank him and the rest of the team for service above themselves!
My vehicle was clean, no interior marks or blemishes, as I will be sure to visit again for auto service needs.
Emily Gjovik
Amazing communication and transparency. Incredibly impressed by their customer service and quick service. Will definitely be returning!
willie gluck (Commander Bozo)
Diagnosed noise problem and remediated. Also noted a couple of other problems missed by the dealer. Good communication, fair prices. Half the price charged by dealer.
Montana De La Cruz
Far East Motors was able to help me out when my car started leaking oil. They were able to call me a tow to their location and was able to get my car in that day. Even with the snow and the holiday weekend they were able to get my car back to me within 48 hours. The workers and mechanics were awesome and were able to walk me though the diagnostics and process of getting my car repaired. You could tell they were experienced and were able to answer any questions I had. Will definitely use them again and will recommend them to everyone!
Jeffrey Hill
I googled "auto repair near me". Several shops popped up. I called the top 3. Far East was the only one to respond. I received several text messages to schedule an appointment. Once I took my car in, Watchman, remained in constant contact with me. I needed significant work that would have costed thousands more at a dealership. The work was done professionally. The prices were fair. The customer service was awesome. I highly recommend Far East for your automotive needs. You won't be disappointed.
Franklyn Musgrave
Always receive,l honest, high-quality service from John, Watchman, Paul, and the good folks at Far East Motors.
james roberts
Far East Motors is our favorite auto repair shop. We’ve taken our cars there for well over ten years. I never feel they overcharge or recommend unnecessary service. Watchman and Paul provide honest thorough information.
Lein Soltan
Great experience. Relatively fast and very communicative. This is my only mechanic experience in the area so far, so can't comment on the prices but they seemed reasonable enough. Great service and also great location - several coffee shops within walking distance you can go work while your car is being worked on. Will come back
Reena Shah
I was so relieved to find Far East Motors after a minor collision. The team was very professional in working with my insurance company and providing a detailed estimate for repairs. Their online estimate and payment system was very easy to use and convenient, allowing me not make multiple trips into shop. Watchman took great care of my vehicle’s engine repairs and body work in the speediest fashion, keeping me updated at every step in the process. Plus, the work was done in 1/3 of the time I anticipated, and it looks great! They transformed my car from crunches to cruising’ again. 😎
Tasha Harris
So, I want to say first off Mr. Watchman is the best! I have literally never given a review online but felt compelled to give one after my experience. This place was by far the best experience I had in auto repair. They were very thorough and patient as they spelled out all the issues with my car to help me understand what was urgent and what could potentially wait. My car was driving rough and had a lot of mechanical issues. It now drives as smooth as it did when I bought the car.
From customer service to quality of work this is a 5 star establishment. I love that they send you an electronic document to view the estimates as well as a visual image of the inspection itself to see where the problem areas were with my car. This thoroughness allowed me to make the most feasible decision financially in getting my car fixed. You won’t go wrong with your car by visiting Far East Motors.
Chantell Edmonds
As always, Paul did a wonderful job. I feel confident that the inspection was done with the utmost care and attention. I repairs were addressed in a timely fashion and I feel safe driving the SUV. Now I have five vehicles Far East will be servicing.
Courtney W
This place is great! I was pretty stressed out after the alternator in my Lexus quit on me. I found this place while headed to another shop. I decided to do business here because of they specialize in Lexus vehicles and because of Johnny, one of the Mechanics. He was able to service my car the same day as a walk-in and he was just super helpful. I also experienced Great service from Mr. Watchmen at the front desk - He's pretty funny too. Great shop, work, and tech.
Yael Flusberg
Friendly, fast and affordable service! Watchman didn’t try to sell me the most expensive fix but listened to what I wanted and was able to do the work and return my vehicle same day. Helps too that the shop is an easy walk to the metro. Will definitely be back!
Dan Kelly
Great front desk staff. Communicated their progress. Online authorization for extra work. Easy and clear
Anita C
Staff at Far East Motors are professional and prices are reasonable to affordable (only used them for selected services though). They do specialize in Toyota makes. Their customer management system or software is great, it breaks down the total cost to service and recommended repairs nicely-easy to read for non-technical people. Transparent pricing and estimate. Great work! I recommend them. (trying to add those keywords)
Theresa Lyons
We have been going to Far East Motors with our Jeep, Expedition and Explorer for years. They do such good work and very honest about how they run their business. Can't say enough good things about them!
Aaliyah Butler
I come to Far East for all my service needs from oil change to auto body repairs. They are always very kind and patience with me. They also work very swiftly on my vehicle. I know my vehicle is safe with them.
Abdulaziz Almuslem
Fantastic service. Had an electrical problem with the signals. Honda dealer was unable to get me an appointment within a reasonable period, but FEM had the Honda checked in within the same day, and was ready for pick up the next with signals sorted out.
Anushka Patel
Mr. Sykes was very helpful in helping me get my oil change done! Great service!
Scott Vannett
They were extremely honest and communicated with me through every step. I 100% will go back to Far East for any future car problems.
Mark Verschell
I needed to get a used car inspection done for my nephew. He was coming down from NYC to purchase a car from a private seller. They got me in the next morning and ran a full computer check, visual inspection, and a test drive for a very reasonable price. Plus they were able to evaluate the hybrid battery pack. We got a complete inspection report and estimated repair costs for the few things they did find. I have used this repair shop for going on 2 decades and have had nothing but A+ service from them.
Jane Mendez
Excellent service! Was upfront with costs and car maintenance. Def my go-to!
Jafar Moukalled
The employees at Far East Motors were very helpful with my repair! Took only about 15 minutes for my oil change and they were very nice and they had fair pricing as well. I recommend this place! Best repair shop in MD!
Nia Cole
I’ve been going to Far East Motors for almost 10 years. The staff is absolutely incredible, always attentive, responsive, and communicative. The work is always done in a timely fashion, for a great price, and with the utmost care and quality
Mike Panetta
Been going here for years now. They do good work and get it done quickly and at fair prices. Never feel like I'm being sold a bunch of stuff like I do when I go to the dealer for an issue. We've trusted our Subaru, Honda, and Toyotas to them and have been happy every time.
Greg Goldstein
Far East was great. I’m not one to rave (or leave reviews at all, for that matter) but if you own a vehicle and you live anywhere near silver spring, this is where you want to go for anything your car needs.
They took a series of pictures with captions that explained problems, possible solutions, detailed estimates for prices on each thing, and send it to you in a way that allows you to authorize or deny any or all of the work in a no-pressure environment where you feel informed.
The technicians could have easily made $700 off me if they wanted to, but instead found a good, permanent fix that only cost me $80.
The service was professional and friendly, easily the best automotive experience I’ve had in more then 15 years. Bravo.
Nicole “WSHS Cheerleading” Palange
The staff at Far East Motors was incredible! We had a customer/friend who moved to their neck of the woods and was in need of an automotive technician. The front counter was pleasant, the technicians were efficient and knowledgeable, and their technology is awesome! Truly appreciate all they did for us! So friendly & trustworthy!! THANK YOU!
Armstrong Knight
Top auto chef right here. The men at the front desk really kept the facilitation process going between the guys running repairs and myself. Allowed me many custom options of repair packages. If one package didn't work, they go back to the drawing board. High energy and fast output. Ready in no time. I'm happy. Custom built my repair package based on my needs. Fixed it within days. Then I furthered my custom repairing until my budget meet satisfaction. They were very patient with my decision making process. I will be returning to this shop for any further repairs. As for price, I don't know. I didn't shop around. Simply the level of trouble the brotha went through was worth it.
Cindy Norell
Friendly and competent service. Far East is our “go to” service provider.
Barbara Stapor
We have been using Far East Motors for several years for our 2017 Honda CRV and 2009 BMW 528. They perform quality work that is completed on time and their communications are always courteous and professional. I periodically price check their estimates for work and always find them to be very competitive. Many thanks for all the years of great service.
James Fortin
Far East Motors is my go-to mechanic in the DC area. They’ve done quite a bit of work on my old Honda CR-V over the last couple years and it’s always been high quality. The customer service is top notch. They might be a little more expensive than other shops, but in my experience, you get what you pay for—they don’t try to sell you something you don’t need, and the person working on your car actually cares about fixing/maintaining it. As long as that remains the case, I will keep going back.
Jack Barry
Paul from Far East Motors was professional and personable. He was able to give me a second opinion on the work the dealer said my car needed to fix the AC, and found out I didn’t need to replace everything they said. I was able to save a bit of money and get my brake fluid flushed out at the same time. I will definitely be back!
Mya Carmichael
Very helpful, knowledgeable, and reliable, great communication and flexibility. Friendly service always.
Caroline Kohan
Visiting Far East Motors is a pleasant experience for I know my car will be taken care by the best of the best in this profession.
I'm amazed by Mr. Watchman's knowledge on car and auto parts. His compassion in customer's best interest is phenomenal.
I trust my Master Technician, Mr. Johnny completely. No matter what service(s) I may need, I know that Johnny will make sure they are done perfectly.
I believe everyone who works at Far East Motors deserves a praise for their professionalism, and I recommend Far East Motors wholeheartedly!!!
Aaron Paige
My Grandmother mother and I as well as other family members have been going to Far East Motors for years. Everyone there is top tier professional and thorough. Watchman and Paul always take time and explain with great detail what’s going on with our vehicles. Everyone at Far East adds to the aura of a family environment and it’s much appreciated. Years Great work and a Great environment. Keep up the great job!

My wife's car had been having the same ongoing issues over the past year. We had taken it to 2 other mechanics, one was a large dealership and one was a small mom and pop who previously did work on my car. Both were unsure of what the problem was, however the large dealership told me they eventually "fixed" it. Three months and hundreds of dollars spent later, we were back at square one. I saw good reviews about Far East and gave them a shot. They were amazing! Had the car dropped off after hours and received a call first thing the next morning. Paul was able to diagnose the issue the same day and had parts ordered and installed within 48 hours. All around great experience. Reasonably priced, knowledgeable, professional and prompt! Car runs great!
James Curry Jr.
My Dodge Nitro had a blown head gasket and failed emissions testing twice but Far East Fixed the codes, oxygen sensors and my truck finally passed emissions without spending thousands of dollars for new system. When you want excellent customer service, trained technicians with technology Far East Motors is the 5 Star Shop. Thanks Team ❤️👍
Zack Roach
Needed to get a wheel alignment done, and had scheduling conflicts that made it difficult. Far East squeezed me in to their schedule on a day that worked for me and did a great job with the alignment and regular maintenance (oil change, etc.). Thanks, Far East, for providing exceptional customer service as always!
E Bey
A friend highly recommended we take our 17-year old Acura MDX to Far East Motors. From the initial telephone conversation, I was impressed with Watchman's casual conversation and lightheartedness. Even though we're no where near Silver Spring, we felt it was worth it to take the trip. And we were not disappointed! Watchman was awesome. Our vehicle was left with him for three days but during that period, he was in constant contact, either via telephone, text or emails (with photos) explaining the issues with the vehicle and patiently answered our many, many questions. His price was reasonable, considering the multiple things we needed done, yet lower than what the other dealers charged. Going forward, Far East Motors will be our one and only service contact. So grateful for them!!!
BRENDA RICHARDSON
I have been having our cars serviced at Far East for 15+ years. They never do more than necessary and will let you know what you should be prepared to do at the next service as well as tell you what can wait a bit. Me Watchman always looks out for us, asking about the family and just general conversation. It’s nice to walk into a shop where everyone knows your name!
Laura Williams
I’ve been coming here for many years and several cars. Their work is top notch. My car has low mileage for its age. They always perform a diagnostic, then recommend what I need.
Dean S.
Brought in my Honda for an assessment of my car. They provided a solid and easy to follow plan, with options with options on when my maintenance could be completed. They also reinforced the things that needed to be done now versus the things that can be done at my leisure.
A great team and they communicated via text and email to keep me informed. Grest experience here ... I'll be back.
Sharon Robinson
Far East Motors is the best. Mr. Watchman took good care of my car. They found the center pipe was bent. Don’t know what was hit. Car was vibrating. Car is now fixed vibrating is gone. Pipe was bent back in place. This will be my car repair place for any major car repairs. Oh forgot to say car was fixed with less than a hour. Thanks Again Mr. Watchman.
Hannah Finnie
I love Far East Motors! They're organized, honest, and attuned to what you're looking for with your car and how to get you there. Really recommend them!
Michele Moller
Far East Motors is always welcoming, professional, and willing to work with their clients to perform repairs within their budget. They have even done drop-off service for me since they know I only have one car! They are truly the best.
Jonathan Bryson
Far East Motors rises to the occasion again. This able repair shop has serviced my Honda Odyssey van for years and extended the life past 170,000 miles. Yesterday, I just needed a oil change and a quick checkover to be ready for an unplanned road trip. They fit me in and got it done quickly. Big or small job on our two Hondas, they get it done well and are always friendly and accommodating. Thanks Far East!!
Catherine Daniels
Far East Motors went the extra mile to repair my car and have it ready by the end of the day. Not only was the service good, the prices were reasonable. I recommend Mr. Watchman at Far East Motors to all of my family and friends.
Duchess II
I was totally impressed with the service. The cost of the the service I received was fair and definitely less than the dealership. As I sat there waiting for my car ( they were nice enough to accommodate the fact that I needed to wait to have the repair job done.) a number of satisfied customers came in. I definitely plan to use them again soon. From my experience, if you are looking for a fair price, good work and pleasant service, try Far East Motors.
Greg Davis
I am fairly new to Silver Spring and found Far East motors online and took a chance. Customer Service was outstanding and the quality of work was excellent. Plus the turn around time was less than 24 hours ( I didn’t bring my vehicle in until the afternoon). I was told that most cars are repaired the same day. The cost of the service was very reasonable. The service manager Mr. Watchman Sykes is welcoming, knowledgeable and very helpful. In the future I will always bring my vehicles here. I highly recommend this shop.
Gian
I'm a new customer at Far East Motors and called in late afternoon to see if they can squeeze me in for an oil change and to check the rumbling in my car. They were able to squeeze me in the same day and got my oil change done. Paul gave me more information on the rumbling noise and told me that parts will be in early the next day.
The team at Far East Motors are very professional, they communicate promptly, and quick service. Will definitely be a repeat customer.
Mark
Took my car in for an inspection prior to a trip to Florida. As always, they did a very thorough inspection & let me know what they found & recommended. They always do a very good job. I highly recommend it!
Margaret Albamonte
I LOVE the way Far East Motors does business! My car sounds great, I got an electronic list for the quote with details and (good) prices and NO PRESSURE because I need to prioritize my spending. I have already scheduled my husband's car for service!
JACQUELINE KOZDRAS
As a new resident of DC, I asked my neighbors for a recommendation for an auto shop for my Honda Fit. The most enthusiastic was for Far East Motors and I add mine to that. I especially like the tekmetric online system that shows all the areas reviewed and recommended services, with accept or decline buttons for the customer to choose. I felt that everything was well explained and I was not at all pressured to have unless necessary work done.
Lauren-Michelle Smith
I’ve been going to Far East Motors for years and appreciate how they take care of my vehicle. I’ve since moved out of the Silver Spring area, but still prefer to use this shop for regular maintenance or any issues. They’re always friendly and professional!
Fran Toler
I’ve been bringing my Subaru to Far East Motors for over two years, about 8 visits over 45,000 miles, and I am very happy with their work and personal service. Although they are not bargain-cheap, their prices are fair and i’ve never experienced them gouging or even up-selling me.
I have had a little body work done, most of the rest has been maintenance including tires and brakes. No major repairs yet. The shop is efficiently run, the work seems good, and both front desk guys are excellent communicators, which makes a big difference
MKE
I must say that I never look forward to having to deal with car repair shops. I always feel that I was taken advantage of one way or another, but not at Far East Motors. Today was my first visit and it was great. They are honest and showed all the needed work in pictures and measurements. The price was reasonable and they finished the work in a timely manner. Mr. Sykes was a great help and took his time to explain everything. I am grateful car maintenance is going to be a pleasant experience from now on.
Tasha Prados
They are so lovely!!! Amazing system where you can review & approve any maintenance, with photos. Great explanations, honest folks. Support this wonderful small business!! Took my Hyundai Elantra here and they kept her running 😀 Highly recommend …
Stephen Hurley
I have been taking my car to these guys for years. My dad and best friend also use them. Always solid service. Not the absolute cheapest but I’d rather pay a bit more to know my truck is taken care of.
Martha Medina
EDIT: After expressing my dissatisfaction with my experience, the owner reached out to me himself and worked with me to get me what I needed. I appreciated the effort and was relieved to finally get my car in "pass" status. Far East Motors will work with you when you need it!
I came to get a car inspection and had a pleasant experience the first time. I was told by the owner, Mr. Moser, that my rear shocks were leaking but that everything else looked great. Their prices were too high for my law student budget so I went elsewhere to get the issue fixed. I came back (granted over a month later but with nothing new except the issue I got fixed) and I was given a list of other issues - this time by the manager -(minor things like a small crack in the windshield and a rear reflector broken). Mind you, these "issues" were all there the first time I took it but they were not pointed out. Now they refuse to pass it because of these two things that were present the first time I brought the car in. Needless to say I am extremely disappointed with this. I had a good experience the first time but not worth the headache I'm having now.I don't recommend.
Abraham Morris
Far East Motors has provided maintenance to my Honda Element for over 10 years and I have been a satisfied customer the entire length of this time. The family atmosphere and professional customer service is to be complimented. From the reception desk to the work area the customer service is wonderful. Furthermore, whenever I am uncertain or lack knowledge about a repair, the crew takes the time to explain the problem and share the options of repair with me. I greatly appreciate the transparency that removes the stress of uncertainty from me. Overall, I would highly suggest that you experience the professional service at Far East Motorshonesty, transparency, professionalism, family atmosphere and a clean shop.
Dawn Davis
Updating my review. Nearly twenty years of going to this shop and we couldn't be more pleased. Far East Motors recently performed a complicated air conditioning repair in good time and kept us informed every step of the way with photos. Above par service. They will always be our mechanic!
--Original Review--
Hands down the best auto repair shop in the Washington DC Metro area. And beyond! We moved to Annapolis ten years ago and still take our cars to Far East Motors for their friendly, fair, and reliable service.
Philip Curtin
Very flexible working with me. Great communication. Very friendly.
K Munir
Far East Motors has served my auto Lexus LS 460L AWD repair needs reliably and professionally. John, the owner, runs a tight ship and the shop provides a warranty for all of their work. Paul and Watchman (front desk) provide detailed estimates that are fair and include prospective repair estimates for future work. I trust Far East Motors and I am a repeat customer.
John Thompson
I have been taking my cars to Far East Motors for over 20 years. They provide top notch customer service. They are extremely knowledgeable and the prices are fair. Most important - they have NEVER recommended service to me that was not necessary. There is nothing like an honest and trustworthy mechanic.
Maja Persson
Pleasant and professional, nice reception and good system for review and approval of services
Esau Venzen
Watchman and company did a wonderful job. On March 25th, I was assisted by another gentleman who did great as well. Even when an issue arose, they took the time to explain things to me in a very professional manner! I'll definitely return and encourage the people I know to have their vehicles serviced here as well!
jason cherry
Was hearing a noise coming from my back wheels. Took it to Far East Motors and found that my rotors were rusted. Had to replace all four rotors and brake pads. They had me in and out fast and their pricing was reasonable. The car is running great now, very happy with the service and will use them again in the future.
Rob LeMay
Great group of people and easy to schedule! Able to drop my car off at night and they called me the next morning about the services (as well as sent a form to my phone which you can approve/deny services which is awesome). Will definitely be going back next time.
Nick Kampf
Great Mechanics and fair pricing ... they will do a great job
Kathleen Healy
They were very helpful in answering my questions as to what needed to be done now and what can wait.

My first time there. Impressed by how clean, neat and organized not only the shop but the reception area were. Friendly attentive service. Everything explained well and clearly about what I should expect re assessment of car. Timely update re parts delivers and estimated time to fix. In by 8 and ready by 3 for my car’s needs. Staff is appreciative of new customers and makes one feel welcome. Car is running well and 2 year or 2k mi warranty!

The staff at Far East Motors have been the most honest, fair, and sincere mechanics I have ever met. Paul and Watchman who are at the front desk are both courteous, professional, and really take their time to help each individual customer. They repaired body work on my car in a reasonable amount of time and I couldn't be happier with their work. Worth every penny!
Alexandra M
Paul and his team are the best. It’s hard to find trust worthy car repairs that don’t try to nickle and dime you or give bad advice just to take your money. As long as I have a vehicle, I will always use Far East motors. Excellent service , excellent recommendations, excellent repairs, excellent customer service.
Ron Haag
Had another good experience with Far East Motors. I noticed a metallic grinding noise on my way to work and felt it should be looked at ASAP. I called them and they were able to get my car in for service and finish that same day! In addition the noise issue (front steering knuckle rubbing against brake rotors), they let me know my back brakes were shot (and I knew it had been a while since they had been replaced), so they replaced those as well. The price was fair, especially for the quick service.
Watchman is a “rock” at this place for a reason. His customer service skills are excellent and he’s a friendly face who can answer all your questions.

I have a 2018 Nissan Rogue. I recently noticed that the sunroof began leaking. I called around to different shops and was shocked at the quotes they were giving me. Luckily, I found Far East Motors. They gave me a reasonable quote and got me in quickly to fix the problem! They finished the work the same day and were very responsive to my questions. I definitely will be using them in the future for any further issues with my Nissan!
Cheryl Strange
Have used Far East for decades. Appreciate thorough, honest and fair pricing on their work, which is excellent.
Special Travelers
Exemplary atmosphere, communication and service. I took my older Nissan there for a second opinion on a long list of work another shop had recommended. Paul, the very pleasant assistant manger, gently informed me that the car might not be worth investing more money, and recommended one test to verify. The verdict was indeed that it required more work than it had life left, and they recommend it was time for a trade-in. Clean, friendly office/ waiting room. Professional and reliable.
Derrick Alexander
Received exceptional service on my 2018 Acura TLX! They were very professional and exceeded all of my expectations! My car came back cleaner and running smoother than when I dropped it off. Will be utilizing them for all my car maintenance and issues from now on! 😃 …
Eric Reiffenstein
I recently needed brake work done on my sons 18 year old Ford Focus. The folks at Far East Motors were very pleasant, and I was able to book an appointment online. The quickly diagnosed the nature of the problem, the car needed the rear brake lines replaced, and they had the car ready that day. I will definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a good mechanic.
Bria
Took my car in for a MD inspection and tire rotation. They inspected the car and it took a lot longer than I anticipated BUT it was the day after Thanksgiving and nobody wants to work the day after a holiday (including myself). My car ended up failing due to the window tint and I had to come back to get it removed and reinspected. Other than the long wait, I had no issues with this place. Everyone was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Thanks guys!
Lenora R. Fuller-McCall
I find the staff of Far East offer consistently First Class Customer Service. They are honest, trustworthy, highly professional and reliable as well as friendly. I have been a very happy, satisfied customer for over two decades.
Chelsea Crawford
Far East Motors is the only mechanic I trust. Their work is thorough, fast, and customer service is top notch. For years I was a firm believer in only servicing my car at the dealership, but I find the quality of the work at Far East Motors greatly exceeds the dealerships I’ve visited. I’m a customer for life.
Mike Heimowitz
I have been coming to Far East off and on for many years and multiple cars. I feel the most important trait of any auto repair shop is honesty. Other shops are always pushing repairs that may be okay to do, but are not necessary. I've come here often for second opinions and saved a lot of money by avoiding or at least holding off for long periods on doing repairs or maintenance that were not really needed. The staff is honest and friendly and they do great work.
Patrick Mendez
They fixed part of a knocking noise that was the cause of most of it at low speeds but the main problem was the wheel bearing of the car. Upon hearing the noise again at higher speeds, I brought it right back and they were super chill about going on a road test to figure it out and when they heard it, he immediately brought me back to the shop and lifted the car and even brought me over to stethoscope the bearing and showing me what the problem was. Compared to some mechanics that don’t even want you look at them???😂 A-1 service. Came back the very next day to get the bearings fixed and this is what sold me on the trust. Plenty of mechanics could have easily charged me for the whole job but they went out of the way to test the bearing that was really bad after it was changed and found out that the problem was fixed from just that one. Being relatively new bearings, the only problem having been defective parts, I didn’t mind having only one side changed and ended up saving a lot!
Harriet
I've been going there for years. They are thorough, honest and on time. I never have to question whether my car is well cared for. Watchman is a delight to work with and has always advised me well.
Melinda Riley
I relocated to Maryland by driving my Kia Sorento from Georgia. My right turn signals, in the front and back, went out during the drive when I was 2 hours outside of Maryland. I took my vehicle to this shop. They found the problem and were dedicated to seeking out the appropriate parts to replace the ones that were no good. I highly recommend them for servicing any vehicle.
Dana Wright
We love Far East Motors! Jon, Paul and Watchman are always so helpful and trustworthy. It is easy to drop the car off at night and they call in the morning with details about suggested repairs. I recommend them highly.
Dee Dee
ID PERSONALLY LIKE TO THANK MR.WATCHMEN for his Efforts in working on my vehicle as well as His Effortless attempts of Communication as well as Fixing All Issues I Had.. If I could give More Stars I would ‼️...I RECOMMEND Watchmen for Any Repair he is very Professional and Honest.
Dani Stoller
I cannot say how incredible the service at Far East Motors is! They are kind, they are efficient, and they make sure you get the quality care your car needs without trying to upsell or overcharge.
I came to Far East with a completely busted front tire and everything out of alignment and they had the entire thing finished before 3pm! I can not recommend them enough!
Daelyn Moon
Ask for Watchman! I had an emergency tire repair- he not only wakes me through the process of what needed to be done, but also provided cost effective options. 10/10 would recommend and will be coming back.
Bruce Redcay
The staff and service were very professional. A thorough diagnostic was done and shared with me before work was performed. Options were explained clearly. I have used Far East Motors for many years.
Designer Girl
Again, another great repair of my Subaru Forester...without any $urprises. The Far East Team is not only highly qualified in auto repair, but is also one of the nicest group of people to work with. They understand the concept of customer service, get the parts ordered in time, and service my car on time, too. They manage the history of my car and know in a few seconds what was done in the past, and what's needed down the road as well as any recalls/warranty work from Subaru. And I appreciate that the shop is clean and the waiting room is inviting. They're way above and beyond the ordinary repair shop, so that's why I give them 5 stars.
Michael Gelman
Been coming to Far East for many years. Always good service, always friendly people. Kept my Honda Del Sol on the road for over 15 years. Does good work on our elderly Prius as well
Paulette B
This was my first experience with Far East Motors and they went out of their way to help me feel comfortable dropping off my 24 yr old beloved Honda with strangers, and after hours, for a yet-to-be diagnosed problem. It was an easy fix fortunately, and they kept it simple and stuck to the issue I broght it on for, not throwing in "free advice" on other issues my old car might have. They explained the diagnosis and repair thoroughly over the phone, and it was explained clearly on my record of repair. Much appreciated!
Andrew Malone
Far East Motors has been taking care of my car for six years now. They treat you fairly and care about keeping cars operating safely and efficiently. They provide good value for the money, and they stand behind their work. It's also fun to walk into the shop - they're fun people.
Jonathan Rushbrook
Far Easy Motors was an awesome find. The staff are extremely helpful and have gone above and beyond for me. They have always walked and shown me everything that I have needed doing to my car. I would highly recommend checking these people out.
April C
Far East Motors are Honest, and have very competitive prices. They care about you as a customer, but even more so about making sure you have quality work done. Highly recommend these guys!
Michael Akopian
I brought in my car initially for an oil change but told them of the other issues, including a messed up door that wouldn't open all the way. During maintenance they made note of other suggested fixes, some I accepted and some I declined. When I came to pick the car up, not only was I given some suggestions on where to get parts for the maintenance I declined but the door was fixed along with a few other small things that I now don't have to worry about. I will be coming back here and recommend it to anyone in the area. Thank you!
Carol Friedman
We are thrilled with the service at Far East Motors! Our Volvo intermittently displayed a message, “low beam bulb failure,” but the headlights were on. One mechanic said it was a short and to take it to Volvo, another said we had a bad alternator and battery, so we took it to Far East Motors for a third opinion. After a complete diagnostic, we were told the battery and alternator were perfect! They noticed a flicker in the left headlight and suggested that it be replaced. In a car 7 1/2 years old with the original headlights we changed both. The flickering stopped and so did the warning message! I am extremely grateful to the wonderful staff at Far East Motors who now have new customers. I give them my highest recommendation!
ARTHUR LIOU
Far East motors is awesome,we were visiting some friends in Maryland and we had a mishap with our vehicle. They immediately took care of our needs and fixed the car better them it was.in mybook,they were a godsend. Will definitely recommend them.
Lisa Marie Laegreid Gatti
My husband and I have been using Far East Motors to service our Toyota Camry since 2009 or so, and we have always been very satisfied. Watchman Sykes is the manager I usually communicate with and he is both personable and knowledgeable. He is also good at breaking down my car's maintenance or repair needs in a way that a non-technical person like myself can understand. And he is honest in providing you with options that other car service places might not. For example, a couple of years ago we got some pretty severe scratches on our passenger side rear door and panel. He gave me the estimate for what the full repair would cost (and I checked with my brother-in-law who works at a car dealership and he said the pricing was definitely very fair), but when I said that it was a little more than what my husband and I were prepared to spend just then he came up with other options. He ended up being able to make the scratches and dents much less visible and completely protected from any rust for a fraction of the cost. I am grateful for Far East Motor's great care for my vehicle, and respect for my budget.
Leslie Holley
I love Far East Motors. I’ve been going to them forever many years now and they always tell it to me straight without trying to price gauge me. The team is very friendly and informative.
Alicia Vining
Honestly, I wish that I could give them more stars! They are such an incredible company. I have moved here for college, have low finances, and have been scammed by car companies in the past. Far East Motors makes me feel so comfortable, work with my school schedule, but most importantly they care. They are honest with me about what my car actually NEEDS now at the time. I am so thankful that I found them and will continue to go back!
Jeff Farley
I had looked around on the web for an independent auto mechanic to get a second opinion about work that my dealership wanted to do. Far East Motors had good reviews so I tried them out. They did not disappoint! Incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, professional and reasonably priced. They are my new go-to auto mechanic
Keith Katz
A family friend called me and said he had a fender bender near Washington DC and now his vehicle was overheating. He was looking for a shop near there to have it looked at. I knew Far East was in Silver Springs and gave Jon a call. He arranged for a tow truck, stayed late after hours to see the vehicle, and then rearranged his schedule to get the car done on Saturday. In my opinion he went above and beyond, and the vehicle was ready, fixed properly, and for a fair price. My friend was able to get the vehicle home to PA and is very pleased. Thanks Jon and Far East for your excellent work and timely service in helping my friend get back home.
Helen Shepherd
They found a used part, saving me $600. They kept me up to date on progress, and stayed late when i was late picking up the car. They test drove the car to make sure the repair worked.
When we brought our other car in, they researched it found that the problem was covered by warranty but had to be fixed by the Honda dealer. They could have not told us and had us pay them to do the repair, but they told us and they even called ahead to the dealer to confirm it would be covered. So our car was fixed for free thanks to Far East Motor, and you can trust them.
Annie Neary
I've been bringing my Honda Civics here for the past 5 or 6 years. Everyone there is so courteous and helpful. Drop the car off in the morning, expect a call with more details or even an emailed estimate, and everything will be ready by 2 or 3pm. I've had regular services, tires patched, brakes replaced, broken key fobs with electronic buttons replaced, AC filters replaced . . .
They really take everything apart during a regular service and give you a report on all the wear and tear. It's nice to hear options about how long I have until an expensive repair like brake replacement. I've called the shop during flustered moments when I needed a tow truck recommendation and what to do when the key got stuck in my ignition and the steering wheel seized up. These guys feel like family.
Jamila Taylor
I was able to drop my car off and leave my keys in the over night box. Watchman called me promptly the following morning with details about my service needs. This was one of the most seamless maintenance experiences I've had in a long time. Definitely recommend them to others.
Dawit Lakew
Customer service personnel at the service counter are very helpful and professional. Overall, I had a positive experience at Far east motors for the last 12-15 years and It was never different the last time I was there last Tuesday. Although, I do not know the mechasnics personally, I have always been satisfied by the great job they have been doing to my car.
Thanks Fareast Motors
Keep up the great job!
Mr. Kay
Was looking for where to get my car fixed with original parts from lexus. Went many some places but they said it was expensive to get it from the Lexus. When I went to this Guy (Watchman Sykes). He ordered the part direct from Lexus company. Although it took extra two days from the repair estimate time but Sykes did absolutely a great job. My car looked like nothing had happened to it. I give him 5 stars. He really good and very sincere. Always keeping in touch with me as the repair was going on. Thanks Mr. Watchman Sykes.
Steve Wardell
I've used Far East Motors the past two years for serving our older RSX. The service has been reasonably priced and very friendly. The work seems quality as best I can tell. They have night pick-up (if you have an extra set of keys) and drop off. They're only about a 10 minute walk from Silver Spring Metro, so pretty convenient.
Cho Duet
I've been going to Far East Motors many years. The owner is customer focused and his staff are extremely fair and respectful. He is also the former master mechanic for Wilson Honda back in the day. Above all, I find their prices better than the dealer, but they are also certified like the dealer, meaning your Honda/Toyota doesn't lose warranty if you let them service it -- which is huge. Above all, I think they are very honest. They've been more than forthcoming on issues that I could wait till later to repair and advise me with sound advice (even sometimes to their disadvantage) when I ask for their opinion. I will say they are very busy (for obvious reasons) -- so to be fair -- you should periodically expect them to revise their schedule -- but rarely does it happen and if it does -- it isn't more than a couple of hours. You would be hard press to find a more honest, comprehensive, garage for your Japanese import.
Jasmine Chi
Best service in Silver Spring ! Not only reliable, but honest and dependable. They never try to sell me something I don't need. They provided me an estimate by email with pictures -very cool with recommendations, including informing me when I DON'T need to pay for extra services, or when I can wait a few months to have something changed or fixed. Glad to have that annoying a/c light off the dash too - Thanks Far East !
Kenley Farmer
I have a Japanese import and Far East Motors has been so great about servicing this somewhat unique car. I had battery issues and they replaced the battery and installed a conversion - now it’s running great!
Neal Kayastha
The online repair shop I trust to work on my car. I won’t let anyone else touch my car when it comes to needing repairs done. Been going there for over 6 years now and have never had an issue. You can trust their mechanics and their prices! 1998 Toyota Camry and 2010 Toyota Rav4.
christopher glascoe
Great experience honest/great mechanics they were up front about everything. Had great customer service. Fixed a problem on my car that another shop was gonna screw me over on. I recommend them to any one in the Washington D.C., Maryland and Virginia area. I will be getting all my services done here from now on.
Chris Lane
Far East worked hard to fix a mystery leak in my Subaru. They made sure the problem was fixed, and checked with me several days later to make sure the problem had not returned. Very happy with the results!
Jen Newman
Paul, Watchman (and the whole team) are so nice and informative. They are always eager to help and explain what's wrong with my car. I keep going back because they are so friendly and make the process easy!
Jennifer Jarratt
Took in my old Subaru (1999 Outback) for checking so it could pass DC inspection--which it did, a week later. As on previous occasions, the staff were helpful and specific about what needed to be done for the inspection and for my safety. I trust them to do the work at reasonable cost.
Ricardo Edwards II
Awesome staff and great service with a limited time work guarantee! Absolutely love their service portal- they include videos of the issues/required repairs and have a great remote authorization process for all work items required. Thanks guys!!
Scott Schreiber
Far East Motors continues to impress me on each visit with excellent and caring service. Always the best!
Christian Sarofeen
There is not much worse than going to a bad mechanic. I've had bad experiences with my car so I've become very picky about my mechanic. Saying that, I would recommend this auto repair facility and I will be bringing my car back as needed. They seem a little expensive to me, although I think their prices are fairly standard for the area and getting it done right the first time is always cheaper.
They seem a bit overly cautious and their recommendations do seem a bit extreme. So be very specific about what you want done and don't want done. Overall the work seems to be of high quality.
Scott Schreiber
The service couldn't have been any better as my 1997 Toyota Camry runs great and has more power from a tune up and fuel injection cleaning. Watchman and Paul answered all of my questions that I had about this car but also my 2007 Toyota Camry that I will bring in later for service. Kudos all around for great service!
Kevin Scrimgeour
I have known Jon for more than 25 years and have had all my Honda's serviced there. Whether a quick oil change, regularly scheduled maintenance or repair Far East Motors has done a great job. They recently fixed my wife's Honda Odyssey as it was experience miss-fires. I got a quick diagnosis of the problem and the van was returned in a prompt and timely manner.
Rafael M
I have been taking my vehicle here for a couple of years. The team here is friendly and most importantly, honest. There was once a time where the issue was misdiagnosed at first (as a fuel tank harmless noise that cannot be fixed without replacing the whole thing), but several months later on the following oil change, was correctly re-diagnosed and fixed (turned out to be the rear shocks). Having said that, I still give them five stars and have scheduled my upcoming winter service with them because they can be trusted!
Even when the noise was misdiagnosed at first, the fees were minimal, and they even recommended not going for the expensive repair. Instead of trying to oversell services, they will tell you exactly what they think you need and won't over-inflate the bill with unnecessary charges. To me, that's the most important thing to look for in an auto service center: trust and peace of mind.
Shankar Kulumani
Communication from the shop is a little sparse at times. I had a vehicle there for service and received a call that it was ready about 5 minutes before closing. However they were flexible and stayed open for a few minutes to let me arrive.
The shop also tends to push for extra services, such as replacing your wiper blades or getting one of their monthly "tune up" specials.
Eric Fowler
Honest service and prices, which is often lacking at other auto repair places. A quick look up for the parts they had to replace on my car confirmed very reasonable labor costs, and they even fixed my key fob for free. Only issue was the wait was pretty long.
Barbara Thompson
Fareast Motors rocks! Thank you guys! 20 years and counting with Fareast Motors.
Dave Nuttycombe
I always feel good that Far East will treat me right. They get the job done quickly and there’s never a problem. Can’t recommend them highly enough.
Zui Nimbalkar
They’re excellent, not only with the servicing of the car but also by the way they handle customers. They’re polite and happy , it just felt like sitting in a house of a big happy family. Also, they’re quick and true to their word. I’ve definitely found a service center that’ll I’ll be going to again and again.
Christopher Howard
Great service and kept me up to speed on the repairs as they went. My first foreign car so I was a bit on the nervous side but these folks knew what was going on and the turn around was quick. Will definitely come back in the future.
Anthony Conerly
I've been taking my cars to Far East Motors (FEM) for 6 - 7 years now. I know that when I take my vehicles to FEM they're in good hands. I can always count of honest feedback, suggestions and above all else quality work.
Nick Zachar
Love Far East Motors, highly recommend. Paul is super helpful and always makes sure I am happy with their service upon pickup. 10/10.
Kate Kielty
Got me in fast, great customer service, emailed me the quote right before calling so we could discuss it and I could see what they were offering. Told you additional work that could be done/would need to be done soon but didn’t try and push you to spend more than you’re comfortable doing. Very happy with my service there!
Valerie Broadie
I’ve been coming to Far East for years—they’ve taken excellent care of a Honda and an Acura. Just brought in my new Honda CR-V for its first visit. Good guys—honest.
Alissa Munoz
Great service as usual.
Went in for an oil change and they realized our warranty wipers were not performing correctly - they replaced them for free. Sounds simple but it meant a lot, grateful for their attention to detail.
David Fulton
I believe great auto repair shops start with great customer service and trustworthy knowledge. Watchman exemplifies those qualities and he truly makes every experience at Far East a pleasant one.
Herb C
Great family operated business, best service at a fair price..
Brenda Richardson
They never disappoint. Been going there for over 2.0 years. They are the only ones I will let service our cars.
Steve S
For more than 20 years, we've brought many different makes of cars to Far East (Honda, Acura, Mazda) and they have been able to professionally care for each of them. They care and it shows!
Ying Xu
I went to this company to do Maryland inspection for my ACURA TSX. Mr. Paul Jones received me and rearranged the schedule so I could drive this car home. This gave me much convenience because I couldn't go home without my car. And the guy who check out with me was also very nice. Actually, I bought this car last year and did Maryland inspection in this company. Now I need to sell my car and still trust your company. I will recommend this company to my friends.
Abbi Abbey
Always provides excellent service. Always completes service faster than estimated time. Uses plain language to explain suggested car service and/or completed repairs. Clean well maintained shop, nice waiting area. I highly recommend this shop.
Andrew Bishop
They are fast and reliable. Their customer service is very good. I find the parts prices to be a little high, but they do guarantee to parts and labor for two years. Overall, a good place to work with.
Corrie Welch
Great communication and fast service. Far East always called when they said they would and our car was ready when they said it would be. Issue was something that had to be fixed by the dealer but I would go back for other repairs. Walking distance to the metro.
Devin Johnson
On two different occasions they completed the work in a reasonable amount of time at a fair price. And they are polite to boot.
Sarah King
Everything was explained to me easily, in a way I could understand. I didn’t feel rushed or pressured to make decisions on repairs needing to be done. They fixed my car same day and it’s running perfectly.
Allen Pendleton
Experience was very good although we were not able to complete repairs not the fault of Far East they could not get on line with the other parties that had to be involved with repairs not a problem for me I will return to complete the work thought the that were very professional!
Daniel Kochis
These guys provided an efficient same day service at a reasonable price. And they asked for me to come back in two weeks so they could confirm everything was working properly for no additional cost. I would definitely recommend.
Chelsea Crawford
I will never go to another mechanic. Far East has the best customer service around. The staff is personable, knowledgeable, and they provide great service every time.
yamina bbb
Don't hesitate to go this place if you have complicated issue ,They are very knowledgeable to fix any issue related to the car .I reviewed them bad before as I was frustrated about the cost and having another issue.However, the owner and his team did take care for me with genuine care. Very recommended!!!
Jessica beard
Came here for an state inspection the price was good. But I got hit with a list if things that's suppose to be wrong with my car. Let's just say the prices are crazy. I think I am being over charged $2000 worth of work is not worth it for the car I have. Great customer service and friendly staff.
Geoffrey Mack
Honest and timely.. I will use them again
Evelyn Younger
Far East Motors is a 5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 company. They took time and patience with me and my car to make sure that we both had quality care …
john hasentufel
Had a clutch issue on a Hyundai Genesis, special parts made this a rather expensive job but the shop was able to work with me and wound up finding a cheaper and more efficient route to go. Great work and helpful service.
J Robinson
This was my 3rd visit to Far East Motors and very pleased with the services received!
I got on their mailing list and received coupon for $50 off labor; used it on this visit, very happy about that!
Britta Anderson
We had our battery replaced today by this shop. We dropped off early, paid via text, and their team drove our car back to our house afterwards! They wiped it down with disinfectant when they got to our house. It couldn't have been more seamless overall.
Chanta Smith
Well rounded and satisfied quality of service. Ive been a customer with Far East Motors for decades and I continue to trust the service I receive.

Extremely satisfied with the service performed on my Acura Legend. The staff is professional and I want to give a big thumbs up to Watchman Sykes and Eddie for years of dependable service. Thanks

Jodi Knepper
Ok, so I know the outside might look like man-ville, but ladies trust me, you've really got to give this place a chance to wow you. Super-friendly and attentive, nice & clean waiting room, and people who will treat you right - even if you just happen to be a woman, lol. I know I'm in good hands here. So glad I took a chance with these guys! They just rock.
Amie Wohlfarth
Far East Motors completed a thorough inspection and provided me with a clear list of things needed. Truly appreciate them and their detailed information.

Employees were knowledgeable and very kind.

jOn and the guys at Far East are top notch. This is a no BS kind of place, They will tell you what you need but not push things you don't. If you have an older car that needs some TLC, this is your place.
Dale Stephens
Far East Motors is my go to repair shop. While not the cheapest, they do excellent work in a timely manner. They keep you informed and advise you of potential problems

Been here many times. Very nice front desk staff! Service is usually relatively quick and they will often call to keep you updated.

I've gone to Far East Motors since 1995. Jon Moser when he was Master Mechanic at a Honda dealership set out on his own because he felt he could do the work at fair prices and at a high quality. He was/is right on both accounts. I trust him and his team to provide outstanding service on my Hondas period. I still travel from HoCo down to Silver Spring, MD for tough jobs that need to be done right the first time!
