I always take my vehicle to Beacon. The most trustworthy and honest shop I have ever taken my car to. I’ve never waited more than a day for anything they were working on. Quick, efficient, and honest…what else could you want from a mechanic? Thank you as always!
Always great service. I know I can trust them and wont go anywhere else to get my car worked on.
Great first-time experience, I highly recommend. Their technicians work quickly and efficiently. Katie, the service writer his professional and courteous.
This has been my go-to mechanic since I have been stationed in VA. They were able to diagnose and fix problems with my 2009 Dodge Charger that even the dealerships failed to fix. Super helpful and courteous. When my Charger got totaled in an accident they were very helpful getting me proof of my repairs to prove the money I put into the car. A year or so later I finally needed work on my new car and the quality hasn’t dropped at all. Friendly service, honest mechanics, and quality work keeps me coming back. I couldn’t recommend them more.
Very happy with my service, this was my first. I will use beacon again.
This is a wonderful, veteran owned, family business. They were so quick and kind to help my family with our vehicle. They checked over everything and gave us peace of mind on the road. Id definitely recommend this shop!
Scheduled an inspection and they flushed my brake system at my request. Headlight lenses needed cleaning to pass inspection and they look as new as the day my car rolled off the showroom floor. Highly satisfied with everything about Beacon Auto Repair. Will use them in the future for all my automotive needs.
Always takes great care of our vehicle needs!
They always go above and beyond. You can take Dans word to the bank!! Nice to have a repairman you can trust.
Awesome service! Fair prices! Wonderful staff!
Reliable and trustworthy mechanics!!! Only place I’ll take any of my vehicles.
Went for state inspection - staff was very friendly - inspector was honest and the whole process was stress free. Definitely recommend!
I’ve always been sketched out about paying people to work on my car, but this place is definitely the best I’ve been to. Reasonable priced and they ALWAYS called me before doing anything extra or to get my approval. I’ll be using is place any time I need work done from now on
So I brought my van in for some work. They were fast as hell. Did everything correctly, price was extremely fair, even gave me print outs of my alignment (which lots of places claim to have a broken printer). Ive been working on my own vehicles for years and simply dont have the time for it anymore. Im very confident in their work and will be using them for my vehicles going foward.Edit: also, I read something about puppies running around, where are the puppies! I wanted to see them
Absolutely a pleasant experience compared to other repair facilities I have been to.Honest, great pricing, efficient, and most importantly local and Family owned. Also, the Owner is a Veteran.
The most honest mechanics Ive ever met!
Came here for the first time after reading lots of positive reviews. Very glad I did and will be coming back for future needs. Owners and staff were very prompt to my email questions and returned phone calls with details. I was treated with respect and honesty which I appreciate much.
I just want 2 say I picked up my truck 2 day. And OMG she runs like she did when I bought her back in 2007. Dean and Dan did a really great job. I has the transmission replaced and the rear main seal/plate. I also had my oil pressure switch replaced. As they was working on my truck they found a few more things wrong with my front end. I am so thankful for Dean and Dan fixing my truck and making sure that I am safe. So for everyone listening u need any work done take it 2 Beacon Auto Repair they r the best. Keep up the great job guys.
Great place...they dont try to get you to pay more than youre supposed to?
One of the best repair shops I’ve ever dealt with! My car is running like it’s brand new. Madison was especially helpful and knowledgeable through the entire process. Thank you so much you all have my business for sure!
These people are crooks. When you need something fixed they’ll fix it, but if they notice something else that’s wrong with your car, they will just fix it without running it by you first so they can charge you more money. Rude staff, and they have wild dogs running around inside the building for some unknown reason.
If I can help it I will not bring my car anywhere else. Beacon is honest do great work! Dan and Christy are awesome.
These are very good people at Beacon, I have known them for years. Honest hard working family and Danny has MANY years of experience. Super clean place. You can trust them unlike many of the other guys.
Im always pleased with the service provided by Beacon Auto. I miss seeing those beautiful dogs. And customer service has always been great. Its definitely a place to build great relationship if your looking for service with care.
Ive been getting my car serviced at this family business for years now. The owners Dan and Crissy care about the service they give. The front desk workes are great and very helpful, especially Madison. Would greatly recommend taking any and all car concerns here!
I brought my son’s 2004 Subaru there they are a great family owned business made recommendations of minor thing with no pressure to get additional work done, so I had them go ahead and do the other minor work. I was very pleased with the price. Will continue to go back!! Thanks so much !
I love this shop. I do a lot of things myself but sometimes I just don’t have the time. Their labor rates are very fair, and work is always top notch. First auto place I’ve seen that doesn’t try to gouge you. Highly recommend. I’d send my mother here. Great folks, great work!
Customer service from Katie was great !! Her knowledgeable in vehicle parts and repairs was awesome. A clean and friendly atmosphere in the shop. Along with Dan a great mechanic and manger Cristy.
Danny is awesome! He gets me right every single time. His prices are reasonable too. Give him a try.
Great people, great costumer service! State inspection was discounted for military as well as when they installed my tires if ever I need my vehicle worked on I know where Im taking it!
Quick work and gave good advice!
Great folks willing to help
Quoted me a price for tire rotation. Went to pick up my truck and it was 30 dollars more than quoted. Said I had 20 inch trims so it cost more. 30 dollars more. They never bothered to call me. Just did the work anyway. The lady was looking at my truck when I dropped it off. This is becoming common practice everywhere. Upcharge everybody and everything. This one lost a customer.
Best auto repair shop in town! The staff creates a very friendly environment and the mechanics are awesome. They explain exactly what is wrong and exactly what they have to do to fix your vehicle. They gave me a price estimate before they did any work. Definitely my best experience with an auto shop yet!
Its rare to find an auto shop that places emphasis on customer service, but Beacon does! Great customer service and competitive prices. Highly recommended
Brought my 2012 Ford Escape here earlier this year on the recommendation of a friend after the local dealer wanted me to replace a leaking timing cover (~$1,200 repair.) Danny and the crew were very nice and found that the cover just needed some cleaning. Brought the car back more recently for a new set of tires & to recheck the cover. I appreciated the no-nonsense fair price on the tires. Even better, Danny found the timing cover to be in good shape with no leaks. No more trips to the dealer for me! Excellent experience, recommended without reservation.
The ladies that work at the desk are very welcoming. Highly recommend. Very professional and friendly.
Always friendly.Excellent Technicians, knowledgeable.Military discount (retired and active)Two energetic G.S. puppies
Cristy and Danny took great care of my car. Four new tires and Im driving safely again.
We take all of our vehicles here because the service is always friendly. They are thorough, and have always repaired our vehicles in a reasonable amount of time and at a fair price. We will continue to bring our vehicles here, and recommend them to others.
Fantastic customer service.... Top of the line technicians. Actually invited me into the shop to show me what the were doing to my car and not just use a bunch of words that I dont understand.
Very professional and friendly. They give honest estimates and stick to it. Highly recommend it for everyone.
My go to place for any auto repair or state inspections. One new thing is they now have 2 dogs that stay on site with them. There are signs alerting you of this before you go in. But dont worry, they are the sweetest pups in the world. They only come up to you if you invite them and they have great manners.
Beacon auto repair is the best auto mechanic in town. Dan is incredibly knowledgeable, very trustworthy, and overall a great guy. He takes the time to explain things thoroughly and actually show you whatever problems there are with your car. The facility is very clean, offers fresh coffee, and has a nice TV to entertain you if you need to wait. They always fit me into the schedule and fix whatever issues I may have. I highly recommend Beacon Auto Repair to everyone!
Great owners that take pride in customer service and quality. We’ve always gotten thorough and honest work done with clear communication and in a very timely manner!!
Absolutely love this shop! Such a clean facility and the staff is absolutely incredible. Great, honest, and reliable work! Ive tried other shops in the Hampton Roads area and none of them even compare. I bring all of my vehicles here and theres nothing these guys cant tackle.
The staff is always fast and courteous. The pricing is fair and they are honest about everything they do. The waiting room is nice and comfortable and has outlets for devices, and as cable tv as well.
Super friendly husband and wife owners, excellent customer service, outstanding service!! Never feel as if theyre trying to get over and/or overcharge. Service is always quick and Ive never had any issues with their work.
Fantastic, honest service with fair, up-front pricing. Once, when they were unable to resolve an issue, they told me what they thought the problem was and how to get it resolved (it was something only the dealer could do). So far, Ive never had to take a car back after they have worked on it. Top-notch mechanics and employees.
Christy and Dan are both very helpful and friendly
Took my wife’s van for an oil change and was quoted the normal $30-$40 for an oil change that is fine. They called and said it was done but we’re recommending a fluid flush and a battery. We said we would go ahead with the fluid flush for $51 but when we got there to pick up the vehicle they quoted us $127. Now she did not inform us of other charges that the flush would come with. We were expecting to pay around $85 but we payed $106. She said that there was nothing more she could do with the price because the work was already done but she did price down some things to get it to $106. My concern is you need to go by what you told me on the phone for pricing or let me know that there will be other charges with the flush I mean we didn’t plan to spend that much. We try to support local business when we can but will go back to AAA for our next service.
Thank you ALL very much!!! You guys are always so helpful and I truly feel that you genuinely care that my 2005 4Runner runs in the best shape it can. You have always gone above and beyond to help me out and that proved true yesterday when you took the extra time to check my sunroof. Yall are AWESOME and I sincerely appreciate the exceptional family like customer service.
Dropped car off for State inspection and tire repair. Car was ready faster than expected and great price on their service. Very family oriented company and good mechanics.
Good shop. GI is the best mechanic I know.
Best customer service and honest pricing Ive ever encountered.
Always professional and honest. Work is first rate!
Really great people. Family owned and operated. Very trustworthy and caring. They do ALL of our vehicle maintenance and I wouldnt go anywhere else.
Went to get an inspection done and was failed for not having a bolt in the body of my truck. Oh and my brake cable is rusted thru.. damn thing works and not one spot of rust on the cable or housing.. these people are trying to get work out of a $20 inapection. Not one bit of that should of failed a safety inspection. COME ON PEOPLE..
Great shop! Staff is friendly and very helpful.
Good service, good prices . Courteous and helpful
Took my car there said it had to many oil leaks to fix. Took it somewhere else the next day there were no oil leaks I was missing a transmission mount. Car has ran perfectly since
My girlfriend took her car here because it wouldnt start. They diagnosed the problem that it needed a new starter and charged $50 to diagnose it. Then to fix it they were going to charge $580. We then found two different people that only charged $100 for the labor. Replacing a starter only takes an hour and a half. A starter at most is $150. Theres no way they could charge that much for a Honda accord. Will not come back here.
2nd year coming to get inspected first time was okay, 2nd time they tried to charge me for stuff not even applicable to the state inspection check list. I was not fond of Katie at all. She was snappy, rude, with a nonchalant attitude. The other staff was ok the main receptionist was helpful. They pick at every little thing to get your money and throw unnecessary stuff in to charge you more than what is needed. This was my last and final time going to them . I clearly was not that satisfied. I’ll be finding another place to get my car inspected next year .
My husband was out of town for the week and my car started acting up so I called Beacon and was able to bring my car right over. Dan and Christy were so helpful and took care of my car right away so I didnt have to call a cab. My husband usually arranges for car maintenance and repair. Normally I would have been stressed out taking it anywhere else on my own, wondering if I was being taken advantage of. I trust Beacon Auto to take care of my car, me, and my wallet.
Had some work done. They did everything I ask for except the diagnostic test which I needed the most. Not even 30 mins after I picked up my car I was having issues. People seem nice but not happy at all with not having to take my car somewhere else to find out the real issues.
AMAZING!!!! There are no words to explain the customer service, the efficiency, and the amazing work that this establishment does. I am new to the area so I had gone to another shop not knowing about this place to have my car assessed fir a state inspection and they had told me that in order to get my car to where it needed to be that I would have to spend over $1,000. A friend of mine had suggested that I take my car to Beacon Auto Repair and I walked away with paying less than $100.00 for all of my needs. The tech even showed me everything that the other shop was trying to get me on, and walked me through on why my parts were still in good condition and were not needed to be replaced or worked on. I have been there twice now, the second time for an oil change and because I was hearing a weird sound. My friends had told me that I would probably pay over $500.00, I definitely spent a lot less and it was done in less than 2 hours! I am a property manager of 2 apartment communities and I recommend this shop to EVERY ONE of my residents as well as my family and friends!!!THIS IS VIRGINIA BEACHs BEST KEPT SECRET!!!!
Staff was friendly and there were puppies! 2 Stars bc my car was in the shop for less than 3 hours and I got charged $324 dollars for labor. I wish I made 100+ / hr! Alignment, tire rotation, oil change. Nothing crazy for 100+/hr seems pretty ridiculous.
Ive known and worked with the owners for years. They ALWAYS treat you the customer fairly. Excellent people and customer service!
Best place in Virginia Beach by far! Honest and fair! Best customer service I have ever had from an auto shop. My vehicles will be serviced at Beacon from here on out.
Rude ServiceI used to go to Beacon Auto shop frequently when I had an older beat up car and Dan had always given me the best price and best car repair. Before they relocated, they used to be nice and attentive to me. As a good gesture, I would always recommend them to ALL of my friends and my relatives. I would always swear by their excellent customer service. Everytime I used to go see Kristy and Dan, I would be excited and know everything will be fine. 3 years later, when I bought a newer car and after my warranty ended, I didnt hesitate and go anywhere else but Beacon. Not only that they relocated unnoticed, they have new front desk clerks now. One of them wears glasses and have a heavy-set look to her, she rolled her eyes upon my arrival. She was very unpleasant and i felt like I was treated indifferently. And then Kristy was rude for the most part too. I felt bad for her because she has gotten old and stressed out. Altough, I still recieved a good car repair by Dan, I will never come back here. And I am SCARED to recommend any of my college friends and family to come here. Good old days are over.Response to the Owner:Its really not about how good and great the repair and prices are, its the morale of the business is whats important. I didnt even care if you didnt remembered me. I would rather pay more elsewhere for better customer service and RESPECT for others.
Great experience here. Friendly staff and good prices.
Best auto repair shop Ive ever been too! Very honest and great customer service.
The only auto repair shop I will use. Honest, fair and friendly owners and staff who take a personal interest in you and your vehicle.
Very knowledgeable, they work on every make and model whenever I have something intermittent they always find it! Very pleased
Amazing quick service and love the customer service.
Well run family owned business.
They do great mechanic work and the prices are fair.
After taking my cars to Kia dealerships and charging an arm and a leg, my husband found this place and Everytime theres a problem with our cars or just need an oil change this is the spot. They are extremely nice and their puppies are to die for!
Great place! Honest work, been here quite a few times and always pleased.
They tried to charge my wife $70 dollars for two signal lights on front of car I went and bought them at advance auto parts for $748 cents took me 2 minutes to replace
Worst customer service! Dropped car off, was quoted a time, car never got serviced. The women at the service counter needs additional customer service training. I will never visit there again and recommends you dont letter either.
Beacon Auto Repair is a great place. Honest and affordable.only place I will take my car to be serviced and repaired.
Best repair shop in Virginia Beach! No, scratch that... Best repair shop in Va!!!!
They have been amazing. Super accommodating and knowledgable.
Dan and his team are very knowledgeable and honest! Been going there for years!
Came in to get my car serviced and they made sure the process was quick and comfortable, Ill definitely be a return customer!!!!! Also thank you to Meghan at the front desk!!!
Best auto place in Hampton Roads.
I went for annual auto inspection and I was told I need to replace a side marker bulb. Bulb cost 1.52 and I was told labor was 52.00. Total63.00 with 10 inspection fee. Was told they replaced two but receit said one. I believe labor charge 2as excessive because volvo told me the cost should have been no more than 15.00.
Great staff, great prices, and thorough service!
Great service great price and I got my car back the same day!
Always willing to accommodate and they know their stuff. Only place in VB I would let work on my vehicles.
The absolute hands down worst customer service I have ever been around EVER. I work customer service for the city and this was the most Disgusting ever. The women who answered the phone hung up on me twice and didn’t even apologize just very rude.
Only place I will take my car.
Totally honest. .great service!
Everyone is super nice and helpful!
Best, most honest mechanic around
Great customer and affordable.
