Earlysville Auto

The owner was my night in shining armor yesterday when my van died at the post office. I had called a tow truck, but their portable jumper cables didn’t have enough charge. Roger just happened to be there picking up his mail and he jumped right in offering his help. He got my van running so I could drive it to his shop, then got my battery replaced in less than 30 minutes. Quick service, fair pricing, and very personable!

I am a licensed aircraft mechanic, and have done almost all my own auto mechanic work for 45 years. Recently, my 2004 Trailblazer left my wife stranded in "limp home" mode near the airport, about a four mile drive to our house. It was running poorly, and I didn't want to risk any damage to the engine, so when we came limping into Earlysville I pulled it into Earlysville Auto. I had heard about this shop for years, and knew Roger and his team by reputation, but had never taken a vehicle there. As I mentioned, I do nearly all my own work. What it ended up being was a fairly complex electrical issue with the camshaft sensing circuit and solenoid. While diagnosing the problem, there were several other issues they were able to find (and resolve) that saved me quite a bit of money and frustration down the road. I can vouch for their integrity, skill, and most of all excellent communications. I was consulted on every part prior to them putting it on the vehicle. The overall repair cost came in hundreds of dollars below what I was expecting. As a mechanic myself, I can state with certainty that these folks know vehicles, and know customer service. I can't recommend this shop enough. What an outstanding experience!

They've helped me with affordable tires, regular inspections, and most recently replaced the brakes on my Subaru. They are kind and thoughtful, and thoroughly explain my options.

First used the shop when we lived in Earlysville 20 years ago and were so impressed we've been taking our vehicles there ever since, even though we now live 40 miles away. 10 years ago I took my 1985 Ford Ranger in for service. On the way home after picking it up, the alternator belt broke, leaving me dead on 250. I called Roger and he drove down with a new belt and fixed it for no charge--"no one leaves my shop and then breaks down." Roger can be gruff and he does not suffer fools, but he is an expert at what he does, honest (which is often not the case with auto shops) and straightforward.

We have taken our cars to Earlysville Auto for almost 30 years and couldn''t possibly say enough good things about Roger, Vince, and the rest of the guys at Earlysville Auto. Roger knows his stuff, is totally honest, and has NEVER done anything other than a GREAT job. I bought my present car through Roger and it's now over 211,000 miles and going strong. Good work and integrity are what you get at this shop.

I’ve found Earlysville Auto to be very fairly priced and vehicle repairs done on time and done correctly. My family takes all three of our cars their!

Roger & his son Robert are very helpful & quite knowledgeable! Straight forward to deal with. Been using them for over a decade with 5 different vehicles.

I was fed up with garages doing half way repairs and ripping me off so I took the advice of several friends and neighbors and took my car to Earlysville Auto. Since then my repairs have been nothing less than perfect and the repair fees have always been reasonable. The employees are friendly and there have been times when they have gone above and beyond for me. The owner, Rodger Perkins, always explains in detail what the problem is and what the options are. Also, he will often give his opinion about what he thinks is best, even if it means less profit for him. I can always rest assured when I pick up my car up from Earlysville Auto that everything will be done to perfection and the work is guaranteed.

I would not trust our family car to anyone else. Roger is honest and knowledgeable. His work is impeccable and along with the rest of his talented mechanics, have kept our cars running well over 200,000 miles. Thanks Roger!

Roger is amazing. He is honest and his pricing is beyond fair. I will not take my vehicles to anyone else. He has helped us out of a jam on more than one occasion.

Roger had been caring for my family's cars for 11 years. He is honest to a fault, to the point of open contempt for certain automotive design decisions, and how they affect your daily drive. Example: "if you saw how they hooked up the sunroof in these Volvos, you would CRY. You do NOT want to waste your money making it so it can open."

Moved here 3 years ago. Found consistently superior customer service and auto repairs at Earlysville Auto Center. Skilled technicians quickly diagnose problems, fix things right the first time, for less than competition.

While at the center this week, mentioned that I was having trouble with my tractor. Owner Roger Perkins came by after hours to fix the problem - no charge.

Pleased that Roger is expanding business and is refurbishing empty property across the street from his shop that has been empty for 3 years. Appreciate outstanding service from Earlysville Auto Center. Hope other service providers decide to invest in Earlysville as well.

Roger is always helpful. We have used Earlysville Auto for over 30 years. Never a problem. Great service.

A gem of a place. Honest and trustworthy. I took in our older Suburban thinking it needed new brakes and the looked at everything and said still plenty of life left in pads and rotors. Could have easily just changed everything out and charged me for it.

These guys came recommended by a good friend when we were looking for a good shop closer to town. Came in for a state inspection and oil change and waited less than an hour. Very friendly group of guys and great customer service!

Roger is as honest as the day is long. I've used him and his staff for almost 40 years.

Knowledgeable and honest. I have been dealing with E'ville Auto for over 30 years.

I have had most of my cars repaired at this place. They have always been honest and fair. Another location planned to charge me much more to have needless work done. They fixed my car for $1,000 less.

Earlysville Auto and it's staff and owners are great. They always give me the best customer service and advice when I have an issue and regular maintenance is always a breeze.

I haven't taken a vehicle to anyone else in the past 14 years. Roger is the most honest mechanic you will ever find.
