I have been coming to Ballard Foreign Car Repair for the last year since New ownership has taken place. Mike is very nice and explains the problem with the car and gives his expert opinion on how to resolve the issue and how much it will cost before any work is performed. He also has another location, Turnpike Auto, in Alexandria in which I have been patronizing for over 20 years and his establishment is the only mechanical shop I will take my vehicles for service.

My car was towed to the garage, and the mechanics were very honest with me concerning the diagnostic of the car. I would definitely be a return customer if needed and will recommend the shop to others.

I've been to here for all my car needs. They're very helpful, friendly and inexpensive. Everytime I brought my car to them its been fixed and at a good rate. They work with you and are very communicative. The staff is wonderful.

We’ve used many auto mechanics and no one compares to the professionalism they showed and best of all honesty. Mike was very helpful with details of their findings. We’ve sent three of our vehicles and were pleased with all this far. It always feels good to leave an auto shop without wondering if we got got!!! They made sure we did not spend on unnecessary Repairs after our so called trusted auto shop (Lanham area ?) told us we needed to spend close to a 1k but only needed a new gas cap. Same conclusions with the other vehicles. Thank you god from saving us from paying someone’s mortgage!

Mr Ballard is an honest business owner and the mechanics do EXCELLENT work. I have been to him several times with all the cars myself and my children drive and each time have been treated with respect. Always fair prices and each time has done the work under estimate. I love this place. Oh, and they are black owned and operated! Can I give them 8 stars???

Unfortunately, I had the worst experience ever! I was there to get my tire checked to see what's wrong with it. The guy did not even give me the time to explain the situation, and he literally to told me that "We ain't a gas station". What customer service is that? teach your guys how to perform their job in a professional way please.

They've replaced an entire engine on my Jetta and an alternator on my Audi Q5! Mr. Ballard does great honest work and reasonable prices. You can't trust just anyone to work on a foreign car, but you're in good hands here.
