I stumbled across Foreign Auto after my car failed inspection 2 years ago. Finding Foreign Auto was the best silver lining of that situation! Ted has always been so personable, helpful, and always willing to go the extra mile to help me understand what's going on with my car since I am definitely not well equipped in car-issues. His business is always extremely fair priced and honest, which is not always what I have experienced living in Boston. Recently I had an issue with the body of my car, and Ted connected me to another well-established local business right away. I couldn't be more thankful for their business and their kindness. I will always come here for all of my auto repair needs!

Honest. Been using them for a year. They never charge me if they diagnose something they don't recommend I fix. Transparent about all prices before performing services.

This was the best service experience in my 60+ years of owning cars. Sullivan Tire told me that I needed a $2000 alignment because the bolts were frozen. Ted heated and loosened the bolts and told me that I didn’t need an alignment yet. He checked the fluids for my 60,000 mile check up and said they were fine. Other shops would have changed everything regardless and handed me an exorbitant bill. Ted patiently answered my questions and took such good care of me..

I can't recommend Ted and crew more highly. They are straightforward, honest, and will tell you when you don't need work. We bring both our cars there for all of our service.

At the recommendation of a good friend, I contacted Ted (Co-owner) at Foreign Auto Center to discuss some work needed on my 2017 Subaru Crosstrek. It required an oil change and A/C check. After our discussion, I made an appointment for the following week. Delivered the Crosstrek by 9:00 AM on the appointed day as agreed and Ted called at 2:00 PM that all work was complete. The A/C was pressure tested and only required a recharge. All work was completed for less that the estimate. Ted was knowledgeable and straightforward with what might be required depending on the A/C test. Clean, organized and well maintained shop.
In addition, upon Ted's recommendation and a review of the Crosstrek's service record, I made an appointment for two days later to have the rear brakes pads and rotors replaced. Again, the work was completed on the appointed day in a very timely fashion and for a very reasonable amount. The braking was vastly improved as anticipated. Good work and impressed by the quality service.

Cannot recommend these people enough. Their concerns are treating people straightforwardly and doing the right job at a fair price, instead of dazzling you with extraneous bells and whistles. They feel like part of the neighborhood, and I'll keep coming back to them.

Highly recommend - they were honest, knowledgeable about my car, and efficient in diagnosing and repairing the issue when my service light came on! My car was in and out within the day and the prices were extremely fair!

These guys are some of the most honest and excellent folks out there. They are super transparent with whatever they are fixing, never overcharge and also give very solid advice on what repairs need to be made. I've had a great experience with them, and strongly recommend them to anybody looking for a reliable and high quality shop in the Greater Boston area.

First review I've ever written. They were that amazing. Mechanics are always a hard thing to find, but these guys are fast, good, kind, and fair. Truly could not recommend them enough.

I was incredibly impressed by the folks here -- I brought my car in, and they diagnosed the issue, but they advised me that I could get it fixed cheaper somewhere else without voiding the warranty, and they strongly recommended I take it there. They then talked me through how to get a cheap tow to the other location and refused any payment except a tip from me. They were kind and professional and communicative throughout -- really good and honest people. I don’t usually write reviews, but I wanted to share this rare gem of a positive experience with an auto service. Thanks so much, Ted & Jim!

I won't take my cars anywhere else (6 years running). Very competent mechanics who are unbelievably honest and helpful. After all of my good experiences my in-laws and all of my friends now come here, everyone is thrilled with Ted and his team.
