Alexandria VA auto repair

Great place to get your car inspected! They take appointments for both safety and emissions inspections and are dog friendly.

Great service

Always reliable and fast service. They walked over to where my car was, jumped the battery, then drove it over and replaced it in a matter of minutes. And I got a free drink from 7-11 while I was waiting! Not cheap but you can always count on Yates to get everything straightened out.

This is my second time here and it's always great experience. I drive for Lyft and you are required to do a safety inspection I am a Maryland resident but Virginia inspection is cheaper and Lyft accepts it so every time I come the experience is phenomenal. From the time I enter the building I'm greeted with warm smiles and friendly faces. The did the inspection of my vehicle a the this that didn't pass their mechanics are able to fix it. While I was there the service writer Will Blake made sure I was comfortable offered refreshments. While I was in the waiting room I noticed that the shop is clean. As a mechanic a clean shop indicates people that take pride in their work so it was a plus for me. I would recommend this shop to anyone seeking repair this shop on a whole takes pride in their work

Great experience as a customer at Yates Automotive ! If you live in the Alexandria area, you should give them a try for all your automotive needs !

I was pleased to learn that Yates does inspections — got my state inspection done in under 4 hours, quick and convenient, got a call when it was all done and pickup was a breeze. Great service from kind folks. I’ll be coming back for as long as I’m in the Alexandria area.

I suddenly realized my safety inspection was several months past due on a Sunday morning. I had been towed for this very reason twice in the past from my complex, and was determined to avoid that situation again. I woke up at 7am on Monday morning, went to the gas station—there was a three hour wait. Went to another gas station—another three hour wait. Decided to give Yates a try. They too had a wait, but I explained my situation, and they happily accommodated me. I was extremely grateful. Highly recommend!
