Orange County Garage

My boyfriend took my car over to Terry at Orange County Garage yesterday. We found out that my rotors were blue with nicks and grooves, my serpentine belt was frayed, one of the pulleys was over torqued, etc. Yes, my boyfriend confirmed and got the original parts back. As a back story, I took my car to one auto mechanic in Northern VA called Perfection Auto (by recommendation of a coworker/​friend) earlier this year to have them shave my rotors. I paid for the work, but something still wasn’t right. So, they re-​shaved my rotors and charged me again. Apparently, according to Terry, they never even touched my rotors! Unbelievable! He then found that my serpentine belt was frayed and they could not undo one of the pulleys. They had to drill it because it was so over torqued that the tensioner would not budge. I had my timing belt and serpentine belt done at another Northern VA auto shop. Not even a week after that work was done, a pulley snapped. We had to tow my car from Fredericksburg to Sterling to have it fixed by the same place (at no charge), but the fact that the belt was never replaced, the pulley was over torqued a second time, and only the pulley was replaced (Terry said it looked rotted out and they should have replaced the whole thing instead of the pulley alone), made us question the quality of work done at these other places. Anyway, Terry replaced the rotors, changed my brakes, flushed out my brake fluid and made sure it was clean, replaced the tensioner, and replaced the serpentine belt all for under $ 700. That is an amazing deal and my car runs like a champ! This is an honest business with outstanding mechanics who get the job done and do it right! Thank you, Terry and Tim!
