I have been there three times to repair my diesel 2007 Ford E-350 truck. They got it right, every time. Their prices are a bit pricey to my palate but it just how my budget feels after two of the 3 repairs done there. But as a hvac contractor myself l could put myself in their shoes and also I am completely ignorant about what really involved in repairing those mechanics unfriendly diesel truck.

STAY AWAY do not do business with light truck service in Rockville! I brought my Ford van/RV in for a complete tuneup, this is very basic mechanical work on an older Ford vehicle. They quoted me $800. Which is excessive, when I arrive to pick the RV up the bill was $1567. They did some other unauthorized checkouts so they dropped it down to 1200 which is still extremely excessive.
I left with the van and it drove 100 times worse after their tuneup than when I brought it in. Their mechanics had the plug wires on the wrong spark plugs and the timing was never set properly. I had to take it to a reputable shop in Bethesda which corrected their shoddy work. Also they advised me that my brakes were at 50%. We took a trip got 500 miles away and the shop said the brakes are at 0% so they misadvised a simple check out of the brakes.
I do not recommend this shop at all. I talked to other mechanics in the area and they said never go to light truck service never ever! This business is known for price gouging beware it is cheaper to go to the dealer then it is to go to lights truck service in Rockville. Do yourself a favor take the time to shop they are you might be surprised that the dealer is actually much cheaper than this place I'm surprised they are still in business.

I visited this place a few times and I think it was good. But last couple of times I had to visit 2 times each to repair my van. 1. Tpms warning light : they replaced 3sensors, everything was done, then and I had to come back because I got tpms again after 2weeks. They said nothing is wrong, it is just cold weather. 2. Heater : they replaced blending door but I had to come back next week to replace control unit too. So I'm not sure if this place is very good, or just fine. I will visit this place if I got problem again. Then I may give them 5stars if good

These guys are great. I bought a user '07 sprinter in bad shape and Ken and Paul addressed the numerous issues needed to get it road ready - new brake lines, swapping the rear diff, finally figuring out why the axle seals kept seeping, swapping the turbo and intake manis, addressing aged front suspension, fixing a broken flex pipe on the exhaust, the list goes on. Ken is one of the most responsive technicians I've worked with - accurate with his lead times, explains things fully, and really stands behind his work. Appreciate the work, fellas!

I brought my food truck to this location for a Maryland State Inspection. Their thorough inspector found all the issues that needed to be fixed in order to pass the inspection. The knowledgeable technicians were able to fix every single issue with the truck. But that's not the best part. Since it is a food truck, I had scheduled events where I needed the truck to in order to serve food.
They were EXTREMELY flexible and I was able to bring the truck in an out on days that I didn't have to serve food. Ken is amazing, very professional and knowledgeable. The truck runs great now! I can't thank them enough for their quality of work, and most importantly in my case, their flexibility. God bless this business! #JesusLives #JesusLoves

I have taken several trucks here on multiple occasions and there service has always been outstanding. They are completely honest and have been upfront about repairs needed and spot on with their price estimates in fact on more than one occasion the final price was actually lower than originally estimated. I would recommend them to anyone and will continue to use them in the future for my personal truck, motorhome, and for our fleet service.

I brought my vehicle in Monday. Was told job would take three days. Their repair process, ordering of a new part, was explained. On Friday I was told they hadn't adhered to their self-proscribed repair process, had ordered the wrong part and my vehicle wouldn't be ready until Tuesday. Their mistake cost me thousands of dollars. Despite admitting fault, they didn't even offer me a discount. There are lots of options, places to spend your hard earned money. Do it at a place that respects and appreciates that. This business doesn't.

Don't ever bring your truck, trailer or vehicle to this place. They will rip you off! They will not call you to consult about the price and how much it would cost to fix. Instead of that they will fix and overcharge you. This set of lights for my trailer only cost 70 bucks online but they charged 180 parts plus 180 labor fee. My advice to you is stay away from these scum bags!
