Received a PrePurchase Inspection on a vehicle I was interested in purchasing. They checked it out top to bottom inside and out and gave me everything they found in a printed out document. They test drove the vehicle as well. Exactly what I needed. I would definitely recommend if you need a PrePurchase Inspection!!

Foreign Accents has been taking care of my vintage 1992 Volvo 240 for over twenty years. I was recently in to have my front rotors & brakes replaced. They also replaced the transmission gasket, filter & pan to repair the fluid from leaking. Scott & Randy still run their business the same way they have for over 40 years. They value their customers and give the best service possible. The whole team works to ensure that each customer receives the best possible care

Not particularly impressed with three quality of work they produce, nor the speed at which they produce it.... friend of mine took her car there to be repaired when it was recovered by police after being stolen. $2700 and NEARLY A MONTH LATER i took her to pick her car up and there were parts detached laying in the drivers seat and wires hanging from the ceiling, not to mention the mechanic gave her the brush off pretty much everytime she called, giving her several different excuses as too why it was taking so long....overall an unprofessional and unsatisfying experience

I spent over 6000 to install a new engine and fix air-conditioning. I had my vehicle towed back 3 times, to fix it, they charged me each time for the same issue, which wasn't occuring before the new engine. After the 4th time the vehicle wouldn't start I took to my local mechanic who fixed it for good. In addition, my air conditioner still doesn't work.

Foreign Accents just did something that I thought was unthinkable in car repair world -- provided service for free! We took our car in after experiencing a death rattle that got worse and worse until we could no longer ignore it. As with many car issues, we mentally prepared ourselves for the worst -- would we walk out with a bill for $1,000? $500? Who knows?
When my husband called for an update, they let us know that the lug nuts on the back driver's side tire were unbelievably loose and they just needed to be tightened. They let us know they would just charge us for the labor. We let out

Just had my first service with Foreign Accents on June 5th. They were very friendly and made a point of introducing me to Tom, the mechanic who serviced my car. Jennifer, the service rep, seemed very knowledgeable. Although they suggested a few additional services, there was no undue pressure. Foreign Accents is much larger than it seems from the front view on West Market. They also provided free rides home and back to the garage to pick up my car.

We are new customers to Foreign Accents, long time friends of ours have been customers for years and have always told us about the excellent work they do. We had an unexpected issue with our car and decided to take it to Foreign Accents. SCOTT knew immediately what had caused the problem and explained it to us. We are happy to say that they did a wonderful job fixing the issue. We would recommend
them to everyone.

I've taking my BMW To a (what I thought was) trusted mechanic for about 2 years. Each time work was done to the car the bill was at least $800 or more! I was at my wits end our mechanic told us that not much they could do just have more frequent oil changes then usual. My husband called foreign accent the lady on the phone was very informative and advise if they couldn't fix it they will let us know so they wouldn't waste our time. The cost to fix the car along with the leaks was last then $400. My air conditioner been blows colder air! I was so happy with the results So guess

We have been bringing our cars - Lexus and Mercedes currently - here for many years. Foreign Accent's people have been careful in explaining the problems and cautious in recommending expensive repairs. We trust (and like) the people who work there very much. We have also bought 2 cars from them. The servicing is superior to a dealership which is run by a large, not local, corporation.

This is an exceptional auto sales and service center. Totally professional, friendly, comprehensive and trustworthy. Highest marks to the whole operation! And if you have a British sports car it likely needs the TLC and expertise that Tim will give it. My 1971 TR6 is in outstanding condition because of him. Lynn Stone

I have been taking my Subaru to Chuck at foreign accents for years! I would not trust my Subaru to anyone else! The staff is very welcoming and accommodating. I never feel pressured to buy something that is not needed. The staff is very honest- I had a dealer tell me I needed new breaks but when I took it to Chuck I was told they are still in good condition and had several more months on them.
Bottom line- if you have a Subaru or any foreign car bring it here for service!

Seriously one of the best places to get your car looked at and fixed. They are extremely knowledgeable, fair, and very reasonable price wise. They have a nice sitting area with couches, chairs, desks and WiFi not to mention beverages and Keurig coffee! They are an all around auto shop, with great customer service and A+ service.

This business is run with an incredible amount of respect for every individual. Several months ago after shopping around at various used car dealerships, I purchased my Honda from Foreign accents. I could not have been more pleased with the respect their salesman showed me. I did not feel pressure to buy any vehicle, but felt that he showed me the best options for my price range and what i specified i wanted.
Several months later, when the differential on my car was having some problems, I brought my car in to the shop and Randy, the owner and his brother Scott continued to treat me with kindness

Randy renewed my faith in people as he fixed my daughter's broken dash and power steering fluid at no further cost to us. We had taken her Passat to them on several occasions and were not pleased with their customer service, but after talking to Randy, the owner, he made it right and did the repairs for free. A big thank you to Randy!

It feels good to find a shop that is open, honest, does good work and prices fairly.
I've been using FA for a several years to perform scheduled (and some unscheduled) maintenance on my 2003 Boxster. Never an issue and always fair and helpful.
Recently, our 1997 maxima needed front axles replaced. Unfortunately, the replacement parts that come from overseas do not work as advertised. The guys at FA tried 3 different manufacturers and installed and reinstalled the axles each time until it appears we finally found a winner. During the whole 4 month fiasco, FA was professional, friendly

Rip off. Ordered extra items without consulting me. Kept car for 5 days without updating me on progress. $1300 later they finally figured out two wires were crossed by someone who I bought the car from. Honestly think they took advantage of me because I'm a girl. Poor taste. Worse karma!! 1973 280SL.

If you have a vintage European car, this is the place for you. They actually have a resident BRITISH car mechanic on staff for all your Jag, MG, Rover, Triumph and Austin Healey needs. Hell, if you have a Jensen, he can work on that too!
I sent a friend of mine up there first, he was our guinea pig. He had a Porsche Boxster that smoked so much on start-up, the EPA always came in to name the parking lot a Superfund Site. All of the Porsche mechanics in the area suggested a complete engine rebuild... this includes the Porsche DEALER in town.
