Today's vehicles are designed to light up indicator lights in the dashboard when something goes wrong. Each of those lights means different things ranging from low tire pressure to the check engine light. Is there a warning light on in the dash of your car that looks like a little engine, says "check engine", or "service engine soon"?
Regular changing of your cars engine oil and oil filter is the most important maintenance item you can perform to extend the life of your vehicle's engine. When you have your oil changed at Carriage House Automotive an oil change will include more than just draining out the oil and refilling it. We make sure we are using the proper oil for your vehicle and install a quality oil filter that is right for your car.
You need your car to start reliably don't you? Having a good battery is a big part of making that happen. No one wants to get stuck in a car that won't start, out in the middle of nowhere, because of a bad battery. Batteries do more than just starting a car though. Your car's battery in Frederick, MD is extremely important for the correct operation of the car and it's electrical systems.
The job of the wiper blade is to clean the windshield and allow proper visibility on demand. Wiper blades are made of rubber and exposed to the outside weather. Although rubber is a somewhat durable material, its chemical compound changes rapidly in either extreme heat or cold. It can quickly deteriorate under such conditions.
When it comes to staying safe while driving having properly functioning brakes is vital. You use your car's brakes every time you drive! You should have the confidence of knowing that when you press your foot on the brake, your car is going to stop. A such your cars brakes need to be inspected at least once a year or every 15,000 miles.

Carriage House has been maintaining our imports for many years: doing everything from normal r&m, to full turbo replacement.
The Reynolds brothers Marcus and Michael and their team have always have done excellent work: efficient, quick and clean, with fair pricing.
When I took my BMW with over 150k in to the dealer for a safety recall, the service manager said the car was in fine shape and was being maintained very well.
That speaks volumes about Carriage House.

I chose Carriage House to do repairs on a very old
car of ours (used by my kids) based on online reviews, which were all excellent. They were friendly, professional, reasonably/competitively priced and kept me posted on the repair process. Will definitely use them again if we need to!

Have used Carriage House many times over the years to service our German vehicles and have been extremely pleased with the professionalism, quality of work, condition of their facilities and the quality of parts used for service and repairs. Highly recommend Carriage House for minor maintenance to major repairs.

Called this shop on a recommendation of my trusted mechanic. Shop was honest about what they could and could not do for me given specific tools and parts. Spent time talking with me about my personal options even knowing they weren't able to make money from me at this time. I felt valued respected in this short conversation. I will use them again for sure.

Mark and his team are incredibly professional, skilled and honest. From the moment I called and spoke with him I felt comfortable and knew I was in good hands. After dropping off my car he would follow up with phone calls to update me and answer any questions or concerns. My Subaru Impreza is now running flawlessly. I highly recommend them.

Carriage house was a pleasure to work with. They got my car in quickly and had it diagnosed and fixed within 1 day! Mark was helpful and straight forward with the quoting process. He made sure to present all the options and scenarios so I could make an informed decision. I will be back in the future.

Honest, upfront, and professional auto shop! I needed an MD inspection ASAP and didn’t realize how difficult it was until after I called several other auto shops. All stating they had availability the next week! I called Carriage House Automotive. Mark was upfront and said there was availability Friday but maybe we can squeeze you in later in the afternoon, with no guarantee though. Understandable, so I took the chance. Glad I did! Mark and the tech(s) fit me in their busy day shortly after I arrived and had me out of there with a successful MD Inspection!
