Dear Sam. I wanted to thank you and your staff for being so helpful to my son when his Jeep needed service. It's difficult enough for kids to be in college but to be at school so far from home makes it even harder when problems arise. I appreciate all of the help you gave to him when his Jeep needed transmission work. It was a stroke of luck to have found a place that we can trust not to take advantage of a college kid and willing to deal with a worried Mom calling from far away. Thank you!
I normally do not leave reviews but I had such a great experience with C&D Auto I felt inclined to do this. First let me say that it is a parental nightmare to have something happen to your child's car and be hours away. From beginning to end the staff at C&D were great. Andy was incredibly professional and kept me informed every step of the way. I truly believe they cared about my daughter's safety and the safety of the vehicle. I am truly thankful and will definitely recommend this garage to everyone.

If you ever get stuck in college park , C&D a family run type place that has always taken care of me never overcharged, always kept me updated on every step before they charged, and even walked me into the shop to show me how to check things or explain the problem. They are phenomenal, and can do just about anything you might need. I drive a temperamental Mercedes, and usually I'm upcharged just because they are a pain to work with but C&D always give me a fair rate and have never been anything less then fair and thorough and patient and understanding and kind.

I've been going to C&D since I was a kid. My parents would always bring their cars here and Sam was so nice! Now as an adult I still bring my car for body shop or mechanic problems. C&D always has great prices and I know they are honest. My insurance company and rental car company recommends them too. I don't know much about cars but they don't take advantage of me! Sam Jarian always asks about my family as well. It's a great business and I definitely recommend them.

Awesome service. I called them at 5:05 wondering about an oil change. They close at 6 but he told me to come on anyway. I got there and was in and out in 20 minutes (maybe even less). They didn't try to up sell me like a lot of the chains typically do. If you're gonna spend $30 on an oil change you might as well get the friendly and super quick service free of charge.

When I'm looking for a mechanic, I'm looking for guys who are knowledgeable, honest, and charge a fair price. These guys are exactly that.

My husband and I have been taking our cars to C & D for eight years and we really trust the work they do. They provide accurate estimates before starting work, honest assessments of what needs to be done and fair prices. Their work is outstanding and they stand by it.

I am an 18 year satisfied customer of C& D Auto Service. I have had several cars serviced at C & D Auto. The prices are great and the staff are professional and efficient. I am delighted to have found such a honesty place of business. I would highly recommend C& D Auto Service.

I wanted very much to be mad at these guys when a series of things went wrong with my car. I mean, what do I know about cars? They could be trying to rip me off. On top of that it takes me 40 minutes to get there since I moved. Just give me a reason to find a closer mechanic.

I have been a customer of C&D Auto Service for over 10 years. The owner Sam Jarian has always taken good care of my vehicles. The prices are reasonable, the work is done in a very timely manner and they provide excellent customer service. They make sure you re educated on every repair being done to your vehicle, which is why I keep coming back!!!! It s hard to find good honest mechanics these days. If you live in there area , I highly recommend you check it out for yourself. I m confident you will not be disappointed with the service.

C & D came through in the clutch again! Last week, the red "BRAKE" light on my car's control panel started coming on, as well as a message about "BRAKE FLUID." My husband would pour brake fluid in, the brakes would work fine, then shortly thereafter, the light and message would appear again. My husband called C & D and let them know what was happening, and it was suggested he take our car in for a diagnostic. Once my husband got there and the car was examined, the technician determined that the left brake line was broken and needed to be replaced.

I don't really know where to begin with this review but these guys were incredible when we stopped in last week.
This place is AMAZING, I would 100% recommend it. The owner is not only knowledgable but also a humble and honest person.

I did a walk-in oil change, which only cost $35 including the filter, and they got it finished in less than an hour, while also checking for other maintenance issues.

C & D Auto is the best anywhere!! It has been my privilege to assist with automotive repairs for my Military Son. He now resides at College Park and I am a resident of Washington State. My first experience with C & D was in April 2016, when my Son was on Orders, out of state. His fiance was home alone and the Lexus wouldn't start, although the battery had recently been replaced.
