Seminary Plaza Exxon Service Station

Worst place with worst customer service. came in for an inspection which i failed because of my tires and one brake light. guy told me go do your tires, come back and i will do the break light for you for $ 20. I went to get the tires replaced and called afterwards to make sure they were still open and told the guy I would be there in 5min. Got there in exactly 7 min told the guy I got my tires replaced but then he told me it was too late to replace the brake light (it was one center brake light) and that he would have done the reinspection if I had my brake light replaced. I pleaded with him and he told me they had to go home and refused to do it.
First of all, it literally takes 1 minute to replace a brake light. I know this because I went and bought the center brake light for $ 8 at autozone and all I had to do was pop open my trunk, twist out the old light and twist back in the new one.
ALL THERE IS TO IT.
This FAT PIECE OF TRASH just sat there and basically told me he couldn’t do 1 minute of work because they had to go home. On top of that, there was already another customer there getting his car worked on so clearly, 1minute of work would not have made the difference. Not to mention I went to another place and they slapped on a new state sticker for me in about 3 minutes.
This place is total BS.
I called them before arriving, it was 1 minute of extra work, there was still a customer inside waiting for his car to be done which by the way was being worked on by another employee that was there, and this guy juss sat there with his dick in his hand n all he did was complain that they had to go home.
I would NEVER come back and I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone else. As a matter of fact I will make sure to tell everyone NOT to go there.

Jim is the rare mechanic who you can trust. He is professional, knowledgeable and honest. He tells you exactly what your car needs to run smoothly and he gets the best price. I’ve shopped around for many mechanics before I found Jim back in 2002. I bring my car to him even though I don’t live in Alexandria.

I have been coming to this service station for the past 20 years and it is, hands down, the BEST place to get my car serviced. The people are fantastic. Jim is the nicest and most honest mechanic I have ever met. His team, some of whom are his family, are the same. The prices are incredibly reasonable and they have very fast service. I have moved quite a bit but continue to drive, sometimes up to an hour, to get my car serviced here. LOVE this place!

This place is close to my place so it’s an easy drop off for inspections. Today I came for an alignment and after he got it in the lift he warned my that one of my front tires was bad. He called back a short time later to warn me that the other front one was bad and it wasn’t worth doing the alignment until I got them both replaced. They were only a year old so I wasn’t too happy about the situation, but I did appreciate their honesty and pleasant attitude.

The guys at Seminary Plaza Exxon do great work. They were upfront and honest about pricing and options and finished working on my vehicle earlier than expected.
