High Tech Auto & Truck Center

Best communication and reasonable prices. Spoke with my technician over the phone one-​on-​one and didn’t have to discuss work with an intermediary desk guy who doesn’t know what’s happening.
That being said, the guys that work the desk and take the phone calls also clearly know their stuff. If you have a Jeep in the Northern VA area and need some heavy duty work done, there is nowhere else to take it but High Tech. 100% satisfied, will be back for more. Thanks to Brandon and Scotty!

Want to take your vehicle some place where the people are honest AND reliable? This is your place then. I took my vehicle here for work and wound up spending $ 800 less than the estimated price bc they didn’t need to replace something they thought they would need to. And the reason they didn’t need to replace it is bc they did the work carefully and we’re able to salvage what I had (however included it in my estimate so i wouldnt have any surprises at the end of the repair) instead of just charging me for it to make the extra revenue, they told me I would be saving a huge amount. I will never take my car anywhere else for repairs.

Great customer service, great communication, quality work, quick service, and reasonable quote accurate prices! This is definitely the place to go if you have a Jeep or other 4×4 (I’m sure they also do great work on other vehicles as well). I took my ’01 TJ Wrangler in to High Tech after I could no longer trust a mechanic of mine. He really messed up a transfer case rebuild. The wrong sealant was used (began leaking like a sieve) and as I later found out, the internal shift fork was put in backwards. Initially it took High Tech 2 separate visits to figure out what was going on, for which they charged for both. However, I won’t hold it against them since they weren’t the ones who created the problem to begin with.
During the second visit, we realized they had to tear into my transfer case again due to shifting problems (shift fork backwards). They recommended I bring the vehicle back to my mechanic to warranty the work. Since I no longer trusted my other mechanic, I went ahead and had High Tech do the work.
After that visit, I thought everything was going to be ok. Turns out the transfer case was still leaking. This time it was coming from the input seal of the transfer case where it mates to the transmission. So for a third time, I brought my Jeep back to High Tech. They didn’t charge me for this visit though. I only had to pay for the input seal which wasn’t much. I’m positive this leak was due to my previous mechanic’s use of incorrect sealant around the input seal retainer. But since High Tech missed this leak the first time around (reason for the initial visit), they warrantied the work for me at no charge except for the cost of the replacement seal. Sounds fair to me!
Lastly, they do great work and are efficient. Each visit only took a day to complete. They really pay attention to detail as well. When I examined the underside of my Jeep after the repairs, all the components were installed correctly just as they were before, exactly how I had previously aligned some of them. This definitely is not the case with all shops or mechanics. In the future when I have any problems with my Jeep I can’t fix myself, High Tech is where I’m headed.
Additional Rambling:
In my experience, you need to go to a shop that has experience with your make/​model of vehicle. You’d think Jeeps are stupid simple to work on that any place can easily repair, right? WRONG! I’ve had multiple shops and different mechanics FUBAR my Jeep so bad it’s not even funny (including that one mechanic I mentioned above). So when you can’t do things yourself, it definitely helps to take your vehicle to a shop who is familiar with your vehicle. That can definitely be said about High Tech and Jeeps. The tech who worked on my Jeep owns a TJ himself, so he was very familiar with what he was doing. If you need work done on your Jeep, I can definitely endorse High Tech as the place to go! Give ‘em a holler today!

Once again, High Tech provides outstanding service for my 2009 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. The work list was long: new ring and pinion install, new rear Truetrac install, new adjustable control arms upper/​lower, and front/​back, a Dana 30 front axle sleeve and gusset install, and new ball joints. Dropped the vehicle off Monday, 27 July in the morning at 8:00, with an expected completion for the work of Wednesday evening. Got a call around 1030 that morning to let me know the vehicle had been inspected and that there were a couple of other issues that needed my attention. Quick estimate, reasonable cost, and off we go. I called Tuesday around 1030 to check and see if there were any other problems and the tech (Joey I believe) had just finished ALL of the work with the exception of the modified alignment. Tremendous! Picked my Jeep up around 4:00 in the afternoon, and it’s running great. Only been a day but this is my third trip to High Tech in the past year and a half. Some maintenance, a lot of mods and the work has always been great. Super customer service (even with me bugging them!), and excellent work. My thanks again to High Tech for doing such a great job! This is why I will keep bringing my Jeep to High Tech!

Quality professionals who worked with me on options and pricing. Towed my 1999 Jeep Wrangler in after another shop said I needed some replacements. High Tech was able to rebuild («We can rebuild [it]…we have the technology,» — 600 Million Dollar Man). Saved me a ton of money and the Jeep runs better than it has in ages. Glad to know I now have a go to shop for all my Wrangler Needs!

I called Costco and inquired about getting a nail/​hole plugged in a tire. They indicated it would be a 2 – 3 hour wait. After searching Unilocal for a nearby tire service co., I came across High Tech. I spoke w/​Brandon who was very polite, upbeat and said that they should be able to take care of it and to come in in so they can take a look. I was in and out of there within 30 mins! They even had cozy chairs, tv, candy and coffee/​soda/​water avail. That’s the kind of service that we would all like to experience.

Been a customer of High Tech since literally before the turn of the century when they did work on my Wrangler treating a high school kid honestly and with respect. Returned to them now that I own a 4Runner to find the place has not only grown but even improved.
Excellent staff, communication, and work. One of the few places that will happily install stuff you buy yourself or finish your project for you. Happy to see how well they are doing and will continue to be a customer for years.

Overcharge, under-​deliver. Give quotes that mean nothing, offer products they don’t actually have for sale. Take your pick. Bad shop all around.

I recently went to High Tech to have some work done to my Jeep. I had a part purchased elsewhere installed here and they had no problems with that. Before I had the work done, I sent them the installation instructions from the manufacture and they gave me a total «out the door» price that was significantly lower than the other places in N. VA I contacted.
Overall I’m happy with the work performed. It was a rare install and I couldn’t find a place that had installed that part before, but their labor rate was reasonable. Their work was top notch, and I would recommend them to a friend.
As a side note, I had to wait since I couldn’t get a ride and was there for 6 hours. They were all really nice and didn’t mind, and even included me in their lunch order.

I recently had my Jeep Wrangler serviced by these guys. It needed some much needed TLC and Matt was great at tell me what my options were. He was very fast to respond to any of my questions via email and phone. Since I picked up my Jeep it feels like a completely new truck and I love it even more now. They recommended that I get new tires in the near future and I will most likely have them installed by High Tech.

I just went to High Tech for an oil change, but I called ahead in the morning and got the oil change that afternoon. The people I talked to, on the phone and in the shop, were all friendly, and I was given a list of services my car could use, but not pressured to get any of them right away.
I saw a review below that says they had a small waiting room, but I think they must have remodeled. When I went, there were several chairs, in addition to water, coffee, sodas, and popcorn. The coffee was free; I didn’t ask about anything else, and there weren’t any prices listed. I’d brought my laptop and was able to do some work online while I waited. I had a very enjoyable experience.

Recently installed a new lift on my FJ and needed a alignment. These guys where able to accommodate me the same day and was quick. I had asked for a custom alignment since i was going bigger in tire size and they where able to do so. A lil on the expensive side, but the 2 hour drive back home afterwards proved money well spent as I would not have to make the pain in the ass drive back because the job was done right.

I took my jeep to them to have some foglights installed, when my local mechanic balked at the request.
They did a good job, and made the install look factory.
I would bring more work to them

I’m in the market for a 4×4 and am spending time about thinking about various aftermarket mods I’d like to implement: suspension lift, larger wheels and tires, Warn winch/​brush guard/​grill guard, flood lights, and more.
The guys at High Tech answered all of my questions — and gave me a full color parts catalog to take with me to look over!
Check out High Tech for your 4×4 needs!

This is absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt, the best shop you can find in the state of Virginia, the DC Metro Area, and probably east of the Mississippi. Bobby and his crew are nothing short of amazing in their professionalism, quality of work, and honesty. You can tell from the first step in the door they care about what they do. Ever since I discovered this shop I take my truck there for ALL services and custom work. Their mechanics know exactly what they’re doing and the customer service is unimaginable. Whether you need an oil change or need to get a custom suspension installed, High Tech will be able to get you squared away. I recommend them to anyone in the area that I speak to, and I know someone from Indiana who is driving out to Chantilly specifically to have High Tech work on his truck. This shop is worth the trip.

I recently took my 2001 TJ Sahara in to Bobby. I put a basic 4″ Rough Country lift on my Jeep myself. I had to have a wheel alignment and also there was alot of play in the steering. The dealer I bought the Rough Country lift sold me the least inexpensive lift I could buy, which is not necessarily what I was after, in fact, I entertained the same lift system that had added components and that was twice the money but they said I didnt «NEED» all that if I wasnt off-​roading and I am a primarily daily jeep driver… Well, I will say that Bobby, while he has a tendancy to come across heavy, knows alot about 4×4 systems — he likes to test your knowledge, which can come across harsh… but when demonstrating a general understanding of your system yourself, he does a nice job explaining where some of the problems might be on mine. As it turned out, I did need the fully adjustable track bar for the front. Made a huge difference. Bobby’s tech checked all my other install points and said they were fine. He made one adjustment to the bleeder valve tube I forgot to reconnect on the rear axle — it was too short so he installed a new one for me — Thanks! Upon pickup Bobby gave me another estimate for other items I «should» address within a couple months and also a list of «nice to haves» to consider. Very much appreciated. He did a real nice job explaining the items on the estimates, new brake lines which I will do, found a crack in my radiator for replacement soon. Also recommended a slip koke differential so I can eliminate a little more of the remaining vibration i am getting in 1^st gear — he said this would enable me to remove the transfer drop box kit I put on. I didnt get raked over the coals and felt like what paid for: my alignment and track bar was reasonable and good work.
Thanks High Tech, I will be back.

Got a big toy? Want a straight shooter mechanic? Want the work done right AND fast?
This is the place to go.

Christian’s not the only guy who waits for his truck to be worked on…
I had a mechanic friend recommend High Tech and I’m REALLY glad he did. I had been having problems with the front suspension that two other shops mis-​diagnosed. Took it to High Tech and 20 minutes later, it was on the lift and the mechanic showed me the broken part.
They did all of the work the same day — did it right the first time — and charged fair prices. They are my new go-​to place for my truck.
BTW: They have a bunch more chairs now.

These guys are hands down the best! While I lived in Arlington I would take my 1997 Jeep Wrangler for service and for aftermarket suspension, exhaust and light mods.
Their work is excellent, they’re honest and straightforward about what needs to be taken care of immediately and what can wait, and they don’t bill you for unneeded services. Bobby is a pleasure to deal with and goes above and beyond to make sure the customer is happy.
Now that I’ve moved away from the Northern Virginia area, I have yet to find a service center as dependable and trustworthy as High Tech.

I’ve taken my ’01 4Runner there for years and never had a problem with the staff or service.
Once they went out of their way and had my truck inspected when they saw the sticker was due to expire. That saved me another Saturday waiting in some line.
I’ve had regular service and repairs done. Also they don’t mind and will install customer supplied parts too.
Bobby is still the shop manager and is a good guy to talk to.
