Jacob’s Autorama

Great place good work regular pricing Jacob is a great guy.
He got my inspection and repairs done when he said he would for the price he said he would. Dealing with a person like Jacob is a pleasure he is really just a regular straight up guy.

Here is my experience with Jacob Autorama, I own a food truck and I have use Jacob to do work on it all the time. Last year year I have him to change the rear cylinder in early November of 2013, he did the job and then I left, so since we got into the cold season most of the food truck are closed till march or April, in this case I closed the food truck till early April (that means the truck was not driven)! In June 13 of2014 I was headed dc for an event early in the morning, 4.30am I was on270spur going to 495 east when the truck start feeling like it has a flat tire, I looked at my back mirrors to make sure no cars on sides then I turn my face back on the road when I see both of my rear tires on the driver side roiling on 495, I was able to pull over and got the truck towed back to him. After a week + in shop and I was going to pick up some of his parts to help him the truck was given me back with new hub, new drum, inner and outer bearings and more, most parts both from Gmc service department two blocks down on 355! I left his shop happy that I’m done with repairing for a while when a weird spiking noise come from the same tire he just fixed, I call him and he ask me to bring the truck back, so I went back to find our the backing plate was damage from the accident, then Jacob told me that is nothing important and I should comeback another day to get it fixer, apparently JASON was there witnesses what Jacob told me and he told Jacob that if he let me go like that it may happen the same thing or even worse so he crumble under the tire and bend it the backing plate where it was damage and get it fixed. In September 13 of 2014 on 295 south I have the same tire on same side Jacob has already work twice locked up while was driving, this thing just snap and it froze on its place, I had to replace to entire rear differential, when my new mechanic saw that he set in my 30 years of experience I have never seem something like that’s, anyway on the question what could possibly cause that few well known mechanics set the same thing :1)not proper mounting or overtiten the bearings 2) lack of differentiate fluid coming onto that end, well after Jacob did the job on rear differential he told me to come back in a few days so he can check the differential Fluid, for leek or whatever se reason, well 4days later I brought the truck back for a front brakes replacement, the brakes were changed .last night I was reversed the truck when a loud noise come from the front tires, It happen on shell gas station over shady grove, apparently the service shop was open and the (mechanics) noticed me and loud noise, they pull the front tire out and they noticed that the caliber is loosed and all brackets –pins etc are missing, bolt broken. After all this experience with Jacob Autorama he never admit faulty repair he is blaming everyone else bud his work. Yesterday after all this back and forth with him and his insurance we had a lawyer and fail a law suit in rockville against him Before you go at Jacobs Autorama I advise you to first check around area for a better shop !

I heard about Jacob’s Autorama through a local networking group — where nearly everyone in the group had used sucessfully their service at one time or another. I had been having some ongoing problems with a local shop (they were unable to diagnose a brake problem that resulted in my needing a replacement of two expensive parts) and, therefore, was a bit reluctant to bring my car back to them. Having recently experienced an emergency brakes failure, along with a host of other random problems typical to an older car (a squeaky driver seat, a dead headlight, and a need for an overall tuneup), I decided to give Jacob’s Autorama a try. Over the past month or so, Jacob and his crew have managed to get my 8-​year-​old Honda Element into tip-​top shape. I have found that both Jacob and his team are consistently personable, honest, and forthright with their business. I have already referred two friends to Jacob’s Autorama (both pleased) and I intend to continue doing business with them in the future!

I was referred to Jacobs Autorama from Repair Jungle (great business to use when looking for reliable auto services). I am very pleased with the quality of work from Jacob’s. My Mustang needed a new exhaust, manifold, oil change, rear tail light and seat belt unit replaced and he gave me an excellent price I received my car back in a timely manner. Jacob works to find you the best deals available and works to save you money. He is a nice and friendly businessman and I would take me car back to him again.

I was referred to Jacob’s repair shop through a third party website called Repair Jungle, upon meeting Jacob & Jason my entire outlook on repair shops had changed almost immediately! Mr. Jacob was very helpful an honest with me from the moment i walked through the door.
My repair had been a headache for the past three weeks but the problem was diagnosed, part ordered an shipped along with the repair in less than 3 hours! Not to mention the cost was a price i couldn’t dare to refuse. I will suggest this shop to anyone looking for a comfortable & warm experience along with your finances kept in mind!

I have been going to Jacobs garage for several years. A small and honest shop and convenient to Metro. Recommended!

Not good. Their work was not done with precision and very sub par. Seems as though they want to get the work done quickly and sacrifice workmanship for it. I had to bring my car back several times because the job was done incorrectly the first time.

I sent my son to Jacob’s Autorama because he needed work done on his brakes. I was very impressed at how Jacob educated my son on the work that needed to be completed and he put an emphasis on safety.

Jacob who owns Jacob’s Autorama is a great businessman. If you ever seek out his services you will not only find great service, but discover a friend. Jacob is an Israeli man with a generous heart. Countless times I’ve seen him give customers rides when they needed a quick lift. I’ve been also lucky enough to share in the food that customers often bring him. He’s a grandfather and warm like one. His staff isn’t rude and have offered me help countless times as well.
I also like Jacob’s because he and his shop offer fair pricing. A couple of times I brought my car in for an estimate and while the car stayed overnight, since there was no work needed, Jacob didn’t charge me anything. He even filled up the air in my tires for me.
