The owner Bob is an outstanding mechanic ... trained and up to date with yearly workshops and further training. We have been using Bob as our mechanic for over 25 years. He has worked on all our cars ... old and brand new ... American and Foreign. He stays current and is like Sherlock Holmes... always solves the case. Additionally he is honest, fair and exceptionally dependable. It’s great to have a mechanic who is honest and knowledgeable.
Bob is an awesome mechanic i recommend for maryland inspection. He is amazing very helpful and patience. I am very impressive with his work. I high recommend to all my friends and family
I went in for an inspection and I knew my car was due for breaks considering the manual says to change them after 50 thousand miles. But I also knew my breaks were not that bad. The reason he failed my inspection was because of one burnt out bulb and he said my back rotors were really rusted. The owner was very nice until I said I wasn’t going to have him do the work for me and that I would do it myself. After that he was very odd and rude. When I went to change my breaks the pads were still good with even wear on them. The back rotors had a very small amount of rust. And when it comes to the burnt out side light it’s a good thing I checked both because they were both burnt out not just the left one as he claimed. This guy just wants to make money which is understandable and I bet they’re good at their job but I expect fairness and for them to stay polite even though you’re not going to make extra money off me in labor fees.
Great place to go i feel comfortable taking my cars there very nice and trustworthy mechanics :)
Always a go to place when there is an issue with either one of my vehicles. They are reasonably priced and always quickly to provide any updates. Never had any issues, and they do great work. I will always go here for my vehicle needs. I appreciate how up front and honest Bob is. If you ever need a place to go, go here!
Mr. Shamrock is always up front with costs. Im a regular customer so if he sees something that needs fixing, hell let me know.
Always does a good job and doesnt overcharge. Honest.
Saved the day for us! He always fixes whatever we need within a reasonable time and price. Thank you again! Givens family
Very shady company . I DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE doing business with them. I took my car in without any lights on the dash and came out with my service engine soon light on . I will never go back there.. He fails inspection so you can go back ....... as you can see with all the other post that gave this shop a 1 star.
I can never go wrong w Bob. Does great work & price is great. Whenever Im in town I go to him. If I have questions he helps me out. Thanks you.
They got my car fixed and passing Maryland inspection on a Saturday when they were only working a half day. Very friendly and professional!
Bob Shamrock is an honest, straight forward person. My car had an issue and he took me in right away with no appointment. I was out the door within two hours. I would recommend shamrock automotive to anyone.
Very happy with the staff and service. Fair prices and very efficient. Knowledge and expertise were exceptional. I would highly recommend them.
Shamrock Automotive is the only shop that we use in our family. I trust Bob Shamrock with not only my own vehicles, but with those of my children as well. Several times I’ve taken a vehicle in and said “I think it needs X, Y, and Z repaired”, and when later picking the vehicle up he says “Nope, just needed X. You don’t need to spend money on Y or Z for another 6 months. Bring it back then.” It’s an old school shop run by an honest and skilled mechanic - he won’t pass a vehicle for MD inspection if something is wrong, and he won’t suggest that you fix something that really doesn’t need fixing. This is the kind of shop your parents/grandparents sought out and used, and I highly recommend Shamrock Automotive for all of your service needs. Schedule ahead and drop off/pick up for best convenience.
I have been going to Shamrock automotive for ten years and its time to just say a BIG thank you to Bob and the staff for all the years of dependable, knowledgable, honest,courteous service. They go above and beyond. They ensure you understand what the issues are and what your options are, and then provide knowledgable servicing of your vehicle or RV.I cant say enough about having 100% confidence in your mechanic, its priceless.Thank you Shamrock AutomotiveFrom a happy customer now and for the future👍
Always pleased with Shamrock. Bob and his crew do good work. Trustworthy!
I am a new customer to this mechanic, but I must say I was very impressed! I was able to get my inspection done very quickly and I was able to get it done on the same day that I made the appointment. There was an issue with one of my rear calipers that caused me to fail, however The owner showed me exactly what the problem was on my car and explained it in laymans terms. The repair costs were reasonable and fair based on online price estimates for parts. I have noticed a great improvement to my cars performance after this repair. I will very likely be back for other car needs!
Bob Shamrock has been taking care of my pick-up and SUV for many years. He is Good at what he Does. Very Honest, which is hard to find at an automotive repair shop. He could have taken advantage of me several times but in the end has saved me thousands of dollars as compared to other repair shops. I will continue to support Shamrock Automotive as long as I have a car that needs servicing. Thank You Bob for taking such good care of my automobiles. Wish I could post more than 5 stars because you have earned it!
I recently moved from NY and I had my vehicle inspected here and had no issues. They set expectations on how long its going to take and delivered on time.They were honest and upfront with all details. I am definately using them for all my needs.
Honest and fair. These guys were recommended to us by the minister who married us! :-) They will be our go-to mechanics from here on in! :-) . Make sure you say hello to Harley, and give him a doggie treat when youre there!
Ive never taken my car here but son in law and daughter like it and friend likes it. Her husband goes there and his car has 300,000 miles.
Shamrock does great work. Hes timely and very reasonably priced. And he stands behind his work. I wouldnt take my vehicles anywhere else. I can definitely say hes made me a customer for life.
Theyve done right by me Ive had a lot of work done there and they stand by their work... Its a good place for automotive work ....
I have been using Shamrock Automotives services for nearly two years now. I highly recommend this shop. The owner, Bob Shamrock, is very honest, hard working and extremely accommodating of my work schedule. Ive always been impressed with the quality of the work done on my car along with the reasonable cost of service.
Its a profesional personal and excellent
I hit a pot hole that caused my tire to blow out and bent my rim. I got all new tires put on and they even got the dent out of my rim, it looks like it never happened. Customer service was so helpful and the mexhanics were awesome guys. I’m definately using them for any of my cars needs from now on
Definitely not recommend this place invent problems to get you money when a thief inspect licensed cars and bad treatment to customers. not recommendable
Honesty counts. Helpful and timely work..
Call ahead if you can. Shamrock has worked on 3 different vehicles for me. most recently repalced wheel bearings on my explorer. rapid service, reasonable price, actually was about $75.00 LESS than i was quoted and expected. the difference in the handling of my vehicle was amazing and noticed within seconds of pulling. the owner (?) is knowledgable and willing to explain what is going on with your vehicle. He has my business and Id suggest him to anyone I know
I took my car in a while back due to an oil leak. The guy said it was the gasket, etc and charged me over $800. He had my car nearly a month. Kept giving me excuses that they havent been able to get to it, etc. Finally I get it back and all was good for about 3 weeks or so and it started leaking again. I think all they did was fill it with stop leak. I didnt take it back to them or anyone else. All I do is put the stop leak in here and there and it works for a while. So Im sure thats all they did. Youve been warned about these guys.
Had my truck inspected there and he lost my inspection papers and is trying to make me repay for another one. No worries my lawyer is having a good talk with him about recomp my money plus lawyer fees
Ive been taking my vehicles to Shamrock Automotive for nearly 20 years. VERY honest and knowledgeable.
Expert service, honest and fair. I wouldnt trust my car to anyone else. Im a customer for life!
Excellent service, great guys!
Great fair shop to deal with.
If there was a lower star to give this place I would have done that, the guy is an absolute thief. I went in with my car for an inspection, car only had 23k miles on it and he failed it saying the Brake Rotors are rusted and you ll have to come back for a re inspection and pay 40$ again. I took the car to the dealer to get the rotors replaced and dealer told me there is nothing wrong with them you dont need to change these at all. This guy is just failing inspections so that he can make more money on re inspections.
These people are total scam artists. I came in with a car that was two years old and they failed my inspection. They removed my lug nut and said it was missing so they failed me. I will be in touch with the attorney general and consumer affairs
Tried to rip me off, giving me a quote for work that didnt need to be done on my car, took my car elsewhere... Was really upset when they put my car on the lift and noticed that he had spraypainted under my car with bright orange paint... Even though you cant see under my car he still should not have sprayed paint on it... That is vandalism, .... What gives them the right
Always takes great care of my families vehicles!
Have had a few cars inspected here. Great service and was able to fit in when requested.
Very good place, I have been there twice, and they have quick service and very good price. nice place to entrust your car for all kind of service and problem.
Excellent!
The car inspection:changed the wrong tire and been charged for the wheel bearing which is never been changed,never go back again
Very good service
Tried to charge me $400 for a used starter install and 4 lug nuts thats a 1 hour job if that
Have taken my vehicles there for years.
Good service
Well to start off 🙄 The owner was VERY RUDE...he talks over you and doesnt listen and lacks respect...and I would never go back or recommend this service
Ripped offs
