Foster's Automotive in
Mechanicsburg (PA)

Absolutely an amazing shop! I had to take my car here for an inspection and some new tires. Fosters auto truly treats you like a family member. They were constantly trying to find me the best deals and when I needed a fog light replaced completely, they called and researched where they could get the best deal for me. Most auto shops don’t do that. I was happy to support this local business and I’ll definitely be back for maintenance and anytime I need auto work done. Support local and bring your car here instead of seeing the big guys.

I can’t speak highly enough about this business and the guys working there!! Ran into a sudden issue and after being told they wouldn’t be able to get my car fixed until the next afternoon, I was back on the road within a couple of hours!! The owner is very knowledgeable and personable! I live an hour away and they left such an impression on me, I’ll return for regular service! Thanks guys ?

Only the best for my baby

Fosters is a great place to have your repairs done!! They are honest, reliable and professional. They will be our "go to" from now on and we will refer them to our friends and family!!

Very pleasant to speak with and extremely knowledgeable in their craft. Thank you for your Service!

Dwight and his crew are the best! Work gets done quickly and they will always take the time to explain things. Highly recommended.

Excellent service. Dwight and Vince are incredibly friendly and honest. I’ve been going there for many years.

I had a brake noise while I was down in Baltimore for work. A dealership quoted me over $1,000 in parts alone to replace both rear brakes; pads, calipers, rotors, the works. I didn't have it at the time, so I brought the car back home and called Foster's. A bent clip rubbing on the rotor. That's it. That's what made the noise. $150 out the door, and Foster's is getting my continued business. A little honesty goes a long way.

Local business easy to make appointments friendly people. Service was quick and easy to explain everything in a manner that you can understand. I am happy with the service, and I like supporting supporting our local businesses as well.

Driving through Mechanicsburg when the power steering went out on our 2002 Eurovan Camper. Called Foster's and was told to bring it in and they would see what they could do. They took the van right in, identified the issue and was able to fix it right away and get us back on the road! Would recommend!

This is a great business! I got my car inspected and the men that work here really cared! I will definitely always come back☺

Aligned my car quickly and accurately. No issues working with modified cars. Good guys!

Total rip off. Charged almost 900, and the car broke down two days later.

These guys are great. Very knowledgeable mechanics. Always try and fit me in asap when I have an issue. And they have no problem discussing issues with my car as I'm very vigilant and try to keep up with the maintenance of my car. And I do research and like to know things and ask a lot of questions. They have always been very nice to me and don't get bothered , because I want to know what's going on with my vehicle that I'm paying for to be fixed. Very happy to have found such a great shop. I highly recommend them to anyone...

Highly recommend. Quick service and reasonable prices.

The guys at Fosters know what they're doing when it comes to VWs. Complete diagnostic print out of everything they replaced, repaired or adjusted.. Definitely would recommend them to any of my friends and family. You will being seeing me again if any repairs may be needed in the future

My go-to place for when my manufacturer’s warranty expires on my cars (Audi, Mini Cooper and BMW over the years). Less expensive and more available appointment times than the dealership. They know what they are doing!

Great shop. Everyone was friendly, welcoming and professional. Would highly recommend to all my friends and family.

Fosters is great! Workers are very friendly and nice- trustworthy people!

Foster's took my car, diagnosed and repaired in less than 24 hours from the time that I dropped it at their location. Looks like they've gained a new client! Thanks Dwight and Vince. 4.5 stars at this point; perhaps more after the next service!

DONT DO BUSINESS HERE claim to be an automotive shop but will not install customer parts: they want to order the parts to up charge you. I wish I could leave no stars.

I got an inspection done and they charged me $30 to look the car over and then in addition what the inspection cost.

Good small shop to take German cars. Never had any issues with getting appointments or fast, friendly service.

Wasn't easy to find the place even with GPS. Located between 2 alleys behind the main Street. When I got there the owner was on the phone at the front. I hallo at him and stand in front of him, I waited 20 minute before he could hang up after he is done from conversation about oil change, oil color, dropping keys!! Didn't apologize, the inspection was going to be $95 !!

Had some custom exhaust work done on my 30 year old BMW, joining a new muffler and headers together. The exhaust fits and sounds great, and the guys there also did some troubleshooting on an idle problem that I've been chasing for over a year. They diagnosed the faulty part and my car's never run better!

We had two cars down at the same time with transmission problems! The guys at Fosters were extremely helpful to us. They gave us the straight story on what was going on with both cars and presented the most attractive prices to make the repairs. Scheduling the work was easy and they turned the cars around very fast. I would recommend these guys to anybody that needs work done on their vehicles. We're going to come to them for our needs going forward.

My power steering started to act up and despite being booked all day, they told me they would do a quick look-see in case it was a simple problem...and to being the car at 2pm. I did and I was out of there is less than 15 minutes NO CHARGE! (I made them take $20 anyway). This is an excellent well-run, honest business.
