I’ve gone to Fairfax Salvage & Repair several times over the years with my Subaru. Their customer service is excellent! I recently went in for a sound that I thought would be a major repair. It turned out to be some rocks stuck in a place they shouldn’t have been and some missing clips. They quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem while I waited and didn’t even charge me! I would recommend them to anyone that likes friendly, affordable, dependable service. I will definitely take my car there again. Fairfax is lucky to have such a great business in it!

Very friendly group! I was looking for a part for a 1998 and they had it, pretty much still like new! Price is VERY reasonable and affordable. I'm sorry I never caught the office guys name, but very welcoming, friendly customer service! Thank you Josh and Kyle for your quick service on carefully taking the door off and looking through 6 ravs for a rare 3rd row part! Please drive SLOW. Dogs are really friendly and loves people!

I was visiting family in Fairfax. I had some worrying concerns about my vehicle after I had hit a very high and uneven pavement ledge, pretty hard in a construction zone. I needed peace of mind knowing it was safe for my long distance drive back home. They were very friendly, accommodating, and took the time to inspect my CR-V for safety on short notice. I am ever so grateful. Thank you!!!

Super fast service! I called at 8 with a leaky tire and told me to come straight in. I arrived at 8:30 and they had my tire patched and ready to go within 20 minutes.

Great service, reliable, and efficient! They did everything that was needed on my vehicle at an affordable price. They also have the cutest, well behaved pups while waiting. Definitely a place I will recommend to everyone I know, and I will be back!

Went to location for a clamp. Individual at location stated that there was a $50.00 yard charge to pull the clamp but that he MIGHT be able to sell the part for $20.00. When I said "Wow, I didn't realize how expensive such a small clamp was" He immediately changed his tone and stated he didn't have it. When I asked him if I had some how offended him. He stated it was how I said it. He then proceeded to state how he knew my "type" and how I expected him to give it to me for free! As I was leaving he made mention to go to a hardware store. Well, in fact I did take his advice and was fortunate to find exactly what I needed at the local hardware store for $2.59. I did some research later and found that these particular clamps are sold as a set with included star screws, and shipping for $16.00. It seemed like he wanted to charge me $20.00 for one. Most of the reviews here are favorable and anyone can have a bad day at some point but I was still shocked at how immature and condescending this guy was to a potential customer over such a simple matter. I learned an important lesson though. The days of the customer always being right is long gone especially at this location. If I was to give any advice to this guy for future reference He should be careful how he talks to people because someday he might insult the wrong person especially in today's environment instead of just getting a negative review .............

I had an accident with my car. I called Fairfax and they handled the towing and were able to bill insurance. I didn’t have to do a thing. My car gave them a hard time and it took a couple try’s to get it figured out and they stuck with it to the end. Friendly and honest service. Will definitely go back for other repairs

I owned a car dealership for 41 years in Vermont before retiring and I have finally found a group of honest people to deal with, the way I used to deal with my customers. Dennis Lavallee is the one of a kind person who is there to help in every way to make your auto repair a pleasure and not a nightmare. Thanks Dennis

It's a dirty auto shop and that shouldn't surprise anyone. But the service and EDUCATION they provide is very helpful to me. I ask about how my car parts are supposed to work ask for work around or cheaper options and Dennis will answer everything and let ME decide my best option. I really value that.

Excellent service in all aspects, the office assistant, Caitlin was incredibly knowledgeable. She was exceptional both over the phone for scheduling and in person at the time of my service. Jeremy was fantastic and efficient in the shop to get my vehicle back to me. Everyone was upfront about the costs and what I needed. There were NO added charges or fees unlike others. Highly recommend Robert and his fantastic crew!

12/20/22 Fairfax Salvage and Repair What a great place! A friend referred me awhile back to have my vehicle diagnosed as I was getting the run around from other shops. Dennis and his team were very helpful with all questions and accommodating. Yesterday 02/28/23 i sent an email to the team about an issue I had with my vehicle. The team called me in a timely manner and was able to get me in for a same day appointment to diagnose the issues my vehicle had. Rather than scheduling me weeks to months out Robert was able to get me an appointment for the next day 03/01/23 to have my flex pipe fixed, not only was the environment open and friendly we had a great visit playing with the three dogs while we waited (Goose, Ollie and Axel) Robert gave my seven year old daughter two boxes of cookies ❤️ which put a big smile on her face which he didn’t have to do. I highly recommend checking out Fairfax Auto and Salvage if you haven’t before!! Alexa and her pal Axel!

I go here every year for my inspection for all my vehicles. They're thorough, helpful, and knowledgeable. They're very accommodating and work to really help you understand what needs to be done. They're one of the few mechanics who really try to help you understand what's best. For example, I had an old pickup truck that I have had rust work done over the years. It failed inspection, so I brought it to them to get an estimate on the work. They highlighted that they could do the work, but it would be a losing battle with more work being required each year. In the long run, it wasn't feasible. They're very trustworthy!

Recently purchased an EJ25 NA long block from Fairfax. Spoke a few times to Dennis who was knowledgeable, honest and helpful. I am in WI and Dennis was able to ship the motor to me in a very timely manor. I am a Subaru technician and made it clear that I needed a healthy short block. Upon receiving the engine I stripped it down to the short block. I see no signs of spun bearings, excessive piston slap, or other catastrophic engine faults. I am happy with the engine I recieved. I can try to update this review when I get it all back together and running. This engine hasn't been produced in well over 20 years it was hard to find a running healthy engine. Big thank you to Dennis and Fairfax salvage. Update Engine has been put back together without changing anything on the short black. I cleaned the heads and revealed the engine. No catastrophic failure. Engine is running great. Thanks again to Fairfax Salvage.

This place is a hidden gem for anyone looking to purchase a used car in Northwest Vermont. They are open, honest and fully transparent about the vehicles they sell and their prices are better than anywhere else I've looked. I've purchased two vehicles there and have been extremely pleased both times. I also get all my maintenance and repair work done there for the same reasons
