What clients say about Lyons Automotive Center in Dumfries (VA)
The Lyons Automotive team continues to prove why they are the place to go when I need repairs. Trust, empathy and overall great work. Paul and Brett were extremely detailed and on top of communication throughout the time that my vehicle was in the shop for some major repairs and, as usual, the mechanics did a phenomenal job diagnosing and fixing the issue. Furthermore, another shop quoted me to fix an issue that Lyons Automotive quickly pointed out to not be true and saved me well over $3500. Thanks again to everyone at the shop!
I took my car to them yesterday for a diagnostic and inspection. Both Greg and Brett were very professional and took extra care of my concerns. I highly recommend them.
My father has been going to this repair shop for years and now I do. They do honest work. I have brought my car in multiple times and they have only charged me when they actually fix something.
These folks epitomize customer service. After my daughter’s van overheated and had to be towed to a service facility, she wisely chose Lyons Automotive Center. The vehicle was ready the next day after the water pump, thermostat, and serpentine belt had been replaced. A top notch operation.
This scam-like place lied to me and wasted my time. They took my car for an emissions inspection and charged me for it, then later told me they couldn’t perform the emissions inspection without a valid safety inspection. In reality, these two inspections are completely unrelated and do not depend on each other. The lady at the front desk was extremely rude. Not recommended for any auto related services.
Lyons has always given excellent FAIR priced service.
They stand by their work, and actually tell you if work is not needed! You will NOT get that at a dealership.
I've used them for years and am very happy with their incredible service on all of my vehicles.
I’ve called twice trying to schedule an appointment to bring my car in and each time, the lady on the phone is extremely rude. The first time I called, she asked my name so I told her and proceeded to spell my name and she cuts me off in the middle of me spelling and stared asking me other questions with an attitude. I couldn’t deal with her so I decided I’d try the next day and hopefully she’ll be in a better mood. Nope I was wrong. Called next day and she still had the same nasty attitude. I don’t know how anyone deals with this woman. So unprofessional
First time customer very pleased with the service at Lyons automotive, no hassle, no over charging just plane and simple professional service! Lyons automotive will be my new go to for all my automotive needs.
Fast and friendly service! We’ve been longtime customers but most recently they helped diagnose and fix an issue with our F150. Lyons always takes the time to make sure they have it right when repairing our cars. We appreciate them and our fully fixed truck!
12/08/2025 - Another outstanding Lyons Automotive experience. I made an appointment for a state inspection, oil and filter change, and tire rotations. They thoroughly checked our vehicle even to the point of changing out the key fob battery. When we picked up our vehicle, they also quickly checked the tire pressure on our other vehicle just to be sure we were ready for the winter weather!
It's always a pleasure working with this customer focused, professional team. You can count on them to do quality work and do ONLY what is necessary. Thanks to the entire Lyons Team for delivering customer satisfaction!!
My 2012vJeep having several engine codes and totally as usual, Lyons found, corrected and got my Jeep back running like new. Trusted professional service and reasonably price. Been a long time customer, and will continue to be for many more years!
I can’t say enough good things about Lyons Automotive. My parents and I have brought our vehicles to them for years. Now that it is just me and my 87 year old Mother who I am a caregiver for, it is more important than ever to have a trustworthy, credible and professional business to take our one car to. Mr Lyons and Brett (son) have always gone the extra mile to take good care of our needs in a cost effective and expedient way to keep us from being without a vehicle for the shortest amount of time possible while in for repair(s) due to the circumstances of caring for an elderly parent. I remain grateful and recommend them every opportunity I can. Thanks for all you do.
Thank you so much for taking care of me this morning and replacing my right head light. I drive in the dark to work every day and this was a safety issue for me. Appreciate you folks! Respectfully and with thanks,
Marie
Lyons is a high-quality, customer-focused shop. Every encounter with them is pleasant and efficient. They stand behind their work, tell you when they can't help (instead of charging you for nothing), and are reasonably priced.
Been going here for 10+ years and two cars, they know their stuff and are very reasonable and easy to work with, plus they're just nice folks. The only problem is they've gotten better known!! So they're always busy lol. Again, highly recommend.
As usual, I received excellent service on my Ford Ranger! The service was quick and convenient. I am so grateful to have Lyons Automotive to keep my vehicles running safely!!

They never offered repairs that weren’t necessary and all repairs and regular maintenance has and is fairly priced, and their work is always professional and done correctly the first time no gimmicks or attempts to fix one thing and break another to keep you coming back always above board I would recommend Lyons to anyone who needs an honest and professional place to take their cars to fix and maintain without question.
Lyons has been my family's go-to local mechanic for 13+ years. They were recommended to me as being fair and honest, and they have absolutely lived up to those expectations. I've never had a bad experience with them for any of my three vehicles. Their customer service is top notch and no pressure. I would recommend them for any service. The Barth Family gives Lyons two thumbs up!
Took my car for emission test, they are all so friendly and helpful. I did not catch one of the guys name who walked me through the process. Very kind, helpful and knowledgeable staff
