Economy Auto Care Center

Without question, this should be your choice for auto care in the Hanover/Ashland/Mechanicsville area. Their work is excellent and fast, but their service is what sets Economy Auto apart. First, their communication is excellent. Throughout the process of your car getting worked on, there is constant communication and nothing is done without your approval. Economy Auto also does a very good job of explaining your options in a way that is easy to understand. Second, the overall service is outstanding. I have been in a situation where, at no fault of Economy Auto, a defective part was used in a repair on my car. Not only did Economy Auto fix this at no extra cost to me, they also scheduled and paid for a tow truck to get my car to their garage so that they could get it fixed as quickly as p

Fast, reliable, and incredibly knowledgeable—thank you to the team at Economy Auto Care for going above and beyond to help my manager replace the battery in his 2015 Cadillac Escalade. It was a complicated setup with a CPU and a crossbar under the hood, and after visiting multiple places without luck, a kind gentleman at Advanced Auto pointed me in your direction. I’m so grateful he did. Economy Auto Care handled the challenge with skill and care, and their willingness to step in during a tough situation speaks volumes. This experience reminded me why I love the Ashland community—people here truly show up when you need them most. Thank you again!

Always reliable I’ve been going to Economy for a few years now. I know NOTHING about cars. I can always trust that they “have my back” and check everything before I walk out the door…. Never overcharging and never suggesting services I don’t need…. Always giving me a heads up if something big is coming up… just perfect!

This was our second time using economy auto. They were amazing with my husband's muffler, so I brought my car in because they advertised in the office that they restored headlights. When I paid the $110, I was not shown the headlights, but was told that they only were able to get some of it clean, but that the inside was hazy and that's why it isn't clear. When I went out to see the headlights, I was shocked to see the circular sanding lines and poor job they did. I went to walmart. Bought a rainx headlight restoration kit for $22 and Meguiar's Keep Clear Headlight Coatingfor $8; and just spent the last 45 minutes restoring and working on my headlights, and they look brand new! We have recommended friends to this company, and I am so disappointed. The first pics are after they did the hea

Sometimes you get the pleasure of working with people who are really good at their job. It’s rare and working with Johnny and Mark at EAC is one such opportunity! After calling nearly every auto shop in Richmond, they were the only ones who would take on the job of building a stainless steel cat-back exhaust system for my 80 series Land Cruiser. They provided great same-day service and it was truly a pleasure to watch Mark, their exhaust technician, work his magic. He is extremely knowledgeable and friendly and worked with me to design a tailor-made system that fit my needs perfectly. Like I said, it was a rare opportunity to see somebody who is very good at his job in action. Moreover, Johnny provides top-notch front of house customer care and I really appreciated the fact that my appoin
