    He always does a good job and is very reasonably priced.

  • *****

    Charlie Mullins is an honest guy who knows Volvos better than any other shop I've dealt with in a very long time. Definitely recommend

  • *****

    Charlie is fantastic to work with! He noticed I was having car trouble and reached out directly to help. He diagnosed the issue in about 20 seconds and gave me a straightforward easy solution to fix it myself. Not being very car savvy, I engaged his help in replacing my battery after giving my car an immediate jump to get me through the night. competitive pricing and immense professionalism. I cannot imagine doing business with a different mechanic ever again.

  • *****

    I have been coming here to get my 96 Volvo 850 restored and brought back to life, and without a doubt Mr. Mullins is the best I've ever seen. He knows the problem, fixes it at a cost that's usually a third of what the dealer would charge, and is no nonsense about what's needed and what's not.

    He is a rare breed in the Volvo business and I can't thank him enough. Absolutely an honest guy that does quality work. Get it done here.

    The BEST.Hands down The Best. 10 stars if i could

    Charles Mullins is simply THE best. He's expert at what he does, takes pride in his excellent work, charges reasonably, and is totally honest. Where else can you drop off a car and tell the mechanic to do whatever needs to be done? I've been going here for almost 30 years and cannot praise the service enough.

    HOMERUN all the way around. After trying to book an appointment all over town without success, I stumbled across Mullins Auto Repair via Google. Not only did Charlie get my Volvo XC60 in for a diagnosis, he immediately fixed it and at a great price. Had my car complete in a couple of hours. I will be back!

    Charles loves working on cars and it shows! Honest work, done right. Enough said.

    Charlie is one of the best mechanics I've dealt with in my life. He's great at working on cars, punctual, and reasonably priced

    My son has an old Volvo S40 and the oil dip stick kept popping out spewing oil all over the engine, he live in Warrenton, so I called a local dealer in Fairfax and thought it was a missing washer around the dip stick, the dealer told my that from the sound of what I described it was a bad PVC box and quite involved to change; I asked if they knew anyone in that area the would recommend and they highly recommended Charles Mullin, and they were right he gave me a reasonable price and had it fixed the next day!

  • *****

    Pleasure to work with. Took my car in for some preventative maintenance. Charlie was great at answering all of my questions and showing me the old parts so I knew what was wrong and why it needed fixing. Support your local independent shop!

    If you have a Volvo and fear the repairman weep no more! Charlie Mullin will revive your ailing vehicle whatever the problem, and give good service and a fair price! I have been bringing my two aging Volvos to Charlie for several years now and they are both running great. My cross country wagon has 215,000 miles and is a winter brute for tackling the snows of West Virginia flawlessly. My S60 is a nice cruising car and I am finicky about handling, tires, etc. but under Charlie's care it just feels like new at 175,000 miles. I don't know how they sell new ones with guys like Charlie keeping the old ones running so well!

    Mr. Mullins kept my 02 Volvo running where other shops where scratching their heads. He's truly a professional and knows his trade.

    If your Volvo has a problem, this is where you want to take it. If your vintage Volvo has a problem, this is where you need to take it.

    We will never take our family cars anywhere again! So great to see that there are actually HONEST mechanics out there

    Mullins Auto Care is fantastic, they are run by a great family that does quality work, in a timely, affordable, and flexible manner. Has been our family auto shop for nearly two decades and is really the best there is. Highly recommend.

    Love Mullins Auto. If you want a fast reliable honest mechanic this is your place!

    Awesome little shop!
    Charlie is a wonderful mechanic who does't sell you anything you don't need. Truly refreshing in this day and age. Don't be scared off by the small shop...good things come in small packages. Do yourself and your wallet a favor and call him when you need your car serviced.

  • *****

    Great place great people honest work!

    Just the best top to bottom excellent service!!!!!

    Charles Mullins is completely honest, mechanically talented, and dedicated to doing a perfect job. I've gone to him for almost thirty years and have complete confidence that my Volvo is in the best road-ready condition possible. I also know from experience that I can tell him to do what is necessary and he will do just that. Before I started going to him, I was about to sell my Volvo because I'd had such bad experiences with the dealer -- problems not fixed and unneeded work done. Not only does he do a great job, but he charges reasonable prices. With no hassle ever, he can make your Volvo almost eternal.

    Trusted Mechanic
    I have been taking my 1994 850 to Mullins since I moved into the area 6 years ago, he has replaced the main seal and clutch, brakes & rotors, ignition coil, and a couple of other item. He is one of the few mechanics I can truly say I trust, he is straight forward, no nonsense, dont be scared off by the size of his garage. He knows what he is doing.

    Great Service
    After having my car serviced by a local tire chain for a year I found Mullin's because my 2 year old Volvo was screeching. They immediately determined that I was out of transmission fluid and topped it off without a second thought. I followed up with a much needed lube and sevice and now will not go anywhere else. The shop is small but the service is beyond bounds and I feel comfortable that I am getting the services that I am paying for.

  • *****

    outstanding
    I've been taking my XC90 to Mullins for 2 years now and the service has been excellent. He even dismantled my misbehaving sunroof, which isn't the easiest job in the world. Very reasonable prices, very helpful mechanic - even game me a referral for another garage to get my jeep fixed (something a little out of his bailiwick). Gotta love an honest mechanic.

    Charlie Mullins has kept my Volvo V70 R running great for years. He is honest, pleasant and talented. My car has more than 225,000 miles on it, I drive it across the country twice a year as well as all around the Northern VA DC area. For way less than I would pay a dealer, my car gets checked and serviced. I am never pressured to pay for things it doesn't need, when a used part would be just as good as a new one, Charlie finds me a used part. I have tried the dealership and I have tried other foreign auto "specialists," and invariably those places charge too much, do unnecessary work and do it shabbily. I take both my cars to Charlie now and I have never been anything less than 100% satisfied.
