Consumer Comments for Rising Sun Motors

Consumer from SILVER SPRING, MD
Nov 01, 2025

The last two times Rising Sun repaired my car I had to take it back because something was not working properly. In the last repair I was told that the tire pressure indicator had been repaired and the fact that the warning light was still on was because another one had gone bad. Their representative said the mechanic told him the another tire pressure indicator was going bad but no mention of this was made on the repair receipt I received.

Consumer from COLLEGE PARK, MD

Rising Sun has become very expensive, and their front-of-the-business staff are not particularly friendly. I use them because they are local but can no longer give them a great recommendation, as I did in the past.

Consumer from UPPER MARLBORO, MD

A quality shop, under new management, seems to be keeping up the expectations. Not the cheapest, but fair and I feel I get my money's worth.
