Consumer Comments for Far East Motors

Consumer from SILVER SPRING, MD
Jan 30, 2026

I brought my 2011 Nissan here to get a new Mass Air Flow Sensor. My mechanic didn't have the tools to calibrate it and had suggested taking it to the dealer. Not only did they want $400 more than the dealer, but found $7,000 of repairs they said I needed! My mechanic laughed out loud at the list. I would not trust them for anything.

Consumer from WASHINGTON, DC

Highly recommend Far East Motors. I have been coming to the shop for nearly 20 years. The staff is professional, knowledgeable and most friendly. They tell you the prices up front, what I can delay for a bit, and communicate any changes. Paul and his staff are top notch. Walkable to the Metro but they will drop people off if they prefer.
