Barney’s Auto was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. I was originally quoted $5,500 by a dealership for the repair. Barney’s quoted me $3,500, and after getting into the job, they realized they didn’t need to use all the parts. They returned the unused parts and ended up charging me only $1,400.
That level of honesty and integrity is rare. They could have easily charged the full amount, but they didn’t. Extremely trustworthy, transparent, and professional. I highly recommend Barney’s Auto to anyone looking for honest work at a fair price.

This was a bad week to have no heat / no defrost. Had my vehicle towed to Barney’s on Tuesday and they repaired my water pump that the dealer just replaced in October. Needless to say I won’t be back at that dealer and Barney’s is now my preferred shop!
When I picked her up, it took very little time for the heat to kick on and the defrost works great!
Many thanks to Chris and the team at Barney’s!

Had some issues with off and on vibration on a truck with 175k miles I recently acquired. Took it to Barney's auto instead of a Ford dealership and it paid off. I wasn't given any BS about unnecessary repairs, but I did get straightforward, accurate, and fast repairs. There was an issue with my 4 wheel drive where the truck was trying to go from 2 wheel to 4 wheel drive while driving which could potentially cause major damage. The repair was affordable and done in a timely manner. I am new to the area but couldn't be more satisfied with my choice to take my truck to Barney's Auto from the work done to the truck, the explanation of the necessa...Had some issues with off and on vibration on a truck with 175k miles I recently acquired.

I am new to the area but couldn't be more satisfied with my choice to take my truck to Barney's Auto from the work done to the truck, the explanation of the necessary work, the price, and time taken to complete the work was all top notch. I highly recommend you bring your vehicle to their shop for any required maintenance on your automobile. Thanks again guys at Barney's, you've earned 1 more loyal customer and will be taking my truck here again should I have any more issues at it creeps towards 200k miles.

I had a problem with my van that Bowditch Ford had been working on for over two years, they never had a fix to fixing any problem I brought to them wasted money like crazy for nothing just getting a run around. Took a chance and went to Barney new too me but took the chance. Chris talked to me brought my van in they were friendly, much more professional than ford. They fit me in on Friday the loud noise for one was belts and pulley 6 months in Ford's shop couldn't figure it out. They also told me my rear differential has corroded oil that was black and another piece that when turning made a loud grinding groan sound another 7 times Ford says...I had a problem with my van that Bowditch Ford had been working on for over two years, they never had a fix to fixing any problem I brought to them wasted money like crazy for nothing just getting a run around.

They will have my business from now on. finally a place I can trust. Also said my check engine light is from the wrong cat attachment. These men are confident and know what they are doing. Thank guys

If you’re looking to get your car serviced or repaired in the Hampton/VA Beach area, look no further than Cory @ Barney’s Auto. Honest and trustworthy, he will make sure your car gets back on the road quickly. He went out of his way to fix a misfire on my Lexus LS430 on a Sunday, when they’re not even open. He made sure my car was running smoothly for the 4 hour drive back home. A+!
