by 2023 VOLKSWAGEN TAOS SE Owner on 05/20/2026Verified Service
It can be so hard to find a trustworthy and reliable auto shop. Cardinal Shell IS that shop. The staff is polite and responsive from the moment you arrive. The service techs that worked on my car answered my questions clearly and respectfully and explained everything and had me back on the road in a timely fashion.

Cardinal Plaza Shell replaced both rear brake rotors and pads on a BMW X3 under warranty. Work was completed the day of the appointment. We moved to Virginia in 1985 and every car we have had since then has been serviced at Cardinal Plaza Shell. Thanks to Jon!

Andy was excellent in scheduling oil change appointments for two vehicles. Both appointments were punctual. Asked that tire pressures be checked because my tire pressure alarm was signaling on the Ford Escape but It didn't get done, So I took care of it myself at another gas station on my way home. Brandon apologized when I returned with the second vehicle to be serviced.

Not only did the mechanic do a good job changing the oil, but he also checked the battery and the tires. I got a complete update on the status of the battery and the tires. After completing the service, he parked the car in a great spot so that I could get to it easily.
by 2019 TOYOTA TACOMA DBL CAB/SR/SR5/TRD Owner on 04/04/2026Verified Service
Would've loved to not have to pay as much, at least been offered a discount, but overall the service was great and was performed in a timely manner. The biggest compliment I can give is that I trust them with my truck. I actually stopped going to the dealership for regular maintenance and repairs.
by 2019 AUDI A6 PREMIUM PLUS Owner on 01/15/2026Verified Service
Thought I lost air pressure in one tire, attempted to add air at the self service pump but by the time I got there, the tire was completely empty. I stopped into the office and they were able to get right to me. Turned out I had a nail in it, they were able to plug it and I was on my way.

I needed an emissions inspection done and the person on the phone informed me accurately about the schedule around the holidays, how many cars in line were at that time so I can decide when to bring my car in. This lead to minimal wait time and smooth checkout to keep my busy schedule on track.
by 2015 SUBARU FORESTER 2.5I PREMIUM Owner on 12/03/2025Verified Service
I got a flat tire a block from their shop 10 minutes before closing on Saturday night. Theo didn't hesitate to assist and throw my spare tire on. I brought the car back over the weekend and received a loaner. The guys could not have been more helpful or accommodating.

I like that I got exactly the service that I have come to expect over the 30-odd years that we've been customers! My car died completely in a parking lot in Kingstown and I had it towed to CP Shell because I trust them more than the dealership. I also know that if the problem was under warranty that they would advise me to take it to the dealership. Great service, great station, consistent standards.
by 2015 LEXUS RX 350 BASE/350 F SPORT Owner on 08/24/2025Verified Service
Great service for brakes, however the next morning a TPMS battery went dead so it was likely connected to the work done the day before. The TPMS had never alerted once prior to that. Cardinal said it was a coincidence so I had to accept forgo the extra $170 to fix it. Altogether Cardinal has been our go-to pkace as they have always treated us and vehicles with care.
by 2019 TOYOTA TACOMA DBL CAB/SR/SR5/TRD Owner on 08/23/2025Verified Service
I liked that the pricing was fair and no additional charges were added to the estimate. Top quality work was performed and I highly recommend this location for all of your repair services. I'll be bringing in my wife's car for brake pads and my daughter's car for an oil change.
by 2013 INFINITI G37 Owner on 06/04/2025Verified Service
Great customer service. I had an appointment. They were expecting me. They welcomed me and immediately took my car in to the service area. I waited while my car had the oil and filter changed. They gave me an estimated completion time. The car was finished and back to me within their estimated completion time. Very easy.
by 2001 TOYOTA CAMRY LE/XLE Owner on 06/01/2025Verified Service
I very much like this shop, but this time I was frustrated by their telling me they would repair an item before I brought it in, and afterwards telling me they wouldn't repair it. They also agreed to conduct a safety and emissions inspection when I brought the car in, but when they released it said they decided not to do those.
by 2018 BMW X3 XDRIVEM40I Owner on 05/07/2026Verified Service
Routine service on a 2018 BMW X3 with about 101,000 miles. Oil change and replace air filter and cabin air filter. Every car I've had over the last forty-six years has been serviced at Cardinal Plaza Shell.
by 2025 SUBARU FORESTER TOURING Owner on 05/01/2026Verified Service
My car was ready exactly when they said it would be. They did a great job and everyone was very helpful and pleasant to deal with.
by 2015 TOYOTA RAV4 XLE Owner on 04/16/2026Verified Service
Quick service, respectful personnel - a great visit. They did the work they had recommended and told me about one small service they recommended (tire rotation when I had my next oil change) - did not try to push more work at thus time.
by 2019 CADILLAC ESCALADE PREMIUM LUXURY Owner on 04/09/2026Verified Service
Investigated and Fixed all the problems. Even found I didn't need a repair I was led to believe was needed. Thoroughly satisfied.
by 2017 LINCOLN MKX PREMIERE Owner on 03/26/2026Verified Service
They are very professional and thorough and friendly. They take the time to explain things and seem to genuinely care about their customers and their vehicles.
by 2019 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID/XLE Owner on 03/24/2026Verified Service
Competently replaced oil, oil filter and rotated tires without any dealer chicanery. I trust the honesty of Cardinal Plaza Shell staff.
by 2019 FORD FUSION S Owner on 03/02/2026Verified Service
He noticed that I use an assistive device to aid in walking and put the car at the door after the test.
