For more than 40 years, Mitch Carr's Auto Service has built its reputation around one thing: providing knowledgeable, dependable automotive care for Mercedes-Benz owners. Established in 1986, our independent shop in Kensington, MD, brings decades of hands-on experience to Mercedes-Benz maintenance, diagnostics, and repair. With Mercedes-Benz representing approximately 95 percent of our work, our team understands the vehicles we service and the details that matter when it comes to keeping them performing at their best.

Our approach is different from a general repair shop. Mercedes-Benz vehicles combine sophisticated engineering, advanced technology, and carefully designed systems that require specialized knowledge. Whether your vehicle needs routine maintenance, a diagnostic evaluation, brake work, suspension service, or a more involved repair, Mitch Carr's Auto Service provides expert attention with the goal of keeping your Mercedes-Benz safe, reliable, and enjoyable to drive.

Owning a Mercedes-Benz should be an enjoyable experience, and proper maintenance plays an important role in protecting that experience. Regular service can help identify developing problems before they become larger repairs while keeping essential systems operating properly.

At Mitch Carr's Auto Service, we work with Mercedes-Benz owners throughout Kensington and the surrounding Washington, D.C. metro area. From newer vehicles to classic Mercedes-Benz models, we bring a careful, knowledgeable approach to every service appointment.

Our Mercedes-Benz services include:

Choosing an independent Mercedes-Benz specialist gives owners an alternative to relying exclusively on a dealership for maintenance and repairs. At Mitch Carr's Auto Service, our experience has been built over decades of working with Mercedes-Benz vehicles and understanding the needs of their owners.

Our founder, Mitch Carr, established the business in 1986. More than four decades later, that foundation of specialized service remains at the heart of the shop. In 2026, the business celebrates its 40th anniversary, marking an important milestone in a history dedicated to automotive service.

That experience also extends to classic Mercedes-Benz vehicles. These vehicles often require a different perspective than newer models, and classic Mercedes owners can benefit from working with a shop that appreciates the unique characteristics of older Mercedes-Benz engineering.

Modern Mercedes-Benz vehicles rely on complex electronic and mechanical systems, making accurate diagnostics an important part of quality repair. Warning lights, unusual noises, changes in performance, or unexpected driving behavior can all be signs that a vehicle needs professional attention.

Our diagnostic and maintenance services are designed to help Mercedes-Benz owners understand what is happening with their vehicle and determine the appropriate next step. Whether you are dealing with a check engine light, an AIRMATIC suspension concern, electrical trouble, transmission symptoms, or a routine maintenance interval, our team can help identify the issue and provide knowledgeable service.

Preventive maintenance is equally important. Staying current with recommended service can help protect your investment and provide greater confidence behind the wheel.
