Emissions testing service near Clinton, PA

While visiting Pittsburgh, I had to schedule an oil change and went to Baum Blvd Automotive on the strength of their service to my 2005 Honda Civic when I lived in Pittsburgh. It turned out that, over the course of a New England winter, my car had accumulated a couple of extra problems since work was last done, including a rusty oil pan and damaged rear wheel hubs. I want to note that Baum Blvd Automotive went out of their way to earn my trust on somewhat pricy repairs, offering to call my regular mechanic and seeking out ways to offer me discounts. When I got home and had a regularly scheduled tire swap, my mechanic noted that Baum Blvd Automotive had definitely identified problems I would not want to drive home on and they would have given me similar advice. My only note is that it took rather a long time for the parts to arrive. I was not in a hurry, however, and I did leave Pittsburgh on schedule and safely, thanks to Baum Blvd Automotive.

THUMBS DOWN! ZERO STARS!! It is a shame that one mean employee will forever affect how I view this business. There is a grassy lot across the street from this garage and there is NO signage to state who the lot belongs to. It doesn't say PRIVATE PROPERTY either. I was at a Halloween parade for my kindergartner at a school ALSO across the street. I parked in this grassy lot NOT BLOCKING ANYONE AT ALL and I had to leave the parade, move my car and miss seeing my son's first parade because of some awful woman threatening to tow parents that parked there. While I understand you do not block cars no matter where you park- I wasn't in anyone's way and parked perfectly legal. I had to have a confrontation with this woman and miss seeing my son in his parade. Way to show your support for the community- especially to parents coming to a school event. Here's an idea....GET SOME SIGNS PUT UP instead of harassing innocent parents that have no clue that it is your freaking lot. Really?

Used to live out that way and B & B had done auto work for me back then. Went there to have exhaust leak fixed. New guy in the shop. He quoted me a price and I agreed. About an hour later, I went down to the shop and two guys were welding underneath my car. I guess the new guy was having trouble getting a flex pipe welded on. To make a long story short. The flex pipe wasn't welded on very good and it leaked like everywhere. My car would not pass inspection because of the bad weld job. I will not go there again.

Car needed inspection & asked him to change the oil. The car did not need anything at all to pass inspection. Total charge for simple inspection & oil change - $83.48. Here is the breakdown of charges: Oil - 21.25 Oil filter 5.50 Sticker 5.00 Inspection 22.00 Labor 25.00 Tax 4.73 When I asked him why he charged over $50 for a service you can get anywhere else for $25 he said "that's because he changed all the oil - those other places don't change it all". Maybe because I'm female he thought I was stupid so I told him I knew how to change oil & when you take out the plug & unscrew the filter the oil all comes out. Then he just stood there grinning, but still no offer to refund part of the charge. If you want ripped off this is the place to go.
