Auto repair service near Aston, PA

I purchased a minivan from them last April. They told me the van was running great with no issues at all. The van then within days of buying it had horrible issues. I got my mechanic to look at it and it found out that it had a severely bad transmission among other issues. I called the week right after I got it and they told me they'd get back to me and have a look at it and wouldn't sell me a bad car. They never got back to me and they ignored my phone calls ever since and hang up when I try to call from other numbers. I had to junk the van because it broke down and tranny went bad when I hadn't even had it one month. Just horrible situation to be put in due to dishonesty.

Terrible service, overpriced. Up charge for parts and at least $100 more for labor than other places in the area. Avoid at all costs

Went here to have have minor work done on my car. The following day, on my way to work, my car overheated which has never happened. Took the car back to the repair shop and had a hole in the radiator and needed a whole new one. Ironic? I think not. The owner Ed was rude and not customer friendly. I took the car to a different repair shop and they said the holes looked as though someone poked the with a screwdriver! Please do not take you car there!

Stopped in to check out a 2004 Chevy Silverado 2500hd 6.0L crew cab truck on a monday. Truck had rust which was typical of this Chevy truck,( rusted out rockers and driverside cab corner) started it up found a broken ground wire under the hood area, oil leaking all over engine, a metal tinging sound from under the hood and the dash reading needs oil changed. Then as the Car saleswoman's husband showed up he asked how I liked it. I told him its not bad but then I noticed the check engine light on and he saw it too. I told him I had a OTC scanner and asked if I could hook it up he said no problem. After running a key on engine off scan there was 14 codes. 12 were in history for various things some bad some not so bad and then a hard Knock sensor pending and a bank 2 knock sensor confirmed. For those that don't know you have to pull off the entire upper intake manifold and all associated wiring and sensors to replace those. I said well it a little more than I wanted to get into right now with winter coming and I don't have a garage. He said he understands and said look I really need to get at least $3500 so if you know someone who might be interested tell them 3700 and I'll throw you a few bucks or if you change your mind I'll sell it to you for $3500. I mulled it over till Wednesday, went back to test drive truck to check trans out and decided to buy it Thursday for the $3500 i showed up at 2:15 and sales lady had to pick her daughter up by 2;30 so they were closing and I didn't want to hold her up. NOW here is where it gets interesting: so the wife who works there ( sales lady) says when will you be here I said between 11-12 and asked if she could tell me the full price and explained that her husband said he'd tell her to sell it to me for $3500 if I came back because he was going out of town, well he didn't. She said price was $5295 and I explained what her husband had said. She said well he won't be back till next week and I could try to call him if I wanted to. I got a hold of his brother who apparently owns the car lot and told him what was going on and to have his brother ( the husband ) get in touch with either me or his wife to clear this up and stand by his word. Well in between that the wife texted saying she couldn't sell it to me for that price because she had other people calling offering full price. I said well I'll have to call her husband and we will go from there. Then she offered it to me for $4500, even though people are offering you full price?? I said I'll wait to her from husband and see if he stands by his word. Then after a few minutes she says and I quote: "My Husband and I work here. I didn't know my husband had a deal with you. My brothers Own the lot and they said $4000 is the bottom, the day you talked to my husband they needed the money to buy another vehicle. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. Let me know what you think." What I think is bait and switch. Lie,cheat,and steal. Don't have people on the lot offer deals that you aren't willing to stand behind 100% I would avoid doing business with them if I were you over priced for the junk they offer.

Quoted for tire mounting then, when got hold of car, called to see if we wanted tires balanced for an extra $50. Who mounts tires without getting them balanced. Scumbags.
