Emissions testing service near Furlong, PA

I have been going here since about 1962 when John and his brothers learned to repair cars from their father. He was very demanding and expected perfection from them. John learned well and always manages to fix my old cars in a proficient and timely manner. He has continued to learn and keep up with new technologies. Like his father he clearly explains what needs to be done and why. He often finds inovative ways to repair my old cars. For example a rear tail light on my 1989 station wagon just needed replacement. Because my tail gate no longer goes down, bolts to hold it in place could only be accessed from the out side by removing paneling. Instead he gained access through a storage compartment. Although I now live in West Chester I continue to go to Shall Martin Garage because of their superior service.

A great shop. The mechanics are honest and very knowledgable. I've been going to their garage for years, and they have always diagnosed my car problems correctly. Nelson, the owner, is a great person. He's always easy to talk to and is very kind to his customers. The prices at Austin's are good. This is the best shop in Bethlehem.

Terrible customer service. Sat in waiting room while old guy treated a customer incredibly rudely. Was waiting while they were installing my tires. Felt really bad for the customer. Tire guy behind desk refused to acknowledge appointment customer had. Think the old guy should retire. Appears to be overwhelmed by the phone ringing and customers standing in line waiting to be acknowledged. I was disgusted by his behavior!

I had a very rude experience with Russ the owner. Charged for repairs that were never done to my car. Returned several time for follow ups to the same problems only to receive an annoyed answers from him and no further actions on their part. STAY AWAY AT ALL COST!!!
