I got a recommendation from a professor of mine, who has been going to Wayne for years, and now I've been using Wayne for 3-4 years. He's not always the cheapest, but I have found Wayne to be reliable and trustworthy. I have an old Mazda (1992) and so far he's helped keep it running. The garage is also easy to get there by trolley (I think #34?), so you don't need to get a ride back when dropping off your car.

I have gone to Wayne for several years now, and I have found him to be reliable and trustworthy. I have an older car so it needs work every once in awhile, and I'll always take it to him. When you drop your car off, you have to park it on the street, and that's back where it goes before you pick it up. If only he was open on the weekends (at least Sat)!
Edit: I recently had to have my car towed because the clutch didn't work at all. I was afraid that the whole clutch would have to be replace, something I couldn't afford, but after looking at it, Wayne said only one part needed to be fixed, costing far less than I feared. Thanks Wayne!
PROS: Reliable
CONS: No weekend hours

Vernas is a great garage to take you car for the small dings and odd paint jobs which are not worth taking your car to the dealer. I als o have had side view mirrors and windshields repaired out here. You dont pay the high mark up that you would pay a dealer.

Ok, so I know that everyone always knocks dealership service departments but this one is truly heinous. They tried to get me to pre-authorize a $99 diagnostic fee which I have never ever been charged at any other Kia dealership. I even called my usual dealer (Gateway in Warrington... they are fabulous!!!) and he informed me that no- diagnostic fees are not unheard of (they charge a $49 one) but they should not be charged to a car that is still covered under warranty!!!! That is why I got a Kia- for the 10yr, 100,000 mile warranty. I hightailed it out of there and will never return. Avoid this place like the plague. I really wish that I could give 0 stars to this place.
I love Gateway, I've heard great things about Ryan in Springfield, the few times I went to Cherry Hill they were nice as well. Go anywhere but Value.
Pros: did not hang around long enough to find any
Cons: Untrustworthy

My car was acting crazy. I definitely needed a mechanic. I was really worried because i thought i was going to have to spend a fortune. Come to find out I needed a new radiator and something was wrong with my engine as well. I gave in and came out the pocket and let them fix it. It cost be under 400 dollars and my car worked great. Ty is super friendly and fair. You will not get taken advantage of here.

Total tire auto center was a lifesave. I was going to an appointment and had a flat right next to them. They fixed my tire in matter of minutes and had me on the road. The cost was also very cheap. very friendly and cheerfull bunch. i plan to take my car in to them to get my tires rotated also.

So Tony may not be the cheapest mechanic, but he's a good one. I don't think you'll ever meet any mechanic that is as ORGANIZED as Tony! I was impressed at how neat the shop looked....can you imagine how meticulous he would be with a car?
(Along with the printed warranty he gives, was a print out of practical ways to take care of the transmission!)
I had my transmission rebuild from him 3 years ago, based on a recommendation of a mechanic friend, and has had no complaints.

When my car was leaking water and the air conditioning was not working, I did some research so that I would have some idea of the work involved as well as the cost. After calling several places and getting different answers and pricing was too high, I found Tom Remick's Auto Repair right here in Judy's Book. They were friendly, quick, to the point and got the job done right! I am a loyal customer to Tom Remick's Auto Repair.

I had my '09 Chevy Colorado tinted last week by Neil. I called to make and appointment on a Saturday morning and he had a cancellation, so I was able to get it get that afternoon!
Neil is a great guy and does quality work. He even installed some 3M clear bra for me at no charge. I actually had a good time chating with him in the shop while he installed my tint.
I'm super fussy about my truck and Neil didn't disapoint me. I'm very please with his work and highly reccommed his tinter services to anyone that fussy like me.
Pros: Neil does quality work.
Cons: The parking lot was packed.
