“Great service by the team and the manager Tim, but if I were to leave a real review to get the owner’s attention, it would be 1 star. The franchise owner “PREMIUM VELOCITY AUTO LLC” really needs to change their tire sourcing contract, especially when there are four tire shops a stone’s throw from this JL location. No fault to the team here (so I didn’t deduct any stars) but FOR THE OWNER: an expected 1-2hr oil change & state inspection service turned into an almost 6hr visit as we waited over 4.5hrs for my new tires to be delivered (though the third party had “guaranteed” under 2hrs, which means nothing). I only came here because it’s one of the few shops in the area where a state inspection doesn’t require you to drop your car off and “come back later” so I thought this would be a quicker visit. When tires are one of the main services you advertise all over the building, you should be able to provide them “in a jiffy”. (I couldn’t leave because my old tires failed inspection, otherwise I 10000% would have bought my tires from someone else and gotten my entire day back.) I really appreciated Tim’s sympathy, repeat follow-up with the third party, and hustle once the tires finally arrived. I know it was completely out of his control, but other customers would not be nearly as understanding as I am (sitting here 7 months pregnant by the way) and I really regret giving business to the third party tire provider.”
“We took our older Mini Cooper for an oil change, and one of the existing parts failed, having nothing to do with the oil change. They fixed it in 24 hours, and the price was great. It was a very good experience.”
“Big G is my go to place for all my automotive questions and service. I trust their advice .I have been dealing with Robert for years and wouldn’t go anywhere else. Both Robert and Brandon treat their customers with the utmost respect. Call Big G for your next automotive appointment. You won’t be disappointed!!!”
“Fast, friendly service. The store manager actively assists, doesn't just sit back. Good value for the money. I've been coming here for years, and I'll keep coming back.”
“These guys are awesome, everyone I've encountered has been very friendly and easy to coordinate with. They handle our fleet of trucks and our personal vehicals. I can't say enough good thing about them. The value and convenience is fantastic. Highly reccomend!”
“I’ve had a really hard time finding a mechanic I trust, and I’m so glad I found B & R Starters. They really care about their customers, are honest, and charge fair prices. More than once, I’ve taken my car in, and they’ve gone the extra mile—whether it was staying late to finish a repair or giving me a heads-up on upcoming maintenance. I highly recommend them!”
“Great honest, reliable service!!
I took my car to get the oil changed , tires rotated and to get the brakes checked, it was all completed in a timely manner.
The brakes were still good.
The owner is very nice as well as the service department employees. They are knowledgeable and efficient! I’m a repeat customer and would recommend this business to everyone!”

“I was at Flynn tire shop they found is a nail in my front tire and they plugged it for me and didn’t charge anything and it was very quick as it’s first come first serve. I’m so happy with their honesty. It really means a lot! Thank you!”
“Have been using Carnegie Radiator since a AAA towing company recommended them years ago. Fair pricing, upfront communication, very accommodating, and excellent staff. We love working with them and have trust in what they say regarding what is needed and what to keep an eye on. Highly recommended!”
“I relocated to Pitt from NY where I have an uncle in the auto body business. Sent him a picture of Hamlin's work. He was impressed. I, as well, am impressed with their professionalism and reasonable rates. Bravo!”
“I had a flat tire on the side of the road recently, Naiel and his family/friends stopped to help me. They were incredibly kind and professional — went out of their way to make sure I was safe and got my spare tire on quickly. Even though I ended up getting my tire repaired somewhere closer to home, I was really impressed by their generosity and willingness to help a stranger. If the rest of the team is anything like the person I met, I’d absolutely recommend this shop to anyone looking for honest, helpful service.”
“Mike diagnosed the causes of my oil leaks, and the repairs were done in two days… pretty fast for all the work involved. And the estimate was very reasonable! Recommended!”
“Excellent repair shop. Had some damage to the right front suspension. The team at Forbes Field Garage diagnosed the problem and got the repairs done quickly!! Appreciate hard working people. Highly recommend taking your car, truck or SUV to their shop to get your vehicle running properly!”
“My husband and I recently relocated to Pittsburgh and I needed to have my car inspected and complete an emissions test to have it registered. Being that my car is older, I wanted to find a reputable place that wouldn’t nickel-and-dime me over unnecessary repairs as I don’t drive it as often anymore. Homer’s seemed to always be the place that was most recommended whether on Google, Reddit, etc., so I took a chance and dropped it off. J. went above and beyond to help us get things taken care of and on the road and didn’t create unnecessary issues for us to pay to fix. He was kind, compassionate, and helpful— exactly as all the reviews I read had stated. This is a family-owned business, which is clear when you become a customer, because they treat you like family. My husband and I feel so grateful to have this task taken care of and a new mechanic/body shop here in Pittsburgh. Thank you so much!”
“This place is great! Very fast service, I just walked in and they fixed my tire right away. And the price was way better than reasonable. My new favorite car service place.”
“I can't say enough good things about Kaercher. We've been taking our cars here for a couple of years now and they are honest, have great attention to detail, and excellent customer service. You won't find a better, more trust-worthy mechanic in the Pittsburgh area.”
“I love Ryan Automotive. I have been taking my cars there for years. They are easy to schedule with, quick to get the job done, and always fairly priced. Can’t reccomend enough !!”

“Excellent all around. I've mainly worked with Kris, not sure if anyone else works here, but Kris reminds me of a doctor that has good bedside manor. He listens and is very methodical in his approach. Very reasonable prices too. Hard to beat.”

“My tire blew out on Brownsville Rd, and Pinnacle got me in immediately. The guy at the counter was so calm and friendly, it totally took the stress out of my morning. Walked out feeling relieved and ready for my day.”
“Doing the recent oil change and annual inspection for our 2012 Ford Fusion, Jim ran into an unforeseen problem with the oil pan. He suggested a creative solution which avoided a very expensive repair and will enable us to use the car for another year. Jim and his team are simply the best!”
“Would be 5 stars…Everything was good and fast, except for the fact that they did not vacuum the interior of my car. I looked on the website before coming to see if vacuuming was part of an oil change service and it was listed. I also made sure the floors were clear before I got out of my car only to be disappointed upon returning to my car. Is this not something Jiffy Lube does anymore?”
“I had the absolute pleasure to stop by this store today. I was helped by James the manager and jojo who completed the oil change. They were AMAZING. Checked out everything, made us laugh and made the whole experience seamless and painless. Will absolutely be coming back. I’m coming from out of state and always am nervous going somewhere new but this was the absolute best experience. Thank you gentlemen!”
“Adam helped my daughter out of a jamb
She is in school in Pittsburgh and I am not in the area.
Very respectful and extremely helpful. I would highly recommend
Thank you !”

“First time going today very professional, fast and kind I recommend them 100% They showed me things filters I didn’t know about Al hamdu Lillah ..GREAT WORK!!!”
“I moved to the South Hills from a large city 4 years ago and always had difficulty finding a knowledgeable/trustworthy/responsive/fair priced auto shop my entire life. It has been such a breath of fresh air finding that it exists at P & W. Kathy always answers the phone and has been great at fitting us in even when we are in a pinch. Thanks for all the hard work!”
“I’ve been going to Waterfront Auto Complex for window tinting since I first started driving, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my vehicles. The quality of work is top-notch every single time. What sets them apart is that they use a precision machine to custom cut the tint specifically for your vehicle, no guesswork or cutting by hand. It’s a clean, professional finish that lasts. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality tinting work!”
“This garage has been my go-to for a couple of years now, and this review is extremely overdue. The mechanics and staff at Baum Blvd Auto are kind, communicative, caring, and THOROUGH with their work. They never pressure you or upsell you, but they are clear about when they discover future issues with your vehicle. They are knowledgeable and quick to share that insight so you can understand what's going on with your car. I used to religiously take my car to the dealership, but I've found that this business is full of caring and experienced staff members who want tue very best for their clients and the safety of the vehicles they service.”
“I started coming here after receiving a very questionable quote for work needed on my VW Tiguan at a local dealership. If you want honest, quality work- come here! Bob ( the owner) looks for ways to extend your cars life rather than having to replace. He is very knowledgeable and skilled. I have a VW that had an oil consumption problem and was needing to add 1 qt every 300 miles. Bob came up with a solution that likely saved my engine and my wallet.
I’m happy to say- it’s at 2,000 miles and no oil added so far which exceeded expectations. I’m so thankful to have found this place. - Diane”
“What a great first experience! I needed work done on my car and called around a dozen of places to see who could help me as quickly as possible. Everyone I spoke to tried to sell me more than I needed without even seeing the car! Then I called here! They were so kind and honest from the very beginning. Never tried to sell me anything I didn’t need and got me done the next day! I am so happy to have found them and will not be taking my car anywhere else from now on! Thank you guys! Finding an honest mechanic and shop is not easy!”
