They charged me $115 for an oil change. I used to pay $65 in LA where I just moved from. I tried to ask why it was so expensive and he blamed it on high oil prices. I called 3 nearby mechanics who quoted me $50-$80. My guess is they saw my California plates and decided to rip me off. They also said it would take an hour and a half and took 4.5 hours. I would absolutely not recommend this place.

Their prices were a little on the high side, but not totally unreasonable, and I think they might have thrown in new wiper blades as well (or maybe they just fixed my old ones; in any case they work way better now).

I had been a loyal customer for 11 years. Until recently, they provided consistently…read moreabove-and-beyond excellent service and always gave fair and honest accessments for all my car repairs needed on a mini cooper and mini countryman. When the countryman died of engine failure at over 110k miles, in June I purchased another older mini cooper. This is when our relationship changed. It was burning oil at an alarming rate, smoke was coming out of the exhaust, almost always after idling for a lengthy time and sometimes upon starting the car. I had it accessed by Murrysville Auto and a part replaced with the stipulation being that might and might not resolve the issue pointing to possible engine issues. Fair enough. I was glad to have honest information to make the decision. When it still exhibited smoke from the exhaust, I immediately made another appointment to have it reaccessed. This time, instead of Cody (owner) who always had relayed the information to me in the past, his mother, Jerrie (President) gave me info stating no further repairs were needed or recommended, that it was burning oil and the solution offered was for me to simply check the oil EVERY DAY. At this point, I questioned outloud to Jerrie in person if they were trying to tell me they didn't want my business any longer. She assured me that was not the case. We then talked and, with Cody in the conversation, as well, a rebuilt engine was found with a cost of installation being 15k. I agreed, thinking a total engine replacement would fix the issues. Before I could pay, I needed to transfer funds for next business day. In the meantime, a new light came on -- the engine reduced power light. This was a new symptom and my research showed it might mean more than an engine alone. I could not, with this new info, afford to pay 15k and not have a total solution so canceled the order for the engine. Now, Murrysville Auto lets me know the seller of the engine was charging a restock fee of 1600. This restock fee was not divulged to me on my paperwork which is unlawful and non-binding in PA. To just be done with the transaction and move on, I agreed to pay 1600. But then, Cody tells me it is actually more than 1600. I stand by the 1600 relayed to me and pay that. Soooo, bottom line I stand by my intuition that Murrysville Auto wanted to sever business relations with me, though I had been a long-time loyal customer and always paid my repairs in full, on the spot, with no questions on pricing or suggested repairs until this car purchased in June, less than 3 months and less than 1500 miles ago. By having Jerrie and not Cody give me the latest non-repair advice of simply checking oil EVERY.SINGLE.DAY which is ludicrous to charging and not divulging a restock fee (first, I would never back out of a contract except I had new vital info), it seems obvious that I will not be continuing my service with them for this car or any other. I have no idea what changed to come to their final ways of doing business, but it is what it is. They are not the same trusted business that I came to trust and rely on all these years.

I first brought my car to Murrysville Auto Clinic (MAC) so long ago that I honestly can't remember…read morethe exact year--it's been at least 15 years. What I do remember, however, is that from that very first experience onward, they have always treated me with honesty, respect, and fairness. That kind of consistency is rare, and it's the reason I've remained a loyal customer ever since. Over the years, I've recommended MAC to colleagues, friends, and even my own family members, including my father. A couple of them mentioned that they thought MAC might be "a bit too pricey," but I've always felt that was an unfair assessment. In my experience, their pricing is not only reasonable but also reflects the quality of their work and the integrity of their service. When you're dealing with something as important as your vehicle, "cheap" is not the standard you should be aiming for--fairness and trustworthiness are. And that's exactly what MAC delivers. One of the things that sets MAC apart is how often they've gone above and beyond for me. On several occasions, they've helped me out without hesitation and without expecting anything in return. That kind of generosity and customer-first attitude is almost unheard of in the auto repair industry. To me, that's worth far more than saving a few dollars at a shop that might cut corners or treat customers like transactions instead of people. My car is now 22 years old and has plenty of miles on it, yet it still runs like new. That's not luck--it's the direct result of the care and expertise of the team at MAC. They've kept my vehicle reliable and safe far beyond what most people would expect from a car of its age. That kind of outcome doesn't happen without skilled, dedicated mechanics who take pride in their work. What I value most about MAC is that they've earned my trust. In an industry where it's notoriously difficult to find honest and competent mechanics, I know I can rely on them to give me straightforward advice, do the job right, and treat me fairly every single time. Their loyalty to their customers is unwavering, and that's why my loyalty to them has never wavered either. In short, MAC is more than just an auto repair shop--they're a team of professionals who genuinely care about their customers and their community. They've earned my respect, my gratitude, and my continued business. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone who values honesty, fairness, and quality in auto care.

The bumper was duct taped on to prevent it from falling off, and our inspection was due this month. The trucking company has been ignoring all attempts to reach them. I was told to swing by the day before to talk to Justin, the service foreman, to determine if anything can be done as a stopgap until repairs can be made. Justin came up with a game plan, but he knew he'd be off the when I brought the car in, so he talked to Robert and some other guys who were on that day about the game plan. They agreed that bolting the bumper to the frame would keep it secure and follow inspection requirements. When I showed up to get the work done, Noah was looped into the plan, and the 3 of those guys literally saved my sanity and ability for my daughter and me to get to work while our insurance company now battles with the trucking company. Robert was the guy who made the repair that allowed them to proceed with the inspection. After 11 days of getting ignored and being given the run around by Western Express trucking, I seriously could have hugged all 3 of them and when they lent a hand. My husband and I have always had excellent service from your dealership, but these 3 men went above and beyond yesterday at a time of great need, and I can't thank them enough.

If they ever contact me, I'll update with what they were willing to do or make it right. If they can convince me of some integrity I might even delete the review. Edit: they eventually did call back. My wife took the car in to address the safety issues they failed to either own or remedy. Within 1 mile of leaving the service department, my wife driving noticed the hood of the car undulating at 40mph. She pulled over and discovered the hood only secondary latched and not closed all the way. After calling to report this, their rep called u and said "they were never under the hood" so if you you want a picture of what dealing with them will look like, this is it. I'm done with them.

Zovko Bros is a family-owned business that performs state inspections and general repairs.

I've gone there for my inspections for the past several years and for some major and minor repair work as well. Each and every time I could not have been happier with the results. I LOVE these guys. They are super nice and respectful, not intimidating, fair, and fast. They do GREAT WORK and they will not charge you and arm and a leg to do it. Because they are located at the corner of 25th and Carson, you can kill time at the nearby South Side Works. So shop, eat, watch a movie - and one of the guys will call you on your cell when your car is ready. Write them a check and drive off into the sunset with your motor purrin'.
