Came here two separate times for service…read more For the first time, I just replaced my brakes and rotors and might have introduced air into my brake lines so instead of bleeding my brakes and changing the fluid, I decided I'd come here instead. The service advisor was Angelo. He made sure I got taken care of as quickly as possible and despite forgetting to bring in my wheel lock, he was able to get the tech to bleed my brakes. The tech also said my brakes are fine but Angelo got him to check it again and bleed it anyways to get rid of any air. My brakes felt instantly better. Unfortunately, the reservoir was completely overfilled when I checked it so I had to go buy a syringe to remove some of the fluid myself. I also saw some fluid near the brake booster so I had to monitor it for leaks for the next couple days. This wasn't exactly the experience I expected. The second time I came in, I spoke to Angelo about getting my tire/tire valve looked at due to a flat tire. It was an hour before closing and he wanted to help but couldn't since most of the techs went home. He told me to return in the AM and he would get me helped asap. I did so the next day and he got my tire looked at, got the valve replaced, and I was good to go. It was a pretty painless experience this time. Shout out to Angelo because I was really expecting poor service but he did the best he could for me. He always kept me in the loop for what was going on while my car was in the bay.

I've been going to Don's Auto for well over a decade and they've always treated me fairly, but this…read moreweek really reminded me why I keep coming back. My wife's car battery died unexpectedly and when I brought it in, Don didn't give me the runaround or try to sell me something I didn't need. He actually offered to refund me for the battery even though it had been installed months ago. That kind of honesty is rare. It's a family-run shop with people who are straightforward, fair, and genuinely trying to help their customers. If you're looking for a trustworthy mechanic in the area, Don's Auto is the place to go.

I can't recommend this business enough…read more I brought my 2010 Nissan Maxima to Don's Auto Repair in East Passyunk after a really frustrating experience at a dealership. At the dealership, my car passed emissions, but they refused to give me a safety inspection sticker unless I agreed to replace both front hub bearings plus do an alignment for $1,618.71. When I asked for proof the bearings were actually bad (wheel play, stethoscope on the hub, etc.), they couldn't show me anything concrete just "it's the noise, trust us." I walked away instead of approving almost $2,000 of work. When I went to Don's, I did not tell him what the dealership claimed the problem was. I wanted to see what he thought it was. All I told Don was that my Maxima had a loud roaring noise above ~30 mph. He took the car in and within 9 minutes found the real issue: it was ONLY the front LEFT wheel bearing, NOT both. From there, he then gave me the option between a brand-name wheel bearing and an off-brand (the cheaper one only saved about $40, but it was still nice to be asked instead of told) Don explained clearly what was wrong and that the left one was shot and absolutely needed to be replaced, and the right one could wait. Don replaced that single left front bearing in about 3 hours. Don charged me almost $1,100 less than I would have spent following the dealership's recommendation. A nice surprise: Don does not charge a credit card fee, which I honestly can't say for anywhere else I've been ever. My car is now quiet, the noise is gone, and it was fixed right the first time: with one bearing instead of two, no guessing, and no pressure. If you're tired of feeling like you're being sold to instead of helped, go to Don's. He's exactly what you hope a neighborhood mechanic will be: honest, efficient, transparent about options, fair on price, and actually interested in fixing the problem without damaging your wallet. I'd give more than 5 stars if I could. Thank you Don!

Listen. LISTEN. If you are considering hiring this "mobile mechanic," please pause, take a deep…read morebreath, and maybe lie down, because what I'm about to describe is not for the faint of heart. This man rolled up to my driveway in a van that looked like it had already lost a fight with a tornado, a raccoon, and possibly its own sense of self-worth. He hopped out, spilled an entire soda, and said, "Don't worry, that happens." Sir. SIR. Why is that your greeting?? He opened my hood, nodded like he was understanding the secrets of the universe, then poked a totally random part and said, "Yep, that's your problem." When I asked what the problem was, he said and I quote, "Mechanic stuff." Thirty minutes later my car was making a new sound I can only describe as "haunted dishwasher screaming into the void." I asked him if that was normal and he said, "Cars make noises." Then he charged me an amount of money so offensive I think it might be a hate crime against my bank account. He drove away. My car died. In the same moment. Like they were spiritually connected and my car couldn't continue living after witnessing whatever he did to it. If you hire this man, may the automotive gods have mercy on your soul because he WILL NOT. i would give zero stars but, Yelp refuses to let me express the true depth of my suffering.

Finally that morning he came by. Told us the issues and told us what parts to get. We paid him $250 to buy the parts and $200 in labor. Not only did he get junked parts but none of them were good. I asked him to at least refund us for the money we paid in the parts. So he stopped responding. DO NOT USE THIS MECHANIC. He took our car parts and sold them for cash and our car still isn't running. We've had to have another mechanic take a look and begin to work on the car. This was a very unpleasant experience I wish on no one.

I wanted to continue supporting a local business, but unfortunately my most recent experience was very disappointing. I brought my car in for repairs and paid approximately $650. When I picked it up, I immediately noticed that my instrument cluster was no longer working. My speedometer, fuel gauge, temperature gauge, and odometer display had all stopped working. Because I had a doctor's appointment, I had to leave with the vehicle and couldn't immediately return. When I brought the car back and explained that everything on the instrument cluster had been working before I brought it to the shop, I felt like my concerns were dismissed. Instead of looking into the issue, I was told that I was just trying to get something for free. That was frustrating and disrespectful, especially considering I had just paid hundreds of dollars for the repairs. I also discovered that my transmission was leaking after I got the car back. It was not leaking before I took it to the shop. I can even document this with photos of my driveway, which had no transmission fluid spots before the repair. Now it does. This wasn't my first issue. Years ago, I paid around $500 to have gasket leaks repaired on my 1986 Chevrolet Silverado. The leaks were never resolved, and I was told I would receive a refund. I returned multiple times to collect it, but it never happened. Even after that experience, I chose to give the shop another chance because I wanted to support the business. I understand that running an auto repair shop is difficult and that some customers may not always be honest. However, every customer should be judged based on their own actions. I have always tried to be respectful and pay for the work performed. Being accused of trying to get free labor after paying for repairs was disappointing. My advice is to thoroughly inspect your vehicle before leaving the shop. Check that everything works, including your gauges, dashboard, and for any fluid leaks, before driving away. My experience left me feeling that my business was not appreciated, and unfortunately I cannot recommend this shop based on what happened to me.
