I can't tell you how wonderful the Team is at Dennys ServiceCenter. Being 53. buying / repairing cars since age 16. Iv lost all faith in auto repair until I went to Dennys in an emergency need fix. They restored my faith. Kind, courteous. No BS just straight facts and cost. Easy going great counter conversation and friendly atmosphere. Thank you . read more

Very polite they got me car in and out in the same day no bull with them , all u front and honest , love em

I'm a commuter to Behrend so my car is essential to get back and forth from the campus. The workers were very professional and helpful with informing me about what repairs were made to my car. My car was making an awful lot of noise. The fix was affordable and timely. Additionally, they were very kind and funny. Thank you for the help! I will definitely be coming back if I have any other car problems!!! read more

I took my 66 tri power GTO to him because it ran like hell. It's a new engine with 500 mi. The tri power was rebuilt by a guy that GOD takes his carb's to get rebuilt. ( California ) That's what the builder told me. I have so much money in that thing you would shit a brick. I can't even drive it around it's embarrassing. I found Denny's by accident and took it to him to make my baby feel better. He had to monkey with it for at least an hour. I called him later and he told me those 3 pretty little carburetors were junk and needed rebuilt. He was not familiar with tri power's and passed on rebuilding them. I thanked him for looking at them and asked what I owed him and he said no charge. What??? Who does that, great guy. I made a decision to take the tri power off sell it and go to 4 barrel carb and intake. Denny's is going to put it in can't wait. read more

I desperately needed a good mechanic after being screwed by a factory defective clutch in a brand new Hyundai that a local dealer shafted me on over a number of years. It was replaced but they put me off, never did the flywheel, never listened to my transmission concerns. Had a clutch replaced at apox 33K miles, 42K miles..........and now here I am with 64K miles and I needed a new clutch, throw out bearing, flywheel and a whole f******* new transmission. Granted my car just turned 10 years old, but I've only put on 64K miles on it, I do not drive stick like an a-hole and ride my clutch. I should have never let the dealer jerk me around this long, but when we bought the new car we were young and just married, and we thought it had a great warranty....I had no idea how screwed I'd be wit this "brand new" crap car and they're so-called "warranty" after they admitted to "defects". When my tranny crapped out a few weeks ago I called my Dad who recommended John Denny. Somehow my Dad knew him, or knew of him, for many years. My dad said, and I quote, "The guy is good and he knows it!" .....well I think he was trying to imply I might have sticker shock at the price of an estimate....apparently my Dad's never paid a bill at a dealer service department because Denny's price was exactly what I expected. Not back alley cheap, but extremely fair for the job. Honestly I can say his price was cheaper than I expected after talking to previous customers who said they loved him and how awesome he was. John Denny was very honest about every aspect of my work. He couldn't find a used transmission he felt comfortable putting in. I have a vintage car and I do much of my own work on it . So while my daily driver is nothing like my vintage, and I had never worked on new cars, I was still comfortable finding myself a transmission. I understood the reputation my particular car had, plus he's a busy guy, plus I could save myself money running down my own parts. We worked out a good deal. My car finally drives well (first time in 5 years?) , and the price was exactly what I was quoted, and it was done exactly when he said it would be done. They unloaded the parts I brought, and reloaded my core tranny when I was done (because I have to turn that into the place I brought my tranny from). When I went in to pay they gave me a small list of issues they saw that would keep me from passing inspection (bad tie rod, etc - problems I very much expected) there was NO PRESSURE to have them done. Needles to say it was a great experience! I felt there was great open communication, everyone was upfront about everything, and my car runs like it should! If you are looking for an HONEST mechanic and want to pay to have it done right the first time.....you should give them a call. read more

I was visiting from out of town this past weekend and the back of my car was wrecked in a hit and run while I was parked on the street. I had it towed to Denny's so they could make sure it was still safe to drive. They did an inspection and comped me the labor cost. I thought that was a very stand up thing to do, and these guys strike me as really decent and honest--qualities you definitely want to have in an auto mechanic. I'd recommend them to anybody who lives around here or is passing through. read more
