    Made a reservation in the morning for inspection on the same day afternoon. Super nice experience…read moreand fair price! Sharer's Auto is absolutely a treasure here~

    I've been in State College for about a year now. Whenever I need a tune-up, I go to my guy back…read morehome, so I never really had a reason to find an auto shop up in PA. Lo and behold, my AC decides to crap out during this hot, hot summer. A friend suggested a mom and pop shop near campus. After giving them a call, I was informed that they did not work on AC units. I then asked if there was any shop in the area they could suggest. The gentleman on the other line recommended Sharer's Automotive. I immediately gave them a call. The receptionist, Tracy, was so helpful and sweet. Thankfully, I was able to schedule an appointment for the same day (or else I would've had to drive back home to Maryland in the scorching heat!). Jared, the owner and mechanic, explained to me what was potentially happening with my car. He informed me that to know for sure whether or not there was a leak, he would need to place a special dye in the system. Jared flushed out the AC system and added refrigerant. I then scheduled a follow-up. I went back yesterday to have my AC checked. Jared found some minor leaks and gave me a pair of neon yellow glasses to see for myself (which was pretty cool, I might add!). Oftentimes, mechanics may push for unnecessary repairs and upsells. However, I am pleased to tell you that this was not the case at Sharer's Automotive. Jared was very honest, and the prices were fair. I'm delighted to have found this garage!

    DO NOT GO HERE. The mechanics themselves just want to do their jobs, but the manager dude (I guess…read morehis name is Josh?) is shady asf and talks down to women. Nick had previously resealed the transmission pan on my Subaru (it was leaking before when I had tried to seal it myself with an anaerobic sealant). So he fixed it, but it started leaking again. It's a known flawed design from Subaru (the pan doesn't use a gasket but just mates metal to metal) and so it's a common issue with subarus. Anyway, Josh tried to gaslight me and tell me that the leak was actually coming from the output shaft seal because "the wind was pushing the oil leak down and making it look like the pan was leaking." In reality, he just didn't want to redo the repair because it would cost him time x money on his own dime + expensive CVT fluid. He thought he could just gaslight me about what was happening as a solo female and I'd just pay up. Well, I didn't take his bs bait. This is exactly why I started doing my own repairs on my car because you can't trust these dudes. At the very least, Josh could've tried to work with me instead of starting an argument, like say "I can see why you'd think that and we can repair xyz at discounted rate and if the transmission pan is still leaking then we'll replace that on the house." You're not very good with zero customer service skills.

    I've relied on these guys for many years and have always found them to be competent, up-to-date,…read morethorough and accommodating. This is really a big plus for the Bellefonte/SC area (and I've seen most of the rest)!

    Big shout out to Marvin in the body shop. My mom is 73 and disabled. She always takes her lincoln…read moreto Joel Confer for service, and they always treat her great. Very helpful with her condition. She recently got into a fender bender, mild rear end collision. Marvin went above and beyond to help her out. I do not live locally and I am so thankful for good people like him who take the time to help. My mom is very pleased with the repair. Joel Confer Ford is an excellent example of a small town business that really cares about the customer. Thank you!

    Done business with this company. I feel as tho if your a women. The company thinks you know nothing…read moreabout vehicles. But I'm not a fool when it comes to mechanic of a vehicle. Telling someone that to do a job takes 16 hours is outrageous. If you are rebuilding a engine or transmission yes it maybe 10 to 12 hours. But to exchange a part out and put the replacement in i don't think so. So I ask a few friends whom have service garages in 5 different states. They all Laugh. Your system you use to calculate jobs has Errors or maybe it's the mechanic error inputting or maybe your trying to ripe customers off into spending $$$$. I can say that your team distinctly told lies cause people heard the information wrote it down and a few days later there was a different price and when confronted your team said they never said that at least a few times. Your business may do business with the state and county vehicle and they pay to service them because they don't have their own garages like in other States. But maybe they should do inquires. I'll have to ask the state garages to see. But as far as vehicle repairs I'm going to say Stop Telling Customer Wrong Information or write down what your Telling Customers.
