    Strite's Garage - Formal court hearing was held after failed resolution attempts

    Strite's Garage

    (6 reviews)

    In May 2025, I brought my 09 Pontiac G8 to Strite's Garage for a major rear-suspension overhaul…read more I supplied over $1,000 in new bushings for the job. The shop performed additional work I did not authorize and attempted to charge me for services I had specifically discussed -- which showed no signs of being completed. When I picked up the car, it was pulling hard to the right, scraping during turns, and howling at speed. I left a voicemail after the test drive to report the issues and explain I would be having the work inspected by a third-party shop before proceeding. Instead of replying directly to me, they reached out to family members of mine. That alone was enough to permanently damage my trust in how this business handles communication and conflict. Over the following weeks: - A tire shop found the subframe was misaligned, bolts were improperly torqued, and the alignment was far off. - After multiple visits to resolve it, I still had to go to a GM dealership twice to get the vehicle driving straight. - All in all, it cost me over 15 hours and additional repair bills -- just to fix strites work When I tried to resolve things formally, the owner did not dispute any of the details. Instead, I received a religiously framed email, offering a lump sum payout if I met him in person at a specific time. The tone and content were so unprofessional and manipulative that I can't even include them here -- because some platforms flag or reject the wording even though it's his. I have the full email saved and available upon request. Even on Better Business Bureau, the owner publicly used similar language -- asking readers to "continue to find life and meaning in Jesus Christ" in response to my report. That further reinforces my concerns. Summary: In my experience, Strite's Garage: - Performed serious suspension work incorrectly - Billed me for unauthorized work I never asked for - Billed me for work not done - Avoided accountability - Reached out to third parties instead of communicating with me - Attempted to resolve things through religious and emotional pressure

    I was recommended to this garage from my usual mechanic who would not take a deeper dive into what…read morewas going on with my engine in my mini van. He thought that the sounds and shaking from it meant that my engine was probably done! So he recommended that I take it to Strite's because he didn't want to deal with it. It turned out when Strite's took a look at it, that all it needed was a new timing belt kit, and a couple other reasonable parts for a Honda Odyssey from 2014 at 135k miles. I am extremely pleased with the level of expertise, friendliness, and the fact that they were honest, fair, and had a fast turnaround on the work. I would not hesitate to refer Strite's to friends and family, and I will definitely return to them for work on my vehicles in the future.

    I feel like this place is very misunderstood, I think you get what you give. meaning if you go in…read morebeing mean and nasty you are probably not going to receive the greatest attitude back from the person you are dealing with. I have always had good service. went in for title work was in and out in no time walked out with my pa plates and registration and got my title in the mail in a week went back a day later and got my car inspected was in a out for that too. one stop shop with fast friendly service.

    Don't take your vehicle here for any repairs or inspections. Something told me to stay clear of…read morethis place, but it came via referral. As soon as I got there, a guy was desperately attempting to work out a titling issue, which he did, I guess, to some degree...however as soome as he left the clerks started speaking negatively about him...as I'm sure they did with me after I'd departed. Regarding my visit, I went there for PA vehicle safety inspection as I'd awkwardly anticipated. They failed me due to wiper washers not working, rear LEDs on trim being out, and no CAT. Washer were working fine...my guess was they had no clue how to operate them. When I mentioned it inside, the female clerk said it was intermittently not working. LEDs had no bearing on the vehicles operation. The tech mentioned afterwards that I'd more than likely would get pulled over for it. It's highly unlikely, and I call BS. The only semi legit finding was the missing CAT, but I had no emission requirement in my county, so it shouldn't have even been considered. At the end of the day, these shops like this look for $hit to fail you on so they can drum up repair cost. Upon leaving, I was offered a day next week so they could "troubleshoot" all my issues and provide a quote for repairs. At another cost, I'm sure. I paid them their $28 and got the F on. Do yourselves a favor and go to a trusted mechanic shop and stay clear of this place. I really should've trusted my gut and mainly checked their reviews prior to pulling into the parking lot!

    The insurance company made us take our car to another body shop in the area. Two days after we…read moredropped it off, they more than doubled their initial estimate. I left D&J a voicemail at 4:30 on a Friday night to get a second opinion. He called me back within 15 minutes and explained all of my options better than the other shop and the car insurance company combined. Then, on Monday, once I had seen the car and taken pictures, he gave me a $100 solution to what the other company wanted $3300 for (and should have seen in the first estimate) and said another piece they claimed needed to be fixed was structurally sound. He offered to work with me to get secondhand parts to fit within my budget if I chose to salvage the car or drop the insurance claim- and I never paid him a dime for his services! I wish I would have taken our car to D&J instead of going through insurance and the other company. They are honest, communicative and truly have the customer's best interests in mind!

    I used New Bill's Autobody to perform a Maryland Safety Inspection on my vehicle. Sadly, I was not…read moreimpressed with their service, and this is not due to the fact that my car failed the first round of inspection. It is because I was told and then confirmed that I had EITHER 1,000 miles OR 30 days to fix my car and have it reinspected. However, upon my return to DJ's I was told the complete opposite by the same person. Instead of being within the 1,000 mile OR 30 day limit, one actually needed to be between within 1,000 miles AND within 30 days. As a result, I am now expected to take off more time from work to wait the obligatory two hours to have my car reinspected after I was assured that I did not have to follow both rules in order to be within the grace period after a failed inspection. But what really broke the straw was that the certified mechanic started working on another vehicle and I had to wait until he finished even though I had an appointment for that time. I cannot speak to their handiwork when it comes to repairs, but I can say, based off of my own experience, that New Bill's cannot effectively speak to their clients, and have poor customer service. And in the end they have caused a lot of wasted time and money in the long run.
