Dropped off my vehicle for an oil change and a radiator flush... they kept it overnight and ended up being able to do neither, and I left the next day with nothing done. I had to call for updates multiple times on the status, and I wouldn't have known they were even planning on keeping it later/overnight if I had not called, since no one bothered to reach out to me (despite saying they would). Quoted me $500+ at pick up for an 'issue' with the oil pan... went somewhere else the next day and got the oil change AND the radiator flush for $300 in less than 2 hours. If you don't know how to do an oil change on the vehicle... just say so! Will certainly not be returning after this... I just saved $200 by going somewhere else...Be careful out there yinz! read more

I scheduled a same day appointment to replace my car battery. Despite being very busy and close to close the staff was able to still get my appointment finished. Jessica was very friendly and helpful. Thank you for helping get my car back on the road! read more

I want to know what is going on at this place that they cannot seem to patch a tire without major issues. It cost me $238 total and a 2 day major headache. I brought my car here because I had a simple nail in the tread of my tire. They snapped one of the studs while taking it off the tire and broke the other while putting it back on. They asked me if I wanted to have them repair those broken studs in addition to the tire. They blamed the previous mechanic stating that he had likely stripped the studs. The car could no longer drive so I paid to have it towed to a reputable tire shop to get the studs and nuts replaced. Then I took it back to the mechanic who did the tire rotation and he was able to remove the other three tires and put them back on no problem. I think the likely culprit here is pep boys. read more

Pep Boys - Being rescued from Peo Boys - Auto Repair Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Came in Sunday March 30th 4pm. Needed a tire fixed. They took my keys, phone number and lic plate # I waited an hour at a coffee shop next door. I walked back and asked for an update. They hadn't touched my car and stated the tire tech left at 4:30pm no one called me to inform me of this. I waited an hour for NOTHING. Fire the entire staff. TRASH. Also staff needs to go to a barber shop.., Just trash read more

- Mark is terrible at customer service and does not like doing his job - Ideal place if you like to wait 1-2 days for your vehicle to get an inspection read more

Yo, what's up chat? This is the best car repair of ALL TIME!!!! They were very fast in fixing my brakes and also took an hour to remove the nail from my tire. I HIGHLY recommend this Pep Boys; the price is worth the value. read more

Douglas and the team were amazing! He found the issue with my tire and was able to fix it. I didn't have an appointment as I wasn't anticipating a flat tire & they took me quickly. Highly recommend read more

Awful. 4 hours for a scheduled inspection. And I'm still here. Waiting room very bare bones and unpleasant. No plugs anywhere for devices. Will not be back. read more

Our car needed an inspection, they let us make an appointment but then said they would not be able to look at the car until the next day. After hours of waiting for a call the next day they informed us that the car failed inspection and they wanted $1500 for some "problems" they found and to replace the windshield wipers. We let them fail it and I just ordered some wipers off Amazon for $20 and then we took the car to a dealership and it passed inspection without issue. This place is slow and a massive scam, avoid it. read more

My tires were deflating. They identified and corrected the problem (screws in the tires) on a Sunday afternoon and the fee was very reasonable. I appreciated their service. read more

I wish I could give them even more stars!!! The gate in back of my SUV broke and I couldn't get it closed to drive home (out of town), so I went to Pep Boys for help. And help they did!!! Their mechanic figured out what was wrong and miraculously got the gate closed to I could get home and have my mechanic order the necessary parts. Such awesome customer service. I'm so grateful!!! read more

I drove in from Chicago and my brakes started to make a grinding sound. I called and spoke to Doug and he was able to get me in for an inspection within an hour. Lamont did the inspection and came back with the backing plate was rubbing. He made an adjustment and had me out the door so I could keep my appointment that evening. NO CHARGE. It's tough to find a mechanic that is trustworthy and loyal. I was concerned after I began to read the reviews, but this location was very helpful and polite. I can't speak to all the other reviews, I am pleased with my experience and would return if I were in need of help in the future. read more

I had an 8am appointment for brakes and was literally the first person in the store when they opened. I was told my car would be done between 9-10am. My car wasn't brought back for FOUR hours and then they quoted me $650-$700 for rear brake pads and rotors - which after doing a bit of research seems quite high. They also told me the coupon I had for "auto maintenance and repair" might not apply to everything even though it says nothing about excluding brake repairs. Oh, and the store is under construction so there's no restroom for waiting customers. Avoid at all costs. read more

I went here to have my engine checked and later came back for my state inspection. When I dripped my car off the first time the person at the front desk was being rude to me even though I was prepared and had an appointment. They said they would take a couple of hours and it took 3 days just for an engine diagnostic. When I came back for my state inspection with my partner, they had to jump into our conversation due to the man being extremely rude and it's me and going back and forth with me over my appointment. He ended up kicking out my partner for defending me due to his rude demeanor and I chose to leave without the service because of the man's behavior. i have come to this shop continuously for the last 3 years and this was beyond unprofessional from them. read more

Been there before but the last few times have had horrible service. Took an entire day to have my tire plugged due to a nail. In the past, that has taken only an hour or 2 at the same location. Had an appointment for inspection at 10am on Saturday, but did not receive my car back until after 5pm Sunday. I was not made aware of them keeping my car overnight. Had they told me that I would have cancelled my service, I was suppose to work Sunday. As it turned out, I had to call out of work Sunday, lost wages, only to be told they hadn't even started on my car and at this point it was Sunday at 9:30am. I was called at 12:30 to be told I needed a headlight and wiper blades replaced. Apparently that takes 5hrs to do. Never recommending this place and never going back. read more

these guys work hard at the Shadyside location. I was in the shop on a Saturday getting an oil change and they were so busy but always polite and nice to every customer was there again on a Monday because I got a flat tire again understaffed but always had a smile on their face. I would recommend this location if you need work done on your car. Doug was the best. Asst Manager jumped in to help the front desk both days I was there. read more

I dropped my car off at noon, they told me it would be quick. I returned at 2 pm & my car was still in the same parking spot. I asked how much longer & they responded that less than 40 minutes. After 3 hours, they were done. My folder and keys sat on the counter and no one attended me so I picked it up myself. They were very unorganized. read more

I was in Mt Lebabon last night visiting relatives and I noticed my left front tire was losing air. AAA could not find someone to help me and I took a chance and drove home after spinning my wheels for 2 hours. I called Pep Boys this morning and was really happy to talk to a kind person. I didn't get his name but he was very pleasant and accommodating. He told me I did not need an appointment and I could drop the car off at my convenience. The car was taken immediately and I received several texts regarding its progress. The car was completed in record speed and I could not be happier. I highly recommend Pep Boys and their incredible customer service. CE read more

12pm appointment for an oil change I showed up at 11:45, it's now 3pm and I'm STILL waiting. 3+ hours for an oil change is ridiculous.

do not take your car here for anything. simple oil changes take hours. yearly state inspections take all day. no point in scheduling an appointment because it means nothing. this place is unorganized. the employees are miserable. no one is helpful. they told me my muffler was going to cost $2000. i went to meineke and they welded it w/o any cost. please heed my advice. ive been here on multiple occasions and every-time i think it cannot get any worst and it soooo unbearable. read more

EXCELLENT customer service at the location on S. Millvale! Although they were busy and I did not have an appointment, Eddie took the time to look at my deflated tire. On top of that, he showed me the exact cause of the problem AND took the time to replace my tire even though it was nearing closing time. I could not appreciate the care, consideration and patience more. Highly recommend! read more

I live 5 minutes away so this Pep Boys is convenient. That is why I came here in the first place. Now, let me tell why I won't be coming back. I took my car here last weekend to get my state inspection completed. They called me saying that I needed two tires, an alignment and new brakes to pass the inspection. Basically, I was like: take my car down, I'm coming to get it. Like when you have to pick up your child from school because they're misbehaving. They charged me $124 for an oil change and a half-passed (see what I did there?) inspection. Those brakes would have costed $250 and the alignment at least $90. I took my car to another auto shop and what do you know: I only needed two tires. Moral of the Story: don't trust Pep Boys. read more

Staff is incapable of making accurate estimates on how long the work will take. Just today I waited nearly six hours to get a single lightbulb changed. Don't get your inspection here; their feedback is primarily designed to upsell you on services that they're too understaffed/incompetent to complete in a single business day. I considered bumping up to two stars because the staff was polite to me, but then overheard them mocking other customers who weren't there. Will not revisit. read more

ABSOLUTE SHAMELESS CROOKS AT PEP BOYS SHADYSIDE. AVOID THEM LIKE THE PLAGUE. My husband dropped off my car to this Pep boys location for a state inspection on Dec 11. We received the car back the same day with a receipt for 84.06$ which included an emissions check, state inspection and the inspection sticker. My husband brought the car home and I drove it the next day. When I got into the car, I noticed that the inspection stickers were the old ones and were not replaced. My husband is a brand new car owner and driver and did not know to check for the stickers and I did not ask him to check when he picked it up because I assumed Pep Boys ( you would think) would know to change the stickers. They even billed for the sticker! I called Pep boys the next day and asked about the stickers. The manager Josh told me that they probably forgot and asked me to come back the next day. Since we were going on vacation, I asked if it was okay for us to bring the car back after 2 weeks to which he said yes. Two weeks later on Dec 26th, Pep boys told us that they "forgot" to do the inspection on Dec 11 and that they needed to do a full inspection AGAIN before giving us new stickers. They did say that there would be no extra charge. I then got a call from Scott from pep boys who said that the front tires tread was 2 and 3 or something and that I would need to have ALL 4 TIRES changed. I said I would not want to do that right now and he said he could not pass the car for inspection. I reminded him that the car already underwent a full inspection 2 weeks ago ( I have the paperwork from Pep boys on Dec 11 to prove it and they passed the tires and stated the treads of all 4 were 8,9,9 and 8) and I asked how come the tread numbers changed in 2 weeks? He went quiet, placed me on hold for 30 mins and then said "So we have new guys in the front and they just wrote some random numbers down on that sheet you have. They don't mean anything and they were new guys so they did not know what they were doing. In order to pass your car today, you would need to have all 4 tires changed and told me the cost was 1136.78. After this obvious blackmail, I felt trapped into agreeing coz my husband had already been to this Pep boys multiple times and we were nearing the expiry of the current stickers as we were 4 days away from the new year. I quickly called back after agreeing to the tires to ask if they could stop so I could get the car to a discount tire place and was told the car already had the old tires off and that they could not stop what they were doing. Pep boys FORGOT to give us the initial inspection stickers after passing the car two weeks ago and fraudulently had us repeat an inspection so they could swindle us and trick us into paying for new tires. AVOID THIS LOCATION/PEP BOYS ALTOGETHER. THEY ARE SHAMELESS FRAUDS WHO DO NOT CARE THAT THEY ARE RIPPING YOU OFF TO YOUR FACE. HOW CAN YOU PASS A CAR AND HAVE HIGHER TREADS TWO WEEKS AGO AND THEN TELL US OUR TIRES DO NOT MEET STANDARDS TWO WEEKS LATER??? That means your initial state inspection was not done and just fabricated by your inspectors and you billed us for it and YOU forgot to give us the stickers.  YOU should not be allowed to conduct inspections. We will be reporting this to the DMV. read more

Pep Boys Awesome Survey (Jeff Kennedy, Store Manager)! I would like to say a tremendous THANK YOU to Jeff Kennedy, Store Manager in Shadyside who gave us excellent customer service today. Eddie and Douglas were also kind and knowledgeabl. Jeff went above and beyond the call of duty to help us. He was very professional, knowledgeable, kind, and explained all the services that our Mercedes Benz E-350 needed for approximately 1 hour without any impatience. Additionally, the prices at Pep Boys were half off what Mercedes Benz charges. He also offered a Military Discount. Furthermore, he offered the Pep Boys Credit Card so we can make easy payments. Most importantly, as we talked to Jeff, we found out that he's a Man Of God, and as a woman that was the Trust factor that my daughter and I were looking for to put our minds at ease that he was not going to overprice and that our car was in great hands. As an added bonus, the Abundance of Financial Blessings that we received were Heaven sent and on time. Thank you Jesus! Wow! We have Kingdom men and women of God everywhere! Pep Boys is lucky indeed to have Jeff Kennedy as their valued employee and Store Manager. Jeff Kennedy is the epitome of Premium Quality Customer Care, Excellent Customer Satisfaction, and Platinum Top Tier Customer Service. Jeff Kennedy is bringing in customers from the luxury dealerships of Mercedes-Benz and BMW that are across the street and making a lot of money for Pep Boys while simultaneously making the customers happy with all the money we are saving and receiving superb customer service. The service was very quick. We went to eat at the Khali's Restaurant across the street, and by the time our food arrived, the services to our car were done (4 new tires, alignment, brakes, battery, oil change, inspection). Moreover, he went above and beyond the call of duty to offer us assistance. As a result, Jeff Kennedy deserves an Award Plaque, stellar evaluation, and promoted to Regional Manager. Happy Mercedes-Benz E350 Customers, Queen Angie and her Princess read more

As I read the reviews it seems as the quote times are awful. I dropped my car off at 9am for a 10:30am. For brakes and rotors ended up needing calipers which is fine but the quote time and window for appointments need to be changed. I won't have my car back until 3:30-4. For a 10:30 appointment I dropped off for at 9. Also they more than one car at the for a 8am appointment so there might be 10 8am appointments and 2 mechanics. I'll keep this in mind next time read more

This place sucks. I dropped off my car and was told it would be ready between a specific time and I went to pick it up an hour after the "ready" time, and they hadn't started. I understand labor shortages, but call the customer and let them know that there is a delay. There is a total lack of care and accountability here. I would never go back or trust them with any vehicle. The 3 people in line ahead of me were also disappointed and misinformed. read more

Brought my daughters car in to inspect and fix the shaking steering wheel from suspected out of balance tire. Took over a week to inspect and tell us her wheel had broken lug stems. Charged $269 for two stems and balance. It did not fix the problem. Took it to another mechanic and he found the problem right away. Tire separation from the steel belt and it was super obvious! How can a company that replaces tires on a consistent basis not notice something so simple. I know they were short staffed, but they should have test driven the car at least to make sure they fixed the problem! Total rip off! Cost $90 for a new tire and problem solved. read more

I had new brakes and rotors installed. Besides the add on after a quote, the work done is not right. I called the 1 800 # and they took all the information about my experience and someone was to be in touch. Never happened. read more

These guys do not know what they are doing and are understaffed. I'm tired of the misinformation that they give, the ridiculously long waits duting scheduled appointments and the lack of communication that occurs way too much. They are unbelievable in their inability to do simple tasks like an alignment or oil change. I recommend avoiding Pepboys on Clairton Blvd. read more

NEVER TAKE YOUR CAR HERE!! I took my car to get a state inspection. I'm a girl I came in alone. I just got my car check 6 months ago and was confident they wouldn't try to take advantage of me.. WELL FOLKS.. I get a call saying that 1,500 worth of work needs done! I took my car back and they failed my state inspection, I didn't let them work on it. Got my car and Took it two other guys who said NOTHING I WAS WRONG WITH MY CAR. I'm mind blown rn read more

Worst service ever from Eddie. He was so beyond disrespectful to myself and my partner. Also they don't prepare for appointments, so be ready to wait well past the pickup time they tell you. read more

It has been about 3 months since my service and I still have not gotten response from the company with an offer of resolution for all of the issues. They did not honor advertised specials, they did hundreds of dollars of damage to my vehicle, parts of my car are missing, and they falsified what work was done on my car. They won't even acknowledge the issues. read more

I had brought in two new tires that i had purchased elsewhere to be put on my car. Tires were put on in about a hour and a half. After getting the new tires on my car started to make weird noises and the next day two luggnuts SNAPPED off on the highway. Called Pepboys they said to pay for a tow and they will see if they are at fault. Called customer service who said give them 48 hours and they will get back to me. Then the area director called and didnt answer when he was called back MULTIPLE time. Store manager said he would be reviewing the cameras and never did. Called customer service again since it's been 48 hours still nothing but they added case notes. Still not able to drive my car. read more

Will not be coming back, was told 45 minutes on the phone when I made my appointment for a tire patch. It has been 2 and a half hours and they just now started on it. read more

Sad to say, awful experience in Cranberry. Tires put on a month or so ago. Had to keep car overnight after dropping off on an appointment around 2. (Happens, but I had to call to find out it wasn't getting done and NO discount for troubles) Now, Cooper tires have rubber flaps around 3 tires and were told it came from manufacturer like that. WHY INSTALL ON THE VEHICLE?? and that it was normal???? Tires look bad and no one WILL HELP. Total Joke!! read more

Where do I start. I had to flats had my car towed there to have them replaced. Took about a week to get tires changed through a warranty I had. 7 days later picked up the car tires were in the back not the front. I had to go to valvoline to get all my air pressure the same because they didn't make sure they were all the same psi. This place had terrible customer service. They have no workers! I should never have to sit on hold for over 30 minutes that's ridiculous. Overall I will never go to pep boys ever again! read more

Really horrible. They ruined my perfectly good oil pan by putting a bolt too big to secure it in place. Stripped the thread when they removed it. Had to wait on a replacement as well as a brand new oil change. 9:30 appointment turned into me picking my car up at 7:00 pm right before they closed. They paid for all services and Ubers to and from the store. It was a horribly long day nonetheless. Don't go here. read more

I called for an evaluation of my car. First thing he said was the price, even before I told him the problem. After I explained what was going on I asked to schedule it for next week, I'd just need to check my work days. Called back three times, no one picked up. Pittsburgh sucks for auto repair. read more

DO NOT bring your car here for anything. The worst service I've ever received. The man with the giant vape torch and ponytail lied not once, but twice and told me that my car was ready when they hadn't even started it yet. read more
