The damage caused to my car's engine by the Pep Boys tech
Jamie E.

I am typically not one to post bad reviews, however I would advise not taking your car to this Pep Boys location (well probably any Pep Boys location for that matter) if you would like to save yourself a huge headache and damage to your car. I took my 2014 Jetta to this Pep Boys location in January to have the spark plugs replaced. The tech/manager said that the spark plugs were stuck so they had to take apart my engine to get them out, and in doing so, they damaged it so badly it couldn't be put back together (see photos). The tech and manager (Chad) tried to claim that they didn't know how this happened, but metal doesn't just break on it's own, and the engine had never been disassembled before. We ended up having to have the car towed to a different shop who stated that due to the damage the entire engine needed to be replaced. A dealership came to the same conclusion. After weeks of going back and forth, Pep Boys did finally agree to pay the $3,800 to replace the engine, but we were without the car for 6+ weeks! Pep Boys did pay for a rental car for about half that time. I did appreciate that they did make it right after we pushed them too, however I think there is an extreme lack of expertise if an engine is broken so badly it needs to be replaced while a mechanic is trying to replace the spark plugs. As a side note, something that was particularly frustrating is that this location is terrible at answering their phones! While the car was not running due to the damage they caused, it was VERY difficult to get ahold of anyone for status updates on getting payment. Additionally, we were never contacted by a regional manager or anyone from corporate other than the person who helped with the claim, even though we asked repeatedly to be put in contact with a district manager. Like I said, save yourself the headache and broken car and go somewhere that is more professional and has more expertise!!!!

Wow my car really got "fixed"!
Aaron D.

I've come here three times in the past two months to fix my low tire pressure. Each time they said either nothing was wrong, or theyve fixed it. Even though about an hour later each time, the Tire pressure light on my console lights up again and I can feel my tire is softer. I've wasted too much time and money on these people to try to get it fixed with them again. They didn't even tell me my tire was flat until I went to a Discount Tire and got it checked out. The people at this PepBoys are either lazy, incompetent, or just want you out the door so they can move on to the next customer. Follow-up: Not even 24 hours after coming here to get my tire repaired, my tire blew out completely (see photos). I swear they did more damage than good to the tire likely. I will be taking my business any other place to save myself time and hassle

Not open as posted on Yelp. Had an emergency and headed there only to find it closed. Not nice. Correct your hours on Yelp.

Frank was no nonsense and did exactly what he said he was going to do for the price he quoted,…read morewhich by the way was 1/2 of other places. Great communication. Found my new mechanic!

Company filing BANKRUPTCY! Do your homework! Charging customers and not paying bills! Cannot…read moreprovide a receipt for $2,800 in parts I paid for, no old parts to give me. I have this recorded among other false, damning statements. Andy said they could get my car through emissions and specifically said "we are not a waiver shop, we fix it right". (Gave me waiver instruction form to cheat the system and pass illegally when I picked up car). Been dealing with them 6 months of going back to have check engine light and codes "turned off". Codes indicate car is dangerous to drive dumping raw fuel and going to ruin engine, towed it 30 miles to a mechanic referred to me by the best Demon, Hellcat shop in the country. Fixed in 2 days. Have 30 minute recording of Andy and Mike double talking and Mike saying Andy doesn't know tunes. Mike the owner saying, "blame everyone else". Well I did take it to YOUR shop. No one is certified I am told! Prior mechanic doing tunes on his personal computer, now he is gone. Where is my dyno report? Part numbers? RED FLAG LOOK UP THE LEGAL ISSUES I believe nothing was done, light came onp immediately leaving emissions. They need cash, but creditors are all over them. Mike will not split the bill of $2800 at the very least. Called me insane because I asked for receipts and explanations. I paid $1440 to get it right at a real speed shop. I want that paid for also. They do not know Magneson tunes! Even after replacing my ECU and all O 2 sensors! Did you really replace? Where is invoice? No tune he said, but my invoice says ECU tune. Which was it? Said I was using the word tune wrong. Just repeating what you said you were doing...3 ON YOUR SIDE NEXT, with my 30 minute recorded conversation with them. Hopefully I can save another person the agony of dealing with these clowns. OWNER COULDN'T CARE LESS, he filed bankruptcy and has a bunch of other lawsuits. Mine is small in comparison. Negative stars. Praying for Karma.
