BUYER BEWARE!! THIS IS A ZERO STAR BUSINESS!!
Really wished I would have looked at these reviews before going to this Pep Boys for a PA Inspection. My experience was just like others listed here and worse. I was told that I needed over $700 in mandatory work before I would pass inspection. I also witnessed a quote of over $1000 for another customer. They did knock some things off their "mandatory" list...got me thinking. I left without the work done because I was suspicious that I was being scammed. Five minutes down the road, I got a flat on what was a perfectly good tire. When I did some research on mechanics in my neighborhood, I found a great local business with excellent reviews. NONE OF THE WORK that Pep Boys said was mandatory was needed. WHAT A SCAM. I had to pay the inspection fee twice. At least, I know never to go to Pep Boys on Ridge Ave in Philly again. AND I found a fabulous, honest local mechanic who is fair, respectful and reasonably priced!
