Brough a 2012 ford fusion here that I was looking to purchase. Timothy was absolutely wonderful and KIND. During the pre purchase inspection they looked over multiple things over the course of almost two hours. They even offered to take me back home so I didn t have to sit there and wait. I was taken back into the shop and they physically showed me the car and the one minor issue they found. Tim also made sure I understood exactly what he was saying when he was explaining details. On top of that he ran the car through databases to try to see if there had been any recalls on the car. Checked for pretty much everything, was happy to answer my questions and give solid advice. The whole report was printed and sent to me via text which further explained exactly what they looked over and even photos. Looking forward to bringing our cars back to this garage.

Hey so about a year and a half ago I stopped bringing my car to this place because of there lack of care towards my vehicle and there absolutely through the roof pricing for the repairs which were never done properly and to this day my car suffers the same problems as it did when I told them the issues with it about 3 years ago. I wrote a terrible review on this place at the time of ending business with them and they told people I had issues with my mental health knowing fully well what they did to my car was wrong and unacceptable for it to happen. I truly trusted them to take good care of my car and they chose not to, even taking a part off of it without my permission and replacing it with an off brand piece of junk that I had removed and replaced myself with a good Japanese part that belonged on my car in the first place. They hired people at the shop that aren t in the best mental health to be working there and continue to do the same things they did to me to others that they don t like without telling them. This place should be closed down for a lot of reasons and the fact that people continue to give this place good reviews is just appalling and untrue. BUYER BEWARE

I ve been a customer at Murante Auto for about four years now, we have a hybrid and a plug-in hybrid that we take there. We recently moved and tried a few other mechanics in our new county but no one compares to Murante s meticulous and diligent work. We now make the drive of 45 minutes to Murante because they offer the best service by FAR.

They really cared about informing me about the price, the state of my car, the nature of service, and the time length of service every step of the way! I sincerely appreciate how honest they were and how high quality their service was! Very happy!

Truly a disappointment of an auto repair shop. I was happy to have found an repair shop close to home for the convenience, but little did I know they lacked the professionalism and knowledge that a true mechanic should have. I have taken two of my vehicles to Murante in order to have them properly maintained and repaired when needed. Every single time that I have gotten a repair done, the problem continued and was not fixed properly. Hundreds of dollars down the drain to repair something that was not repaired properly. They never completed a thorough inspection of the problem in order to assess what was truly wrong. They would find little things and say they "might" be the problem and would never truly know what was wrong! It is shocking that a shop with "so much experience" cannot diagnosis issues in such common vehicles.My first vehicle was brought in due to a misfire and a transmission and engine oil leak. They said that they could not fix anything until they took the engine apart simply because they assumed it was the head gasket. They charged me hundreds just to give me that information and didn't even have the courtesy to add engine or transmission fluid to get the car out when I decided against fixing it with them. I later took it to another mechanic who took his time to actually look at the car and it was determined that one cylinder was simply worn out. There was no head gasket or transmission issue. The car was fixed for a fraction of the price and is now running like new. My second vehicle was brought in due to a radiator leak. They conducted a head gasket test and it came back negative. They replaced the radiator and forgot to plug in the cooling fans. A couple days later, the radiator gives out and leaves me stranded at work. I tow the vehicle in and they start suggesting that it may be the head gasket. They replace the radiator under warranty and a week later the car begins to over heat. I bring it to them to inspect and he starts accusing me of "pointing fingers" at them for questioning the integrity of the radiator even though it had already failed once days after being installed. He tells me to "google everything if I do not believe him" which I found extremely unprofessional and passive aggressive. Obviously if I am taking the time to go to a "professional" I want to hear what is actually wrong and not what google says. It is such an absolutely ridiculous comment. He brings up the head gasket possibility once again without even having any head gasket issue symptoms. The same exact thing that he did with the other car. After having the dealership replace the thermostat, the issue is gone and there is no issue with the head gasket at all. It is clear that they are money hungry and are trying to take advantage of customers without truly fixing their car. They do not conduct an overall inspection of the vehicle nor do they have experience in completing repairs to factory standards. Their unprofessionalism and rude demeanor is not something that should be tolerated especially when someone has wasted so much money on their "repairs".I will never return to this shop and I will spread the word to encourage people to avoid them at all cost. I will continue servicing at the dealership as they have always been able to correct the issues that Murante is not capable of finding on their own. If you value both your vehicle and your wallet, please go elsewhere for your automotive needs.Service: General repairs & maintenance

My experience with Murante Auto was fantastic! Very clear communication and price estimates. They were able to shuttle me home when I dropped off my car. I will definitely be back and trust them with my car.Services: Tire rotations, Oil changeServices: Tire rotations, Oil change

I have been going to Murante for about 2 years now and I am very happy. It does seem that thier prices are just a bit higher than others but it is worth it. You pay for quality. I always get my car back same day unless planned otherwise and there are never any surprises financially. They even check in a few days later to see how the car is running. The staff are all very professional but also very friendly and this has been consistent. To any women who are looking for a place to go where you wont be taken advantage of mechanically/financially and you're not trying to have 10 smelly dudes ogle you, I definitely recommend.Services: Steering & suspension repair, Tire rotations, Vehicle Inspection, Wheel alignment, Brakes, Auto emissions testing, Air conditioning, Vehicle safety inspection, Wiper blade installation, Auto maintenance, Oil change

Moved to the area and that meant leaving my great mechanic behind. After getting really screwed by another shop in the area, I found Murante. These guys ROCK! They're honest, the pricing is fair, the work is good, and always done in a timely fashion. They even shuttle me home so I don't wait in their shop for my car. I really feel like Lou, Thomas and the whole team at Murante take care of my car as if it belonged to their own family. Just a super shop, and I'm very grateful I found them!

It was very easy making an appointment, and everyone I talk to from the shop was extremely polite and friendly. Thomas was exceptional. Not only did he identify and resolve my issue, but he also taught me how to do some things myself. The price was so reasonable, and I will definitely be bringing my service to them again.Service: General repairs & maintenanceService: General repairs & maintenance

Excellent shop. Was going to another shop for 20 years. It started going down hill and had to return multiple times because stuff wasn't done right. I had to leave that shop and glad I found Murante. The owner is kind enough to take me home and pick me up when car is done! You don't find that at many places. Quality of work is good!Services: General repairs & maintenance, Brakes, Auto emissions testing, Oil changeServices: General repairs & maintenance, Brakes, Auto emissions testing, Oil change

Lou and Thomas provided excellent, friendly service in an honest, fair and timely fashion. Necessary repairs, pricing and time needed to complete the job were clearly communicated up front, and the work was finished earlier than promised. Thomas, who agreed to take my car last minute, exceeded my expectations in making sure my 2003 Camry would be safe for my upcoming commute to Newark Airport, fixing a number of unexpected problems including a cracked tire that had been overlooked by a mechanic who had recently rotated my tires. Thank you very much! Am very happy I chose Murante Auto Repair and highly recommend them!

I would like to give Lou, Thomas, and staff a huge thank you. This mama from Michigan was visiting PA when her power steering went out. MY boyfriend and I called around and no one would get us in to get us home to my kids. Thankfully Lou and Thomas saw my desperate cry to get home and got us in, worked their magic and got us home safely back to Michigan (I even got a hug because I was in tears). They also texted the next day to make sure we got home. If you ever need work on your car please see our new friends from PA. Their kindness and great work means that much more.Service: Steering & suspension repair

As a first time customer, I could not have been more satisfied with the care I received! Thomas and crew went above and beyond the standard service normally received at other auto repair shops, taking the time to clearly explain the work required to fix my exhaust issue. I am happy to say that my car now runs better than it has in awhile. Without a doubt, Murante Auto Repair is the place I will return to for future auto service.

This is god tier auto repair. The workers are all super nice, and they took the time to explain everything to me each time I showed up. Service is prompt and fast, and the prices were very reasonable. They also were willing to work with my schedule. I really can't think of any way it could be better.You might want to bring a coat if you're going to be waiting there, though- they keep the office at like 60 degrees during the summer!

Great service! Visited this shop last weekend on the recommendation of a friend and was extremely pleased with the professionalism, quality of work, and price. Jack was the tech that worked on my car and he did an astounding job. I came in for some suspension work on my 110k mile Honda S2000 and now the car drives like new! He knows his stuff when it comes to alignment settings. Thanks again Murante!

Sincere and Genuine. This is what comes to mind after my experience with Murante Auto Repair.My Mini Cooper was rear ended from a distracted driver. The back bumper had dents, cracks, and crease damage. I thought I was going to have the bumper replaced.They were very sincere and friendly from the moment I showed up for an estimate.This is the first time I have been to a repair shop with such quick turn around times. They had the bumper looking good as new in less than two business days. And I didn't have to replace it either. Just from speaking with them, you can easily see how genuine they are with what they do and care about their customers. Very enthusiastic and informative.On top of that, they topped the car off with a wash. The car looks cleaner than when I dropped it off. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Still using Murante a year after the review below and could not be any happier with their support and service. Recommend them often and love supporting a local business as well.Excellent service from start to finish! My husband used them a couple months ago and suggested I try them as well - we are now both happy to say we have a superb local place we can turn to for all our vehicle support needs.

Have been taking multiple cars there for a few years now. I am always pleased with the service received. Both Lou and Thomas are extremely helpful when it comes to figuring out what needs to be done with the car as well as how urgent that work needs to be done. The prices are more than fair for the amazing quality of service received.

These guys were competent, thorough and quick! Been through experiences with some mechanics where it was a hit or miss with their ability to perform. Not these guys! I was very pleased with all aspects of the experience, and they performed more than ten tasks in less than two days.

Murante's is by far the best auto repair shop i have ever been to & I have been to a significant amount. Their service was above & beyond with their communication of what they were doing with my car from start to finish to actually having a courtesy shuttle (driven by the owner himself) pick me up. I was amazed! Now I understand why AAA recommended them because I will be also & will never be taking my car anywhere else than Murante's :)Service: General repairs & maintenance

Two weeks ago I had my four tires replaced with new tires. A surprisingly wonderful cost and great service they had me done really fast. A week or two later I hit a pothole famous for Pennsylvania. I called the Murante auto repair service and in no time they had a new tire put onIn no time flat. I would recommend this service to anyone.

I've been going to Louis and Thomas for about 2 years now and I'm always satisfied with their service. I find them refreshingly trustworthy and knowledgeable and most importantly they never try to rip me off (unlike certain dealerships). I highly recommend going there if you want to keep your car in top shape!

The Murante Auto Repair team is extraordinary. They are highly skilled, accommodating, personable, and trustworthy. They've gone above and beyond helping our family of 7 with vehicles that are far from brand new. Lou and Thomas know each and every one of us by name (even the pup). They are professional and timely with all of our challenges we bring them, as well as honest and transparent in recommending future services without being a single bit pushy. We are moving out of town in the near future, and the part of Nazareth I'll miss most is the team at Murantes that's come to feel like family.
