I've been using Authorized since I moved to a Philly for the past 3 years and picked them solely based on reviews and because walking by I saw a big mix of vehicle types being worked on which I thought was a good sign. They are the only shop in the area (of seemingly countless mechanics) I've found that doesn't have a problem working on a 90s Audi. I've brought Mike and the team some fairly obscure and/or old cars yet it never fazes Mike nor his dad. They are both true gents.I started bringing my car here just getting jobs done that I didn't want/couldn't do myself. They are so honest and fair, I find myself using them more and more all the time.Mike will explain everything to you along the way regardless of your car knowledge and he really calls around for the best deals on parts on your behalf so you know you're just not going to get ripped off.

Mike and his team are the BEST!! My car needed a new engine and I was so stressed about the process, finding a trustworthy mechanic, and the price tag. Mike was recommended to me and now no one else will ever touch my car! He made the process of getting my car a new engine so much easier. He explained everything and made sure I knew all my options. He is prices are fair and he is always honest! I recommend him to all my friends!!

I took my personal vehicle in to take a look at some challenges I was having (I have an older car). Mike was beyond nice and pleasant, he took the time to listen to my needs, made sure I understood what was needed and gave me a plan for what items I need to be aware of and timing of when to get other work done eventually. HIGHLY recommend Mike! I also took my small business vehicles to him as well!

I had gotten inspection and oil change. Never ever again will I go back. Something simple as an oil change they couldn't do it and they stripped the nuts and bolt. They told me to take it to a dealer to get it change. If they didn't have proper tools why even try to attempt.

I got a charger repaired here and the engine was not right. The vehicle still had a knock in it They do not know what they're doing. don't take ur vehicle here. I don't know how they ever got the name authorized they are not authorized. A business that been around since 1929 should have more than 7 reviews.Alot of bad reviews not postingService: Engine repair
