Horrible no one is in the same page
My husband went to get his blinker bulb replaced, they called to advise that they damaged something else in the process so they change the bulb (mind you it works )and has my husband come back at a later date when his part came in which was 2 days later, they fixed what they damaged and my husband drives off only to realize his blinker is no longer working her returns immediately and is told well the blinker worked when we fixed it, but you have corrosion and thatās why the blinker isnāt working nowā¦. 𤬠and he would need to pay for the complete kit to fix it!!!
Number 2#
They somehow forgot to mark miles when my husband took his work truck there for brake change, he had the lifetime warranty replacement, he took truck up there several times because he felt grinding from his brakes and squealing, they told him brakes are fine nothing is wrong. Multiple times this happened. Finally my husbandās maintenance light comes on he takes it back only to be told now he needs to pay for rotors and the brakes need to be replaced and his rotors are out of warranty due to mileage, my husband says I brought my truck up here several times was told nothing is wrong and now the light comes on and they need to be fixed and it just so happens to be when Iām out of warranty, manager tells my husband the person who checked my husbandās brakes failed to put the mileage in when he brought it in previously so they canāt be sure if he was in warranty or notš¤¬š¤¬š¤¬š¤¬.
Moral of the story STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!
They quote none existent deals over the phone and no one ever knows anything aboutā¦.

I brought my car in on for tires after pick it up from Lexus for regular service, which indicated tires needed. Tires were installed at lane Ave store. When I picked up the car and drove to work, the TPMS light came on, which had not been on before and didnāt go off. I went back to the shop and told them what was happening. They checked and the tire pressure was good, but the TPMS sensor was bad. The guy that checked at first said that another guy that did the install may have damaged them, because he was off. Then the manager came and said that they were not working and needed replacing. My tires were just rotated by Lexus and recommended replacing. No TPMS light issue noted on the report. Iām not satisfied with the explanation I received and want someone on a higher level to contact me asap.

Horrible place to take your vehicle and get work done . They charged my warranty company $1600 to fix my issue and the issue still persist, they also broke my heater and claim it randomly went out which it didnāt . They just want money they will break your car . The workers are incompetent the mechanics are sorry . I had to file a complaint with corporate on them and the next wil be to take them to court after having a different pep boys location go over there work to see what they did wrong . Do not come to this pep boys try a different location the reviews donāt lie.

Walked in to get an oil change. Nobody was in the front. I had to open the bay door to get someone to come to the front to get service initiated. I literally said to the guy, " I have an Avis vehicle that needs an oil change." When we get to the counter, he's asking me less than 30 seconds of me telling him what I needed, "what do you need done today?" Was told it would be a hr wait, and it turned into a two hr wait. Once a full hr passed by, I checked the "keep track of you process link," and it showed that my vehicle was assigned to a tech and it was being served while I was STILL sitting in the car!! I went in to find out why it was showing that the car was being serviced, and was told the tech was on break, and once he comes back from break, it would then get serviced. Definitely won't be coming back to this location. It's annoying when you try to get a service done and you get the feeling that you're "bothering" someone to do what their getting paid to do. Hopefully, I won't have the same experience when I got to another location. The system said service would be done by 4:30 pm and didn't get the key back until 4:51 pm

If I could give negative stars I would. I brought my wheelchair van there and they broke it. I drove there and it was in running condition, just a little rough due to the spark plugs. I agreed to an inspection to which they told me that I needed plugs, wires and a distributor. They recommended a fuel pump and although it was working I decided to get it because I've already replaced most of the other parts on it. They made me wait TEN hours in the waiting room before admitting they could not start the van.
After they replaced those parts they were about to give it back to me and had it running for about 15 minutes as said by the employee, then it stopped working. They spent 2 weeks putting me off then told me it was the ignition. They replaced the ignition and it still would not work. That was when they started claiming that it needs a new motor which should have been told to me with the initial inspection before they had me get any of the parts replaced because if they had said that to begin with I would not have gotten it fixed there. It does NOT need a new motor because it was working when I brought it in. They lied about the amount of PSI compression, then kept changing the numbers which I have on recording. I have several calls recorded and every call they made different claims than before which proves they are lying. They contradict themselves repeatedly then lied to corporate saying that it was pushed there rather than driven. They offered me a free motor (admission of guilt) but then wanted to charge me for the labor which doubled what I had already owed on the van. All of their recorded blatant lies are going to prove to the court that they have no credibility. They tried to give me a rental car for 2 days on a weekend which would not have helped me at all and that was after making me wait over 2 weeks to know what was going on. They would not be trying to accommodate me if they didn't know they were at fault, especially to cover the cost of the motor. If they do not call me and tell me I can pick up my van with NO COST because they broke it, meaning I would be taking back a broken van, I will be forced to take them to court because they are now trying to charge me if I don't pay and pick up within 7 days. I notified them in the very same conversation that I was refusing to pay if I had to take it back broken, so if they try to say I owe them for it being in their lot, they cannot say they were not notified. So, everyone I spoke to from the counter employee, to the manager, to the district manager then to someone from corporate all lied and changed the claims they were making from one call to the next. DO NOT trust this place to work on your vehicle. They also lied on the report claiming that my tires are feathered but I have receipts that prove I just bought those tires within the past couple months. It claims that I have an oil leak which is also lie. First of all that would have been in the initial inspection and it was not. Second, an employee admitted on the phone that it was not oil but was power steering fluid which I know has a slow leak and just had to fill once in a while. So everything I was told after day one was lies, lies, lies. I asked the guy from corporate to look back at the cameras to see that they're lying and he said he would look at the cameras but then refused to call me back afterward which shows how much they care about the truth. If I do take them to court and they neglect to submit the camera footage as evidence which proves they are lying, that will also prove they are withholding evidence which only would be done to cover up a lie. So they basically robbed me of my van which I needed to be able to transport my wheelchair because I cannot walk around places for long, like the grocery store because I am physically disabled.

Awful experience. Overcharged by hundreds for materials. Sketchy and rude. Extra fees and materials added on I did not request or get notified about beforehand. Created a new issue that they could not fix. Told me to just go to another shop.

Scheduled an appointment for them to check my tire. It was slowly loosing pressure, so I assumed a nail. I sat there for two hours before my car was even taken to the back. They didnāt give any updates, as there was rarely someone in the lobby. They told me it couldnāt be patched (it was in the side wall) and I needed a new tire. I left and got a second opinion. The puncture was between the tread and was patched. They were friendly. But definitely wonāt be going back.

Chuck was very rude, short patient and would not allow you to ask questions, without answering you in a angry tone to let you know that you're not welcome to ask questions. I was looking to see where I could sit down and was told to come back later instead of being offered the opportunity to wait which was an option for me, so I walked around outside then noticed people going inside to a waiting room, where I eventually went back inside to patiently wait. I will never visit this location again by choice. I am a woman of color and can't help but wonder if I was treated unkind because of the color of my skin.

Went to have my a/c repaired. The guy said it would be $65 for them to see what is wrong. They did not know what the issue was when I picked up my vehicle but I was still required to pay $65. Place is a joke
