Went here for a set of tires .while installing them we noticed one was probably going to be bad .he spent 2 1/2 he's doing the install due to having difficulties with tire/machine .told me to let him know how it is .I let him know it was creating vibration issues and bc he is a one man show I had to go elsewhere to either get it corrected or get the tire replaced or I would of had to wait about a month and I was afraid I would be out of the period in which the manufacturer would replace it (cost me another 125 dollars on top of what I just paid Derek )..because I did not buy it at the other place they want me to pay for another tire then get reimbursed .that is understandable due to me not buying it there. .Derek also wants me to pay for another tire instead of communicating with his distributor and getting me a new tire .I feel that is wrong.every other shop has told me "if it was bought here we'd swap it out with out requiring you to buy it and getting reimbursed .when I tried to talk to Derek that I am in a bad situation and I am broke and don't know what to do and asked him for help ,he told me he has nothing to do with these tires and situation and that I could borrow money like everyone else does and the best he can do is if I buy another tire then he'd only charge me 40 bucks for the install ?I feel as tho he does have something to do with this situation .I bought the tires from him,he did the work and also knows the tire was giving him enough problems that it took him 2 1/2 hrs to complete the work .it would of been nice if he just ordered a new tire when we first noticed the issue when installing them .his issue I believe is he does not want to pay for the new tire and wait to get reimbursed ?isn't that what businesses do tho ?or they have some type of arrangement and relationship with their distributor that works for both of them?anything other then putting it on the customer who just spent about 1k for tires and it was noticed during install .it doesn't seem right to me but I try to be understanding of the situation .I know I will not return to this place of business for tires but will say he seems very knowledgeable about vehicles .if I needed work done I would trust his mechanical skills .maybe I am wrong in how I feel but I don't believe so .businesses should care about their customers and try to help anyway they can .ordering and installing the tires for a customer and noticing one tire is probably bad while first installing is definitely "having something to do with it" we all have our pros and cons and all have our bad days but this situation ,along with his responses "have nothing to do with it " rubs me the wrong way .Sincerely ,The freeloader ?

I am so happy I found Derek! I had just moved to State College from Cincinnati and to have car problems right after moving is not fun. Don't waste your time with any of the mainstream auto service places, he's worth 10 of those "certified mechanics." My Subaru was making this weird rattling noise that I couldn't pinpoint. Not wanting to spend an arm and leg at the dealer, I took my car to Midas and Tire town. What a waste of time, none of them could tell me what was wrong. I then found Derek and took it to him, and within 5 minutes of inspecting underneath the car, he found the source - a control arm bushing. He charges very reasonable prices for his fast, 5-star work too. I will definitely be taking my car to him for any future maintenance. Love his sweet doggie too <3Service: General repairs & maintenance

I have had two enhanced vehicle inspections done here, he made the process hassle free at a very fair price. If I lived closer, I would have all my service done here.

Overbooks himself which leads to mistakes being made and poor work. I've witnessed this myself a few times and seen it happen to others that have taken their vehicles here. Last time left me with more issues than I took it in with.

The owner is very knowledgeable and good to work with. I tried to have him do some work that wasn’t necessary, but he set me straight and saved me a good bit of money. Most places wouldn’t do that.
