Auto Specialties fixed a problem with my car that I've had for years. He took the time to ensure the problem was resolved and followed up to ensure all was well. Highly highly recommend Auto Specialities of Philadelphia!

Took my Volvo XC90 to Auto Specialties in Fox Chase last week. I refuse to use a Volvo dealership anymore because almost all of them are overpriced and speak an advanced vocabulary that makes my head spin. I feel lucky that this establishment worked on Volvo's. I know that my car is an electrical nightmare which always leaves me feeling vulnerable and defensive when something out of the blue goes wrong with it. The owner gave me a reasonable estimate and even showed me exactly what was wrong with my car. I felt a sense of ease when I left it with him for the day. When I returned later that evening to retrieve my car, it ran great! The owner showed me how to avoid these electrical troubles in the future and even replaced a couple of other minor parts he just happen to have laying around the shop so that this would never happen again. Overall, it's a good feeling inside to know that there are still decent auto mechanics in Philadelphia that keep high standards on morality, ethics and a code of honesty. Thanks again, Dave!

Great customer service, explained everything in detail. Reasonable prices, in fact, much cheaper than my first quote. My car is running great. Thanks Dave!

I think this is the best shop in the Northeast! They did exactly what I requested and even went the extra mile on simple repairs at no charge! Dave takes the time to recall the extra things that i mentioned like my heater. When you you ask for extra naturally you except to pay the extra amount and that makes sense. But Dave just did it!

I found Auto specialties very reasonable and accommodating, I mean really how many auto shops provide rides to and from their facility? My vehicle was fixed promptly and it was at a price I could afford. I did shop around and gathered prices from other near by shops and Auto Specialties offered me the best deal.

I had a slow leak in one of my tires, and without an appointment Dave and his crew were able to fix it quickly. They even buffed out a small scratch around the front bumper. I have taken my cars here for the past 10 years and every time I trust that my car is in good hands and I won’t be taken advantage of. I highly recommend Auto Specialties for all your auto needs.

Dave and his team worked on my car two different times and made it look brand new. During the process Dave would send me updates to ensure that I was kept in the loop through the whole process. I would recommend using Auto Specialities if you ever need any type of body work done to your car.

Can't recommend Dave at Auto Specialities enough! He was honest, trustworthy, dependable, and was so helpful in fixing my car. He had the best prices compared to 2 other local shops I talked to. He really went above and beyond to help me out getting a rental, working with my schedule, and paying attention to every little detail with my car. I am definitely coming back here with all of my future car needs.

Great experience at Auto Specialties! Dave and his crew did a great job replacing the damaged axle on my van. The work was done in a timely manner and was very affordable considering the time and energy they put into it. I highly recommend them for all your automotive needs!

Dave and his guys did an awesome job on my car. I was in an accident and the girl who hit me didn’t have insurance, Dave really helped me out in dealing with my insurance company. They even painted a part of my car that wasn’t hit. Highly recommend this place over the bigger shops, they pay more attention to detail and really treat their customers like family.

My check engine light came on and I noticed there were spots under my car after parking, so there was a leak. I’m not car knowledgeable, so I called a few different auto shops before talking to Dave at Auto Specialties. He made me feel comfortable enough for me to bring in. They found the problems, and other issues, and explained them on a level I understood. They presented me with options which included time and cost and let me make the informed decision rather than push one pricey option on me. Super knowledgeable team and they kept me in the loop. They earned me as a return customer. Highly recommended.

The best around. Owner is professional and courteous and a true expert in his field. Prices are shockingly low with very quick turn around time. They did a lot of work on all my cars and I couldn’t be happier. Hands down it gets no better than Auto Specialties!

As a first time customer I was weary going to a new mechanic for obvious reasons.. Will they get the job done quickly, right, and for a good price. They got both my cars in right away, one for an inspection and oil change and the other for a tire problem. Both were completed within hours and I was shocked by the low prices. Great place!

Dave and his team are fantastic! Ive been bringing my cars there since 2009. I have nothing but good things to say. Reading thru other reviews, I'd like to say *so there are 3 or 4 car businesses in that lot...junkyard? Hardly! It looks like a lot of people use his business!* Also, if i brought my car to a mechanic to have an issue fixed and I had to bring it back once, that'd be enough. Not 4 more times... That's whack! You're probably talking about the 3 car sales places the same lot as Auto Specialties. Dave is a stand-up guy and a great mechanic.
