Driving from VA to Pittsburgh and my check engine light came on. Map showed 10 miles to Strite's Auto Service so I drove there. They analyzed engine right away with scanner. Showed thermostat stuck open. They test drove to confirm. They offered to replace thermostat, but also explained that it would be safe to drive rest of the way to pgh and have it fixed there if I wanted. The brothers were really kind and professional and trustworthy. Thank you!
Do not go here unless it’s a last resort. My truck broke down 2.1 miles from this shop and they charged me 166 dollars for 30 minutes of their time to use a code reader and didn’t do any other work. They claim to be a Christian establishment but took advantage of someone in a bad spot.
Almost immediately you are made to feel welcomed. Two hours into our road trip in my 97 Jeep Wrangler my wife noticed smoke. From Mt. Airey to Hagerstown no one would help. When I started losing oil pressure my wife found Strite's. As we pulled in with 0 pressure the team stopped and gave us their full attention. What I suspected was the oil pan turned out to be a bad valve cover gasket. Even gave us oil to continue on our way to MI (since part stores may not have been so readily available should we need one). Made it there and back home to MD with 3 missed calls from Travis- and he just wanted to know if we made it. My only complaint is that I am not closer to this shop. These three young men know what they are doing and and have restored my faith in humanity!
They put a manual transmission in my 06 dodge 2500 and I got it back 5 months ago 0 issues no check engine lights no hack jobs they did a fantastic job highly recommend for any diesel owner that needs any work done
We broke down on our way to our son’s graduation. They got us in right away and replaced the alternator We were back on the road in no time. Excellent service!
Our transmission was overheating, 2 hours in on our six hour road trip. The hills of Pennsylvania were not helping our situation. We drove to the nearest, what we thought was an auto “store”, luckily we stumbled upon these guys and their beautiful garage. I could tell that they worked primarily on diesel, so I was reluctant to ask if they could help out with a little Honda motor. They were able to get us a new cap for the radiator that fixed the coolant pressure issue, as well as provide the coolant. They also managed to hook us up with new trans fluid after topping that off as well. If we didn’t go to that specific store we might not have made it the rest of the way. Luckily, thanks to their top notch service, we made it to Ohio and were on our way back with what seems to be no issue. I would highly recommend this shop over any of their competitors. Thanks Brendle, thanks Travis!
Strites fixed our truck quickly and reasonably priced! Guys were beyond nice and when I told them our concerns on getting it back on the road for business, they rushed it and got it done the next day! Recommend for all your diesel issues!
Had a 7.3 with 297,000 miles finally quit running. Took it to strites for new engine. Or so we thought we was getting a new engine. 29,000 miles later and 2 years 2 months later it stopped running. We had another diesel shop come look at it and they found and showed us that strites did not sell us a new engine. It looks like they used our old one and had it rebuilt. You can see where they spray painted the block and sensors. Some of the sensors are orginal 2002 year parts. Rear main seal is leaking already. Thermostat housing has new clamp below the orginal one still on the hose which is also leaking now. After some testing and scanning we found the high volume oil pump has failed only after 29,000 miles. They put the old torn turbo pipes from airbox back on it. This is just what we found so far. And don't try to talk to them about it. They seem to talk down and sarcastic to you. They was highly referred to us on and after seeing this I wouldn't have them fix my bicycle. As far as promptness they had the truck for 12 weeks.
Strite's fixed a botched timing belt job on my car, and I couldn't be more pleased. Will be coming here whenever I need anything in the future. Highly recommended
I had the high pressure fuel pump fail in my F-250 diesel on the side of the highway after hours. Fortunately someone answered when I called and even tried to help me troubleshoot on the side of the road not knowing what it was at that point. He stayed open and waited for AAA to get my truck there around 8pm. When the diagnosis was made he explained everything in detail and gave me options. He fixed everything by the time he said it would be done AND I had new 60 gallon fuel tank installed since the original one needed to come Down to be flushed. Strites auto is a very honest, knowledgeable and efficient diesel auto repair service. I highly recommend them and even though they are out of my way I will bring my truck there when it needs service.
We were traveling back to Indiana and our car broke down. So thankful Strite’s was the nearest repair center - They were able to get us back on the road quickly. They were honest and reasonably priced - such a blessing!! Thank you Strite’s Auto Service!!
Technician is top notch with diesel engines and their operation. My first visit was very satisfying with all issues being resolved. I would highly recommend Strites Auto Service for all of your diesel repairs.
A loved one of mine broke down last weekend near Strites. They went above and beyond in helping him out during a very stressful time and it is very much appreciated. May God bless Strites Auto Service. I can't thank them enough.
Didn't actually have my car worked on since I needed to take it to the dealership for a warranty issue, but the person who answered when I called was incredibly helpful with helping me figure out the problem and appropriate next steps.
Two hours into a twelve hour road trip, and the flap on the bottom of our car got detached. We pulled into Strite’s, and they took the car immediately and had us back on the road in 20-30 minutes. The gentlemen helping us weren’t just fast, they were also very friendly and courteous. Wish we had known about this spot last time we ran into trouble on the 68!
google doesn't provide enough stars to describe how awesome this place is! They provide honest & reliable service, wouldn't take my vehicles anywhere else.
