What clients say about Karl's Auto Repair & Services in Indiana (PA)
As a former mechanic who's grandfather has a shop has 4.9 stars with 70+ reviews 5 stars. Respectful and listened to what I had to say. Very reasonably priced. I wanted both inner and outer tierods replaced but after inspection assured me that only the one outer that I already knew about should be replaced due to the fact the old parts were still completely fine. They could've taken advantage and made more money but they were honest.
Really positive experience!
Karl's Auto Repair is a place you can trust.
Karl was checking for juddering and he explained what was happening..it was normal for my car..
Karl is very honest and upfront. He's a great mechanic and is excellent to deal with. He has always done right when fixing my cars. I highly recommend him and his staff.
scheduled an appointment for car inspection, came in around 1:03. couple minutes late, then i had to find my registration and car inspection online so that took about another 5 minutes. they didn’t mind at all and finished inspecting my car at about 1:25-1:30. i was in and out. definitely recommend and their price is way more cheaper than any family owned car shop from my home town.
Took my car for issues I was having with brakes. They had the issue fixed within a few hours and charged me 1/3 of a quote from another shop. Would recommend the shop to anyone in the area.
Stop searching and just go here. Have a kid in college in this town who had a mechanical failure. Fix was above my pay grade, so needed a hand getting him in the road. After reading some of the reviews I thought I'd give the shop a shot. Karl got us out of what could've been a holiday wrecking situation. Fix was fast and very fair priced.
I had the best experience here! My mom actually pointed Karls out to me especially after seeing how good his reviews were. I was super nervous about going to a new place 4 hours away from home but Karl was so sweet and super helpful 11/10 thank you so much!!!
I noticed I had been having coolant leak issues with my 2004 Volvo S40 after fixing an an oil pan leak I had as well. I’m a student at IUP and away from home so I wanted to find someone reliable in the area and someone I know who wouldn’t try to just scavenge any dollar they can off who they think is vulnerable. I did a little research and found Karls place. I walked in and immediately knew that they were gonna take care of my problem. Walked in, made an appointment with the very wonderful lady at the desk. Eventually got the car looked at, got the problem addressed, got a reasonable price to fix the problem, and an appointment immediately. Couple days later I brought my car in and they had it done in the time manner they said they would. . I recommend these guys, they will get you right
This is the 3rd time we used them and they are amazing. I went in thinking it was one thing costing $750 and they found that it was something else and only charged me $200 when I would have never known the difference. Trust is worth way more then they charge and they are reasonably priced as well
Was given a recommendation to go here after another garage told me they couldn’t do anything for me and said to go to a dealer. Karl was very nice and fixed my issue in a timely manor and at a very fair price. He fit me in when I didn’t have an appointment and kept me informed about what he was doing with my truck. Highly recommend Karl’s garage. Wish I could give more than 5 stars
As a parent of an IUP student, we had a situation where our vehicle was in need of quick repair to get our child home in time for Thanksgiving break. Karl and team took the jeep in and repaired in less than 24 hours. The pricing was great as was the service. In these situations it can be nerve wracking to utilize a shop you have never seen and know nothing about beyond Google reviews. I encourage anyone, and particularly, IUP families to use Karl's!
My daughter's Subaru is rather old and has had it's normal repair issues due to the year it is, but has been a great car for her so far. We keep it maintenanced and stay on top of any repairs needed. I googled garages in the area just before she started school out there and decided to send her to Karl's for any issues she may have. I just want to say, this place is wonderful, reliable and gives great service! What a god send this place has been I don't have to worry because I know they are there to help her! Thank you so much for your service and kindness!
They did a great job. Trust worthy. Honest people. He is employee I knew from a previous repair shop that worked on my cars before he worked for a shop that the owner passed I was glad to see he worked for Karl
I went here this morning to get my tire checked due to it being slanted. Karl was very helpful and kind. I will now be switching to this mechanic to get my oil changed due to the service I received today!
Karl's Repair was awesome. My sons truck broke down and I couldn't get to repair it. I was able to call Karl and he made time to fix my sons truck and was very fair and affordable. I would definitely recommend his business. Thank you Karl
I took my car to Karl’s several times over the course of the 2 years I lived in Indiana. Karl and Ed are good guys and Ed was always especially helpful! Sometimes they took a little longer than expected, but they also don’t have that many people working in the shop. Definitely recommend!
Karl's Auto came through for me in a clutch. I was getting multiple quotes for a repair that others claimed to be $300-$600 Talked with Karl's and gave them the OBD codes pulled. They got me in a day earlier than expected, and i was relieved when they called me and with confidence stated they discovered the problem and could be fixed in just a half hour. They got me back on the road, and in the end, my bill was $109. It takes a lot for me to trust a mechanic, but the service and professionalism offered by Karl's was beyond anything i expected.
Everyone was very friendly and helped me out without talking down to me. As a young woman, that's happened far too often when I take my car in to a garage, but not here! I will be coming back every time I need repairs done for now on - though hopefully that isnt too often!
AWESOME experience. Being a college student away from home I've been jipped more than a few times by mechanics when things go awry with my car, but this couldn't have been a more different experience. I chose Karl's because the reviews looked good on here and I'm so glad I did! Not only was it a personal exchange, but my car was quickly and efficiently done for a very fair price. I would encourage any and all college students to take their car here, I know I'll be back for any issues with mine for the rest of my college career. Thank you Karl's Auto :)
Karl and company have always done us right - I'm a small business owner and know how to treat my customers, and I know the value of my repeat customers. Karl does too! 'great service, honest and high integrity is always experienced, ever since I started going there for service - 'and all at a decent price too! Thanks guys for being there for us all! Al
Found Karl and Ed when we moved into the area from Eastern Pa 4 years ago. Haven't gone to anyone since-knowledgeable in their profession and price is right for their labor.
Very friendly and helpful staff. They seem very experienced and trustworthy. I haven't found an auto repair place I can say I trust around town until I dealt with them. Would recommend to anyone and will go back in the future.
I may be biased because Ed is my dad and Karl is his cousin, but I'm not lying when I say you won't find better mechanics in Indiana. They are both honest snd reliable. Many of my friends have needed them in a pinch and they always pull through. I used to say, you don't need AAA if you have ECM (Ed Markel)! And the same goes for Karl!
