Hometown Auto Service in
Conshohocken (PA)

Thank you for your interest and knowledge.

I recently took my car to Hometown Auto Service for a second opinion. A local Honda dealer told me that they were unable to remove a PCV valve that had broken and was stuck in its housing. Since they were unable to remove it they said they would have to remove and replace the engine valve cover and gasket in addition to installing a new PCV valve. The cost for this work was estimated to be almost $900 . The next morning I called Hometown Auto and explained the situation to Mark, the mechanic who answered the phone. Mark listened patiently and then told me to bring the car in so he could take a look. When I arrived, Mark took the car into the shop and ten minutes later he had removed and replaced the broken PCV valve with a new one. No further work was required. Hometown really came through for me with honest and efficient service. Finding a competent and trustworthy auto mechanic can be a challenge these days; especially one that can save you time and money. These guys are true pros – nothing better than someone who knows their stuff and gets the job done right. I highly recommend them.

Called these guys yesterday (1/21) spoke to Dave, real thorough guy by the way told him my car needed to be towed in where as I called other places and they jump in panick mode "wait you can't drive it" actual quote from others meanwhile Dave said bring that over and had me back on the road in less than 24 hours even though I said not in a rush but for sure price was fair for sure I had a guy at another shop tell me 150 for a diagnosis where as let's just say his price wasn't that, not close. Long story short problem fixed on the road again, will recommend. Appreciate yall.

I cannot say enough good things about this shop & the wonderful guys (Dave & Mark) who work there. They are honest, professional, funny and trustworthy. We take all our cars here instead of the dealership bc I trust what they do and tell me what it does & doesn’t need. It’s a pleasure.

Best experience I've had at an auto shop. David and Mark are transparent and reliable. I brought my car in for the first time, and they got me in right away. Their quote was over $1,000 less than what I was quoted at Plymouth Auto & Tire Center down the street. It was a relief to find a team that doesn’t take advantage of women. Thank you for your honesty and quick service! I'll be recommending you to everyone in the area. & Shoutout to Mark for being absolutely awesome at his job.

Awesome job, highly recommend. Got an inspection appointment quickly, they didn't try to get me to do any repairs I didn't need, they just did the inspection properly and also in a timely fashion for a good price

Always on time and prices are the best!!! These are honest people. They have never tried to over-sell me.

Great service and friendly staff. One of the best in Conshohocken area you definitely want to try when you have a car problem.

I brought my corvette in to get some work done. They did an amazing job at a great price.

I wanted to shout out a local business who helped me in a jam yesterday! On my way to the train station, and subsequently backtracking because the road was blocked off, I ran over a fallen tree branch that got lodged in the undercarriage of my car. I tried getting it out by the side of the road but it was really stuck. I slowly drove, dragging the stick along, to the garage at the top of my street but they didn’t have anyone to help me until 8:45am (it was 7am). I drove the second garage and they were awesome! I am shouting out Hometown Auto for not only getting the branch out (they had to put my car on lifts) but doing it in 10ish minutes. And they didn’t charge me anything. Just did it because it’s good to help people. We go here regularly for our car stuff because they’re efficient and honest. And now because they’re good people.

Mark and Dave knock it out of the park. Willing to get us in right away. The Work is professionally done and on time. This place feels just like it sounds "Hometown Auto" down to earth and real. They don't hold back they tell you how it is and I respect that. I wouldn't trust any other shop to work on my vehicles. Thank you guys.

Very knowledgeable, friendly, helpful staff. Used them for 18 months now. They take the time to answer questions and provide valuable information. Much appreciated!!!

I was having trouble changing my brake light and Hometown Auto was super helpful! I was seen immediately and the problem was quickly fixed. 10/10 would reccomend

They can usually get you in the same day or morning after and are reasonably priced. Always do a great job and are super quick!!!!! 100% recommend

I’ve been to a few mechanics in this area and have found this one to be by-far the best. They make the effort to fit me in and get my car back to me when I need it, are honest and have the best prices I’ve found. 10/10 would recommend!

I heard a scrapping sound coming from my brakes. I brought the car in first thing without an appointment but they took care of me. In at 730am, they called me with a diagnosis at 10am, picked it up at noon. Can’t say enough about your work ethic and I appreciate the help. Thanks again

My Equinox LTZ (62,000 miles) needed an engine repair. The dealership wanted $140 just to diagnose. I called Hometown (where I get my oil changed regularly - best price in town) and their diagnosis price was $50. Dropped off my car, and in the 15 minutes it took me to walk home, I had a text message from them with the diagnosis and the cost. Bill total came to $240 and I picked my car up an hour later.

It was a last minute after my surgery and realized I need to get my inspection..call Don and asked if I can come in this morning and I did..Dave and Don took care of my inspection in an hour..thanks Don!! Great service and good honest guys

They have always been so up front and honest with me. They do really good work on my car.

Felt like I was overcharged and that was confirmed when I talked to my sister who is a mechanic and other mechanics in the area for an estimate just a few days before coming here.my sister checked my car a few days before and there was nothing wrong with it. By then it was too late because I felt like I might as well pay for it since you pay whether pass or fail . Was told originally that the total would be $116 for oil change and inspection event tho inspection is $50 and oil change is $20 so I thought maybe it was for labor . but got a second call that my light bulbs were out for 3 sides of my car and told that it’s not a big deal but that I had to pay for that and the tag lights or I wouldn’t pass inspection which didn’t sound right because my lights were fine and working and no check engine light or nothing. He then took it upon himself to charge more by clicking my front bumper in place since it’s a little loose which he didn’t tell me about until I got my car back and saw the receipt . I get that it’s the holidays and everyone’s trying to get their money but the lack of integrity here is why I won’t recommend and won’t be returning. My sister graduates Lincoln tech school in February so will have an official in family and won’t need to do this anymore . Total was $145 for an inspection and some lights and that only cost about a few dollars in the auto store.

Such friendly people! Work hard and fast! Are honest and dont try to rip you off. They have taken great care of my cars a number of times and I will keep going back!

Great service and flexibility. I brought my car in past their preferred drop off time (7:45am), and they were able to fit me in. They could have turned me away, but they didn't. I really appreciate their flexibility!

Took my car there for warning light issue recently, and they worked on diagnosing for quite some time. They offered suggestions without pressure. While I live over 50 mi away, I will return for the honest and decent approach towards customers. I am particularly grateful to Dave for his time and effort.

This place is fantastic. Everyone that works there is so friendly and professional. They have great hours. I've never waited more than a day to get my car in their for service. They explain everything very well and don't make you feel stupid when they do! They were able to fix a problem on my car that my dealer said couldn't be fixed. I've been going her for over 3 years and I plan to keep going for a long time.

Guys at Hometown Auto are the best!! I took my old jeep there many times and they always were on top of their game - professional, quick, and willing to negotiate a bit too, when a price was high! Repairing my car never took them longer than what they estimated and they never found "hidden surprises" either! I trust them 100%

I agree with a previous comment that this place should be ashamed of itself. I took my car in for an oil change and then received a phone call saying that one of the struts was leaking and should be fixed for a cost of 450$ and then they would need to do an alignment afterwards for an additional 150$ for a total of 600$. I decided to hold off on that and have my uncle take a look at it since he works in the business to find out that nothing was wrong with the struts at all. So please learn from my experience and if they try to rip you off by making up some false problem with your car costing you a lot of money, think twice and have someone else look at it. I would not trust this business and they will no longer be getting my service for anything.

This place is shameful. Do not recommend. Took my car in for an oil change and they told me that oil was leaking into my spark plugs. Tried charging me $400 for spark plugs and a valve cover. Had the car checked out by another mechanic who said there was nothing wrong with the car at all - no leak and that this repair doesn't cost nearly $400. This place is shameful. They lied about the repair and the cost, probably thinking they would take advantage of the fact I am female. I will never go there again.
