Lancaster Starter Alternator in
Lancasterville (PA)

EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE FIVE STAR SERVICE If you are looking for a friendly, professional and motivated shop- this is it! Bart, Chuck and their team are technologically knowledgeable, courteous and genuinely appreciate their clients! Family owned shop in business for a very long time. We had brought them a 26 year old Bosch alternator from a European version BMW M5. Bart had assured me that even-though there were certain technical differences in parts compared to the USA versions- that they had access to their own extensive parts inventory both in house and from their vendors. This unit was disassembled immediately which shows how serious this shop is about turnaround time! Along with an upgrade for increased output and a modification to allow for a current version rectifier being used, the components were cleaned in a sonic tank and reassembled BETTER THAN NEW! We received excellent communication throughout the process along with photos! This facility was clean and well organized. We were fortunate enough to receive a 24 hour turnaround time and although that may not be the case for everyone- it was clearly obvious that team at Lancaster Starter & Alternator Service makes every available effort to help everyone in a timely manner. If you are a repair shop struggling with parts availability for new or remanufactured units, high cost for replacements- or even an individual trying to get a reasonably priced rebuild done by a LOCAL SHOP who supports LOCAL JOBS- this is clearly the place to go. Bart was also kind enough to show me one of the modern Dodge eTorque Motor Generator Units that they are able to rebuild both at a substantial cost savings compared to new- and with bearing upgrades to correct a common failure point. Regardless of where you are located, you should feel confident sending your parts here for rebuild!

Very friendly place and helpful

Fantastic job at doing three starters quickly. Even one that was supposed to have been rebuilt before but wasn't done correctly. Will be back

Great service. Bart took the time to search and find parts for my 56 year old Bosch starter motor. I will be giving them my busisness whenever I can. He also let me know they sell batteries. This is where I will go for replacements from now on.

Fantastic service and quality products. Very knowledgeable staff helped my diagnose vehicle charing system over the phone. Bought my alternator from them. Only place I will go from now on for my vehicle needs.

I drove an hour and a half to get here. It's seemingly the only place I could find in the tri-state area who offered to help us. They were a WEALTH of knowledge, went above and beyond to help me figure out what I needed. Anyone who operates machinery or farm equipment should have this number in their back pocket.

This guy's are the best I been trying to find an alternator for my car couldn't find one I gave them a call an went not even 10 mins they had it very friendly very professional 5 Star all the way

Was in a pinch and needed a new power plug for an alternator I bought online since my old module was hard wired. Called in to see what they could do right around closing time and they said bring it in and they’ll get me hooked up. Gave me a custom cable sized exactly to my needs and detailed instructions on how to install. Great guys and great service

I had amazing help here the guy that helped his name is Bart he helped us out a lot and solved our problem I totally recommend this place

Great experiences with this local business. The guys at the counter are knowlegable and friendly. I brought a more unique starter that they immediately recognized and offered to rebuild. I asked for a rush and they offered to do their best. I received a call back that it was finished less than 24hrs later! Price was good and I would definitely go back. Thanks again LSA!

Everytime i bring stuff here for the work vehicles and equipment they are super helpful and they eithers have a replacement for us or they can rebuild what we have.

Had a great experience with them, Bart went above and beyond to help me out of a sticky situation with my project car and making something work for my application

Great guys, and always willing to help you out, can't ask for any better service!!

I had good experience first time last year. I called Friday about buying a new delco remy alternator. Said has in stock. So drove up today and the man was different then last one I Had dealt with. Said don't sell new ones. And had bad attitude. So 2 hours wasted but lesson learned. I'm sorry to have to leave the truth on here. Owner probably won't be happy about it but lies and rudeness need addressed.

Thanks guys I bought a remanufactured starter from advance auto and it didn't work. So I took it in and they quickly tested it and it was indeed bad . So they sold me a brand new starter for 80 dollars cheaper than advance auto. It works flawlessly thanks guy's

These guys are awesome. I went in with an alternator that I thought was bad but advanced auto said it worked fine. They tested it, it didn't work at all. I was out the door with a new one in a few minutes. Hooked it up at home and it fixed all the lights on the dash. Swapped an alternator in an hour and 15 minutes including drive time and testing. Fantastic experience.

I walked in to ask a couple questions about rebuilding a starter and an alternator. I didn’t like the guy. He was very brief and unfriendly and immediately picked up the phone when he thought he was done answering my questions. And said he couldn’t rebuild my starter. I walked out and I’m going somewhere else. I called Pequea and they said they can rebuild just about anything and they were so friendly and explained everything.

This is the only rebuild shop I would consider for alternators or starters. Honest and reliable with over 40 years experience. With what is best for the customer being priority, that's how companies stay in business in the long run. I appreicate the expertise of this company.

Just wanted to thank Bart for the amazing customer service he was able to help me get my car back running, and his patience was out this world . I'm definitely gona be a return customer.

These guys always take care of me. Man every time I go there theses guy help me out above my expectations

Extremely knowledgeable helpful and friendly staff. Very quick service, had exactly what I needed and sent me on my way in less then 5 minutes. Also gave me a free shirt. Thanks!

Excellent establishment with and exeptional and knowledgeable staff, who are always happy to help. Service is always quick and of great quality. 100% recommend to anyone who needs their kind of service.

I have never written a review for any company. I'm so impressed with Lancaster starter. The people were so knowledgeable so pleasant. I had a alternator for an S605 AM G Mercedes very rare. They had it in 2 days and almost a $100 cheaper. Than I thought it was going to be. Very impressed

Special thank you to the gentleman who helped my husband change the battery in my car out of the kindness of his heart. He would not even accept a tip. We appreciate all your help and exceptional customer service!!

LSA is awesome! Wish I could give them more stars, they were recommended to me when I had some alternator issues on my truck, & I couldn’t find a replacement. I have since used them numerous times for starters and alternators and I’ve never had an issue with any of the parts I’ve purchased from them, what makes it even better is that they treat me more like a friend than a customer every time I walk in, and even if I had issues with the product I would still go there for that reason alone. Thanks for being so awesome guys and putting out great products!

They seem to stand by their products and do their best to help the customer. I would purchase here again and continue to trust their parts in my car. They resolved my situation very quickly with no trouble, it didn't even take very long. The store is low profile from the street but they are very professional and take things seriously.

Tried to give this place an opportunity to earn my business but after being lied to I’ll never go here, called in to ask about a starter being rebuilt and they blatantly lied to me and said it’s not rebuildable, First of all from a business standpoint, you should never lie to your customers or mislead them but obviously it didn’t matter in this case. I tried another shop and what do you know they rebuilt it with no problems. You guys should’ve been upfront and honest and just say we prefer not to rebuild them, you’d be better of with a new one or something like that, not just lie to sell a new one.
