My Review by deidrec2063687976 via Citysearch on 9/24/2015
I took my car here and was very upset with the service. I had a flat tire and ended up needing new tires. I had to wait over 3 hours of the tires when they told me it would be an hour. I then had to go back the next day because they did…
Great Employees by Lee M via Insider Pages on 8/13/2012
The employees at this Pep Boys were extremely friendly and they helped us with everything we needed. They also mentioned that my alignment was off which ended up saving me some money.
Friendly people who work quickly! by Terry G via Insider Pages on 7/29/2012
They've always found the issues that needed to be fixed, they are prompt and courteous. Both my daughter and I have taken our cars to Pep Boys and never had an issue with them and everything is completed in a timely manner. They also work…

Completely Unsatisfactory by Resident Z via Insider Pages on 1/29/2011
I have worked in both customer service and in 3 different auto body shops and Pep Boys has the worst customer service and work I have ever seen. They tend to try to get as much money out of you as possible so be cautioned if you are…
Changed my Tire...FREE! by Resident P via Insider Pages on 12/8/2010
I have to say that Pep Boys really helped me out with a flat. After 45 minutes of trying to change the flat myself...I drove the car in at 4:45pm with the flat tire and asked if they could throw on my spare to get me home. I have an hour…

Pep Boys is the WORST by Peter G via Insider Pages on 5/10/2010
My Jeep broke down outside State College coming back from Pittsburg PA. I had the car towed to the Pep Boys in State College at 4:00 PM. The manager promised to look at the car the same day. Three hours later we were told that they were…
My Experience with Pep Boys by Walt H via Insider Pages on 9/30/2009
My Jeep broke down outside State College on the way to the Penn St./Temple game. I was towed to the Pep Boys in State College. The staff was very professional and helpful, they were great to us! They found the part, and knowing we lived…
Pep Boys is HORRIBLE by Prabhasa R via Insider Pages on 8/14/2009
I was charged $52 for a A/C diagnosis that was inconclusive. They could not fix the problem themselves [of course, having failed to even identify the problem!]. I was not told that not being able to fix the problem was a possible outcome.…
STATE COLLEGE RESIDENT by Todd C via Insider Pages on 4/19/2009
I have lived here all my life, and State College residents know NOT to take your vehicle here.\r
For some reason, I did, though.\r
I needed new brake pads and took it here because there was a sale.\r
First, the service dept staff is…

Service Department by J N via Insider Pages on 11/21/2007
Our cars fuel pump went out while we were vacationing in PA. Pep Boys took excellent care of us. We dropped our car off on Saturday night 8 PM and it was fixed by 1 PM the next day. We were afraid since we were from out of state the price…
Pep Boys - State College by Dan C via Insider Pages on 9/3/2006
There are some real professionals and stand-up mechanics at Pep Boy of State College. I took my car in there one time because my whole panel was electric and it went out one day. Well, I did not know much about cars then and did not even…
