I have used Strauss Auto on Frankford ave. since I moved to Mayfair 4 years ago. Their prices are fair and I have never had any problems with them. I guess it would depend on how extensive the work would be, but I never felt the were trying to rip me off.

Holmesburg Automotive, located behind Holmesburg Baptist Church on Frankford Ave., is excellent. They are honest and fair. I have gone to them for years and won't take my car anywhere else. It took me a long time to fine a good mechanic that I can trust.

My brother's mechanic was ready to junk his truck because they said it needed a new engine. I told him to take it to my mechanic before he did. Turns out he didn't need a new engine and the repair cost him under $100.00. This was a few years ago and still runs good.

Their address is 7929 Charles St. Phone number is 215-331-0145, if interested. I deal with Ray.

Quality Tires at Holme & Willits. They have never steered me wrong and are extremely honest. There have been a few times when I've gone in and told them that I think the car needs something replaced, and they will look at it and say, "Nah, we just have to do x and it will be fine," and x is like $200 cheaper.
Their work is timely, too. I've never had a car in there for more than a day or two.

Honest Mechanic is a oxymoron, like Honest Lawyer, They don't exist.
