| - This is a very delayed review, but I feel it's necessary to warn consumers of the shady business practices employed at this Pep Boys (24th Street and McDowell). I brought my vehicle in last May because my a/c was no longer blowing cold air. They (incorrectly) diagnosed the issue as a bad compressor, and quoted the repair at $1,300. I could not afford this repair, so I drove around all summer with no a/c.
On 3/21/16, I'd finally saved enough for the repair, but after reading many bad reviews of Pep Boys (and being referred by a friend to Price Rite Tire & Auto Center), I took my business there. I was treated fairly and honestly at Price Rite, my compressor wasn't the problem at all. I just had a leaky hose, which they fixed. Price Rite also fixed my overheating issue, installed 4 new brake pads, machined my rotars/drums, changed my oil, and rotated my tires. I paid $804 for all of this.
This Pep Boys is either dishonest, incompetent, or both. Just terrible, trying to take advantage of people. Caveat emptor!
