This place operates with pure dishonesty. Even when you arrive with a confirmed diagnosis, they insist on doing their own just so they can charge hundreds of dollars later. They hide fees, deny their own statements, and twist every situation to their financial benefit. Be careful with Julian.

I’m warning anyone considering this shop: stay far away. This place operates like a scam. I came in with an already confirmed transmission diagnosis, but they insisted on doing their own diagnostic. Once they ran it, they told me that if I chose not to repair the transmission with them, they would charge me $850–$1,000 just for the diagnostic — an amount they never mentioned upfront. On top of that, they tried to pressure and blackmail me by saying that if I refused the transmission repair, they would start charging daily storage fees for keeping my car, even though none of these fees were disclosed at the start. This shop uses hidden charges, intimidation tactics, and dishonest practices to trap customers. Do not trust them. Save yourself the stress and go somewhere reputable.

Terrible Experience – Dishonest & Unprofessional I had an awful experience at AAMCO on Rising Sun Ave in Philadelphia. They picked up my car on a Wednesday and promised to call me Tuesday after the holiday weekend. I never got a call, so I had to chase them down myself. When I called Tuesday afternoon, they told me to call back at 3 PM. At 3, they said “tomorrow.” Wednesday comes, and the manager wasn’t even there because of a doctor’s appointment. When I showed up later to finally pick up my car, the manager was eating lunch. He eventually came in and told me a seal broke, and he had to go to the dealership for a new one, but he was still eating lunch while giving me excuses. He even told my sister not to leave because the car would “for sure” be done soon, yet clearly it wasn’t ready. The whole experience was full of delays, poor communication, and unprofessional behavior. To make things worse, my AirPods were stolen from my car while it was in their possession. They registered to that shop’s location for the entire week, and the “Find My” app showed them being moved around before ending up back at the shop. This place plays games, wastes your time, and clearly doesn’t respect customers or their property. I will never come back, and I’d strongly recommend avoiding this location altogether!!!! Like the others said you have been warned
