Trudeaus Automotive is one of the of the most honest auto repair shops in Pittsburgh, with great prices and exceptional service. I highly recommend this place!
I brought my car here for a second opinion after another garage tried to take advantage of me. These mechanics were professional, up front, and helpful. They took every opportunity to explain what everything meant and what my options were. They emphasized that it was important to them that I know what was going on because it would make me want to take better care of my car. It was an incredibly genuine experience. At the end of my service, I was told to call with any questions and I know they meant it because I called back twice and easily got help, and the guys checked out an extra thing for free a couple days after my car’s service. This is the only place I will ever take my car.
I would go out of my way to go to Trudeaus Automotive. I always get the best service, no run around about my vehicle, and Im in and out. They are transparent, honest, good people there.
A few of my coworkers recommended this place and since I lived nearby I took my car here. Its been 3 years probably. Ive had numerous repairs done, inspections, tire replacements, had to drop off my car in the middle of the night. I never had any issues with them. They were always honest, quick, and very reasonably priced. What else can you ask for? I have since moved to the other side of the city but still take my car here.
Most honest shop Ive encountered in the area. Great prices and transparency.
My first time here was phenomenal. I needed a 30k mile tuneup and my first PA state inspection. Fred was very courteous, told me they could turn around everything in a day and that was true! I could also tell that this is a trustworthy shop — I only needed an oil change and my cabin air filter changed for the 30k service. They didn’t change / do literally everything to make more money. My Ford dealership used to charge me $400 for these mileage services. Trudeau’s only charged me about $70. A lot of shops aren’t like that and I greatly appreciated it. My girlfriend also had a similar experience — everywhere was telling her she needed new brakes, but Trudeau’s said they just needed cleaned. Saved her hundreds of dollars that day.I highly recommend them for all your automotive needs. I’ll definitely be coming back for all my car services.
Honest, fair and fast! Would highly recommend using this garage
These guys are nothing but TOP NOTCH. I highly recommend, we take all of our cars to them. They are honest, reliable and really nice. Highly recommend
I cant rave about this place enough. Fair pricing, honest service, knowledgeable and genuinely nice people.
Inspection done right n efficient
The most fair, honest, efficient, reasonably-priced, professional, friendly business Ive ever had the privilege of going to. I am grateful for them and I will be a permanent customer there.
This place was recommended by a friend & was she right! They treated me with respect, told me how I could care for my car since its a little older & I drive a lot, and told me of minor repairs I could so myself & save money. As I was about to leave to pick the car up, they called me & told me they had a coupon online that I could use. Thats service! Im definitely going back, they found a repeat customer!
Very easy to do business with
Just had my inspection done at Trudeaus by Wayne. These guys do GREAT work at a fair price. Fred, the shop manager, was extremely helpful with his extensive knowledge of cars and willingness to share.The work was thorough and top notch and done in a timely manner.All in all, a great experience and I would recommend them to anyone looking for honest, courteous service at a fair price. Thanks guys. Great job!!!
I have 2 awful experiences with them. While the owner is very nice, the work done has been TERRIBLE. I first took my SUV to them after it seemed the battery died but I knew it was more than that after my neighbor and AAA checked it out to tow it there. We said to them it was the alternator and they swore up and down it was just the battery. Got my car back and had to travel. My car literally broke down in another state after just getting my car back from them. Guess what it was? The alternator! After towing it back to them from another state they fixed it. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and had them inspect my car recently. I specifically told Fred on the phone I was hearing grinding noises up front. He swore to me that it was the back brakes and rotors sounding like it was up front. I got it back after dropping a GRAND on my car there for inspection and the grinding noises were STILL happening. There was no way that someone actually test drove it and did not hear it as it happens every single time you brake, so they ignored the fact that it was still making the noises that I brought up as an issue wanting them to look into and fix. He just wanted the car done and gone for the weekend after he kept it for a couple days. I will never be going back there and shouldn’t have after I learned my lesson the first time.
Really great shop. Fred will take care of you.Edit: Second time here. Cant say enough good things about this place. So honest theyll talk you out of more expensive parts. Fast service as well.
Its not common for an auto shop to have 5 stars, but this place deserves it. My whole family has gone there for years with at least 6 different vehicles and every time Frank is amenable, effective, and frugal with his work. You will never be up sold on things you dont need, and you will never be ripped off on the things you do. Theyre absolutely worth your business.
Like the other reviewers said, this mechanic earns all 5 stars on this review. Time after time for years, they took care of our familys cars (and even during times of emergencies). They are honest, very fairly priced, and are great guys.
Professional and timely service. Excellent advice. Good family owned business.
Great service! Fred is always so helpful and doesnt talk down to me. I never feel like I am getting ripped off like in most garages.
These guys really were extremely informative, efficient and reasonable. I had a auto parts store report the code associated with a service engine soon light. They said it was a potential serious engine problem. The mechanics at Trudeaus changed the oil, checked everything else from battery to tire pressure. Twenty seven dollars and forty two cents and I was on my way !
Amazing and honest people! Chris, Wayne, and Fred (& other fam now working there) are the greatest at what they do! Thank you for years of awesome service. L & Alex
Hands down the best mechanics in the county! They are sooooo helpful towards regular customers (even gave us guidance over the phone once to get our car started) only mechanics well ever use. So fair and honest. Best in the Biz!!!
They are great people, very skilled, honest and fair. We never have anxiety about bringing our vehicles there for service!
Honest and trustworthy to do work or inspection on your vehicles
These guys are great! Ive been going here for years and trust them completely.
Awesome mechanics...trust them with everything!
Ive been going to these guys for over 10 years. Wayne, Chris, and Fred are by far and away the best mechanics/crew Ive ever dealt with. Moved 30-40 minutes away and I refuse to find a closer mechanic. I will continue to refer anyone who needs a mechanic to these guys.
Great work, great service.
Very friendly service. Trustworthy is the best word to describe them.
Great place. Great help!
