Title Service Experts - Lauren fixed an out-of-state title transfer mess in days that MDOT, Hyundai Finance and Runkles kicked around for 22 months. I cannot thank her enough I highly recommend JLS Title services and you can be sure I'll be seeing JLS Auto Repair when I need service. They've won my business! Stay away from Runkles trust me neighbors beware, I give zero stars to that outfit for 22 months of stress and troubles. Go see Lauren at JLS!

Everyone there is extremely kind and professional. I made a mistake and made an appointment too soon for my car and couldn t have what I needed done. They couldn t have been nicer about it although I felt bad! Will definitely be going back in the future.

We were staying at Codorus State Park, when our little '98 Honda had a massive breakdown. The cam shaft bolt broke, down inside the engine, and we had a couple of days of wondering if the car was done for. On the recommendation of another local mechanic (who could not do the repair), we had it towed to JLS.This place treated us right. They were up front about costs, checked in for our ok before every new thing that popped up to be fixed, and they had a certified Honda tech there. We like our Philly mechanic, but JLS was so great that we wished we lived closer.We were able to go home to Philly, knowing our car was in the best hands, and came back out to get it when it was done. Drives almost like it was new.Many, many thanks to Jason, Jackie, Lauren, & everyone who made this such a great experience-- Shani & Myke

They were friendly and helpful. I was kept in the loop about how work was progressing. They listened to me when I explained my problem and took the time to keep checking for the intermittent heat problem until it actually manifested itself.

Have used them before, and were happy with the service until recently. Wife needed her vehicle inspection done. Front brakes failed, okay, never made any screeching/grinding noise but was told it was metal on metal. Alright, I can justify spending the money on new pads for peace of mind. However, when it came down to finding out what brake pads they were going to put on the vehicle, they would not give me the part #. There's only one reason why. I get it, you need to make money as a business. However, don't give your customers an attitude for ensuring quality parts are being used. Found out they used brake pads that I could've bought for 29.99 and charged me $68 for them. Again, I get that you need to make SOME profit. Also, we had an oil change done and they did not reset the oil light or give an oil change reminder sticker. How petty. I've recommended these guys to others but will not going further.

Bought 4 new tires and wheels for a car I purchased, 2 tires came one day and 2 came 2 days later, they fit me right on both days. Mounted and balanced the tires at a very reasonable price. The ladies working up front were very nice. If I cant fix it I'll be back, thanks

I went to Firestone for auto work and they charged me $1,700 to replace a few things in my car. After three attempts to fix my car, my car breaking down as I left the shop, and having to deal with a rental, I came to JLS. It took a few times to fix what Firestone messed up, but JLS did it. In the past 4 months I have been to JLS more times than I count and every time they are courteous, hospitable, reasonably priced, and most important--honest. JLS has me as a customer for life!!

Fantastic local family business. Reasonable rates and great service.Highly recommend for Tags, Inspections and service.My work truck was tagged and inspected. The installed new tires, changed the oil, and replaced the brake pads. My wife's car needed a Catalytic Convertor, struts and tires. We are very happy.

Towed vehicle 70 miles to this shop on a referral. Advised them of the problem. They diagnosed the problem and gave an estimate of $1700. One phone call, and found a shop that would do the same job for half the price. JLS people are always nice, and friendly, but if they don't want to do the job at hand, they will give you an FU price, instead of just saying that it would be better to take it somewhere else..

A month after getting a timing belt service completed at the location my vehicle began to vibrate. I honestly did not think much of it as it was a old car. A year later the vehicle is having some noise from the engine. I was told there was major mechanical issues and the engine was needing to be replaced. I got a second opinion who advised the timing belt tensioner needed to be replaced and the belt had skipped two teeth. The other shop did the work and advised that the tensioner, water pump, and bolts appeared to be from the factory. He did say that the belt was new although a little chewed up. The guy pointed out the green thread lock and advised that was from the factory and said he did not see any other signs of new thread lock. After the second timing belt change in a year the issue was resolved. Could this be a case of one shop just miss understanding the work of the first shop... sure. But after the second repair it was fixed. The people at JLS are very nice and their prices are reasonable, but this experience has soured me on bringing my vehicle back. I am not saying I will never bring one there but I will shop around a little first.

Great people, great service! They have always done work correctly, and in a timely manner. Work is completed on time, and for the estimate given. They were able to squeeze in a last second major repair just prior to a long road trip. Best local shop in area!

If I could give negative star's I would. I took my nissan maxima there almost 2 years ago to have a sensor replaced, everything was fine until about a week or two later when my car completely shut down on the highway. I had to park my car on the shoulder and order a tow truck. The tow took my car back to JLS auto where I was told that my car needed a new motor, starter, trasmission and alternator this would cost about $5000.00. I'm not a mechanic by any means but I have a fair understanding of cars and knew this was fishy. I then had my car towed back to my house where it sat in my driveway for almost 2 years as I had to buy a new vehicle. Today I had my car looked at just to find out the only thing wrong was that both wires to the battery terminal had been loosened. Diagnostic picked absolutely NO CODES. My car is now running fine. The part that disturbed me the most is the works for the fire department as do i and this was made known during the time of service, One of "my so called brothers in service completely tried to scam me" knowing the importance of having reliable transportation smh.

They aligned the wheels on my jeep but didn't center the steering wheel, I had more rotations one way than the other. Told me it was the pitman arm and it needed turned on the steering box. Went and did it myself and realized the pitman arm could only go on one way and they messed up the adjustment on the tie rod that goes to the pitman arm. Instead of realigning it correctly they tried to get more money out of their mistake.
