I was looking for something else on Angie's List and thought to see if Programechanics was on here. Coworkers recommended me to George and his shop 20 years ago now, and I have to say he is the most honest and fair person I've ever dealt with, in addition to doing great work on my cars over the years. He will NEVER try to upsell you, and on many occasions has done the opposite- tells me I don't really need a service I asked for, or knows I can do certain repairs myself and tells me to do that and save money, and provides any advice on doing those repairs. He also always takes the time to thoroughly explain the work needed or performed. I haven't worked near Programechanics for 15 years, but gladly go out of my way to have my cars serviced there. I've referred others to George and they are also extremely happy and surprised with the service and advice.

Tons of car service and repair over the years

The facility is very clean, and the staff is very nice. I usually drop my car off, and then pick it up in the afternoon. They are very good and very honest.

The owner is honest, and a good mechanic, but.... if a simple item is missing for PA inspection, I expect them to allow me to bring them the simple part and not insist on charging for the part and install. Small bracket to hold down battery was missing. When he insisted on doing it his way, this was the last time I went to him for any work.
Description of Work
Auto inspection, found missing battery hold down bracket, and refused to allow me to buy one and install. Insisted that I buy the part from him (at a markup)

I left car at 8:00 AM and it was finished by 11:00AM as promised. All services where done and the owner George Adams went over all the details to completely explain work done. Earlier this past year I had an engine oil leak that normaly requires the engine be pulled in order to repair. George was able to divise a method that the engine not be removed. This repair is now a year old and is holding up perfectly. He saved me $1500.00 by his inqenuity and special technigues. I am completely satisfied and highly reccomend this company

They do a great job. I never had a mechanic sit me down, apologize and go through alternatives for a job that would be costly ($900). I trust that he will be fair with me. His prices are reasonable and work is good. They are also members of a national program that would fix any repair work that fails no matter where you are in the country.
Description of Work
Routine maintenance: oil change, tire rotation, brake and transmission fluid change.

George always calls and tells you in detail what needs to be done, if you have any questions he's always ready to answer, and treats his customers like he knows them for years. I really like taking my vehicles there.

George adam does fine work, and the car was ready when he said it would be. I'd use his services anytime - he's real good, and very fair. He did an inspection and new wiper pump and hoses were installed.
