Rocky's Auto Repair Llc

Nov 30, 2024

as someone who doesn't know much about cars, i've been in situations where i've clearly been ripped off/taken advantage of in the past. after a friend mentioned they used rocky's, i figured i'd give it a try. i've gone two times now and i'd never go anywhere else! rocky is so friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. fair pricing, genuine people. definitely would recommend :)

Do not recommend it if you're looking for a trustworthy mechanic who isn't trying to rip you. If you're unsure about the work needed I highly recommend getting at least a second quote from somewhere else. I went in to get my car ac checked out. I was very sure it was a simple coolant recharge issue, however didn't have the time to do it myself. Got a call back saying the compressor needed to be replaced and quoted me $980!! Was even told the car won't run if the compressor doesn't get replaced. Absolute joke. I was able to get the recharge done myself with a $40 coolant from AutoZone.

I called on 9/7/24 looking for somewhere to get my car inspected that day as my stickers expired a week ago and I work Monday through Friday and Saturday was my only day open to do so. I called and spoke to Rocky who said it was no problem to come over and he could do it. I was there 20 minutes after taking to him and the side door and garage door were locked but people were inside working. I knocked on both doors and called at least 10-15 times while sitting parked out front door over a half hour and got no answer. Very bad business practice. Would of gained a loyal repeat customer if the service was good. Ohh well, thanks anyways! Mike C.

Rocky coordinated with me to have my car towed to his place and my starter replaced by 5pm the next day, just in time for me to be able to drive down to the Delaware beaches for a planned vacation with my girl. He truly does care about the customer and will go above and beyond to make you happy with the service. He has gained a customer for life.

The work and price is top notch, but his actual working hours are very different than the posted hours of operation, making it extremely difficult to plan accordingly. Called ahead and was told by the woman answering calls that the facility would be open at 8AM (which I found odd since the posted hours started at 10AM, but given that the inconsistency of hours is a well known occurrence, I didn’t question it), so we drove across town to give our trusted local mechanic our business. We waited until 10:30 and nobody showed up. Another customer had also been standing outside for 45 minutes with us in the rain, as she had also made an appointment that was not honored. I feel it is not unreasonable to assume that a business owner will open their business on time, and this entire experience has been disappointing. I would only recommend coming to this shop if you live right around the corner and have literally nothing planned for the day, otherwise, find another shop that will honor your appointment times or, at bare minimum, their posted hours.

Just had my car inspected by Rocky. The experience could not have been better and the staff could not have been nicer. I couldn't see myself going anywhere else for service.

Electrical problems with my Jeep. Nervous about estimate, but received honest and reasonable quote and car actually runs better than ever!

Exactly what you want and expect from a small mechanic in Fishtown. Sometimes you might call, and no one will answer. You might not know what’s good with your car for a few hours, but trust that Rocky and team will take care of it. Rocky has been nothing but kind to me when I bring my car in, and charges reasonable prices for his services without tacking on anything unnecessary. He even turned down my business and suggested a nearby place that could take care of my tire sooner than he’d be able to. If you’re looking for an online portal and rigid timelines, take your car to a big brand auto body shop. If you want solid work from nice people, go here.

I guess I have to know the owner/mechanic on a first name basis to get any service. This rating is based on communication/expectations not actual work done. My car sat for 8 hours, no phone call or updates.

Rocky is awesome, he does a great job at fixing your car and giving great advice. I always trust what he says. He also does a great job explaining problems in a way that allows me to understand. I've been going to Rocky for years. Thank you!

Rocky is willing to give out experienced advice just to help you out. I trust this place and he has fair prices. Hard to beat.

Good quality service. A bit pricey for my taste but very convenient

Dec 07, 2023

Great service, but don’t expect a rush job. He takes his time but he does good work! Friendly guys and competitive prices!

Dec 07, 2023

No frills no bs or up selling services. I called in for an oil change and tire rotation and Rocky and his partner fit me in the same day! Fair pricing and easy parking outside of the business. 10/10 recommend 🙌🏼

Rocky is a terrific mechanic with fair rates and fast service. He's honest about what my car needs, doesn't try to upsell me on anything, and tells it like it is. I will always recommend his business.

Rocky is the greatest. Love ya bro.

My visit to this mechanic was highly unsatisfactory. Not only did they scratch my rims, but their incompetence was evident in the quality of work. To add to the frustration, they refused to provide a receipt for the services rendered. I strongly advise against entrusting your vehicle to this establishment.

Great shop great prices been coming to him for 5 years now. Thanks Rock

Guys told me that it would take 3-4 hours to get my oil changed, ended up waiting almost 6 and they STILL hadn't even gotten my car and I had to take my car somewhere else. Very disappointing

Dec 07, 2022

They fixed my van extremely last minute and I am so so so grateful. They stayed late to replace my thermostat so I could get back on the road and not wander around town looking for someone to do it at 5 pm. I’m so grateful! I would absolutely recommend.

Dec 07, 2022

Amazing! Thank you so much for fixing my car in my time of need. I will definitely be coming back there.

Dec 07, 2022

Good folks.

Dec 07, 2022

Honest, nice mechanic. Really great for inspections! Thanks Rocky!

I am so disappointed. I live nearby and thought I had finally found an honest mechanic with fair prices, and then I checked my inspection receipt and see that he charged me full price for an emission test that I did not need. Fact - If you have driven your car under 5,000 miles, you do not need a full emissions test. Over the last year, I'm sure many people like me, were either working from home or unemployed, and were not driving their car very often. Rocky straight up told me he charges full price, whether or not you have driven under 5,000 miles, and does the full test. It will be the last time I take my car there, because if he performs and charges me for that unnecessary test (which he admitted to me!), then who knows what else he does.

Rocky is a great guy. Took care of my veloster no problem!
