As long as I’m in Philly I’m go to Ken’s for auto services. I always trust their word and work for my car. Inspection, repairs, oil changes, they get it done and do it well. The koi fish make for a nice surprise.

If I could give this place 0 stars I would. Dropped the car off at 11am told us to come back around 1:30-2pm. Came back and they did not start it until we arrived.

New to Philly, had to pass safety check 2004 Toyota Prius for PA plates. Read the reviews and they did not lie! Ken’s team is one of a kind, well oiled machine.

They have recently updated their hours for booking (oil changes at least to my knowledge) to be between 9-11 am on weekdays.

Ken’s Auto really did their thing. Straight up Scotty and Psy are top-tier service writers.
