A & A Auto Repair

My car was having a lot of problems, making weird noises and it was because of several different issues including my timing belt, wheel barring, engine mount, and a tune up. Frank diagnosed my car and did a wonderful job. Being new to the area I wanted to find a mechanic that I can trust and I went to one before I knew about this one and yea I didn't want them to fix my car. Frank quickly figured out what needed to be done, and got me an appointment the very next morning. Car problems do cost a lot but here they want to make sure you are satisfied and it is affordable. Karina who works at the front desk was extremely friendly and when I came here I felt so welcomed and they made conversations with me and honestly a lot of places don't do that. Will definitely be back here for oil changes and anything else my car may need in the future. My car runs great now, I don't have any more issues and will tell my friends :) Also the location of this mechanic was very convenient. I did my laundry while my car was being fixed, there's also a nail salon right next to the mechanic. And he got my car in and out in a really nice time :) Thank you Frank and Karina and everyone else who works there :)

Quoted me a very reasonable flat price for an oil change. Made an appt. thru Yelp. Came in, honored their quote. Had my brakes checked to and said I still have 30-50% left on my brake pads. Very honest mechanic. Will definitely come back.

My a/c needed repair. It was blasting hot air right as these hot summer days were getting started. I took it to A&A auto, they checked out my car right away and brought me out to the garage to show me what the problem was under the hood and explained it clearly so that I could understand. I really found that refreshing. I needed a new compressor, they quoted me a reasonable price based on what I researched was the average cost. They were able to order one for me and had everything fixed the next day. I've been enjoying my nice cold a/c ever since. Great experience!

I brought my old Honda Crv in for new motor mounts. Price was reasonable so I paid a deposit & made an appointment (parts had to be ordered). After parts were replaced, the Mechanic took me back to look how bad all mounts were and explained the situation. I appreciated he took the time to explain things so i can understand. I would definitely return for my auto repairs in the future.

Took my car to get the AC fixed and they didn't fix it! Now my heater doesn't work and it turns out they took my thermostat out without telling me! Paid for nothing!! Terrible service!

The owner(s) of this business like their Freedom so they have a daily Military and Veterans Discount to those who Serve or have Served as a token thanks to our GIs and we Veterans. A Veterans Discount means a lot to those unable to be employed due to military Service-connected disability as on limited fixed income.

According to Yelp ratings' definitions, 3 Stars is "Ok". That to me is an acceptable rating of a business that does day in and day out what they are in business to do. 4 and 5-Stars to me is when a business goes over and beyond what they are in the business to do. A & A Auto Repair earned 4th star for its Military and Veterans Discount.

While we waited we talked that on this day in history 29 December 1950- Time magazine selected "GI Joe" as Man of the Year. "G.I." was first stamped on many military items. The abbreviation stood for the material from which these items were made: galvanized iron. Later, the definition of GI broadened and during World War I it was used to refer to all things military-related. G.I. was reinterpreted as "government issue" or "general issue."

Soldiers in World War II start referring to themselves as GIs. Some Service-members used it as a sarcastic reference symbolizing their belief that they were just mass-produced products of the government. GI Joe then became a term for US. Service-members. Cartoonist Dave Breger, who was drafted into the US Army in 1941, is credited with coining the name with his comic strip titled "G.I. Joe," which he published in a weekly military magazine called Yank beginning in 1942. In 1964, US. toy company Hasbro, after taking note of competitor Mattel's success with the Barbie doll (launched in 1959), debuted "G.I. Joe," a military-themed line of action figures for children.

June 1944, President Franklin Roosevelt signed the Servicemen's Readjustment Act, which became commonly known as the GI Bill. The famous legislation provided a range of benefits for returning World War II women and men Veterans including funding for college, home loans and unemployment insurance.

1996, Hasbro introduced an armed female military pilot, portrayed in authentic military gear, to the G.I. Joe line of action figures. This female is in direct response to consumer requests,'' said G.I. Joe Marketing Director Karen Lehman. In 1998, Hasbro added a female US. 82nd Airborne figure. She came with enough gear to get a pretty good amount of characterization.

2009, Hasbro released their first G.I. Joe film. It starred women and men military characters.

Summer 2019, a young girl from Arkansas won toy soldiers at an arcade while on a vacation. She noticed none of them looked like her. She had a problem with it and wasn't willing to stop until she saw change. "I've been wanting to have girl army men but there's no girl army men, so it's kinda weird," Vivian Lord said.

She wrote a Northeastern Pennsylvania toy company.

"My name is Vivian. I am six years old. Why do you not make girl army men? My friend's mom is in the army too," wrote Vivian.

Jeff Imel, president of BMC Toys, took Vivian's letter seriously, BMC's Green Army Women figurines became available Christmas 2020, in four different military poses.

"What's been really surprising to me is how many women have contacted me since Vivian's story aired on national television to say they wish they had little Green Army Women when they were children back in the '60s," Imel said.

For Christmas 2020, Vivian got her female toy soldiers in the mail. "It says BMC toys -- U.S. Soldiers plastic army women figures. It says 38 pieces, also it says a kickstarter up there," said Vivian. "And if you notice that, that person in the middle, it used to be a boy but now it is a girl. They changed their logo to a girl," said Vivian.

"I don't think anyone that knows Vivian was surprised about how she went about correcting it. That's her," explained Brittany Lord, Vivian's mom. "She's always been really into justice and things being equal and fair and treating everyone the same."

Among the toy's stances that were at stores Christmas 2021, was a female captain holding a handgun and binoculars and a kneeling female solider holding a bazooka, ready to launch.

For anyone wanting to change the way history has been written, Vivian has this advice:

"Never quit your dream. Keep going until it happens."

My A/C in the car was broken so I took it to A&A Auto Repair to see what they could do for me. They not only fixed my A/C at a very reasonable price, but they also stayed late past their closing time to make sure I had my car for the next day. And that was on top of great, superb service. Abdul was very understanding of my car needs and went out of his way to make sure I was taken care of. All the mechanics were friendly as well. I highly recommend this shop and will be referring my family and friends from now on. Two thumps up!

Plus, they have a mini arcade in their waiting room for guests and customers. Great way to pass time.

I had a problem with my car not starting to finding out my anti theft system wasn't working. They went above and beyond, super friendly and got my car to start running.

My name is Tyrone and I had a wonderful experience here. I have a 2014 dodge Durango and I had some tapping that was in the engine. I took it to the dealer and they wanted to charge me 8500. These gentlemen charged me $1100 to do the repair and it runs just as well as being brand new, I recommend anybody to get any type of service from them. The atmosphere was great they were on time. It only took them a day to do the work and these are my new friends. I recommend my family friends and anyone else to check them out. Great quality work.

Such a good shop. Everyone was welcoming and a lot of knowledge on my car was shared with me from the workers here. Definitely going to be a place I trust bringing my car in if I have any other issues with it.

Great service, honest and reliable. My car has been broken for a week. I took it to another auto repair shop and they couldn't fix it. A&A Auto repair run several tests on it and finally find out what it was, easy to fix. My car is finally working.
Thank you guys.
