I would give no stars if I could!!! My car sat for months due to part delays which is not against the shop, but while it sat there my vehicle had the license plate stolen off of it—shop did not even realize, then didn’t take the time to go through the video footage… only to now find that an electronic that I knew was in the car, safely stowed away, was stolen from my vehicle upon return. I only used this shop because it was recommended from my insurance but WARNING I do not advise. Shady area. Poor communication. Lack of trust. Take your business elsewhere.

I've been using Halbleib's for quite a few years, for insurance and private body work, and they do excellent work. On the rare occasion that something needed to be re-done, they corrected it without any disagreement. If you want a fancy, carpeted waiting area with coffee and tea, this is not your place; they are very plain, but they know their repair work like the back of their hand, and are very honest, nice people. It's family owned. They also have their own rental cars. If you don't want one that has been smoked in, you can ask. I won't use anyone else.

Owner is a great, personable and knowledgeable guy. Great staff, they do quality work and give you fair prices. Always a busy place which means what they do they do it well. They offer many services they can do for automobiles and you wont be disappointed. Any needs or repairs you need done, i would surely give them a call first and then go from there. John is the owner and after meeting him for 30 seconds you will see what I mean. Keep up the great consistent work!

These guys really know how to help you threw a stressful situation, not only did one of their trucks show up after being involved in an accident on 51 to help get us off the road and towed, they were able to get us into a rental vehicle while processing our paperwork with the insurance company. Within a week they had us back on the road and looking as good as new. We have since been back to use them for our other mechanical work after having such a great experience. Thank you to John and staff work working through everything with us.

This was a terrible experience for me. I was charged $250.00 for towing my car less than 2 miles and my car was damaged from towing. I was charged storage fees for Saturday and Sunday even though his facility is closed on weekends. I had to pay $500 to get my car out of the facility and it was only there for two days Because they were closed on Saturday and Sunday. I think it is disgraceful to take advantage of people in this way. I have nothing good or positive to say about this business!!!!

I purchased a car from a private seller, and they had Halbleib's do the title transfer for us, which they presumably do for him often for him since they're on a first name basis and the seller buys and sells cars for a living. Halbleib's had allegedly done the safety inspection and the sticker just needed to be put on after the sale. Once the title transfer was done, they told me that the emission test wasn't ready and it needed to be driven more. I opted to drive it around for a week and come back, which I did. When I came back, they told me that the emission still wasn't able to pass the test and to Google the drive cycle for my car and go drive it around. I'm not a mechanic and had no idea what that meant, so I was frustrated, but went and drove around. When I came back, they told me that it still wasn't ready. I asked what specifically I would need to do to pass it, and they told me that I didn't need drive long enough and needed to keep driving. I was already an hour into this, getting increasingly more frustrated with the lack of concrete actions to take, and asked how much longer I'd need to drive. The owner told me that he's "doing me a favor" and if I didn't like it then I could call the PA State Emissions Test Hotline and then told me to go somewhere else. The seller and I spoke, and he told that the owner called and that I could go back after I drove a little longer. Since I left the Squirrel Hill area and drove a good bit to do some errands, I figured I'd drive back down since that should put enough miles on the car for the test. It did not. I drove some more, and it still did not pass after 3 hours of driving around with no instructions from Halbleib's other than to Google it and figure it out myself. Their parting words were to call the seller and make him drive it around. I ultimately took it to another mechanic who drove it around to complete the drive cycle for me within 30 minutes of dropping it off. They also found that the brakes and routers were rusted out and needed replaced so it didn't pass the safety inspection. Halbleib's was ready and willing to put the safety inspection sticker on the car and send me on the road unsafely.

I wrecked my Porsche car. Halbleib automotive came and towed the car. The service was quick and easy. They also provided me with a rental car. All in a one stop shop service. Excellent customer service and service. I highly recommend.

I got a car repaired through insurance here years ago. Returned recently after bumping back into the owner and it's still the same great place. They do really good body work when I had gotten my insurance repairs done here you couldn't tell the car had been in an accident. This was 15+ years ago, I still go here! My most recent visit was for a state inspection. They had an opening in the schedule and got me done and back out in no time! 10/10 would recommend! I also go here for notary/title work.

As a young woman, I hate going to any auto repair shops for any reason. I had a terrible experience at another shop when getting an inspection because the owner tried to tell me I needed $1500 worth of work (more than half of it was unnecessary). Halbleib’s was recommended to me by a friend, so I took my car there. It was seriously like night and day as compared to the other place. Everyone there was nice and professional, but most importantly treated me kindly and the same as they would someone else. I don’t know a lot about cars, but I never like being talked to like I’m stupid. I will definitely return to Halbleib’s for this reason. It’s not about what you can do for someone, it’s how you make them feel. Halbleib’s gets customers for their great service, but keeps them with how they treat you!

My new car was wrecked into, parked in front of my house, the day after I switched the info on my insurance from my old car. Luckily I did get the person's insurance. But my car wouldn't start and her insurance company didn't want to pay for a rental. Halbleib's auto body in Hazelwood took care of me every step of the way! From towing the car communicating with her insurance company, doing the estimates, getting a rental to me and fixing the car to look brand new again. If anyone ends up in my situation I absolutely recommend them 15 out of 10 stars⭐

I went to Halbleib because I bought a salvage titled car and the guy I bought it from suggested we go there because we needed a Salvage inspection and Halbleib does those. I couldn't help but notice how busy and efficient they were but not too busy to where they couldn't get us in and out of there quickly. I got to talking to the owner about another car I had and he knew exactly what was wrong without even needing to see the car. I was expecting to pay around $500 for the fixes I needed but to my surprise he only charged me $200. I am thoroughly impressed with the work they did and will continue to make the 45 minute drive there for future car needs. They are worth the trip. They are the only place I ever came across that does both mechanical and auto-body with a full service notary inside. I was thoroughly impressed overall and highly recommend them

Great work, efficient, staff is friendly and professional. We brought car in with front bumper coming off and grille damaged. Mike looked at it within the hour and gave us an estimate. After we agreed, he told us when it would be ready (in about a week). It was ready when they said it would be and it looks great!

First of all like many other reviews listed here my fiance and I were in an accident and like an ambulance chaser the tow truck driver from this company was on the scene before police or anyone else. He said he would tow our car and take us home . We agreed it was raining and late and my fiancé shattered the windshield with his head so he was very dazed. Once dealing with the police, the tow truck driver took us home and gave us his card. When we called the next day and asked if we could have AAA to our vehicle to our house until we found a shop they told us that we would be charged for the towing and restoring our vehicle. we find out later that our insurance would be responsible for all of those costs. However, they made us believe that we would be responsible for paying that so obviously instead of paying all of that money, we told them that they could do the work. If they knew that our insurance would cover those costs, they should have. Let us know that instead of making us believe that we would be responsible. That’s a pretty crappy way of forcing people into using their shop. Our insurance sent an estimator out. He did the estimate the shop nor the estimator kept us in the loop. We had no idea what the estimate even look like. they called and said they would start the work and we agreed when we got the insurance check it was for $10,600. We were shocked at the large amount considering only our tire was broken and our passenger door needed replaced. We give them payment and pick the vehicle up and the first thing we see is our shattered windshield. for some reason while looking over our car and fixing it for us they missed the big shattered windshield. Supposedly that was not even in the estimate so they charged our insurance even more to fix the windshield. Also, when we pick the car up to drive it, it was shaking and revving up very high. Our car ran completely fine when we were in our accident nothing was wrong with it so we returned it to the shop and of course what was wrong with it had nothing to do with the accident lol so then we had to pay $375 to fix what was wrong with it and they also fix the windshield but never gave us our inspection stickers that were on the windshield. Just basic normal common sense things that mechanics should know. We’ve had to make at least five trips out there just to get our car back to normal. I do not recommend these people at all. If they show up at the scene of an accident, have somebody else tow your car or be prepared to spend some money we also had a brand new solar powered charger I had received as a gift from my mother for Christmas. We were never able to even use it. It was in the pouch behind the driver seat and it was stolen not even calling and reporting it. We already know they’re not gonna do anything about it. I also see other reviews that people had things stolen from their vehicles, obviously at somebody that works there for it to continue or you need to have better surveillance when you’re responsible for other people’s vehicle vehicles.

This is a regular occurrence in our busy neighborhood. When the representatives of a business disregard basic posted restrictions and obstruct access for people with disabilities, that business is clearly one without worthy standards.

The team here is great, and I can’t say enough good things but I’ll try… I got rear ended a few months ago. Took my truck to them and I was shocked to find out how much of a one stop shop it was. You need a rental?… they have them. I was dreading dropping off my truck and having to get a ride to get a rental but they rent right at the shop. Convenience is a priority to me. Beyond that, they were great and bent over backwards to do whatever they could to help me through all the insurance red tape, the supply chain issues, and even a winter storm that brought shipping to a halt. I was also surprised to find out that they do regular repairs as well as upgrades there too. In the spring I plan to return for some maintenance and a few things I want to get done, and I would even consider a lift kit if it wasn’t for the fact that my bed would be completely unusable at that point seeing as it’s an F350 and already sits so high. I also can’t forget to mention that when I got there to pick my truck up, they had washed it and shined it up. How awesome is that? Lastly, this is an incredibly honest shop as I apparently had a few dollar bills fall out of my pocket once and go down between the seats. They had them sitting their waiting for me. When I saw that I knew that for sure I would trust them with any future needs I may have. Highly recommended!
