West Chester University uses this garage when they tow parked cars. My car was badly mishandled by this company and they refused to cooperate. I will be sharing photos to their "Visitor Posts" which they'll will probably take down, but wanted to warn people against using this garage. If they cannot accept responsibility for the damage THEY cause, can you trust them to handle your car's needs? read more

Very happy with my service here. I had a small problem that I didn't know how to fix myself so I took it into these guys based off of a good recommendation from a friend and wasn't disappointed. They were very upfront about exactly what the problem was and what they were going to do to fix it. They didn't try to talk me into other maintenance, just fixed the problem I presented them with. The price was also a lot lower than I expected. I'll definitely be coming back here for future maintenance. read more

We have been going here for many years and have always been pleased. They are very good with their ability to fix things rather than simply resorting to replacing them. Their prices are very fair and they have helped us out many times over the years. Just today they came up with a solution to fix the heater in our car and only charged a half hour labor. Most garages only charge labor in full hour increments. I highly recommend them. read more

When we moved, we knew we'd need a new mechanic. My wife has a job that requires her to be on the road for many hours each day, and it feels like we need car service weekly. One day after getting gas in my Jeep, it wouldn't start. We called Young's since they were local, and I thought for sure we'd need a tow. Within minutes, the driver was there, looked at my Jeep, tightened a loose battery cable, and I was on my way. I ended up tossing them an extra $20 bucks for being so awesome. We've been coming here ever since. They have a very competitive labor rate and have always been very upfront with us regarding repairs. They always let us know what our cars needs, will need, and what it can go without which lets us budget things and plan accordingly. We've been there at least a half dozen times this year for various service and repairs. They've always been fast, friendly, and done great work. read more

Absolutely ridiculous. Car was towed late on Friday. The website said closed Saturday/Sunday. Went in Monday & was told I had to pay an extra 30$ a day (60$ for both days) because that is their fee. How is someone obligated to pay those extra fees when your garage is closed? Deceiving, dishonest & down right wrong. Young's Garage should be ashamed of theirselves and should think about changing their schemes that are clearly solely money focused. read more

Dishonest. Took multiple family cars here. The bill for each car was always a minimum of $500 to pass inspection. I became suspicious and declined service, took car to another garage and passed inspection without issue. Asked other garage about issue and they said it wasn't an issue whatsoever. Avoid. read more

History

Established in 1960.

In 1958 Dave and Ruth Young purchased 8.4 acres of land from Ruth's father Ralph Passmore with a dream of some day starting their own business. In January, 1960 with $100 cash and $300 borrowed for an air compressor a little piece of that dream became reality when Dave and Ruth Young started their own business called Young's Garage in the basement of their home. Dave worked the mechanical end of the business doing repairs and state inspections while Ruth picked up parts and scheduled appointments using their freezer as a desk. Eleven years later in June 1971 their dream was complete with the business incorporating and moving to 1022 Lenape Road (Rt. 52) from under their home. The original steel section of the building measured 75' x 40' and was built by Jack Alexander. The fill for the garage came from the crossroads at Birmingham and Rt 52 when the intersection was reconstructed eliminating a steep incline. The summer of 1979 expanded on the family owned business with a new

I was given a time interval for arrival, and the driver showed up right on time, came to my house, drove me to my car, and freed it for me. What started as a horrible afternoon, turned into a great experience when all was said and done. While I hope I don't need this service in the future, it's a relief to know it's there should I need help in the future. I highly recommend Kenny's West Chester Towing!!

In fact, the other insurance company's agent explained everything to me more than my own insurance company did. I started to be proactive and googled repair shops and came across Wright's. Best decision I ever made. I contacted Coleen and she REALLY explained everything to me. Instead of going with the repair shop (Service King) that the insurance company wanted me to go with I went with Wrights. I made the appointment to take my car in and they were ready for me. Coleen told me it would take 4 days to repair and it took exactly 4 days, no more. I had to get a rental and Coleen also explained how that worked. This company is extremely professional. Coleen advocated for me when my own insurance agent didn't. If Coleen could be my insurance agent I would switch to her. My car was repaired and looks perfect. Can't even tell the car was in an accident. Before you make any decisions on who is going to repair your car, even if they are a few dollars more than what your insurance company is will to pay, please contact Coleen. Your car will be returned to you in mint condition.

This rating is not based on their service, as I was unable to take advantage of that. Instead, this…read morereview is for their communication, or lack thereof. I have been trying for months to reach this business by phone, and have not had one phone call returned, despite leaving a couple of messages. I finally decided to try reaching out through Yelp. I thought that I'd finally made some headway, as shortly after filling out the form, I received a response with a list of their services and their prices. But it turns out that was merely an automated system response. Where it gets worse is I responded with the service that I would have liked. . . But crickets. Even though Yelp showed that my message was "Read". I gave them a few days, assuming that they were just busy. But I can't believe that a business can be so busy as to not provide at least an acknowledgement. My final communication was reaching out to thank them for their initial automated response and mentioning that I assume they have no availability. And again. . . crickets. The final straw was the notification that my message on Yelp had indeed been received and "Read", yet still ignored. I really wanted and tried to support this women-owned business, but I am extremely disappointed in their lack of communication. Reply to Business Owner's Response: A quick search of my cell phone's call history shows that I did in fact call the correct number. The screenshot below shows that I have been trying to reach out to you since May 2025. And if you look closer, you will see that each of the icons are outgoing calls. Not one call back was ever received from you, despite the voicemail messages that I left. Additionally, I still have my landline, so a couple of calls were also made using that phone number. However, I don't feel that it's necessary to provide a screenshot of those call records. After my last call of October 28, 2025, I finally reached out to you through Yelp in November 2025, which leads us to this review. Thank you for your response to my review, although I wish that I could have received a proper response outside of this forum. Good luck to you in the future.

I have been going with these guys for several years and I can tell you this is an honest, family owned business. They try to deal with all kinds of issues the best they can, just really the old school style which I love! OK, if you are looking for fancy ways to be accommodated while waiting, like spacious room, free coffee, large TV, comfortable chairs and sofa, free Wi-Fi and so, this is definitely NOT your place. I know these are essentials for some people, so I understand if they would take several points / stars off for not having them. But I personally prefer rating people, not that much the surroundings. Their prices are very fair, and in case you had all those fancy treats that I mentioned, you bet this will be reflected on the bill, just no other way to do it. Also, I see here some bitter complaints about their towing practices. True, they work with West Chester University - to enforce the parking regulations on the campus, and thus I imagine they could be tough sometimes on that. For such a business this is an important source of income, and they certainly want to be maximum efficient and maintain their contract and relationships with the nearby school. On the other side, and here is my own experience with their towing some 5-6 years ago. My old car just got stuck on one of the University parking lots there, on the main campus in a gray, January winter day (I think it was still winter break for the school). Some small electronic component, that apparently had gone out, so that the engine and systems could not initiate any cycle - i.e., it ignited for 5 secs and then was turning off... The campus police guy recommended me Young's people and they came in quickly, took care of everything in a very professional manner and very fast! Work, repair, replacements/parts and the towing itself - all together, wasn't exceeding $ 250-60, which I think was very fair! read more
