Hi Harry,

I recommend Honda Village in Greensburg for Honda service.  I've had
my Civic CRX serviced there twice, and I was satisfied both times.
They don't seem to recommend any unnecessary work.  Last time, I
looked over the mechanic's shoulder the whole time, asking questions
and getting friendly answers.  It was actually kind of fun.  I told
him they had good service, and he said something like, "They say it's
the best Honda service in the PGH area."  Although I'm sure he's
biased, I think they do have a good reputation among a lot of people.
They have different service packages for Honda's with different
mileage.  I had my 30K service done there.  My only complaint is they
took a long time to get my paperwork done at the end.  When it finally
came time to pay, however, they explained my bill in detail.  If you
want, they'll give you a ride to a local shopping mall while your car
is in the garage.  If there's not a water shortage (like last time),
they'll wash your car with every service.

I tend to disrecommend McKean Honda in Pittsburgh.  I stopped there to
see what they recommended for the 15K scheduled service.  It was a LOT
LOT more than what my owner's manual recommended.  I don't trust them.
