Had to bring my car in after I had taken it to the Auto parts store they had tested the battery and said it was good so then I thought I was having starter issues so took it in to have it serviced and they ran the service test and did a oil change for me to find out that it was a bad battery after all and not my Starter I was so happy. I guess the Auto parts store didn't hook up the test machine correct so make sure you don't always go by what they say at the auto parts store and if you are looking for a honest quick service place I highly recommend this place he was able to fit me in with in a

They did a good job changing the timing belt component kit on my car for a fair price. They listed every part replaced on the receipt and they were honest about parts they didn’t replace. Great job on the repair, and I am really happy and will be coming back in the future!

I called to get quote for simple repair he had no idea what I was talking about just said dont do those but they do suspension and front end but clueless. When I pressed trying to explain how simple he hung up on me. So because I know what I'm talking about as a former mechanic physically unable to even lift a jack they won't touch it because they can't scam my

Had some small work done yesterday and really enjoyed the service from the Owners still working the shop so I came back to have more service done. They're Christian Business owners andI will recommend these guys to anybody or everybody locally for the precise work and Great service.. I'd say if after 56 years of being in business and still a 4.7 starts out of 5 means Great service...

Got my wife's van in same day and had it fixed before I got off work. They also followed up the next day to make sure there were no problems. Very happy with the service.

Took an Acura MDX to Peniston's for a valve adjustment. If you know Hondas/Acuras, you know they often require valve adjustments when their mileage gets up there. Took it to Peniston's last fall. When we got the car back, it ran like a race car! In fact, we were so impressed with the work done at Peniston's, that we took another MDX in for a valve adjustment last month. Happy to say it also runs like a champ! Not everyone knows how to properly adjust valves. Dealerships are crazy expensive and some techs won't even handle it. Steve Peniston told me the second valve adjustment

I've been using Peniston's since I owned my first car. The most honest and kind garage you could hope for. Best price on parts and labor around too!

Reasonably priced and HONEST mechanics that get the job done. Nice to know there's an honest automotive repair shop nearby that does the job needed and not the job most profitable. Peniston Automotive has my business for front end alignment and repair work.

I've taken several cars to them, always been treated well. They had the best price for replacing the timing belt and water pump on my '92 Lexus.
Its hard to find a company that treats you fairly and I highly recommend using Peniston because they have treated me fairly every time I've been there.

They're pretty cheap, fast, and pretty good. I haven't found a perfect mechanic yet in Wichita but they are the best I've found. They are very honest as far as I can tell. My only complaint was that one time I had my car in for a distributor replacement, and when I drove it the next day it broke down because the guy hasn't installed the distributor correctly. On the other hand, when I took it back in there, they apologized and corrected it free of charge, which at least shows that they are honest.

This place is great. Good old fashioned family run garage. Was in Wichita from out of state and they treated me right. I highly recommend it to travelers. The locals seem well acquainted with it already, which is always a good sign.
