So I am going to school in Morgantown, WV and a friend and I came to Pittsburgh to go shopping. On our way up, I noticed my car was running a little hotter than it should have been. I have never had an overheating problem before, so even though my thermostat needle was in the red when we got to the mall, I figured I'd add some coolant, go shopping, give it a rest and it would be fine. Boy, was I wrong....Long story short, we didn't get very far before my car overheated and shut down on it's own. I nearly lost control of the car and ended up almost hitting a stop sign and going through the front of Leopardi's large display windows. The car came to a stop where it was partially blocking traffic on Saw Mill Run Blvs and it was completely blocking their driveway. As soon as they saw that we were having trouble (there was steam and hissing under my hood - bad news bears), the owner came out to say he was getting us help and then 20 seconds later the entire staff of guys came running out and pushed my overheated car into the parking lot. Without even asking them, the sent their best guy out to check out my car and see what the problem was. His name is Danny and he is THE BEST. It turned out that I needed a new radiator and all that goes along with it. Thank God they had the parts in stock and installed them immediately! Everyone who worked there was incredibly sympathetic to our situation, was cordial, welcoming, etc etc. I cannot say enough good things about Leopardi Auto Sales. I asked about the trade in on my car while I was there and I can tell you that they will give you a fair price on your used car as well! The cars they have there to sell are all in pristine condition with low milage (I had a look around their lot while I was waiting for my car) and although I did not ask, I am certain they are fairly priced. I am a girl who doesn't know a whole lot about cars and they 100% knew that - and they did not rip me off. They didn't over charge me or try to sell me things I didn't need. True gentlemen, kind hearted staff and honest. If you're in Pittsburgh, go to Leopardi Auto Sales. You will not be disappointed.
