So the best thing about the owner is he speaks to you and abuses you for no reason without even listening to a word you have to say.I will recommend a business who does not know how to treat people.

I brought my car here to fix the air conditioning. Paul responded promptly and explained the entire repair process to me. After waiting about 30 minutes, my car air conditioning starts working again. Paul you saved my life! thank you very much.

Pete, the owner, is a great guy! Very honest and straightforward! I've sent many many people to him over the years and I've never had someone be upset. His prices are reasonable as well and can get jobs done fast

Pete, the mechanic that runs this shop, is the main reason my car has been running for more than 25 years. He fixes what you need, he doesn't fix what you don't. He fixed my wife's old truck for about $200 when another chain shop in town quoted her at well over $1000 for it. In addition to being a good, honest mechanic Pete is also a great person. Since we've moved away from Tucson I've called him up for advice a couple times. Not only has he given me great advice on car maintenance but he also remembers who I am years later! I can't recommend this business enough.

I've taken my car to Pete for over 10 years - he has helped myself, my kids, family and friends repair and give honest diagnostics and opinions of cars we have wanted to purchase! Is he the cheapest? probably not... The best? Absolutely! He stands by his repairs and often has given me advise that has saved me hundreds of dollars that well outweighs any expense I may have incurred in the past. Thank you Pete and Mike!

I have a car that needs a lot of work, been coming here to get it done a little at a time. Pete and his crew are always ready to get it done and always exceed my expectations. And what they are not equipped to handle, they recommend someone almost as good.

Pete at Desert Auto is not only a very knowledgeable mechanic, but also honest. He provides professional advise on whether a problem must be fixed, options and a suggested method to proceed. I can't count the number of times I've told something needs to be fixed (at another shop) and Pete advises to wait or that the problem doesn't exist.In over 20 years, after a 'long-trip' inspection I have him do, I have never been stranded - NEVER! You bet I trust him!

Pete fixed my brake issue. Had someone else do my brakes and they were making a horrible noise. He was able to fit me in and had the issue fixed within a couple of hours.

I've been taking my vehicle to the guys at desert auto since a friend introduced me. Pete runs one of the most honest, fair and quality shops I've seen.
