From Gary
Midvale customers have been part of this shop since the day we opened — State Street connects us. Most found us through a neighbor or a family member's recommendation. That only happens when you treat every repair like your name is on it. Around here, it literally is.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to get to your shop from Midvale?
About 10 minutes straight down State Street from central Midvale, or 10 minutes from the I-215 State Street exit heading south.

Yes. Call (801) 930-5454 to schedule — an appointment is required for all service, including oil changes, repairs and diagnostics. Booking ahead means we can usually start on your car the same day.
Can you do everything a dealership service department does?
For repair and maintenance, yes — diagnostics, transmissions, suspension, AC, brakes, and scheduled maintenance on all makes, with the same dealership-level equipment and without the dealership overhead. Recall work is the one thing that has to go to a dealer.
