Well, I didn't even bother going in based on the customer service over the phone. I feel that every business is commoditized...almost anywhere can get the same product at a similar price. Service however, is not. It varies wildly from business to business. The arrogance and condescending attitude of the person I had to deal with on the phone was unacceptable. She wouldn't even let me speak, just kept talking over me as if I couldn't possibly know what I was talking about. I've never even bothered writing a review but I was so irritated by this place that I took the time to do so. I can only imagine what ride I would have been taken for if I had actually gone in.

I was looking for a new mechanic as I've had bad experiences with mechanics in the past. Check engine light came on in the van and decided I didn't want to deal with it. Took it in and they found the problem to be the oil pressure sensor. They quoted me $700 more to replace the sensor. I said no, paid the $200 for their diagnostic, took the van home and had the new sensor installed in less than 30 minutes and $50 in parts. I think they mean well but they tried to take advantage of me and take my money. Maybe it was just another bad experience, but I am still looking for a trustworthy mechanic.

Kelton, it sounds like you're saying that if you can perform your own repair and can save a significant amount of money compared to what a mechanic or professional shop would charge, that the mechanic or shop is not trustworthy. After thinking about your review for a while I had my wife read it. After reading your comments her first reaction was "Wow, what a big difference in price!" I then explained to her all the reasons why there's a big difference in price, and after evaluating both perspectives she said I can understand why a professional shop would have to charge a lot more, it makes sense, but if I didn't know everything you just told me I think I'd feel the same way this person does. So, here are some of the reasons why a professional mechanic or shop charges more than what you'd pay if you fix it yourself. First of all, to be able to service the latest vehicles we have to pay for and maintain a state of the art facility. We have to buy hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of tools, equipment, and software. We have to pay a host of government fees and taxes. We have to employ a team of people to answer phones, attend counters, advise clients, and repair vehicles. We have to pay for multiple types of insurance to legally conduct business. The list doesn't end here, it's just the beginning. Our company has been in business for over 40 years and we've always charged a fair, reasonable, and competitive price for the value we offer to our clients. My wife helped me realize that I can't expect all of our clients to have a business owners perspective because they may have never owned or operated their own business and even if they have they may not be familiar with the incredible cost involved in running an auto repair business. I appreciate the fact that you are able to repair your own vehicle and may not want to spend the extra money to have someone else fix it. I appreciate your review because it has reminded me that looking at things from another person's perspective can help me understand why they feel or think the way they do. Please feel free to call me directly if you have any questions. - Richard (Owner) 801-694-7936

Its hard to find a reliable and honest shop but these guys are great! We used to travel from Pleasant Grove all the way up to their Sandy location every time because we loved their service so much. I'm so glad they now have a location in Orem. They almost always have some kind of a deal/discount going on to save us money and they thoroughly check the car out and let me know what really needs to be done or what can wait.

Holly, we're so lucky to have you as a client and we promise we'll work hard to continue to deliver the great service you've come to expect. Thank you for your review and your trust!

We saw this shop come into my parents neighborhood and it looked so clean and professional from driving by. My moms air conditioning stopped working in the middle of August. I called in the morning, dropped off the car and was ever so pleased with the service. I felt informed throughout the process and felt that we were treated fairly and appreciated. It was a great value and we are so pleased with the outcome.

Karen, we're so happy you were pleased with our service. Thank you for being willing to give us the opportunity to help and thank you for your kind words!

Had to have emissions done. Had me in and out in 20 minutes. Staff was very cordial and knowledgeable. Would recommend Steve's Automotive for your automotive needs.

We took our car in for a regular oil change and we were blown away. Not only were we able to use a coupon for a discount, but they also did a thorough inspection. I've never experienced an auto shop going above and beyond like they do here! Their inspection allowed us to get ahead of the game and know everything going on with our vehicle, and how to best take care of and maintain it. They also have a very user-friendly system to show photos and tell us their recommendations for repairs. There's nothing better than having someone to help you be aware of and take care of something before it becomes a problem. They have my trust and I will only go to Steve's from now on.

Aubree, thank you so much for your kind words. We promise to take great care of you and your vehicle and we'll do all we can to prove that your trust is well placed, thank you!
