These guys are great — they came highly recommended from a coworker. Got an oil change and a diagnostic, in which they let me know what was nothing to worry about, what could be pushed off, and what was urgent. I am an auto shop’s dream customer because my car is on its last life and I know literally nothing, but the team at Buddy’s was kind, welcoming, and to their word, “We will never over repair your car”. Much appreciated!
Our pickup needed a new flex plate for the starter and Brian and Tim repaired that and much more. They kept us very informed. We felt very cared for knowing we were in great hands. I highly recommend Buddy’s Auto Repair.
We have been taking our vehicles to Buddy’s for over 20 years! They are an honest and trustworthy family owned neighborhood business. We appreciate the 5 star service at a fraction of the cost of our local dealership!
With only a year in Arizona, it’s been hard to find good services. Like one’s I grew up with: friendly, straight forward, and trustworthy. I found all of that and more with Buddy’s. Brought my Subaru in (which has got some hard use and over 100k miles) and Jeremy got me an appointment and inspected it for problems within a couple of hours. Sent me a full diagnostic list with severity of issues and pictures, and then had a phone call breaking down the assessment further, trying to work with me and my limited budget on what to address first. We set everything up and they got right to work, completing it within a day, even with some unexpected snafus caused my the rust and age of my car. And none of that was held against me, Jeremy and the other guy (I’m so sorry I can’t remember your name!) took care of what was necessary and added guys to the job to get it done on time. You get what you pay for, and that’s no different in car servicing. I am so grateful I found these guys, finding good car people is so hard and their integrity, efficiency, and professionalism is so appreciated. I’ll be using them for my cars for as long as I’m driving, and I recommend you do too!
Very pleased with their service. Left my vehicle to have all the fluids changed and had it ready in a reasonable time. No pressured repairs and very nice and professional. Thank you!
