I had such a great experience here! My car had a chronic rattle in the back that just got worse on Tucson'a bumpy roads. The Ford dealer told me they would charge me $130 just to tell me what was wrong, and Sooter's charged me only $50 to fix the problem. The staff were great, the office dachshund was a sweetheart and answered all my pet-related questions, and they were done hours sooner than they thought they would be.

Also love that their location is right downtown instead of out in the burbs.

I have been going to Sooters for almost 30 years. The work is great, as are the prices. I have never worked with anyone so honest. Once, after being stumped by a problem, and spending a couple of hours at it, Randy declined payment ("I didn’t do anything."), and recommended me to a specialist that he trusted (it all worked out). I have never been disappointed in the service, or the treatment I received. There is a reason that they are now in their 3rd generation of operation…

Once again Sooter's Auto Repair provided outstanding service! I bought front and rear bumpers, along with a winch and storage vault, arranging with Kim to have all installed to my surprise in one day!! Installation was going fine, until Mechanic James called bringing a damaged storage vault to my attention, which had been damaged during delivery. James contacted all parties necessary to return the damaged vault and arrange for the delivery of a new vault! Installation of the bumpers and winch were professionally completed and my Willy's Jeep looks great!! I bring all my POV's to Sooter's Auto Repair for service and every time leave completely satisfied!! Thank you!!
