Santa Fe Auto Repair

Two nights ago, I had a serpentine belt replaced by one mechanic (not here) only to ultimately find that they didn't catch a rather serious issue with the water pump. Then, the next mechanic shop (also not this one) damaged my beloved camp stove and became furious and verbally abusive when I even hinted at satisfaction. For context, the camp stove was still usable but the thing was three weeks old and a Christmas gift from a long-time friend and a thing I cook on every single day. Once I looked upon the stove (of sentimental importance) and saw dents, scratches, non-flush elements, and so forth, I didn't even know what to do. The second shop did pay for the stove, ultimately, after some light verbal abuse and random in-the-moment airing of grievances, though. I had no clue I was such a bad person until today. This is where Matt and the others at Automotive Resources come in. But first... As I leave the second shop, I notice a massive amount of rattle and noise from the rear, but I've already been told never to come back, so I look for a proper savior and find Automotive Resources. They informed me that the second shop had improperly placed one of the springs during a rear shock replacement and that it was off centered and knocking against the muffler. Not only did Automotive Resources fix my car in a matter of minutes, but they also listened to my issues intently, showed more empathy than I was used to that day, and put the cost on a AAA card, which is to say I received no bill. Thank you, Automotive Resources for being the singular element in the betterment of my day. I mean it. Thank you! Sincerely, Guy who is rude according to some mechanics

I have used AR for about 15 years, several autos and have always had excellent service with fair prices. I am very happy with their entire operation.

Excellent service! Considering my car needed repair during busy holiday season....Matt was kind enough to arrange work to be done on my car ASAP! I was stranded and not able to return to Tucson! So glad he was so considerate! Car runs great!

I've been going to Automotive Resources for about seven years. Recently I damaged part of the under carriage and emergency brake of my car over Thanksgiving weekend. They were right there for me on Monday morning, and took care of me as well as the repair. They went out of their way to make sure that my life was minimally disrupted, and were always gracious and friendly. They are good people, and I'll stick with them.

The staff at Automotive Resource are very knowledgeable and treat each customer like a friend, providing clear technical explanations and practical advice. They are always busy. That should tell you all you need to know.

Automotive Resources are genuine pros; I respect them and their operations. That's such a rarity now — nothing more to say.

Very friendly and honest staff! I usually work with Mario and he is awesome! They also offer a ride service while your vehicle is being serviced which I am so grateful for. Highly recommend Automotive Resources!

This is my go-to automotive maintenance and repair shop in Santa Fe. Mario and Matt are outstanding, and their sense of humor is a bonus.

As always, the work was done thoroughly and effectively.
