Pete’s garage is the best around! Seriously a professional operation with honest pricing and helpful customer service. I always feel like my car is getting the attention it needs and at the same time getting the attention I need to make good choices on servicing needs. Give them a try. You’ll see.

I can’t recommend Pete’s Garage enough! They are welcoming and accommodating, always offering to help with transportation if needed. Whenever I need to have work done, it’s clearly communicated and classified into categories letting me know which issues need immediate attention and which ones can wait until my next visit. Everyone at Pete’s Garage is professional, friendly, honest, and extremely efficient. I never have to wait long for my car and they have made time for me last minute on multiple occasions. They’re really the best!

Bryan, Patrick, and their team always take such great care of my truck! They are trustworthy and never try and sell me unnecessary work. They explain everything in an easy to understand manner without making me feel dumb, and they are awesome at diagnosing difficult issues. Highly recommend Pete's Garage and suggest using their easy online booking system!

Had my 90K tune-up done a bit early. Not only did Pete’s validate that the rear bearings needed to be replaced, they identified that my rear brakes needed to be replaced. On a side note: the local dealer had dismissed my repeated concerns regarding brake function. I did NOT mention this to Pete’s before my appt. My car handles great! It is noticeably quieter. The brakes finally feel reliable and my mileage has NEVER been so good driving around town( holiday traffic no less).

This business is the prime example of why local is always better than chains! Brian is always friendly and happy to answer questions about services. I appreciate the ease of communication and the option of a Lyft so that I can drop my car off before work and pick it up afterwards, without hassle. Pricing is great and fair. Also appreciate they provide photos and explanation on services- so far I have had my pre-purchase inspection and auto maintenance done here.

Bryan is great as the office front person- very personable, returns calls/texts promptly, very knowledgeable about repairs and honest in telling you what repairs have to/should be done now and those repairs that can wait. His brother, the mechanic, is great with the inspection/diagnostics and repairs. Pete's Garage is my "go-to" auto mechanic and I have great trust in them

The guys at Pete’s are super knowledgeable and friendly. They’ve caught things on our vehicle that the dealer service center missed, and we’re grateful for their careful attention. Inspections are very thorough but they are not at all pushy about which services to accept/decline. Will continue to return to Pete’s whenever our vehicles need attention.

I have been taking our cars here for years and always recommend for friends and family. They do a great job of splitting problems into “need to get done today”, “might want to get this done down the road” and “not a real concern” which is always greatly appreciated.

Easy to schedule an appointment. Excellent service. I trust them and appreciate being able to authorize service based on their findings, rather than a bill after service is done. No waiting room, fancy coffee machine or annoying TV. I appreciate the Lyft back to my residence.

I don’t usually leave reviews, but the team at Pete’s Garage really deserves the shout-out. No surprises, no pressure, just honest, reliable service. The shop was clean, the staff is super friendly, and they treated me with genuine respect. That kind of customer service is rare these days. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a mechanic they can trust.

Pete's Garage was able to do a major repair on my car (new clutch, brake pads, etc.) in record time and for a reasonable price. I was presented with all the options for what a repair would look like and never felt forced into choosing more repairs than I was comfortable with. Will continue to take my vehicles there!

Pete's Garage is always professional and thorough when I bring my car in for repairs. They are clear about the cost of diagnostics and testing up front. They also explain exactly what they found and what is needed to fix it. Their online billing system allows you to accept or deny repairs item by item so I always knew exactly what was going on throughout the process. I prefer to use Pete's Garage for all my repairs and regular maintenance due to their clear communication and excellent service

My partner and I are new to the Durham area and I am so grateful to have found Pete’s garage to help us keep our 2013 Ford Focus on the road. The guys at Pete’s have reasonable, up front prices and they get our car done quickly. They give you a list of repairs and help you prioritize them to meet your budget requirements. Finding a mechanic you can trust is stressful. These guys are fair and reliable and I appreciate them so much!

Pete's Garage is great! I manage the fleet at my company and because of this I have at least 1 vehicle in the shop each month. We are able to schedule appointments online in advance, their scheduling systems remembers our vehicles so I don't have to type in all the details every time. They complete a full inspection of the vehicle each time it comes to the shop and they send me a report with their recommendations, including photos and a quote for repairs of that specific piece. I'm able to pick and choose what services I want to proceed with before they begin the work. I love this transparency! It makes it very easy to know exactly what you are getting and why. I feel much more comfortable taking our fleet to Pete's Garage than I have at the other 6 mechanics I've tried over the years. I highly recommend Pete's Garage.

Pete's Garage was excellent. They make sure to take care of car and customer. They did a comprehensive inspection of my newly purchased vehicle and gave me an honest breakdown of the good, the things to monitor, and the things that need immediate attention. They provide detailed explanations of recommended services and then let you choose which to have done during your visit. I trust this shop and will definitely be back to let Pete's Garage continue to take great care of my vehicle!

Bryan and the team at Pete's Garage did a great job evaluating my nearly 20 year old Ford F150. My son-in-law 'gifted' it to me recently, but he didn't have any of the maintenance records. Pete's diagnosed several critical issues including multiple misfires in 4 of 8 cylinders, out of spec spark plug gaps, bad coolant, nearly 10 year old tires, evidence that the differential fluid hadn't been changed per schedule (possibly never), and a burned out headlight and 3rd brake light. They took care of the most critical items for a very reasonable amount. But the most important thing they did was allow me to be confident that I should be able to safely drive this pick-up locally without worrying that I would get stranded if it suddenly broke down. I will certainly be having them perform future work on my vehicles.
