Called and asked manager Dennis if he could provide an diagnosis and estimate for this older car with history of issues. He called and advised that said issue wasn’t present and that perhaps diagnosis at “other shop” was “iffy”, as making it would have called for most of motor to be taken apart. And no charge for evaluation of car.
This auto center is thorough, honest, not expensive, and reliable. I highly recommend Desert Sun.Debra R

I took my power steering pump in to be repaired as was leaking and even though pump was over a year Dennis was willing to void the part charge and only charged the labor. He also checked my belts, hoses as I asked and stated were fine. A lot of dishonest shops would just sell you something you don’t need to make money. Also ran a diagnostic to see if any computer codes showed and did not charge for that either.

In the past I had a number of shops work on this truck, and they all assured me that they were greasing it. It made a terrible squeak every time I went over a speed bump or made a sharp turn. After Dennis did the repairs and maintenance, NO SQUEEK! apparently this shop really DOES the work, and I am so impressed. Beside the mechanical work, I also needed new struts on my back camper shell window and he graciously put those on for me. I needed a one stop service, and he did it all. Can’t say enough good things about this shop.

When I pointed out the crack to an employee he said he didn’t drive it, I need to call back tomorrow and talk to the guy that drove it.
I am debating if I even want to take it back to them to finish the repairs or just bite the bullet and find a different mechanic.

read full reviewDesert Sun was referred to us by a friend when we moved to Tucson in 2012. We have been really happy with the service from there. They tell us what we need to do and not need to do to our vehicles. An example yesterday, I took my newly purchased used truck to him to look over to see if anything needs to be done other than changing the oil. Dennis said the hoses were fine and that we will check them again in a year. He could have told me to replace them and I would have believed him, but he didn’t. That kind of truthfulness means the world to me. I highly recommend this place, in a world of people taking advantage of each other at least I know I have a place to take my cars and not get ripped off!

read full reviewI can’t say enough good things about Dennis and Byron at Desert Sun Automotive. They NEVER try to sell me something that I don’t need. In fact, they do just the opposite. They are the MOST honest mechanics in all of Tucson. I’ve been taking my cars to them for well over ten years and will do as long as they are in business. Just took it in today for the brakes. Dennis informed me that only rear brakes needed to be done today and that the front brakes were fine and could wait. I take my cars there for oil changes because I don’t want some chain store trying to sell me repairs I don’t need. Desert Sun is fast, honest, and incredibly knowledgeable. They do it right the first time! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Desert Sun!

July 18th, 20165 Brought truck in for a new battery and received prompt and professional assistance with minimal wait time. They carry well made Interstate batteries that come with a 30 month warranty for free replacement if you have any problems within that time.

They are flexible and always try to work with me as much as possible. Great owner, great work, great place to take any vehicle. Highly Recommend!

Not only did Dennis and his team get my truck fixed the day I dropped it off, it cost less than coworkers that have had the same repair done at other shops. I have always gotten that ‘you don’t know anything because you’re a woman’ vibe from mechanics but never felt anything but comfortable using this shop. I will continue to go back for any repair work I need, as well as maintenance! Dennis and his team at Desert Sun Auto Service is amazing and a blessing to all its customers!!

read full reviewThe most recent repair that Desert Sun performed was on my daughter’s 2006 Ford Fusion. She needed a cooling fan replaced and had automatic door lock and window issues. As usual the work was of the highest quality and efficient. All work is tested before turned over to the consumer. I lived and worked in Tucson for 17 years from 1994 – 2011. I have always hated to take my cars in for repairs to either dealers or auto repair shops because of the feeling of being taken. A law enforcement friend turned me on to Desert Sun because that is where the police department took their cars. I took a chance and literally 20 years later I still take my cars to Desert Sun. in 2011 I took a job in Wisconsin, but my 87 year old mother lives just outside Tucson and my adult daughter lives in Phoenix. I still arrange for them to take their cars to Desert Sun because I know they do great work and are honest. That is also why Desert Sun and its owner, Dennis, are still in Business. I am a Dean of a university in Wisconsin and a parent and I recommend Desert Sun to any parent who has a son or a daughter going to school in Tucson. It is always a worry, but Dennis is honest and his workers are all trained and certified. His prices are very reasonable too.

read full reviewI took my ’94 Ford Taurus to Desert Sun for the first time and they really impressed me with their level of integrity and honesty. I had a loose axle nut (left from another repair shop) that had been causing some vibration on the front end. It was my impression that I either had a suspension issue or a bad wheel bearing. Dennis and his mechanics did a full inspection of the front end and were completely honest about the issues. Under the circumstances, I would have *expected* them to try to sell me on additional repairs. However, they secured the axle nut and didn’t charge me a dime for the inspection. Having some decent experience around cars myself, I am normally VERY skeptical about taking my car to repair shops. BUT, Dennis has more than earned my trust and I will be happy to bring my car back again.

The next morning I was informed it just needed a bolt replacement on the brake that was scraping against my tire. What a relief ! I have experianced many mechanics who have taken a simple repair such as this and charge me hundreds of dollars for bogus repairs. I thank Denise at Desert Sun Auto for being so honest and for that he has my eternal gratitude and business whenever I need a mechanic in the future.

April 26th, 20125 I took my car in for a quick diagonostic because I thought I saw antifreeze in my carport. They checked my car and reported that everything was ok…no leak detected….so I left with a piece of mind and wasn’t charged for the service.

February 28th, 20125 This is an excellent firm with knowledgeable and service minded personnel. I have been there twice now and feel I have found a firm I can depend on to service my “special” old convertible. Dennis is a great individual with whom to do business!

February 9th, 20125 Dennis and his staff are terrific. They provide timely, friendly service and are honest about what truly is troubling your vehicle….no hidden agendas to get more work done to your vehicle other than what is needed. Pricing is very reasonable and Desert Sun strives to be the best in satisfied customers! Thanks Desert Sun!
