ACE is great. I only use them for all of our car needs, they keep great records of our cars for current and upcoming repairs and maintenance.

Libby Willmore

At first I got a diagnosis for repairs, had AC leak, bad shocks and tires needed to be replaced plus oil change.Zach (hope I spell the name correctly) took the car in, at first I was afraid of what other repairs would be required.The car did not do so well on the AC and had to go back to the shop. Zach saw my frustration as the car belongs to my daughter and of course we were not in a good position to spend more money. Ace worked with us up to the end and we’re very understanding about everything and our frustration and got my daughter’s car back on the road and helped us all the way. Very Glad we took the vehicle to you. I only met Zach but I am sure more people are to thank here. Thanks for everything again

Excellent service

These guys are awesome! They did my transmission fluid the RIGHT way and for a fraction of the price that the steal-ership wanted to do just a flush. The guys are very informative, honest, upfront and super knowledgeable as well. All things that are hard to find with a mechanic shop, unfortunately. They easily earned a lifelong customer. 👍

Excellent job on my car gentleman. Appreciate the honest and quick service. Highly recommended.

20:07 08 Jul 26

Can't recommend these guys enough. I've been having them work on two different cars I've owned over the past couple years, and they have always been kind, patient, fair, and helpful. I've even had a dealership give me a free rundown of a car I bought there, then I called Ace to get their second opinion, and they were kind enough to translate all the mechanic gibberish to normal English for me as they gave me their second opinions on the initial assessment. I'm moving out of state soon, but these guys will be changing my oil and doing inspections and repairs anytime I'm back visiting Utah.

Brought my car in for a mass airflow sensor issue that I've been fighting with for two years. The folks at Ace knew exactly what the problem was, were able to get it fixed the same day, and it hasn't been an issue since.They also made sure to recommend the least expensive option first to help prevent us from overpaying for the solution.I've taken my cars to Ace on several occasions now and have been highly impressed with their skill and professionalism.

Had my teenage daughter’s car repaired back in February 2026. We needed the alternator replaced and various other repairs done. We were informed with what the cost would be and other recommendations. It was great that they were open on Saturday. Their work was exceptional. We would recommend Ace Auto to anyone needing an honest and reliable company for your car repairs and maintenance.

I've had my van in a couple times. They're honest about what needs to be done and what doesn't. I've had several times other shops quoted me very high repair costs then come here and had them tell me it either didn't need to be done or actually needed a different repair that wouldn't be as expensiveThey do a full inspection every time I come in and let me know everything they did. Extremely organized with everything they do.

Ace checked it, found that it was my spark plugs needed to be replaced/ tune up! Save me over 1000 dollars! Like I said in a prior review they are very honest and dont try to take advantage of you! I recommend them highly to everyone I know!... thanks again for your professionalism! . They are our auto repair shop! Thank you!

I called & they fit me right in on a Saturday. Zak was friendly, very knowledgeable, listens to my concerns, very professional & I had a totally different experience w/him vs the company I had just taken my vehicle to for just a oil change that caused the problem your company had to fix. I will definitely come back & send others as well.

The guys at Ace Auto are awesome. They went over the entire estimate with me line by line and what the repair entailed. They had my car fixed quickly. When the check engine light came back on a week later they had me bring it in the same day and I had it back that night. They were quick and fairly priced. Would definitely recommend taking your vehicle to them.

Amanda Ronan

Barry Whitworth

15:40 26 Sep 25

When I dropped my 2005 Dodge truck off yesterday, I was given a quote on services that I thought would include repairs. When I heard back from them, I learned the charges were only for the diagnosis of the problem. My husband and I went in to talk it over with them this morning and Zach and his team were very good to work with us. They remained civil and courteous as I explained the misunderstanding. Instead of charging me full price for the diagnosis, they cut it by more than half. I'm grateful for the way they handled my complaint and impressed by the way they were willing to negotiate terms of payment with me. They take a very professional approach in their services, but I wish they'd been more clear that the estimate was only to cover a diagnosis, not the repair.

Sarah Sanchez

17:42 18 Sep 25

This is a difficult car with several problems resulting from age, wear and design. The guys at ACE have dug down and diagnosed and repaired several problems. I have also paid for the diagnostic. Then I could repair myself. They are professional, even with the grungiest engines.

Corbin Robinson

15:08 20 Aug 25

I have never taken any of my vehicles to a mechanic shop before. I usually fix them myself, but due to my busy schedule, I haven’t had the time or energy at the end of the day to work on cars. I found Ace Auto Repair online and read the great reviews. Zach was great to work with. He kept me updated every step of the way on my vehicle. His prices was very fair and reasonable, believe me, I know. I will always take my vehicles to Ace Auto Repair, no two ways about it!Thank you to Zach and your team for a job well done!

Heidi Atkinson

05:45 18 Aug 25

These guys are awesome! It is so difficult to find a auto repair shop that you can trust! I brought my 2006 Ford Ranger in to have an O2 Sensor replaced. They replaced it. Of course they did. BUT, they didn't know that every time I would press the gas pedal to speed up, my Air Conditioning Fan would stop blowing. I don't know what they did but it's working perfectly now! Please do yourself a favor and check these guys out when you need something done. By the way, they're next door to another auto repair shop that looks shady as hell. Make sure you go to the correct address.
