I work in the construction industry and it is critical that my trucks run on a daily basis. I can't afford a breakdown during a critical time during my work.

I found that with Mechanics Pride Tire & Automotive, they not only fixed my truck the first time, without having to go back and forth, but they were able to spot potential problems and alert me ahead of time.

I am now in a preventive maintenance program with them. I take my vehicle in for an inspection at the beginning of each season here in Spokane. (That is 4 times a year). I am also on a regular oil change schedule.

I am very pleased with the quality of work and craftmanship at Mechanics Pride Tire & Automotive.

Being a woman, I usually feel that when I go to a car repair shop the salesman may try to take advantage of me and try to sell me repairs that I don't need. I have found that Michael Federico, the owner of Mechanics Pride Tire & Automotive, and all his employees are not that way.

They make me feel comfortable. They take the time to explain what the car repair is and why it needs to be done. They also try to save me money and won't fix anything that is not necessary.

I like the fact that Mike and his experienced automotive technicians are people of integrity and honesty, something that you don't find at many shops that deal with women.

I have a newer model car and am very happy with it. However, I expected that it should have very little, if no maintenence problems. When I took it to the dealer, their mechanics were always finding something wrong with it.

I went to Mechanics Pride for a second opinion. They told me that the minor issues were blown out of proportion by the dealership's mechanics. They were just trying to get more money out of me.

I am glad that Mike and Chris were not only honest in my assessment of my car, but I also discovered the wealth of knowledge they have about how I can take care of my car to avoid costly repair jobs in the future.
