Mountain Auto Repair & Muffler, Inc. in
Heber City (UT)

I traveled to Utah for a fishing trip and my vehicle started to make an unpleasant sound in the middle of the national forest outside of Heber City. It drove ok but I was very worried about getting it back into town. I was able to get it back and I immediately I went to a few other mechanics that I found on Google first but they all turned me away. The guys here at mountain auto told me they weren’t going to leave anyone stranded and helped me out. Luckily it was a 10 minute fix but I am forever grateful for their generosity. 5 stars across the board. I believe everyone in this region should use them!

These guys were great. Had my Subaru overheating.... No surprise and they did a full test and diagnostic for 80 bucks... Another mechanic in park city was going to charge 240. They were extremely honest and professional. It's nice to know these guys are here for future needs

My regular mechanic in Provo and another mechanic here in Heber were too busy to fix my radiator. I wasn’t going to be able to drive my car to work until it got fixed and James understood that. Even though he was busy, he said he would fit me in because I needed it.

I called at 8:00 in the morning and asked about getting our truck repaired as we had a leak on our radiator and were traveling through with a camper headed back to Missouri. I was told to bring it in and he would take care of us. It was very appreciated that someone would be so caring about travelers from out of town. There are still good people in the world.

Wonderful! My Dodge he figured the problem when the dealer couldn’t! My Tundra he found and fixed all the major issue! Truck runs great!

Great experience. James and the team took a quick look at my car right when I brought it in to see if there’s something that could be fixed quickly. It unfortunately couldn’t, but they were communicative throughout the process, taking the time to explain what was going on. Pricing was super reasonable. 10/10 and will definitely bring my car here going forward.

James and team saved us not once, but twice. We were visiting on a road trip from Houston with three husky and husky mixes, and our AC gave out, which would have been dangerous for our dogs in the heat. They were able to fix it same day within an hour of arriving. Second issue on a different day during our stay, our alternator gave out. They replaced it and got us back up and running within an hour and a half. We were worried these repairs might have ruined our trip or affected our planned drive back to Houston, especially since another shop we called said we would need to leave our vehicle all day for the AC issue and they weren’t sure they could fix it same day. Instead, our trip was hardly impacted and we made it back to Houston safely on schedule without any vehicle trouble. They could have upcharged us and instead charged reasonable rates and clearly explained everything they were doing and why. Thank you so much from our whole family! Our dogs had a nice cool ride back to Houston thanks to you all.

James helped me out in big way. I arrived for a month stay in an RV park and my starter went out. I had my truck back wothin 24 hrs. Ford said they would need two to three weeks. This is a great repair shop! Thank You, James.

These guys do great work and stand behind it. They are the only mechanic in Heber that I will take a vehicle to! They definitely just earned a customer for life. James was great to work with, and kept me updated through the entire process.

Honest, thoughtful, friendly, and thorough... good fair prices. Have taken 3 vehicles there and if you need auto help, go there. Thanks James, zach... you made my travels safe and my cars happier! Can't say enough good, they even worked on my RV when I was in need!

My new go-to mechanic shop. I brought in my project car that has had inexplicable issues for over a year and a half. No other mechanic in town was able to figure out what the issue was, and i was given back my broken car along with a fat bill over four times in a row. I didn’t have high hopes because of the many failed attempts, but i heard from the last place i went to that the reputation here was worth a try. I came in, explained my situation and described my cars issues the best i could, and after only a month and a half of tinkering testing and research, my car works great again! James was descriptive about his repairs and his thought process, he worked with my budget and made sure i stayed informed. if you think your car is a lost cause like i did, Mountain Auto Repair is your place. im so so pleased with my experience!!

James and crew at Mountain Muffler have worked on 2 of my cars and done superb work. Great communicating when more work is needed and they diagnose issues to fix the problem when other shops just remove a part and put a new one in. True masters at diagnosis. Highly recommended. Been sending my cars there for service for 8+ years.

I cannot say enough good things about James and this shop. Great to work with as a home mechanic. Most things I can do at home, but they replaced the timing belt on my 30 year old truck. And they stand behind their work with a warranty. Wish I could give 6 stars.

My husband and I were traveling cross country and we had a car trouble while in town. The owner got us in quickly that morning, even though they were extremely busy. They were able to diagnose the problem, fix it, and with new a defective part, they fixed it again. They are very knowledgeable! Able to help, had very good communication, would recommend these guys for your car any day!!

I just have to say that i started having problems with my pinion bearings and rear axles and called around to different shops. Not only did the guys at mountain auto repair have a fair price for my repairs but they also made it a priority to fit me into their tight schedule and get me back on the road in a pinch. Not only was the service phenomenal but the whole experience here for me couldn't have been better. 10/10 would recommend!

We broke down on a Sunday July 3rd going up the canyon to Heber. Had our car towed to Mountainland Auto Repair. Left it there til July 5th when the reopened after the Weekend Holiday. Called 15 minutes before they opened and told them we left our car there and he said he’d get right on it since we were stranded & just visiting family in Heber for the weekend. He ordered the parts and they were delivered and car was repaired same day and we picked it up at 1:30pm. $680 for replacing the water pump and replacing the serpentine belt. Got it done in less than 4 hours and we were able to get back on the road in time. Thank you and would do business there again. 🙏😊

I have found my shop in Heber! I’ve had some trouble with two other chain shops in Heber and was looking for someone to take a look at a grinding front brake. These guys were able to diagnose and fix my issue with a quick turnaround even though they had a heavy work load. They were friendly and thorough and stuck to their original quote. I will be trusting this shop with future repairs and recommend you skip the chains and go local.

I couldn’t be more impressed with James and the entire crew at Mountain Auto. We had just moved to town when my brake light came on. James had me in that day and quickly repaired the brakes. He also located a hard-to-find part for my shocks and had me back the next week to take care of that. Car runs like a dream. We also have a very old car that I couldn’t get the hood open for and he told me to just drop by so it could be fixed. I was there and on my way in minutes and he didn’t even charge me. I feel so confident in their work, their diagnoses and their integrity. I would highly recommend this business.

My car overheated when I was on a 700 mile trek home right in downtown Heber. Mountain Auto Repair was amazing! I called them immediately asking what I should do and if it was okay if I drove my car to them. This all happened less than an hour before they closed, but they didn't even mention that fact and said to bring it by and they would see what they could do. I felt like they genuinely cared about people and I felt like I was part of a community when I went to them even though I was a complete stranger. Since I had limited options and couldn't stay in Heber to try to have them fix my car, they went above and beyond to make sure it was drivable, made sure I had options and wouldn't be stranded on my drive if it overheated again, told me what they thought was happening with the car, and gave me all the information of what they did for the car so I could have it for my mechanic at home. They were professional, obviously extremely experienced, and kind. I managed to make it home safely without incident and they ended up being spot-on with their guess of what was wrong.

James made the time to fit our Outback in for an emergent radiator replacement while we were in vacation there. He was not only willing to take our car with no prior notice but he also was honest & incredibly fast getting a replacement radiator and getting our car running again in less than 24 hours! I cannot thank Mountain Auto enough for their quality workmanship & speed! They saved our trip and saved us hundreds of dollars in rentals or airplane tickets! The repair was done right & done fast for a very fair rate. I cannot think of better qualities in a mechanic shop. I would highly recommend them. They saved the day for us!

Great customer service. My family and I were on a trip when we experienced engine trouble near Heber and could not continue. After trying other shops, Mountain Auto Repair said they would accommodate us despite being very busy and it already being late afternoon. They said they don't like people being stranded. The issue was failing spark plugs. They quickly fixed the problem and we were on our way. Thank you Mountain Auto Repair!

These guys never disappoint me! They are honest and hard working people! They really care about their customers! I brought my 86 k5 blazer in and the work they did on it is just pure amazing! They truly go out of their way to help you, and I will never forget that. For as long as I live in heber I will always choose these guys! James and his crew are awesome! Thanks guys!👍

Was out of town so I had to get my breaks fixed so I could continue on my trip. They were actually awesome for it and did it super fast for me it only took the. About 3-4 hours to get it in and done. I was not happy it was $115 for labor. SLC shops charge $90. My AC Compressor went out and they said they could not replace it without doing the dryer as well and that is stupid since it was just the compressor that was bad. I ordered the compressor and replaced it and put in the R134a. And the AC was not turning on. I looked at the fuse box and AC clutch fuse was missing. The only people that were under the hood before me was them. It makes me wonder if they took the fuse out so when I fixed it myself; as I told them I was going to, so I wouldn’t be able to figure why it was not working to get me to go back for return business... strange

Experience here was great and Troy was awesome to work with. However, car broke down after 1500 miles of getting it back for the exact reason I took it in for to be repaired. Warranty is as about as good as the people warrantying it. In this case I spent $3k here to only have an UN-drivable car. I wish they would have followed through with their "warranty" since I honestly liked working with them until the problem arose again.

These guys are amazing. I have been taking my cars here for several years and I trust them completely. They have demonstrated their honesty and integrity to me on multiple occasions. Every time I take a car in I'm treated well and they spend the time to walk through any issues with me. Have confidence that you will be well taken care of and treated fairly.

Whether your issue be big or small, this is the perfect place to get your vehicle repaired in an efficient and timely manner. Recently the alternator in my car broke down, and I took it to Mountain Muffler. They took care of it much more quickly than even they anticipated, and even told me of some additional work that could be done, and did it! Their prices are more than fair; if they don't get it done on time, it's because they got it done ahead of time; they're very kind and respectful; and all around, these guys are the best I've ever gone to have my car repaired.

I have only good things to say about Troy and the rest of the staff at Mountain Muffler. I dropped my car off when they were closed on a Sunday, without previously meeting anybody there just by going off of friends recommendations, and I couldn't be happier with the end result. I needed a few typical service things taken care of and I thought I had a larger problem in an engine oil leak. Turns out that my "leak" was just a bad o-ring or gasket on my oil filler neck, I was prepared for a hefty labor bill for what I thought was a bad cam seal leak. The staff at Mountain Muffler was completely honest with me and let me know that it was a minor thing and a cheap fix. Other mechanics surely could have done the work I requested and totally ripped me off all while my engine would still be leaking oil from the same spot. I am so glad they were honest with me, it allowed me to get my brakes rotors swapped since I didn't have to put out all my money for a non existent cam seal leak. I'm happy to say that my experience was absolutely wonderful with Mountain Muffler and I will be taking my car back for normal service from here on out. I even drive from Salt Lake over to Heber City just for these guys! Great job and thank you for being up front with me.
