Diagnosing codes on newer model OBDII vehicles has become more complex and difficult for some shops, but not for Central Arizona Auto Techs.

My father is an 83 year old Korean War Marine. He and my mother were pulling their travel trailer home to Colorado when his 05 GMC Duramax started smoking excessively pulling the Black Canyon on I17. He was going to take it to the dealer in Prescott. When my mom let me know what was happening, I made a quick search and contacted Central Az Auto Tech. Jennifer answered the phone and was a pleasure to speak with, they agreed to look at it right away. Chad dropped everything he was doing and quickly figured out the issue was a fuel rail. He had the O ring in stock and in no time had the folks back

My GO TO Mechanic.
Under New Ownership!
Based on the recommendation of my neighbor, I had our 2 Magnus Renovations work truck towed to this shop after overheating and engine light alerts. My worse fears expected - like a lead weight on my chest. Chad (co-owner/tech) sent me a pic of the broken heater hose and explained its function/ behaviors. Holy moly! Our diesel has 320,000 miles on it. What a Relief - a hose?! I’ll take it! Chad replaced the hose within the hour. I asked for an oil change since the truck was due. I got the truck back in the early afternoon. My experience: (1) knowledgeable

On December 24th my fuel pump went out I brought it to Chad the owner of AZ Auto Tech he stayed on Christmas Eve and fixed it so I could spend Christmas in Phoenix with my family. That was more than an act of kindness. Chad and his wife run are very professional business and Chad is an outstanding Mechanic that can be trusted. I have referred many to Az Auto Tech and all have been very pleased. When you need a great mechanic go see Chad you will be glad you did❗️

A friend recommended Central Arizona Auto Tech to us and we cannot be more pleased! The NEW OWNERS are very professional and kind. They were thorough with my vehicle but did not try to sell me services I did not need yet. They explained things clearly, and I felt they were very honest. I have myself a new mechanic in Prescott!

Under new ownership, notice the dates of any negative reviews. I have taken 4 vehicles there in the past four months. I have been promptly called after diagnostics, given options and prices, and have picked up each vehicle same or next day. I am very satisfied with the fast and friendly service both from Chad and Jen.
