A week ago I was about to leave my house for work and my check engine light started flashing and my car started shaking. I knew I couldn't go to work with my car in that condition, so I gave Southcross a call and they were able to get my car in, diagnose the problem, give me a call to let me know what was wrong and how much it would be to fix it, and then fix it all within a span of about four hours. The gentlemen that were in the shop were very kind and made everything easy to understand without making me feel dumb. Overall I was happy with my experience at Southcross and would definitely go to them again!

Steve, Tim and the entire team did a great job taking care of my 2011 Chevy Cruze when I brought it in. They were able to diagnose the problem very quickly and provide an answer to me on how to fix it and gave me an honest and good quote. They took their time to make sure it was done the right way and provided me with updates along the way. While the car was in the shop they gave me a nice and clean courtesy car to use so I wasn’t stranded. On top of all of that the customer service was top notch and they truly cared about my situation. I would definitely recommend Southcross for an oil change or a major repair! Great job guys!

I am always hesitant and skeptical when taking my car in for repairs and question more than your average customer due to bad past experiences with mechanics. The work that needed doing was not easy and not cheap and I know I personally was a pain about the cost. The entire time Steve and Tim took it in stride and were professional and open about what they were doing. My fiancé, who recommended me bringing my car in brought my car back once the work was done and asked them to show him what parts were replaced, and Tim and Steve happily obliged. Steve and Tim maintained transparency and professionalism the entire time and communicated with us through out the entire process. Although I’m not sure they’d give me a five star rating 😅, that’s what they deserve and would recommend them to anyone looking for vehicle repair.

Steve and his crew are awesome! I have been going to South Cross for all my auto needs for well over 10 year, and I have never been disappointed. They treat you with respect and take their time to explain what is wrong and what my options may be.

Steve and his team have always been very helpful and knowledgeable when I have issues with my car. They take pride in their work and are very reasonable with their quotes. I recommend them to anyone in the south metro who needs their vehicle serviced.

Was having issues with my Jeep engine stalling. Knew I had a sensor issue, but not much else. Steve was able to get my vehicle in that day, diagnosed the issue, replaced two sensors, and had me back on the road by later that day. While having your vehicle in the shop is never fun (or cheap), I appreciated the great customer service and quick turnaround. With kids, two jobs, and an overall busy life, Southcross Auto was there when I needed them. (as they have been in the past) Happy to have them in my neighborhood! :D

I didnt even have any work done and I will be back. I took my truck here because I was told by another shop that I needed a brake job. Steve was honest and told me I still had some time before I really needed brakes. He didn't just take my money and do the job. Prices are great and love the integrity. Will be back for sure.

I fancy myself an amateur auto mechanic so you can guess how I felt about bringing my wife's car in for a strange noise in the suspension.Boy, were my initial emotions misplaced, because I was delighted with the services performed on the car due to their honesty and integrity. They even went above and beyond when they spent time at home searching for a solution on the internet instead of 'throwin darts' and replacing likely components. I was even cut a deal at the end of it!I've always been the kind of person to "replace it at home" when offered services at auto shops because I could never bring myself to trust anyone but the dealership to tell me the truth about my car (we all have to make a living somehow). But Southcross Auto Service has earned my respect and I genuinely trust them to perform work on my cars with my best interest in mind.

I was very pleased with all of the service I have received. They are very good at keeping me apprised of any new information or changes. They have also been very professional and have competitive pricing. I also truly appreciate their accuracy on time as I cannot stand having to repeatedly check-in not having my car back when expected so I can get on with my life. I will continue to be a repeat customer and recommend them to friends in the future.

I have been taking my cars here for at least 20 years. The service has always been very good. I am able to get appointments when I need them. The work is done timely and the prices are good.

I have been bringing our cars to Steve and his team for years and their service has been both professional and reliable. I appreciate how they inform me of what needs to be done now, what can wait to be done in the near future and what to keep on eye out for down the line....no pressure selling. I just really appreciate their level of customer service, which I value very high. Quality work, honest and trustworthy.

I randomly got my oil done by Southcross and really enjoyed both the experience and the price. I recently had to get my brakes looked at, which turned into brakes and rotors replaced. I turned in my car at 9:30am and they were done with my back brakes by 11:00am!!!!!! such a quick turn around. I did get the opportunity to stay at the service center while my car was being fixed, it was very enjoyable. Overall, this will more than likely be my go to place for my car :) And i live in SLP!!

I have brought my family's cars to Steve now for over a year for many different issues. They have been able to diagnose and fix quickly. I am always kept up to date with the status and get a follow up call a few days later making sure all is working correctly. I highly recommend using Steve and his team for all car issues.

Prices always seem to be fair and I can usually get a loaner if I call ahead. Most repairs are done in 24 hours. I’ve been very happy with the service at Southcross.

Just what you would expect from a local shop that has been around for years: Steve and Kevin are very welcoming and knowledgable. Found my engine problem and fixed only what I needed. I highly recommend Sourhcross Auto.

They've taken care of our cars for years and always provide fast quality service, fair pricing, and honest assessments. They proactively let me know which repairs are urgent and which can wait. They stand behind their work and will continue to be our preferred service shop.

I have been bringing my vehicles here for many years and have always been happy with the service, price and quality of the repairs. Steve and company will find the problem and call you with a quote and a time frame to complete the repairs.

They evaluated the problems I had with my Jeep on two separate occasions for two separate problems. It was explained to me thoroughly what was wrong on both occasions and what it would cost to repair the problem. They understood that safety was a prime priority and that additional service was up for discussion. I was told of all the potential work that could be done and what it would cost. Both times were very honest appraisals and the work done was excellent and extremely swift. Fixed right the first time!!!

Fantastic service, very friendly people, they really do take care of people. They really do understand how stressful it can be to have a vehicle in disrepair and be without transportation, they've made every effort to make the entire process as painless as possible, including providing a courtesy vehicle. They're affordable prices make them a great choice, but the peace of mind knowing that you have this fantastic group of people in your corner makes them invaluable in times of need. I couldn't recommend these guys highly enough!

This is the best auto service place to go to for all vehicle services! The staff is excellent to work with. Steve and the mechanics have exceptional personalities that has always been a warm touch to my heart. They are honest and upfront with your every need. I have been going to them for 3 plus years and will not change. I recommend them for all your auto care needs.
