The start of what I expected to be a very bad experience. We were referred to Earl Copeland by our mechanic in Marietta, GA. I spoke with Mr. Copeland as he was closing and we had our van towed there. The next morning Mr. Copeland was there early and he, Dex and George got the van into a bay and they looked at it right away. George and Dex diagnosed and solved the problem and got us back on the road in a fraction of the time I expected and at a fraction of the cost I was fearing. Earl and his mechanics are very competent, professional and kind. What could have been a bad experience turned out to be a pleasant one that I will not soon forget. I would recommend this group to anyone without reservation. The next morning, Mr. Copeland called me to make sure we had gotten home OK. You don't run into people this good every day (unfortunately), I have learned to cherish it when I do. Thank you Earl, George & Dex!

I cannot recommend Pete's Otto enough. I brought my 2020 Mazda Miata RF to them after it sat at the…read morelocal Mazda dealership for nearly 6 weeks. The dealer's Master Tech couldn't even give me a proper diagnosis. I dropped it off at Pete's, and within 24 hours, they identified a voltage spike from an old battery that fried the instrument cluster. Within 4 days, they secured warranty approval and parts. They also caught a transmission leak that the dealer missed. MJ was awesome and made everything easier than I thought. Their competence and communication are top-tier. They have a customer for Life in me.

I've been a customer of Pete's Auto for several years and have brought two different Mercedes…read morevehicles to them, including my most recent one over the past couple of years. Despite some of the mixed reviews I've seen, my personal experience has been consistently positive. Anytime I've had questions. especially "what if" or scenario-based questions, they took the time to answer them thoroughly and professionally. I was always given clear explanations and all available options, which allowed me to make informed decisions about repairs without feeling pressured. They've also stood behind their work. In one instance involving an inner door panel repair, I pointed out a discrepancy after pickup. They immediately ordered a replacement and corrected the issue to my satisfaction without hesitation. That level of accountability matters. There were also times when I needed services they didn't offer, and instead of trying to upsell or take on work outside their scope, they were upfront and referred me elsewhere. I appreciated that honesty. In addition to this, there was a time a brought a foreign vehicle I was considering purchasing for my daughter to Pete's Auto for an inspection. They performed a thorough evaluation and were honest about the condition of the car, ultimately saving me from purchasing a vehicle that would have required nearly $5,000 in repairs that the local dealer DID NOT disclose despite saying they had completed a bumper to bumper inspection. That level of transparency and expertise reinforced my trust in their recommendations. One thing I think is important for people to understand, especially when reading negative reviews, is that high-mileage foreign vehicles will require costly repairs regardless of where you take them. That's the nature of the vehicle, not the shop. At that point, it becomes a personal decision whether to continue investing in the car or move on to something with lower maintenance costs. Compared to dealership pricing, Pete's Auto has consistently been far more reasonable. Overall, their professionalism, communication, knowledge, and willingness to stand behind their work have earned my trust. I highly recommend Pete's Auto to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable shop for foreign vehicle maintenance and repairs, without paying dealership prices.
