The work we come out for

The name makes you smile.
The work is why you save our number.

Our badge is a hand-drawn monkey holding a power drill. The work behind it is serious: fair quotes, a clean setup, and repairs explained before we start. If a repair is not worth your money, we will tell you so.

Suspension & steering

Struts, shocks, and front-end work. An alignment shop rechecked one of our suspension jobs and called it outstanding. That is the standard we hold ourselves to.

Brakes & brake lines

Pads, rotors, calipers, and the lines between them. Braking is not a place to cut corners, so we never do.

Belts, hoses & cooling

Serpentine belts, radiators, water pumps, and the hoses that give out in Arizona heat. We keep your cooling system ready for it.

Engine work

Timing chains, motor mounts, and cylinder head work: the deeper jobs, done carefully at your address.

No-starts & fuel systems

If it will not turn over, call us before you pay for a tow. Fuel pumps, diagnosis, and straight answers about what your engine is telling you.

Oil changes & diagnostics

Regular oil service, and diagnostics where we walk you through what we found and what it means before any work begins.

How a visit goes

Your driveway is the service bay.

Call us first

Tell us what the car is doing, or not doing. If we can save you a tow or a repair you do not need, we will.

We come to you

Canopy up, cart stocked, and on time. Your driveway, your office lot, or wherever the key stopped turning.

We explain, then we fix

You will know what failed and what it takes to make it right before the wrench comes out.

Cars do not break on schedule, and we understand that. We have finished a belt job in the heat of the afternoon, held a job open for an hour and a half while a parts store made good on a wrong part, and put a family back on the road home to Utah after their car gave out here. If it is near closing time, call anyway. We will do our best for you.

In our customers' words

We would rather let our neighbors do the talking.

“The technician showed up exactly on time, just as promised. The suspension job was completed professionally and with great attention to detail. I took my car in for an alignment based on the technician’s recommendation, and the alignment shop confirmed that whoever worked on the car did an absolutely outstanding job.

Agon, in his Google review

“Had Shabazz work on two vehicles for our kids and I have to say we went from being quoted $1,000 at another place, to paying $500 with him for just one car! ... If you are in need of a professional and reliable mechanic call Shabazz.”

“Went above and beyond. Constant communication with me drove way out to me. Then the part store ended up getting me the wrong part. He found it waited an hr and half till I got back with it and finished up the job. Was clean and respectful. He definitely earned a customer.”

Shane, on Google

“In less than 40 minutes he let me know that my problem was in the head gasket. He also let me know that I should not be driving my car like that ... he took the time to walk me through what he was doing and what it all meant.”

Monica, on Google

“I had been visiting family in arizona and was headed back home to utah when my car died. ... We had the vehicle towed to Shabazz he quickly repaired our car and got us back on the road. We returned home without incident. I'm so grateful we called him! Trust worthy and honest.”

Karrina, on Google

“We had our serpentine belt break and had so many failed attempts.. we called Toy Monkey Automotive and they got the job done. ... It was hot and he still managed to get it done. ... reliable, affordable, lots of communication and very very trust worthy and respectful.”
