Best KPortal Reviews

They have always given me good prices and don't b.s. I recommend using them for any car services. I've gone in with three vehicles over the past 7 years and always had a good experience. There was even a time when I was told from another shop that I needed specific work done and Vargas told me that it was actually another issue that was cheaper which was made me trust that they are not in it to rip me off but to give me good customer service. Also, whenever I call in for a quote, they are quick to reply back with all the options and ask the right questions rather than just assuming something and giving me the highest price. Thanks for all your help and I will be going back the next time I need work on one of my cars.
The guys that work at Vargas are very professional and friendly. I only spent about ten minutes with them but I felt like I was familia. They are bilingual as well so if ur looking for an all around automotive experience of a lifetime, visit Vargas. They are reasonable, honest, and knowledgeable automotive specialists.
Extremely honest and exceptionally fair prices. They’re almost victims of their own success. They’re constantly busy, but we’ve never had to wait longer than a day or two to get our cars worked on.
We’ve used them enough that they know our family by name. We drive 30 minutes to get there because we trust them so much.
I found Vargas (online, through reviews) when I first moved to SLC as a young, single woman in 2015. If you've ever been in a new city in that situation, you know that finding a mechanic is tough work--it always feels like someone is trying to take advantage of you.
I have NEVER felt like that at Vargas. I immediately felt like family. These guys are trustworthy, respectful, and treated me exactly the same as every other customer. I have been a Vargas evangelist since the get-go and have sent countless other friends to see them and have never, ever had a complaint. In fact, my friends end up sending their friends to Vargas, too.
Here's an example: when searching for a used car, we brought one to Vargas and asked them to check it out. They not only did this for us for free*, but they were honest about the state of the car. When we asked "Would you buy this?" we were told "No. I wouldn't." These guys could have told us yes and banked on the maintenance and repair costs, but they're way too honest for that.
Go to Vargas. You'll get honest pricing, clear communication, and a whole lot of respect.
*I'm not sure if this is actually a free service or if they were just being kind! Don't quote me on it.
Everyone talks about how they want an HONEST mechanic with FAIR PRICES! Well, folks, this company is it! They have worked on my '02 F150 multiple times, and it has always been returned in better mechanical condition than when I dropped it off. They have never tried to find additional problems in an attempt to charge me for unnecessary repairs. They are VERY highly SKILLED mechanics, and can fix just about any mechanical issue with just about any vehicle. They are amazingly honest, and they put in whatever hours are required so that you get your vehicle back, perfectly repaired, as soon as possible! They're amazingly polite and courteous, and the customer service is well beyond what you would expect from an auto shop! They're extremely honest, highly skilled, amazingly fast, unbelievably polite, and if I may say so, I could almost guarantee that you will be a highly satisfied customer. I know this is a cheesy post, but honestly, I haven been extremely satisfied with their service, so many times, that I actually fully mean all of this cheesy post. If they treat you as well as they have me (and look at the other reviews, they treat everyone awesome) then you will not use another repair shop the rest of your life! Honestly, I truly believe this is the best mechanic shop in Utah (and trust me, I've been to dozens)!
Edit as of 9/23, they replaced my clutch in my '02 F-150, they also fixed multiple leaks from the oil and transmission, and more, for no extra labor (replacing the clutch was the labor). My truck is running excellent! These guys do HONEST work at the best prices! You won't go wrong with them! If you need auto repair, no need to shop around, just come to this shop and get the excellent quality at the best prices! I am perfectly happy with them!
I've read a couple bad reviews (very few compared to the majority of 5 star reviews they've EARNED) These complaints are not legitimate. The few that I did look at, I also looked at the profiles of the complainants, and almost all of them had multiple negative reviews of multiple different companies. All that said, if you WANT A GREAT MECHANIC AT A GOOD COST/VALUE, these are the guys. I've already done research on them, they're great. I've used them multiple times and their work has always been done correctly. What else can I say?
Vargas! What can I say? They embrace integrity, kindness, and quick turn around time. I’m pretty impressed! Keep it up!
Had my 1998 Jeep engine rebuilt, new clutch, shocks on all 4 wheels replaced. This is a great repair shop, I don't think they can be beat. Very honest people. I've been taking my vehicles to Vargas Auto Service for many years, I've never been disappointed
We have always had a perfect experience here over the past four years. Vargas senior and junior have always treated us kindly and professionally. The work has always been top quality at a very fair price. They have always been good at quickly getting to a diagnosis and fix that fully address the issues that we've seen in our cars. So happy to have a professional, trustworthy, friendly mechanic.
