Highly recommend Petes Service center in Burbank Illinois. Ted is very professional and honest and does all of his research prior to updating you on what wrong with your vehicle and though he could have lead me down a path of spending tons of money on a new transmission he was honest, the money I would have had to spend was alot more than the blue book value of the vehicle. He was generous enough to let me leave the vehicle at the shop without charging me so I could figure out what I was going to do. They care about their neighbors, he even provided the tools and assisted my husband with trying to remove the front license plates which was on with special screws and overly tight. If your looking for an reliable and reasonable auto repair shop please check out Petes in Burbank Illinois. Great people.
Ted and Shelly at Pete’s service center are such great people to work with. They are always honest about what needs to get done and do a great job of making sure they do quality work at affordable prices. They go above and beyond to make sure you understand the services being provided and are always happy to answer any questions you might have. There’s no better place to take your car for minor and major fixes!
I was introduced to Pete’s service center through my work vehicles being serviced there. They were able to repair an issue with one of the work vehicles that the dealership attempted several times to repair. The whole staff is very pleasant and polite. This just says how great the owners are to their employees. I will always bring my vehicles here for service. Things are done with a fair price and timely manor.
This family owned business is the BEST by far. They are honest in what your car truly need. I was always being overpriced at the dealership.They even assisted me this year on one of the citys coldest nights with a tow. My starter died. They didnt hesitate to assist me and get my car serviceable the next day.I trust them with my vehicle implicitly!Thanks!!!Lynn Jerdine
Great people. They are very fair and they do great work. They put new brakes on my dodge. They were half the price of Firestone.
The best car service center Ive ever frequented. Been going there for years. Petes is a staple business in the Burbank area. Their service is excellent and thorough. I take my car there for all my servicing needs and have recommended them to countless others. Ted and Shelley are credible people and do their best to take care of their customers. They dont add unnecessary work to their quotes and have competitive prices. The guys in the garage are knowledgeable and work hard to ensure quality service.
Everyone was very friendly and helpful, and the mechanics did a great and quick job at a fair price, even staying behind after closing hours to let me pick my car up. If you’re looking for a shop you can trust, look no further.
Great family business! Very helpful and great price and service. I will definitely be back. Thanks!
Best place ever. Fixes car spend time checking every thin. Alway pay what they’ve quoted. Highly recommend them
Customer service here is unmatched. Ive come here for a multitude of car issues and have never found a problem with the repairs or the service. Good and honest people here.
They are always very reliable. I always get the information that I need to make the right decision. I would totally recommend this shop to everyone
The nicest family you ever would meet. And they do awesome work on your car. Best car mechanics I have ever did business with.
I have been using Petes for about 10 years now. They are honest and more than fair with their prices. I have 2 teenage boys with cars, so Petes is like a second home to us. Theyve done everything from oil changes to engine replacements for us. They even try to help out with the labor for us, when they are able. They are friendly and professional. I usually dont give reviews, but felt it necessary after seeing a post from Mr. Aranda. I happened to be at Petes when he was on the phone screaming and swearing at Shelly, the office manager. I could hear him clear as day, and NO ONE gets paid enough to deal with that. What kind of a man speaks to woman, any woman, like that. He should be ashamed of himself. I hope the owner asks him to take his business elsewhere.
Ive taken my work van a few times here for major repairs, tried to form a relationship with these guys but impossible with the lack of professionalism. I lost my patience with them after being lied to everytime, forgave them every single time because I know how it can be running a business but they said they would have it ready by a certain time and failed to deliver every single time. The last straw was them not repairing the issue that needed to be repaired. I never lose my patience, which is one reason I have so much business but these guys really pushed me and the owner literally told me to take my vehicle somewhere else, I dont like dealing with people that cant control their emotions in a place of business so I will take my vehicles elsewhere and I suggest everyone avoid this place.
Fantastic service, great prices, and a phenomenal staff who helped me out so much. Would 10/10 recommend
I spent 3,000 with on my tires suspension system and still have problems that I still got to get address. This is the third time. Tire popped off as I was headed on the expressway and now my brake are peak ng fluid
Pete’s is the spot to go! Great service for a really decent price. Every time I have issues with my car that’s where I go.
Great place to get any automotive work done. I got air conditioner replaced. Pete does a professional job. I will be using petes ftom now on.
Been using Pete’s service for years and they always go above and beyond.Thanks again. I would highly recommend them to my family and friends
Pete’s did a great job working on my car! Will recommend them to my friends
As always the best service they go beyond necessary and reasonable fair price
Knowledgeable and helpful highly recommend. James was friendly and charming
Able to find several issues that were affecting the engine. Mechanical and electrical
Ted is very honest and I recommend this business to anyone
I had significant repairs to my car and I cant express how helpful/genuine all the staff were. It was obvious that they care about their clients as they did not force any services on me and explained everything in detail. I will never take my car anywhere else.
Had my wheel bearings put in on my sonata, couldnt be more happy with the price and service!!! Ty so much for looking out for the little people. Greatly appreciated and also anyone who need work this is the place to go!!!
So this was an actual conversation via phone with the lady from the front desk...... (Got the prices for tire rotation/wheel alignment)Me: ok, so would I be able to bring the car in tomorrow?Her: Were closed on SundaysLoooooooong pause. 🤨Me: ok, so what about Monday?Her: Were booked Monday.Looooooooooooooooooooonger pause.....crickets 🧐Me: ok, thank you? I guess? That was strange.Click.I just dont understand, either you dont want the business or idk whats going on. A competent person would have said something along the lines of Im sorry were booked Monday, but let me see what else we have available.Needless to say, Im grateful she conducted herself in such a way with me before I actually took my car in. After such an awkward interaction and looking at the one star reviews, looks like I dodged a bullet with this shop.
Was considering taking my vehicle here but after seeing how they treat their customers, I will be avoiding.
This guy is nice and u check go her
Ive been going to Petes service center for all of my car maintenance/repairs both small and large since 2014. Ted and Shelly always make me feel welcome and go above and beyond when it comes to customer service. They are very accomodating when fitting you in, especially when an emergency happens. I no longer live in the area, but still drive the 30-60minutes depending on traffic, for all of my car needs because they take care of me and always offer fair pricing for services done. Its so hard finding a mechanic you can trust as a woman without feeling taken advantage of, and I will continue coming to Petes until I no longer need a car!
By far the best repair shop. Tired of taking my car everywhere and not getting it fixed correctly, search no more. This place is amazing and all staff is super supportive and willing to help in any way. Best place ever. Cant express how thankful and blessed to have found them.
This place is a good place u check go her
Highly recommend this place.
The front desk girl is very incompetent, she shows no intrest in giving a better customer service.
My ex was great, they were very nice made sure they let me know what I needed to get done, very reasonable . They will be my car repair shop. Happy
Very trustworthy people. I consider myself a backyard mechanic, (jack of all trades master of none). This is the only shop I will bring my truck or any other vehicle of mine to. I found it hard to trust mechanics in the past but Pete’s is the best shop I have ever been to even over the dealerships. They understand the meaning of customer service!
Had a miscommunication on price, but the work was done very well so no complaints
They were able to fix it. Priced reasonably and work was done in a timely matter. So far so good.
Very professional, I highly recommend Pete’s!
Teds the best! Shelly is so helpful and friendly! Best shop ever!
It was a classy experience with concerns about the well-fare of its customers
Just started bringing my car to this shop. 2010 Nissan Altima with over 180k miles. Recently had brake work, oil change done. Also had an issue with water retaining in the front passenger door. They were able to fix it. Priced reasonably and work was done in a timely matter. So far so good.
Had a water pump and timing belt with coponents installed. Did a great job. AND they are all so nice. Will be doing a lot of referrals.
Great local place, family owned and very friendly. They worked on my Trailblazer and were able to diagnose an issue that a few other shops couldnt figure out. Honest and fair prices. Will be back for all my car needs. Highly recommend.
Not too bad of a place lots of cars there so your car could be sitting there for several weeks before it get touched needs to be a little bit more organized
I been going to Pete’s Service Center since I bought my car about a year and a half ago. They have given me the best service and everyone is very friendly. They know how to work with you and your car and they definitely get the job done for you. Regular consumers they know by first name and what they have did to your car. I always recommend my family and friends to go there. Since I got my car I haven’t took it to any other place. They have excellent service!
Looking for a trustworthy company to service your vehicle? Pete’s Service Center is the place to go. I have been coming to them for years and will not take my car anywhere else. Great owners and amazing customer service!!
This family owned establishment has been in Burbank since 1988 and very family friendly and always honest about there repairs. And very good employees and pretty good on prices. Best tire repair guy on the south side..
I have been going to Pete’s Service Center for all our cars for years and every time they do an awesome job! The owners are super friendly, knowledgeable and I know I’m getting the best service and price around! I Highly recommend them!!
Literally the best price for 10 star work wish I could give then 100 stars honestly
Ive been bringing my cars to Ted for many years, hes very professional and knowledgeable about all things automotive. Ive recommended him to family and friends and theyve never had a complaint. 6 STARS ******Very friendly staff and Shellys the best
Such a Wonderful Surprise! I am no where close to home & receive a message on my dashboard saying that the car is getting hot. Not knowing much about automobiles, I googled the closest Car Service & Pete’s Service Center popped up. I pulled in, told them that my car was beeping & saying that it is hot on the dashboard. One of the mechanics took it in, corrected the issue & I was out of there in less than 20 minutes. Thank you for such prompt service & making me feel so welcomed in your establishment. Truly appreciated.
Been coming here for 20 years. I wouldnt go anywhere else. Ted and Shelly are the best!!!!
I just moved to the area and needed a place to bring my cars for repair. I have two cars and they both needed some work. When I brought my car to Petes they were very honest and told me what I really needed and what could wait. My budget is limited so I really appreciated that they were so honest and didnt try to sell me a lot of work. They were very friendly and I was happy with the quality of work and time in which they were able to fix my cars. If you are looking for an honest place that wont lie and do good work at affordable prices, I would recommend Petes as your go to place.
Their tow came quickly and towed to their shop. My car was repaired in a matter of hours. Very pleasant folks!
The young lad who swapped out my Civic Si tires was great, friendly and helpful.Overall, loved the experience and Petes Service Center had competitive prices and good customer service.Dealers should learn from them
Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Dropped my car off for service and they promptly called me with an estimate and had my vehicle ready at the time they said it would be ready. They will continue to have my business. I recommend this facility to all of my family and friends.
I had a great experience getting my car maintenance services. It was quick, everyone was friendly and the waiting bay was clean. Will definitely use them for further issues with my car!
Great service and always honest!
Recently took my Lexus RX over to Petes upon a recommendation from a very close friend of mine. My front brakes were making some kind of crazy scratching sound turns out rotors were damaged the car has been sitting for 6 months on attendant they were warped apparently I spoke with Tim one of the mechanics there he assured me that was the issue and they took care of it within 24 hours. I strongly recommend anyone that needs vehicle maintenance or large repairs done to go to Petes the price they quoted me was more than fair in fact it came out to be less when they were done they have a customer for life In Me a true five-star rating.
I have been coming here for many years and trust them completely for all of my repair work. They are good honest people who do good work at fair prices. I highly recommend Petes for all of your automotive repairs!
They fixed my rear light cable of my electric scooter huge thank you!!!
Ive been coming to this place service center for all of my car maintenance. I can confidently say that they are the best mechanics Ive ever met. Good customer service, prices and quick service!
What a great EXPERIENCE, I highly recommend Petes Auto Service, friendly staff . I recently had a Radiator replaced there and it was completed in one day . Family owned business the owners are Awesome! They are there on a daily basis working all hours of the day. Very reasonable pricing and honest, not trying to sell you something you dont need. Its worth going out of your way to use their service.Give them a call for your next car repair.
Weve been going to Petes for a few years now and have had nothing but excellent service. Everyone there is so friendly and being a women its a great mechanic shop that I trust and feel comfortable going there. The prices are always fair and I never feel like Im being over charged. I would never think of going anywhere else! Thank you guys for everything!!
Great! Honest and outstanding automotive repairs
Used to go to them for years to get oil changes and always thought they were pretty honest and fair with prices.Last couple of years we have had to take cars back for leaking oil after oil changes. We were told they forgot to put cap on right. We have also have had to take our cars back on more than one occasion so they can reset the oil meter after oil changes. We were told sometimes they forget.Started to get the sense from the lady at the front desk that she was more interested in business than quality service but gave them benefit of the doubt since we had been going for years.Recently took a car in for a full inspection so we can get our son on the road with a semi dependable car. We were given a quote for rear shocks, timing belt, and alternator and said everything else looked good. We decided to get our own parts (bad idea?) and decided to just have them do the labor and we got an oil change as well. Two weeks later we take it back for leaking oil thinking they forgot to put the cap on right again and instead we were quoted another $300. This time time we were told they must have forgot to check the bottom of the car during the full inspection and they missed a rusted oil pan that was leakingduring the inspection. They said they arent perfect and the lady at the front was just smiling the whole time when I picked up the car which was weird. The gentlemen was somewhat apologetic but we could no longer trust leaving my car there and expect quality work.My advice would be to cover all bases before getting the work done and maybe shop around for a couple of quotes before getting the work done at any mechanic so you dont go back every two weeks and keep dishing out your hard earned money.
Customer service was good family owned business there technicians are well versed in automotive repair and prices were reasonable.
Had my car repaired here! The car looked brand new when I picked it up. Its nice knowing that the owner is involved every step of the way and guarantees the work they do. I highly recommend them!
Great service, nice people! Did more than I asked & had my vehicle running like a champ. Quality work with superb diagnostics. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
They fix my car and they took it to the emission test and pass it for me . Very recommend.
Great guys in this shop. They never advise for unnecessary work and work on your car in timely manner. They are honest and genuine and take good care of my car.
We have been taking our cars to Petes Service Center for a number of years. They are honest and dependable and do excellent work. Their customer service is fantastic as well. We would not bring our cars anywhere else!
Professional friendly and quality work... No complaints from me!
Quick fast and very efficient guys! Keep up the good work guys!.
Professional friendly and quality work... No complaints from me!
This was my first time sending my vehicle here. My experience with Petes Service Center was nothing short of outstanding! They took great care of me and fixed up my car in no time.
Unprofessional and unethical
I brought my car here and the service was great and the car was returned to me running better than ever. There were no greasy handprints all over my car like past car shop did. I will not go anywhere else to get my car fixed. Thank you so much for the amazing service
The only thing I can say about this place is that one employee in particular is not an honest person. So why continue to take my Vehicle there. I started taking my vehicles to Pete when I moved to Burbank. Yes my vehicles were old because thats what I was able to afford. This year I was in the market for a more reliable vehicle which I was going to purchase with my taxes. I called Petes because I know they sell vehicles, what better than to buy a vehicle from a mechanic or so I thought. When I called them to see what they had employee Anthony answered the phone and informed me that he had an Envoy for sale because he was saving to buy a house. I trusted him and went to look at the vehicle. Since I trusted him and we had a business relationship with Petes I bought the vehicle for a pretty penny I might add, didnt have the vehicle for 3 weeks when on a trip to celebrate my sons bday in Wisconsin the transmission gave out I not only had to get the car towed from Wisconsin to Chicago, but when I called Anthony he refused to help at one point he hung up on my husband, he wouldnt take my cars and when he finally answered my tex he literally laughed on the Tex telling me that I had signed a contract stating as is and there was nothing I could do. If you have employees like that working with you what am I to think of the time that my husband took his Hyundai for one thing and a month later it was junked, and the time that I took my Mitsubishi and I was told that it had an internal oil leak in the engine but that if I got what I took it to get fix in order for it to pass the inspection that the car would still last about a year, broke down in the highway a month after because of the oil leak in the engine. Makes me wonder. Never will I take my Vehicle there again and will not recommend they got their one star because I have to pick a star.
Very honestGood serviceCar was ready when promised
This is a shop you can trust and feel welcomed. I highly recommend Petes and can say this for only visiting them 1 time. From the minute I talked to them on the phone untill my car was fixed they were proffessional, friendly, fair, caring, and efficient .My car broke down a few blocks away and was towed to Petes. They quickly diagnosed the problem and called me with an estimate. I told them I need to drive to work the next day and I truly believe they made it a priority to get it done quickly for me. There pricing was fair for the quality work and parts.Want to say thank you to Shannon at the front desk, Ted, and the one mechanic who talked to me when I picked the car up. Because of you all my car was fixed very quickly and my day turned into a good day.
They replaced the whole front end on my 2005 G6 and now the car rides like its brand new. Thankful I was referred to them and thankful to Petes Service for the great work!
Kinda expensive but do a very good job no bs they fix exactly whats wrong with car.
We always take out cars here. These guys are honest and do good work.
They forgot to tighten all the lug nuts but one on a wheel when they did brake work. They couldnt fix the issue correctly on my moms car but they still took the money!!! There are better shops, keep looking!!!
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! I wish i could give this place ZERO STARS! My husband and I have taken our car here a few times in the past and because the people were so nice he/we over looked the subpar service and settled for the patch and go. Well this time our car was returned to us DAMAGED! We were told we needed a new alternator and when we picked our car up our gas hand was broken! The owner insisted he did not do it and refuse to fix it! He tried to charge us another $100 for the gas hand that he broke. They also had our car for 6 days to replace the alternator. On day five they gave our car back, we got 2 lights up the street stopped at a store and the car did not start. THE CAR WAS NOT FIXED thus we had to take it back for them to play with it yet another day. SAVE YOUR TIME DONT GO TO THIS RINKY DINK PLACE. Dont fall for the polite niceness they are masking it over the horrible service!
Ive been bringing all my cars here for years they are always honest and always inform me on the problem before they fix it. Ted always takes care of me, keep up the good work!
They take good carer of my car and make me feel like family

Little pricey but good service. Very friendly & helpful people!
Why did I feel so diseased after coming to this place. They deceive you at the welcoming good Mechanics to fix your car. Wow my 16 optima became a reck here. I feel hurt of this kind of rude business.Nonetheless I will gice you my honest for the overall service. 2 stars (for the warm welcoming).Best wishes all! :)Abbin
Take my caravan there for all my service needs. There the best place around the area that do an excellent job, and treat you well.
Had to have a car towed. Great service.
WOW!!!... where to begin..... I am dissapointed in my last and FINAL experience with Ted and his whole crew at petes service center. I have been coming here for services on my car and also my familys cars since 2004. This place was nothing but the best and I felt comfotable leaving my car there for any kind of service that was needed. I take care of my car and keep up with preventative maintenance always. I drive a lot, so i constantly need an oil change at least 3 times a month and this was the place I brought my car to. My last oil change was on 2/13/2017. I smelled something burning from the exhaust and decided to open up the hood, just to find out they didnt properly secure the oil cap andoil was splashed all over the engine bay. Anthony was very rude and acting tough even though he was at fault. Anthony said he did the oil change himself. Ted agreed to steam clean my engine at his place of choosing, not at the dealer where I wanted because this is a brand new 2016 car and I didnt want anything to void my warranty. Instead of apologizing to me or giving me credit on my next service or something to show courtesy and sympathy, Ted hands me the address and phone number to the detail shop he deals with and tells me these exact words: Hey, do me a favor, after this steam cleaning dont bring me your car. Great just great. Is that how you treat a customer? What a shame after all these years. Never again. Beware people.
I have nothing but great things to say about Ted & the crew . They are honest, helpful & Their prices are extremely reasonable. Definitely recommend them!
Definitely worth it to go thereThank guys.
They work with u on the price
My BMW wasnt running right we were stuck, Call for a Tow . He suggested, near by and Open, Petes Service Center . Towed me there I spoke to the owner Shelly & Ted, and mechanic they took care of my problem .Thank you & the tow guy, too.
Great service great people honest sad about some of the negative reviews some people are miserable and will never be satisfied.
