It's taken me too long to share how amazing this place is. The owner Tommy is a true gem -- always giving me a great deal and never trying to overcharge.... Which is so hard to find in a mechanic. This place has saved me much stress and many a dollar, and as a med student that is invaluable. read more

Tommy and his son run an excellent family shop. They are incredibly nice and professional. They are also fast and deliver high-quality work for an extremely reasonable price. I have had everything from an emissions regulatory circuit, gas tank, oil change, a switch replacement, a flat tire patched, to state inspections done there and I have been satisfied with the service every time. Since I moved to Raleigh in 2021, I have gotten all my work done for my car a Mission Valley Service Station. I would highly recommend their shop to anyone in the NC State to downtown Raleigh area. read more

Loved this place! I am just now dealing with my car issues on my own and was worried about being taken advantage of for that reason but Tommy was very honest, helpful, affordable, and fast! read more

Don't take a hybrid there. Dropped it off t 7 am and called at 130 to see what they found and they tell me they don't work on hybrids

Tommy and his son, Blake, run a top notch family owned business. We have been going to Mission Valley 66 since we moved to Raleigh in 2006. I would recommend their services to anyone. read more

My oldest daughter went to NC State and we used these guys for her repairs and oil change. Now my youngest daughter has been at State and has work done on her car. They have ALWAYS been fair and respectful to the girl and to me when I call. I have such peace of mind knowing a reliable and honest mechanic is right there for my kids! I highly recommend Mission Valley to anyone! read more

If you're looking for an experienced tradesman doing honest work, go here. Note: the associated gas station has changed from 66, it's Resco or something now. read more

Our daughter brought her car in for repairs and was charged almost $500 . She drove it to work the next day and the car broke down and had it towed to another shop closer to work. We called and spoke to Tommy because the spark plugs they just replaced were melted into the coil. It appeared that whatever the problem was with the car was NOT fixed. He stated that there was NOTHING they could do to help fix the situation. He stated "I'm not going to do anything about it". read more

Great service at a very reasonable price. About to take a road trip and feel confident my car will be good for it.

Tommy is absolutely the best! I noticed a knocking noise from the right front of my 08 Honda Fit when I went over a speed bump or hit a pot hole. Thought it was a bad strut. Nope, just a link bar kit and a bolt. He doesn't fix anything that doesn't need fixing. My car was there from 8am to 1pm. If your kid is at NC State this is the place to send them for any car issues. read more

There is no one better than Tommy and his crew. They're fast, pleasant and more than reasonable in their prices! When I visit Tommy and his guys, I feel cared for. They look out for me like I was their daughter or sister or spouse! Repairs and inspections are usually completed earlier than promised and always done with a smile. I even remember several times being shown the bill and saying "that's all?" I recommend them highly and often - without hesitation. I will never go anywhere else! read more

Absolutely fantastic service! Have a son the area and needed troubleshooting, repair and service. Tommy and team wasted no time with diagnostics and repair of the problem. Also accommodated our request to throw in a quick tuneup, tire rotation and inspection. Reasonably priced and very knowledgeable and attentive. I highly recommend Mission Valley. read more

The best experience I have ever had at a car shop. Quick, efficient, and friendly, so lucky to have this place in a big city!

Tommy and his team are excellent. They're knowledgeable, efficient, and services are reasonably priced. My husband and I take our vehicles and have always had good servicing. A couple tips... They do not make appointments and there is not a waiting area. This is a drop off & leave arrangement. read more

Being new to Raleigh, I've been slowly figuring out who to go to for basic services: haircuts, doctor, dentist, tailor, you know the drill! It stinks when you don't get the service you like or feel like you've been ripped off. Recently my poor Isuzu Amigo (best Mexican-Japanese SUV around :) limped into the parking lot spewing steam with no power steering. So finally, the time had come to find a mechanic! Poking around the recommendations list at work, I found an entry for Mission Valley 66, right down the street. The place doesn't look like much: old cars densely parked all around; inside it looks really old school, grease everywhere. But you know what? They did a great job on my SUV at a reasonable price, don't let the looks fool ya! The people there were polite, speedy and honest which is all you could ever ask for in a mechanic. Overall I'm happy with their work and if I need to get another car fixed, I'll be back at Mission Valley 66! read more

Mission Valley 66, or "Tommy's" as its popularly known (after the owner) is my go-to for anything under the hood. He is honest, very fairly priced and to-the-point when it comes to service. No extra selling, no pushing additional, unnecessary work - none of that. He is also extremely flexible with parts and schedule, a rare quality that I've only grown to appreciate more over my years of services with him. He is the best, most honest mechanic in the NCState area. Period. read more

I can't recommend this place enough. Tommy takes care of the people who come to the shop. I have had multiple oil changes, problems with different cars that they have fixed, &I have sent friends here, and we have all had great experiences. Fair prices, great service. Kind and hardworking people. read more

A neighbor referred me to Tommy when I had my 2009 Nissan Murano break down. It needed a new radiator and hoses. I went to the nearest shop who said I needed more than I did, and wanted to charge far more for it. It was just so high so I called around and called around and no one could do it for less, and some couldn't do it at all. I made a post on my neighborhood Facebook group and my friend and neighbor saw it and told me all about how amazing Tommy was with her many cars over many years, and how trustworthy and reliable he is. She even offered to drive me there to pick up my car if I'd have work done there. This guy is fast, he is kind, and he is so very honest. We had my car towed to his shop, site unseen, no face to his name yet, just going on her compelling testimony of Tommy. She was right, and this guy is absolute GOLD. He saved me so much trouble, time and money - he did it in half the time other shops quoted, and for less, and the work he did was perfect. It was about 2 years ago and I have never had any issues with it since!! His business is hopping, and his little parking lot stays slam full, but somehow he still gets everything done in a reasonable or even surprisingly fast time. read more

For routine maintenance and minor repairs you can not find a better deal. If they charge $100 for a service you can bet Firestone or Midas or Jiffy Lube charges $150. They are so honest, and twice now I have taken a vehicle in for something that was nagging and they fixed it free of charge. I worked nearby it for over a year and now I make it a point to drive across Raleigh anytime I need work. Drop it by first thing in the morning and pick it up after work. Love it! read more

The mechanic outright lied to me about my battery!!! Because he didn't want to honor my warranty. My car wouldn't start so I had it jumped but I went to get it checked out anyway to find out why. I came to this place because they deal with Interstate batteries and mine is still under warranty. I waited almost a whole hour before the mechanic tested my battery. And he said it was great, nothing wrong with my battery. Well three days later my car wouldn't start again and I got another jump. Three independent people told me that the battery was no good; they didn't even need to test it because they said it was obvious from the corrosion. Completely dishonest! Not recommended unless you want to be cheated. read more

I just moved into town and I needed an oil change and I had a low tire. They told me I had to drop it off, but since I am new I don't know anyone enough to come and get me and my husband was at work already so I had to get this done somewhere else. The other place I went to was awful and did not inspect my tire for nails. Fast forward a little and I finally see the nail in my tire and I arrange it so that someone can get me. This is the best auto mechanic shop I have ever been to. They plugged my tire in about 10 minutes and it was so cheap that I repeated it back to him. I am use to being charged 25 dollars for a plug, but it was 8 dollars! They have honestly made my day with their great customer service. I told my husband that we have found our car place. Thank you so much guys! read more

Awesome place to take your car for repairs, tires, anything. They really know their stuff, they handle it quickly and efficiently,pricing is fair and reasonable and they are very trustworthy. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Tommy and his crew at Mission Valley 66. After being getting the ring-around at my car's dealership, I went here to get my door fixed. The cost of my door being fixed was only $96 when the dealership estimated over $350. Not only did he save me money, he was incredibly fast and the no appointment needed was amazing. It was the easiest car repair I have ever had. We will not go anywhere else now! read more

A 5 star spot for car repairs. I have been doing regular maintenance in this place and they are great. Fast service, no extra bills or anything like that, honest guys. Tommy says he has been in this place for around 30 years, and I have only heard good things about the place from others too. I trust my car with him. read more

I work at NC State and this shop is right across the street. I had many co-workers that said great things about Tommy and his people so I gave them a try when I needed some repairs (CV axle, blower motor, Freon recharge) and general maintenance (oil change) done to my car. Tommy was up front, quick, and his prices were great. I had two different jobs priced out at two other places and even though Tommy was not aware of the other prices I was quoted he had the best price on both jobs. I feel good that I've been treated really fairly at this shop and that the prices & work are good. I've used them several times since my first experience and had the same positive experience each time. read more

Fabulous service. My NC State student has an old car - away from home, and the power steering went out. She pulled in to Mission Valley 66 at 5:50 PM and they met her at the door and knew what the issue was. By 9:10 the next morning she had a phone call that her car was ready. As a parent, being several hours away makes it difficult to help when auto issues arise. Thankful that we now have an amazing and reliable mechanic in Raleigh. read more

I'll admit I only chose this place because it was open until 7pm (unlike many car repair places) and I wanted to stop by for a quick opinion on why my brake lights weren't working before going to a movie across the street. Tommy was great and helped rule out a few things that night. I brought it back the next morning to fix it and a few other issues. I was told it would take a few hours (which in Meineke terms has usually meant all day) but received a call within 30 minutes of dropping it off that it was ready. Prices were great and the service was so friendly. I highly recommend these guys. read more

Excellent service and great prices. These guys are trustworthy and won't sell you something you don't need.

It seems just like a gas station but Tommy is truly one of the smartest and inexpensive mechanics around. I have taken my old and new, cheap and expensive cars there, and the next day when I pick them up they are always fixed perfectly and the prices are always the best in the state. -Tyler G read more

I'm new to Raleigh and drove my 2002 Pontiac down from Boston. I needed a new car starter which Tommy helped me with at a reasonable price. Before I towed it to the garage he gave me little things to check just in case it didn't need to be towed instead of going straight for the money. He is genuine and I would recommend this place to anyone. read more

Wonderful place! Got the bottom plate on my Camry fixed for 15 dollars! The people there are so nice, I would definite make it my regular place for repairs. read more

Not a pleasant experience at all. I was told it was going to be $100 to have my car fixed. I was then charged $196.64, and was told the parts were more costly than he estimated... Then I was told it was going to cost $200 for a battery, not including the labor. I refused to have the battery done, but when I got home I checked on the cost of the battery and it was well under $100 at three different locations... DON"T GO THIS PLACE IF YOU DON"T WANT TO GET RIPPED OFF! read more

The people at Mission Valley 66 have been taking care of our family's cars for over a decade. We have always received excellent service for a reasonable price. They are professional and trustworthy. We recommend them without reservation; the service at Mission Valley 66 is the best we've ever received. read more

I have been using this repair shop since I moved to Raleigh in 2016. They have always been quick, efficient and honest. Recently I went in to have the motor in my window fixed. they said they would call when car was ready in about 2 hours. My phone was also broken at the time so I said I would just come back in two hours. I told them I was walking over to the bagel shop. I was at the bagel shop for about an hour when the owner rolled up in my car. They had fixed it within the hour and driven over to give me a ride. Service like this is rare to come by. Quality place! read more

Absolutely the best repair shop I've ever worked with. Honest about prices and labor. I didn't want to repair the car and asked to simply sign over the title. He actually went and sold the car for me and gave me the money. It is awesome to work with someone so honest and hard working. read more

Mission Valley 66 is my favorite mechanic in Raleigh. They provice quality, fast and affordable car repairs. When a ball joint in my truck went bad they were able to relace all 4 for me for the same price another shop quoted me to replace just the one, and they did a great job. I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

My spouse and I have been taking our cars to Mission Valley 66 for 13 years, and recommend them to everyone we know who needs a good mechanic. They are honest, reasonably priced, and do a great job. They are not perfect, but I can think of very few times that I've been dissatisfied in all that time. My parents have been taking their cars to Tommy for at least 20 years, and they would say the same. read more

The best and most honest service I've ever gotten! I'm 70, so that's saying a lot! Tommy, the owner of Mission Valley 66, is the best! My sons and I have been going there for 10 years. read more
