Desert Dawg has been in Fountain Hills for a long while originally owned by a senior couple. Then the senior couple retired and sold it to this amazing couple who had years of experience fixing cars. They are great at customer service and do a great job, the waiting room is plush with couches, carpet, a dog bed, candy, and great conversations. In addition, the best prices on LOF any where in Arizona. If you love dogs, they are dog friendly - just come to meet their amazing 2-year-old Great Dane Stella which is as sweet as can be. They have carpet in the waiting area for senior dogs and I often see antique cars stop by as the owners love working on antique autos. Just come to show your car some love, a great conversation or just to hang with Stella!

Always honest and straightforward. This is my third visit. The other two times they wouldn’t even charge me but did tell me what I needed (or didn’t need) to have done. Highly recommended.

They're always great. They outline what needs to be done now and what can wait till the next tune up or 3k miles. They've been working on my 94 Camry wagon, my classic car as a millennial professional, since I got it in 2012. This shop under Jann and Al the previous owner of Desert Dawg have kept it in great shape. They also took care of my wife's car, an 06 Accord, as well for a few years until I sold it.Last year, I just bought a newer Mazda CX5 and will be using them for all maintenance outside of warranty repairs as they are far more competent and honest than the dealers. Now if only I could get a paint job on that Camry as it doesn't look as good as it used to. ??Jann, please let me know if you know anyone who does a good job at a reasonable price. And I hope you get a finder's fee.Thanks so much for all your help all these years. Glad you guys are in town here. I won't consider anyone else to work on my cars.

Fixed a very poorly installed interlock device, had to redo all the wiring and take out my dash. Fixed the problems completely and within two days (considering the scope of the issue a miracle). On top of that they charged the company because of the shoddy installation. Yann is a great guy and this is a great establishment. 10/10 experience.

Hands down the best mechanic in FH. I take that back....BEST IN ARIZONA! Professional, thorough, plus just an all-around nice guy. I can not recommend him and his staff enough! When I do have car issues, I no longer stress knowing that I have a great place like Desert Dawg to take it to. Keep up the great work Yan. You're my superhero mechanic!

Yann and Laetitia are terrific. We take three cars there. Quality work, fair prices and so knowledgeable. When Al and Noreen sold the business some years ago after we'd been with them a decade we decided to stay with the new owners. We're so glad we did. 5 Star for sure. Malcolm & Laura, Scottsdale

I have taken my autos to Yann and the Desert Dawg team for a year or so and continue to be impressed with their trustworthy and thorough approach to repairing autos at a fair price. Recently, Yann worked through a difficult situation on a bad water pump that was just outside its warranty period. He worked with the installer and supplier and was able to secure a cash credit to be applied to our repair bill plus was very reasonable on his labor charges to replace the water pump. Most other repair shops would not have gone to this level of effort to help save a customer money, but Yann did this without hesitation. Yann and Desert Dawg Team - THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

My oil change was sloppy and unfortunately I needed to add two more quarts of oil to my engine because of a leak, they used the wrong plug in my Volkswagen I'm just glad I caught the leak in time.

The crew at Desert Dawg auto repair are great. I have a 2013 Mercedes SL 550 and it's the only place I'll take it for repairs. They use all parts from Mercedes but charge half the going rate to fix the problem. They are reliable, honest and efficient in their work.

These guys are amazing. Our diesel truck was having issues and they spent a day and a half figuring it out. It was throwing confusing errors so it took quite a bit of trial and error to figure out the problem.They worked extra time to get us back on the road and I super appreciate their hard work, honesty and reasonable price and communication.
