Pete's Automotive Inc.

Pete's Automotive Inc. Pete's Automotive is a Family owned and ran business willing to go that extra mile to make our customers safe! "Pete and Tim are amazing mechanics. Chicago IL.

When I first got my car, I had problems kept charging me for things they "thought" were the problem. Finally after $400 I found Petes Auto and Pete looked at it and knew what it was immediately and fixed it at no charge. They have been working on my car for the past 2 years since I bought it. I completely trust them and I definitely don't feel like I'm being taken advantage of. I will continue to

bring my car here and recommend them to others."

Dealership told me this tire can’t be patched and tried to sell me a brand new one for $470.

Apparently a tiny hole in the side area suddenly means the whole tire is trash now. Funny how every time you go to the dealership the only repair option is the most expensive one possible. They didn’t even hesitate, just straight to “needs a tire.”

I asked them what happened to patches and plugs and the advisor starts talking about “liability” and “safety zone” like this thing is about to explode if I drive it across the parking lot. Meanwhile I’ve seen people plug holes twice this size and drive another 50k miles.

It’s always the same story.
You come in for something simple
They find something wrong
And somehow the fix is never $30, it’s always $500+.

I swear dealerships act like tires are single-use items now. 🤔💬🚗🛞

Useful tip, Most vehicles have a recirculation button with the AC controls in their cars. Many of us are unsure when to use it.

The answer is to use it in the summer!

The recirculation button simply takes the air from inside the car and recirculates it in the cabin instead of pulling fresh air from outside. On days like today when it is miserably hot outside, if you do not recirculate the cooler air in the cabin, than your AC system is pulling hot air from outside and trying to cool it. Using the recirculation feature will get your car cooler and will decrease the wear and tear on your AC system.

- Side note, if your car has been baking in the sun, its better to roll the windows down for the first minute or so to get rid of the super hot air inside the car.

Also, any time you are stuck in traffic ( summer or winter) be sure to use the recirculate. If you are pulling air from outside, then you are pulling in all the pollutants and carbon monoxide from all the traffic. Studies show that recirculating your air can cut down on the pollutants entering your vehicle by 20%!
