When it comes to finding a Phoenix mechanic that actually knows their stuff, things can get pretty frustrating. There are literally thousands of Phoenix mechanics out there to choose from, so trust me when I tell you that I understand how confusing it can be. After all, there is no better way to find out if a particular mechanic knows what he is talking than comparing his knowledge and understanding of your vehicle to your own, which brings us to the next obvious issue: If you had the knowledge and understanding of your vehicle that you want in your mechanic, then you wouldn’t need a mechanic!

Now, I personally believe that any man that thinks he knows everything is missing the very simple fact that no one knows everything. Because of that belief, I don’t want to tell you that we are the best Phoenix mechanic you can find, as surely there are a handful of honest, down-to-Earth, knowledgable, experienced mechanics in the Phoenix area. With that being said, I will say this: you will be hard-pressed to find someone with the track record that we at Atchinson Automotive carry.

If you have ever done business with Atchinson Automotive, you will surely have a familiar memory of Don Atchinson.

As the manager and senior mechanic of Atchinson Automotive, Don brings more experience to the table than you could ever ask for. With his quirky and “always-toubleshooting-a-vehicle-in-his-mind” attitude, Don personally oversees each and every vehicle that comes our way.

After both training and working as an Auto & Light Truck Tech in the United States Air Force, he tucked his training and experience in his belt and left the service in 1975.

Now a civilian with a passion for automobiles, Don went on to attend, complete, and get certification at both GM and Ford dealer-factory schools.

He the followed that up by becoming A.S.E. certified, earned his Pro-Tech Master Certification from Unocal, and finally worked as a master instructor eventually surpassing 15,000 man hours of training working techs in the automotive field.

Don has since become Better Business Bureau accredited, and is a member of the Automotive Service Association, as well as the National Federation of Independent Businesses.

Oh, did I mention that Don Atchinson is one of only two Phoenix mechanics to ever be recommended on the nationally syndicated automotive talk radio show “Click N’ Clack”?

As you can see, when you bring your vehicle to Atchinson Automotive, you are bringing it to the equivalent of a surgeon with over two decades of training and experience. Nearly any Phoenix mechanic can change out a set of brake pads, or do an oil change, but when you have a real problem with your vehicle, and you want real expertise, knowledge, and experience for the repair, Atchinson Automotive is the place you want to be!
