We've been doing what's right for years ... and word is getting out.
It starts with our Mission Statement:
"We provide ethical automotive repair, consultation, and long term automotive planning for our customers. We help clients determine their objectives for their automotive needs and work with them to meet their objectives.
"We are committed to developing strong, long-term relationships with clients, their families, and businesses providing the best possible service and products for them.
"We provide this service with a high level of integrity, fairness, sensitivity, honesty, trust and trustworthiness. We obey all the laws, in fact and in spirit, and we will always do the right thing, in every situation, to the best of our abilities. And if we miss this high level, we will do whatever is required to make amends.
"We are committed to our families, employees and community. We maintain balance between our practice and our family life. We provide opportunities for our employees to grow in their career. We are active in the community and use our resources to help others."
A Family Business Since 1958
The family business started in 1958 in Phoenix, AZ. In 1959, our patriarch opened a Humble Oil Gas Station on the SE corner of 44th Street and Thomas Road (pictured left in December 1963). The land behind the gas station was a farm and some customers brought their car in for an oil change and let their children play with the lambs on the farm behind the station. That location was run by the family for 30 years until the lease expired and the new mall was to be built. From there, the second generation purchased facilities of their own and have continued to serve the community they have grown up in!
Cub Scout Pack #343 participated in the opening ceremonies of the Humble Oil Gas Station in December 1963. Notice the fourth scout from the left? That's little Tony Guido, now the self-named "silent owner" of 25th Street Automotive. His mother was den mother of the cub scout troop.
Business Ethics Awards Finalist
25th Street Automotive was a finalist for the Better Business Bureau's "Business Ethics Award". Businesses of all types and sizes were nominated from all over the state. The awards were based on a lot of factors including: employee training, standing in the community, business reputation, quality of work and other factors. 25th Street Automotive is proud to have been one of the finalists for our size business.
KTAR's Best Car Repair Shops in Arizona
25th Street Automotive is recognized as one of the best shops in Arizona on KTAR's Under the Hood with Mark Salem. After much scrutiny TV 3's car guy Mark Salem listed us as one of the best auto shops in the metro Phoenix area and does so each year since our first year of business. This distinction is only given after the shop has been referred by customers and passed the careful inspection of Mark Salem and his team. Like our customers, he finds us among the best in town!
