Midvale's location at the I-15/I-215 junction makes it one of the most centrally located mid-valley communities.

I-15 / I-215 Interchange
4.5 milesThe I-15 and I-215 interchange near Midvale is one of the most heavily traveled freeway junctions in Utah, handling traffic from the east bench, the airport corridor, and southern suburbs. The interchange's short merge lanes and high traffic volumes create frequent hard braking events—making it one of the main reasons Midvale drivers need more frequent brake and clutch service.
Daily commuters through the I-15/I-215 interchange experience significant brake wear. If you merge here every day, annual brake inspections are a minimum.

What Our Customers Say
Real reviews from Google — 5 stars across the board
“Honest and smart mechanic. Scott will explain what needs to be done. He replaced my water pump and my car is working perfectly! This was after taking it to 2 shops previous to Scott's. He will be my first option from now on. Saved me a ton of money, was honest in his assessment, and fast! 100% recommend!”
“When my previous mechanic told me my car could not be fixed I was desperate and about to get rid of it. But before I gave up I wanted to try one last mechanic. Then I found Scott — brought the car to him and he fixed it quickly like nothing. I couldn't believe it, my car was just running fine. Scott is a genius, he resurrected my dead car!”
“My transmission and clutch went out. Another shop had my car 2 weeks and wanted $5,000. I called Scott's and he went out of his way for my car — did the job in 24 hours for $1,500. Thanks to people like Scott who help out. Thank you again!”
“This is my mechanic — he is great.”
“This guy is the best! Not only did he get my car done the same day, but when I couldn't pull it all the way there he came and pulled it with his own truck and son. Then he even charged my air conditioning! I'm a single mom with no one to really help with car stuff. This means the world to me. Couldn't ask for better help!! Thank you so much you saved the day and more!!! And honest to boot.”
“Scott is a skilled mechanic who provides great service at a fair price. This is my go to place for car repairs.”
