Peterson Auto Sales

This review has been a long time coming. I purchased 2 cars from Monte at Peterson Auto in 2018 and 2019. They were recommended to me by a mechanic who was inspecting a vehicle for me (the inspection didn't go well), and they told me to go to Peterson because they always tell the mechanic to fix anything they can find wrong. I bought the first car in cash (2011 Mazda3), and they let me take it home after giving them a check that couldn't even be cashed until my insurance paid me.

I'm still driving that car today. The only issue it ever had was a dead battery the first time I drove it. I called Peterson and they replaced it for me that day. The second car I bought was a gift for my boyfriend (2016 Toyota Corolla 20k-ish miles.) They managed to get me financing with my credit union, and my credit was really not good at the time. Monte also drove my car home for me so that I could get.

It's vehicles back, and then rode with me back to the dealership. They even gave me a giant bow to put on the car. The Corolla has been a champ with absolutely zero issues. I live in California now and I'm once again shopping for a vehicle. You better believe that I will be flying to Utah to buy my next car.

Really solid dealership. Love to recommend this place to friends and family. I purchased a van for my business a few years ago and had some minor issues (not due to the dealer) and they were extremely helpful and even covered the cost for some of the fix. Great company, honest, and we're super fair with me the entire process.

Wowie zowie! That was by far the best vehicle experience ever! I was treated like a valued family member or treasured friend. Whenever I need a vehicle I will go straight to Peterson's, and it is a day trip from where I live.

I bought a really cute Honda Civic here back in December, and it was such an amazing experience, I worked with Kanden and Jeanne, they were both super helpful and made my first car buying experience completely stress free. Not to mention they were so sweet, I was telling Jeanne about where I work as we were waiting for the financial process to be complete and she gave me $5 to go buy something nice for lunch at my work, which was so sweet. My car is in great condition and the quality is amazing. I definitely recommend getting your car here, they really care about helping their customers.

I just bought a car here today and had an INCREDIBLE experience! Jason helped me and never once tried to pressure me into a car. Not only was he extremely helpful, he was so great with my kiddo as well, offering him a coloring book and cookies. I will 100% recommend this company to all my friends and family!

Peterson Auto has always been fair and honest. Easy to work with, much better than other dealers. Would highly recommend them

Peterson Auto is a great place to go for your next car or trade in! They were very mindful of my budget and helping me get the most ideal payments. Jason explained all the details / financing in a clear professional manner while being kind and honest. I feel like I got an amazing deal but that's just how they treat everyone. I would recommend them to anyone.

This place advertises "good credit, bad credit, no credit" but in actuality they only want to sell a car that they can make money off of! They smile to your face and act like they are a GREAT DEALERSHIP, when in fact they won't even try to help you finance a car unless it's a money maker for them. Instead of being upfront and honest they choose to act like they want your business then tell you it's too "late" to do your financing" then call you the next day telling you that they can't get it done- no explanation as to why and acting as if you wasted their time!

I experienced a roll of the eyes and disdain for my not so perfect credit - the finance- owner needs a lesson in customer service and attitude.she is rude, and made me feel like I was wasting her time. Potential buyers "beware" this is not a dealership that puts the customer first.

I had a good experience finding and testing the vehicle. They allowed time to look all into it and was no pressure or pestering. The staff were all nice and did their work well. The week after purchase I noticed a grinding in the car after each cold startup. The grinding was the VTC actuator that leads to damage in the engine and timing chain. You don't hear the grind unless it hasn't been turned on for a day or two so I never heard it when I went to look at it/drive it.

I was really bummed since my new low mileage reliable car had an issue, but purchased "as is" I figured there was nothing I could do. But Mike saved the day! He offered to investigate the issue and fix it. I was genuinely shocked but he told me he only sells quality. I dropped off the vehicle and they fixed it for me. They even loaned me a vehicle to use for three days while they did the work.

My mechanic had quoted the fix at $1100 so it is a big deal! I am really impressed and appreciate the service going above and beyond what is required. Honest folk and will recommend

This is an exceptional small family business. They were all so kind and made us feel like part of their family. I felt like we were getting special treatment but I know that is just the great service they give every day. A special shout out to Monte and Jeanne. Monte was our kind and genuine salesmen while Jeanne helped us every step of the way and got us the financing we needed to get into our much needed passenger van.

My wife and kids love the car. Thanks for your honesty and expertise that helped us make the right decision. Great job Peterson family! All of the employees/family members are great! Keep up the great work! If we ever need a car again we will be back.

Mike, the owner, is the most honest car salesman/owner, I have ever dealt with. I bought a great car from him years ago, it was a great choice, and he was a lot of help in that decision. This past week I took a car to him to possibly buy. He didn't give me a run around, he was honest in his dealings and just a good all around person. He is true to his work. I would recommend anyone to his place!

I had a wonderful experience buying a van from these fine folks. They were awesome to work with and very personable. Went in as a customer and came out feeling like a friend. I would highly recommend if your looking for a car to go check them out.

We drove 500 miles to look at a jeep based on their reviews and they lived up to the five star reputation Friendly, great to work with, professional, fast, and fair. Best dealership experience I've ever had. Glad we went with Peterson Auto

Good people to work with. I was hesitant to sell my old car because I didn't want to go through a dealership again (horror stories). I found the car I liked and read some reviews and can vouch these guys are honest. They were pleasant to work with and I don't feel like I was taken advantage of. Thanks for making the process less stressful.

I stumbled onto this place because we were looking for a specific vehicle, and these folks had one. The staff was friendly and helpful. We ended up purchasing the vehicle we were looking at. Soon after the purchase the check engine light came on (worst nightmare for a used car!). We got back in touch with Peterson and even though they were not at all obligated to help us, they insisted that they make things right, which they did. The vehicle is great. I'd recommend these guys to anyone and we will be customers in the future. Good dealership and great people.

Normally, I wouldn't have gone to a dealer that I'm not familiar with. I was recommended Monte by a friend. I called and spoke with him first. He was ready to answer my questions and I felt like he really heard me. We went on Friday afternoon, they were busy. We arrived and they already had keys ready for us to take the car I was interested in for a test drive.

I really love the car. We were still unsure if we wanted to commit to the payment. Monte and Jeanne told us to go home and sleep on it, they would hold the car. Certainly unexpected in this crazy used car market! They could see I was concerned. When he added they didn't just want to sell us a car, they wanted to sell us five - I knew we would be back.

We returned Saturday and purchased the car. No negotiations, The price was already fair. I was surprised when signing our paperwork, they'd done us yet another solid. I'm grateful and thankful. We will but our cars from this family from this point forward. Customers for life!

They took the stress out of car buying. They were laid back, yet helpful. My first dealership experience and I truly enjoyed it. I'm so happy with my purchase!

When we purchased our propane fueled van I had asked the salesman how easy it was to find a place to refuel, he stated it was like filling up natural gas. We are scared to take our van on a trip because of how hard it is to find a place that fills propane vehicles. They had included a stereo with our vehicle and they installed it. Today for the first time I attempted to plug in the USB and the entire stereo slide back behind the dashboard.

I now have to take apart the dashboard and reinstall the stereo. Updated to one star, because I had the pleasure today of discovering that the cheap new tires they installed on our vehicle like to go flat. But the kicker was when I went to replace the flat and discovered that there was no spare. Lucky I wasn't stuck on in the middle of no where with my kids in the van when I discovered this. In short it's obvious that Peterson Auto doesn't care about repeat customers. They just want to sale you and be done.

Amazing honest family owned business. I get why they've been in the business so long. I've never been treated with this kind of customer service and the genuine people they are, will always make me refer people to them.

The way this family business operates makes me wish I've never bought a vehicle anywhere else. Very honest and dedicated to holding a valued business. The customer service you experience is rooted from the top with how genuine the family is. There definitely is a reason they've been around for 35 years. Thanks to everyone there for helping me find the truck I was looking for.

Everyone I worked with was fantastic. From lot tech to salesperson to financier. Loving my new Nissan Frontier!

I bought my car from them about 6 months ago, and I'm still loving it. Being that this was my 3rd car in 5 years, I thought I'd have so many issues; especially with my poor credit and not wanting a co-signer. But, with a lot of negotiation between the siblings (salesman and financier), I was able to get my car completely by myself. You hear a lot of scary stories about businesses that are operated by members of a family. However, the Peterson's are great people. Thank you for helping a girl out!

Great people Jeannie is very cool, gave me a great deal and worked awesomely with me on the financing. Looked far and wide to find a small 4x4 truck with lower miles and great condition and was lucky had this one! Highly recommend.

The lady here told me the damage my mechanic found wasn't actually damaged. She wanted over book value and refused to work with me on the price at all. She interrupted me mid sentence and told me 30 seconds before I was going to make an offer that this isn't the car for me. She even complained that selling it for what kbb says is a fair purchase. price in perfect condition wouldn't be profitable enough because she would only make $1500 profit on the vehicle.

The gentleman I talked to on the phone before coming up seemed much more reasonable. I had a terrible experience here and have been pretty mad about the way I was treated like some stupid kid they can take advantage of. If you go here.

Had an amazing experience with Peterson Auto. Felt like I was talking to friends and family, not a car dealership. They were honest and kind and truly made me feel welcome. Two weeks after I bought my car, my. radiator fan completely broke and they even helped me with the cost to get it fixed. They seriously go above and beyond for you and I will definitely be coming back for my next car.

Such awesome people to work with, honest and willing to do whatever they can to make you happy. I highly recommend speaking with them before you make your next automotive purchase.

Today was the 2nd time picking up a vehicle from the friendly people at this establishment. Very professional, extremely friendly/personable staff(makes you feel at home), and I went there with a budget and they helped me into something that is worth more than I paid and met my price/standard. They are not pushy, they only sell clean titled vehicles at amazing prices, and they make the car buying experience feel effortless. Anytime you are in need of a vehicle it would be very wise to pass all those little shops on state to go to this genuine, friendly, and honest dealer to see for yourself how amazing the Peterson family really is. You will be amazed beyond words!

After searching for a while on finding a car that fit my needs and still did it's job, i came to Peterson Auto with my uncle. having worked here for years, he highly recommended them, said they treated customers with care and respect, and made sure everyone left happy and safe with a car of their dreams. THEY DID NOT DISAPPOINT. i've already told. two of my friends about their exemplary service and well-rounded team of professionals. they know their stuff, but they make you feel so comfortable you have no problem talking to them with ease. visit them today if you're shopping for a new car. you won't regret it! forget the five stars, they deserve a gold one.

Very low pressure sales with amazing and friendly salesman. I have to say I was beyond pleased with the way they do business. They really know how to take care of you and make sure you find something that truly meets your needs. even if that means waiting a few days for them to source you a new car not in their inventory. I was very happy with not being pressured into a car I didn't like from their inventory

Who knew? As you drive down State in Midvale, it's littered with tons of small car dealerships. Several do not give you the best vibe when you look at them. This place is looks better than most, if not all the others. But that's not why I'm writing this "novel". I'm writing about the car buying experience I had there. The other day my niece had an urgent need for a car.

We went to Lhm used cars in Murray and quickly left. We drove south through the gauntlet of small dealerships and kept going. I wanted to stop here because I've had other dealings with the Peterson clan and felt like they were nice people. We found a car that fit the criteria and began the purchase process. But the treatment we got was awesome! Jeanne was so kind and patient with my niece who was very stressed making her first big purchase. Jeanne answered every single question we had without being condescending or impatient. I will come here again, without question.

This place is awesome possum place to purchase a used vehicle. They truly give you a great experience when there. Honest, helpful, caring bunch. The whole team what ever their role is friendly and inviting. If you're in the market for a reliable great priced vehicle check this wonderful place out. Highly recommend.

Such an amazing family owned and operated company! I purchased a used Lexus at the end of December that needed a new timing belt. They were more than willing to replace the timing belt and water pump without having to ask! If you're looking for a car and want to work with honest and hardworking people, this is the place! I will never shop anywhere else when it comes to cars!

Peterson auto is awesome! They're not pushy trying to steer you into a specific (more expensive) car. Not pushy at all we, walked onto the lot and they asked what our price range was, showed us what they have and told us to let them know what we'd want to test drive. Once I made my decision they handled the paperwork and everything topped off the gas tank and had me ready to go very quickly.

Good Old-Fashioned Customer Service. I had a fantastic experience purchasing a vehicle here. Very Fair, a great family run business. Thanks again. I recommend these folks to anyone in the market for a vehicle!

Stopped to look at 2008 Audi S5, advertised at $40k. Car has been in a front end accident, poorly fixed, ac doesn't work, possibly more issues. Advertised as clean, no prior accidents. Sales person kept stating that car has never been in an accident. I would make sure you check out the car off-site before you buy, if you don't have personal expertise with cars.

This place is honest and decent! They do their best to get you the best deal possible. The owner herself still runs it and she is very nice and has a no bull attitude. My family has bought several cars from her over the years. I only gave 4 stars because she doesn't have a huge selection in comparison to other bigger dealers, but if she doesn't have what you want she will look for it and get it!
