What your car is trying to tell you.
You know something’s off before you know what it is. Here’s the plain-English version of the six things drivers bring us most — no scare tactics, no diagnosis invented over the phone.
Not sure which? Call (720) 300-4241- GRINDING · SQUEAL
A grind or squeal when you brake
Usually worn pads or rotors. Brakes are the one system you never wait on — worth a look soon.
- CHECK ENGINE
The check-engine light is on
Could be minor, could matter. A scan tells us which before you spend a dime on parts.
- VIBRATION
Shaking or a shimmy at speed
Often tires, brakes, or suspension. We find the actual one instead of guessing at all three.
- ODOR
A burning or sweet smell
Different smells point to different systems — oil, coolant, brakes. We track down the source.
- NO-START
It's slow to start, or won't
Frequently the battery, alternator, or starter. A quick test says which — so you replace only what failed.
- FLUID LEAK
A puddle under where you park
The color and spot tell a story — oil, coolant, or transmission. Bring it in and we read it.
No invented problems. No surprise bills. Just the work your car actually needs.
The Fitsum way — four steps, no surprises.
- 01
Tell us what’s going on
The noise, the light, the trouble another shop couldn’t crack. Call or drop by — you talk to a real mechanic, not a service writer.
- 02
We find the real cause
A proper diagnosis, not a guess. We track down the actual source instead of throwing parts at it and hoping.
- 03
You get the plan and price
In plain English, up front. Nothing starts until you say go — we never do work you didn’t approve.
- 04
We fix it, and stand behind it
We do the work right and tell you what we did. You drive off knowing exactly what you paid for and why.

Fitsum the owner and the chief mechanic of this business is very knowledgeable, on time and fair and clear pricing, no hidden fees at all. I really trust him and recommend him to anyone who is really looking for an honest and dependable mechanic.

I had a tough repair job done at Fitsum auto shop. He went beyond to make sure everything was right. He was prompt, professional and the price was fair. I highly recommend Fitsum's auto shop.

Fitsum is amazing. He is honest, efficient, and an all around great guy. My husband has a lemon of a car that we couldn't replace immediately but would come up with major issues every 3 months. Every time we took the car to him he would fix it for us and charge us a very reasonable amount. So if you need a good mechanic who is honest and can do his job right he is the guy for you.

I am extremely satisfied by outstanding service Fitsum performed on my SUV. I tried with some of the dealerships' services and literally none of them even remotely compare to the excellence service performance. The only way you could go wrong is by NOT using this place. Highly recommended for any maintenance issues.

Fitsum auto repair has worked on 2 of my vehicles and I couldn't be happier with the results. Their prices are fair and just, and the work they do is solid. No regrets, finally we have found an honest repair shop. 5 stars, better yet, 10 stars!!
