Summit sits between us and Puyallup, so a lot of these customers drop off on the way to work in the morning and collect on the way home.
Auto Star — Serving Summit, WA
Summit is about 9 miles from our shop, close to 16 minutes if traffic is normal. The usual route is north on Meridian E, then west at 112th. We work on cars from Summit, Summit View, Waller, and Firgrove, including folks near Summit Elementary and the Sunrise Terrace area.
We're in Graham, not Summit itself, so this isn't a claim to be around the corner. It's a straight shot up Meridian, though, and we've noticed Summit sits in a useful spot between us and Puyallup. A lot of Summit customers drop the car off in the morning on their way to work in Puyallup and pick it up on the way home. If that works for your schedule, say so when you call or drop by — we can usually work out a plan for the day that doesn't mean you're standing around waiting on a brake job or an oil change.
We're open Monday through Friday, 9 to 5. If your week is already full, call ahead and we'll help you work out a time to get the car in.
What we handle
Routine maintenance and oil changes, brake repair, engine and transmission work, electrical diagnostics, heating and A/C, exhaust and emissions, battery issues, and check engine lights. Tony Sindhu handles the driveability and diagnostic side — engine and transmission problems that take some digging to track down. He also handles brakes, oil changes, and lighter body work. Jabarjeet Singh, one of the owners, works on A/C and electrical himself, so on those jobs you're not just talking to someone who relays information from the back.
We're a small shop — bought and run by the current owners since November 2022 — so the people who work on your car and the people you talk to about it are usually the same people, most days. If you'd rather explain the problem in Punjabi, that's an option here too.
Call ahead at (253) 375-7057 if you're planning the Summit-to-Puyallup drop-off, so we know to expect you.
