You see the quote before we turn a wrench. No mystery fees, no "while we were in there…"

Plain‑English Explanations

You'll know what's wrong, what it'll take to fix, and what can safely wait.

Our Story

Two Cousins.
One Garage.
Zero Runaround.

Cousin's Wrenches opened its bay doors in 2024 in the Lakeside Park auto-row off Pantano — a stretch of East Tucson where people have been getting cars fixed for a long time. We're the new shop on the block, but the standard isn't new: do the job right, charge what's fair, and explain it like you'd explain it to family.

We focus on diagnostics, daily-driver maintenance, brakes, A/C, suspension, and engine work. If we're not the right shop for what you're after, we'll tell you that too.

Common Questions

Good to Know Before You Drop In

Do I need an appointment?+

We strongly prefer appointments so we can give you our full attention. For an emergency — a brake noise that just appeared or an A/C that just died in July — call us and we'll do our best to squeeze you in.

What kinds of vehicles do you work on?+

Most domestic and import cars, trucks, and SUVs — gas and diesel. We focus on practical daily-driver service and repair. For hybrids and EVs, we'll happily refer you to our neighbor Tucson Hybrids if it's outside our scope.

Will I get a quote before any work is done?+

Always. After we diagnose, we send you a written estimate via our Shopmonkey portal — you review, approve, and we get to work. No surprise charges.

Do you offer a warranty?+

Yes — 12 months / 12,000 miles on parts and labor for most repairs. If something we touched fails inside that window, we make it right.

How do I pay?+

All major credit cards, debit, and cash. We'll text you a secure link to pay through Shopmonkey if you'd rather not stop by — handy if a family member is picking up the vehicle.

Are you really BBB Accredited?+

Yep. Look us up: Cousin's Wrenches on the Better Business Bureau of Southern Arizona — A rating, accredited since July 2025.
