The waiting room at Pete's: a Pac-Man cabinet, an Asteroids cabinet and a blue stool with the Honda logo
Yes, that's the waiting room.

A Honda shop, not a shop that also sees Hondas.

Pete's is built around one family of cars. That is the whole pitch, and it is why the sign says "your dealership alternative."

  • Honda- and Acura-only techniciansHondas and Acuras are the daily work here, not the exception.
  • Honda Service ExpressThe shop subscribes for technical service bulletins, recalls and diagnostic information.
  • Other Japanese makes, tooThe owner says the technicians are experienced on all Japanese makes. Ask when you call.
  • Warranty on all workAs the owner states it. Ask the shop for the terms on your job.

Why the sign says Pete's.

Peter Nguyen founded the shop and gave it his name. Ken Peterson bought it in 2009 and kept both the name and the focus: Hondas and Acuras, honest estimates, and no overselling.
