The Shop Behind the Yellow Sign
Craig's Pit Stop Automotive is a small independent shop at 19 W 1500 N, Vernal, UT 84078. The person who answers the phone is the person who works on your truck, and you get the job explained straight before and after. Service like that leaves a trail: customers have been thanking this crew by name in reviews since 2018.
The Shop
Craig's Pit Stop Automotive works on cars, trucks, and SUVs: domestic, import, gas, and light diesel. Directory listings checked today consistently list diesel repair, towing, transmission work, and suspension repair alongside the everyday oil changes and small-engine jobs.
A 2024 Google review from Chris put it plainly: "They were honest, hardworking, and know what they are doing... They charge fair prices and even charged less than expected for transmission work."
Why Customers Come Back
They Name Names
Reviewers across two platforms consistently praise Craig, Codie, Travis, and Treven by name, not just "the shop."
Stranded-Traveler Stories
Kirk McCrery's 19-year-old conversion van broke down mid-road-trip in 2019: "they honorably stood by their estimate despite complications." Meliss Zack Gomez had a similar experience passing through in 2020.
All Makes, Plus Diesel
Cars, trucks, SUVs, and light truck diesel, the vehicles that actually run in the Uintah Basin.
Estimates That Hold
Multiple reviewers, from 2019 through 2024, describe estimates that held up, or came in under, once the work was done.
