A Local Auto Repair Shop with Deep Roots in Durango, CO

Durango Automotive Repair has served the Durango area since 1974, but our business began in 1952. We started as a brake repair shop and evolved into an “everything” auto repair shop over the years. Now we’re a third generation family-owned and operated business, with two generations—Tony Cleveland Sr. and Tony Cleveland Jr. (“TJ”)—working in the shop every day. The father-son team carries forward a 40+ year tradition of personal service and high quality auto repair.

“Our business has been family-owned for three generations, and we continue to grow while standing by our founding values.”

– TJ Cleveland, Third Generation Owner

Meet the Owner

TJ Cleaveland

I am the 3rd generation owner of Durango Automotive Repair. I started sweeping the floors when I was very little and grew to love working on cars and trucks. When I was 16 I started helping my Dad here at the shop during the summer and after school. Growing up working alongside my Grandfather and Father I learned their strong family values and how to carry that over to our customers.

After being a technician for over 10 years and earning my master ASE certification I moved to Service adviser, then manger in 2012. I married my Beautiful in 2010 and we had our precious daughter on 4/15/16 we enjoy hunting together and going to the lake and in the mountains as a family. I as an owner of a local 3rd generation automotive shop I strive to take care of our customers and my community as if they were my own family.
