Mesa Tire

Very good service. My son blew a tire on his car while working at near by Philmont Scout Ranch. Mesa Tire worked with him & got him in & out quickly with minimum time off from his full schedule. The were very helpful with us over the phone (we are back east) & when he dealt with them out in NM. We appreciate the professionalism & courtesy of the staff. I would recommend them & use them again any time!

I am here in Raton for the summer. I had a very slow leak in my back tire and I knew I needed to get it fixed.
I have discount tire, but unfortunately I’m about 200 miles from a locations, so I headed to Mesa.
First, I could not find the dang place.
The guy stayed on the phone with me until I made it. I arrived at 8am right as they were opening. I pulled right in and one of the mechanics took my tire off and found the small nail immediately.
The guys were very nice. It was very quick, but very thorough work.
18 minutes and $ 12 later, I was on the road.
These guys are awesome!

Virtual ditto to previous review. Sunday, not holiday. Spent night at Sugarite State Park outside Raton. Discovered «low tire» warning (will resist unprintable comment about so-​called run flat tires) next A.M., with obvious nail in tire. Everything in Raton that might fix was closed. Only one «tire place» (Walmart) open in Trinidad («Oh, we don’t work on those»). Finally looked at Unilocal — then per previous review talked to folks at Visitors Center. In contrast to previous review, they had no useful info. So, also per previous Unilocal review, called Mesa Tire. Phone answered, fellow (I think «Beaver» again) very responsive/​helpful, was successful in getting one of his employees to come to the shop, who cordially patched my flat and shared of his copious knowledge re tires! From first call to Mesa to on-​the-​road probably 1.5 hours. Cost: $ 60 for off-​hours service, and $ 20 for patch. Entirely reasonable in my view.

I have high standards for mechanics and auto repair in general. I also have some odd obsessions with them, because I have learned that if disaster strikes, it will strike on a holiday weekend, when I am driving, in the middle of nowhere.
While driving back to Denver, the lovely tire pressure light clicked on (this light is truly my arch enemy). After checking the tire pressure in both tires, and discovering they were very low, I panicked. I filled them up with air, and still panicking, went to the vistor’s center in Raton. The front desk people were great, not just because they gave me a list of tire repair, but personally called «Beaver» at Mesa Tire.
Yes, I probably could have lasted another 100 miles. Maybe, I don’t know. Because if there is one person to blow out a tire while driving… it is me. And since both of them were leaking (probably slowly) I still only have one spare.
I drove out to Mesa tires and was met there quickly by Beaver, who removed both nails in each back tires and also removed the ugly hubcaps at my request. On a holiday. In under an hour. More like 35 minutes. It was fast. And done very well. Yes, it cost me $ 100, but the guy did have to drive out on his holiday. It was worth every penny for peace of mind. The repairman was also very nice, and was clearly doing a good job and not out to make an extra buck (which he could have in my distress).
If you are in Raton, need some tires or need to fix a flat, I would suggest here.
