Real reviews from real customers across Google and Facebook.
“Excellent service! Rico came by on short notice to replace my alternator and was quick and efficient! Very professional and knowledgeable. Price was honest and affordable. Would highly recommend his services to anyone!”
“Texted Rico at about 10pm and he responded in less than a minute. Came out the next morning in the freezing cold and completed the job for me. Very knowledgeable, honest, and affordable. Would recommend!”
“I don't know much about cars, so I'm always worried about being taken advantage of at shops. R's took the time to show me exactly what was wrong with my brakes, sent me pictures, and explained everything before doing anything. The honesty blew me away.”
“Came out to replace my brakes and fix my electronic parking brake module. Fast, professional, and saved me a trip (and a ton of money) from going to the dealership! He even programmed the new part right on the spot.”
“Contacted another mechanic to replace my starter and after 2 and a half hours they were unsuccessful. Called R's and he arrived in less than 30 minutes. The job was done in less than an hour AND I saved money. Reliable and affordable!”
“Excellent service from start to finish. He diagnosed the bad wheel bearing quickly and got it replaced the same day. Knowledgeable, honest, and saved me the hassle of towing my vehicle to a shop.”
