It is a very comforting feeling to know and trust your mechanic. I have been going to Rick for over 2 years now for routine service and maintenance on 2 separate cars (5 total if you include my whole family). The first was a 2005 Mazda 3, and the second a 1998 Toyota 4Runner. I have had them do everything from oil changes, to shock changes and upgrades, replacing a/c compressors, fuel injector/ brake fluid flushes etc. I recently blew a spark-plug, which caused my engine to make a terrible back-firing noise. I had it towed to Rick's to have him asses the damage, and to my surprise he and Jack had found a way to fix it for under $300. That might not sound like a great deal, but any other shop would have most likely had to take the whole block apart which would have cost $1100 in labor easy (plus the price of parts). Point is these guys consistently save me money and are a wealth of knowledge and experience when it comes to maintaining the integrity and safety of your vehicle. They are also great at discovering and fixing minor problems before they become major issues. I highly recommend them.
