Eric and his team go above and beyond - he is not just a mechanic, he's an educator and a mentor…read more Everything I've asked them to check out and fix has been done with integrity, professionalism, kindness, and amazing service. He worked with me to figure out what was most pressing in terms of keeping my old car safe enough to drive, and allowing me to schedule out repairs when it was within my budget to do so. Affordable and honest. In a mechanic, this is gold.

I was happily satisfied having taken two of my vehicles to Rick's Automotive for minor repairs…read more However I felt "ripped off" on my third experience. Keith gave me a verbal quote of up to $700 to replace the rear brake pads & rotors... a bit high I thought. However the final invoice was $400 more! And... the same exact parts were $250 more than at AutoZone or at O'Reilly Auto Parts. I learned an expensive lesson... always get a written estimate! Warranty: Regarding the markup of parts for a that 2 year/24,0000 mile warranty... most manufactures of rotors already offer a lifetime warranty for defects. Written Estimate: Essential to avoid miscommunication. Unless your installing windshield wipers... every single customer that is quoted hundreds of dollars for services should automatically be provided with a written estimate period! Cutting Corners: A reasonable assumption would be one in which auto mechanical repair jobs are inherently associated with areas of safety concerns. What jobs wouldn't be & how does that justify price gouging? Discount: If you suffered a foodborne illness after dining in a restaurant would you accept a discount or complementary meal for your inconvenience?

I have had good work done at Ricks a few years ago and I trusted them. My CEL VSC & TRAC OFF…read morelights would not turn off. A free diagnosis from Autozone indicated a faulty O2 sensor. I brought that paperwork to Ricks and asked them to fix my car and anything else needed. Keith gave me a verbal quote of $695. Again, I trusted them from past service. Agreed to the verbal quote. The O2 sensor was replaced- CEL off. Unfortunately, VSC & TRAC OFF are still on. Rick's doesn't have the equipment to clear those codes/fix this problem on any LEXUS. They suggested I go to a dealer and try to get a free fix on an expired service bulletin/recall- no luck there. I'm happy the CEL is off. I'm disappointed that I didn't get a full fix especially when I was told they are a full service shop that day by 2 different people. Sadly, I should have insisted on a printed quote and I will from now on.

I'll always support a business that's honest, and Ultimate Auto Care has truly earned my trust…read more Both of my experiences with them have been easy, straightforward, and positive. Visit #1) Skid plate disconnection: My skid plate came loose underneath my car, so I called around for estimates. One shop quoted me nearly double what Ultimate charged, and the team at Ultimate got the job done quickly. Visit #2) Transmission fluid flush and fill: In 2021, I had this same service done elsewhere and paid significantly more. When Ultimate quoted me their price, I honestly thought there had been a mistake. Ultimate's tech took the time to walk me through exactly what was included so I fully understood what I was paying for. Justin and his team were incredibly patient with all of my questions. As a woman, it can sometimes feel intimidating walking into an auto shop, but the team here has made it clear that their goal is to educate, not take advantage.

I came here trying to just get some basic maintenance on my car. A couple things led to me giving a…read moresub-par review. One was the service, another was behavior/tone/attitude of an older man I think was part of the business. Needless to say, I parked my car slightly wrong and got screamed at. When I got my car back from an oil change it had trash in it, and some seal must not have been tightened because oil was leaking, also my windshield fluid line got disconnected (?). Anyways, Steve's down the street took care of me and made reconnected/tightened things up. Overall, avoid MD.

It leaked even after the repair. Travis took the car back 3 times at no charge to fix the stubborn issue. We will continue to come here for all our auto repair needs. I find the prices are much better on most repairs than the dealership. Hopefully you will do tire repairs in the future! Thanks again. John

Our tow truck, Aloha towing, (great experience but they don't have a yelp) dropped off my vehicle there. The next morning Dylan called me and let me know they would not have time to do the diagnostic that day but would try. They weren't able to but did get it taken care of early the next day and called me around 9:00 am. Total engine replacement!!!! Say it ain't so! However, Dylan went on to tell me that he had several customers take their Hyundai back to the dealer where it was covered under an extended warranty and gave me the information I would need to take it up with them. What a roller coaster. Luckily, I was still covered under the warranty, and it is in the dealers' hands now. Pray for me! Hopefully I won't have further vehicle issues, but I know where I want to go if I do! Thank you GG!
