Recommended my friend here after I got a tune up. They were honest and didn't over charge. These guys are thee best.

Been taken my trucks and cars here for years good mechanics responsible the owner Ralphie is one of the best He straight up and honest

Taking my car here was one of the biggest mistakes ever. Car had been dealing with transmission problems since i purchased it and intially felt confident in ralph when i dropped it off. I was very wrong. He has no idea what he is doing and will take your time with your car. Take your car here if u want to get robbed of your time and money. Complete joke. Car is still having problems after 10+ visits here in less than a year. If you cant fix something ralph just let the people know. Riversides finest scammer. 0 stars read more

We new we had to have our breaks changed. We showed up on Saturday around opening and they were will to take the car. Told us they would call in an hour with diagnostic results and they did! They then were able to do the work the same day and we had our car back before noon! I have never been able to drop my car off with our an appointment and then get it back fixed the same day anywhere else and they had a very competitive price! It was a great experience and I will recommend them to everybody I know. read more

If i could give them zero stars i would. Had a blown gasket in January took to them to be fixed ended up overcharging me for doing half ass work. And have had more problems with the car than i began with when i took it to them. Would not recommend to anybody worst mechanic I've been to read more

We luv Ralph and his mechanics! They do an excellent job troubleshooting vehicles...highly recommended! The shop and waiting area is clean! We've been taking our cars for the last three years...thanks Pierce! read more

If I could leave zero stars I would. I paid Pierce auto to provide me with auto service and ended up making it worse. I took my car back to have it repaired again, under the "warranty", but to no avail. I called again within a week and they did not have time to look at my car, but to bring it by in a few days. I ended up taking it somewhere else and had to pay triple, twice to fix the original problem, and extra to fix the screw up the Mechanic did at Pierce auto. If you take your car to Pierce, you will be sorry. Don't let the warranty fool you like it did to me. :( read more

These guys know what their doing. Thank you for helping me out with my Bronco. Fast, professional, knowledgeable,honest crew. read more

Pierce Automotive - 1979 Bronco 460 motor swap. - Auto Repair Near Me - Riverside, California

My car was fixed real fast! Ralph is the guy you want when fixing your car. Awesome service and friendly people.

My experience here at pierce auto motive was excellent to say the least. Ralph the owner of the shop was super professional & had great customer service. I went in for regular maintenance on my car (oil change) etc etc. He got the job done in a timely matter and had me out of the shop in no time. Another thing I also appreciated was the reasonable pricing! His staff is also very professional and also have great customer service. I recommend him to everyone! read more

I had a small run-in and popped out my fender liner, and was referred here. The person who talked with me and worked on my car, Josh, was extremely nice and honest. It was such a minor fix-it job that he didn't charge me, even though he used his own clips, and he allowed me the time to make sure the fender liner was secure. I absolutely recommend this place if you need any body work done! read more

Stopped in here last week for a oil change, air filter and smog check. I chose this shop as it's close to home and I could get everything done in one stop. I told the mechanic what I needed and that I would wait as they only had a few cars they were working on. They took my keys, drove my car in the shop and I went inside to wait. I should've left then...BAR where are you? I thought it was a state law that the shop gives you paperwork to sign with an estimate, this shop doesn't bother. Soooo, I watched my car sit on the rack for over an hour. PLEASE...how long does it take to unscrew a drain plug, an oil filter, and fill it with oil? Well the air filter box did have 6 clips to pop, I guess that could take a minute. Luckily, I had phone calls to make as I watched my car sit. Finally, after the smog check I was able to leave a whole 2 HOURS LATER. I drove the few miles home and the first thing my son says is "mom you have a flat tire." Gee thanks guys, I went to the gas station and 15 pounds of air in my front tire, air must be extra at this shop. Long story I know but don't bother going to this place. The cheap oil change places in town do a better and much faster job. Skip the smog check too since its affiliated with the shop. read more

Needed a new engine for my daughter fiat. Ralph worked quickly and was very helpful. Got the job done right away. Thank you for great service! read more

The 1st smog place I went to ( smog busters on magnolia ave in riverside) was a dive. I went there w/ coupon in hand thinking I was getting a good deal on a smog check. If u don't mind grumpy employees and long wait times then that place is for u. So I leave the place and was driving around and found the fellas at pierce auto. It's a family run joint and the guys are friendly. The smog check cost me a little more ($45) than what I was going to pay but I was in and out of the place in 15 minutes. read more

I was referred here by a coworker, it's down the street from my office and the mall so it's logistically sound in that regard. The guys are very friendly and inviting and get you in and out of there in 15 minutes TOPS. Record speed. The prices are pretty good, for my smog check it was $50! Great shop read more

This doesn't allow me to use -10 as a review which is what they really deserve. I have nothing but negative ill feeling at this business. I took my 63 Impala in because the owner told me he could rebuild my 327 engine for $3500. He was also going to fix an exhaust leak. I brought it home and it was leaking oil and overheating. Took it back 6 times and nothing changed. The first time I brought it home and told them it was leaking oil and overheating they sent out a tow truck and wanted me to pay $150 for it. I refused. It's been 16 months now and I've had to pay another $3500 to fix the mess this business made of my car. They had taped wires together and spray painted them. Got over spray on my white car. It had a flat tire when I picked it up. Exhaust is still leaking and so is rear end seal. There's so much more damage that was done.I would NEVER recommend this corrupt company to anyone. read more

Quick but be prepared to pay $60 for a smog test.... I could get 3 lap dances for that much...damn!

I came in for an oil change, not knowing they closed 40 minutes prior. The guy was really nice, and changed my oil anyway. 10 minutes later, done. read more

Ive been coming here for years! Family owned and operated! Most Importantly Very friendly staff!! Tip: If you come in early.. your out early! read more

If I could give -5 to this place, I would. I took my truck here a while ago and they kept it there for a month. I called and called and they would allways say that they were working on it. Finaly, they called me to tell me that they couldnt fix it, after all that time. Waste of my time!! On top of that when I went to pick up my truck, it had a big dent on it that was not there before. When I told them about it they denied that it happened there. I couldnt do anything about it, since I couldnt proive it. My advice is to take a picture of your vihicles before you go to this place. I hope more people speak up if they had a bad experience at this place. Good luck. read more
