Despite already working on a full garage they were able to diagnose and give me an estimate quickly. They ordered a radiator that day and it was in there within the hour. As soon as I give the green light they immediately go to work. I got same day service at an amazing price and quality honest work. I will 1000% be coming back to River with my cars, and I absolutely recommend them to anyone in the area as someone's who's dealt with a lot of different shops these guys set themselves apart for real.

I have nothing good to say about this automotive repair shop. I drove to it, Friday afternoon, a…read moreweek ago, to inquire about doing a 100,000 mile maintenance on my GMC 2016 pick up--showing Joe a list with items recommended. Joe, the owner, told me that they could, but if I could call on Monday morning to make an apt, which I did. We agreed on Thursday as the day to work on it. I took it over at 6:45 am and left him the keys. At 4:15 pm, I called to see what time I should pick it up. Joe had already left. The man I was speaking too did not initially know what I was talking about and then told me that no one had worked on my pickup. I called at 6:15 am the next morning, last Friday to request to get my keys as I already had plans to go out of town. Picking up the keys, Joe then told me that they did not do the type of maintenance listed on the sheet. What poor customer service.

Short version:…read more Scotty's Auto Repair is a inexpensive auto repair that's convenient, a good price, and best of all, run by someone who really knows what he's doing. Scotty is very responsive to calls and texts, and responded within a few minutes every time. The shop is in a good location with plenty of parking too, literally right off the main freeway. He even checked and topped off my tires to get me ready for the trip back to San Diego. This kind of mechanic is sadly, a dying breed. Long version: I was driving from San Diego to San Francisco, when my worst nightmare happened. My car broke down about 70mi from Bakersfield, in what was essentially the middle of nowhere. My oil pan had 1 inch hole, cut by a piece of debris in the road. After calling AAA roadside premier, which put me in a rental and asked me where to tow my car, I asked them to tow it into town, Bakersfield, while I drove off to San Fran. I called a couple places, and most were either closed on Saturday or didn't have the time, or were way too expensive. I called Scotty's auto repair on Friday afternoon, and he was very helpful. When I mentioned I broke down while traveling and got stranded, he said he was able to squeeze me in on Saturday morning. This may not be that fast for everyone, as they seem to have lots of regular/long term clients, looking at other reviews. We discussed price and parts, and that was that. The next morning, I arrived in Bakersfield at 4am, hung out in the rental until thing opened, grabbed the parts, and headed to the shop. He was able to do the repair for a great price, and he charged a great price for the parts he did provide (Sealent, oil, many other shops overcharge). Within 3 hours of dropping it off, it was done, ran, tested, checked, and ready to go! Will I ever go back? Well, I don't live in Bakersfield, so HOPEFULLY not haha, but let's just Say I was lucky I broke down close to here. Oh, and if you have a AAA card, it's AAA certified shop, so if you tell him you have a AAA card, they might give a discount. Not sure about how AAA works though.

After concluding that we had to get the car fixed, we decided to go with the dealership.
