Richard’s Auto Clinic

Had a fantastic experience with this place. Had to get my brake and power steering fluids flushed and get my front headlights replaced before going on a road trip. They got me in and took me to work after dropping off the car. They also called me during the repair to let me know that my serpentine belt needed replacing and when all was said and done actually SHOWED me the old belt. As someone who isn’t as car savvy as others, this meant a lot to me. Really showed that they care about the customer and not to mention very reasonable prices. The whole crew was very accommodating and friendly and I will be using them again in the future.

These guys did a great job from start to finish. From the time I called and spoke to Ron to make an appointment to the time they handed me my keys I was impressed. Ron was fantastic and kept me informed as to what I could expect every step of the way. Prices were reasonable. The work was high quality and the customer service was outstanding. I will continue to take my vehicles to Richard’s Auto Clinic.

Wow. What nice people.
I just moved here from Virginia and my car failed the emission test (womp). I quickly scanned Unilocal for some good places and I’m glad I settled on this one. Consistently superior reviews and for a reason!
Tom was helpful and explained why my car failed, the approximate cost to fix it, and what I would need to do afterwards in order to go back through emissions.
I’ll definitely be back here to have the other car worked on!

Tom, Ron and the rest of a great team, went there after my car died on me, very professional, high detailed analysis and very helpful advices, told me my car would would complete in a time, however they delivered half hour earlier, very friendly, professional and cheap :)
One visit and you’ll take your car every time, try them and you’ll see :)

stopped in for a leaking tire. handled me right away. found the nail, patched it up and was outta there in no time. honest, fast, friendly and cheap. thanks again guys!

Richards Auto Clinic was great! I dropped my Jeep off that had been having issues for several months. Previously another mechanic had said that he couldn’t figure out why my check engine light was on and that it was something I would just have to live with. My car was at Richards for only 2 days before he called with great news. He fixed all the issues that I was having in a timely manner and at a reasonable price. Even better– after asking if he had a military discount he gave me 10% off! Definitely head to this place if you are in the area.

Richard and crew are amazing!
I do not know a thing about cars and they walked me through my service and outlined necessary v unnecessary services and repairs and did all of the work for what I later found out to be a very competitive and reasonable price. These gentlemen were friendly and even called me a week after my service thanking me for my business.
I absolutely trust these guys and without a doubt will be back anytime my car needs some work. I strongly recommend them to anyone who is unsure about where to go for a mechanic or needs a new guy, these guys are the best!

I LOVE Richards Auto Clinic! I have been taking my vehicles there for the past 12 years, actually just picked my «truck» up today. I drive my cars into the ground. Literally, I do not have a the cash to just weed through new cars, or replace old ones… I put huge miles on my vehicles…
It started with a ¹⁹⁸⁰⁄₁ Chrysler LeBaron, Petri, the car that couldn’t fly… The guys at the shop managed to help keep that thing running for as long as it ran. From oil changes, belts, tune ups, anything and everything Petri needed, he got (Thanks Dad ;)). I would go hang out because I had to have my car the minute it was ready. Which meant for certain repairs, it was ready the same day. Now, mind you, that was a loooooong time ago and I wouldn’t recommend just hanging out, especially not in the summer, just wait for them to call and they will… Reuniting with your car will feel so good. HA! It’s the truth, because every time I have gotten my car back, it’s been great, seriously.
Then it was, the ’89 golf… I hated that thing, and it hated me. Massive spillage of some sort, pouring everywhere out of my engine, late one night in west phoenix. Well, Ron and the guys magically fixed that, stupid thing ran for a long while after that too I’m sure, until I decided I’d had enough and upgraded to a 1993 LeBaron, Sally. Man that thing was fast. Anyway, I know for a fact they serviced that vehicle for me as well.
Now, I’m on to a faceless X-​terra without a name… I say faceless because it’s missing a front end. I want to try to repair that with my son, so I haven’t inquired about it at Richards… I just picked it up for a new catalytic convertor, and shocks both of which were desperately needed. Emissions coming around and whatnot, even better, Ron had mentioned it to me some time last year that I would be needing one, I think when I went in for a stud/​screw/​whatever its called, that Discount Tire couldn’t remove when I went in for a tire repair.
However, I will say this, over the past decade and four cars that I have owned, I don’t trust anyone else to touch my ride. I must admit that I haven’t been anywhere else to see if there is a ‘bargain’, but, I know the dealership charged more for oil changes than at the shop. My knowledge of reliable, honest mechanics is that its a special trade that one must be skilled to do appropriately and honestly. Well, that’s these guys, and they do a kick butt job at it! I have always heard people talking about how difficult it is to find a good mechanic, well, I must have gotten lucky to begin with because I’ve never had a complaint.
Tell your friends, take your car in for your next oil change just to check them out, I’d call ahead of time though, just as a heads up, or you can probably just stop by and say hi to them they’re super friendly.
As for the guard dog… Well, you’ll have to check that out for yourself.
I’m a for life customer, and would proudly claim them as my mechanic for any car repair needs, any day!

These guys are great! Very honest and reasonable with their prices. It’s not easy to find an auto mechanic that you can trust.

the F150 needed brakes.
we got them done in one day – ready on time, not over-​charged, the day before a holiday weekend, friendly and HONEST.
plus, they’ve got a really cool shop dog.
