I had to get my rear brake pads and rotors and tires replaced. I also needed to get my catalytic converter replaced. They were fast and very professional. Michael was a lot of help answering my questions and really appreciate him taking the time to explain the works done and needed to be done on my car. Thank you!
We have been with the Reliable Auto team for over 7 years. They are friendly , professional and do great work. I recommended them to all my friends.
We have been using Reliable since 2016, the most recent time just being last week. I have 100% trust in them and their work. If anyone ever asks where to bring their vehicles for work I always suggest Reliable. I just cant say enough good things about Michael and the quality of work, and customer service. I wish…
I have taken my cars to Reliable for service and maintenance for 10 years. They are dependable, efficient and their communication is excellent.I know I can trust them.
My Toyota RAV4 has been in Reliable Auto Repair’s hands since 2015. I have never had a problem with getting appointments, having the car serviced and repaired. They simply are the best!
Michael and his team are life-savers. They are the absolute best. They have been my designated auto care specialist for over a decade now across two long-running cars. They are professional, extremely skilled, honest, reliable, and very reasonably priced. They communicate well and are very responsive whenever I…
I’ve been taking my vehicles to Reliable Auto Repair for several years. I originally found them through searching Yelp & Google, looking at their highest ratings, and I am so glad I did. In an industry where it’s hard to know who to trust, this team stands out. They are fair, honest, and hardworking. Whenever I…
I've used Reliable for years. Michael and his team have serviced, maintained, and repaired my family's fleet of vehicles that have included two Jeeps, two Lexus hybrid SUVs, and yesterday, my new Bentley Bentayga. Their work has always been superlative, and I've referred colleagues and friends to them. I learned…
Michael and his team are very knowledgeable, skilled, honest and friendly. There is no pressure when taking your vehicle there. They will diagnose your vehicle, possibly make recommendation, and you make the choice of whether or not to do the job. It can be difficult to find a truly honest repair shop that is…
I was IN and OUT in about 40 minutes...and my flat tire was REPAIRED!! I expected a really long wait but was able to make it to work practically on time!! This shop is one of the most professional and organized ones I know of. I trust Michael and ALL of his mechanics...I WILL BE BACK!!
I am so thankful that you were able to replace all 4 tires
Mike and his crew did great job on my vehicle. This shop was recommended by Costco and a good friend of mine. Mike explained which things needed to be addressed immediately and which ones can be addressed later. The shop is clean and organized. So far, my steering feels sturdier with the repairs that were completed. I’ll be back.
I've been taking my car to Reliable Auto Service for about 7 years now for various services (maintenance, tire replacement, vehicle safety inspection). I drive a old 2005 Subaru Outback and I've always had a positive experience with them. True to it's name, you can confidently rely on them to do a great job.
It was a great experience at Reliable Auto Repair. Michael was very helpful and efficient. I checked in, he said the car will be done in an hour and boom...everything fell into place. Would certainly recommend to anyone. I'd certainly would go back! Thank you.
I’ve brought my car in for the 3rd time. I appreciate the way Reliable checks up every few months or so. I had several repairs and maintenance done and the process was very convenient in the way I can see what’s most urgent and what’s next. It was easy to select what I wanted at the time. I dropped off my car in the…

Michael and his team did a stellar job on my car. Appreciate that he takes the time to thoroughly explain the nature of the needed repairs and answer any and all questions with zero pressure. Price was very fair. I will absolutely be back.
Michael at RAR is simply the best. There’s no other auto shop that can compare with their honesty, communication, and knowledge!!!
