Richin’s were quick and efficient in getting my brakes and rotors done. Very reasonably priced compared to other places. Will continue to have work done there.
I was able to get in quick. They fixed my sqeaky brakes that have been driving me crazy! Also provided me with an estimate for something that will eventually need to be fixed, gives me time to plan ahead!
It was easy to make an appointment, staff in front welcomed me, service writers were knowledgeable, and their price was well within my budget. They'll be my new service center for my vehicle!!
Fast, courteous and good. Walking distance from the trax station.
Just got my brakes done on my F150. They feel flawless now. Got in next day and done by end of day with new brakes, rotors, and flush (which I all needed). Solid price for good work.
I prefer Richins to any other car repair establishment, including the car dealer. They are friendly, reasonably priced, experienced and above all, honest. I also appreciate that their front office is clean!
Friendly, knowledgeable and honest.
Integrity still exists! After taking my son’s car for what I thought would be a brake replacement, I was very happy to hear it was dust from not driving the car regularly. Other repair shops may have done the work and I would be none the wiser. Very thankful for the honesty of Richins.
These guys always knock it out of the park. Outstanding in their communication and promptness. They don’t take you for a ride and request unnecessary repairs. They do what needs to be done and their recommendations are spot on. I’ll keep coming back.
My family and I have been taking our vehicles to Richins for years and not once have we regretted it. They’ve always treated us fairly and tried to do the best they can to work with what’s available. Kent, Kelly, and Hunter are friendly, helpful and have a great sense of humor. Those guys have always given us a…
My husband and I have been bringing our cars to Richins for years. They have always gone above and beyond with incredibly competitive pricing. They’ve helped us more times than I can count and we’re so grateful for them!
Clear communication, no games, high competence, great service.
Hunter is extremely kind and respectful, and goes into a perfect amount of technical detail based on what you ask. They also go out of their way to save you money. Best mechanic/shop I've ever been to.
We have been going to Richins Car Service for years with multiple cars and have always had a great experience. They give friendly, prompt service and take the time to explain repairs and options. So awesome to have a trusted car mechanic!
I am very happy overall about Richins Auto fixing our car. Very honest and fixed it quick! Their price is very reasonable. Definitely, will recommend it to relatives and friends! One very satisfied customer here. ❤️
AC recharge went great, fast, affordable!
The guys at Richins replaced the timing belt, serpentine belt, and water pump on my Acura. They charged about a third of what the dealers were asking. Job went well they did it for a bit less than the estimate. I love them!!
Great service an I trust the staff
This was my second experience with Richins Car Service and they did not disappoint. I had some strange vibration noises coming from my 4Runner and my brakes were grinding pretty bad. The shop called me several times to give me updates, and took extra care to ensure both issues were resolved. The price was fair,…
Amazing service
Great team at Richins, and they really take great care of their customers!
Phenomenal customer service!!! They explained my brake issue thoroughly and when I had more questions, they had a physical diagram in the shop to show me the mechanism and how it worked. Thank you Richins team! You guys are incredible to work with!
Honest and dependable.
They are very easy to work with, I will be taking my cars there from now on
Work was done well and the same day. They advised i didnt need brake pads which saved me some money. Always happy with their service
Moved about a year ago and this was the first mechanic I have visited in Utah. Went there because I thought my rear breaks were gone. Explain the situation, they were very nice, explained what the next steps were. They called me about an hour later explaining that the issue was not the rear, but the front breaks.…
Richins has the REAL experts with REAL experience. I've been other places that try to upsell or just do only what is asked. The Richins crew tell it like it is and simply give the straight truth. They just do the right things for the right reasons. HONESTY is what keeps me coming back for all my repairs on every…
A friend recommended us and we could not be more happy! Got our car fixed and gave reasonable estimates/ understandable explanations. Overall a great experience.
Upfront communications. Nice to work with a company that will tell you when a service is unnecessary.
They got everything taken care of in short order.
Amazing service and reasonable prices. I’ve been looking for a good mechanics shop and I have found it with Richin’s.
Aire compresor on my dodge ram, Nice work,
Fast diagnostic, well explained options, and a competitive price. Hunter is a great customer service rep., very thorough and knowledgeable. The owner, Steve, is the kind of guy you want to give your business to. He's very hands on, takes care of business, thoroughly, professionally, and fairly. I highly recommend Richins Car Service.
First time at Richins and it was a great experience. Excellent communication on repairs and pricing was fair and not overpriced. I will return in the future for any necessary repairs to my vehicle!
Richins is amazing. I’ve been taking my Subaru to them for 4 years now and the guys at Richins always do a great job. They are honest a fairly priced, they always explain clearly what’s going on and what my options are, and they respect whatever I decide to have done. They know their trade and I trust them to take care of my car!
Really enjoy doing business with these guys - very straightforward, fast work, good prices, and they do a great job.
It took me a while to find a good auto service company. When I came across Richins and saw his reviews on Google I thought I give them a try. It was one of the best decision I made. I like how honest and upfront they are with me and really appreciate the work they do on my vehicles. I would highly recommend them to anybody.
The kind of guys you search to work with. The Richins men don't waste time chatting and won't try to sell you anything you don't need. They are very direct and to the point. They have always treated me -(and those I've sent to them) with fairness and honesty. This business goes above and beyond. They helped me when…
Richins always does a great job for us. We trust them with all our card.
Once again…Richins is the BEST in the Auto Repair business! They are honest and do good work. I ONLY go to these guys for my automotive needs! Mahalo!

I’ve used Richens and have know Steve, Kelly and Kent over many years. They have treated me my family and my friends like gold. I highly recommend them!
Very friendly. Great communication, Knowledgeable. Fair pricing.
Been using Richins Car service for over 5 years now. Only place we take our family vehicles now. Great communication and trustworthy people. Always a comfortable experience. Curtis Wilson
The Richins team was very professional and friendly. They were able to squeeze my truck in and complete the work the same day. They only recommended and performed the work that was necessary and didn’t try to up sell me on extra work that wasn’t needed at this time. It’s hard to find a mechanic who you can trust. I’m happy I found Richins.
I recommend these guys to everyone. They have great customer service, do quality work and are great to work with. I'll be a customer here for life
Richins is awesome, I’ve been going there for awhile and several family members as well. They always fit me in and get my vehicles fixed quickly. They communicate with you every step of the way and are very reasonable with their cost estimates. I highly recommend them.
Great service! Will come again. They work well with you. In and out the same day.
Complicated air conditioning repair. They were able to get it done and even get some old parts to work saving me hundreds of dollars! These guys are great. Update on the AC repair, it blew cold all summer long and worked great! Also had drum breaks done on my gen 1 tacoma and they did a great job. The E break…
The team at Richins was fast to get my car in and fixed and most importantly friendly with excellent customer service. CS is rare to find in a car repair shop so I will definitely be back when I need one of my cars serviced or repaired. Goodbye dealership service department. I found a place I can trust.
Richins was able to work my car into their schedule without a wait, despite no appointment. They fixed the problem and didn't pressure me with unnecessary extras. I felt like the price was fair.
Very upfront about what they needed to do and what the costs were. Very quick and had good communication about time frames.
Richins is the best. They squeezed my vehicle into their schedule same day and had the breaks and rotors replaced within a few hours. The staff is awesome. Thank you guys!
I have trusted this place for years with my car. They are always wonderful.
Richins does a fantastic job. Thanks for your honest fair work. Would recomend them to anyone who needs automotive service work.
Going to Richins is like taking your car to your favorite uncle. I love these guys.
Great service, brakes work fine now.
Got it done in one day
Guys here are straight shooters and did a great job doing the laundry list of maintenance and repairs that I had accumulated. Since I was doing so much they worked with me to make the price even more affordable.
