Ron's Auto Repair Center for oil change
Clear ✕All 34 Google reviews tagged “Oil change”
So happy to have my car back in top shape! They did a great job with the repairs my car needed! One of the most valuable things in life as an adult is having a reliable mechanic you can rely on! I took it to Honda originally and they quoted me waaaaaay more and did not put the care or love my car needed so when I…
I have taken cars to Ron's Auto Repair Center on several occasions going back to when the battery conked out in my dad's car. Ron's had us back on the road by closing time, although we had no appointment. In the last year-and-a-half I have had my car in for replacing parts and oil changes and general maintenance.…
Had an oil change and they thoroughly went thru the car and provided photos, customer service is great, have always been willing to answer any questions and have done professional work!!
The staff were personable and very helpful, they even gave me a free ride home.
Ron's Auto Repair is x always very thorough in the services they provide. This was a regular oil change and maintenance. The6 checked to see if any other maintenance needed to be done to prevent future problems.
They were great with communication and I didn't feel pressured into getting anything I didn't need.
As a college girl finding a place to get my car fixed is intimidating and can be challenging. Ron’s popped up with great reviews so I called and they fit me in later that day! Very kind people, took care of my car and did an evaluation on my car, better than basic expectations. At the end he even showed me how to…
We've used Ron's for several years now and have always been very happy with them.
The people there are so nice. Scheduling was easy, and when I realized I needed something else, they were able to accommodate me.
Thorough and timely and informative on the work done.
I would recommend Ron’s Auto to all my friends. They are honest and always ask me for approval before making any repair.
Ron’s always takes great care of my car for a great price! They check in after the work is done to make sure I’m happy with it, too. I don’t go anywhere else!
I really trust this business. I love the texts I receive on my vehicle and the options I have if they suggest to have work on something else based on the free Inspection they conduct. It really is a slick process and my vehicle is always done quickly.
Great service! Friendly staff. Will be going back for future automotive needs.
My parents and I have been a loyal customers for many years! They are always professional, and they will give me a call if they find anything. Because of Ron’s Auto, I’ve been able to keep my 20-year-old car in excellent condition and running beautifully since buying it all those 20 years ago. Great job!
Excellent work and care
Easy early bird drop off in the evening, inspection report by text link the next morning, then proceed with service. Very convenient.
Amazing. Very helpful. Will definitely use them again.
As always, service you can trust. Repairs were done in a very timely manner. I like that fact that they text and email photos from the vehicle inspection and clearly explain what items need attention and what can wait. No one likes to spend money on repairs, but with Ron's Auto Repair Center, I am always confident…
They always do great work.
Very helpful and they got me in quickly. Quality service and nice people!
