I was in a terrible spot after hitting a driveshaft in middle of I35, these folks got me patched up and sent me on my way! Special thanks to Russ for good convo and tires! Your amazing!
Friendly and efficient.
Excellent work done, they fixed my tires and helped me identify the cause of the issue
I appreciated that all that was checked on my car ready for winter. It was so very helpful that they informed me I had more tread on my tires and they were not ready to be changed. Really appreciate this
Stopped in to check engine light, they checked it out, took care of it and no charge. WILL GO TO THEM FOR ALL AUTO CARE
I had a flat tire, and Ron’s auto repair got me in immediately and had my tired fixed very quickly. Thankful for their quick service.
The shop was short handed, but they kept us informed of the progress of our vehicle and offered a loaner car to ride us over until repairs were completed. Always great customer service!!
The people there are so nice. Scheduling was easy, and when I realized I needed something else, they were able to accommodate me.
I've been taking my cars to Ron's Auto for over 10 years. They always shoot me straight and don't try to upsell things I don't need. My expectations have been met or exceeded every time. This most recent visit, I appreciated the time they took to explain the repair process, why it was necessary and the pros & cons…
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.
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!
Did the job in a timely fashion.
