Vista is lucky to have Ricky s Auto Repair & Alignment here and it s easy to support this local business. Ricky is a highly experienced and knowledgeable mechanic business owner who is honest, reliable and trustworthy. Replaced my brakes and rotors at a very reasonable price along with other services rendered. 11/10 recommended. A local legend.

Ricky is AMAZING!! I highly recommend him!! My son was messed over buying a used car, it didn't have a catalytic converter on it and they had turned off the check engine light. Ricky saved us half the cost. I even asked him to check the brakes and those came back good. He's an honest guy shop.

Rudy is the mechanic on-site, had my van break down on the way to work, tow driver recommended him because of his background in larger trucks. He wasn't able to fix my repair due to the extent of it but was honest and provided a quote to replace my motor and labor. Labor hours are better than many other shops. Even though it wasn't fixed, I appreciated the honesty here and will refer him to anyone in need!

Not very reliable I called to make an appointment they don't do appointments for an oil change I was told I would have to leave it at the shop with no time estimate does it really take days to change oil?

I have a Honda Del Sol that had no factory AC. I went through countless shops, asking for help on a possible AC system installation but none was up for the task.. Ricky s was the only auto shop that was willing to take on the challenge! They were recommended by a friend, and by far, the best recommendation anyone has ever made. Ricky and his tech (Johnny) killed it! CLEAN installation, knowledgeable, and true professionals. I now have a Del Sol with a cold AC, as if it were factory installed. Couldn t be any happier with the job done! Superb work by Ricky s Auto!Service: A/C installation & repair

I found Ricky through Social Network and the reputation by the community. I took our Audi for a 4 wheel alignment and Ricky and his technicians did an excellent job. I shopped several shops and Ricky was the quickest availability, best price hands down.I ll return to Ricky for future mechanical needs.Service: Steering & suspension repair

I first went to Ricky's about a year ago yes this review is over due. My former family mechanic who I had used for 13 years, I had never used anyone else on my cars couldn't find out what was going on with my Honda but I new there was definitely a problem. My sister referred me to Ricky to see if he could take a crack at it and boy did he! Ricky was straight forward and told me my options on what we could do to repair my old faithful. He worked on her and when I got it back she runs like new. I'll mention it's a 2000 Honda Civic very old but low mileage ! It's been a year now and she's still going strong zipping me around where I need to go. Ricky has also worked on another old clunker I have and got her in tip to shape. I think it's safe to say now with it being over a year and my Honda still going strong he's a great honest Machine that I will use as long as he's doing the business I will also add I work alot and Ricky made it easy for me to get my car after hours so there's no issues. If your trying to decide what machine to use and are unsure go to Ricky's you won't regret it !

Been a satisfied customer of this place for a while now. Ricky is honest and stands behind the work he and his staff perform. Large and small repairs have been completed to my satisfaction. Honestly can say I have never felt as if Ricky is trying to add on extra repairs just to inflate the price.Services: Engine repair, BrakesServices: Engine repair, Brakes

My previous mechanic retired and recommended this shop. I recently went for the first time and had a good experience. The service was great, everyone was professional and polite, and they got to my car quickly. The shop is fairly small and doesn t have a spacious waiting area but it s walking distance to plenty of places to wait. I was pleased and will return.

I needed my 'headliner' replaced and would be in N. County for 2 days. The wrong material was ordered (not really Ricky's fault) so my car wasn't finished as promised. Causing me to have to make the 80 mile round-trip, again. Ricky took 'full responsibility' and gave me a nice discount. He's honest, has integrity and I would recommend his shop.

Ricky is a great guy! Super friendly and respectful. A great business man to meet the needs of customers and make them feel welcome while at the shop. Don't be discouraged by the outside appearance. If you need auto work, don't hesitate coming to Ricky.

I think they are fine with standard repairs. I had a wheel alignment and new struts put in but when I got it back it pulled to the right. They charged me an extra $118 to fix it. Not to happy about that.
