The gas station pumps are rigged the 87 button doesn’t work and they make you put 93 gas without your consent. And they don’t take accountability. Service sucks and they are unreasonable.

They did solid work fixing my horn, at a great price, and were friendly. But communication from drop-off to pick up was rough. I called 4 times and each time the woman said they'd call me back, but never did. But still, they got it done and I will go back.

Ricky is an honest guy and knows every car. I have always been able to take my car there without an appointment and I have serviced everything from my Audi to a Yukon, to a GMC truck there for everything- brakes, timing belts, interior repairs. really an honest mechanic with very nice hardworking people in the shop . strongly recommended

I've been going to Ricky's for almost 10 years now! He's honest, flexible, and knows his stuff! It's a blessing to have an honest mechanic in midst of so many crooks. I HIGHLY recommend Ricky's. I'm actually on my way there now to have my front and rear motor mounts changed on my Honda Pilot.

I just had to give this man a 5 star rating. Yesterday was my first time at his shop and believe me when I say that this is the kind of guy you would want to check your car. He was very concerned about my safety, humorous, polite and honest. Thanks Ricky for being such a good person.

Updated Review: Ricky is extremely nice and tries his best to work with everyone. Some of his employees are different. I called the shop yesterday and was told they change tires for my particular car at $25 per tire, mind you I have my own tires. I went in this morning and the lady now says the charge will be $80 for both tires. Where did this extra $30 come from? Even if it was other services fees and taxes, what is the $30 covering? I respectfully declined the service and left. Another time I received a high mileage oil change from them for about $41. The next time I took my car to them and they charged me over $70 and told me I must of gotten a different type of oil change. Either they did not give me the right oil the first time when I specifically told them what type of oil change I came for multiple time OR someone upcharged me the second time intentionally. When Ricky is not around the workers there try to get away with what they can. I took my car to V.P. Tires a little further up in Yonkers. The guy there is FOREVER honest and up front (almost never remembers me but always gives me the same courtesy, respect and great service) and changed my two tires for $30 TOTAL ($15 per tire) and he got a NICE tip, as always because he is a great guy (V.P. Tires guy is amazing). Ricky is really nice but I won’t be coming back to this shop for any other services. Old Review: So far so good! I’ve come to this establishment a few times for services. Ricky is always polite and respectful. I have noticed they give more attention to the cars that need to be serviced the day of; one time I left my car for an emissions inspection and for it to be serviced only to find out I needed a new fan belt, this took 3 days. However, I appreciate them doing work on only what is needed and having fair prices as opposed to someone doing work just to take your money. Overall this is a place I will continue to do business with!

I took my car to have the brakes checked at another place and they said it needed $1000 in repairs. I took it to Ricky's because I trust them and they called me back after an hour to tell me to pick up the car because there was nothing wrong with the brakes, just some dust. This is an honest car shop.

HANDS DOWN RICKY IS THE G.O.A.T 🐐 OF MECHANICS!!! Great service, excellent prices, quick turn-around ratio (considering all the other fans of Ricky's lined up for their vehicle's turn) and most of all it's the "transparency" that I value a lot! It's very difficult to put trust in any mechanic. That's why I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Ricky's Automobile Care. He actually CARES and his principles are worth handing over money to his business!

I met Ricky 10 years ago on an emergency recommendation from a friend. My car was making a strange mechanical sound. He was about to close but he waited for me. I had just picked up the vehicle from a mechanic in the city...so I had no idea why it was making that noise. He found out that the old mechanic forgot to put the bolts back on my tires. My family and I could have been seriously hurt. He fixed it on the spot. Did not charge me too much. For 10 years he has been my mechanic. Reliable, honest, hard working and friendly. Everyone at this establishment is courteous and friendly. I appreciate their work and I trust them.

I have used Ricky's service for many years (maybe 15), for a variety of services, from tire/lamp/battery/oil replacement, to tire alignment and emission inspection. Once they even removed a rotten dead raccoon from my engine area, and they still accepted me as a customer afterwards. They are very reliable. They are honest: once they did not pass an emission inspection because of a cracked windshield. So I thoroughly recommend them.

I give Ricky's 4 out of 5 stars for my recent battery replacement. The mechanic replaced my battery quickly and did it while I waited in the car. He did a good job with the replacement from what I can tell. I took away one star because I ordered the battery, paid $170 on a card over the phone, and then I had to call back several times, and didn't get it actually done until over a week later.

Ricky and his team fixed by ABS module and reset the placement of my engine when the engine mounts snapped! The price was very fair and he was very professional. I would recommend him to anyone in need of auto repair.

They always take care of my car and for the pass 4yrs I have not been disappointed yet. They do great work and the customer service is a blessing. I went in to have my car get a check up due to a planned road trip, they check everything from air pressure to lights, oil and breaks. They even test drove along with no charge. Bless!

They provide excellent, friendly service and are quick and reliable. I've heard on multiple occasions that customers wanted to give them extra jobs, but the mechanic kindly explained that it wasn't necessary, even though he could have easily earned more money by doing additional work
