My van broke down on a drive from Vegas to Utah this fall and these guys saved my life! They were so kind, helpful, and got me in last minute when I was in a pretty bad and dangerous situation. They worked late on a Friday to help me get back on the road. I’m so grateful and will never forget their hospitality

I wish I could give 1,000 stars to this shop! I traveled with my 2 children out of state, and my engine light came on when I entered St George! My Honda Pilot sounded like Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang! Every Mom's nightmare! I didn't know anyone or have family there... just on my own! I said a prayer and started scrolling shop reviews. This one had 5 stars and reviews grateful to them. I drove to them and met the owner Brandon, his son Brock and dog Moose. They were already booked with a full schedule but squeezed me in. I left my car with them overnight. Brock is outstanding! My car hummed lovely and drove like it was new again! Even found stripped screws and missing caps from my local mechanic! When we drove back to our state, I noticed Brock even took time to polish out the front headlights to shine and look clear again... and did it without me asking or charging for it!!! What mechanic goes the extra mile for a customer they don't know!!! I recommend this shop above all others! My heart is full of gratitude ?

On Saturday, Oct. 20, 2023, I had a problem with my bumper. After running atop a parking bump, something under the front bumper came apart. At 8:15 a.m. I pulled up to the garage and Brock came out to see what I needed. I explained, and he looked under the front bumper and found that I needed to have a plastic plug pushed back in, and one other was missing. He went to the toolbox, found a plastic peg, installed it, and I was on my way. I was so happy he helped me as I was coming from California to Salt Lake. Such a nice person, very helpful, and I can't say how very appreciative I was. Thank you Brock.

Our van was experiencing some issues. We were coming in from out of town. We were recommended to go here to have our van looked at. I am glad that they are the ones we trusted with our van. They were incredible. Between diagnosis and fixing the issue it was about 2 hours. We were pleasantly surprised that they were able to fit us in the same day and had us back on the road the same day. It is hard to find an honest and good mechanic. I would highly recommend them.

AC issues. First off the guy acted like he was the best in town. Lol! Anyway I went ahead with setting up an appointment that was several days before he could have time to look at it. Said if it needed to be flushed it would be $300. So I got to the appointment early and he got the car right in but 10 minutes later came and told me the compressor was leaking goo all over and needed replacing. He took his handy dandy calculator and quoted me &1412.00 to repair. Needless to say I took it to someone else who fixed it for $625.00. He figured I was going to have them fix it. He charged me $70 to tell me I needed a compressor. 15 minutes worth of time! Be careful what you’re getting from them!

Came in because my truck had been making a noise that two other shops couldn’t diagnose and it was driving me absolutely nuts. They squeezed me in on a super busy holiday weekend and found the problem very easily. I was back in the truck that afternoon. I am so grateful to have found riverside!!

I was on a road trip with my jeep wrangler in the north rim of the Grand Canyon crossing over to Ely Nevada to look at old mine sites when the jeep started acting up. I called Brandon at Riverside Auto and he said he could look at it the next day if I brought it in. After having it towed arriving about 3PM, Brandon had his team immediately look at it and by 5 let me know my options. He could not directly diagnose the problem because it was intermittent but said it was probably my fuel pump failing. I had talked to my normal mechanic in San Diego and he had also said it was probably the fuel pump. Brandon was up front and said he could not guarantee that the fuel pump was the problem but was likely the issue, so it was my gamble to take, or he could try testing it more the next day to see if it would fail. I took the gamble and replaced the fuel pump. He prioritized me the next day knowing I was traveling and passing through. He had the Jeep ready to go by 12 the next day and I was back on the road, losing only one day on my trip schedule. The fuel pump was the issue and the jeep ran great afterwards. Getting such quick one-day service was amazing. You don't see this in big cities like San Diego.

I've taken my older car to them several times now, and they've always been quick and on-time. Even for major repairs I've never waited more than 36 hours for my car, and they're often done same-day. They've never recommend a service that I didn't need. If something is critical and needs to be addressed, they'll say so; and if it's not, they'll still make a recommendation, but won't pressure me to do anything about it. I won't say their labor rates are the lowest around, but they're within reason and merited by their expertise, experience, and customer service. Professionals deserve to be compensated like professionals. If you want shadetree rates there are other options in town you can take your chances with. I'd prefer to stick with people who deliver consistently top-notch service. Riverside Automotive checks that box for me.

From SLC area and ran into car problems, stopped by to see if they could look at my car. They mentioned they had booked appointments for the day but would fit us in. 2hours later I got a call they they checked out our car and fixed the issue. So relieved it wasn’t anything major and they were able to fit us in. Thanks guys.

My family and I were vacationing in St. George for a couple days and our van broke down. We couldn’t get a rental because all inventory was out that week and we were literally stuck. Riverside was just as busy as the other shops but went WAY above and beyond what was needed to get our vehicle fixed in a timely and professional way. They were kind and easy to work with. I would highly recommend them!

Felt like we were upsold with something that we didn't need. Labor was 350 bucks. They were way quick though. Just felt taken advantage of.

I was on a weekend road trip, 100s of miles from my long-time trusted mechanic, and had a transmission problem.Riverside Automotive was the only shop open on a Saturday morning, and only until noon. Every bay was full, but they made time to squeeze me in and make sure my truck was safe to drive home.I'm a mechanical idiot, so the fact I left paying only the cost of the diagnosis tells everything you need to know about Riverside.Trust the positive Google reviews about these guys. Professional, courteous, honest.
