Customer service, honesty and integrity are alive and well at Richmond Import Service. I have been a customer for 15 years, and have never had an unpleasant experience having my car serviced from minor to more complex issues. They have always made me aware of less expensive options when there have been some available, and have only suggested what is necessary to keep my truck running like new. When its time for a new car in a few years I will consider buying another Toyota, in part because I will be able to continue using Richmond Import for my car care needs. Thanks to Chris and everyone.
The best of the best mechanics. Always done right 1st time!!
Best auto repair shop Ive ever dealt with.They keep my old RAV4 running!!
Ive been taking my car here to get serviced since moving to the area a couple of years ago. Theyre honest people and charge fairly.
Cannot Recommend them more highly. Truly looking out for what’s good for your vehicle and not their pockets. They will see every Toyota I ever own.
Like most of other reviewers have mentioned, they are the most honest, reasonably priced and punctual when it comes to Toyota car repair. They wont sell you anything your car dont need.
Not happy with being charged $100 more than I agreed to pay them to get a headlamp to work. Almost $700! They didnt call me to get the additional amount approved... they just added on an extra $100 to adjust the headlamps. Seems like adjusting the headlamp would be part of the $150 in labor they charged for installation. When I asked why they didnt call me, he said they were just too busy. Not a very good excuse. They seem to do good work, but they need to improve their communications with their customers.Update: Im updating my review to 5-stars. Chris had reached out to me to discuss my experience, and I was really impressed with his willingness to make things right. I know things dont always go right, but this shop clearly wants to address customer concerns when things dont quite meet expectations. Thanks Chris. I look forward to doing business again with you guys in the future.
Weve taken our Honday CRVs there for years and have had fantastic service! Totally trustworthy.
They fixed my Jeep and solved other problems quickly at a very reasonable cost. I do not have many good experiences with auto repair, but this is one of them. I am out of town and came to them randomly. I am a car guy and a mechanical engineer.
As long time clients we have been taking cars to Richmond Import for years, and we continue to be surprised by their integrity. They look for the best parts at the lowest price and tell clients which repairs make economic sense. What other auto repair shop refers you if theres a better alternative? If you have a Lexus more than a year old Richmond Import will take better care of your car, and of you, than the dealership.
Great service and prices. Very trustworthy.
The best place to take your car for a professional service. Very honest and professional people. They dont charge you double or triple for parts like other auto mechanics, and very reasonable labor charge per hour, and no extra hours charge. I deff recommend this place.
I have been a customer for a long time and I have always got great service. Honest and hard working group. Still go to them even though I do not work in the area anymore.
Have been bringing my cars here for years. They do only what truly needs to be done. Very honest.
I had struts / shocks install on my 2000 Toyota 4Runner and they did an awesome job. The price was cheap and the same as I was quoted.
This place is the best kept secret in #RVA for Lexus and Toyota owners. Marty and Chris are HONEST and they care about their customers. They work hard to do a good job at affordable cost and are forthcoming on what must be done vs what could be done, offering pros and cons so you, the consumer can make an informed choice. I highly recommend RIS.
Chris and the guys are very helpful with all of my automotive needs
Absolutely the BEST place to have your car fixed in Richmond! The owner and his team are honest, reasonable, and of good character. I wouldnt think of taking my car anywhere else!! I am so thankful for Richmond Import Service!!
Chris and Matt are the best honest mechanics you will find
I legit thought all hope was lost with my 2002 Toyota Avalon, but then someone recommended me this place and I decided to give them a chance.....Best. Decision. Made!! HIGHLY recommend you take your car there for the honesty and best prices.
Could not recommend this shop enough! Honest as they come and I trust them completely. Completely different experience than what you typically get at a dealership shop.
Excellent shop that truly strives to balance economy and excellent work. Extremely knowledgeable and professional.
Great service! Had my 83 Land Cruiser inspected there and a few other small things, When I got home and opened the hood I noticed they fixed a few of my vacuum leaks without charging me, its the little things like this that make a difference! Thanks
Always helpful. My relationship with Chris and company started over ten years ago. I found a Toyota specialists flyer on my windshield at my workplace in Innsbrook, within walking distance of Richmond Import Service. Been taking my cars and referring to family ever since. I left my work laptop there once. Not only did they call me, they stayed open an hour or so longer so I could come pick it up. I trust them. They arent trying to upsell me on anything. I keep buying Toyotas knowing I have a good place to take them.
After taking my rx330 to 2 other places, including Lexus of Richmond, the folks at Lexus Specialist Import were able to quickly diagnose and correct my cruise control problem. Working fine now! I wont be taking my RX anywhere else.
Fast, meticulus and very good value. Dealerships wish they were this good.
Very professional, reasonably priced and qreat quality work on my Lexus. I am so glad I found them after spending years servicing my SUV at the local Lexus dealership.
Honest, friendly, smart, fair price - Highly recommend!
Extremely friendly, explain their process well and will not pull the dealership move of saying everything under the sun needs to be fixed. Will be taking my vehicle back to them.
Excellent service!!
I have taken my Lexuses and Toyotas to RIS for 15 years now, and thats where I will continue to go for service. They are prompt, efficient, courteous, professional, and reasonably priced. Every company who provides a service of any kind should study them. They are the model for how a company should treat its customers.
Awesome repair facility great people good prices
Absolutely the best. Ive known these guys for 15 years.
Great service. Honest. Their honesty saves me money.
Terrible service! I had an appointment to drop off and pick up on Friday, but didnt get my car back until Monday. Was quoted that the work to be done would be $500 but was forced to pay $900! I never received a call for the extra work that needed to be done.
Best in town.
Great place, appreciate their honesty!
Im sorry to say theyve lost a customer due to the poor customer service exhibited by the new manager.
