My wife and her family have been taking their vehicles to Rivera for years. Weve always found them to be honest and straightforward about required service, at times saving us a lot of money on recommendations from the dealer or other shop that were later deemed superfluous. They can be busy at times and require a bit of lead time to schedule appointments, but they still find time to help address emergencies and urgent fixes. And once you do take your car in, they turn it around quickly and on time. Overall, they are good mechanics, trustworthy, and a great partner to help maintain a vehicle.
Absolutely fantastic staff, would recommend mike specifically. saved us thousands from the subaru dealership who gave us an expensive list of non-problems for us to fix. amazing turnaround time for fixes, too! give them your business! :-)
All of these guys are very knowledgeable and great at what they do. What I like most is that they’re honest. I also recommended them to my mom and my cousin, they were both happy with the work and relieved that they didn’t feel taken advantage of. I don’t live in Lakewood but It is worth the trip, they make you feel like a friend and not just a customer.
Mike and his crew are hands down the best mechanics Ive ever encountered. When I first moved to the area i took my car to a nearby shop and was quoted an outrageous price for some work, that led me to Rivera and I havent taken my cars anywhere else since. I have taken several different cars and trucks in for work and Rivera is always professional, straight forward, diligent, and knowledgeable. I have also reccomended them to family and friends and have heard nothing but good things back from them. All around great company.
Rivera is great! Came in for a 60,000 mile service on my Tacoma. They only charged me for what I needed and finished the repair in a timely manner. Only repair shop I’ll be using the the future.
Really cool and honest shop. Diagnosed a problem on my vehicle with accuracy and fixed it pretty quick. LIkely to go back, would highly recommend!
Everyone is so kind. And they are very informative and knowledgable
They are great! Dependable, kind and you can be sure the jobs done right!
I recommend them 100% 👍
Horrible experience with this company. Installed a starter that broke 3 weeks latter. came out here told me it was my fault and left. Not a problem its a 30 minute job guess Ill do it myself. lmao.... gose to show how much this company cares about the work they do......Also have horrible experience with this company with scheduling I missed out on multiple jobs myself because he said he would meet me at a certain time never did didnt hear from him for 4 hours past agreed time. What joke. Do your self a favor and find another company.....charged me 120 dollars as well just to plug his computer into my deisel and tell me to press on the throttle dont get inspections from them either joke company. Wish I could operate my business like that. Be for warned.
Honest, quality work, good customer service! Thanks Rivera!
Im a do it yourself kid of guy, know my way around a tool box, keep it on a budget, but sometimes you need a pro with the right equipment and experience. I was a first time customer this week and I couldnt be happier with the results on my vehicle. I had control arms replaced on my vehicle. The service was timely and done at a fair price. These guys are professional and focused on customer satisfaction. 100% Ill be going back to them in the future.
It’s difficult to know who you can trust when your car needs service. I’ve encountered a fair number of shady mechanics around town, but the guys at Rivera Auto Service are as honest and trustworthy as they come. Unless I’m out of town, I’ll never take my car anywhere else.I dropped off my 2000 Ford Escort ZX2, a glorified hunk of scrap metal, with a laundry list of maintenance items that needed to be performed. I spoke with Chris, who listened to me ramble about the numerous electrical and mechanical problems I was experiencing. He was very reassuring and told me that all of the maintenance items I listed would be thoroughly investigated and taken care of. The guys in the shop quickly got to work diagnosing issues and even took time out of their busy day to call me with status updates. No maintenance was performed without my approval, so there were no surprises. The car was finished sooner than I expected and the bill was much lower than I thought it would be!Rivera Auto Service has been in business for a long time with good reason: they know what they’re doing, and they know how to give their customers a great experience.If you want a mechanic that is honest, friendly, and professional, give Rivera Auto Service a shot. Mike and his crew are sure to impress.
Honest! Thats all you need!
Great service Mike is a professional I n every aspect!Would recommend too anyone .
This place is amazing.. Honesty is key when trying to find a good shop when your vehicle goes down.. So this place is honest, fast, friendly and family owned for over 2 decades...
It’s hard to find honest mechanics but Rivera does it right, and doesn’t over sell you stuff you don’t need.
Have used Rivera automotive the past few years and have had exceptional service! They have fair prices and do what they promise. I have had both my Honda civic in for work plus my Honda accord and have walked out happy every time! Both Mike and Louie are great and I highly recommend Rivera automotive!
Got ripped off on a quote for front wheel bearings.
Mike and his crew take great care of my vehicles. Truck, hybrid, RV - they work on it. They go above and beyond to take care of their customers. We have found them trustworthy and nice. They explain the repair and fix it in a timely fashion. They even figured out a customized exhaust system on my ancient RV when no parts could be located. I highly value the reliable care my vehicles get. They have a realistic appointment schedule so you can plan your time.
Went in for an oil change and the guys did a great job. Fast and efficient. A+
Every person at the shop is nothing but nice, kind, and honest. I went in for my 90,000 mile maintenance on my Subaru and some other issues my car was having. They kept me updated with the status of my car and only did what was needed for the 90,000 mile maintenance. For an example of how honest they are, I change all my own air filters and yet whenever I took my car in to the dealership I was always told I needed new air filters even if I had just changed them. Mike at Rivera’s was the first mechanic in the last five years who didn’t try to take advantage of me and told me my air filters looked great and didn’t not need replacement. I really appreciated this honesty and it made me trust him even more with my car.
Oil change Great service and fast
Im a 58 yr old shade tree mechanic and have a LOT of experience in working with professional mechanics when I come to the end of my limited skills or tools. Mike at Rivera is one of the most pleasant, honest, competent, professionals I have found. He runs a great shop and a great business.
I called and was told to bring my truck in on Monday. They finslly checked it out on Thursday. I was given the excuse of, we had a rush on several transmissions to work on. I had to keep on dropping in to check on progress. I had brought a list of of services I needed done. The list was ignored. Long story short it took them three weeks and part of the services on the list was ignored and I was told the reason it took so long was i had brought my truck on without an appointment. I paid then to turn off the check engine light which came back on shortly after the truck was returned. I wrote the owner a letter. He called and all he would do is apologized. He did not offer a refund for work that failed nor any compensation for time lost on my part . He would not take ownership for inadequate customer service.
Professionals at what they do no doubt. Top notch shop in my opinion.
Mike and his crew are honest men who know a lot about their trade! I am thankful this shop is only up the street from me. I never worry about being gouged. Thank you!
I have been a customer of Mikes for 20 years. He is a great mechanic and a great person. I do a lot of my own mechanic work but when I need an honest quality mechanic I take my vehicles to Mike. I have recommended him to my family and friends and they have all become raving fans!
Mike and Louie and crew are the best! They do not upsell or gouge prices! they really know the auto service business and professional and clean shop! Stand behind their work and warranties! Never dispute if I have to come back for the same problem! they just take care of it! stop going to other places and come here for the best experience ever and honesty! I am a customer > No relation!
This weekend I am fixing yet another part on my sons car that was replaced in the last year at Rivera. This time it is the water pump, and again the cause is volts that were not tightened at the shop. My son had previously had a brake caliper come loose after the bolt to the steering knuckle was left loose and fell out. After inspecting I found two of the other calipers installed hand tight. I was out of town when my son needed work done, got charged an arm and a leg and I have had to address every part since. Just really disappointing.
Always fair. These are people you can count on and trust.
They do incredible work on cars.
Mike is a real honest guy with a solid crew...have been coming here for years. Doesnt try to upsell or screw you over. Only mechanic Ill come to. Highly recommend!
Have had my familys vehicles brought here and always a great job and professional with a family feel!!
This was recommended by a co-worker of mine. Quality work at a reasonable price and they even fixed my door handle without me asking!!!!. I have finally found a mechanic in Colorado I feel like I can trust and will bring my bronco to exclusively.
I am do grateful to have found wonderful car services here and would recommend this place to anyone.Their professionalism and attention to detail remains unmatched!
Mike and Chris are great!
Exceptional customer service. Quick, efficient, honest and friendly.
Very honest, very reasonably priced, and excellent service. These guys fixed my Expedition for about 10% of what the dealership was going to charge me (and the dealership was going to fix a bunch of stuff that didnt need fixing)! I wont take my Ford anywhere else as long as I live in CO.
Im here from out of town and had a hose burst. They got me right in and the prices were amazing!!! Definitely recommend!
Saved me alot of time and money. Highly recommend.
Mike and his crew are awesome! They stayed on a problem with my son’s truck for several days. A frustrating situation that they handled like pros and with a smile on their faces.
Been going here for years. Feel like I can take my car in and not be sure whats wrong but not worry if are going to gouge me or take advantage of me. I highly recommend them.
Great service and pricing, and the best staff any where. Youll never be disappointed in the service or their smile. Thanks so much, Mike and everyone at Rivera.
Appreciated Michaels honesty. Rare these days. Didnt try to find something just to make a buck. I would certainly trust him again.
Mike is great, very trustworthy, they always take amazing care of my Nisson Altima, I always leave as a very happy customer, I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else
