I used Steve Righetti for dozens of years and at one time of my life I was an after market parts distributor so I do know something about the auto repair business. Steve is the most honest and knowledgeable person in Marin County auto repair business. He is a regular go to person for other repair shops when they are stumped by a problem. They wont keep your car all day from 8AM to 5pm if they can get you going in far less time but then they do get busy because of their reputation. In my 60 years of car ownership I have never found anyone of such impeccable honestly, knowledge and skills in the repair business. They will use lower cost parts if they will do the job properly but only if they know they will work without problems, otherwise they will use the original brand of parts. They do charge the going rate for proper service but you will save money in the long run. I used them exclusively for many years of automobile ownership. Im sometimes surprised that there isnt a line out the door. If youre a scammer or an unreasonable person dont waste their time.

The best auto service in town.Honest, affordable and very good

HE IS A AGONIST GUY, AND HAS A GOOD HEART. I HAVE KNOWN STEVE FOR A LONG TIME.

Always great service! Beats the dealership prices hands down. Dependable service for two generations. He was my dads top pick mechanic and now Steve is mines as well. Ill be back when service calls.

Honest, knowledgeable, fair. Three great characteristics for any mechanic. Steve and Roger know there stuff and I would highly recommend them to both family and friends.

The auto shop you wish you found earlier. Old-school, hands-on, honest, and super sleuths when it comes to car troubles. Twice now Steve has pulled a Dr. House on my 99 4Runner, finding and fixing some pretty tough troubles with engineuity, clearly and patiently communicating the situation and my options all the way. Friendly, honest, and damn good mechanics who love their jobs. What more could you ever want?

I have been bringing my family cars and pickup truck to Righetti Auto since 1997. These guys are not only experts on maintenance and major repairs, but, more importantly, they are honest and sincere about minimizing costs without sacrificing quality and safety -- over the short and long term of your vehicles life.No matter what you drive, and how you drive it, do yourself a favor and give the guys at Righetti a call or just stop by... they are super friendly and you and your car will be glad you did.

Steve, Roger and Bill are the best mechanics in Marin! Super car smart, thorough and honest. Steve is the pathologist of car engines - roots out the disease and gives you expert advice. My 12 year old Jeep loves our visits to Righetti Auto!

Steve and his staff were extremely friendly and welcoming; I felt very comfortable there. But what really stood out to me was how honest Steve was with me. I know nothing about cars, and its obvious, but Steve didnt take advantage of that like a lot of auto shops have tried to in the past. He also gave me an extremely good price on my battery/installation. Lets just say Im coming back here for any of my car needs, despite the 40 minute drive from where I live!

When a local noticed my car smoking when I pulled into a San Rafael gas station, he recommended I reach out to Steve Righetti. He called him up, put me on the phone with him, and Steve was helping me out within fifteen minutes. Not only was Steve (and his colleague Roger) extremely efficient when troubleshooting my car’s problem, but he was extremely kind. He recognized that I was having a rough day while traveling for family matters and kept me smiling while he worked. He was more than fair and did his best to pinpoint the issue at minimal cost, going so far as to drive down to pick up a part so that I could make my way back by the end of Saturday (instead of being stuck until Monday business resumed. He even called Monday morning to ensure I made it back to the South Bay safely--which I did. Take your business to Steve if you’re looking for someone you can trust to do the job and treat you well. I’m extremely grateful I was pointed in his direction.

Great guys overall and honest mechanics (makes you respect their profession).Steve and Bill gave me a thorough evaluation of my 2000 Honda Odyssey Van. Fully inspected the car, fixed the problem and changed my oil for around $100. They definitely earned my business.

Trustworthy, personal, and dang good. Will explain things to you, will find the best deal on parts. They remind me of the Car Talk bros somehow! Id been searching forward, finally found my mechanic for my cute little Toyota Prius.

I take all of my cars here and the convenience and professionalism of these guys is great.Ford truck, Saab, Volvo and even my Maserati!Not to mention the past vehicles serviced over the yearsI highly recommend them!

First class service and caring about my vehicle! I have a 2001 cargo van and It stays young by the expert service at Righetti. Thank you Steve and your incredible staff.

I call Righetti Automotive like a visit to the hospital. Steve Righetti has the knowledge in his head which is why I call him the doctor. He is quick efficient and tells it like it is. His mechanics are top notch and they deal with all types of vehicles. Unless it was a warranty issue where you had to deal with the dealer I would not hesitate to recommend them.7/23/18The Doctor saved my engine in my F150. A/C was taking time to cool. After diagnosis he determined my fan clutch was not working snd could have burned up my motor.Righetti is the best!

Steve Righetti has been here 40 years and taken care of my companys fleet of trucks and family vehicles. The experience they have results in time and money saved over the dealerships inexperienced technicians.Service writers at the dealership are aggressive about sales and paid bonuses for making the dealership money over a specified amount and encourages them to perform unnecessary replacement of parts and services at your expense.I am more than capable of repairing my own vehicles but not having the time to do so... I trust this repair facility.

Steve and his crew are the best! They are great technicians and they know how to work with a client for the best outcome for both so that it always ends up a win-win. I highly recommend them.Paul Baffico

Steve and Bill have been taking care whatever I drive for at least 20 years. They are smart, kind, professional, and great at what they do - and an incredible value.

We have two classic MR2s and Steve is the ONLY place well take them. A Lexus SUV as well. He has done amazing work, technical stuff, stuff with our classics that is sometimes a PitA but hes always ALWAYS willing to go the extra mile with us to do it and do it right. We come all the way down from Novato just to go to Steve and would even if we lived 50 miles away (or more!)... Hes just that good.

These guys are the best. So happy I found them. I will never go anywhere else!

Expert diagnostics and honest repairs.

Expert and descent guys. These are among whom give you a great impression of thier profession

Nice enough guys but just remarkably slow. My oil change took 3 hours longer than quoted. Ran unnecessary tests without asking me and then tried to get me to pay for it. Further charged me over the quote

I cannot properly describe how happy I am with the service i received from these fine gentlemen!! So I will sum things up!! My 10 yr old vehicle has not run this good since i bought it 7 yrs ago!! Not only did they do a superb job but the were honest too!! They did not rip me off and insisted that I inspect any and all parts that were replaced. ( as per the law) If you do not want just any Joe Shmo touching your baby and you want outstanding work and fair prices, I would highly recommend these guys! They work on anything from Ferraris to little import beaters.

Ive never had a bad experience with RighettisThey have always done a great job from complete engine replacement to routine maintainanceThey have my highest recommendation

They do honest work and if theres an issue thwy take care of it right away.

Steve and Bill offer true American Auto service, honest and hard working they give the best service and care for your car. Every time !

I have had Righetti automotive work on my.vehicles for more than 25 years. Always quality and backs his work.
