★★★★★ 5.0 David Chu · Dec 2025

We depend on River Road Auto to keep our elderly but beloved vehicles running (a 1995, a 2005, and a 2006). They’ve never disappointed. Their service manager is candid up front (including about likely costs), and makes a sincere effort to meet your desired schedule despite the complications and supply-chain issues that can arise. A “go to”’ establishment!

One of my car’s had a dead battery. I thought it was the alternator. I had it towed to this shop. The mechanics, Eddie, was super helpful and called me almost immediately to let me know that it was in fact a corroded battery. He didn’t beat around the bush. He kept it very open about cost (which was fairly priced), and within a few hours of having my car towed to their shop, the car was fixed and we were back on our way. Will definitely recommend this shop to friends and neighbors and use them for future

AAA towed me here after I broke down mid-roadtrip. Danny and the team worked with me on getting the repair done in a timely way, and for a very reasonable price. Really appreciate their friendly staff and straightforward communication

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If I could give Danny at River Road Auto 10 stars, I would. He’s not only a fantastic mechanic, but also just a genuinely good human being. For starters, his shop is right around the corner from Somerset where my boyfriend lives—super convenient. He’s also incredibly friendly. One day I was sitting in my car waiting while my boyfriend dropped something off, and Danny actually came over just to say hi to me. That’s not just customer service—that’s neighborly charm (and honestly, more than I get from some of my neighbors!). He’s skilled, reliable, and always goes the extra mile to take care of his customers. You can tell he genuinely cares about people, not just cars—which is rare enough that it deserves a parade… or at least a glowing review. Danny has my full endorsement. Hire hi

★★★★★ 5.0 Debra Floyd · Aug 2025

I have been bringing my cars to them for over 15 years and wouldn't take my car anywhere else. Both Bob and Danny are the absolute BEST when it comes to customer service and knowing what needs to be done for adaquately servicing your car. They also employ excellent mechanics. This is definitely the place to bring your car for the very best in keeping it running smoothly!
