R & I Automotive Repair - Auto Repair Shop in San Rafael Ca - San Rafael (CA)

Bryce Parmelly There just arent many places these days that do amazing work and arent out to make a buck. I used to do as much of my own work as I could to avoid crazy marin mechanic costs, but once I found this place I dont go anywhere else. They are honest, fair, and actually care about customer support. I have worked with Jason numerous times and he always takes care of me and is is totally honest about what I DO and DON"T need. He (and the other mechanics) take time to explain whats going on and again charge incredibly less than any other mechanic Ive been to in Marin. You just feel good working with this place, never gonna leave if I dont have to. Thanks Jason for all your care over the years.

Tom Hansen Great shop. Trustworthy, reliable, and extensive expertise. I take my cars here and have recommended friends to do the same.

Jill Kelly Judy is amazing. I think she saved my life noticing a tire in really bad shape. She is honest, direct and so much fun!

Michael Schubert Love these guys, they have done work on my Subaru twice now adding aftermarket off road parts (from Rallitek). I would highly recommend them to anyone for either car fixes or car upgrades. The owner is very detail oriented and explained to me everything he had to do for one of the mods I had him install (a winch kit), which was so helpful!!!

Feeve Wells I’m completely happy with Auto Repair Specialist. They have exceptional quality service as well as great customer care and support. Whether I make an appointment or it’s a last minute brake light that needs repaired, it’s done with professionalism. I highly recommend the mechanics and their customer service.

Michael Watkins I had a truck with numerous problems, including transmission, electrical, and mechanical issues. These guys stuck with it and took care of all the problems. I was going to sell the truck, but it is in such good shape now, that I am keeping it. They were excellent to deal with and the pricing was fair.

Rez Parviz Great shop. If you own a Jag , dont go anywhere else . These guys are the most honest and down to earth guys around . By far the have they best service and the best prices. They will never charge you more than what the actual time involved. Joe and Justin are class acts and Tim is a top shelf machanic .

J Campbell Ive been use Fernandos for years! Excellent service! Fair and honest! I highly recommend. He replaced my transmission (Lexus SUV) a couple years ago and no issues and much less than the dealer!

Mia H. My Jeep broke down literally across the street from this business. They saved me from a tight spot, gave me a great deal and were so honest. First, Rey came right over to give me a jump so I could get my car out of the business entrance I was blocking and limp over to their garage. He immediately diagnosed the faulty alternator and possible battery issues. It just so happens i only *look* like a clueless millenial chick, but really Ive been learning to work on my own classic car project truck for the last 2 years, so I fully understood the problem and cost to fix. What they ended up charging me was barely what it would have cost me to go buy the new alternator and battery at retail prices and replace them myself. Then, when I went to go pick it up, the owner Fernando texts me, "Oh, by the way, you didnt need a new battery after all, so please get your refund when you pick up." So honest!! Im so impressed. Even though I can do a lot of things myself, Im going to take the Jeep back to these guys if it needs anything because its that good of a deal. I highly recommend them to anyone, but especially other women who might feel uncomfortable at car repair places. All the stars.

rando daruler Was very easy and fast. My car was done by the date give even though there was one time use parts that had to get ordered for it, it was still done. Also appreciate the updates on my vehicle, letting me know what work was done and what was next to do. Best part of all was the end result. Looks like nothing happened and looks like it was brought back to new.
