Rich Phillips Auto Service

I have been going to Rich for a little over a year now. He is excellent, attentive and very knowledgeable. I wish I would of know about him before I had my engine rebuilt. I’m constantly doing restoration projects for Chevelle. If Rich can’t do it, he knows someone that can. He is very reasonably priced, work is pristine and the customer service is great.

Great service! Rich is so nice, and got me right in. They do a thorough inspection an you feel taken care of. Pep boys is cheaper… but there service is awful. You get what you pay for! :) I will be back.

Stopped in today for an oil change. The main mechanic, I’m assuming was Rich, was so nice. He talked to me while my oil was being changed. His mechanic was fast and I was pleased with the job. Like the other reviews state he doesn’t take advantage of you and try to charge you for unnecessary things. I didn’t rate 5 stars because it was about $ 50 for an oil change and right down the street was a deal advertised at $ 20 for an oil change and free car wash. But like anything else
In life you get what you pay for and I’d go to Rich again because of how he treated me.

I expected a ton of reviews when I came here today. Such a shame. Rich, his Son and Coworker are the best. Very honest. I usually go to Rich but this time I went to Genie in Pt. Loma for a car wash and ended up doing all my oil changes there instead.
BIG MISTAKE. My check engine light came on while driving out of town a week later.
So, I went to Rich to check it and he said the diagnostics would cost $ 90 but, he would put the $ 90 towards whatever repair is needed. I went across the street for lunch and decided to do my nails. Rich called to tell me that the air cond. hose was detached. What a relief.
I called Genie the next day and explained that the hose where their mech. worked had been removed or detached. They gave me my $ 90 back that I paid Rich and I was a happy camper. In the future I will stay with Rich for all my repairs — — it’s not worth going anywhere else.
I strongly recommend you send your Mother/​Father/​Sister/​Brother and all your friends to Rich — he will treat you RIGHT!

Rich is sooooo nice. Not a schemer at all. My car failed smog and I took it here to get it checked out. I’m a chick and I don’t know much about cars so he could have easily ripped me off but instead he gave me FREE, great advice. In the end, I passed smog and I didn’t end up needing any work done on my car. Very honest person, hard to find this trait in people nowadays.
