Richard Auto Repair

They were able to get me back on the road home. The work was done as quickly as they were able, staff was helpful and responsive.

Hey guys! So yesterday I was driving home to Illinois from Colorado, and had a major failure of my front end driveline components, and I really didn’t have the option to figure out exactly what it was by myself, since I couldn’t let the Jeep roll, and be underneath it to see what was happening. I called around the area in Salina Kansas (where I was stranded the night before, sleeping in the Jeep, to see if there were any junkyards open who might have a front driveshaft ( it had a massive clunking sound and vibration from the front driveshaft from what I could tell) and no one had anything, unfortunately.

But I started calling shops too, to at least have someone look at it and give me an idea of what it was, and the ONLY shop I could find open and willing to help on a Saturday morning, was Richards Repair.

Within 5 minutes, he knew what exactly what the issue was, and had the part ordered and there within just a few hours and promised I’d be back on the road today, and he and his guys 100% followed through with it. Even though the entire front end, axles, differential, everything, had to be dropped and the bushings pressed out... and so on, they still had me on the road again within only 2 hours.

Very friendly guys, and extremely willing to help, and we’re definitely helpful in keeping me from having to sleep in my Jeep again tonight, especially so close to Christmas too, most places are closed already.

Thank you guys so much, I’m sad I didn’t figure it out myself, and it definitely wasn’t something I could do in a parking lot with my limited tools on hand, but all together very grateful that you guys knew what you were doing, and were very affordable on top of it all.

If anyone ever needs service in the Salina KS area, please give these guys a call, they know their stuff.

Quick and reasonable price for some small repairs to the fuel system of my vehicle. Was back on the road in just 36 hours!

Richard has always done a great job at a reasonable price. If you need an actual mechanic give him a call.

Great mechanic! Very reasonable prices.

Really fair and knowledgeable. Treated us right. Seriously.

Went to pay off my truck 🚚

I purchased a car from them.. they were friendly and let Mr know the repairs needed before I left with it. They fixed all repairs needed with in a reasonable time.

Took my vehicle in for a simple engine problem, and while it was there my car was backed into. Damage was done to the front passenger side. Owner said he repair and replace with new parts, but he didn’t. Instead, he tried covering up the damage with horrible body work and paint, and now doesn’t want to resolve the issue. Don’t recommended taking your vehicle here.

Bought car from them that they supposedly did valve job on. Starting leaking oil around timing chain cover. Let them know about it. All they did was put more sealant on it and it's still leaking. Told me air compressor was fine but yet you can visibly see the leaks around it. They are definitely shade tree mechanics.

They steal your money ... they will tell you stuff costs EX: a part your vehicle needs costs 140 dls found out after paying it costs way more about 700 dollars so just to steal 140 dollars from me he lied never fixed my vehicle for about 3 mo fixing new stuff and kept charging me. When I wanted to pick up my vehicle he was never there ... don’t waste money or time here
