After being lied to and ripped off by so many local mechanics/shops, I was pretty skeptical when my friend recommended I take my car to Ken. I really didn't think he would be any cheaper or any more trustworthy than the rest. Within minutes of meeting him though, my mind was completely changed and, by the time I left the garage after my very first appointment, I knew I'd never take my car to anyone else.

Michael is probably the best you will find in area very honest straight forward. He always busy but that's because his quality of work is very good. I would recommend Riverside Garage & Transmission to anyone

These guys are very good and very honest. Mike replaced the computer and a couple sensors in my 98 K1500. It had the infamous Chevy misfire. I couldn't figure it out and they took care of it. They did a very good job. I'll be going to them from now on.

I've had nothing but good service over at Riverside. They communicate well and are understanding of your schedule. They have a very fast turn around, paired with reasonable prices, Riverside is the only place I'll be taking my vehicles. Bob and Micheal can do anything you need done on your vehicles, all you have to do is ask. I would highly recommend Riverside Garage & Transmission if you want fast, reliable, reasonable and quality service. 10/10

I was impressed with the professionalism and attention to detail provided by the team at Riverside. My questions were answered thoroughly. I wasn't pressured to add more services, as is the case in most auto repair companies. I highly recommend this company.

First off, I don't know that much about cars. I just needed an oil change and I was on my lunch break. I called multiple establishments to see if anyone could help me. No one else answered the phone which I thought was odd because it was a weekday. The only one who answered was Bob, and boy I'm I glad he did. This was the best service I received with any auto services I have used.

Not only was the oil change quick, but Bob and Michael also did a quick look at my car for immediate problems. They also told me some of the problems I would be having and recommended things to help keep my car cruising. Once I left, my car was purring like a kitty cat. Thank you Bob and Michael. I will hopefully find time to come again and get a more through diagnostic.

Bob's shop is the best! Michael took the time to drive my vehicle for awhile hooked up the machine to figure out what was wrong with it, no one else could figure it out. It was fixed and back to me in no time and now drives like new. Thank you both so much! I would recommend them to anyone!

We really appreciate Bob and Michael. They have the talent and know-how to take care of our family vehicles. Great with pinpointing problems with all the electronics in newer vehicles. We are longtime customers. Always a great experience.
