in your pocket.

Pick the closest match. You can add detail next.

03 — Safety

Can I still
drive this?

A live read on whether your car needs immediate attention. Not a final diagnosis — a smarter gut check.

The mechanic

Meet Richie.
No middleman.

I started Richie Auto because I got tired of seeing people leave shops confused, overcharged, and still not sure what was actually wrong with their car.

Here, you deal with me directly. No service advisors. No pressure. No unnecessary repairs.

I'll tell you what needs attention now, what can wait, and what makes the most sense for your car and your budget.

Just real diagnostics, solid work, and someone you can actually reach when you need help.
