Called him to see if he could figure out why the my truck isn’t starting. He told us to drop it off and leave the key in the drop box. After a few day we called him and he said he was wondering who’s vehicle that was. A few day later I asked him if he was able to diagnose the issue of the vehicle he replied “yes, kinda, actually no I haven’t.” He then informed me the he will take a look at it and will get back to us. Many days past after our conversation on the phone, we ended up calling him again and due to being busy which I understood let us know he will be looking at the truck and contacting us on Friday….we didn’t get a call. I decided to drive by to check out the truck since it was parked on the side of the business on the weekend. Found the truck’s window shattered, cabin of the vehicle rummaged through and the catalytic convert stolen. Tried to contact The owner of the business and after many phone call to try to get a hold him, he texted us that he was on vacation. If we knew that he went on vacation, we would have towed the vehicle home until he was fully available work on it. Ended up towing it to another place to have it worked on. I fully understand the fact that he was busy but the failure to communicate led to more expense to get our truck fix. An easy fix of a distributor ended up to be a window, Catalytic converter and a distributor. Just disappointed in the business, and how the failed communication lead to more expenses on our side. The owner does a great job at his trade, but is very deep in the weeds with other projects. If you guys plan on choosing this shop, make sure he can guarantee to get the car in and out in a timely fashion.

Ryan is the best. Honest, and will do whatever he can to make sure your car has what it needs. His quality of work can’t be overstated. Same guy, same honest expert advice about my cars after 12 years. The thought of taking my Honda’s to anyone else literally makes me cringe. If you’re trying to get ahold of him and it’s not an emergency, have patience. He will get back to you. There are reasons. He is thorough with his work, not to mention a one man show. Worth every penny and then some!

Ryan is currently a one-man show. "Good help is hard to find", he said and given this current environment and culture, I believe him. I called and took my vehicle in after I got off work, which is later than his shop officially closes. He stayed open late for me! Not only did he replace my sway bar end links, but he then showed me some tricks on my truck that I was unaware of. And then he fixed another problem that I'd just mentioned in passing! I had a concerning oil leak, he told me which gasket was bad, sent me a link so that I could purchase it directly. Now, I have him doing an engine overhaul because we are coordinating schedules because he gave me his cell in order to reach him when not at the shop. Time is money...you have time? Work with him and he WILL save you money. No time? Prepare to spend big at the bigger shops. He cut his teeth working at Downtown Honda before LHM bought it, and now he fixes imports and domestics (but prefers imports). All the broke down cars in the back lot are because he is so busy fixing current customer cars that he doesn't have spare time to try and sell the rest.

My alternator died on our way home from a long trip on a Sunday. I called several shops hoping to get someone who could fix it on Monday morning so we could get back on the road and home. Ryan texted me back within 30 minutes and came in on his day off on Monday to fix it and we were home with our car Monday afternoon. He was super confident and communicative. I wish I lived closer because I would always take my car to him. Great experience!

We had a brake light on in our car and we had to add brake fluid to the reservoir. We called Ryan and left a message. He called us back at 7PM on the same Saturday and said bring the car in. At 10PM he called us back again and said the car was done. We went over and picked up the car. It was a loose brake line. He repaired it for no charge. We have been bringing our cars to Ryan for 7 years. He's a stand up guy, great mechanic, and has great prices. I can't recommend him enough.

If he's hard to get ahold of, don't let that stop you. By far the most transparent mechanic I've ever been too! I drive over from Seattle just to go to him. I got a bunch of different quotes for a timing belt change for my Honda from different shops and he was by the far the cheapest. When I brought my car in we discovered that the previous owner (I had just bought this car) had already replaced the timing belt and it didn't need to be done right away, which saved me hundreds. There were some oil leaks though that he found and he clearly showed me where they were coming from. Upon fixing the oil leaks he discovered there was a problem with my V-Tec engine. He fixed all of those leaks, the V-Tec, installed a new lock in my car, installed HID headlights, fixed my Catalytic Converter, changed my O2 sensors and helped me fix my amplifier for around $300. If I would have gone to other shops, this would've cost me more than $1000. He took pictures and showed me what he fixed, which exhibits how transparent he likes to keep his shop. Extremely nice guy, I would recommend him to anyone in Washington State. If he doesn't answer his phone, he will get right back to you, he's worth the wait.

I bought one of those AC recharge bottles to recharge my air conditioning and ended up over filling it. I stopped by Hill's Automotive and the guy was a total jerk, he was rude and wanted to charge $350 and wouldn't even take one second to look at it (i was trying to explain to him the noise the compressor was making). So I called Ryan's Import and he made time for me to come in the same day and he evacuated my car's A/C compressor and refilled it for me while I waited and only charged me $30! I have always had bad experiences with mechanics but Ryan was courteous and did a fantastic job for me! Was a great experience!

August 2011: Honesty, integrity and hard work that is Ryan. It was great having him work on my car. I like the personalized service he and his staff gave me. Definitely a good alternative to a dealership. I will come back! Update August 2013: I do not live in the Spokane area anymore, but was visiting this summer. I needed several minor but important things done to my car, so I took it to Ryan's to make an appointment. Ryan and his staff were busy working on several cars. However, they did everything I needed then and there. The mechanics there understand that superior service combined with there expertise will always keep them in good stead. I have rarely experienced this level of work ethic, knowledge and service. They are good. REALLY GOOD!

As good as it gets! A very competent staff and someone who will work with you on getting your vehicle serviced and back on the road. They lay out the problem and then give you all the options with any and all issues with your car. I highly recommend Ryan's for your automotive repair shop.

Ryan is my car's guardian angel. I only wish I had discovered him years ago. I have a high mileage Honda Accord, and things have been wearing out left and right. I have been to a few mechanics, to include a friend of a friend that works out of his garage (I'm on a budget and cheaper prices). All I am going to say about that, is "you clearly get what you pay for" and I've ended up paying more in the long run and I'm still not done. My first experience with Ryan ended up being an electrical problem, and after going two other places, one of which was a Honda dealer (won't mention which one), he knew what the problem was over the phone before he even looked at it. The Honda dealer charged me $100 just tell me what "was" wrong with it; it ended up they weren't even close. Thank goodness I didn't have them fix what wasn't broke and pay another $200. Car broke down last nite, had it towed in today, told him what it was doing, again he and his mechanic, George, knew what was wrong before they even looked at it. They had the part in-house, opened the hood, fixed it and I was on my way within 30 minutes (on a Saturday no less with no appointment). He is fair, knowledgeable, professional, and is obviously passionate about what he does and values his customers. I wouldn't take my car anywhere else, ever again, even if it was out of the way, and highly recommend him to anyone with a Honda. He more than knows his stuff and will bend over backwards to get you back on the road as quickly as possible with a quality result. Thank you Ryan and George!!!
