Testimonials

"I used Randy's Automotive service for a diagnosis and 2nd opinion. I found Randy's Automotive service to be reliable and thorough. I received a quick response with an accurate and detailed diagnosis. Randy provided immediate and full follow-through with great phone and email support." - Audrey


"I want to thank you for your help on the problem I had with the Nissan Pathfinder. Your personal attention was above and beyond. I still can't believe you actually took a phone call on Thanksgiving Day and spent 30 minutes discussing the nature of the problem and the correct way to diagnose the answer. It took me about a month to get the engine running again (didn't have much free time). During that time I corresponded with 5 different online mechanics. Three of them I paid for advice. Only two of you actually came up with the right solution and course of action. Only one of you actually called me, which was you. Your help was a tremendous asset in helping me track down the problem and move forward towards a final resolution. Thank You," - KK


"Just a note of thanks for your help solving my Cadillac STS problem. Your being able to get the information I needed to correct my ignition problem sure saved me a lot of time, and your calling me back to make sure I got it fixed convinced me I made the right choice on where to get help." - Dick


"I called the mechanic and gave him your advice on the 4Runner. He said the truck started and kept running, so it appears that you were right on the money. Thank you very much for the prompt response and the great service you provide. I will certainly pass your name along to anyone who is in need of a trouble shooter. Thanks again (and again)" - Craig


"I contacted you about a vibration in my steering wheel a few months back. You suggested that it might be a separated belt in my tire and then you called back a few days later to check in. I didn't return your call at the time because I'm a student and was smack in the middle of final exams so I hadn't had a chance to check into the tire yet. Anyway, it's odd that you're e-mailing me just now because I finally got around to checking into the tire just two days ago and apparently I do have a separated belt (at first I didn't feel it but then the guy at the tire shop showed me the spot and I could definitely feel the difference). Anyway, thanks a bunch for the help!" - Jeremy


"A note to let you know how much your quick and accurate service was appreciated. After struggling for a week and replacing several parts on my 1999 Chevrolet I found your web site and ordered your service. Within hours I received a very detailed e-mail that solved the problem immediately. If I had found you earlier I would have saved several hundred dollars and much time. You are now in my favorite list and I am recommending you to anyone that needs advice in getting their car fixed. Thanks Regards" - Doug


"Its been a couple of weeks now and the car has been running great. Your step by step trouble shooting made the difference. You were able to relate information on my level, and keep me from a lot of unneeded guessing. Thanks for all you help. " - Dave


"My husband Howard called you last Friday I think (the end of July) regarding his 86 Pontiac Firebird. If you recall, he told you that after he changed the fuel filter the car would start but sputter when accelerating, and then a few days later the car would start but die immediately. You told him it was definately a fuel problem and most likely the pump. He did the necessary steps you told him to do and although he got good fuel flow, the fuel pressure only read about 14-15 psi. So, over the weekend he started working on the car to change the pump and finally last night got it back together. IT RUNS GREAT!!!! He didn't take it out on the road yet cause it was late, but it started up the second time and kept on running with no sputtering on acceleration. The first start it started and died and my husband and I were like, "I can't believe this" but I guess the pump didn't have a chance to pump all the fuel yet because the second time it started and ran. THANK YOU!!!! My husband was replacing parts left and right that didn't even need replacing with nothing but frustration as an end result. We both cannot thank you enough for your advice and will definately contact you in the future if he needs help with anything else. By the way, he mentioned that taking out the fuel tank to change the pump was not an easy job. Alot of steps. So, he's pretty proud of himself being that he's not a mechanic and has never changed anything on a car besides the basics for a tune-up and exhaust. Thank you again." - Justyna


"Thank you for your follow-up email. The anti-freeze has stopped leaking and the car definitely has more power. Today I drove on one of the famous California freeways and the car easily reached the 65 mph speed limit. As I've said before, it made a difference talking to you about repairing my car. I will keep your email and will pass along your information. Thank you." - Mary
