Shingle Springs' Trusted Auto Shop

Hey there — glad
you stopped by.

Your car deserves more than a quick fix. At Rick's Auto Repair, we treat every vehicle like it's our own — with honest diagnostics, fair prices, and the kind of care that keeps you rolling safely down the Gold Country roads.

What We Do

Services built around
your ride.

From routine maintenance to complex repairs, we've got the tools, the expertise, and the patience to get it right the first time.

Engine Diagnostics

Check engine light on? We'll read the codes, pinpoint the problem, and explain exactly what needs fixing — no guesswork, no upselling.

Brake Service

Squeaky? Pulsing? We'll inspect, repair, or replace your brakes and get you stopping with confidence — because that's non-negotiable.

Oil Changes

Quick, clean, and done right. We use quality oil and filters, and we'll top off your fluids while we're at it — because prevention is cheaper than repair.

Suspension & Steering

Bumpy roads in Gold Country? We'll sort out your shocks, struts, and alignment so your ride handles smoothly and your tires last longer.

Electrical Systems

Battery dead? Lights flickering? We trace electrical gremlins and fix them for good — not just throw parts at the problem.

Pre-Purchase Inspections

Buying a used car? Bring it to us first. We'll give you an honest, thorough inspection report so you know exactly what you're getting into.

About Us

We're not a chain.
We're your neighbors.

Rick's Auto Repair has been serving Shingle Springs and the surrounding Gold Country communities for over two decades. We started as a one-bay shop with a toolbox and a promise: treat every customer the way we'd want to be treated.

That promise hasn't changed. When you pull into our lot on Sunset Lane, you're not a ticket number — you're someone's neighbor, someone's friend. We'll tell you what your car actually needs, not what the upsell sheet says. And if something doesn't need replacing yet, we'll be the one to tell you that, too.

We work on most makes and models — domestic and import — and we take pride in doing the job right the first time. That's how we've kept the same families coming back for over 20 years.
