Went in for an oil leak issue and they were not able to only identify where it was, but also showed me what the issue was. Didn't try and upsell but recommended possible repairs as well as gave straight answers - highly recommend

They are very informative and clear on what the issues are. They don’t try to upsell you on repairs that aren’t needed yet but inform you about items showing wear to keep an eye on.

This is my second vehicle I've brought to get serviced at this business. They check over the vehicle each time and make recommendations for repairs so I know what my vehicle needs. I trust this business and they do excellent work.

My Volkswagen GTI was having some electrical and sensor issues. I replaced various things myself and didn’t solve anything. The car has various modifications and they had a hard time figuring out the issue. A few days later they called me back to tell me they had it running perfect. They also discounted me over $500 because they felt they should have had the issue corrected faster. These guys are unreal. 11/10 job by Chris and his team. They could not be any more honest with what’s going on with your car. Give you the service you asked for, recommend certain other things and then take care of all of it. Don’t second guess it, book your car in with these folks. Amazing job!

River City Motors provided excellent customer service. They were able to help me resolve an issue that I’ve been having for some time. They tracked down the part I needed and installed it in a timely manner. I’m very pleased with how my car looks/drives.

My VW Tiguan just stopped running I called my extended warranty and they sent me to a place in edmonton of course nothing was covered and it turned out the place they sent me to could not figure out the problem and and did not have the tools. So we had to tow it back homeMy son then said why don’t you call River City in edmonton they were the only ones I let work on my Audi. So i called River City told them the problem. They said bring it in we will figure out the problem. We towed it down to River City Chris came out and helped us unload it. It turned out after they did two days of diagnostics and then ruling out all kinds of things I had bought bad gas at Costco which did all kinds of damage to my car. They kept me informed all the while telling me what it was and wasn’t kept me informed every step of the way as to what the cost would be and worked hard so I would have it for the long weekend as I’d been without my car a long time at the first repair place.Needless to say I was overjoyed with the way I was treated they were so polite and did not treat me like a dumb female. My son was impressed with them and now that will be the only place I take my car. And I must add the price was extremely great for the amount of work they did. I’m thoroughly grateful to Chris David and Andy. Thank you so much guys you are great and I will certainly be recommending River City to all my friends and family. Thanks a bunch guysTerry🙏🙏👍

Rivercity Motors have done nothing but exceed my expectations and we're fair and informative at every turn. they first had saved me thousands of dollars on a pre-purchase inspection then when I brought in the next car did amazing work and it's like a different vehicle. I mostly work on my own cars but River city has restored my faith in repair shops if I do not have time or equipment they are the guys i trust to work on my car. They do it right and it's worth every penny.They also sell parts and it is never the wrong part or cheap quality parts.Thanks guys!!!
