“Honest mechanics are hard to find. This is one of them. Great people. Competitive rates. Been using them for about 3 years now. They have handled both small and large jobs for me. Definitely recommend.”
“Wonderful experience with Blanchard's. I took my Navigator to several body shops for an out of pocket estimate and Jake blew them all out of the water. I have taken a previous vehicle here before and had a great experience so I knew my vehicle would be in good hands. Jake and his team completed the repairs in the estimated time frame and came in under the quoted estimate. I did have to wait a few weeks to get the vehicle in, but it was completely worth it. My Navi looks good as new! Thanks guys!”
“They stand behind their work. We bought a salvage vehicle from them in 2019 which they restored to brand new looking. One of the things they had to do was replace the front bumper. The bumper came pre-primed and the primer failed. It is now 2024. They replaced the bumper and repainted it and it cost us nothing. This is the 6th salvage vehicle we have bought from them and they have stood behind everyone of them.”
“I felt good getting work done here in my older Sonata. They were recommended by my mechanic for work he couldn't get it to. Kenny runs an honest place and they treated me right. They didn't try to push unneeded work; just fixed a couple clamps and realigned the exhaust. I felt good about the work they did and will be back! Recommended”
“I cannot recommend this auto service enough. We were from out of town 3 hours away and the truck broke down. We called everywhere in the area who refused to look at the truck for weeks. Without hesitation he told us to get it towed in and he would figure it out today for us. He got us fixed up and on the road within a hour. Honest and hard workers. This is the place to go if you have any issues with your vehicles.”
“My car was experiencing engine problems
and my dealership was booked out for over a month so I called Ryder and talked to Tim. He said he was booked out for about 3 weeks, however, he said I could drop off my car and he’d try to fit me in if he had time between clients. Lo and behold he was able to get to (and fix) my car the VERY NEXT DAY! He was also able to explain everything to me in an easy to understand manner. I cannot recommend Ryder’s enough!”
“Rebecca and Matt were super helpful when I came in not knowing what piece of my car was dragging underneath. They were able to immediately get my car in, diagnosed it and fixed it within 15 minutes. I am extremely thankful as I am from out of town and was worried about my 2 hour drive home! Thank you so very much!”

“Amazing, fast, reliable service. We've been taking our vehicles here for years, both personal and company. They're always prompt and don't try to cheat you out on anything unnecessary by adding frivolous "needed maintenance" like some mechanics do.”
“Bill and team are the best. When my car started acting really bad they were able to fit me in and quickly fit me in to diagnose the problem and fixed it so I was able to use the car later that day. They also were able to check some other concerns I had as well. They really seem to to be experts, can be trusted to tell you when something needs to be fixed or not, and charge fair prices. I strongly recommend them.”

“I am updating my review because we had an extraordinary experience. Morgan, one of the young ladies who works there, was absolutely amazing. She took care of us with exceptional customer service, and her communication was above board.
If you want to support a local business, want solid work and dont want to be gouged on prices, go to R&T.”
“I've been getting my oil changed here since 2021 and have always had a great experience, service is quick and employees are friendly -- they even remember who I am now and I am embarrassed to say that I don't know any of their names. Price is fair and I have never had a long wait.”
“I had to find a repair shop because where I was taking my cars for20 years retired. I thankfully found Portage Auto repair- they are honest- efficient , very knowledgeable and affordable. I recommend this place to have car repairs done. This is where I will bring my cars from now on.”
“I had my 2001 Subaru Outback serviced here after an accident which broke right front suspension components which left it not save to drive. when it was all finished it drove like it was brand new and everything looked great.”
“Went in with coolant issues. Dave took care of me fast and decently priced. Ended up taking another car a day later to repair tie rods. Once again took good care of me and fixed it up right.definitely an old school mechanic with honesty. What others wanted to charge me $1,000 he only charged half the cost. Definitely check this place out for repairs.”
“I want to give a huge shout-out to Sam at the shop! I've been taking my car here for the past couple years and he has provided nothing but the best, most comprehensive, and punctual service. Highly recommend this place!”
“This is my second trip here, so far so amaaaaazing!!! I had to patch a tire my first time. The second included an oil change. So quick, so friendly, no pressure! They also fixed a dent and my liner at no charge. I can't recommend this store enough!! They just saved me from dropping my car off for a 1 1/2 weeks and getting a rental. Insane!! Give them a try!!!!”
