I had a tire blow out and I brought the car to a stop 100 feet from this shop. It was a runflat tire on a performance car, which can be hard to mount and balance. I went into the store and asked Collin if he could put on a runflat tire for me if I had someone bring one over (I had extra tires in my garage) and he said sure. The tire was on within a half hour of it arriving, and he located a sidewall bulge developing on the other front tire and advised me to replace it as soon as possible. The total cost was under $25 and it was handled immediately. A lot of places would have taken advantage of me and my situation, but I was treated with courtesy and care and made to feel important. Having a tire blow out directly in front of a business is an unorthodox way to be introduced to a service place, but based on my positive experience and impression of this business I will be coming back here again when my cars need attention!Service: Auto tire replacement

I have been going to Rich for years now. He has never been anything but honest with me about my vehicle and always takes good care of it. I have an older vehicle, so it obviously needs a lot of repairs. Each time I see Rich, he is able to work on my car quickly and get it back to me working like new.He is always able to make himself available with my schedule and answers all of my questions with lingo I am actually able to understand.I definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a good, honest car mechanic!

At first, I thought I had found a decent garage, as I knew someone who worked there. I had a timing belt replaced at the service interval, and Leo's was roughly half of the dealer price. Fast, friendly, reasonable. I brought a second vehicle in for inspection and a rough idling problem. He (Rich) suggested work that I could do myself which I appreciated and it was indeed the problem. Inspection was fair, again suggestions were made as to areas that would need attention soon. No laundry list of repairs. Then I brought my third vehicle in, and that is where it went waaaaay bad.I brought in a 26 year old car in fair condition given it's age, which I keep up on and maintain as it's a decent back up car. The car needed a rack and pinion assembly which I ordered and had delivered to the garage. A week went by, no call so I called and was told it was being worked on. Another week went by, no call so I called and was told that it was being worked on and Rich was anxious to get off of the phone saying that he would call when done. I asked what stage of repair the car was in and was told that the 5 bolts securing the unit were old and rusty and 2 of 5 were loosened.The end of week 3 came, no call so my wife called (she gets things done) and she was told that Rich didn't want to be held responsible for breaking the mounts as the bolts were frozen. I was also informed by my acquaintance that the car had been sitting in the lot for 2 weeks and that none of the mechanics wanted to work on it. We picked up the car, and never went back.I took the car to the dealer and had the work done in 2 days and it's happily motoring along still. Cold A/C and all! That was 2 years ago.I can't imagine why Rich simply would not have been honest and told me the truth about not wanting to work on my car, stringing me along and letting my car sit and take up space in his lot. I was obviously a good paying customer and paid 8 or $900 on my other vehicles within a few months of each other. One should be very cautious with this garage, as you have to wonder what else aren't they honest about. This shows dishonesty, lack of integrity, and little regard for the customer.

I've been seeing Rich ever since I had my first car (a 99 Grand Am), and I was always visiting his shop with many reoccurring issues. He never once made you feel dumb for not knowing certain tricks of the trade, and sometimes taught you about certain things about your car.I did finally buy a newer car (an 04 Forester XT) and I haven't been there as often, but I recommend his services to anyone I know. He is truly honest about his work, and never attempts to sell you extra items that you don't need. And his prices are fantastic.

He is the only mechanic I go to for all of my major problems with my 1997 Toyota Camry. He is honest, and he works with your budget! I do not have a lot of money, so if there are parts I need, he will list it off for me so I can shop around for bargains as opposed to forcing me to order through him. Not a lot of mechanics do that. I always recommend him to my friends. The only downside is, he has a lot of loyal customers so there can be a long wait for an appointment, but if there is an emergency with your car, he will make time for it.

I've been going to Rich for 25 + years and I would not even think of going anywhere else. He has always gone out of his way to accommodate my schedule as much as he can. Many times his scheduled appointments are backing up, but he finds a way to get to me in a reasonable time. He even stopped by my house on a Saturday evening on his way to camp to check out my vehicle that wouldn't start. He checked to see if my problem was something I could fix myself or he could do a quick fix. Unfortunately it was a problem beyond my ability to fix and needed towed in. I never have to worry about him doing any work that is unnecessary or worry that he will overcharge me. My only problem with Rich is he is talking about retiring and I won't allow this. :) Honestly, there are few garages that have the honesty, skill and work ethic as Rich does. I would give him 10 stars if I could.

Rich Leo's gives quality service at a great price. I was lucky to be reffered there when I moved to Shaler. He services and repairs my 2011 Cadi and my 2013 Sentra.

I feel so comfortable leaving my car at Rick's. He always tells me when I need to take care of something knowing that he will do all he can to make it right. He also tells me when I'm worried about something that is inconsequential and can wait for in the next inspection.

Had an emergency right out front of Rich's garage. He doesn't work on Audi's but kindly helped me out, fabricated the bolt I needed. Highest marks!
