Ricks Japanese Car Care - Thousand Oaks (CA)

5 /5 Xandria Quichocho: I moved here a year ago and needed my brakes done. I had no knowledge of the area and found Rick’s online and I haven’t gone anywhere else since. I’ve even had random Lyft drivers in town talk about how they’ve been going to Rick’s for years. They’re very honest and describe their reasoning behind every suggested repair and never force you to do anything. The work is fast, the prices are good, and they’ve even recommended me to other trustworthy places to do the things they can’t. As long as I’m in TO my car goes to Rick’s!

5 /5 Keith: Went to another shop that wanted to throw tons of parts at the car (about $2k) when I knew it was just a belt tensioner. Rick’s confirmed my diagnosis and replaced just that part. Noise is now gone and Rick’s has a new customer for life!! From someone who has been in the automotive repair business for a long time, this was outstanding work and customer service from them!

5 /5 Leslie Stone: Took my Honda Civic in for servicing - Ricks Japanese Car Care was amazing - honest, on time, friendly, explained everything carefully to me, and very affordable. Cannot recommend them highly enough!

5 /5 Fred Kronenberg: Finding a trustworthy auto repair shop has always been a challenge—something I learned firsthand growing up in the Bronx as a young driver. Back then, it felt like a gamble every time I needed car repairs. Now, as I approach my mid-70s after more than 50 years on the road, I can’t tell you how comforting it is to have a place like Rick’s Japanese Car Care. Rick and his team are the real deal—honest, knowledgeable, and truly caring. They don’t just fix cars; they give sound advice and treat customers with integrity. My wife and I have been bringing our cars here for years, and we wouldn’t go anywhere else. Honestly, I just hope I outlive my car—but if not, I’m hoping I go before Rick retires so I’ll never have to search for another repair shop! If you want top-notch service from people you can trust, Rick’s Japanese Car Care is the place to go.

5 /5 Tanner Magallanes: The best Japanese car care shop in town! Rick the owner and his team are very knowledgeable and thorough and if I ever have issues with my car I always take them here first! Thanks guys for always taking care of me and being such a great shop!
