Our Services include:

Full-Service Automotive Care: At Rick & Ken’s, we provide complete care for both foreign and domestic vehicles, handling everything from routine maintenance to complex diagnostics and full mechanical rebuilds. With modern tools and a commitment to honest, thorough communication, we make sure your car leaves safer, smoother, and ready for the road ahead.
Charging, Starting & Drive Belts: Your vehicle’s reliability depends on a healthy charging system and well-maintained belts and hoses. We test alternators and batteries, inspect and replace serpentine and timing belts, and ensure coolant and vacuum hoses are free of cracks, leaks, or wear. This preventative attention keeps your engine protected and greatly reduces the chance of unexpected breakdowns.
Brake System Service: We restore confident stopping power by diagnosing brake noises, vibrations, and performance issues, then matching the right pads and rotors for smooth, quiet, and reliable braking. Whether your vehicle needs fresh friction material, rotor resurfacing or replacement, or hydraulic attention, we ensure your brakes respond the way they should in every driving situation.
Engine Performance & Rebuilds: When your engine isn’t running like it should, we use advanced diagnostics to find the root cause and resolve it properly. Our tune-ups refresh ignition and fuel components for smoother acceleration and better mileage, while our engine repair and rebuild services address timing components, gaskets, and internal wear to restore long-term power and reliability.
Heating & A/C Comfort: We keep your cabin comfortable in every season with complete heating and air conditioning service. From refrigerant leaks and compressor issues to heater core and thermostat concerns, we make sure your system cools quickly, heats evenly, and defogs efficiently so you stay comfortable no matter the weather.
Suspension & Ride Control: When your ride feels rough, bouncy, or noisy, our suspension service brings back smooth handling and stability. We replace worn shocks and struts and repair essential suspension components to reduce clunks, improve steering response, and extend tire life, giving you a controlled and confident driving experience.
Tires & Rotations: Proper tire care improves safety, fuel efficiency, and overall vehicle performance. We mount, rotate, and balance tires while inspecting wear patterns and tread depth to catch issues early. With correct balance and rotation, your tires last longer and your vehicle maintains better traction and stability in all conditions.
Oil & Filter Service: Routine oil and filter changes keep your engine running cooler and cleaner, protecting internal parts from excessive heat and wear. We use the correct oil for your vehicle and provide a quick visual check of essential components to help prevent small concerns from turning into major problems.
Transmission Care: We help your transmission shift smoothly and reliably through careful fluid maintenance, diagnostic testing, seal repair, and complete transmission service when needed. Whether you need a fluid exchange or more in-depth repair, our goal is to preserve your transmission’s performance and extend its lifespan.
General Repair for All Makes & Models: From minor issues to major repairs, we work on all makes and models with quality parts and skilled workmanship. Whether it’s electrical, cooling, fuel, or exhaust concerns, we provide clear explanations, accurate estimates, and dependable repairs tailored to your vehicle and driving habits.
Roadside Support: When unexpected trouble leaves you stranded, we coordinate prompt towing directly to our shop, making the process as simple and stress-free as possible. From pickup to repair, we keep you informed and get your vehicle back on the road as quickly as we can.

I can’t say enough good things about my experience here! They truly went above and beyond and were incredibly thorough throughout the entire process. They even took the time to show me how to properly check my oil and explain how important it is to prevent future issues, which I really appreciated. I left feeling like they genuinely cared about both my car and making sure I understood how to better take care of it moving forward. On top of the amazing service, their prices were great. It’s hard to find a shop you feel you can truly trust, and I would absolutely recommend them!

On 1/31/2026 Rebecca Huggins had this to say:
On 1/28/26 my truck started acting up and not running right and so I was stopped on I-88W in Illinois near Davenport Iowa. I called my mechanic for some help...meanwhile I'm 290 miles away from home. He got names for me to call. I ended up calling Rick &Ken's. These guys were great. They got my truck in fast (thank you for that)!! They diagnosed the problem, explained what was going on. Was asked if I wanted the work done, I said absolutely. The part came and off they went fixing her up. When done took the truck for a test drive and felt good about how she ran. The owner asked that I call him when I made it home. I did just that!! Thank you for your help on such short notice. I really appreciate what you did. I highly recommend Rick & Ken's!
