We had a great experience at RPM; the service was professional and timely, and Chuck and Tyler were very friendly and answered all of our questions prior to doing the repair. Highly recommended, and we will definitely return here for future maintenance. Thanks, guys!

I went in to get an oil changed. The price was more than I’m used too. But then the man at the counter explained to me what kind of oil my car takes and why it was the price it was. And I was so RELIEVED. If he didn’t take the time to educate me on my car I probably would have continued to put the wrong oil in it till someone told me different. Shout out to the desk guy for being patient with me cause I don’t know anything about cars.Great experience, very personal &honest, as well as helpful!

I wouldn’t let any other mechanic work on our cars. They are the most hard working, honest mechanics you will find. They will make recommendations without scare tactics and will be honest about what repairs are necessary. They have never tried to oversell us on repairs. For our most recent repair, they recommended getting the car replaced rather than investing in the repair given the age and mileage on our car. We can’t thank them enough for their honesty and candor. Jeff and Chuck have always been honest and trustworthy!! You won’t go wrong with RPM San Marco. Our family has trusted them for years and we will continue to do so!!

Very honest company. They took the time to find the root cause of my issue which was above and beyond what the dealership was going to do and at a fraction of the price. Pat was very friendly and knowledgeable as well at the front desk. No complaints. Would definitely do business with them again.

They were fast and super personable on the phone. We needed a vehicle inspection to make a purchase of a used vehicle and the list of items they found helped us determine the best decision for our family.

I love coming here! The staff are candid and truthful with whats going on and are liking to give recommendations based on the safety and wellbeing of the car but also me and my wallet. They are always welcoming and patient when I ask questions. I even got a warm brownie while I was there earlier today! Im sad to be moving away from Jacksonville because I will have to find another mechanic that is comparable

They were booked up for the day and I was about to make an appointment for the morning and the tech said he had time since he finished early and I was out in 20 more minutes! Excellent service and answered a few questions I had about another vehicle!

This guy was awesome ...On my way to work this morning i ran over some construction debris which lodge a huge bolt and piece of rubber attached to it on my rear tire. I went home and pulled off the tire and thought I would just drop it off and have it repaired during the day while I took my wifes truck to work. I arrived at 7:45 AM and showed it to the guy behind the front desk. He grabbed it and said Ill be right back and went into the shop area. I totally expected to be there for a while and started reading the newspaper. Within 5 minutes, he was standing outside with my tire repaired and he put it in the back of the truck. When I asked him how much he said he just put a plug in and filled it with air again, NO CHARGE. I went home and put my tire on and was still able to be at work at 9 AM. I wish I had got the guys names, because he turned what was a totally negative day up to that point in to a positive experience, and my wife still got to have her car for the day. I will definitely pay it forward, and needless to say RPM Automotive has just earned my business the next time I have car trouble. Thanks again, and I apologize for not getting your name, but you should be able to recognize this guy for a positive customer experience based on the date and time outlined in my review. Well done sir!!

Every year I bring my Porsche in for an oil change. Somehow, since the car is low to the ground, some power steering & brake vacuum assist lines got caught on the lift,all had to be replaced! Needless to say, not an easy, or cheap procedure on a car like mine. RPM stood tall!!! All was repaired.......with a smile to boot! Nick, Chuck & the gang have absolutely restored my faith in humanity!!!

If you want honest quality work and service. Please take your car here. I was told by a 3rd party that I needed work, after calling around, RPM was the most cost efficient place to get this work. However they called to tell me, the work I was told I needed was incorrect and all I needed was a balancing of my tires. Which was 300 cheaper than my assumed work. I was ecstatic and appreciative. Most places wouldve just fixed the higher cost issue and found more things wrong. If I need work again, I pray not soon though lol, RPM will definitely be my first stop!! Thank you.Sincerely Maximus,The silver Nissan Maxima.

Chuck always makes sure me, my family and my company are taken care of. There is nothing too big or too small. He bends over backwards for us. San Marco store IS the BEST!!!!!

Review №33

If you need your wheel bearing replaced or wheel hub assembly then this is the place to go especially if your on a tight schedule and need it done ASAP everyone else I called and asked was charging well over $325+ with pep boys asking for $400. Rpm did a excellent job in the time I needed for only $293 only reason I give 4 stars is because aamco charges $265 but would’ve taken over 24 hours to do so rpm is well worth the extra $30 on top of that if you need 2 replacements it’s only $400 that’s a super deal only and always going to rpm

Review №35

As a female, I used to detest going to an auto shop. Seems that far too many of them are patronizing and wont take you seriously. RPM is the exact opposite of that: straightforward, clean, honest, and professional.I discovered RPM years ago at the recommendation of a neighbor (full disclosure -- he worked for this company at the time). Now, this is the ONLY mechanic we will use. Chuck and his team are like family now, and they dont ever try to up-sell things you dont need or rip you off.Oh yeah... I also LOVE that they support their community schools, including Hendricks Avenue Elementary!

Review №36

I am very disappointed with the recent service I received from RPM on Emerson. I will not use their services again and I will not recommend them. I had an issue that they said needed extensive labor. They did not even know if doing all of the labor would have fixed the issue. I told them “no thank you” and took the car to another mechanic. He saw the problem immediately (without all of the recommended labor from RPM) and fixed it without charging me. They recommended service and work that was ridiculously expensive and unnecessary. For the most part, the front desk staff is consistently warm and friendly. However, after this experience, I have lost all confidence in the belief that this business has treating customers fairly and honestly as their top priority.

RPM San Marco (and Philips Hwy) have taken care of our cars for almost 20 years. Theyve given us good advice, kept 5-6 old cars running and safe for our family.

Review №41

I went to get an alignment done & they stated they couldnt because of too much rust or whatnot lol. Next week later my right tie rod comes loose on the Mathews bridge. Come to find out there was a bolt loosen but never tighten. Ive never had one issue prior to that visit. Buyer beware of this over priced shop. And if you disregard my warning..at least stay away from the mechanic with the duck dynasty beard!

Review №42

Ironically ran out of gas in front of this branch and asked for help; help pushing the truck, granted up hill, but from blocking the drive way, a gas container to go grab gas myself, anything. The guy in the office said maybe to wait for traffic to clear and drift back into the street, and after returning to my truck one of the mechanics approached me and stated You got some cash? Ill give you a ride to get gas for a few bucks.Ill wait for road side service, thanks for nothing. This would never have happened at the Ortega branch with chip and his gentlemen! I suggest a training seminar in customer service for this crew.

Review №49

I went in to have a high performance clutch installed and have them weld a piece of my exhaust. Upon picking up my car, my throw out bearing instanlty went out and they never welded the piece I needed done. The manager explained to me that he would not warranty a part they did not order. I explained to him the part was brand new and their mechanics obviously f****d up. He told me to bring it back and they would weld the piece together and fix the throw out bearing (I assumed for a discounted price since I felt their service was not satisfactory, considering my car was exactly in the same position as when I brought it in $600 earlier). A short time later, he called to tell me the bill was going to be $890. He explained that was for the labor. After raising hell, I ended up spening almost $1500 for them to correctly install a clutch (plus the money for the part) and have them weld something they didnt do in the first place. I was also recommended to RPM due to them having a GT Mustang expert. They are a RIP off and I would not recommend them to anyone!
