Rick’s Automotive and Towing strives to offer more | Business

Modern automobiles are technological wonders. The days of the shade tree mechanic are mostly long gone. It takes state of the art tools and technology to diagnose and repair modern vehicles. Just unlocking your car these days takes having a minicomputer in your hand. Used to be your car keys were just a sliver of metal. Now they’re tiny computers designed specifically for your particular car. You can’t simply run to the local hardware store for a new key for your car or truck.

So, what do you do? You call Rick’s Automotive, of course. Rick’s Automotive has the capabilities to program most keys and fix most key Fob security issues. They can even program new keys when you have misplaced your old set of keys and who hasn’t done that?

“We strive to stay up to date on all the latest technologies, tools and equipment,” said Rick Ruback, owner of Rick’s Automotive. “But we always remember that technology, tools and equipment are just expensive props if you don’t have the properly trained technicians to operate them.”

To that end Rick’s Automotive employees Jose Zuniga, who has an ASE Master Tech certification.

“We also have Charlie, Byrd, Randy and Rick who all have over 10 years with Rick’s and Josh has six years with us,” Ruback said. “We have a great team working here at Rick’s Automotive Inc.”

Rick’s Automotive can also do transmission programing, which refers to the process of electronically configuring and controlling gear shifts in a vehicle’s transmission system. Rick’s can also perform check engine light updates and diagnose computer issues on most vehicles. They have two Hunter alignment machines that can align most vehicles.
