About Riverton

Riverton has about 44,000 residents and maintains a distinct small-town feel even as surrounding communities have grown rapidly. The city's western edge borders the Jordan River, and its Wasatch Mountain views to the east are among the best in the valley. Riverton has grown significantly since 2000 and continues to develop its commercial and civic infrastructure while preserving the agricultural character of its founding community.

Repair and Maintenance for Riverton Drivers

Tell us how you use your vehicle and what you have noticed. Here are some repairs and maintenance needs we can discuss.

Brake Service: Riverton's distance from most workplaces means 25+ mile commutes daily. High annual mileage combined with Bangerter and I-15 commuting wears brakes faster than closer-in suburbs.
Clutch Repair: Riverton commuters put heavy annual miles on manual transmission clutches. Combined with grades and traffic, Riverton clutches may need replacement earlier than average.
Cooling System Service: Long commutes and summer heat stress Riverton vehicles. Cooling system issues are one of the more common repairs we see from Riverton customers.
Timing Belt/Chain Service: High-mileage Riverton vehicles benefit from staying ahead of timing belt and chain service intervals. Prevention is vastly cheaper than engine replacement.

“Scott has always preferred good work on my vehicles. I had his shop replace the driveline on my 2014 VW Touareg — not an easy job. The cost was cheaper than another shop. They did a great job. I had them rebuild the alternator because it was too cold for me to do it. The cost was better than I thought. I am very pleased with their work. Scott has always given me good solid advice.”

“Honest and smart mechanic. Scott will explain what needs to be done. He replaced my water pump and my car is working perfectly! This was after taking it to 2 shops previous to Scott's. He will be my first option from now on. Saved me a ton of money, was honest in his assessment, and fast! 100% recommend!”
