Fuel Injection Service/Repair
Fuel injection is a system for admitting fuel into an engine. Since 1990, fuel injectors have completely replaced carburetors as the primary means of getting gasoline into the engine. A fuel injector atomizes the fuel by forcibly pumping it through a small nozzle (under high pressure). Failure of the fuel injection system means poor performance and ultimately destroys the engine. Make sure your vehicle's fuel injection system is maintained properly. For all your fuel injection maintenance and replacement needs, call 805-937-6033 or visit Rick's Car Care today.

Transmission and Drivetrain

Transmission Service
A four-wheel (4x4) drive vehicle has differential gears, both front and rear axles, and a transfer case attached to the transmission. Four-wheel drive vehicles demand maintenance on the transfer case, front differentials, rear differentials, and transmission fluids. Visit us on 147 W Clark for service on your four-wheel drive transmission services.
Transmission Repair
From manual to automatic transmission repair, Rick's Car Care in Orcutt, CA 93455 knows how to fix the problem. Our knowledgeable auto experts will diagnose the situation and help you make a decision. Leave the dirty work to us!
Transmission Fluid Service
Although most manufacturers recommend a transmission flush every 30,000 miles or every two years, some symptoms may indicate that you need a transmission flush sooner. Some of the symptoms that indicate that your car needs a transmission flush sooner are: transmission grinding or strange noises, problems shifting gears, slipping gears, surging of the car, and delay in vehicle movement. Flushing the used fluid from the transmission washes away tiny particles of dirt, clutch material, and metal shavings. For all your transmission flush needs, call 805-937-6033 or visit Rick's Car Care today - we are transmission experts.
Transmission Replacement
In motor vehicles, the transmission usually refers to the gear box, which uses gears and gear trains to transmit speed and torque from a rotating power source to another device. You can have your car's transmission replaced with a new, rebuilt, remanufactured, repaired or used transmission. For more information contact Rick's Car Care in Orcutt, CA. Our experienced service technicians can help you make the best decision for your vehicle and your wallet.
Clutch Service/Repair
There are clutches in both automatic and manual transmission cars, and different types of clutches. When shifting gears, the clutch engages and disengages from the flywheel and transfers the torque through the transmission. Clutches should help your vehicle start and shift gears smoothly. The clutch in your car receives a lot of wear and can eventually wear out. If your clutch begins slipping irregularly or is making noises that are raising suspicion, contact Rick's Car Care to see if clutch replacement is necessary.
Differential Service/Repair
Axle Repair

Steering and Suspension

Suspension Service/Repair
Many newer cars are lubed-for-life, some still require this service. Replacement steering and suspension components require periodic lubrication.
Steering Service/Repair
Wheel alignment (or simply alignment) is standard car maintenance that involves adjusting the angles of the wheels so that they are set to the manufacturer's specifications. The main purpose is to let the suspension and the steering systems operate at their desired angles - this reduces tire wear. Alignment is a complicated process and not all mechanics get it right. To have experts handle your car's alignment, visit Rick's Car Care.
Steering Fluid Service
Power steering fluid is the hydraulic fluid that transmits the power in a steering wheel. Servicing the power steering involves flushing out the old power steering fluid and adding fresh fluid. A power steering flush will definitely help prolong the life of the power steering components. Failure to have periodic power steering flushes results in important parts like the power steering pump, the seals, power steering rack, and the O-rings wearing out. To have a comprehensive power steering flush, call 805-937-6033 or visit Rick's Car Care today.

Heating and Cooling

Air Conditioning Service/Repair
RICK'S CAR CARE > REPAIR SERVICES > AC REPAIR If your car's air conditioning system is not keeping you cool don't let the hot weather make you miserable. Get back to cruising in comfort. Bring your car or truck by Rick's Car Care in Orcutt and we'll get your AC working again. Call now at 805-937-6033 or stop by the shop at 147 W Clark, Orcutt, CA, 93455
Radiator Service/Repair
Radiator Flush
A radiator is the part of your vehicle that keeps the engine cool and protects it from excessive heating. To be cool, the radiator needs to remain clean - always. With time, sludge, rust and other solid deposits build up inside your car's radiator. These make the cooling system become clogged and less effective. This in effect hurts your vehicle's performance. A regular radiator flush is enough to keep the system in shape. For this reason, make radiator flushing a part of your routine car maintenance schedule. For all your radiator flush needs, call 805-937-6033 or visit Rick's Car Care today.
Air Filter Replacement
Air Conditioning Recharge
Freon gas becomes a liquid when pressurized inside your car's A/C system but returns to its gaseous state as it leaks out. Many drivers in Orcutt are completely unaware that they are losing freon until the day when they turn on the car's AC and find only warm air blows out. Call 805-937-6033 and ask any of our auto repair specialists about recharging your car's AC. Stop by our store at 147 W Clark and we will show you the best AC recharging options for your car.

Tire Service

Brake Service
Brake Fluid Service
Brake fluid will absorb water from the air over time, causing the brake system to become less effective and the fluid to become corrosive, possibly damaging the system. It is important to perform a brake fluid flush regularly to ensure that your vehicle is using fresh fluid. Talk to our technicians at Rick's Car Care about when it's time for a brake fluid flush.
