RAY A MOTIVE

Ray A Motive is an auto, truck and RV repair shop based in Bellflower, California. You bring the RV to its shop on Artesia Boulevard, and it has served the Bellflower, Lakewood, Cerritos, Downey, Norwalk, Long Beach and Paramount areas since 1986.

On the RV side, it works on complete powertrain and chassis systems, engines and transmissions, fuel injection, electrical repairs, cooling systems, brakes, air conditioning, generators, engine starting and house battery replacement, and tire replacement. It is also a Star Smog Station, so it handles RV smog testing and repair, which matters if your motorhome is due and you would rather not hunt down a separate test-only station.

No trip fee, hourly rate or diagnostic fee is published, so ask about those when you call. It does publish a coupon: $25 off repairs totaling $150 or more in labor. Hours are Monday through Friday, 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM.

Ray A Motive is an ASE Certified Shop and an ACDelco Repair Center, and it backs its work with a 2 year, 24,000 mile warranty, so a repair that fails short of that window is covered rather than a new bill. It has been doing this work since 1986, which is a long run for a shop in one location. Google rates it 4.6 stars from 315 reviews.

This is a good fit for an owner in the southeast Los Angeles area who needs RV smog testing done alongside a mechanical repair, and who wants a shop with a published warranty rather than a mobile tech working out of a driveway.
