Jiffy Lube: July 10, 2014 3:00 PM…read more What do you do when you see some negative Yelps about a business that you frequent? For me, I ignore them and go with my own experiences, and I've been here a few times. This Jiffy Lube has a number of negative reviews lately, and I have simply not had that experience. Today I showed up and I was the only customer. Three people worked on my car and I enjoyed the full service oil change coming in at just under $45. I was on my way in less than 15 minutes. Mid week seems to be the best time to go, as my usual visits occur on Saturday's, and it always takes longer, the lobby is crowded, and the place can be uncomfortable. The only downside today was that I was interested in changing my cabin air filter. The part at Jiffy Lube cost more than $30 and at the parts house down the street it was half that much. I installed it myself after watching a you-tube video to teach me, and felt great about the savings. So, I'm going with four stars, they'd get five today if they didn't gouge on the filter.

Fairly priced and pretty quick service. They don't hard sell you but also aren't mechanics so don't…read moreexpect them to let you know if something isn't right other than air filter and oil level.

FELLOW WOMEN: BEWARE OF PREDATORY AUTO REPAIR TACTICS AND FRAUD…read more I'm sharing this because I was nearly scammed out of $4,000 simply because I don't have extensive knowledge about vehicle repairs. At the end of June, I took my truck to Big O Tires for a routine A/C tune-up. Shortly afterward, an employee named Chris called and claimed that my A/C compressor clutch had seized and insisted the repair would cost $4,000. He was incredibly pushy, repeatedly pressuring me to approve the repair and making it sound like there was no other option. He made it sound like he was doing me a favor. Fortunately, my fiancée urged me to get a second opinion before authorizing the work. I took my truck to Silver Star Automotive, where James performed his own inspection. James was honest, kind and incredibly knowledgeable. He explained everything in such a way that I actually understood how a/c works. His diagnosis was completely different. The compressor clutch was NOT seized. The actual issue was a small condenser leak, which he repaired and recharged with refrigerant for under $1,000. If I had trusted the first diagnosis, I would have spent more than $3,000 on a repair that another qualified mechanic determined my truck did not need. Afterward, I learned that Chris had previously served time in prison. I can't say whether that had anything to do with my experience, but knowing that, combined with the intense pressure to approve an unnecessary $4,000 repair, left me deeply disturbed. To every woman--and anyone who isn't familiar with cars--please don't let yourself be pressured into expensive repairs. Get a second opinion. Ask questions. Walk away if someone is trying to rush you into spending thousands of dollars. That second opinion saved me over $3,000. Ladies: you can trust James with Silver Star Automotive

Went back today, the counter person "Kevin" showed absolutely no concern, not even a bit of empathy. I politely asked for some sort of compensation, and was abruptly told that nothing could be done. During this process, it interfered with my VA appointment, which I did explain to him, and that drove home the final nail. This store is the closest one to a military installation, and if they show no concern/empathy towards veterans, what treatment are they giving to active duty personnel???

The most recent service involved a transmission oil fluid as well as an oil change. Unfortunately the oil pan leaked when I got it home. They towed it back at their expense, installed a new transmission oil pan and repaired my driveway at their expense. Their value, work and pride of workmanship goes above and beyond all expectations. I can't say enough about their service. Truly a great service and value. At the price it was serviced at, it was a great value! I will keep bringing it back every year. What a great team.

I moved to Carson Valley 12 years ago and asked a neighbor for a recommendation for a good local…read moregarage mechanic. My neighbor highly recommended Garderville Automotive and it's owner, Joe. I've found over 12 years, that Garderville Automotive has been excellent in their insight and ability to repair my personal cars and my work trucks. Last January Joe suggested that at 150,000 my GMC , truck might need a fuel pump replacement before it failed. I opted to be cheap and turned down his suggestion. That next weekend at Squaw Valley( at my kids ski competition), my fuel pump failed. It stranded my two children and me in the Squaw parking lot at 4 PM on a cold Sunday. That failure, by me, to take Joes suggestion, added cost of over $1000 in total to get the vehicle towed and repaired from damage the tow truck company did. It added three days to what would have otherwise been a quick fix. I can not speak more highly about Gardnerville Automotive but to put it in the same retail brackets as my other favorite retailers which include, Apple Computer, Costco, & Virgin America airlines. The only significant criticism I would give is the quality of their restroom could be improved.
