Never had a bad experience here despite what others say. Seems like other people complain about dave, his attitude 100% depends on you.

BEWARE these guys will give you a false price, or lie about experience to get you in, unable to do the work or increasing the bill..very unethical. But hey .Dave told me he has insurance, employees and MY social security so I was lucky I only got charged $75 to be informed their mechanic, despite Dave telling me they could adjust my brake controller, the mechanic had NO IDEA how to adjust th controller. " Sorry mam, we aren't familiar with the controller, that'll be $75". And " btw, you're lucky we aren't charging for an hour $150" Bottom line. These guys will lie about cost, experience to clip you Pick a legit honest business because this thief isn't in your best interest. Lol..I'm still blown away with Dave's comment I pay your social security...NOPE..I paid my SS for longer than you've been alive. What a pompous asshole read more

Driving back from Idaho Falls to Reno when the u joint came apart 5 miles east of the small town. This shop was highly recommended by folks in community and they do live up to that. Quality service, great communication and super accommodating. The staff is awesome. There's no taxis or Uber in town and they helped make it easy. Thanks for the fast turnaround and getting us back on the road. From one family business to another. 10/10 recommend. read more

Dave Schirrick - Mobile Mechanic Services & Towing's newest addition. - Trailer Repair Near Me - Winnemucca, Nevada

See all

If I could leave 0 stars I would. This man is rude beyond belief and clearly hates Californians. Nevada has blue handles at the pumps for clean gas, California has blue handles for DEF, who knew, until now, they were not the same. We accidentally put the clean gas in the DEF tank, rendering our vehicle inoperable until the tank is emptied, flushed, dried, and refilled, which could also mean removal of the tank. His first comment, was well you should have read the info on the pump. Second comment, well if you weren't for California creating this DEF system, this wouldn't be a problem. Third comment, I don't need or want your business, I'm very busy and I don't want to do it. Don't give this man your business, he's not worthy. Instead, call One Chance Mechanic! This man was fantastic. He will be getting a fabulous review! read more

Excellent service--called me back with helpful ideas before I had my van towed to them. Melissa & Jasmine in the front office were knowledgeable and friendly. Matt, the mechanic really knew his trade and did a very thorough job. Highly recommend-great people and skill. read more

Don't call this guy if you are from California. We had a California number from 20+yrs ago that we just kept our number for the family. Then we relocated to Reno and have been there for over 6 yrs. Doesn't matter. This guy insulted my husband on the phone just due to his phone number and then when we said we were from Reno he said it was the same as California. I guess this guy has a lot of money and doesn't need the work. We had a simple job that needed done because my husband is disabled and can't do it himself. I will never recommend this guy to anyone. Never been this insulted in my life. Terrible customer service and who even knows if he is any good at what he does because we will never know. read more

I developed multiple problems on my cross country trip out side of Winnemucca, NV. Thinking I would be down for days getting my RV (converted International truck) fixed, I checked Yelp to see were I could go. It rated this place as one of the better ones. I stoped in as they were opening (7am) and they assigned a repair technician immediately to my repairs. He was able to diagnose all the problems in short order and fix two of the three in no time. It would have been all three, but in the middle of no where Nevada, sometime parts are not readily available. Even when the owner personally drives around to the suppliers to verify that the parts are the correct ones, but to no luck. However, they did identify the correct part and made arrangements for a next day arrival of it. I should be back on the road with little more the the loss of one day on my trip. I would highly recommend this shop for their knowledge base, expertise, and timely service. As a side note, they have an eclectic collection of old farm tractors around the property, Oliver, Minneapolis Moline, IH, and John Deere's to look at, and a few for sale. Very happy I stopped at Dave's shop. The GPS location is off for this shop. It is a half mile further out of town then then it's location is stated. read more

Where to start? I have been having trouble with my Ram 3500 and its fuel pump. I have tried 4 or 5 shops in 4 states. Trying to get them to drop the fuel tank and replace the fuel pump inside the 40 gallon fuel tank. Each one has had an excuse to not do the extremely hard job. Finally I was trying to get back to Idaho from California and the truck stopped in Winnemucca. I was told to call Dave Schirrick if anyone would stop everything to help a traveler it was them. I called Jennifer at 7am she is willing to help and a asset to her company. She explained how to proceed and I did. At about 1pm Jesse started working on my truck. I could here the banging the pump was frozen in the tank. Jesse kept me informed the whole time he was working. The only problem with my experience was an employer spoke quit rudely to me I wont mention his name. I would recommend these folks to every one. Back on the road the same day. read more

We had the pleasure working with Dave and his company a few times now. Our trucking company frequently goes through Nevada and we've need roadside service a few times. Dave & Co are extremely reliable and knowledgeable. Road service is never cost effective, but we feel that we have been treated fairly and helped get us back up and running. Thanks for the helping hand, we appreciate it. Crescent Express LLC read more

Had a few cold-weather starting issues with the RV in Wells NV which ended up causing the starter to go out in Winnemucca. Guess were staying in town for the next few days. Could have been worse and gotten stuck in Wyoming. As usual I asked a few locals for a good mechanic referral and two different people both highly recommended Dave Shirrick. Being Sunday I wasn't expecting much but called Dave who had a few items on his plate for the morning but explained he could come out that afternoon. Per his word he arrived when he said he would and quickly began working on the issue at hand, also providing a lift to the local auto supply outlets to find a replacement. Unfortunately one had to be ordered so it would be the next afternoon before the part was in. Dave agreed to work us in the next day despite having a full plate and he again returned the next afternoon and quickly had us on the road again. He also shared important details about our RV that other mechanics we have asked about in the past had no clue. Felt very comfortable with Dave's work, his up front rate and his experience. He knows what he is talking about. Save the tow fee and call Dave Shirrick if you ever need good honest mechanic services in Winnemucca. read more

If your RV has to break down, Winnemmucca NV is the best place for it to happen. Dave was super nice and clearly explained to us what happened and the repairs he made. He patched us up and got us safely back to our home 12 hours away. read more

After being stranded in Winnemucca, Nevada with my RV plus horse trailer and horses on my way to California, Dave Shirrick offered to help me out. $2,600 for a tune up and check up and assurances that all was well, I set out again for California. 300 miles down the road my RV failed again. Same issues. Horses got towed and I limped into Ridgecrest. The mechanic here pulled the spark plugs and ignition coils. The spark plugs were old and discolored, one ignition coil had a broken connector. I called Dave Shirrick to explain and I was verbally abused where he insulted all RV owners, all Californians, and his mechanic through in insulting all women in general. Dave Shirrick continued making up wild accusations about me concluding saying that they had replaced my spark plugs and my engine had ruined the spark plugs in 300 miles. He admitted that his mechanic could have broken the ignition coil. No apology or settlement was offered. At $150/ hour, with inflated hours, (I know because I was in my RV while the mechanic worked and took breaks)... It's a lot for a tune up with damaged spark plugs and broken ignition coil connector. I am very lucky that my horses and I arrived in Ridgecrest traumatized but unhurt. Dave Shirrick and his mechanic appear to not appreciate the great danger they put me and my horses in. read more

***** DO NOT TAKE YOUR VEHICLE TO DAVE SCHIRRICK***** He will give you a quote for one price then charge you a whole lot more. In my case, Dave and his mechanics assessed the damage to my 2013 Freightliner and gave me an estimate of 8 total Labor hours but after my truck was finally finished, he charged me $2,160 which included 14 hours of labor. He then mentioned that he had to make several modification including a shrowd to make the radiator fit. In doing my due diligence received 4 other quotes from other shops including including a Freightliner Dealer which were all between 7-8 hours. And then had the nerve to say that "We actually wrote off 4 hours helper time". Apon the truck return home,I also had my mechanic who also workd at Freightliner check the truck out and found no midifications or schroud's. We're strongly contimplating reporting Dave Schirrick Co. to the Better Business Burau & Consumer Affairs which we never had to do in the entire 11 years we've been in business. read more

Would strongly recommend another shop in Winnemucca. Never really had a bad experience with mechanics in the past, Dave broke that streak. Two things: 1. Dave is dishonest, my wife and kids were stranded out there and he sought to mislead overcharge them. 2. Dave had a meltdown, a mildly psychotic episode. He yelled, called me names, and belittled me. It was so odd that I felt uncomfortable sending my wife back into his shop to pick up the vehicle. Those who know Dave personally know what I'm talking about, how he's changed. I went back to the sources that recommended Dave and he has now been taken off the list of people they recommend. Too much negative feedback about Dave and his shop to all the local auto parts stores. Again, would recommend you go elsewhere in town. Better places else where in town. read more

MyRV broke down 30 miles outside of Winnemucca at 11 PM night. Randy( great guy) from A1 towing picked us up and drove the RV to Dave's shop. Called Dave in the morning and he replaced the alternator and we were back on the road that same night. Dave and team were honest, friendly and knowledgeable and gave us a fair price. He an his team were a true oasis in the Nevada dessert. Highly recommend read more

Was overnighting on our way west and when we got to the RV park the leveling system in our RV was throwing error codes and we couldn't deploy the leveling jacks. Called Dave near the end of the workday and he sent Mike right out and he was at our camp site within 15 minutes of calling. While Mike didn't have the parts, he was able to diagnose the problem and provide me some work-arounds to deploy the leveling jacks. If you are broke down in Winnemucca, call these guys first. read more

I'm a owner operater, I got my freigthtliner cascadia 2011 exhaust pipe flex broken. It was only half hour job and they took 1.30 hours to fix it and they charged me for two hours. I have electronic log book record which said I stop my truck at their shop at 10.20 am and they started working on it after 10.30 am but after fixing my truck old lady said to me we started working at your truck at 10 am. Can you believe that ? When I started arguing then the old lady shouted at me by saying we will charge you for 2.30 hours if you argue with us. I'm a lawful immigrant here I didn't want to involve into this matter too much so paid them what they asked. Horrible lady please don't go there they put you too much on labor. I talked to one of my friends he told me he got his Freightliner cascadia fuel pump replaced from these guys and they put 20.5 hours labor. He paid around 4600 dollars if you talk to any other dealer they will say it's only 8 or 9 hours job to replace fuel pump. It's up to you guys they r good on service but on labor they will ruin you read more

Good People and very Good experience. My truck broke down today, 2016 Volvo VNL, need new air dryer, called Dave and told I need new air dryer. Air was fully going out from Purge Valve on bottom of air dryer. Was told that they don't have air dryer instock, but they do have purge valve... 45 min later, mechanic was under my truck, 191mm of NV and probably 30-45 min later, my driver was on the road again. Thank you guys..... hope I will not need your service anymore, but if my truck brake down again in the area, I definitely will call again read more

My wife and I broke down 50 miles north of Winnemucca in our motorhome . I had called good sam roadside assistance and Dave called me and offered his services. This happened on a Thursday night and we had to stay the night on the side of the road until we could get towed to Dave's. So we don't get there until late afternoon Friday,but no worries,Dave had someone working on it the minute it was disconnected from the tow truck. We stayed in a hotel that night and the next day (Saturday) at 11am we were on our way again! I highly recommend Dave Schirrick and his excellent mechanics! Thanks Guys G Wilkins Bend,OR read more

they helped me out with my motorhome that broke down. They came quickly to look at it..but the part was in Reno. 8:30 the next morning the part was being installed and I was back on the road by 9:30. Thanks guys! read more

Running hot problem on out Cat C7 diesel solved. Replaced both thermostats (Catapiller uses two) and engine temperatures are back to normal. For the mechanically minded, when they pulled the thermostat housing one of the thermostats actually fell apart. Must thank Dave Schirrick for his fast response. Spoke to him at 4:30pm on Monday and from his farm in Minnesota he called for parts and set us up for the repairs at the shop Tuesday afternoon in Winnemucka, NV. Thumbs up to Dave. And sincere thanks to Maria and TJ on the crew there! Duane & Nancy R. read more

Dave is extremely dishonest no communication, fabrication work was a B at best! Had them put an apron on my trailer and some wiring, the welding and what not looked average, the fitting of everything was pretty decent but they airarcd holes through the frame of my trailer when cutting out old material and then didn't paint anything when installing new material, and a job that was suppose to take 2 weeks and cost between 5k-7k, took almost 8 weeks!!!!!!! I called him a day before I picked my trailer up and asked how we were doing on the bill? He said and I quote oooh we're gonna be a little over 8 thousand. Which I would of been fine with, the next day I get a bill for $16500!!!!! and he started giving me the run around on how it got that high With no approval from me to ever put that kind of money into my trailer!! He took off 4K but still it was 5k-7k over what it was suppose to cost!! His word is no good I felt very taken advantage of I will never return, I called multiple times seeing when my trailer was going to be done and every time my stuff was pushed aside and they were working on something else. read more

Before I make my review, I would like to state that I owned my Own successful trucking Company and decided to step out of it for health reasons, so I would like anyone that reads this to know I do have experience with repair shops and what it takes time wise to repair trucks and trailers and the time involved and what not. So basically I know what's fair and what's not. 3 months ago I went to Dave looking for an air bag for one of the hay machines I was operating, he didn't have it, I can understand that and he asked if my boss had any work that he could do for them, I said possibly, Dave seemed like a honest guy so I told the people I work for that he could probably repair one of their Hay trailers that was in need of some attention, they decided to use Dave to repair it. When I dropped it off they said it would be done in like a week because when they asked the time frame of when we needed it I told them a couple weeks because we were still putting up hay but needed the trailer to begin hauling hay soon after, they insisted that it would be done in a week. Well 4 weeks went by and I had left truck with the trailer, thinking it was only gonna be 2 weeks and needed the truck to go grab some other trailers we were going to pickup to make a set with the one Dave had. The truck and trailer were moved behind his shop, batteries were dead because it had sat so long and only the boards the mechanic from where I work, not Dave's had peeled off to inspect the apron, 4 weeks and nothing done! Dave said they were gonna get right on it and the next week it should be done, another 4 weeks to get the trailer, replaced the apron, replaced the cross members above the apron, new wire and pintle hitch install. Mind you this was only supposed to take a week. Normal work week is 40 hours. Dave charged for over a 100 hours in labor, I sat in the office while he talked with my boss and I could hear Dave pleading about how much time it took and on and on but yet I heard Dave say he only had $2800 in parts in the trailer and the rest was in Labor, like a hundred hours, so the total bill was gonna be like $16500 and I had heard him on the phone while with my boss telling my boss the day before wouldn't be over $8500, then magically the next day the bill doubled, that didn't add up too me and that's mainly because Dave was saying how broke he was and people owed him all this money and all I can do is sit there and think, "is this guy really trying to take advantage of people that he knows is going to pay their bill in full because he's broke?!" Dave is pleading to take stuff in part trade for the work because he needs more junk laying around, then he gets pissed because my boss is not buying it and knows that this extra money in the bill is bogus, hangs up and tells his secretary to deal with it. As I'm sitting there I'm just looking at the secretary like wow and she said that this sort of thing happens all the time, my boss then calls the secretary and tells her to please let Dave know that he will pay $10500 and will continue to do business with Dave. Dave comes back in a while later, also wasting my time and not really caring. The secretary tells Dave what my boss offered and Dave starts in on "well I'm supposed to lose money to keep their business?" And she told him that just this one time and he got mad again and was an ass and said "yeah lose money on every deal". Well I can tell you this from my experience, $2800 in parts and $7700 in labor which comes out to like 60 hours or close to it, Dave wasn't losing money but he was definitely gouging and taking advantage of people that PAY their bills and my boss still paid $12500 even after being told the bill would be $8500 the day before, so unless you can fit 60hrs more in labor in in less then 24hrs there's a huge problem. It's not the smartest thing to sell out your business for a couple thousand more. They left holes in the frame and didn't paint where the paint had burned off, left one of the plugs out of the glad hand on the back. I will never recommend Dave! read more

We are very pleased with his service after having it in another shop in Winnemucca and losing an entire day because this shop could not find the problem even close Dave found the problem within 20 minutes and repaired it thank you so much Schmidt & Sohns Logistics LLC read more

We arrived in Winnemucca, NV and we had been having problems with the leveling system on our motor home. After talking to Maria she had Dave call me back and he explained he was completely booked up that day but would get someone out the next day. That next morning Dave called and told me he had an emergency call but would send someone out later. Around 11:00 Dave called and said his man was on the way. Mike arrived and he wasted no time in finding the problem, unfortunately the motor on the leveling system had failed, Mike tried all he could think of to patch it up but the motor was fried. He felt bad that he was unable to fix it. These men work outside in grueling heat everyday but will attempt to assist a stranger in need. If I'm ever through here and need help I will definitely call him back. read more

Broke down in Winnemucca. The first place I called said they couldn't get to me within a week, but gave me Dave's number and said give him a shot. So I called him. He said he couldn't get to me before the next day, but he'd get to me straight away. The next day came and Dave himself picked me up from the motel I was staying in, drove me to my truck, and made sure I got to his shop. As soon as I pulled in he had Rob hook up the computer and begin running diagnostics. The part wasn't available before the next day, but while I was waiting they offered me coffee and then fed me lunch. The next day the part didn't come in until super late but both Dave and Rob stayed as long as it took to get me back out. They are highly professional, hard working, and fundamentally decent people. If I ever have the misfortune of breaking down in Winnemucca again, I'll be calling Dave first. Awesome job guys. Thanks for everything. read more
