    Might have been a bad day for us to stop there but I had a tire that was losing air pressure and…read morenobody ever came out to assist us so we drove a little further down the road and had it repaired in less than 10 minutes.

    My wife and I had just begun the first leg of a few hundred mile road trip through Nevada…read more Unexpectedly a mild, yet noticeable vibration formed in our Jeep at around 70 MPH. A week before, I had new wheels and tires installed (at a different shop) and so I figured the vibration was wheel related. Hoping to resolve this issue before we started our second leg, I looked around for a tire shop. Of a few tire shops in Elko, NV, Purcell opened the earliest and had the best reviews. I got there right when they opened. I was cheerfully greeted by a very knowledgeable associate who listed carefully to my description of the vibration and asked good follow-up questions to try and pin-point what the issue could be. I have a background in automotive so I'm used to the troubleshooting process. But I have no hands-on experience with tire work so I knew an expert would be needed. Prior to visiting the shop, I though the absence of stick-on wheel weights on the front left tire indicated the weights had somehow flown off. With this information relayed to the tech, they started with that wheel. After about 10 minutes, the associate told me the tech determined that wheel actually needed no weights (rare, but it does happen). She told me they'd check the right front wheel and sure enough--that wheel had gone out of balance. I figured this was the "smoking gun" and so I declined to have the other wheels checked and left. Once I got up to speed, the vibration was still there yet it was different. I went back a few hours later and described the issue. They had a look at the two rear tires and they were also out of balance! All told between my two visits that day, it only took about 30 min to have all four tires removed, checked, balanced, and remounted. Fast! We continued on with our hundred+ mile journey without further issue or vibration. Whew! There's no doubt in my mind that if I had chosen to have Purcell look at all four tires the first visit--I wouldn't have needed the second visit. It was a great learning experience and if I'm ever in Elko again, I wouldn't hesitate to take my vehicle there again!

    First and foremost, let me say that I let myself get screwed over by these people. They misled me…read moreinto believing that my tires were in bad condition, convinced me that I needed new ones and then bent me over on the price. They more than doubled the price on the tires and then charged me $170 to remove three lug nuts and $40 to remove my spare tire. I was in the process of moving from the East Coast to California and, by the time they got done having their way with me, I was in such a rush to get the hell out of there that I didn't even bother to check the invoice. Big, big mistake. I'm sure after I left that they had a good, long laugh at my expense. Well, after screwing me for as much as they did, they could afford it. I let much of this go as an expensive lesson learned. Well, when the crappy tires they sold me wore out early, I had to replace them. The installers (Firestone in Stockton, CA ... great people) confirmed another lie they told me intentionally to sell me more tires. Enough is enough. I just wish I had filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. If you're ever stuck in Elko and need tires, go somewhere else. I think there's a Wal-Mart or even a Goodyear (which is just down the street). I would like to say that, next time I'm in Elko, I will not avoid these guys. I won't give them my business ever again but I won't avoid them. The next time I'm in Elko, I'm going to drive by just so I can honk at them and flip them off. This place, in my opinion, is just a scam factory.

    PLEASE read this review before applying for 707 elko nv location…read moreTECH 1 - 707 ELKO NV. The reason why Im doing this review is so peopele looking for a job just dont apply here the manager name is jerry reuben moe worst manager ever and he thinks he know whats going on in the shop. Also coporate didnt do anything to him, I feel like he bride with corporate so he doesn't get introuble of how bad is this place is because hes been gone with tim for over 3 hours out of the shop, which it looks sus like why he going with him and i thought we was about to have a meeting but nope. Most of the equipment in the shop is old like 5 to 10 years like tires machine is like 10 years old, and there nothing new equipment except for a vaccum. The money they make is different the tr guy and next shop guy that works on earth mover tires makes the money, but working in the shop and semi tires is extra for manager but they could spend up to 380k on 1 new semi truck and 3 service pick up truck but cant even spend on the he shop that we need to be working but nope that how that lazy boss does. And he has nothing else to do except to find problems with you just like he did to me. He blamed me for false info of me stealing the company tool like really they all from indian anyway and plus I has my own tools paid off but then he just kept blaming me for no reason Dont apply here its not worth it, youll burn your body less than 3 months in and they wont even bother helping you just like they did to me. ALSO THE BAD THING IS EVERYONE AT THE SHOP DOESNT KNOW WHAT GOING ON WITH THE TIRES THAT STAYED BEHIND. LIKE THERE 2 TIRES FROM LEDCORE THATS BEEN THERE FOR OVER A YEAR NOW WAITING TO BE PUT ON A NEW TIRE AND PICKED UP BUT THE WHEEL IS STILL THERE OR EVEN SOME OF THOSE TIRES HAVE BEEN THERE FOR FEW WEEKS TO MONTHS AND EVEN TO YEARS. ALSO FOR THE GUYS IN THE SHOP WE DONT MAKE ENOUGH, WE DONT GET BONUS AT ALL, WE ONLY GET PAID BY 8 HR AND CANT DO ANY OVERTIME, ALSO YOU GET PAID FOR HOLIDAYS BUT THATS ABOUT IT AND YOU GOING TO WONDER WHERES THE REST OF THE MONEY GOES TO AND IT GOEWS TO HIS POCKET FOR NO REASON SMH HE SHOULD OF BEEN RETIRED ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO. WHICH ITS NONSENSE. ONLY LIKES HIS FAVORITE EMPLOYEES, EVEN WHEN YOU BEEN THERE THE LONGEST HE DISLIKE YOU AND TREAT YOU WITH BUNCH OF DISRESCPECT AND HE CANT EVEN CONTROL HIS ANGER BECAUSE HE WAS FISTING HIS FIST LIKE GETTING READY FOR A FIGHT AT ME , WHEN WE HAD AN STUPID ARGUMENT ABOUT HIS EQUIPMENT AND SAYING THAT I STOLED HIS TOOLS. BUT GOOD THING ALL I DID IS JUST WALKED AWAY FROM HIM BECAUSE DIDNT WANT ANY PROBLEM BUT HE KEPT BRINGING THE PROBLEMS TO YOU WHILE YOURE JUST MIDING YOUR OWN BUSINESS. SO I RECOMMEND FIND SOME WHERE ELSE OR EXPERIENCE WHAT IVE EXPERIENCE WITH HIM FOR OVER A YEAR AND HALF FROM MARCH 2020 TO JULY 2021 ALL THIS FILES IS BUNCH OF PICS THAT I TOOK AND THE WHOLE SHOP AND EVEN THE EQUIPMENT BARELY WORKS.
