Can I give this place 5 stars for NOT working on my car?? Let me explain -- my car had been making…read morea noise like an RC car running out of juice and the guys at the auto part store said the alternator was going out. Lovely. I had called a few places around town and ZZZ was able to (A) get me in right away, (B) provide a precise quote for what I thought was the issue over the phone and (C) make me feel immediately "safe" with them in that first call. When asking if I wanted refurb or new parts, the price was about $150 difference. I originally said new, but they advised me about the warranty on refurb parts and not to feel scared of it. I appreciated that they didn't just take my money. Once I arrived, I told them about the previous convo at the auto store and they did some diagnostic tests, all while letting me stand there and watch. About 10-15 minutes later and some dusting stuff off they're like...nah you're good. If anything I needed a new battery, but they said even that was in pretty good shape. They offered to install that for me if I wanted, but basically said that I could just go. Since then, my car has been totally fine! A less ethical place could've easily just cheated me, charged for XYZ or installed a new alternator anyway. So they didn't really do work on my car this time, but their honesty 10000% earned my business for the next time a problem arises.

The results were described in a clear manner and I was provided with a clear outline of the further steps. The diagnostic work was of good quality and did not have any unnecessary additions. Pricing was negotiated beforehand and the final price was in line with the estimate which was fair value of the service offered. The process was generally well-organized and clear, and I would go back in case I require additional help.

I recently moved to the Truckee Meadows and needed my front brake pads changed. I almost made the mistake of going to a chain tire-and-auto repair shop, where they insisted that not only did my pads need changing, but my calipers did as well, and quoted me $900. This was unwarranted; my calipers were perfectly fine, and my Jeep only needed new brake pads. Fortunately, I found Russ, an honest and skilled mechanic. Since then, I have taken my Jeep to Russ and consistently received excellent service. I highly recommend Russ and his team.

Honestly, I had a really good experience here…read more Nile was the one who initially helped me and recommended starting with a compression test first instead of jumping straight into expensive repairs. That really stood out to me because it showed they actually wanted to make sure the engine was worth fixing before spending more money. After that, Clayton took over and continued helping me through the process. He explained everything clearly and kept me updated the whole time. They found multiple issues like intake leaks, an injector problem, and a radiator leak, but I never felt pressured to fix everything at once. I really appreciated that they worked with me and let me prioritize what I could afford. I ended up fixing the main issue, and the misfire is now gone. The car is running much better. Repairs aren't cheap, but I felt like they were honest and transparent throughout the whole process. Communication was great, and I always knew what was going on. Overall, I'd definitely recommend CoAuto if you're looking for a shop that actually explains things and doesn't pressure you into unnecessary repairs.

Nobody enjoys car repairs especially big ones. But the team at CoAuto definitely made the process a…read morelittle easier to swallow with walking me through things. They take pictures and video to show you what things actually look like vs what they should look like. Also big shout out to Nile whose unusual rep for repairs, he's super communicative with where they're at. The shop also has a couple loaner vehicles which came in clutch when I had to get my timing chain fixed. I was able to still get to and from work. The staff here is super nice and I feel like they care for my car as if it's their own. On my last repair they asked if they could hold onto my car for another day cause they weren't satisfied with where they got it and wanted to double back and tweak a couple things to hopefully give my car back in as best condition as possible.(this wasn't any extra cost). I also love doing my oil changes here, they check a bunch of other areas of your car while they do the oil change and give you a rundown of recommended fixes. Also if not they have never pressured me on any fixes which eases my mind. Pressure sales in the auto industry feel fake and dishonest to me. Also, they give your car a quick wipe down of the consoles and vacuum as long as your car isn't full of stuff. It feels nice to get your car back a little cleaner than you gave it to them.

The team was friendly, professional, and the turnaround time was excellent. After I picked up my car, one of the lights on the dashboard came on, so I stopped back in. They were kind enough to reset the computer and told me to come back if it happened again. It hasn't come on since, so everything seems to be working perfectly. I truly appreciate their honesty, responsiveness, and the quality of their work. I will definitely bring my vehicle back here if I ever need service again.

I reached out to several mobile mechanics through Yelp on Thursday evening, and Jim was the only one who responded initially. He was able to schedule us for Saturday afternoon, which was critical since we were supposed to head home that day. Another shop didn't have availability until Monday and the other high rated mobile mechanic was out of town. Because of storm-related commute issues earlier in the week, Jim ended up arriving around 4pm instead of noon. Totally understandable given the conditions. He worked outside in freezing weather and never complained once. Jim was incredibly friendly and easy to talk to. He was great with my wife, my son, and even let our dogs jump on him and give him kisses. Despite the tough conditions, he got the job done and got us safely back on the road with a solid new CV axle so we could make it home as planned. I'd hire Jim again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend.

My cars battery was faiing and alarm randomy kept going on and off…read more I first took my car to the auto shop that has worked on my cars in the past. After 4 days in their shop, they called and said they replaced the battery but could not stop the alarm from going off and on. I asked them if they could just pull it out and they stated it was to complex so I picked it up and brought it home. I reached out to The Mobil Mechanic and he said he could fix it. He came out a few days later. He started working on my car soon after he got here. He was very polite and knowledgeable . He was showing me different things as he was discovering problems with codes. Why I can't give him 5 starts is that he spent 2 hours on the car and said he finally fixed it then he said the aftermarket alarms are not very good and I would most likely have problems pop up again in the future. He said I would just take out the Alarm. I told him go ahead if that what he recomended however, Why didn't he tell me that earlier? Why work on a car to fix a problem then after it is fixed tell me I should have it taken out. Also if you hire him you might want to ask him what the hourly rate is before he starts. I was shocked and I guess shame on me for not asking him before hand.
