LT Automotive

It is refreshing to see a place where they are willing to help you and not think about making an easy profit. Bruce was very attentive and helpful.
I would not hesitate to recommend this place, the same way they did recommend it to me.

Mark and everyone else at LT automotive are great and a very reliable shop they keep my car running great throughout every season!!!

I’ve been taking my cars to LT Automotive for the past 5 years and they have always done such a great job at not only fixing whatever is wrong at fair prices, but also informing me of any potential issues with my car. It’s so nice to know that I am safe on the road because the guys down at LT are looking after my car for me. Thank you guys!

I called LT Automotive out of the blue and glad I gave them a chance. Mark was nothing but kind and helpful from the first phone call. Bruce followed up later and was very courteous and explained everything clearly. They did all they could for my lemon. I believe they run a great auto repair shop; they have a new customer.

The first time I went here was for a muffler change and my dad came with me, the shop was nice, friendly, and cheap!
Unfortunately that isn’t the same experience as the one I had today. I went in for an oil change because the Hyundai dealership was essentially ripping me off, and the same situation happened! I couldn’t believe it. 80 bucks for an oil change when I brought in the filter??? Hyundai only charges 60 for the exact same thing?
Well, then I get told that I need my coolant changed and Hyundai recommends it. I say I don’t have the money for it and the guy on the phone scoffs and gets annoyed with me. After that, when I pick my car up, we tell him have a good day and he sarcastically says, «Yeah.»?
Sorry LT Automotive, my family has been going to your shop for a while, but after this, none of us will be.
UPDATE: Mark, tell me why installing a muffler was $ 100 while an oil change is $ 80? Also your «free multipoint inspection» is free at EVERY automotive mechanic. Your mechanic expertise couldn’t even tell me if I had a leak, and you had to suggest me to go to another shop.
If you hadn’t blatantly ripped me off, because my former mechanic father wasn’t with me, who you personally know because he walked in and you said hi to him first, we’d be talking, but this review is staying to show that you guys treat those with and without knowledge of cars differently.
Also, I’m quite insulted over the fact that you assume I know nothing of my car. Yes, it is at 90,000 miles, regularly inspected, and taken care of, to the point where your mechanics said its the cleanest engine they’ve seen.

LT Automotive did a great job replacing the starter on my 1995 Saturn.
This was a knuckle-​busting kind of job that I was happy to pay someone else to do.
They completed the job in one day and the price was right.
I highly recommend you talk with Mark, Bruce and the crew at LT Automotive about repairs and regular service for your car or truck.

PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU GO THERE!!! I went in with my old beat up SUV wanting an estimate on my exhaust and see how things looked in general underneath. THIS GUY comes back to me with a stack of estimates each for several hundred dollars worth of work. I listened to what he said while thinking I gotta get the hell outta here quick!!! (This next part is not an advertisement it’s simply the people I dealt with) I then took my vehicle into the Meineke on w4th and they did my exhaust for almost exactly half the price LT quoted me and then I went to the shell on the corner of moana & Kietzke and they did a tuneup for one third of the price they quoted me. These guys are straight scum and any review on here that’s not negative just has to be from them and their friends or people who had no idea they were being taken.

The best. This is an exhaust shop that does wonderful custom work. They sweat the small stuff (quality welds, measuring the angle of dual exhaust tips, etc) and are experts with listening and meeting sound needs.
I have also used them for light automotive repairs (transmission flush, electrical) and all has been top notch. All at a fair price.

Honest, fast, helpful, and generous we had these guys check out a truck before purchasing it and we got honest feedback. When we had more work done on a second car and got a great deal. Finally we have a mechanic that we can trust in Reno!!!

as a female, i felt listened to and i trusted LT. they fixed my car A/​C for half the price of two other mechanic’s who couldn’t even diagnose it correctly. will take my car back here regularly.

Went to LT automotive to get my catalytic converter tested. They tested it to find out that nothing was wrong and the proceeded to find the issue. They determined that my truck was misfiring then offered me a quote to tune up my truck, I nicely turned it down. Then went on my way. They did all those services in a timely manner and didn’t even charge me.

What I thought was a exhaust leak turned out to be a transmission leak. This shop not only told me it was likely covered under my factory warranty but called the dealership for me to verify and explain exactly what was wrong to the service desk. If you’ve ever delt with Nissan before you’re aware how awesome it is to not have to argue with them! Nissan is now fixing the issue for free, but LT has earned my future business and referrals. They didn’t even charge for the diagnosis.

Poor customer service!!! And that was just over the phone can’t imagine going in… My boyfriend called to ask if they could install his new exhaust. He talked to Bruce and gave him the details of what he wanted done. Bruce rudely responded «we don’t do after market exhaust installs here only custom work» as my boyfriend was saying thank you have a nice day, Bruce hung up the phone before my boyfriend was done talking. Good thing they weren’t able to help us, we wouldn’t have wanted to spend our money after being treated like a bother. Wish I could give it 0 stars…
