Sierra Autosport

They charged $ 1,100.00 to replace the front upper and lower control are bushings on my 1969 Triumph TR6 and come to find out they only replaced the uppers. Then what they did replace was not done correctly and the new bushings were coming apart making the car unsafe to drive. The owner, Brad Erling initially said too bad, so sad, I’m not giving you a penny back nor am I going to fix what you paid for. I also explained I would report him to the Nevada DMV to be investigated. He has now offered to refund $ 300.00 of the $ 1,100.00. So it’s going to cost me for another shop to do the job over. That would be $ 2,200.00 (original work not done and new work to be done) less $ 300.00 from Brad or a total of $ 1,900.00 for front control arm bushings. The guy is obviously not concerned about his customers, just what he can put in his wallet. I hope DMV investigates him to see how many other jobs he botched and took paying customer’s money.

Had these guys replace a catalytic converter and O2 sensors in my Audi in ’09. Now, in early ’11 the catalytic converter and sensors they replaced all need to be replaced again. They aren’t going to do a thing to correct.
If you don’t mind a mechanic shop that doesn’t step up to the plate to correct shoddy work done with substandard parts, then head over to Sierra Autosport!

Found Sierra Autosport on the internet-​needed a repair shop for my Alfa Romeo when I relocated to Reno. They specialize in foreign autos– the mechanics are Bosch certified. Oddly enough, haven’t had to take the Alfa in yet (miracles do occur). But my main ride needed some work. The air conditioner condenser was in failure mode and needed to be replaced because some other systems, like power steering, run off the pulley. Also, needed to have the oil pan gasket replaced. And some minor other work. Job was completed quickly and expertly. Next I had to register my car in Nevada and it failed smog. Back to the shop. The car had been to the dealer in Walnut Creek about 3 months before when the check engine light came on. Car really didn’t drive that well after, but I knew that the other work need to be done. Well the mechanics at Autosport found 2 o-​rings and an intake hose (about $ 75 for parts) that needed to be replaced. The dealer apparently totally missed those and replaced a more expensive electronic module (about $ 400). Autosport even smogged the car for me. In my opinion, really great job. I almost look forward to taking the Alfa in for repairs (LOL)!
