Absolutely amazing! Service you can trust! What they tell you is what you need. No BS from major dealerships, just good quality care and honesty. My grandfather would only go to Reno vulcanizing and now I know why!!
Came with a hole in my oil filter freaking out about losing my engine. They were able to fit me in right away as I’m not from Reno and was on the road. I really appreciate you getting me in and saving my Truck. Front office person was super friendly. Tech who worked on my truck was also super nice and knowledgeable.
They always take good care of my car and me. Juan is an outstanding manager.
Reno Vulcanizing always gives great, professional and friendly service at good prices. I really like the extra, no charge Vehicle Health Report which lets me know if there are any issues that need fixing now or soon. I feel very confident with the service and confident that my car is working properly.
Dropped my boat trailer off for a wiring issue. The tech did a great job of figuring out the problem and fixing it in a timely manner.
Fixed the problem and there was no attempt to “up sale” on unnecessary services. Greeted professionally
Had a great experience at Reno Vulcanizing! Honest diagnostic, advice, and pricing. Full service shop including tires and even oil changes. Hopefully my car won't need service, but if it does, I know where to go.
Prompt service and they did a great job. Very professional
