Allen's Automotive 402 Victorian Avenue, Sparks, NV 89431

"$825 for an oil change, tire rotation, new air filter, and new brake pads for rear brakes only on a 2016 Chevy pickup. They charged an extra 3.5% of the bill (about $30) to use a credit card. INSANE prices for routine maintenance. I unfortunately had no time to shop around or I would have gone somewhere else. Their “St Patrick’s Oil Change Special” cost $145 - FOR AN OIL CHANGE?!?!? And this is the discount price?!? $503 for rear brake pads only; they quoted over 1000 and tried to up-charge me on new rotors even though my current rotors are in spec $74.70 charge for a $32.20 air filter. They also quoted me $4500 for control arm replacements, which, in my opinion represents highway robbery price gouging. I’m the idiot for going here, will not be going back"

"Absolutely horrible from start to finish. Brought in because it failed smog. Made it clear this is a throw away car meaning not worth major repairs. What I got in return was a 3,000 bill to pass smog! Yes that’s right and nothing was actually replaced bit a spark plug and 4 new piece of tires that I obviously didn’t need. Thieves….. BBB copied on this ."

"First time being to this shop. Took my truck in for a second opinion after the dealership was asking for major repairs at a major cost. John and Mike helped me to find out that the repairs were not needed at this time, but will need to be done when the parts do actually fail. They couldn't varify or duplicate the problems that the dealership found. And they didn't want to just throw parts and money at a problem they couldn't find yet. Very honest and and very nice people! Will definitely be bringing my vehicles here in the future."

"Allen's & Levrett Automotive are mechanics you can trust! We go out of our way to bring our late-model cars to Allen's Automotive (and their sister-shop, Levrett) as they always do a thorough evaluation of our vehicles. Alex is especially helpful! She helps me stay on budget by reviewing which issues are "fix now" vs. "fix later" priorities, and has even pointed me towards inexpensive fixes we can do on our own. Love these guys! So glad we found them!"

"I've been going here for a few years now, and was recommended from a family friend. These guys are great, professional, kind and at a fair price. I've also referred my friends here. So great work and thank you!"
