Reno Auto Repair

Such an awesome place! Super clean and friendly, they take pictures of any issues they find and make recommendations, they always ask before doing anything extra, and they really go out of their way to make you feel like they care about you! Thanks guys! I appreciate you!

Super stoked that CoAuto has gone paperless. Hands down the most uniquely reliable place to get your car serviced/repaired. OFF THE CHARTS Professionalism. Good people who do good things with everything they put their hands on. - Congratulations on your promotion Rochelle M.

In late October 2018, nearing 100K miles on my Subaru, I knew it was time to replace the timing belt. Having received a quote of nearly $1600 from a dealership for the job, I started checking into locally owned service centers. After an internet search of local shops, and their respective reviews, CaAuto had risen to the top as a potential candidate to perform the service. Upon contacting them, I was given a quote well below the dealership’s price. I confirmed with CoAuto they were using the same brand of replacement parts the dealer was using, and their tech had many years of experience servicing Subarus. While servicing my vehicle, they kept me apprised of the progress with photos, and suggestions of other items that might need attention. It was up to me to accept or decline their recommendations. They had my vehicle ready by 5 PM, as promised. I would not hesitate to return to CoAuto for future service on any of my vehicles. Furthermore, I’ve recommended them to friends and family, should anyone be searching for a full-service shop, staffed by ASE certified technicians, to maintain or service their rides.

After dealing with a sketchy shop what a true blessing to have found CoAuto (thank you Yelp!) The personalization and taking the time to explain, (as well as text alerts and photos of what is wrong) one cannot find at many places. Everyone being the counter is very friendly and happy to see you! This is a good reliable trustworthy place especially if you are a female. Everything is explained and they take the time to get the job done right. Relying on my car so much for my current position at work I need peace of mind when my car is not functioning correctly, so I am very thankful to have CoAuto nearby! I tell everyone I know about this car shop.

After having multiple disappointing experiences with the Honda dealership I was determined to not go back. Co-Auto has been highly recommended to me from several friends and since its extremely close to home for me I took my CRV in for service. Every step of the process from dropping off the car, prioritizing services to pick up was pleasant and never felt that creepy "I'm being taken advantage of" vibe that I have with other shops. I am thrilled to have a fair, through shop that I feel good about doing business with. Highly recommend!

I've dealt with CoAuto a couple of times since my longtime mechanic died last year, and I think I've found my new place. They do careful and accurate work, and while they're pretty busy, when I went in late on a Friday morning with a minor emergency, they squeezed me in so I could have the car for the weekend. A couple of concerns: They're a "paperless shop," so you get a text to your cell phone, not a paper receipt. If I ever need a record, I won't be able to find it. Just gimme a copy. And they make such a point of explaining how much they plan to check before they'll do what you came in for that it begins to sound like "upselling." I got a detailed note (on my phone) explaining that I needed new windshield wipers for $58 (had a set in the trunk that I'd bought for $14 a few days before but hadn't installed), and they recommended that I change spark plugs--for $438! To be fair, I've never changed plugs on this car, but I've done it on many others. On most, it's about a 10-minute job, and my four plugs cost $10 each. But there's an easy DECLINE option on the text message, and they don't seem to hold a grudge if you use it. All in all, I'm pleased with CoAuto, and I'll certainly go back

I can't stop telling my friends about what a great experience I had at CoAuto. They could have milked me hard and left me dry with no legitimate recourse. Instead, they kept me informed, gave me honest recommendations and helped me make a very difficult decision. If a good shop is worth their collective weight in gold...CoAuto is priceless. I called because I liked a picture of the well done art on the wall in the shop when I was scrolling shops online and I went in because the friendly voice on the other end of the phone sounded like she really wanted to help. When I walked in the shop was well lit, clean and inviting...it felt good to be there. A quick chat with Rochelle at the front desk led me to understand quickly that CoAuto is not just an auto shop but a community support system reaching out to promote local artists and helping young people find their passion for the automotive trade, but don't think for a second that they let their good deeds distract from quality, thorough work. The high tech digital method CoAuto uses to document and explain every detail of their work on your vehicle is incredible, informative and comforting. They go above and beyond to help their customers understand what is happening with their vehicle by posting quality pictures and video with attached notes. They earned my trust and it feels pretty amazing. If you're looking for a specialist to take care of your vehicle then CoAuto is the place to go because they specialize in taking care of the people who's vehicles keep this town moving. They're not just good at what they do, they're good to you, too. Thank you CoAuto, I appreciate you.

CoAuto raises the bar in auto repair service! Their customer service is excellent from the minute you walk in the door. They start the process with a Friendly and welcoming attitude. Their office is clean, modern, comfortable, and also an art gallery filled with works from local artists. They take all your info, put it in their computer and offer you options for all future communications; phone, text, and/or email. They take your car for a test drive to help identify the problem and if needed have you leave it for further investigation. They do charge for evaluation work if it takes more than 15 mins. to locate the problem. They charged me for a full hour to completely go over the car and document all of the recommended work plus the original problem that i brought the car in for. You should be able to negotiate just to have them tell you only the specific problem your car is having. I left and heard back from them is 3 hours. They sent me a text message with a link to their customer service website. It had ever detail you could want to see without having to be there. Pictures of each thing that needed doing with arrows and circles annotating every problem. An estimated cost for the repair and approval or refusal buttons to let them know what you wanted the repair work done of not. They had the car fixed that evening and notified me it was ready for pick up; did not have to call them. They have a 3 year warranty and road side assist if the repair fails on the road. They had all of the bad parts for me and my coffee cup that i forgot the day before. They explained what was wrong and how the repair was done. The cost was reasonable and they repaired the problem to my complete satisfaction. Rachelle is the friendliest person and makes the trip there worth while. They are a great organization taking auto repair service to a new level.

Extremely pleasant experience in a disheartening time. My vehicle was vandalized and everyone at the shop I worked with, I had most contact with Rochelle, were incredibly prompt, empathetic, and compromising when things didn't go as planned. Highly recommend.

Really loved the place and people. moved to reno last summer.. i always find it economical to buy used reliable cars and get them fixed properly. co auto helped me fix up my recently bought minivan and car. loved their detailed "car health" reports, so i can plan my repairs and watch out for issue that can crop up. they are usually booked a few days in advance but based on my interaction, believe they would be able to accommodate me in case of an emergency.. will update my review when i get to try them more "regular" work like oil changes etc
