“Lake Tahoe Automotive;
I highly recommend an urge anyone looking for an honest, capable, knowledgeable, reliable, trustworthy, automotive mechanic, to use Lake Tahoe Automotive and get to know Mr.
Efren Jacquez.
In March 2024 just outside of South Lake Tahoe on the Kingsbury Grade the radiator blew out on our 2001 Honda. I called around to several other automotive repair facilities. None of them returned my call.
On Wednesday, within minutes of my having left a message, I received a call back from Lake Tahoe Automotive. That same afternoon Efren took our vehicle in his shop. He diagnosed, confirmed the radiator had a crack in the upper tank, he replaced the radiator with a new aftermarket radiator because the preferred OEM Honda radiator would not be available for more than a week as it had to be shipped in. We anticipated hearing from Efren at the soonest on Friday. The very next day, on Thursday afternoon we received a phone message from Efren that our car was ready. We were amazed that he completed this work within less than 24 hours. He told me that he believed we might need the car to get around Heavenly Valley ski area. Again, I believe that you will find Efren to be a first class gentleman and the first class mechanic who can be trusted and relied upon and who will most likely exceed your expectations.”

“Well well well. They got me in the same week I called. They serviced my car and did the recall work by 2:00. They sent me a video - A VIDEO - by text of what they did on my car and the status of various fluid levels and brake/tire wear levels. The service cost $121, far less than other dealers or even private shops. Very happy customer here. I plan to come back.”

“I recently had an exceptional experience with Struve Automotive. My car was making a loud noise, and a shop in Reno dismissed it as nothing. Concerned, I brought my car to Struve, and I am so glad I did. They identified and fixed the issue within a day. Their honesty about the problem and the pricing was refreshing. Thanks to their expertise, my car now feels brand new. If it weren't for them, my car could have been severely damaged. I highly recommend Struve Automotive for their reliable and professional service. Thank you!”

“TOP NOTCH CUSTOMER SERVICE, PHENOMENAL ATTENTION TO DETAIL, AND THE FINIAL RESULT WAS NOTHING SHORT OF SPECTACULAR. I brought my C6 Z06 CORVETTE in to have my exhaust tips brought out a bout an inch, straightened and leveled. I previously had the car at two other shops, not local and they both were unable to meet my expectations, the tips looked horrible at best when I arrived and after leaving they were absolutely perfect, in position and level. Also the tone of my exhaust became more crisp and definitely more pleasant to hear when I Rev it up and sounds like heaven when I'm ripping through the gears. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SHOP!! From custom to stock, he's got you covered. Great experience and the highlight of my week being able to have my cars exhaust system finally completed to perfection and being able to hear it loud and proud. 10/10 THANK YOU AGIAN, I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME, WORK, AND WISDOM.”

“Traveling from out of town and unexpectedly had our check engine light come on. Called around to a couple repair shops in the area, and Norm's was so friendly and helpful. They took a look at our car, diagnosed the error code, and didn't charge us anything. They were so kind and warm which goes along when having car troubles. Thanks for your help!”

“Our Jeep Sahara broke down in Lake Tahoe. Karl was the only one in town to answer on a Saturday. He replaced our starter in the hotel parking lot and was an absolute joy in the midst of a stressful situation. Best mechanic I’ve ever called. Highly recommend!!”

“This review is for Les Schwab South Shore Lake Tahoe. On a month-long trip towing a small trailer our brake pad indicator light came on (on the way from Yosemite to Tahoe). We took the car into Les Schwab for a free brake inspection, which they promptly did. Erik came over to give us the news that our brakes were badly worn and unlikely to safely endure the journey home. He immediately ordered the parts for next day service. This was July 2. We brought our car back next day and entered it into a long queue for brake jobs July 3. We got a call mid day from Les Schwab to say that it was unlikely it would be done that day. We were in a pickle as we had nowhere to stay over the July 4th weekend due to this unexpected development. I called back and spoke to Devon who assured me that he was working on our car and it would be finished within a few hours. He found that he needed to order a different set of calipers mid-job; did so and worked diligently until after hours to make sure our car was safe and functional. This experience was fantastic! These guys went above and beyond for us and we are grateful beyond words!!”

“Bob is so friendly! He's been answered our question patiently and checked our old mini_van asap at 7/2/23. Finally they repaired our Sienna and changed the key-part. We drove it and gone back home carefully. Thank you Bob.”

“10 STARS OUT OF 5! Lake Tahoe is lucky to have this place and I highly recommend Taylor! I don't usually write reviews but I have to give a shout-out to him because he is that rad! Taylor does really good work and he gets it done quickly. Most importantly, he's honest! He originally quoted me a number but then charged me less because he didn't think I needed things that were included in the original quote. If you snowmobile, dirtbike, boat, or anything power sport related, do yourself a favor and go to him with any issues. BEST SHOP IN TOWN!”

“Friendly, but love that it reminded me of my small hometown. Just an old school garage and a cute little dog to go with it. I got my car smog tested and he explained how to take the cert to the dmv to get my car registered.”

“Art was fantastic. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. He let me have my truck towed there immediately. My transmission was toast, so Art gave me the rundown of pricing, available warranty on the new transmission, and all options.

He was a little busy, had a vacation to attend, so it took a few weeks. Have to be patient in these situations. Everything works well.

My vehicle was a 2007 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT. New transmission, fluids, and labor, came out to around five-thousand, five-hundred. If you use a credit card, there is a fee for the transaction.

Would definitely recommend to everyone.”

“Sam helped my family and I right away. We called around to several shops, but no one had availability to see us quickly. Sam helped troubleshoot our RV issue so we could safely drive back to Oregon. Great guy and super honest. Highly recommend!”

“It’s a very good place. They do more than tiers. The lady at the front is very pleasant, knowlegible and efficient. The techs sorted out my issue very easily and the TPMS on that tire didn’t need replacement, like I thought.
Very satisfied with the service, recommend them highly. Will use them in the future as needed.”

“I would give John 10 Stars if I could!!! My Audi was having issues as I was making my way back to The Bay and I knew I wasn't gonna make it. John absolutely made the experience of breaking down the best it could possibly be. He clearly is an expert in his craft. I really appreciated his communication on what the issues were and how quickly he could get it repaired. His expertise and level setting of expectations made me feel comfortable and confident that I had found the best in the business to get me back on the road.
If I lived closer, he'd be the only person I would trust to work on my car. I often travel to South Tahoe, would be thrilled to schedule further maintenance at Higher Ground.”

The key is, be nice to him and he will take good care of you. he is the only guy in town who could work on my exotic car. I recommend the Nick's Auto experience!”
