A-1 Brake & Carburetor Shop - Las Vegas, Nevada

Edgar N.

New update as of now February 2023. My truck is on the final stages to be completed. I have updated to two stars pending final outcome.

Posted a month ago. I had to have metro show up to try and retrieve my truck. I was promised the already paid for repair would be done ASAP. We agreed if they did not i would get truck back and i take them to small claims.
As of today. No response and no truck.
This place is awful Awful. At the start all promises and cheap talk. Now they don't return calls. I have been insulted numerous times by this Brady. I waited to get them truck due to space and parts to be ordered. This was in March and they accepted truck as of April.
Gave them half the estimate as down payment. As of today agust going to September I am being told various excuses. Please save your self headache. Don't use them. I know have to figure how to get my truck back. What a waste of time. I had never dealt with a shop so unorganized. True discrimination how he talks down to me. He was nicer when they assumed I was not a minority. I will be filling a formal complaint against your license. Your response is a total lie. Your business continues to make stories up. How am I trying to get free work when I already paid you half the estimated amount. I have been the one waiting for your response. People. Don't do business here. More lies on what occurs. Good luck responding to the board on your practices. You have done nothing but place a dent on my truck. Now you tell me you don't want to work on it. That is if you are willing to accept the truth. Admit your a total drama. I should have read the reviews before conducting business. People have called you out about your lies too. Notice their response was derogatory and full of lies. No attempt to make things work. So clearly they are used to this practices. Crooks.

As of today now 11/29/2022. No truck. Had to get the Nevada department of motor vehicle. It seems my truck is now being worked on. Keep for final review.

Brady and the guys at A-1 are 100% honest and I would not trust any of my classic cars to anyone else. I brought the caddy in for a rear main seal which was quoted a fair price and after a day of having it he called me and told me the car was ready. To my surprise Brady said it was never the rear main seal and instead a oil pressure switch which cost half of the original quote. These guys are trustworthy and I really appreciated what they did. 100% recommend these guys hands down.

I've had DENNIS work on all my cars & he's simply THE BEST & MOST HONEST MECHANIC IN LAS VEGAS! He was recommended to me by a close friend & now I recommend him to EVERYONE! He's smart, & his prices are so fair & far BELOW dealer prices. He works on anything from a Ford to a Mercedes!!! He's THE BEST!

Highly recommended. The only shop I will ever take my cars to. Dennis is a great mechanic. He is honest, gets to point and takes care of the problem. No bs. I go here for things as simple as an oil change to major repairs. I've sent many customers his way and they all have come back to me saying they were happy with his service.

Brady is the best. They replaced my carb, plugs and wires, timed and got my old 86 Ford F350 running that had been setting for a couple years. These guys are great. Anything I need done in the future, this business will do it. I am totally confident in their business.

First of all some of these reviews are not true. Dennis passed away last year. A friend of mine used their service, but he was just charged for a part ( and labor) that was still working while his problems were not fixed. The worst part is that he was lied to, when he went to pick up the car that it was fixed. They never wanted to admit to any wrongdoing, even if they knew that the problems were still there. Stay away from this place is my advice to you. After the response from the owner, and checking the facts, I have to add that he is not an honest person and keeps on lying. In fact complaints were filed also with the BBB.

I took it to another place before A-1 and the guy started right away making up things wrong and wanting to fix one thing at a time that didn't need fixing, telling me he had to try this first, then try something else until he weaseled God knows how much money out of me. Fortunately, I'm not that dumb.. I brought my truck to A-1 from word of mouth and Dennis gave me a price half what the dealership wanted to charge me. He was no BS and he did a fine job.
