First oil change here - they were great. No up sales ! Price was ok and most important we got the service .

We use to take my Wife's car to this place when it was Dolar repair. Now it's Grease monkey, so I needed to replace the Air Shocks on my Equus. I wanted to save money so I ordered the parts online and GM charged me $312 to install them. They got the job done is less than 90 minutes and the car now drives great. This is where I will continue to take my cars for major repairs read more

A solid and good mechanic is a rare find. An honest one is a unicorn. Dolar's Automotive hits all evaluative criteria dead center. I have been to Dolar's several times now for varying issues with multiple visits. More than one emergency breakdown. Each time I received steady, competent, efficient, cost effective, fairly priced, honest advice and work. They mostly run on scheduled appointments, and your vehicle is in, diagnosed, and back out the door running great in short order. I cannot overstate the competency, honesty, and quick turn around I have uniformly received. read more

TLDR: don't wait to book an appt with "reputable" brand and get ripped off 4x the fair price. Get ripped off by any other car brand. I did my research to find a "reputable" shop to do a hitch install. According to the install guide (and an online video from the manufacturer), it's a 30 minute install guide for professionals and 60 mins for hobbyists. So color me surprised when I get billed for 2 hrs. When I called to complain, they said it's because "modifications to the car needed to be made" however those said modifications are included in the install guide... Also, they quoted me $115/hr but I was charged $122/hr because I brought my own parts even though I told the receptionist on the phone I was bringing my own parts. Oh and they didn't call me when it was finished (I had to call them)....maybe stalling to say it took extra time read more

So we had a battery replaced at the Dealership due to a fire hazard recall on our 2015 Rav4. Just so happened they found 10 things that needed to be fixed for a total of more than $6200. What a coincidence! Called Dolar's where we had been going for 15 years and were shocked to learn Mike retired, so it was with not a little trepidation that we scheduled an appointment there. What a relief to find that the new owner was honest as well, and the mechanics there remained! They found only 3 of the purported problems to be an issue, and explained why and how on everything. Even the new office manager, Hayley, went out of her way on our behalf and found a part that was as good as the first one she ordered, but cheaper, so instead of the over $1700 estimate, our total was $1495 for new axle, spark plugs and water pump! That's a mere $4700 we saved! What a super way to keep up Mike's amazing legacy! Thank you so very much! read more

I brought my Subaru to this Grease Monkey location because of the positive reviews and my high expectations were exceeded! I had a weird noise coming from my suspension and they explained it was just a loose bolt connected to my strut. They just tightened it and sent me on my way. I will definitely return the next time I need an honest mechanic! read more

We are SO happy with this place. We always came here when it was DOLAR's shop; very honest, fair prices, and great work. I am happy to say the new owners are carrying on with the same tradition. We brought our Tahoe SUV in today and were very impressed with Corey. Again; HONEST, FAIR PRICES, AND GREAT WORK. We will be returning again and again. Review from: Jim Corzine and Christina Hansen Corzine. read more

Dolar's is my go to for auto repair. I've been going to him for over 15 years and I cannot recommend him enough. He's fair, he's honest, he's reasonably priced, and if he doesn't feel comfortable or think he can do it, he'll tell you. He fixed what I thought was a bad alternator by just adjusting a battery cable and didn't charge me a thing since it was so simple. This shop is legit a hidden gem in the valley, and I honestly feel like I'm spilling secrets by writing this review, but in times like these, we need more honesty. read more

Don is the best we have five cars and I have introduced him to 3 my good friends there are now using him as well. There is nothing Dan cannot handle and of course the prices are better than anywhere else that we've been to as long as we live in Las Vegas we won't go to anyone else. Cheers read more

I have been bringing my Diesel truck here for years to be serviced. Recently the owner sold it to Grease Monkey. The service has gone into the toilet. I have spent 20 years going here and within several months of them selling it. It has gone down hill. The manager has no clue what he is talking about and they took my truck in even though they don't work on them and charged me a $160 diagnostic fee. I had another vehicle in (not a diesel) several weeks back and I thought the poor service was a fluke due to new management and a learning curve but nope. I will say the girls working behind the counter seem nice but again don't seem to know anything about vehicles and don't really seem to care. read more

A few days ago our a/c started running warm air -- we took it to DOLAR'S AUTOMOTIVE this morning at 7:00 A.M. By 9:00 A.M my husband was back home. Mike found a slow leak - fixed it - put a pound of coolant (?) and it's running fine now. Very fast, efficient, honest, and affordable. THANK YOU MIKE! read more

I was looking for a new automotive place that I could trust with my car and was referred to Dolar. I took my car for a general check to see if it needed servicing and I'm happy with these folks. I didn't need anything done during this visit, but I felt they were honest and capable. They didn't charge me for the check, so I can't comment on fees but I believe they will be reasonable. I found my new mechanics - what a relief! The search is over! read more

I will always take my vehicles to Mike at Dolar auto. Honest and trustworthy. Thank you Mike and team.

Never had a better experience with a mechanic. Unfortunately I found him as I'm PCSing away, but I'd never take my car anywhere else in Vegas. read more

This place is awesome ..They know what they are talking about ..A Wonderful family run company that has earned my business

Been there twice in the last few months but forgot to write a review. Husband and wife business and they are awesome. Super nice, super professional, did a great job and was very communicative and quick. Charges were fair across the board. Had a family mechanic growing up but they retired years ago. Great to know I have this ace in the hole now 5 minutes from home. So hard to find a good, fair, nice mechanic shop. Well done! -Jason ( Escalade/Ford E-150). read more

Look no further. You want this guy as your mechanic. read more

Grease Monkey - Auto Repair Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Mike and Stephanie are the best! Run don't walk to get your car worked on there. You will thank me later.

Call a head for an appointment; his shop is busy and for a very good reason. 13 years he and his wife saw me through one divorce, 2 Hondas, 1 Toyota, 3 Chevys, 1 Audi, and a BMW. He is incredibly ethical, professional, and so reasonable in his pricing. He can work on anything and I trust my BMW that is still under factory warranty to the vintage Corvette that I owned. Example - Me: Does the Corvette need a new carburetor? Him: No, you need to just drive it more and I flushed it out. Me: Do I need a head gasket? Him: No, it's condensation, you need to drive it more. He could have robbed me blind on that car. I wish he did plumbing, electric and dry wall too. Please don't ever retire. read more

There is no better place in Las Vegas to have your automobile repaired!! I would pay whatever additional amount that AAA charges to have them take me to Dollar Automotive By the way they are a AAA recommended repair shop. I have used Dollar Automotive on East Tropicana for over 10 years, and I have told him many times that "Mike, you are way too honest to be in the Automotive Repair business Just go there once, and you will understand ....... read more

The check engine light came on my 2018 Toyota Corolla. I took it to several places to get it diagnosed and all three places were giving me a different diagnosis and charging me upwards of $1,000 to get it fixed. Thankfully a friend recommended Dolar's Automotive. The lady at the front was really friendly and professional. I dropped my car early in the morning and two hours later I received a call from Dola explaining the results of the diagnosis and the price of the repair (which was $290 with tax!). He took the time to explain in detail the results of the diagnosis and the repair. And they had my vehicle ready the same day! I'm glad that I found an automotive shop where the mechanics are knowledgeable, professional and overall honest. A shop that doesn't try to dry you clean when it comes to fixing your vehicle. If you are looking for a mechanic shop look no further Dolar's Automotive is the spot! read more

Dolar automotive is exactly the type of mechanic you want to have. The only downside is it can be hard to be seen right away. It been in business for years-and have thousands of raving fans and loyal customers. Dolar has been my mechanic for the last 2 years-and takes care of anything from simple oil changes and making sure my car is safe to drive to getting the brakes done and more extensive repairs. It makes it convenient that you can drop your car off anytime after hours and leave your keys in a lock box. Though call you the next day-and let you know what they recommend needs to be done and are always good on giving you an accurate time estimate on when you get your car back. As a single woman it's nice to know that I have a family owned, reliable and safe mechanic to take care of my car. Don't forget to say Hi to their adorable fluffball dog when you come in. And when I say fluffball, I actually mean a huge fluffball. A big dog lol. read more

If you don't take your car here, you're making a mistake. My family has been bribing our cars here for years, and we have always been treated with first class and honest service.

My daughters California car broke down on a fun trip to Las Vegas. It could have been really bad but the tow truck driver recommended Dolars automotive. They looked at the car first thing in the morning. I know it was bad when he called me first thing in the morning and I could hear it in his voice, the engine was seized. He told us to do our research with Kia recalls and take it to them, which we did. When we asked what the bill was he said nothing. I said excuse me, NOTHING? It was above and beyond customer service! He turned a horrible situation for an out of towner in desperate need into just a situation. I can't express enough how much you are appreciated from this family Dolar's. Thank you read more

I was referred to Dolar's by a client of mine and couldn't be more happy with the whole experience! Maybe it's Lexus brakes, maybe it's my driving (or braking), but for some reason I have to have my brakes done every year. The first time I had my regular mechanic at an Import place do the repair... it was almost $700 and was told it was because "Lexus parts are more expensive". Last June I had them done by a referral and it was $430....(with my car vibrating when I applied pressure to the brakes above 35mph - 5 short months later). I also had a screechy noise when I turned on the a/c and was told (by the same mechanic in June) I needed a new a/c compressor for $800 plus labor! Well, Dolar's fixed my brakes and told me my a/c compressor was fine...the belt just needed to be tightened! My total? A little over $200! He didn't even charge for tightening the a/c belt! I'm a fan for life! I love honest people! :) read more
