I went to RNR Tires for an alignment because my truck had a noticeable vibration while driving. I clearly explained the vibration issue. They diagnosed the problem as failed upper and lower ball joints, a right outer tie rod, and a steering gearbox, and quoted me $3,500—$1,500 in parts and 10 hours of labor. I declined the repair, purchased the parts myself, and completed the work on my own. The job took 4½ hours and cost $700 in parts. After completing the work, the vibration was still present, confirming their diagnosis was incorrect. I then took the truck to Carson Truck and Auto Repair, where they quickly identified the actual issue: a loose, wobbling carrier bearing on the driveshaft. They replaced it, the problem was immediately resolved, and the repair only cost a few hundred dollars. The truck now drives smoothly and no longer feels like it’s going to fall apart at highway speeds. This was a clear case of misdiagnosis and unnecessary upselling by RNR Tires. Thankfully, Carson Truck and Auto Repair is an honest, hardworking shop. I trust them completely and will not take my truck anywhere else. Thank you!!

Figured out what was wrong with our RV dash AC and solved the problem for us in under 24 hours. Very easy to work with. Even solved a problem with our tow.
View on GoogleI have an older rv that has needed work to get road ready, and projects that I have needed done right, and I searched the area for a place that had the crew I was looking for. I have been working with George and Lisa now for the last couple years and they have continued to go above and beyond to help make sure I have been happy and satisfied with all the projects I have had, including customizing my new fridge. George has done great work and Lisa has been super kind and accommodating. My daughter even has fun playing in the waiting room. Really grateful to have found my Rv repair shop! Worth the drive from north Tahoe.
View on GoogleWe cannot thank Carson Truck and Auto Repair for their quick and professional attention to our RV! We had an emergent issue and they were willing and able to fix it that day. Tech George was knowledgeable and thorough to find and fix our problems. Owner and staff were all very friendly. Highly recommend!!
