I have been searching for an honest automotive business in Reno for years and have finally found it. Everyone here was so kind, patient, understanding, and went above and beyond to help me out. I won’t be taking my car anywhere else!

What a relief to receive actual customer service for a change! Had a great experience at Roy Foster's Automotive. They were friendly, attentive, helpful & quick. Dropped off my truck as a walk-in (no appointment) at 10am & it was finished by 4pm. Great service, very fair pricing unlike some other very large Ford dealers that may be located on S. Virginia in Reno. I plan on telling any of my friends who may need a mechanic about this shop.
Bravo!
Mike and his group were awesome and I would recommend anyone to use their services. Was not overcharged like other shops in town.

We recently started using Roy Foster's for our fleet vehicles and they have done a great job on each of our vehicles. The staff is really informative and ensures we understand all work that needs to be preformed on our vehicles. We primarily have worked with Mike, upfront, and Brandon, the tech, and we haven't been disappointed with their work and highly recommend going here for any of your car needs!

Came in with no appointment from out of town. Got a ton of work done along with full diagnostics. Can't say they are the cheapest but that is not always what I look for. I did get thorough and conscientious work done to a vehicle that I depend on for long road trips. I was in town for a medical appointment and they provided Lyft rides to and from the service center free of charge. Very nice touch.

I came in because I have an oil leak. Have. Immediately “it’s going to be $230 something to put the UV stuff in the car to find the leak.” I mean if it’s that sure of a test, okay that’s fine… Tell me why I paid $260 for “possibly” and no UV test because it was just so obvious where the leak was that it didn’t need the test… but there’s no definitive answer but three possibilities that will cost me $680 something more quite possibly. But my complimentary inspection of the rest of my car… told me I needed to get new wiper blades… I got them two weeks ago and it’s literally my dirty windshield.

We're sorry to hear you left feeling frustrated and without clear answers. The diagnostic charge was for our technician's time to inspect and locate the oil leak, rather than specifically for a UV test. During the inspection, we found multiple areas of concern, including the oil filter, valve cover gasket, and oil pan gasket. Because oil had spread throughout the engine, we recommended addressing the identified leaks, cleaning the area, and rechecking to make sure nothing was missed. We apologize if this process and our recommendations weren't clearly explained. We also appreciate your feedback about the wiper blades and understand your frustration. We never want you to leave feeling confused about the service you received, and we'd welcome the opportunity to discuss your concerns further.
Roy Foster Automotive has been taking care of my vehicles for several years. They are very courteous and professional. Would recommend them to anyone.
