Blazing Wrenches

My wife’s car was overheating and could not find the problem, I check a few places around and have always seen Blazing Wrenches every time I go down Glendale. Since I did not have a regular mechanic I gave them a try. I took my car in around 10:30Am and got a call almost an hour later saying that it was fixed. It was fixed quicker than I thought and also the cost was a lot less that I thought.
I now have a place to take all my cars.

These guys are legit! Fair prices and excellent workmanship. Glenn and Frank made everything very clear and straightforward while also being friendly. I’m a lifer now at blazing wrenches! They seem to be able to do ANYTHING!

There is nothing bad to say about this shop, I will not go to another one while I live in Reno. I have had them put a new carburetor, clutch assembly, flywheel, and numerous other parts on my 84 Jeep. They always show you the broken parts when you come to pick up your vehicle and never charge you for bogus work that you don’t need or sandbag the job! Glen and Frank are always very friendly and answer any questions I had about my car too! I recommend them to anybody I come across that need work done!

Not a good experience. The garage looks like a cave/​dump, dirty and unkept and security of your vehicle is weak if left outside; it’s an industrial area. The quality of the mechanics is questionable; they really aren’t mechanics and hardly qualify as «parts changers». I had them install a transmission per estimate and was overcharged nearly $ 300.00. Next, I find a weird noise from the flywheel area and a major Rear Engine seal leak. It was not leaking before they worked on it and I suspect they damaged the rear seal when installing the flywheel on the end of the crankshaft.
When I questioned them about their work, they became very defensive and denied they did anything that may have caused the leak. You would think paying $ 90 per hour for labor would you would get good results; not so.
I would not recommend this garage to anyone. If you’re going to pay that much per hour, take it somewhere where it is clean and you aren’t treated like a jerk just because you question the quality of their work. They said I needed to work on my relationship with them. I don’t want a relationship with them, what I wanted was good reliable mechanic work and I did not get it. I’m not their friend, i WAS a customer but never again. They are bad news.

I so wanted to be able to give an overall 5 star rating and I told them that when I first contacted them. I will give them 5 stars for friendliness and fairness. I contacted Blazing Wrenches on a Friday morning on the recommendation of my son-​in-​law when the transmission went out on my van. I was told they would have it back to me in a week. The next Friday it wasn’t ready and I was told it would be another few days…-½ star. I picked the car up on Tuesday and it seemed to run just fine. Thursday night I left work at 6:30pm and my car wouldn’t start. I thought it might be the battery but it wouldn’t start after my son-​in-​law tried to jump it. He found that the emissions hose was hanging loose and once he connected it to the starter, it started right up. I took the car in the next day and they fixed it…-½ star. Then I started seeing leaks on my garage floor and took it in. Transmission fluid was leaking around a bolt so they put some silicone on the bolt to stop the leak…-½ star. I started hearing a roaring noise that came and went for no apparent reason. Took it in again and they found a loose bolt…-½ star. I think that after 3 weeks and 4 visits everything is working as it should.

So… my mother took her 93 toyota camry to get some engine work done. when they picked up the car my step dad told her none of the lights worked. so this morning we took it back and the mechanic started yelling at my mom and telling her he didn’t do sh#! To her car she must of done something and he refused to fix it. after spending 1400 dollars you would think that they would appreciate their customers. i would not recommend this place to my worst enemy. besides the fact that their customer service skills suck. save your money and go somewhere better because ull come here with one problem and leave with another and they will b rude and refuse to fix it so save your time energy and money. i will not be recommending them to anyone and my friends and family that do come here i will make sure to spread it throughout that this place sucks

Always fair, friendly, and helpful. :)
Never try to over charge or push work I don’t need, which in my experience as a not-​so-​car-​savvy female, I’ve encountered.

A little slow in getting vehicle repaired and redone. Worked out ok in the end.
