I've had one encounter with Mercedes-Benz of Reno. It was pretty positive. I was calling to ask about an odometer repair, and the man I spoke to informed me that I could:

1. Buy a $1,000 repair part.

OR

2. Send my speedo to a shop in Palo Alto for which he gave me contact information.

I ended up using a speedometer shop in Reno.

Fletcher Jones is a ripoff artists hangout. Looks slick and has all the trappings of a high end dealer. However, charged $600 to change spark plugs in my ML320! Wanted to replace my power steering rack to the tune of $3000.00 when a fitting was loose and leaking (tightened the fitting and leak stopped....go figure!). Use Fletcher Jones dealership at your own risk and take plenty of vaseline with you!!!

Thumbs up Good MB shop in Las Vegas.....

I found a great new MB independent shop in Las Vegas. Their name is G&G ********. They have a very clean shop and have only been open about 4 months. They only do MB repair. The shop is owned by 2 very good MB certified technicians, Austin and Iram . Iram has been around quite a long time in Vegas doing only MB repair and Austin previously worked at the local MB dealer. I have been to them several times now and am quite happy with their service. Their number is 364-BENZ or 364-2369. They are very close to the corner of Decatur and Meadows. By the Meadows mall. Their address is 325 South Decatur Las Vegas, NV 89107. Being a new first time MB owner, I found out these guys will inspect your car (while you watch) and take you under the car and show you what they found. If you elect to do the work they offer free valet service and wash your car when the repairs are done. My experience is that they are quite honest and very resonable on their prices. Much better then dealer pricing. I have pretty high standards and I am quite picky with who I allow to touch my car. I do alot of my own work on my own vehicles, but when I can't I will be doing all my service with them. Try them out. Feel free to mention my name. Vinnie

Fletcher Jones IS a rip off!!!! Here's my sad story: Took my 92 500 SL in to ck for leaking fluids. They told me it was a leaking power steering hose and valve covers. it costs me almost 1000.00 to fix( ya right ) the problems. took the car home the leaks were back. took the car back and they told me i had a leak in the transmission and the pan was leaking. they wanted 1800 to fix those, i said kiss my A-- never went back. I will start talking to G&G as Vinnie noted above.

Nothing bad to say about Mercedes Benz of Reno
Never had any work done there
but the parts dept has delivered everything they have promised

Really good impression of Metric Motors in Reno on 4th st
I would give them a chance
I have been in there once, I was happy with the way I was treated

Fletcher Jones is an old line "Old Time" G.M. dealer...

'Been robbing people for over 25 years "And Proud of It!"

Never,Never,Never take anything MOTIVE there.

All the horror tales you've heard about auto dealers PALE in comparison!

MB Dealer in Hawaii is ALSO Fletcher Jones!

Thumbs down Fletcher Jones Victim.

Yes IT IS A MUST NOT GO dealer, even that new dealer in Henderson is fletcher Jones maskereding as competition ( how can you compete with yourself) thats how low they go making you believe is a different dealer yet is the same owner.
DO NOT TAKE YOUR VEHICLE to such low qualitiy excuse for a Mercedes Dealer, i rather take it to the less evil Purrrfect auto, Not that i am recomending those SOBs.
Best to go to G&G autohauzthey are good.....

Fletcher Jones is known throughout California as thieves. They make Bernie "Made Off" look like a choir boy.
