| - I drove to Las Vegas from LA last Friday with family. As I got to the Nevada State line, I got a warning message "Check engine oil at next re-fueling." I was a little worried because 1) It was the first time I had ever seen that message. 2) With the desert heat, I cringed at the thought of being stuck on the side of the road. 3) I had a car full of senior family members. So, I needed to figure out a plan. We were staying in Henderson, (I used to live there) so I checked in and started to look on Yelp for auto reviews. When I lived in Vegas, I drove a Ford and used to go to Ted Weins on Eastern. Now, with a 2008 Mercedes 300C, I prefer to go to specialists. I considered going to the dealership until I read the reviews on Yelp. Plus I didn't want to waste the entire Saturday waiting for my car to get fixed so I picked RG Motorworks based on their location and previous reviews.
They opened at 8:30a and I was there at 8:45a. There was one person there already waiting. I explained my story to Alicia at reception and she told me it would be no problem to get me in today. I chose to wait and me and my mom were thoroughly entertained by the David Foster concert DVD Alicia put in for us to watch. While we waited, others came in and out with scheduled appointments. Dropping off their keys and visiting with Alicia as if she were an old friend. You could feel the welcoming and warm vibe in the office. There are only a few seats for customers so most people seem to prefer to drop off their keys than wait. I started to worry as the first hour went by. I thought an oil change shouldn't take that long? At the hour 30 mark I was getting a bit restless so I asked the status. The mechanic came out and said everything looked fine. The oil had been changed and it was going through a computer system check. Around 11am, The David Foster concert DVD was coming to an end and my car was ready for a mere $97.
I gased up the car and went to pick up the rest of the family. We had a great time in Vegas. The drive back to Los Angeles was smooth sailing. So, I highly recommend RG Motorworks. They are honest, their pricing is reasonable, and they do great work.
