Customers hired 55 Auto & Truck Repair for 8 kinds of job. Pick one to see what they paid and said.
Took my 97 Yukon in for several issue’s that two other shops could not figure out ? James kept me informed me what he was finding every single day. He gave me direction on how he would proceed on fixing each issue, and had it back to me all fixed running like new and he smogged it for me. I would recommend them to…
Very good service. After receiving 3 quotes 55 came in under the others and with a quicker turnaround time. They kept their word and my car was pulled upfront and waiting for me when I arrived for pick up. AC broken in the Vegas summer was not fun. Feels great to be cool again.
James and 55 Auto Repair did a fantastic job with a major repairi of our Pacifica. It is always a difficult decision to find a mechanic you can trust. I now trust James. He is very competent and his prices are fair and honest. John L. North Las Vegas
I was referred to James by Crystal who works at Friendly Ford. I called for an estimate, she said they don't that kind of work(A redo on my AC), this was Thursday the 27 of June. So I called James, told him who referred me to him. I told him about my issue, 20mins later he emailed me with a price for what I wanted…
Hard to find a great owner with great employees. I moved from a different state and finding a trustworthy mechanic is probably the hardest thing to find, so if you're in the same boat as me? Let James and his crew take care of you! If you're a local in Vegas and need a shop to give you great pricing, service, and quality work head to 55 Auto!
HONEST. FORTHRIGHT. This shop was recommended when I couldn't get a proper estimate elsewhere. I met the owner and felt comfortable - he speaks clear and unrushed. Communicative and responsive. My vehicle is an ongoing project. I am happy I found this shop and will continue to use them every time.

I was referred to James by Crystal who works at Friendly Ford. I called for an estimate, she said they don't that kind of work(A redo on my AC), this was Thursday the 27 of June. So I called James, told him who referred me to him. I told him about my issue, 20mins later he emailed me with a price for what I wanted done, called him back and brought my truck to him on Friday. He called me the same day around 5pm. it was done. Got there explained what he did and that there was another problem concerning my AC. He fixed it and didn't charge me. 110% Recommendation, his price was reasonable compared to the estimates I got. He'll be seeing me when needed. Thanks again James/55.

James always goes the extra mile for our work van. The only mechanic we trust.

Best mechanic in town thanks James!!!
I had a great experience with 55 Auto. They fixed the A/C in our car quickly and at a very reasonable price. After getting quotes from other places, we were pleasantly surprised by how affordable their service was. The staff was friendly, honest, and took the time to explain the issue and the repair process. Our A/C is now working perfectly, and the whole experience was hassle-free. It's hard to find a shop that combines quality work, fair pricing, and great customer service, but this place definitely does. I highly recommend them to anyone needing auto repairs or A/C service.
