These guys are the best. I'm traveling the country right now and my brakes started overheating on me. I took my van to 3 other shops before top notch and no one could figure out why they were overheating. Frank took the time to properly diagnose the problem instead of throwing parts at it like the 3 shops before. And the office lady is such a good person and makes you feel welcomed.

The team of professionals at Top Notch are the BEST when it comes to troubleshooting, diagnosing, and repairing problems with diesel engines (trucks, RVs, large & small, you name it) as well as gas engines. I have taken two vehicles to them, a diesel pusher RV and a regular vehicle, both with multiple issues and both fixed to perfection!!!! Do not be intimidated by the look of the place, it is humble and focused on their mission of great service. I found this place through word of mouth from a friend that was equally impressed when he brought his DP RV to Top Notch. I can now confirm & validate that!!!! They even do body work - they really do it all. Because the shop also owns a trucking company the mechanics and staff are intimately aware of the driver's POV, they care A LOT about the quality work, and everyone in the team are polite, respectful, and detailed oriented - especially the front office. I was not asked to write this review, just compelled to do so because others in the area deserve to know!!! Top Notch is like a _haven_ for trucks, RVs, and cars, and a blessing for us who rely on those vehicles for our livelihood. Highly recommend to at least call Top Notch before making a choice for your vehicles!!!!

Dropped in late on a Saturday afternoon due to an unexpected oil leakage problem with my car and the crew at Top Notch Repairs did an amazing job fixing it. They were fast, friendly, and efficient and we were on our way in no time.

I got my water pump changed on my Chevy Equinox 2013, and let me just say the service was terrific. Not only was the secretary in the office super friendly and helpful, but the job was done well and in a timely manner. I 100% recommend this shop! It s Top Notch!!!!

I brought in my pickup it was all faded out. I brought it to Top Notch and they sanded the whole pickup, they polished the headlights so I can see. I also had my desoto done, tires and rims and they did an excellent job by not scratching either the wheels and or the car. They went over and beyond. Thank you Top Notch

I wish I could give a better review as I had them do a whole bunch of work on my deuce and a half, like 5 stacks load, but I just can t. I m noticing a whole bunch of corners were cut when it came to the installation of expensive parts w/labor along with my inspection from bumper to bumper, they missed what I (an amateur mechanic) could spot right away and never decided to bring it up to be fixed before I drove to Alaska. The front desk lady was AMAZING, the techs/mechanics, they cut corners. Airlines didn t get rubber grommets replaced and are rubbing air line on metal. Now leaving me stranded and needing a quick fix in Oregon. Which is pretty much impossible with this truck. Shocks & bushings are SHOT, along with 1 tie rod end with the other on its way out, but they didn t notice that some how and I did. Which I m now having to meet at a shop in Oregon to have replaced cause they probably won t survive the Alcan. Found an air leak in about the first 20 min of driving off the lot at the horn. Thankfully I could fix that myself. Mentioned I needed camper tie downs done 3-4 times, but when I picked it up, not done even though I was reassured multiple times it would be. Had to secure with heavy duty ratchet straps till I could find turn buckles and just do it myself. They also told me my heater worked in the inspection, well, the blower does, but not the actual temperature control knob, so idk how they came to that assumption. Again, will need to get that fixed at another shop before driving the alcan. Multiple axle seals are leaking and the front dust boot covers are torn to pieces, again, don t know how y all missed this stuff. It s like you didn t actually do an inspection or only looked around the outside for some reason I don t know where the communication was lacking that I needed this truck road worthy for a 5,000 mile road trip, but I m dealing with the consequences of your shops cut corners and blind eyes. Hopefully I ll be back on the road soon. If you go to this shop, they do great work, but do not leave the lot till you inspect everything they touched or said they would do. I wish I had. I could have been seriously injured or killed if these airlines failed and I didn t notice this corner cut cause these are the airlines to my steering. Thank goodness I did.

I recently purchased a 56 bel air and I was on the hunt to find pictures of the restoration. After a good amount of research I was able to track down the shop that had restored and painted my bel air. I got in touch with Val. She was able to track down the paint code for my car, and she also sent me a before picture of my car before it was painted. I was relieved to have found a before picture of my bel air because I want to be able to tell the history behind it.Top Notch Repairs did an immaculate job painting this car. The paint looks like it literally came out of the paint booth. Keep in mind, this car was painted back in 2014 and it shines up extremely well. I often get compliments on how nice the paint job is. Kudos to Top Notch!The undercarriage of the car was also done. Very nicely done undercoating. There were no corners cut on this car. I know this because I took a magnet and went through the entire car. Every inch of the body stuck to the magent. No BONDO! I m extremely happy with this car and the craftsmanship that went into it. We ll done Top Notch Repairs!

The biggest joke of people and a business, go somewhere else and you'll have an actual repair.We agreed to have a job done and these people didn't do anything they said and almost ruined our vehicle.When we went to them for help they were not available, they offered no help because we found out they used faulty parts in their repair!And a month later yet another part has failed on the repair we got form these jokers

If you are passing through Pahrump and need RV repair, don t stop here unless 1. You know exactly what s needed, 2. Can watch what is being done, 3. Know how much it should cost and can negotiate. Still wondering why work cost $700. What I requested was not transmitted to mechanic. On next visit, oil did get changed and new air filter put on, a steering damper was said to be put on (can t tell difference). I dropped the ball on this endeavor. The panel on inside didn t turn out well, even tho he only had to tack it up!

Wouldn't recommend horrible customer service, are and was told by receptionist who answers the phone "how can i help you" didnt adress the business name or nothing i second guessed who i called. and that they are NOT mobile mechanics as receptionist states, or they pick and choose when they are, mind you my car issue is a ignition an key issue.Horrible customer Service wouldn't use them in the future based just on this. I was hung up on when I asked to speak with someone else because she said it may be electrical, which it isn't. Then when I called back the staff was laughing as I answered. Disgusting.

Top Notch is the best place to go for repairs! My husband and I broke down in Death Valley and luckily we were towed by 2 Star Towing to you! We got there late that evening and Anna went out of her way to get us the help we needed. You got us back on the road the next day. Thank you so much!

We were on vacation and headed to Death Valley when my truck developed a diesel fuel leak, but we were able to cripple in to Pahrump in late afternoon. First place I called was Top Notch. They looked at my truck immediately but could not pinpoint the leak and it was too late in the day for proper diagnostics. So they offered us a place to park the truck/camper next to the shop, supplied us with clean water and an electrical hookup, all free of charge. The next morning, Frank was able to locate the leak on one of the lines between the fuel tank and the fuel pump, and replaced both fuel lines to be on the safe side. He completed the job by late morning for less than the estimate, and we were back on our way. The total cost was very reasonable. Frank was extremely knowledgeable about my truck and did a very professional job. The office staff is wonderful, friendly, and provided a complete estimate before repair work was initiated. This was a very happy ending to what could have been a disaster that ruined our vacation. Kudos to Top Notch. I just wish I lived near Pahrump so I could use them as my regular mechanics.

I've read the reviews both positive and negative. From my experience, the negative reviews must not be telling the whole story! I have never experienced a more up front, honest and trustworthy group of people in all my 71 years!!! No matter what your needs may be, everyone will work their hardest to make sure your are treated fairly and that you go away satisfied! I highly recommend Top Notch Repairs!!

These folks live up to their name. All the commercial truckers in their service bays are a good indicator that you've come to the right place. They take special interest in old cars, so you know your car will be respected. And yes, they will come to your house is the repair is one that most likely can be handled away from the shop. And if that turns out to be the case, no problem, because the truck is equipped for flat-bed towing.I called for "home visit" because I was pretty sure I had a short in the wires/cables attached to my battery. The technician arrived the same morning I called, and fixed my problem by replacing faulty (old, gunked up) wiring. The charge was reasonable considering I never had to bother with a tow. They told me upfront what the charge for the service call would be and that I would be charged for an hour of labor. A very small additional charge was then made for the actual nature of the repair. There was NO "diagnostic charge." I then took the car in a few days later for regular oil change and general inspection.They fixed, but did not charge me, for properly grounding an int

The nicest people I ve ever met at an auto repair facility! They gave me a killer deal on some body work and the repairs were truly professional. The over the road trucker was even kind enough to give me a ride home when I dropped my truck off! I highly recommend and will be using the for all my future projects. Thank you!

These folks are the real deal. Professional and reliable service. They truly are Top Notch. Our Motor home died in Death valley Ca and we had it towed to their facility for repairs. All work was done in a timely manner and at a fair price. The technicians and staff were courteous and knowledgeable .Valerie kept us informed throughout. Thanks again.

The wife and i broke down in death valley. Towed up to top notch. We arrived without warning @9pm. They had friendly understanding people there that let us in to drop off. In the morning they called with an estimate. When we arrived to pick up. The charge was less then originally stated. Very honest. Unfortunately the repair they made wasnt all of our problems. We were able to get back to them when they discovered a recall that we werent made aware of when we bought it. Since we already used our towing miles the tow company wanted 500$to get us back to vegas. The people at top notch said they would do it for 50$. Very good very helpful and very knowledgeable staff...

I'm guessing that they tried their best however, if they are unfamiliar with the classic vehicle that they are working on, then you sure are going to pay for their education to learn how to work on your car. And I mean hourly. The original quote that I received was pretty pricey but I figured it may be worth it to have my car running properly. By the time I received the vehicle the price had more than doubled and most of that was labor charges because they had to learn what to do to my vehicle. The car is still not drivable and I spent a small fortune that I really shouldn't have had to afford.

I didn t actually do business here, bit limped into town from Death Valley. We re these people were wonderful and willing to do what I wanted to help me out. We found a place a few miles away that had the part I needed and fixed it myself. Most times I find business will do what benefits them. I would go back there if I am in the area.

I would give this business zero stars if possible.In September 2020 Top Notch Repairs (TNR) agreed to install a used engine in my 1994 Holiday Rambler motorhome. I paid $3000 to start the process. Within a few days they informed me that that engine would not work. They offered a new engine with a three-year warranty for a total of $6250. I agreed. After many delays and problems, they had to get a third engine and it took about 51 days total. During that time I learned that it was not a new engine but a reman engine. TNR had falsely misrepresented. I picked my RV up on November 11, 2020 and paid my complete invoice. Within the first 150 miles driven, engine problems manifested. I also noted slippage of the transmission. A licensed mechanic in Las Vegas identified that TNR had not installed an EGR hose nor put in proper transmission fluid. Very soon the EGR valve collapsed. After TNR refused to correct the problems when I brought it to their attention in December 2020, my attorney sent them a letter in January 2021 asking for a refund. TNR then had their attorney send a letter threatening me to drop the issue or else they were going to go back and charge me more money on an invoice I had already paid in full. Further mechanical discovery included numerous vacuum hoses dangling not connected, five of the eight bolts holding the engine to the transmission were stripped requiring reboring, critically low transmission fluid (transmission began slipping and I installed a new one in March 2021.) Despite all the efforts of my Las Vegas mechanic, this engine from TNR will not crank as of today. And despite numerous contact with TNR asking them to honor my warranty, they continue to ignore me.I am a 71 year old female, Mother and grandmother, USAF veteran with a chronic disability. I live full-time in my motorhome on very little income. And, right now I can t even drive my motorhome out of the driveway because it won t crank.Service: Engine repair

The name says it all "Top Notch". We had some issues with our motorhome so made a call to Top Notch. They took us in immediately upon arrival, let us spend the night in their compound, and had us repaired by mid-morning. The owner and all the staff were pleasant and accommodating and friendly. A job well done with customer service obviously a priority. Thank you Top Notch.

As we were travelling home in our motorhome (diesel) from Arizona to BC, found we had an air leak in our suspension/brake system when we reached Pahrump. It was late on a Saturday night, so went in search of a repair shop in our car on a Sunday morning. Their was staff working on a Sunday at Top Notch Repairs. They were very friendly, and no problem booking an appt first thing Monday morning. Arrived at 9:30, diagnosed and in the shop by 10:00. Repairs done by 10:30. They checked to make sure everything else was working properly. Made it back to Canada with no other issues. All for $135 (labour and a few small parts). Friendly, efficient and professional staff, including the girls in the office. Would recommend them for diesel service.

I was looking for a place to detail my car and found Top Notch online in an app called Nextdoor.I spent the weekend away on an outing and had taken my cooler with me. While driving, I applied the brakes suddenly to avoid running a red light and in doing so my cooler tipped over which was full of water. It smelled a bit. After returning I took the vehicle over to Top Notch and they cleaned the outside and inside to make it look like new.I am very pleased.

My wife took our 04 Dodge 2500 5.9 to them last Friday after she said she heard something break while she was driving. They had it until today and the truck runs great again. She said the owners and staff were extremely helpful and I can t wait to meet them, which I will do soon. She also agreed that we would volunteer at the Pahrump Car Show October 6 & 7 at their shop.Edit: Went back this week and had the 5th wheel hitch and brake controller transferred to new truck. Again great service and half the cost as in Vegas.

Top Notch Will probably say I was not a customer, like they have to other truthful reviews. Good Sam towed me there 9-9-2918. It was worst repair experience of my life . Believe me I wish I was never a customer of theirs. Top Notch said I needed new engine. On 9-29-18 I picked up my rv ( new engine installed) it ran terrible, I took it back they said need new head as #4 cylinder had bad exhaust valve. Wife and I left there to be repaired, back home to Az, again. We never heard from them so, 10-11-18 called them, they said needed new replacement engine and would let us know when it came in and a time to pick it up. Called several time kept being told not ready and we should not be upset as they werent being paid to install 2nd engine, they should be ones upset with us? On 10-31-18 we finally got call saying rv ready. We could not pick it up till 11-5-18. Our rv was filthy inside and out carpet still wet from smearing grease around. I was going to complain about it but wife said not to (after 2 months and constant lies from them) she just wanted to get our rv away from them. So driving home to Az. engine light came on only 122 miles, we made it home called Top Notch no response.from them. I took it to local garage repaired in few hours. If anyone mentions Top Notch dont go there run the other way. worst 2 months of our lives. Also google the owners name Marcel Pontbriand You will be surprised at all you learn.John BBullhead City AZ

They were precise in the price up front and fixed the problems in alittle over an hour. We were impressedService: Transmission repairService: Transmission repair

I've come to this shop twice. The first time was to install exterior door handles. The second time was to have my power steering pump replaced, a new gear box, a power steering pump cooler, and lower ball joints. They have done a great job. I was without my truck for two days and they drove me to and from my house. I just put their work to the test by driving from Pahrump, NV to Cape May County, NJ pulling a 6'�12' Uhaul trailer. The truck handled the weather, tough road conditions and weight no matter what I needed to put it through without any issues. If I'm ever back in the area I will go to them again.
