Straightforward, excellent service, and honest communication. Took my car in for stuck brakes and faulty abs system and they were extremely helpful. Everyone was kind and it really made the process as stress-free as possible. I would highly recommend Gibbs for their quality in both customer and repair service.

They were really kind, offered me a complimentary ride home, and charged very affordable prices. The best part is that they fixed it in a few hours. I was so used to waiting a week for my car to be fixed that I didn't realize it wasn't normal. Ill be going back
