What customers said about auto brake repair
DNA AutomotiveAntonio was super patient and helpful in diagnosing several issues with my truck. All good now - thanks! Dave
ComtiresGreat expertise and very knowledgeable….with great personal customer service and prices!. The shop is very accommodating and is ran very professionally . They have well trained certified techs and current with the latest technology with tools and software. I would definitely recommend my family and friends to Comtires if they need vehicle service.
Morisette Auto Repair -St Clair S…I had my car really checked over and already knew that I needed new brakes and suspected a few more things needed tending to.
Meineke Car Care CenterI can't say enough about the manager, Bill. He was upfront and honest with me about the repairs that were needed, what it would entail and the approximate cost up front. When he needed a certain part that was unavailable for 2 weeks, he went above and beyond to find the part, calling in favors at 4 different places…
Adirondack Tire & ServiceGirlfriend was in and out in less than an hour and a half for a full rear brake job! Fantastic!!! Highly recommend this place for ANY services you need!!
Leonardi AutomotiveAlways personable, friendly and reliable, Leonardi’s has been servicing my cars for years and offer great deals and fast service.
