What customers said about vehicle safety inspection
Christian Brothers AutomotiveGreat place to go if you want to contribute to your car lasting for years! High quality service comes at a higher price but completely worth the investment! Mark treated me very well and am super thankful for this experience, will be coming back next time I need a fix!
Christian Brothers AutomotiveFirst time, and I was very pleased with hospitality and service. Now they have me as a consistent customer. Their service report is objective and very well reported with pictures, statements and links to deeper explanation online. At this time I highly recommend CB for you auto repairs with clear outcomes.
Christian Brothers AutomotiveReally great place - fast and quality work with good communication. Another place in town told me I needed to replace my ac compressor - an 800 dollar repair for my vehicle. Christian Brothers found the issue was just a faulty relay and fixed it for under 100 alongside other work and inspection.
