I didnt like that surfacing 4 break rotors cost about $250 but I even liked less that the person who worked on the car did not know how to push the rim covers, so I lost one probably in the first 5 minutes of driving.
This is the only place I will take my car! Even after moving an hour away, this is where I go, because the owner Joe is an honest mechanic! He will tell you if you can wait on replacing your brake pads. He told me on multiple occasions (with different cars) to just wait until my next oil change and well check them again!A good friend suggested American Brake and I can confirm that Joe and the staff at American Brake are the best!
Joe and his team are the best. I had an alternator die on me and they were there for me. Sorry, not there for me. Beyond there for me, and even got me back on the road within two hours. This place is a must. It is not just brakes, they can diagnose anything and i am forever grateful.JOE and the team it is always a pleasure.
Joe and his guys are the absolute best. They dont try to over sell, or sell you things that you dont need. They do the service you need at a very fair price. Ive been going to him for a couple years now and have never been disappointed. He stands behind his work and makes sure that the customer is satisfied. Ive recommended him to anyone that Ive known that needs a mechanic.
Not sure where to begin, but if you arent using Joe and his team for your car servicing youre missing out. I was referred to American Brake and will never go anywhere else. While I was going in for what I thought would be a quick fix, caused me to stay all day but Joe and the team were so welcoming and took phenomenal care of me while I waited. Thank you!
Knowledgeable Mechanics. Owner treats you like family. Honest pricing.
Joe and his employees are some of the most knowledgeable in Cobb county
Terrific...trust worthy...great service!
Highly professional, quality shop. Have had my brakes done there, and they do a fantastic job. Owner/management wants to take care of the customer, and they do just that. Its hard to find a shop that you can trust these days, but these are quality, trustworthy folks. Hoping to keep my 2012 Highlander running a long time (at 170k now), and these folks will help me do it. Thanks for continued great service!
This place is amazing as well they took my car and checked it over and said to bring it back if I heard any more noises absolutely wonderful π great customer service
They were very professional. They do their best to keep prices down and truly take care of their customers. They went above and beyond what I paid them to do. Their prices were better than everyone else in the area!!
I found these guys 7 years ago, no one has touched my vehicles since then. Joe and his staff are Aces! Plus, for east cobb.... he charges reasonable rates. He always calls and gives options and recommendations. You can trust these guys with not just brakes.... they can do about darn near everything (pretty sure he doesnt do paint jobs, lol) friendly service and reasonable rates.
Any issue they resolve perfectGreat service and better prices then other shops
It was my first time at ABS and I definitely willBe coming back if I have any other issues with my car. I highly recommend them. They specialize in brakes and give you a detailed explanation on what will be done on your car. They work with you and definitely cost effective. Joe helped me and I was provided great customer service. Thank you guys
Ive had bad luck with mechanics from overpricing to taking advantage of me as a woman. I found this place on Yelp and Google and I am so happy I did!!! Joe and the team displayed exemplary customer service. My brakes are working better than ever. They did not try to take advantage of me at all and they were very respectful. Also reasonably priced. I will be using them again should the need arise. Very happy with my service!
My whole family goes to joe. Great customer service and such kind people. Very fast, efficient and fair with pricing. 10/10
Took in my car to check out why the brake light was on, they brought me a bill over $1000 with extreme statements on how my brake system only had 2 weeks left before my entire car is going to be totalled and my air filter was the worst they have every seen, along with other random upsold items. The only reason the light was on was for the brake fluid. I would not trust this business to find an actual issue, they only made things up to run a ridiculous bill, $1000+ ? Seriously? Car is still running fine, btw.
Fish sandwich was good, service was great.
Great shop, good prices, fast and effective service for brake issues and full service for my Ford. Joe is great to work with and will always go out of his way to give you a great deal
Itβs such a relief to have a mechanic I can trust. As a female itβs difficult to find trustworthy places to take your vehicle. Joe is fast and honest and always has such professionalism I couldnβt imagine ever going elsewhere. Not to mention his prices are always accurate and fair. Joe is an all around great guy and pleasure to do business with. Iβve been taking vehicles here for years and highly recommend for any needs.
Found someone I can trust! My dealership told me I needed to replace a cylinder head in my engine ($3600), and replace my engine mounts ($1000) just to pass my emissions inspection on my 2006 H3. Five different friends urged me to call Joe for a second opinion. (It says a lot when all the people you trust point you in the same direction.)Joe worked to fit me into his schedule. He diagnosed a few simple problems and fixed my car right away. He communicated everything effectively and treated me fairly. His staff was great to work with. At the end of the day, I only paid $1400, and I get to keep the car that I love for a few more years.What I really liked about this experience was that I didnt feel I was being condescended to or taken advantage of (like at the dealership). Joe helped me understand which repairs were essential and which could wait. No sales pressure. No BS. Wish Id known about this shop years ago!
Seemingly honest, but I came only for brakes and they replaced my air filter without speaking with me first - forcing me to pay for a service I did not authorize. They took my car out for a test drive ALSO WITHOUT MY CONSENT. The guy that came out of my car left it reeking, and he didnβt wear gloves or a mask while in my car. He also left trash from the shop in my passenger seat. Absolutely disgusting.
Canβt thank Joe and the guys at American Brake enough . They have serviced my 4 cars for 15 years providing excellent service maintenance, troubleshooting, and great affordable pricing. I hate dealing with cars, but Joe and American Brake makes it a breeze! I recommend Joe and American Brake to anyone who wants honest, great car service at affordable prices .
I had my front brakes and rotors replaced yesterday and was blown away by the service I received. Taylor provided me with the information I needed to make an informed decision regarding my repairs. He was sure to inform me about a discount currently being offered on brake flushing. The service was prompt and reasonably priced. Both Taylor and Joe (the owner) were pleasant and professional. The 5-star reviews you see for this business are completely accurate.
Did a brake pad and rotor inspection, while i couldnt get the rotor replaced as i wasnt prepared to replace it, they let me think about it and get back when i have decided.They gave me a quote and also suggested they can install products that we buy on our own
The staff is awesome! Every time I take my Porsche to Joe and his crew. I have peace of mind... which is priceless. Great service fair price!
Joe was great, genuine, and honest! Thats hard to find in the car service business and I really appreciate it. The took great care of me and my car. I highly recommend them. Great guys to work with!!! Thank you!
Superb customer service and fair prices. I live in kennesaw but still make the drive even for an oil change. I never question anything Iβm told here which is quite a feat for me! He is able to give suggestions depending on what is needed and went so far as actually given me advice on purchasing my new car. Iβve never had a repair man that sat on the phone and feed me the questions to ask the sales person. Highly recommended!
Honesty is key for me when it comes to auto repairs. Joe and his staff are just that. Any repair work they can perform, I have them do it. When it comes to something they dont handle, I always go with their recommendations. Great service from honest people makesa great company.
Joe and his team are very experienced, friendly and fair. They tell you exactly what your cars problems might be in plain English, no technical jargon. When they fix something, it stays fixed. We have been using them for over 10 years and are very happy with their work. Also, in all that time, we have never been pressures into extra or unnecessary services.
Thorough professional service. Charges for parts are very reasonable. His crew went above and beyond by working after business hours to get my family on the road back to Houston after visiting for Holidays. Thanks!
American Brake does a great job taking care of their customers. Joe is excellent. I had a great experience working with American Brake.
Wow! I was quoted 3,000.00 from Honest 1 and I took my car to Joe and he was able to find a solution for $ 300.00! Super honest and knowledgeable! We love Joe and his crew.
Jo is our local go-to mechanic and hes really helped us out of a bind or two especially with my husbands work van. He also keeps our teenage daughters older vehicle up to speed and safe for traveling back and forth to college. The guys at American are warm, friendly and always helpful. Glad to have them here in the neighborhood!
Great service! Joe is the most honest mechanic u can find!!! Dealership gave me $2800 to fix my engine. Joe knocked it down to $200!!!!! Big hustle turned to be just a simple water pump sensor. Please give this establishment your car service needs! We need ppl like him to stay in business.
Amazing Service. Great Staff. What else do you need?
Joe helped us fix our AC for just a few hundred dollars (the dealer wanted $250 just to look at it and estimated over $2k to fix) and he machined the brake rotors for all 3 of my cars. I used to do all my work myself because its hard to find a shop I trust, but now I let Joe do all the hard work because his reputation is important to him. Now I have my Saturdays back and Im not turning wrenches all weekend!
Took our Mercedes in for new breaks and got them installed in a couple hours, for half the price the dealership was quoting. All manufacturer parts too. The owner Joe was very friendly and a straight shooter. If it doesnt need fixed, hell tell you the truth and wont take your money. Theres not many businesses out there anymore with the values and quality work that these guys provide. Definitely recommend taking any make or model of car to them!
Great customer service and pricing!!
Can I give 12 stars?! First I thought they were open till 6 but they close at 2 in Saturdays, and I arrived at 12:30 with grinding brakes that I was scared to drive a single mile more with. Rather than turn me away, the owner offered to get 2 employees to fix all 4 wheels before 2pm as long as he had the parts. They did so, and for a VERY reasonable price. The owner even offered me a slice of pizza the crew was having for lunch! I wish all business owners were like this. Fantastic experience, thank you so much American Brake!!
I took my daughters car in to get the brakes inspected because we were hearing noises. I expected to get the you need new breaks, or you need new rotors. However....I received a phone call from the manager and he told me all I needed was a brake fluid flush. I asked if I still needed to replace the pads and he said NO unless you just want to waste money. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HONESTY! It feels really good when you work with companies that have a high degree of integrity and honesty. I would definitely recommend American Brake Service in Marietta on Johnson Ferry Road.
As a woman its hard to find a reliable mechanic. Not only did they thoroughly explain my problem, help decide my most reliable and cheapest option, but also did a very prompt job! So pleased.
Trust these guys, as they are professionals who will consistently demonstrate their passion for taking care of your familys cars, as they have for mine. After just a few minutes talking with Joe, the owner, youll understand what Im talking about, as he and his team are simply terrific.
Joe and his crew did an awesome job on my car. Pricicing is great!! I highly recommend this shop. Ill be back π
I saw a good reviews and I trusted them. I didnβt do any home work, just went for fixing 2007 Odyssey brakes, he quated $720 only for rear wheel. Later on I have checked the parts rate in online, the complete brake set (pads, rotors with calipers for front & rear wheels) is $333 to $528. What he has fixed for me is one caliper two rotors and two pads for $720. For this price we can fix 4-wheels easy.
My mother took her 528i BMW because the brakes were squeaking and computer showed new brakes needed in 1000 miles.She was told she needed new brake pads and needed front rotors.A few weeks later, she noticed rust coming from wheels and her car was shaking. So she took the car to a certified BMW mechanic and he found all parts were not BMW and BMW parts are painted so they do not rust. This company sold my mom non BMW certified parts. And the work was not right and the car continues to shake.The BMW mechanic felt bad for my mom so he called American Brake Company to explain the issue and what they did wrong. The employee of Joe .. cussed the BMW mechanic and hung up. My mom is enroute to go back .. the phone call was on speaker phone the entire time so the conversation was heard by all .. including my motherAnd my mom is nervous about this ..I called Joe and he said she has warranty .. that maybe she hit a pot hole or got the rotors to open warm .. which I explained is not the case .. he could even check the mileage when she arrives. I asked him to take care of her and do the right thing .. says he would.If he does take of the issue I will update my review to reflect the same ..##### UPDATE: yes met with Joe and the brake and rotor work was performed once again. After the re work was performed, the car no longer shakes and appears to perform normally now. I assume the pads and rotors were swapped out .. really not sure. But he took the time to correct the issue, hopefully Joes customer service skills can be populated to all of his employees to share his same vision.
I dont write reviews often, but I just moved to the area and had an older car that needed some brake work. These guys did an awesome job for me and I have found my new mechanic.
Joe and his team always provide great service, fair prices and honest advice. Over the years he has continued to a trustworthy business owner. We wouldnt take our cars anywere else.
Knowledgeable staff
ABS is the place to take your car! Joe and his team are really knowledgeable, and helpful. I took my Mercedes E320 to them and they didnt stop working on it until they fully fixed the problem! These guys are family now!! Thanks again!!
Joe and his staff are unbelievable they are so friendly and honest and great work anyone need anything done to their car should go there they will not be disappointed!
Its okay but I feel like if a company make a mistake and then fix the problem they shouldnt be dishonest about it it kind of makes me not want to return
Ive been using American Brake and Foreign Car service for years to service all of our vehicles, including my Porsche. They do an amazing job, prices are reasonable and they are honest. They will never sell you something you dont need.
If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would! Joe is so honest and is quick! Ill never take my car anywhere else again!!!
Best place in town for car maintenance. Efficient and overly fair. Many experiences here - every project results in 5 Stars.
Our family has been taking our cars here since 2004. The service is high quality, affordable, and Joe is the best.
Honest and trustworthy, full of integrity and exceptional service.
Ive been coming to Joe for 10 years. I recently moved from E. Cobb to Woodstock, however, there is only one place I take my three vehicles to be serviced......American Brake. Keep up the great work Joe!
