Honesty! Thats why you want to go here! My mothers brakes were making a grinding sound. I thought all four brake pads in all four rotors needed to be replaced. When I called them, they told me if I bring it in right away, I may not need rotors. That statement right there is what brought me in. They tried to save me money before I even went in. Unfortunately, it was too late for the rotors. Which is fine. She shouldnt have been driving like that for so long. Her fault not theirs. They could have just replaced all the rotors, and told me that they had to be done. They didnt though. They only replaced the front ones, because they said the back ones were fine. This just proves that this is a good shop! Next time I need my brakes done, Im coming here, and Im recommending them to literally everyone I know!
I had a Terrible problem w shaking in my front end needed... front tires, tie rod end and a control arm... They took good care of me. Reasonably priced, honest service and done in a timely manner... Highly recommended
My brake lines dumped everything out of the master cylinder. Got my car towed in and was called with follow up throughout repairs. They fixed it quickly (24 feet of new brake lines on my 17 year old car), including a dodgy fuel filter I was aware was a problem. Didnt try to sell me services I didnt need and I will happily go back and recommend them to others.
I was just switching summer wheels to winter. The guys got me in the bay within 15mins and the price was the cheapest.
They got me in quickly. Diagnosed the problem and had the repairs done in a reasonable amount of time. I would recommend them.
Was provided great and timely service. I came in last minute for low brake fluid and brakes were grinding. Next day brakes were fixed and I was on my way. Price was reasonable as well!
Seemed like a okay place was open for business when I went but was a little pricey just went there to check on the price of brakes
Had them check my brakes. Thought I heard some noises. When they were done they found nothing more than some rust. And I left without having any cost. I was here last year for them to check the brakes. Ill be coming back next year.
Excellent! Friendly, honest, fair and fast. Needed some essential brake line replacements done and had the car back the same day. Highly recommended!UPDATE: Just had more work done...exhaust, oil pan and tune up. ALL work done fast, friendly and fair. Highly recommended...and not just for brakes!
Great service great guys best prices.
Excellent customer service very responsive Great prices always takes care of the customer Highly recommended wouldnt go anywhere else
Service was amazing & fairly priced. I would recommend them & will return for any brake needs in the future.
Ty so much for fixing my truck
I wont let anyone else touch my truck.Quick, honest and professional; cant ask for anything else in a mech shop.
Brought my vehicle in to them in June (2020) because brakes were grinding. They supposedly replaced the front brake pads, never inspected the rear brakes. Over phone said the estimate would be 100 less than what I paid at check out. Okay fine, but now it is sitting at firestone, and needs front and back brakes just 3 months later. That is going to cost me almost $700 for new brakes on front and back, due to the brake shop, not inspecting the front and back to make sure it i didnt need back brakes as well. They talk a good game and are friendly as can be to gain your trust, and now I am having to pay a second time for new brakes in just 3 months. I would not recommend a child bringing a bicycle to these guys to fix.
Absolutely love the people here and the service they provide. Everyone is so knowledgeable and genuine, definitely make you feel like family.
Best Hamburger in town 🤑🏌🙃
The Brake Shop did a fantastic job on my Truck, doing involved repair that other shops had refused. The work was done quickly, with as much cost effectiveness as could be achieved. Also there was communication about the progress of my vehicle at every step of the repair process. The transparency and explanation of the work performed is outstanding. I also believe that they went above and beyond in areas where they did not have to. I am very impressed, am confident in the work quality and would recommend this location.
Con sales prices way to high riping off old people beware.bid on braked 7 times higher than competition. Dont be fooled im real it gets seniors 2stay away
Went in on a Saturday at noon to get a quote for brakes on a 2013 Ford Taurus. I was given a quote after they showed me exactly what needed to be fixed. They were able to get the work done the same day by 3pm. Very customer oriented and thorough! I would recommend this place to family and friends. Its nice to have customer service still mean something in the times we live. Thanks!!
Went to The Brake Shop this morning to get a second quote on some rear brake replacements. The owner was very knowledgeable and gave me a fair price. His mechanic, John, did an amazing job cleaning and installing the new rear brake kit. No more noise or grinding. My new favorite shop.
I was very impressed with the manner they comply with. Fast, friendly and reasonably priced. Their knowledge and patience to explain your initial problem without adding unnecessary additional solutions. I certainly will spread the word to family and friends. An honest mechanic does exist!.
Gary was extremely helpful and squeezed me in for some last minute repairs that I needed done ASAP! He also did everything he could to work with me on the cost as I was not able to afford much at the time. I will be recommending them to friends and family and I plan on using them again in the future!
Very genuine and honest mechanics that I would highly recommend. They make you feel comfortable and provide top notch service with a smile. They offer free rides home for customers while they are working on your vehicle, which is an added bonus. I will definitely be going back here for future repairs.
We needed to do the back brakes and one rotor for returning a lease vehicle. We got a good price and was done very fast, it was completed in half a day and did not have to wait for a long time. Dropped the car in the morning and got the call midday that the car was ready to be picked up.
Great Place Check Them Out & See For Yourself
The people at the brake shop was very caring and professional with me. I left the shop a very satisfied person .They did a great job, my car driver so smooth.It feel like Im driving a luxury car.He even show my my old parts and explain services he provided. The shop accept cash, credit cards, and has easy pay finance which is very helpful to me since Im a part time worker.
I have a few things done to a few of my vehicles and will continue to bring them to The Brake Shop. These guys are fast and always explain to every detail what needs to be done and dont try to upsell you something you dont need. If youre looking for honest mechanics, go here! These guys are great.
This was my first trip to this repair facility. The people here are very friendly and will take the time to explain what needs to be done. I like that. I had my 07 Taurus brake lines repaired and a couple of other issues that they saw needed to be fixed (and yes, they actually did need to be fixed). These guys are honest. They didn’t do any repairs without asking me first and they even asked me if I wanted my old parts back. That is very rare. The prices are reasonable and they even called me to follow up on my visit with them. I’ve already given 2 referrals to friends for this place and so would recommend them and tbh I don’t think I’ve ever given any mechanic a 5 star rating and you don’t find very many mechanics that are on the level. Thank you Brake Shop of Taylor 👍
There was only 1 tech available but he was awesome. he showed and explained everything he was doing in great detail. the price was reasonable. would def recommend this shop to anyone i know and i will go back myself for future service :)
Very helpful and quick. I’ve had to take my car in quite a bit recently and this last time around they covered the bill since I’m a loyal customer. Great customer service!
I was visiting my hometown of Taylor and had just drove in from NJ. I thought that I had a brake leak issue but instead it was a transmission cooling failure (all trans fluid had leaked out). I found the Brake Shop on line, saw the reviews and decided to give them a try. I was given a complete hands-on, detailed inspection of the issue, followed up with a review of new parts and labor cost. In addition, I received update phone calls on the work progress. When I picked up my vehicle there was a price adjustment made to some parts and I paid less then quoted!!!! So nice to see honesty on display and I was treated with great professionalism; thank you for the great service and I would recommend the Brake Shop. ed
They were very informative. Told me the issues, then showed me pictures, then showed me the actual old parts and pointed out the issues in person. They even informed me that my vehicle had a recall and printed up the information for me. They also offer a free shuttle service. I’ll be coming back.
GENIUS MECHANIC! THANK YOU FOR THE HONEST AND GREAT WORK! HONEST AND WONDERFUL PRICE ON ALL REPAIRS! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE BRAKE SHOP OF TAYLOR!!!
I dont know a thing about cars or brakes or anything mechanical and because I was told that I needed brakes these guys could have took me for a ride, but they didnt. Many people in their line of business would have, but they were very honest. Not only were they honest, they also gave me a lesson by showing me exactly why I did not need brakes. Romelo has instantly become my friend and his staff as well. A thousand times thank you for saving me hundreds today. I dont care if I move to Clinton Township Michigan I will be driving my car all the way over here to get the services that this company provides.
They where a great help and didnt charge me anything. They showed me that they couldnt do the wheel alignment because there was no adjustment for the rear. Will us them again on the other 4 vehicles that we have.
They are honest and I can trust them. Today I took my car in I heard my brakes squeaking.I thought needed rear brake pads. After they checked it they said my car was fine and dont need to replace pads until next year. did not charge me any.
LOVE THEM! And if the gentleman who tends the front wasnt minding his calories, I would bake them a pie! Another place in Taylor gave me an outrageous quote for brakes w/ rotors. The Brake Shop reeled in the price. They walk you through everything. He takes such pride in his work! So much so, I rather felt bad: Im not too savvy with car mechanics, so it was rather like an oil painter presenting his masterpiece to a blind person. Their prices are more than reasonable, quick service, wonderful to do business with -- and both gentlemen had a lovely sense of humor. They have a loyal customer in me now!
I came into the brake shop on a whim for a brake repair and a tune up. After inspecting and diagnosing my car the mechanic thoroughly explained and showed me everything he found and was able to then accurately describe the reasoning for recommendations on the needed repairs. The pricing was also explained in detail to remove any doubts about fairness. The work was completed in a short time and I was on my way. I will be coming back to The Brake Shop for all my auto repairs. A++++!!
Very honest, I have taken my cars for many years to this place, fast work within reason.
Worked on my 2008 Yukon Denali. They were fast, friendly, and reasonable priced. Really went above and beyond!
Had brake work done on my sons dodge caliber they were able to get it right in. Even saved the old parts to show what was wrong. Everyone there was very polite. Would highly recommend them.
Gary and Romelo were fantastic and thorough, very gracious with their customer service! Very, very well priced and the work was done on the estimated time that was promised! Mary and I will be going back again and again to have our vehicle serviced!
Excellent work, honest people and they will not rip you off
The manager and owner are very helpful amd worked things out so I could get repairs that needed done with the budget I had.
Where do I begin? I was looking to get new brake pads and rotors and was expecting to pay $260 upward to get my vehicle back to being safe. But because of the transparency and honesty of Romelo and his other mechanic on his team. I walked out not needing new brakes OR rotors! Just a small minor adjustment to the rear brakes! Thats awesome to a person who has been searching for a mechanic who will be that transparent AND HONEST to boot! Definitely recommend them and they have won a repeat customer!Thank you Romelo and to the other mechanic :)
Good people friendly My Car Had Crank No Start They Found The Problem Quickly & Had Is Fixed In No Time Id Highly Recommend Anyone To Go Here.
They were extremely knowledgeable and patient. They thoroughly explained the problem and all options to repair the problem. I had my vehicle back in a couple of days running like new again. I will definitely be back!
Took my car in to get a second opinion on brakes. I was told from another shop that I needed brakes and they were at the minimum. Come to find out from the brake shop that I didnt need brakes yet and they were not at the minimum either. He even showed me how they are measuredI will be taking my car back. They couldve easily just said that I needed brakes also, but they didnt. They were honest and told me it was my choice if I wanted to do them know or wait.
I left firestone up the street on Allen road because they said that they couldn’t get the caliber off my front right side brake which sounded odd especially when they quoted me one price and then tried to quote another so I left and came to the brake shop and they basically said they lied and showed me what really needed to be done for a real good price I recommend these guys to anyone who needs brakes or any other done to there car
Great customer service, quality work in a timely manner. Wonderful!
Did a great job on my brakes and rotors, very quick and good to work with.
Could not start my car. Did the job fast and for a good price. I would go back.
These guys do good work, plus they are honest with you about what you need and dont need.
Dont let anyone steer you wrong this place hokked it up. I may have had to buy a new hydroboost, but they made sure my truck was good to go.This place is fair with price and will tell you how it is. Straight to the point.
Over a three to four year span I spent money on numerous wheels, rotating and balancing the tires, and alignments trying to find why my car had a slight shake. After a while, I gave up looking for the reason and just lived with it. Took it to The Brake Shop to have my brakes checked for an upcoming trip and mentioned the shake. They found that my rear passenger side wheel bearing was loose. Not only did they find it, they showed me the problem as well. The other Big Tire place never found this!!Now, my car rides as smooth as it did when I got it!! You can trust them to do the job right!!!
I dont even know where to begin... Seriously folks!Ok, so...They came to the rescue for my MOTHERS truck, in a big way. Dont get me wrong I know its a business and they have to make money in order to stay open. So I dont expect anything for free... When it comes to the work and parts. But the things you dont get anymore are priceless, things such as truly honest customer care. Truly, fair, honest pricing. Her car headset for years causing it to rust way more than it should have for its year. This caused all of the work that they had to do to take twice as long and twice as much effort. I know this because Ive wrenched a few times in my life.. every nut and bolt had to be either caught or torched off nothing came easy with this job. Romello kindly invited me in the back to show me what he was up against and pointed out the things that should be a concern in the not so immediate future. And he could have easily told me this needed to be done right now. Even though his team spent twice as long and twice as much effort doing the job he still stuck to the original price he gave me under the assumption that everything would come off and go back on as it should. 8 out of 10 people would have told me; unfortunately I had to do this this this and that therefore Im going to have to charge you more because of itNot these guys! I will go out of my way to refer them to anyone I come in contact with in need of a good mechanic. And I also feel like I made a friend, and at my age...42, we just dont have time for many new friends but that person went above and beyond for me and my mother and that is what friends do!They didnt just do a brake job they did her entire front end they made the impossible possible most places would have gave up. Bell tire told my mother to scrap the car and that they wouldnt touch it. If there was a such thing as a sixth star they would get it.
1st time customer, like how they explained what I needed and not try to over sale me, like other name brand brake shops, great service and great prices.
I would like to start by saying The brake shop of Taylor goes above and beyond to provide customer satisfaction with the service they provide. Ive taken my car to a different location in redford to have both rear calipers, all four brake pads, front right axle, thermostat, catalytic converter, and driverside headlight replaced, all in total with towing and missing work it had cost me about $2,800 and it had really put me in a bind for a car 10yrs old... Pretty much Ive been played and lied to end up paying for a thermostat and catalytic converter that I did not need. Well, soon after my repairs my car broke down due to problems with the axle and the shop in redford refused to take responsibility and instead billed me for the towing. After the 2nd axle my car was operatable but begin to send error messages by indicating warning lights to the dashboard. All at once the brake, abs, and traction lights came on, and I happened to be driving pass The brake shop of Taylor and decided to get a 2nd opinion from a different shop as my previous shop has lost my trust. On a Thursday The brake shop of Taylor had me scheduled to bring my car in for an inspection and diagnosis on Monday as my work schedule made it impossible for me to get my car to them any sooner, and the very next day on a Friday my job had shut down due to high winds and power shortage, Ive called The brake shop to see if they could possibly squeeze me in and express my concerns with the safety of my vehicle, unfortunately they were booked for the day and told me to stay off the road til they examine my car and asked for my number and promise to give me a call if an opening appears. Soon after Gary at the front desk gave me a call and told me to go ahead and bring my car in, and so I did. Mr mechanic in the back I cant remember his name.. very kind guy inspected my vehicle took about 30minutes and then Gary walked me into the bay to show me what they have found. Well, the calipers Ive had installed at a previous shop were from a junkyard and it had been spray painted to make it look new and were leaking brake fluids, my front brakes were in horrible condition, theyve reused the same rusted pins and did a poor job. The brake shop of Taylor walked me through all of their findings instead of just billing me up for an estimate, they even went as far as explaining how each parts of the brake system is suppose to function, and after hearing my story of all the work Ive gotten done recently they suggest I call the previous mechanic shop and to see what can I get resolved as those faulty parts were still under warranty. These guys are very honest, and professional and I can tell they take their job and customers safety serious. They arent out here like many other shops just looking to rip people off and to take advantage of hard work individuals trying to make their ends meet, once again the employees of The brake shop did not have to go as far as they did to explain all the problems my vehicle was having and suggest what I should do to save some money instead of getting it all done again with them, they couldve just billed me for an estimate but they didnt play me and were sincerely concerned and willing to help. I end up taking my car back to the previous shop and confronted them with this new information I had on my car. The previous shop end up replacing all my parts, and fixing the leak and all for free, thanks to the honest employees at The brake shop of Taylor. I will be keeping these guys in my back pocket for any future car problems and will always recommend these guys to friends and family having car issues. I did have to pay an inspection fee of course but not a diagnosis fee for the abs code reader, these guys were genuinely concerned and wanted to help. Thank you.
Would like for them to answer their phones...
Theyve done great work on my Kia. 18 year old and still running like a tank.
Took my truck in for a brake job. When I got it back, I had less pedal than before I took it in. Took it to another facility and they said the calipers were incorrectly installed, and something in the rear was not connected. They fixed the problem for about half of what the brake shop charged me. Cant say whos right or wrong, but I got plenty of pedal now. Wont go back there.
Good work nice price and done in a timely fashion.
DO NOT GO HERE, I WOULD GIVE NO STARS BUT IT WANT LET ME!!! Had a diagnostic test done for $100. I was told nothing was wrong with my car, until I returned and started pointing out the problems that I complained about in the 1st place. Then I was told well they misunderstood the complaint.. then I was told that its not that bad to wait until a light come on and then bring it back.. I thought the purpose was to catch the problem before it became a major problem.. I like helping out family owned businesses but this one is a ripoff.. I basically gave them $100 for nothing... I guess Im more upset with myself.. when I arrived by the look of the place I almost didnt leave my car but I know something is wrong and figured need to get it done, better safe than sorry.. I should have followed my first thoughts...Update...How you respond to reviews speak a lot about your character. I know people that I have gone to your shop and the service was fine, they did only come to you for brakes, which may be the issue. For me it was not. I did not need a diagnostic test for my complaint. The idling was not the major complaint. (It was the noise the car made which masked the idling. Once the noise was fixed the idling went to normal.) That was my problem with your service. They told me nothing was wrong with my car until I got there and pointed out the problem and they responded... oooooh... I was charged for a service I never needed and then they kept trying to explain themselves and told me to come back if a light come on, which you should try to fix the problem before it become a major problem. But thats ok, I took my vehicle to BelleTire whom identified the problem and repaired it right away. And it was a gasket on the exhaust.but may God bless you and your business.. like I said some people you do great for, I was recommended by one of your customers but you did not do great for me. Instead of trying to respond in such a nasty way to post that dont like your service, try to find a resolution. Respond and thank those that like your service as well. As a business owner you should know better..
1st time customer, good work, fair price and done on time.
They will come to pick you up if you need them too...And they do Grear Work
I went to the brake shop for the 1st time today and they did my brakes for a great price they where friendly and affordable i found my new place to go anytime i need my breaks done 😁
Fantastic service from honest people in and out with a more than fair price on break repairs
I believe they charged to much for wifes brake job
New edit- Took these guy to court and won, you can too👌👍😆Rip people off!! THE TRUTH!!🚫They told me it was going to be forty something dollars to change a couple things on my car. The next day the call me and say they are going to need to charge me another five hundred and something dollars on top of the four hundred and seventy one dollars and some change that I already agreed to pay. I talked to who Gary on the phone. He is responsible. His Boss Romelo(however you spell his name) I am taking to court. This business SUCKS!! Ill never go to any business that this man ownes again! Im considering having a friend of mine shut down the whole shop because this man is wasting my time in court as well as actual court themselves! I was going to just take my truck from them but all the people I spoke with said that was a bad idea at the time. I end up calling a few lawyers and one told me if I am in the right to just pay it off and get my money back later. So I paid it off and somewhat am in need of this money. I have had offers to go on Judge Mathis, Judy, etc. And he wont go on the show because he knows he is wrong! I will not let people get away with this type of behavior period!! I have been taking advantage of on petty things in the past all to much and this WILL NOT BE something that gets past me! I tried being nice and Frank with Romelo who sais he wasnt born in this country and according to Gary has several other businesses that have closed down. My other mechanic I go to said this man is a crook!! He sais guys like this open up shops, rip a bunch of people off until they get caught and then they move on to the next shop. It looks like this is what indeed is taking place!I could go on and on detail for detail on how much stress this has caused me. Im considering suing him for more sense he wants to behave like such..May Justice be served and may you never have to deal with a person like this as long AS YOU LIVE!! ✌✊
Not bad, a little pricey but they get the job done. Highly recommend though.
Honesty and integrity are two words that come to mind.
Good prices and very honest, they will save you money with their honesty compared to other mechanics, they care too, and always do a good job.
Horrible place!!!!! my husband took my hhr there for new brakes.....after all the extras the scammed cost me $500......three weeks later the front brakes are rubbing and the back brakes are squealing horribly. Took back, said the fixed it.....two weeks later and my brakes are doing the same thing and now my tired locked up to where i cant even drive my car....dont waste your money!!!! it will cost you alot more in the long run, go to someone who knows what they are doing!!!
Great work highly recommended
Good place but prices are high
I put new brakes on my now totaled car.
Ok
The best.
Stay away
