They replaced my brakes for $695.27 (two front rotors and two front brakes) and lost my hubcap. I have been to the shop and called to let them know. They admitted that they had 3 other peoples hubcaps but had thrown mine out. Now they will not take my calls or emails. Manager Steven Frazee lied to me and said he would get a hubcap. After the $695 for brakes I think it is least he could do. I am now a 3 hubcap lady and not happy.

Great place to get your car inspection for Uber . Youll have to bring your own inspection form with you though . I had to make an appointment at the location I chose . Im not sure if all locations require appointments youll have to call .

Brought my truck into Brake Max for a wheel alignment. My truck was pulling to the left after my wife had been using it for a year. I thought she had regularly hit curbs and drove directly into road hazards. So I believed an alignment was necessary.I had an appointment at Brake Max and they took my truck in on time. During the writeup, the manager informed me of an open recall for my vehicle. I had no idea of such recall. Told me to contact the dealership for repair. I was thankful for the heads up and referral.After about an hour, I received a call from the manager who said that the alignment was within spec, and that the tires were causing the pull to the left. They had rotated the front tires and found that the truck now pulls right. They suggested two new front tires.I arrived to pick up my truck and was told that there was no charge to check the alignment. They could have easily sold me an alignment job and told me that the tires were contributing, but they were extremely honest and told me the truth.Because of my experience with this business, they gains another customer. Ill bring my truck to them for maintenance and repairs in the future.

The oil change itself was adequate. The issue I have is dropping it off at 8:30 in the morning and mentioning that Im going to be leaving it and would like a phone call when its finished see the problem in that statement is when Im driving by 4 hours later and Ive got to stop to see my truck in the parking lot as if its completed. This also wouldnt necessarily be an issue if I hadnt walked across the street to the grocery store right after I dropped it off to pick up a few things and then on my way out noticed the truck up on a lift already. So yeah it wasnt the 4-Hour oil change it was a we did the oil change right away and neglected to call you and let you know it was ready.

Our car informed us of a low tire psi... it continued to drop quickly...a quick Google search popped up BrakeMax was very close to our location...we stopped in at 4:30, they immediately got us in to check the tire... it needed replaced... they didnt have my tire in stock so they changed the tire and put spare on... all of that great service at no charge! Thank You!

Rex was amazing. He helped me get my car started (alternator going bad), was very professional and friendly. I have other work that needs to be done on the car and I 100% will be back simply because of him. Thank you for your stellar customer service.

Good place and great customer service. They will do what you ask. They got our car done fast. Will end up going back unless we find something closer. They are about 30 minutes from us, but have taken good care of us.

The manager on board was professionally helpful to say the least. There are some heros occupying any job they do and when it comes to safety these guys are the ones that stay steady and true to what they do at all times. Thank you sincerely grateful.

My tire had a huge hole and had been filled with slime to fix until we could get it patched, they cleaned my tire completely and patched the tire. The car drived SO much better after words as I have a long drive back home to Phoenix. They had me in and out in less than 20 minutes. My 2 year old son ran around the waiting room. Amazing customer service. So helpful and friendly. I will definitely be coming back with any future problems

I went to this facility for repairs concerning the fuel system in my custom vehicle. They were unable to fabricate the part that I needed. However they were able to help me find someone who could. I am extremely happy with the courtesy and professionalism of this facility! I will strongly recommend this business to anyone needing help. 😎

Thank you for taking good care of my old car!I’ve been able to depend on you caring for her a long time. I lived in Oro Valley and your store there fixed everything on her then. I am happy your store is even closer to me here in Catalina.We are both old and thankful you are dependable! Sincerely, Nancy Key🎄🌺

Review №34

Took my car to you because our regular mechanic doesnt do tire repair.Got a call that the tire couldnt be repaired. Wanted to sell us 4 new tires. Also mentioned the master cylinder fluid had been compromised. We said we would just come and get the car. I came home and then left to run an errand. When I got home my husband said to pop the hood. He had found a cap and gasket in the driveway.Sure enough, no cap on the master cylinder reservoir. He tried to put the one he found back on. Didnt fit. Went to auto parts store and got the CORRECT cap and gasket. Also left my allstate gadget unplugged and in the center console.Took the car to our mechanic, and yes, the master cylinder fluid had been compromised. NEVER CONVINCE ME IT DIDNT HAPPEN AT BRAKEMAX.you have a horrible reputation for taking advantage of people. Sorry we ever trusted you with a simple tire issue.$3000.00 later, at our HONEST MECHAIC SHOP, my car is fixed.July 1And now, Im amazed at reading the thank yous good reviews get. Ive not heard a thing back. You really dont care do you? Disgusting.July 3It just keeps getting more ridiculous. The tire that you said couldnt be patched is now patched and just fine.July 10And, of course, havent heard a thing from management. Went in to Brakemax and told them what had happened. Guy said he has video of the work done. Funny, wonder if the video shows no cap on the master cylinder when he put the hood down.July 21AND STILL HAVENT HEARD FROM ANYONE.good customer service also means addressing the unhappy customers.Apparently thats not the way this company does business.

I woke up to a flat tire this morning. Happy Halloween, Wayne! I googled tire service and ended up here. This place is one of the best Ive ever been to. Any type of tire, brake, etc. needs I might have in the future, this is my spot. I couldnt be more satisfied and impressed. Well done!

Review №38

Brake Max in Catalina is prompt, customer service focused and well priced. When I get my car there at opening, I usually get it back in the morning with not much wait time. There is a warranty on service, so if something was wrong I could just call and bring it back. I havent had to use that yet, because it seems they do it right the first time. I do shop around and this is the best place Ive found for brakes, oil change and ties. They have a cute yellow courtesy shuttle, which makes things super convenient if you dont have someone to take you.

First time here. It was a very informative service. My car got all the services needed. They gave me a ride home. So that was a plus since I didnt expect to wait there for an 1 hour or so and they offered to take me back to the shop. So, that says a lot. Definitely, coming back for a next service.

Review №46

If I wanted to spend nearly $60 on on oil change I would have gotten 6 quarts of Mobil 1 and done it myself.Advisor tried pushing dexos (GMs newer formula spec), said I wanted conventional, left my key.On returning I find the original bill of $57 and change. What, so you still put dexos in?Yeah, thats what you told meNo it wasnt. Place has always been hit or miss with me, never left a review til now, but Im done with this location... others maybe, but not Catalina.

Review №54

I needed a tire ASAP as mine shredded going down the road. They got me a Goodyear for a good price and had it done in a couple hours. I also needed my charging system tested which they did at no charge. The 4 star rating is because they said they would call me and let me know how the test went and they failed to do that. While shopping, my son asked me four times if they called yet...irritating 😉. All in all though it was a good experience. I will go back in a couple weeks and swap out the other tire as well.

We have used BRAKEmax since they opened. Today was no different that our experiences over the years; friendly competent staff, work done on time and at less than dealership charges, battery-life checks for free, driver available if a ride home is needed, warnings about tire wear and other possible defects, and I take both cars there.

Disappointing from start to finish. 1.) Did not confirm the appointment in the promised timely fashion. I had to phone back the following day. 2.) Two employees at front desk were not wearing masks, until confronted. 3.) Vehicle was not sanitized upon return. 4.) $7.99 publicized oil change price was pumped up to $12.13 for shop supples and oil disposal. Fees were not disclosed until the final bill. 5.) This review portal would not load on Safari -- had to go to Chrome.

Today I had an oil change done on my car, on my way home it smelt like I had burning oil. When I got home my boyfriend looked underneath the car and there was oil everywhere the person who did the oil change did a lousy job. Didn’t clean up after himself!!! There’s oil all over the driveshaft, and even under the hood..

They did the work well but I was quoted an hour and a half. When I called at the time quoted to check in they said it was next to go in and would be about 30-45 minutes I went down an hour and half later and it was sitting outside ready and nobody called. I go here often but it did make me late for work.

They were friendly, nice and took me in right away. It was $550 for brakes all around and one rotor. Lifetime warranty brake pads. I came backed for new tires and a front end alignment. They got the wrong tires but were courteous and kind about the mistake. They took care of me even though it took a little longer than I expected.

Review №88

A year and half ago I told the mgr and I was going to competitor and bringing my own oil and filter and they were charging me $20. He said he would match the offer. Things went fine for a few oil changes until this time. This time the mgr insisted I pay $24 plus tax saying it was company rules to charge for disposal. The problem is he would not honor our agreement and raised the price. Guess I will go back to your competitor and they can do their 22 point inspection and find new things to fix on my car. I bought two new tires a few months ago resulting from taking my car in for an oil change.
