Great experience at this place. Good guys to work with and got a fair price for the work I needed. Cant ask for much more than that. Highly recommend!
I called brake works today on an emergency break issue going on with our van. Thank God we brought it in. The rear brakes were horrible! But the techs there right away replace the rear breaks. They were friendly, honest, and their prices were very reasonable. This is our go to place for brakes from now on. Thank you! ????
I had the brakes (pads/rotos) replaced on my Kia Sorento a few months ago with a mechanic near my home. I live in Mexico, but had bought the parts in the US and brought them to the mechanic near my home.
After the job was done, the brakes were grinding and the stopping distances were not quite right with my Kia.
So I went to Brake Works to get a second opinion (for lack of a better term - it was really a first opinion, but an inspection of the work that has been done) and Luis did the inspection. He was extremely knowledgeable and friendly.
The inspection was free, and the conclusion was that the parts (rotors in particular) were the cause of the issue, not the original work I had done. In other words - I had purchase the wrong parts, but the mechanic near my home had done the work properly.
While this is a relatively simple review of a short inspection, in my eyes it's an important one: I went to Brake Works willing to have work done and made it clear that I wasn't happy with how my vehicle was driving, despite the new brakes.
Luis (or another employee) could have easily blamed the former mechanic and charged me for a job to re-do the brakes. And because the issue WOULD be fixed by installing better rotors, I would never have known.
Instead, Luis spent a lot of time with me, explaining why the parts I had bought were not good for our coastal climate, and recommending that I wait a while to see if the issue clears up once they've been further broken in.
Honesty like that is important, as was the knowledge of the specific parts and issue, and Brake Works gets the highest recommendation I can give!
Great experience. Ulysses was awesome. Came in out of the blue for a break leak. Truck was fixed in a little over an hour and at a reasonable rate. I would recommend this shop to anyone. Good people.
Best mechanic shop in San Diego I've been in the las few years, by best I mean great people specially Ulises and customer service that shows they care and believe me, I've been around a lot of mechanics, very reasonable prices and excellent delivery time, I am a fleet manager and for the last year I have taken all of my vehicles to them because I know our vehicles are on the road all they and they can't be failing when working, not a single car has returned to get repaired fix the same problem twice.
Came by to check out the shop, Giancarlos is quick and easy on the brakes and well educated!! Would come by again if any more issues appear!! ????
Came to the wrong shop and found out it’s was the best shop Giancarlo and his uncle took care of my for edge I was supposed to go to another shop and Google maps sent me here instead I’m glad I came here to brake works they took care of my car fast I highly recommend this shop and the prices are very competitive
By far the worst company I have ever worked with and will not recommend anyone to take your car here. The only thing I can say is they have great prices but not for the work they do, the owner cussed me out and didn’t pump my brakes back up before I left and almost caused me to crash into the vehicle behind me. I also lost my wallet there and they have denied it over 4 times that they did not see it but the tracer on my wallet says it’s in there shop. This company will give you a very hard time if your hoping to wait around for your vehicle to be ready. Please be more professional if you’re going to own a business!!
