This man charged me 3000 for putting in an engine I supplied, didn't do half the stuff you're supposed to do with swapping in a savage engine while using the excuse that "it was a customer supplied engine". He puts the new engine in but charges me an additional $805 because he said the new engine had a bad oil pan. $805 dollars just to switch oil pans with the old engine.

Then the new engine is popping out the coil and he couldn't even try take off 7 bolts to see why. I'm now paying additional money to have it towed to a different mechanic since he (Brad) is never here. Expect to pay ASE certified prices for shady tree mechanic work here. It's an absolute joke. He couldn't even provide invoices for the parts he said he put into the new motor So now I have to pay a mechanic to tell me if I actually have a new timing belt, crank seal and oil pan gasket. Seriously just find a trusted mechanic elsewhere. Brad is not worth 1/4 of what he charges.

I took my car there late on a Wednesday afternoon and on Thursday Brad said he needed the car one more day & give him a call on Friday afternoon. I called but he didn't answer. I left messages but no call back. I called on Saturday hoping he would be open since he blew me off on Friday but nothing. I had a Doctor's appointment at 8:30 Monday morning but I didn't get my car back until 9:00 am Monday so I got a missed appointment charge because I didn't cancel which I thought I was getting my car back but Brad went to Phoenix and didn't return my calls that get forwarded to his cellphone according to him. Don't take your car there unless you have a second car. Brad could care less his mechanic told him I missed my doctor's appointment & not even an apology.

The repair was honest and guaranteed for 2 years and that's more than a guarantee than the other shops would give me usually it's a year plus I just was able to drop the car off and pick it back up without any problems

Grateful for Brad fixing my daughters Pathfinder. He was affordable, timely and very easy work with. I will continue to take our vehicles to him and refer others whenever possible!

I have Known and worked for this man in the past. I have personally witnessed Brad replacing a part with used parts from a wrecking yard (he gets free) and charging new part pricing. I would seriously recommend reviewing and/ or questioning any parts replaced.

Really helpful and knowledgeable! I took my car to Brad after it had been making a weird sound and had gotten two completely different diagnostics. Turns out it was my compressor and he had it all fixed for me in a day! Really cool and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!

I've had a few repairs done here, minor and major. Perfectly happy with the work done on my Acura- one of the relatively difficult to work on models. Brad seems very honest and helpful, has shown me that the work was done every time, and on the latest when an unexpected issue arose they made it right and resolved the problem! The shop is a little out of the way nestled off of Oracle but absolutely give them a shot! They do good work for a good price.

Brad was super helpful on getting my window regulator replaced. Had the part on hand and the replacement works great. Would recommend him for any honda repairs. Edit: Once again they saved my bacon when my multiplex control unit failed. They saved me over 500 dollars for the repair work that I was quoted for elsewhere. I can not thank them enough. My recommendation still stands.

First to know the Civic Center is in service to others - and that is what I primarily seek when I'm looking for a good mechanic(vs service to self) Excellent work, done by an old race car driver! Good rates, and even picked me up. Tell him the Yes and No Boys sent you!

Brad is absolutely amazing! The service advisor at Chapman Honda tried to tell me that I needed a new motor. I called Brad for a second opinion not knowing him at all. He told me something didn't sound right about what the service advisor told me. I brought my truck to Brad and lo and behold there was nothing wrong with the motor and Brad work diligently day night and kept me updated on the progress and was able to fix what the service advisors screwed up. It turned out that my radiator hoses were on backwards. He fixed everything and even delivered my truck to me! I would recommend him to anybody anytime!
