I have never had such a positive service experience in my 40 years of driving. Our manual transmission car started jerking and the engine light came on as we drove east on the interstate. We slowly pulled off of the highway and into the nearest garage. We were in the middle of a 1,000 mile journey we were planning to complete in one day. Brady greeted us, ran the diagnostics and set to work right away so that we could continue our journey.
He was calm and knowledgeable. We waited in the cafe and the staff were friendly and courteous. The work was done well and we were on our way in under 2 hours. I highly recommend Brady and his team for their expertise and genuine commitment to service. I would make this my regular garage if i lived anywhere nearby.

We landed here when our car blew a hose on the interstate. They didn't have the necessary part for my foreign car, but promised they could get it the next day. I was nervous leaving my baby in unfamiliar hands. I shouldn't have worried. My car was repaired the next day in plenty of time to pick it up. The guys did a great job and charged me a fair price. I would definitely recommend them

I needed a hub replaced. It's hard as a single woman to find a good, knowledgeable mechanic with integrity. They were fast and efficient. They also did a great check on the rest of my vehicle which I wasn't expecting! Awesome job guys! Special thanks to Nick! You rock!

Critical: Value Overcharge and price gouge. I was charged 76 dollars for 7.5 quarts of oil! Not to mention 4 dollars for a half gallon of washer fluid. In total my bill was 114 dollars for an oil change. I mean REALLY! Service: Oil change

These reviews don't do this place justice. They are the first and only shop I've ever been confident to recommend friends or family to go to. I even gave them a task that would have been easy for them to milk for extra labor. I was nervous and expecting to possibly argue about the value even though I felt I could trust them. They UNDERCHARGED me in my honest opinion. I was stunningly impressed. Mechanic job is tough when it comes to trying to be fair, not screw yourself or the customer, but also to give honest opinions on what can be done or what can maybe safely go without doing without putting the customers safety at risk. 90% of people will never understand this. Brady's is the most HONEST dealings I've EVER HAD with a shop and I will send any work their way I don't have time to do for friends and family.
