Sabateurs – Chalk up another bad review for Brake Check. I took my car in so they could reprogram my PCM. They told me that their best mechanic, Eddie, could do anything. After 3 weeks, I found out they did nothing because their computer system wasn't updated, all because they were too lazy to do so, or due to lack of competence. I had my car towed out of the shop and took it to the dealership, whom informed me, in less than 24 hours, that my wiring harness was torn apart so badly, that this car would never run again.

worst place EVER! – This was by far the worst place I've ever had to deal with. I went there to receive maintenance and repair on my front breaks and rotors. I ended up getting new brakes and rotors (upon their recommendation) and left pretty satisfied with the price and timely response. This is where it gets bad. About 5 days later, my driver's side brake LITERALLY fell off. It didn't shift or slightly move; it FELL OFF! I took it back to brake check (luckily I was just down the road when this happened) and they repaired it... read more
Either incompetent or dishonest (?) – My 05 F150 4x2's front rotors were warped. This appears to be a common problem. The rotors and wheel hub are integral on the 2WD and it takes 300 ft-lb of torque to install new rotors. I didn't have the right tools and didn't want to get into that job, so I had my wife take it there to give it a shot of turning the rotors on the truck and installing new pads. After she had dropped it off and they told her it would be $300+, they called back later and said the rotors and hub were integral... read more
Good Experience – I have to say my experience was a good one. Robert and James run a really shop. I am completely satisfied.
Stay Away from Brake Check – Read the reviews here and elsewhere before taking your car to Brake Check. You'll find common complaints about them. They are very expensive and use the bait and switch tactic to increase your repair bill. Once they start a repair job they come back with additonal problems that cost more than the original estimate. It happened to me and then I read this same tactic in other people's reviews. Check out the reviews in Austin and surrounding cities. Do yourself a favor and find another garage to do ... read more
Extremely High Prices! – Many people think that Brake Check will Rip You Off. I personally believe that they charge way too much for brake work! They often recommend repairs that may or may not be necessary as well. I had brakes done there and the next day two Chrysler dealership service managers said they thought I paid way too much! If the dealer thinks you paid too much, Wow! The dealer quoted me $240 for the same job that Brake Check charged me $427 for. I guess I was the fool. I would recommend going anywhere else.
RIP OFF – Went there to get free brake inspection.........That was the only free thing they offer. They gave me an estimate for $1200.00 for front brakes on my F350. So I went to dealer since I only had 28000 miles. The repair was done for $550.00.
