Brake Check ********** put big sign "FREE alignment check" and "we do alignment and brake RIGHT". I went there for checking alignment, 30 minutes waiting from the scheduled time.. Once finished, they charged me with the excuse they went ahead fix the alignment WITHOUT even show me the result or ask whether I want to do alignment or not after they checked the alignment. They also refuse to give before and after alignment adjustment printout with excuse that the system down, they only said the monitor shows it's off 0.6 on 1 s... read more

Location: **************************************************************************** Review from ******* We brought our car in on November 2021, because our brakes were making loud noises. The front brakes were worked on: new rotors, brake pads, calipers, etc. (Total: $521.70) We brought it back in on March 2022, because our brakes werent working at all. We were promised a deal, but it came out to $509.75 for replacing both calipers, resurfacing the rotors, etc. Less than one week after that visit, our brakes started makin... read more

Brake Check - Fire in Tire Well Within a few miles after service work was completed at Brake Check on I-45, a fire broke out in the front tire wheel. Thankfully, an individual that happened to be an ex-Brake Check employee working at a local mechanic shop was able to put out the fire and knew exactly how to fix the problem. Brake Check takes no responsibility!

Went to Brake Check in ****** on 12/10/22 for pads and rotor resurfacing, costing $518. I had to take my car back to them on 12/16/22 due to a grinding noise on the driver's side wheels. They advised that noise was just the new brake pads being "broken in," and that the noise would go away over the next week or two. I let a few weeks pass with NO improvement, and on 1/8/23 I went to the ************* location for service. They had no availability and referred me to the ******* location, which I immediately drove to. The guy ... read more

Monday, November 14, 2022 - Brake Check ***********************************************: Heard grinding that morning so pulled into BC to get brakes checked. As suspected the pads were shot on the rear. The back rotors also were shot - deep ****** on the inside. Rotors (installed by previous owner) were heat dissipating style with holes / grooves so could not be turned. I was ok with installing new, normal rotors ($130.49 each) and pads ($69.88 set). Counter person stated I really should have caliper maintenance done ($52.50... read more

Horrible service, I went to have my brake pads and rotors changed at this place at the end of August and I dont believe they changed my brake pads or rotors although they said they did twice! If they changed them the first time I went in, why change them a second time? After taking my car here for service my brakes sound HORRIBLE very loud squealing, squeaking and grinding horribly. My car was NOT sounding this way prior to taking it to them. Ive taken it back to them SEVERAL times and each time someone tells my a different ... read more

Last year in 2021 around November, the ***** light came on in my 2009 **** Escape. I took it to brake check to see if they can diagnose the problem. They called me & told me that the front brakes on my car were bad and needed to be replaced and it was a huge safety issue. I asked them if that could be the problem why the *** light would be on and if fixing the brakes would make the light come off (I needed to get my car inspected). The guy said yes, it would and that it was a safety hazard. I told them to go ahead and replac... read more
