Upon returning they have my whole wheel off.They then proceed to tell me that my wheel cylinder and axel is completely busted.They said that the brake fluid is completely leaking out of the wheel there.The fellow then tells me to fix the brakes at all will probably be in the range of 800 dollars to make it to work at all.Now,this car is an old car,while a great running car,not even worth putting that much into.I knew of issues my car previously had,some of which they were telling me made it where they couldn't fix my brakes.I told them that I am not paying that much.At that point the mechanic scoffed at me and said," If this was my car I wouldn't even drive it out of here with getting all this work done."Having no choice,I left anyways and made it all the way back home.Just today,I had the brakes fixed completely by a local honest mechanic.It took him an hour.He told me that the cap on the line was off in a way that seems impossible to happen unless someone does it intentionaly.I don't know if this was done at Bruneel to further increase a simple problem,or if it was just a one in a million shot thing.Eitherway,Bruneel knew that they could have fixed my brakes easily enough,but instead allowed me to drive out of there because I called their bluff.If you do choose to use this business,I would get a second opinion first.~J

When I asked them to explain why the price was so high, all they did was try to sign me up for a finance program. Their number didn't even include fixing a leak on the rear end. Bruneel gave me two quotes that would just get me up and running again, or have everything done right. Ryan explained the pricing when I asked questions, and I ended up going the more expensive route. Bruneel even fixed the leak in the rear end for much less than the competitor had quoted me for just the front suspension work. My pickup was back up and running when I was told it was going to be done, and I couldn’t be happier. When I had a few questions after the fact Ryan came out himself and answered everything right up front with me. The Fairview store definitely went the extra mile!
