Brake repair service near Keene, CA

Just used Wrench for the first time ever and it was crazy convenient and less than half the cost of what my dealer had quoted me. Thanks Rich for changing out my brake pads and test driving everything for me to make sure my family and I have a safe ride! April Garbusjuk

Had a check engine light that kept coming on for my ABS, P&N took care of it right away for a very reasonable charge, check engine light is off now and car is 100% once again. They know their stuff, great experience.

I was there June 1,2023. This was much more than an auto tire replacement. It was an auto wheel, struts hub, knuckle, stabilizer bar, etc. etc. etc. replacement.! Jesse was very helpful and he’s an honest mechanic and he goes above and beyond to get the job done right!

I was just starting an RV road trip when my power steering pump quit. I was towed to Performance, and I could not have had better luck. They found a replacement pump for me and installed it, working three hours past their closing time to get me back on the road. Very thoughtful about the work and kept me informed as it progressed.

Ever since Chris bought the shop I've trusted him and staff to service and repair two new trucks and three used cars. All work is backed up and done right as if his children were going to drive it. Cost has always been fair and he does his best to give me my vehicle back in a timely manner. It is without reservation that I recommend all your automotive needs to Chris.

The Jag service was just my most recent work done there. I have been taking my 1974 Triumph TR6 to Andy for the past three years and had work done on the 2005 Altima of a student my wife and I help. I have always been nothing but completely satisfied with their work. Their rates are fair (below that of the dealer or lesser quality work done in other shops. I found their knowledge and work superior and there research to be thorough. I recommend them to anyone with both modern and classic cars, both American and foreign.

This an older location, but welcoming. Setting an appointment couldn't be easier, and the staff is eager to meet your exact needs. Justin is an insanely busy man, but an excellent multi-Tasker, and the epitome of professional, a true machine. The staff's knowledge on mechanical aspects, along with speed, and customer service, are unbeatable. There's a reason why this location is so busy, and I recommend them. Ariel Earhart

These are guys are hard and dedicated workers and they treat the customer like family

i went to pep boys by my house, my husband has gone there for years. I went down and the service mgr helped me on purchasing 4 new tires and balance. I paid for and was scheduled to come back 2 days later as they had to order the tires from warehouse. I went in on a friday and it took about 3 hours... when i got home after getting my vehicle, i noticed my chrome caps were missing and i had 4 plastics caps on each tire. I just paid 670.00 for 4 tires and balancing and you switch my chrome caps for plastic ones. I called and spoke to service mgr and told him where's are my chrome caps........ He said come back in and i will give you a set. It's the principal of the deal. IT'S NOT THEIR DECISION for them to switch out, i brought my vehicle with them on i expect to drive off with them. That's just wrong.......

I took my vehicle in for a power steering leak and was informed by Matt that the power steering hose needed to be replaced. I was told the few days I came in before the repair that it would take about 4 hours and I came prepared to be occupied as I had to wait for the fixture. I spent over $400. Upon leaving, Matt said I would be very happy with the work he did, which was cocky given that he has no way of knowing what my expectations are, and clearly untrue with the explanation below. Upon performing an oil change weeks later, I was informed the newly fixed hose was rubbing up against my engine belt and the nylon sheath was already worn through, with a subsequent indentation on the rubber hose itself. The staff kindly secured the hose away from the belt until I could take it in, which I did the next day. I was certainly displeased with the inconvenience, but said nothing to Mike, who handles the customers, about that. Without prompting, Mike offered a free oil change in compensation. When I requested an inspection following the repair, Matt had not replaced the hose but simply secured it away from the belt. What if that discovery had not been made and another leak, which was imminent, ensued? I called back 4 times, on the day of the securement, to request if I could simply get the monetary equivalent of the oil change (I would imagine it shouldn't exceed $50) as I had no confidence in Matt's capabilities or truth-telling, and all four times it went to the voicemail. Interesting. They were accessible every time I needed work done prior to that. If I was to rate Mike's customer service, I would give him a 5/5. Matt's attitude and work, a 1/5. So, I gave an overall rating of 2/5. I would not recommend their services to anyone.
