Brake repair service near Rochester, WI

I called on the weekend (Saturday) to make a appointment to get my car fixed. Was almost un-drivable and my only car, so I needed it fixed a-sap. Soonest appointment wasn't until Monday after weekend at 10am. First off, when I showed up for the appointment the guy made it clear that not only were they not able to work on car today but probably wont even fix it that same day. After I explained that I would just take it somewhere else since it was my only source of transportation, he said he would try to work on it and see what he could do. Wondered why I even made a appointment. I explained to him what I thought the problem was and made sure he called me as soon as he knew for sure what the problem was and so I could give him permission to work on it. (Depending on the cost needed to make sure I could afford it) Before I left he approached me "beating around the bush" Saying things like "It's bad and going to be expensive" Not wanting to give me a exact quote. (Keep in mind I had gotten a quote on Saturday for the replacement of a water pump including labor at $330.) He tried to give me a explanation that is was leaking something with the coolant, making it obvious I had a blown gasket and that it was not the water pump that needed to be replaced. After asking him about 4 times what it meant and how much it was going to be he finally said it would be at least 10 hours of labor which alone could be about $1000. I told him to please double check and call me to make sure it was in fact the problem. I was devastated... He said he wouldn't know for sure till about a hour when the car cooled off. Three hours later I had my husband call him to find out what was going on since I had not heard back from him. He told him the same story. I then called and explained to him I would be picking up the car simply because I could not afford it at the time. Myself, I was thinking if I am going to pay that much money in labor alone I want a second opinion. Well lets jus

Awful place. I brought my car there because the front driver's side wheel was making a scraping sound. The owner Bill went on a ride with me so he could hear the sound, which he did and had an idea of what it could be. I brought the car back during my scheduled time, which after waiting for about 4 hours after I dropped it off that they can't figure out what is wrong with it, saying there seems to be nothing wrong with the "rear: tires. They spent 4 hours looking at the wrong end of the car. I told them and the owner knew that it was the front driver side. After 3 more hours after the phone call I go there to see what is going on to find my car outside, not even being looked at. And no phone call giving me any more information on it. The girl at the front desk said it "must be my brakes" and I should get a certain kind to fix the issues. The brakes are BRAND NEW CERAMIC BRAKES, not cheap metallic ones. It's not the brakes. Then she said it must be the rotors because they had some wear on them. Please you have no idea what it is and the owner decided to go home a few hours after they opened. Poor Communication. Lastly, I took my car home to find grease all over the driver side interior door and a large scratch right in the doorway (freshly scratched). The grease has been a pain to get off and the scratch is down to the metal. I have photos to post as well. POOR SERVICE.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!!! Had my brakes done in May 2014, in October 2014 I was at Tires Plus getting new tires when the mechanic there discovered ALL FIVE of my right rear tire studs were stretched out, and when they went to put the lug nuts back on, one of the studs BROKE OFF! Apparently when Midas put my rear tire back on after the brake job in May, the lug nuts were over-torqued. During the next 5 months that the damage was done, THANK GOD that the studs didn't break off while driving!!! It costs me FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS to get the hub assembly replaced, along with 5 new lug nuts, BEFORE the car was even drivable again. I called and spoke to the Cudahy Midas manager, they refused to take responsibility, so I contacted Midas Corp and filed a claim....of course that was just as useless, they "tried" to intervene, yet in the end they couldn't do anything...surprise! Some BS about it being past 90 days, um I wasn't claiming the brakes were faulty, just the labor who damaged my vehicle! AGAIN STAY AWAY FROM THEM!!!!!!!!!!!

They do a great job here. Come to them for all my car needs. Reliable, trustworthy, and affordable. Recommend them to anyone in the Milwaukee area! -Brittany Aceto

i had my vehicle to 4 different shops and have been without my vehicle for almost a month. i then was referred to schaumann's auto electric, where not only did they fix my car, but did it in a timely manner and at a fair price. i would highly recommend this place if you are having car troubles.

Loved the atmosphere in the shop. Mike was so professional and quoted me a darn good price! The mechanics were professional and explained everything they did on my SUV. I highly recommend Dave's Garage! It's the most honest and friendly repair shop that I have ever been to!

If you are in need of a great mechanic, Heppe's are your go-to guys. They made my 1996 Audi feel like I just drove it out of the showroom. Honest, good hard-working folks. Can't recommend them enough. I used to be a mechanic back in the day, but your average guy can't work on cars these days without expensive computers, etc. They truly know their stuff, are 1,000 times better than a dealer, and get the job done. They also did work on my wife's car many times and she's super happy. Give them a try. This is a 100% unsolicited review. I give them a 10-star rating!

I've lived in Milwaukee for 13 years. For the first three I floated around trying to find a trustworthy, affordable, and fast mechanic. I finally found them around 2004 and I can only say wonderful things about Kevin and Dennis at Greitens. They run a clean shop, are knowledgeable and pleasant to work with, and fix your car/truck fast and right. The prices are completely fair and straightforward. I highly recommend this shop over all others in Milwaukee.

I took car in to be repaired on the morning of Friday September 8, 2017, to get my thermostat and radiator replaced. I pick my car up later that evening, drove home, parked car until the next day. September 9, 2017, while I was driving my car, The engine light came on inside my vehicle and you start to drive a little funny so I took my car home waited until Monday to take my car back to the shop by that time my car overheated, The motor seized up and my head gasket was blown. The antifreeze that they put in my car leaked out and that's what caused the problem because it didn't have no coolant and they are trying to blame me for what had happened to my car. My car has never overheated before and that was the reason I bought in for. This company refuse to give me my old car parts or try to fix what they didn't.
