My Mazda 3 2015 had handle break issues. I stopped by the shop made an appointment and in the same day it got fixed!Great service! I like how he communicated in a very professional but relaxed way. It was easy to understand and he seems to be a very honest and trustworthy person.Considering doing other fixes here in the future!
Fair price, solid work. Support local independents! Its hard to find honest people in this industry but this dude stands out. Thank you!
I think Ive found the most honest and real mechanic in Sacramento! The work was fast, the price was great, and Joes skills speak for themselves. His ability to explain everything was amazing, and I came out knowing more about my vehicle than I ever have.I feel safe in my old vehicle once again, and I highly recommend Brake Time.
10/10 ! Would recommend this shop to anybody! They are quick, professional, and even if they don’t have appointments available they will make time for you. They’re also affordable! Wouldn’t get my brakes done anywhere else! Thank you!!
I Highly Recommend Break Time Auto Repair, Joe Did A Phenomenal Job. He was Very Upfront About What Was Going On With My Car, It was Not An Easy Fix But he Got To The bottom Of it And Did A Fabulous Job, It Was For-sure a lot of Patience & time dedicated to my car. When he had Deeply Explained To Me Every Issue on My car I Was Full Of Gratitude because Not Every Mechanic is Honest, I Knew Right Away That My Car Was In Good Hands, Thanks for your honesty and work put into my car you can genuinely see that this guy is about his hard work and making sure his customers walk out of auto repair Satisfied. I’m Happy To Say If I Have Any More Problems In The Future I Can Come Back!
After multiple trips to another shop and thousands of dollars of parts and labor i was still having front end suspension issues and lost confidence in the other shop. We brought my truck here he was friendly and professional he did not make false promises said he would look it over and we would go from there. He had an alignment done before starting the work so he could diagnose the issue the right way and found multiple issues parts not tightened properly brand new ball joints without grease the truck was very unsafe. He tightened and greased everything took multiple trips to the alignment rack to dial it in the right way and at a very affordable cost. He was fast detailed orientated affordable and took pride in his work not to many people around like this anymore i would highly recommend him for any of your automotive needs.
This place is awesome!!! I got my front brakes done and they are working amazing. I got well explained about everything and the price was affordable. Also, the mechanic was really nice and checked my engine light for free. I really appreciated all the process. Customer service was incredible 👏🏻
I got service from Joe twice & both times he was very professional & quick! And fixed everything I needed done & at a good price! My first car and scared to trust anyone but joe is someone you can trust!!
Brake time is the best car repair shop I’ve ever been so far. I really recommend everyone to try this place. Ive used them for mechanic issue with my car and they did a great job for my vehicle. Joe have an Excellent customer service with fast and quality skills. He did a great job taking care of me providing all the service I need. Keep up with the great job and I will continue to use brake time again.
I had called 3 other places to get my front brakes done and they were crazy expensive! .. I came across Joe business and boy was I glad ! I gave him a call he was very eager to educate me on the service I was looking for. I even asked questions about other services that I would need in the future and Joe was happy to educate me on those as well and when I would need to get them done. Joe was able to get me In The same day ! He told me he would need about 40 minutes to complete the service and he got it done in about 30 minutes! He test drived my car to make sure everything was okay and he explained everything he saw and did with my car brakes and educated me. I was extremely please with the amount of care Joe gave me. . Joe ensured me of anything was wrong to give him a call. Yall his pricing is reasonable and fair and he did good work. .. yall if you looking for a good mechanic who gives good customer service and care to your car head over to Joe business!! You will be extremely pleased 😊
It was very professional the estimate that was quoted and my final bill was accurate to the quote no extra surprised charges.very satisfied with the work done and it was done in a timely matter. I would recommend this shop and definitely will tell my friends and family. I will return to have them work on my car again. Great service😊
I went in because my brakes were squealing pretty loud after another mechanic replaced my rotors. Turns out it was a simple hardware problem that took 10min to fix. Very honest and didn’t try to oversell or overcharge me. Totally recommend!!
Joe was awesome! Got my service done here and my brakes were done incredibly well! Last time I got them done at T-Rex auto, and they did a terrible job. Thats why 2 months later I came here. Im glad I did too! 10/10
Amazing experience. I brought my vehicle into Brake Time Auto Repair, through the referral of a parts store manager. The parts store had checked the code for my check engine light and advised of the sensor that my car needed. When I spoke to Joe at Brake Time Auto Repair, he advised me that the code could be from various issues and it would be best to have him properly diagnose the issue accurately. This way he could guarantee the fix. So glad I took his advice. Joe is extremely honest, trustworthy and a true master mechanic. He diagnosed the issue, which wasn’t the sensor at all, got rid of the check engine light, and saved me $$$ that I was already prepared to pay for the sensor. I’m so glad I was referred to Brake Time Auto Repair. Joe truly goes above and beyond to provide excellent service. Thank you Joe, for being awesome.
I had an appointment somewhere to get my brakes redone and they didn’t show. I called Joe at his shop and he had us come down right away, last minute on a Sunday! He fixed my car in an hour and was a super cool, nice, honest guy. I’m super thankful for what he did and will be coming back for future needs.
Joe is amazing! I can’t say this enough. I took my car in because my brakes stopped working. Joe took his time to look into my issue and diagnosed the problem. It was difficult to find parts but he didn’t give up. He called me every step of the way to make sure I knew what was going on. He is honest and trustworthy. As a woman, I feel that I have been taken advantage of before by mechanics, I did NOT feel that way about Joe. He provides quality work and service. I will continue to bring my cars to him. He has earned my continued business. Thanks again Joe!
What a wonderful experience I had at Brake Time Auto Repair. Very professional, great communication, kind and honest. Joe was great. I highly recommend this shop and I will go back for all my auto needs.
Gerald is AWESOME! His price was great, his services are great. He is honest. One thing that makes Gerald great is his communication skills. He explained to me what was happening not just told me what needed to be done. I will definitely go to him next time I need something done.
I went to Brake Time Auto to get my lights fixed and a checkup. Joe was very thorough, and took the time explain the problem in a way I could understand before fixing it. A mechanic I can trust to get the job done right the first time. Excellent customer service and quality work for a great price. I would highly recommend Brake Time Auto, its the only place I will now go to.
SUV needed O2 sensor. Joe did a great job and got it done the same day. He is super trust worthy and I will definitely be bringing my trucks to him when I need other work done.
Joe was EXTREMELY informative, he ran a diagnosis on my 2003 Acura and told me exactly what the problem was straight up with no chaser. I would recommend anyone to get their car serviced here as he is truly about customer service quality, rather than about the Benjamins like most auto shops. He will definitely be my mechanic from here on!!
Amazing!!! Best service Ive ever had. I will be recommending him to all family and friends.
Great customer service. Joe at Brake Time really went the extra mile. I came in with my brakes sounding like a Godzilla roar and left stopping in silence. He even rotated my tires and added air to one that was low. Would highly recommend Brake Time and will be getting all my car work done there.
I decided to give Brake Time Auto repair a chance when getting the brakes on my 2007 Subaru Outback done. I thought I only needed front brakes, but Joe alerted me to my back brakes needing work and showed me the damage to prove it. I got incredible service at a very fair price. He even drove my car back to my home for me so that I wouldnt have to Uber. He was very communicative, and prompt. Brakes are working really well now and I will be going back to him for other repairs, since he doesnt only do brakes. Highly recommend this honest repair shop!
I was recommended to go see Joe at Brake Time Auto Repair by my local parts store for my check engine light that came on. He diagnosed the stuttering engine as a misfire right away due to bad spark plug. I thought I was going to need a new engine! Changed the spark plugs, everything good as new. Great experience! Will be back for all my car needs.
I was having issues with my car that the dealer failed to resolve. I found Brake Time Auto Repair and Im so happy I did. Joe is very thorough. He is honest and provides top notch service with great prices.
Great service!! excellent prices and flexible hours. This is definitely the best auto repair ever heard of. check engine light diagnosis was exact right. fixed and passed smog
Very quick efficient service. Super humble and informative guy . If your looking for and honest hardworking mechanic!!! Come here seriously
I heard about Joe through my brother and decided to give him a chance since I havent been happy with the dealership I usually use and let me just say Joe will be my new mechanic for all my future services. Its one thing to find an honest mechanic but its amazing when you find an honest mechanic who do a quality job with very affordable prices. He explained everything thoroughly and consulted with me before doing the work and even found an issue that I didnt know I had and potenially saved me a lot of money. My brakes feel safe again I will tell everyone I know to come here for any auto work especially brakes! Thanks Joe.
I will not go any where else to get my work done from now on. Absolute honesty and integrity. Joe shows that he cares about my experience at the shop and really takes pride on his work to be done right.
Joe, great mechanic, knows his stuff!
Honest work from an honest guy. Joe is an awesome mechanic and makes sure to give your vehicle the attention it needs to get you back on the road in a safe vehicle. Save time and money and just go to BREAK TIME AUTO REPAIR.
Great service at good prices. If you need repairs on your car take it here to Joe. He will do the work the right way and not try to sell you things you do not need. He is a solid and honest mechanic that will also do work at a lower price than those large shops.
I would recommmend them to anyone they are very quick and do great work i definitely will go back also very good prices i got my brakes, rotors and brake caliber done and im so far very satisfied thanks Brake Time Auto Repair 🙂
When I say the service is amazing I mean the technician had the car back in no time totally fixed and the best part was it was at a excellent price. Everybody come here and youll see how good it is. Being I was looking for places to go on Sunday with everybody closed and this being the last place I checked the worker said yes with no hesitation and my car is running better than ever.
Great and fast service. Very rare to find a shop that is open later in the day and on weekends. I had my brakes changed in about an hour. Reasonable prices.
Sorry in no way am I able to shorten this review up... I went to a mechanic December 27 (not Joe at Brake Time) and spend 709 bucks on front brakes and rotors, oil change, a belt and labor... February 7th was a Friday and I called them around noon and said my brakes all of a sudden started grinding really badly and may I just pop in for a second to see if its a rock or something simple cause I drive for a living.. however she told me she could fit me in on Tuesday.. Not lets get you in just incase the parts are faulty and you could be in danger but ummm does Tuesday work.. OMG!!So every Sunday I eat breakfast with the folks and I tell them this awful story and we looked online right then and there and called brake time.. It was Sunday before noon time and God love him he answered.. Told him whats going on and he said come today, and that I did.For 20 bucks he threw my car on the rack, took the front tires off and showed me on my car whats going on, and showed me what Ill need in the future via where why and cost.. I was so impressed.. and if he did the work hed take the 20 off the cost.. OMG!!709 is a lot of money so I grinded around town a bit till I could afford to do it yet again.. Now I called him on Sunday again, got in on Monday at 130pm... Wait for it... His hours of operation are m-f 4 to 9He literally came in early for my car..Hes honest and fair and will go over and above for his customers.. And.. And!! After all was said and done he walked me to my car and opened the door. A perfect gentleman. So ladies and gents of course if you need an honest mechanic or even a second opinion, call Joe at Brake Time you wont regret it
Excellent service! Went in to get my brakes fixed and a tune up, service was very fast and I was treated very politely during my whole visit. Will definitely be returning if needed!
Joe is a great mechanic. Friendly and courteous! Went above and beyond. He took his time explaining things that he was doing. Highly recommended!!!!
Excellent service!! Had my water pump replace on my 2007 Chevy Colorado. Joe is a great mechanic, with affordable prices.
Personable, fast and fair priced!It’s every persons worse nightmare when they have car problems! Our catalytic converter was stolen from our 02 Honda a couple weeks ago. We took it to the shop to have it replaced. The check engine light came on after replacing the converter so we then took it to an electrical shop to have it diagnosed. We were quoted $1300+ and were told we needed a new PCM that would need to be special ordered. After already paying $500+ to get the converter replaced, that was a very hard pill to swallow. My husband and I didn’t know if we wanted to put more money into the car since it’s already pretty old as it is only a commuter car to and from work, and knowing it wouldn’t pass smog in December due to the check engine light, we became pressed for time on whether to fix the problem or get another new car. We were then recommended to Joe (Brake Time Auto Repair) by a family member for a 2nd opinion. Joe responded very quickly and listened to the problem we were facing. We dropped the car off and within a couple hours, we received a phone call saying that the problem was fixed. He took the time to really look into the problem and realized that the 02 sensor on the vehicle was the wrong one, which was a much simpler fixed compared to what we were told from the other shop. All in all, he saved us over $1000. We are SO relieved! Highly recommend Brake Time Auto Repair if you ever have any car issues!!
Brought my car here on short notice for rear brakes. Very fast and efficient, great mechanic. Highly recommend Brake Time Auto Repair
My experience was great he was very helpful he was able to tell me what was wrong with my car not like other auto shops i had gone to they just gave me the runaround and had me pay for unnecessary auto repairs that did not fix the problem.
Honest,friendly, and one of the greatest work ethics in the business. Great survice and willing to go above and beyond. Fixed my parents car in a timely manner with excellent prices.
Good honest work. Work was done quickly.Owner is very friendly.10 out of 10 would recommend
