Because they used to be the best in Tallahassee I went to get an estimate and quote. What I ended up with was a demand of $88 to check out my car, advice to defer the brake job, a $114 bill to change the brake fluid, a light on the dash that they told me was the check engine light that didnt actually that, and later when I got my tire pressure checked somewhere else it was pointed out Ray Gordon had not replaced sensors properly and of course the light went out. Go there at your own risk its not what it used to be!

Website looks about 20 years old but they sure know how to service brakes. They could double their revenue in one year if they just upgraded their website and IT profile. Ray Gordon is a Tallahassee Gem. Your website should reflect this.

These men are probably the most honest guys in the business of auto repair. I went in thinking I needed to replace all of my brakes. They assessed my car and then determined I only needed the front brakes and I had about a year left on the back. I took my car to Ray Gordon twice and have been extremely satisfied with all of their work. Furthermore, the follow up each service with a courtesy call just to make sure everything is ok. Very professional, highly recommend.

These are truly professionals and know what they are doing. The Dodge dealership tried to tell that I needed just rear brakes and rotors. Ray Gordons found my front front brakes almost metal to metal and I didnt need rotors. I got all four wheels done and a brake fluid flush for tha same amount Dodge was going to charge me for just a back brake job. They are thorough too. Great job! I highly recommend Ray Gordons for your brake srrvice.

These guys have saved me a lot of money over the years. They simply dont sell what you dont need. Dont get me wrong, Ive had a few vehicles coat a little bit more than others but long story short: I went to a tire shop the other day to get new tires and was told Id need new brakes so I decided to get a second opinion and Im glad I did. Ray Gordons did a full inspection, flush and adjustment and the brakes are working just fine .Dont fall for the pad slap and new rotor drain the other guys want to give you. Take it Ray Gordon !]

Went in believing I needed new brake pads because my brakes were squeaking. After going in and informing them I needed new pads they said it would be 40 to check it out and they would let me know what they would cost.After inspecting them I was informed my brake pads actually had a good bit of life left in them and the squeaking was caused by something else. Saved me a good bit of time and money. Really appreciate honest local businesses will definitely go to them again!

Went to have my brakes checked because I was hearing squealing noises when I was braking. Said they checked them and didnt hear the noise. Yet on the way home the squealing noise was still happening. Wont be going back to the BRAKE specialist.

Excellent knowledgeable mechanics. I have a 2018 Range Rover and that no one else in town was able to service the brakes because they did not have the knowledge expertise or equipment needed to remove the rotors or the computer software needed to put the vehicle into service mode. I got a quote from over $1300 at range rover to fix my problem and we did a complete fluid swap out and corrected my problem for under $300.. very excited to find a shop in town thats not after the almighty dollar and does great work at a reasonable price. Jet used his 29 years of experience to correct my problems fast and efficiently. Thanks LimoMike

Recently had a front brake job completed. From the scheduling over the phone to the completion of the job, nothing but excellent service. I mentioned that i thought at least on side may require a new rotor. Prior to commencing the job, the technician came to the waiting room and explained that a new rotor was not needed. He could have just as easily sold me a rotor without me knowing the difference. I appreciate the speedy and honest service. I would highly recommend this business to anyone. I have done business here throughout the years. Always the same level of service.

I have taken down my incorrect review. I was unaware of the issues and reasons behind those issues. I got my Civic 2013 serviced at this shop and got it serviced, there were other issues stemming from bad tires which were explained to me upon my complaint and subsequent visit. I appreciate the professional service at this place and will continue to get my car serviced here for any braking concerns.

Great people, honest, and good value! Read a review on here talking about watch out for this place. They dont know what theyre talking about. They havent even been to Rays. Their whole review was based on what their friend said and whatever parts they buy at a parts store and doing it themselves compared to a professional shop with a much higher overhead. Why buy a house already built when you can go build your own house and save some money?!

My daughter is in school in Tallahassee and we are in Atlanta. She called us to say that her car was making a funny noise, when she would press down on her brakes. I told her that sounds like her brakes were scrubbing. I went online and found Ray Gordon Brake Service. I had her to take her car to them, they inspected the brakes and gave us an estimate and we had them to replace them. They were very friendly, courteous, worked in a timely manner and the price was affordable. We are very satisfied with the service!

I shopped around at several locations and with the AdMax coupon, this was among the beat deals, plus its a local small business. They did a great job on my front brakes. I will return for the back brakes. I recommend them. One downside is they arent open on the weekends, but its worth juggling your schedule for.

They did a swell job! I had to take it back to get the brake flush redone (it wasnt fully bled the first time around). But they were more than happy to do that and consult me on a non-related issue, which I was happy they did. Thanks!

The only reason they get one star is because it won’t let me give them zero. They did work on my rear breaks and the first time I take my truck down a dirt road the bolts on both the calipers that they worked on rattles off. The front breaks that they did not touch were both fine I called them to see if they would work with me or honor their labor and they refused. One thing you should not mess up is some ones brakes and by doing so they put my life and families life in danger. I will be posting this on all social media and contacting local news media to spread the word on this company that does not stand by their work so that they do not endanger other people lives. Keeping all records and parts and several pictures.

Have used Ray Gordons for my wife and my childs cars. They were able to help figure out the hard to pin point issues and fix them for us and very reasonable prices. My family will continue to trust and use Ray Gordons. Thank you

Review №36

Went to these guys for squeaky brakes and was told I would need a $650 master cylinder replacement. Went to a different shop for a second opinion and the only problem was dirt in the rotors, which cost $85 to get cleaned at the second shop. I saw the guys at ray gordon with my car on the lift and tires/pads/etc. taken off so they definitely saw the rotors. Either theyre incompetent to the point of making $650 mistakes or they were trying a scam. Either way, bad business and disrespectful. Pretty sure they saw a young, probably naive person and attempted to rip me off. I would not trust ray gordon brakes with anything and feel bad for anyone theyve tried this on successfully.******I would like to have the refund, if you could advise me on what information you might need and how to go about receiving said compensation. Thank you.

These guys were great! I have a Buick and was having serious problems with my brakes to where I wasnt even comfortable driving. I first took my car to A+ Dealer Alternative on a Friday and they said they would be charging me over $850 and wouldnt have my car back until around Wednesday. After talking to a mechanic friend of mine, I found out they were WAY overcharging me. I called around to some brake specialists and ended up deciding on Ray Gordon. On Monday, I had my car towed from A+ over to Ray Gordon and they not only took care of my brakes, but also fixed a problem with my tire rod that A+ didnt even tell me about. And they got my car to me Monday night! Being a younger girl, I was worried about being taken advantage of but they were very honest, thorough, and efficient. Id absolutely recommend them!

Had a friend call me a few minutes ago. They went over ray gordons to get the brakes checked and get an estimate. Wanted to charge her $450 for pads and rotors and a clean and adjust on the rear, which takes 5 min. What a rip off. A set of ceramic pads and rotors with a clean and adjust shouldnt be more than about $260 on most cars. Watch out for this place. Parts cost $80 from autozone with a lifetime warranty. It takes 45 min to do.

I called and asked if they worked on Prius brake systems and was told yes. After they looked into it and the master cylinder actually needed replacement, I was told to go to Toyota. Still had to pay $88 for them to refuse work.
