They took really good care of my car and the prices were very reasonable. I couldnt believe how fast my brakes were done and how small the bill was. I was prepared for the worst and had been jacked around by other mechanics in the neighborhood. Some of the more popular places treat you like theyre doing you a favor by taking your money and squeezing you into an already overbooked schedule, which is absolutely not acceptable. From now on if I need anything done I will call brakes for less first and if theyre not available Im going to need a Xanax.

Called for an estimate and got a great price compared to the rest. They were quick and professional. Im glad I found this gem.

I’ve come here twice for not minor repairs to an elderly, albeit very loved, Toyota that I’m trying my hardest to keep alive. The last visit was, on paper: knowing my transmission had bit the bullet, me needing their verification so I could send the beloved car I’ve had my whole adult life to car heaven. Though it’s a gamble, they offered to install a used transmission at a price I couldn’t ignore and ultimately won me over. Next day I was driving my baby again!And then I lost all gears said day.Towed it back to the shop, again expecting this was the end. Well upon further inspection they found the faulty component and replaced it free of charge! Look at the reviews here. They don’t lie. These guys are d@mn good and give a d@mn. I wish I had found them way earlier!

Great place. Great people. Honest work & very fair pricing!Highly recommend this place!

This place has been a lifesaver, the staff are awesome and they give you a fair price unlike a lot of places. They do a lot more than just breaks and are very understanding when you can’t get everything done at once. They won’t try to upswell you and they won’t try to screw you, they work fast and do a great job. They’re like your friend that you give a 30 pack to to fix your car but they have to make a living so they charge a fair price for labor. They saved me a lot of time, money, and headaches. They saved my brother about $1500 from what the dealer quoted. I can’t recommend this place enough!

Generally speaking, if you see a place that advertises For Less in its name, you kinda have second thoughts. And thats understandable. As with auto care, You can have it Good, Cheap, or fast as long as you pick 2.Here, thats not an issue. A no BS, kinda shop, These guys will bang out an issue with no issues. They are straight forward, on point with pricing, and honest. All within a friendly atmosphere that respects your time and money. Rare, do you find such a shop. They are a treasure for the North side when it comes to repairs and can do alot more than their Brakes For Less name implies. Try em, and see exactly what I mean.I dont speak Spanish. But they are VERY spanish friendly.

Reliable service center. Open 6 days a week and prices are always clear from the start. The lady at the front desk is super helpful. Took my 09 hihglander for an electrical failure on a Saturday and the car was ready in no time!

Professional and speedy service!!! I searched and searched...Brakes For Less the best price out there!!! They also took the time to actually show and explain everything that was happening with my car to me. I am more than a bit mechanically challenged...so this was extremely helpful!!! Thanks to all staff there!!!

Great work, they know what they are doing. I recommend the place.

Repairs more than brakes. I use this place as my cars mechanic. Low cost.

All the mechanics are very professional and get the job done right and very fastWould recommend to anyone. Good service with good prices!! Wont take my vehicles any where else

Ive taken my car here a couple of times now in the past two years and they always do an excellent job. The prices are very reasonable and they are very honest. They show you whats wrong with your car and give you a fair price. I highly recommend you go see Alvaro at Brakes for Less for any repairs.

Service was fairly fast, price reasonable and my car is now running great.

Fast service, reasonable cost, what else could you want? Great team of guys there

Beware of pricing, the guy in charge gave me an estimate of $260, when I was going to pay he said $280. I didn’t want to argue since someone had the same problem before it didn’t end it up well, if go there ask for a written estimate before any job done.

I went there first thing in the morning before they opened. There was already a line outside! So that tells me the business is very popular and must be good. I went for a much needed brake job. I was super scared they would charge me an arm and leg and my car is very old which turned previous shops off. All I wanted was my brakes fixed. Thank God they took my car with no hesitation! The price was right and they fixed it in less than 2 hours! I was back home in time for lunch! Definitely will be making them my go to maintenance shop.

Quick honest service..been around for years.. the only place to get honest work....they dont recommend nothing you dont need....

Very professional and fair pricing. Was in and out within an hour. Would highly recommend using this shop.

Great and friendly service. The brake issue was fixed quickly.

I rolled in an hour before closing with a car I couldnt drive back out, as two blocks earlier it had started leaking brake fluid. In 40 minutes they had replaced my rear pads, rotors, and a caliper, and the price was incredibly fair!

Incredibly fast. Honest. Fair prices.

Best place, Alevero is always a pleasure to work always ensures his customers know what they are getting done.

These guys dont just do brakes. I did get my brakes done there and it was an excellent job for less than anywhere else, with a guarantee. They did exhaust work for me. Recently I had a blown-out motor in my power window, they found the part and fixed it in the day. these guys are very honest very good work and I recommend them.

Faster and cheaper than most places. People are nice. Highly recommended

Love this place. Great guys thanks so much

This place is like one a million. They are great knowledgeable on what they do friendly do a great mechanical work price is really good. I do recommend it to however is the need for car repair services

Fast, nice & very professional! Highly recommended!

He is the most reasonable $$ mechanic I know, and he’s also quick. I basically go to him for everything.

Super quick and reasonably priced. Great customer service as well!

Those guys are great!

Extremely unprofessional, dishonest and dismissive. They trapped us in the garage after telling us to come inside, continuing to take cars who came in after ours. They refuse to speak with us as we attempt to leave because they are so busy with the cars between us. Zero communication and word not met. A 40 minute wait time has become a two hour wait, and we still can’t leave.There are many shops on this strip. I’d recommend any over this creepy place.

I trust these guys !

These guys are great. The offer good prices and they get the job done without waiting for Long time.They will tell you exactly how long it will take for job to be done. They changed my wheel bearing and they called me as promised on time. I will go back there to replace my radiator soon.

Thought I needed new brakes... But found out the type of break pad created the squeaky noises. I choose to change my pads to non squeaky pad for $100 since my car was already on the rack. Quick, honest and will use them again. Nice Guys working here.

Always a 5 star experience. Ill go way out of my way to take all of our cars here for maintenance. Last week it was an exhaust issue, last year it was bearings and a check engine light fix. Timely service and reasonable pricing, always. I kinda hate making them even busier but they deserve it.

The deals are unmatched strait up

I’ve been here for new brakes, oil changes, and battery replacements. The service is fast and friendly and the value is phenomenal. I’ve started recommending this place to friends and family and they have all been thrilled as well!

I googled this place and noticed how many people were satisfied with their service. Dreading the price, I decided to go ahead and get my breaks checked due to the constant noise I was hearing. Upon arrival, I parked my car in the wrong spot and one of the mechanics asked if he could move my car. Additionally, he asked what the issue was and I told him I may have to get the front and back done separately. He was extremely nice and understanding. I ended up needing both done and all new rotors. But the price and service was excellent! I was in and out within about an hr! This is my first review, but I had do a review on this place. Highly recommend going here! If you work at the shop and youre reading this, thank you!

Very professional and great customer services and busy all the time

Brakes for Less is professional, courteous, and quick. I needed brakes for my car. They had my car up and the brake pads exposed within 10 minutes of my arrival. The mechanic walked me out to my car and showed me which brakes needed repair. He gave me a fair estimate and about 30-40 minutes later I was driving away.I was very pleased with my experience and I could not recommend this place any more!

Affordable yet trustworthy. Customer service is great

Legit they do great work here

My go-to mechanic. They are friendly, affordable, and professional. I have a 97 honda civic manual trans with almost 200K and theyve helped me keep it in good shape.

Amazing experience- very polite and friendly. Showed me what was wrong and got the job done very quickly! Everyone there is super nice and knowledgeable,and even got a recommendation for services for another vehicle I need serviced. Took great care of my old car, will definitely be coming back soon!

This shop is awesome came in for front brakes and an oil change and these guys rocked it. Was in and out in a half hour and the best thing was they didnt break the bank. I recommend them to anyone!

Awesome Mechanic! Very reasonable prices and service is excellent! Alvaro is honest about his estimates and in the rare event that it changes he will call you right away to let you know! I have been coming here over 7 years with my wifes car and my own. I have sent many friends to brakes 4 less and they have all been very happy!

They tried to steal my oil filter (expensive),broke the oli drain plug and bu force plugged bigger(i found out on the next oil change when evan the new one would not fit .Their boss pools out the prices from the sleeve,if he see that you dont know what is wrong you are done.I had brand new rotors and pads instaled on my car, he told me i need new.If he cant get you he will tell you he is busy or if you accept his diagnose he will do quick job, poor quality what will make you to regret after few miles and hundreds of dolars.if you brig the part it my be not instaled or be replaced with bad one.or if he provides it will be junk.

Edit... my second visit (4/2020) got my oil change done and new pads and rotor on the rear tires. And they even bled all the brakes etc and now my brake pedal feels quick and responsive! Fast and awesome legit people.First visit - Great service. And honest service. They told me what was wrong and not wrong with the brakes. Will definitely recommend to my friends.

Alvaro is the best. Takes care of me better than Loeber Motors ever had. Loeber Motors put bad bad rotors on my vehicle and wants to charge $500.00 to change the oil. Come here. These guys will take care of your. My car runs better than ever. And Now i have not had any problems with it every since i brought it here. Thank you! They are good people who we are able to trust.

Fast, accommodating, fair price. Ill be back.

The owner is a very honest and fair person. I drive an hour and half just to have him look at my car. Every time I get an oil change at my hometown they tell me I need all these additional parts or work done in addition to my oil change. I always bring it over to his body shop afterwards for a check and after visiting him he always assures me my car is fine or if is not he definitely charges a lot cheaper than the other places. Always a pleasure to deal with them.

Always great, reasonably priced services.

I needed rear brakes and stopped in. They looked at the car right away and gave a quote 1/2 the price of the dealer. I said yes and they said it would only take 45 in so I waited. The bill reflected the quote and my car was in fact done within 45 min. Great place!!!! Highly recommend this place!

A good price and friendly, reliable service! Repairs are done quickly and if you go in for one problem, they fix it without trying to jack up the number of repairs you have done like some places are apt to do. The waiting area is very small so I always walk down to the corner restaurant for lunch while I wait. Not just a brake shop either, theyll take care of almost anything your car may need.

I have gone here now 2x. Great service and fast, without an appointment. And friendliest 7mechanic I have ever experienced. Very highly recommended.

Great and easy place to get things done!

Alvaro is awesome at what he does and his entire crew do a well job not only on doing what they need to do in a timely manner but also do a wonderful job at customer service and even showed me exactly what was wrong without giving me an overpriced quote. If there were more stars these guys deserve them, highly recommend!!

This place is fantastic. I had my brakes done last year and when I went back recently because I heard noises in my back brakes, they took a look and fixed the rusty brake pads under the warranty. Honest and helpful, i won’t go anywhere else and they have my full recommendation in the future.

This is a great auto shop. Reasonably priced. Hard working and trustworthy mechanics. Great work ethic!

Nice people and good prices. Fast and well done service.

This place is fantastic!!! I called 5 different places for the price on the brake pads and roaters on my Audi... everyone told me $350-500, i got the quote here $280 and got them replaced same day. Highly recommended

The mechanics are honest about price and don’t try to upsell you. They’re very good (and fast) at what they do. I paid $260 to have my front roters/brakes replaced and waited less than 1hr.

Decent place. Really is less expensive than Midas.

Really good shop no BS technicians

So helpful to me during stressful time. Quick, accurate diagnosis of a coil replacement had me on my way in no time for a very fair price. Great service!

Abe did a great job explaining what was wrong with my car and why they had to fix certain things. Thanks Abe for being awesome!

Like everyone says, good customer service and fast. I got my brakes and oil changed for a great price under 40 minutes walk in. They even helped me change my plates because a screw was stuck free of charge 👍

They know what they are doing and are inexpensive.

Very nice guys working there specially the owner I guess, he is really nice person. Will give you all the option to get the cheap product.

Cant beat this service and low, low prices! I will continue to return and bring more people!

The price is right, the work is right and they treat you just right. What more could you ask for in an auto repair place. It is not easy to find a shop that will work on Hummers but these guys can figure out just about anything.

I was there for the 1st time and last time i had to change my front and rear brake pads they gave me estimate of $90 than i called to other body shop and got the price of $ 70 so i asked the guy will you do for 70 he went inside and asked his manager or supervisor he goes ok will do it but at the time.of payment they says its $90 and blaming me you lied to us.They are cheater dont go to them.

Went in today because my brakes were making horrid noises. They were quick to look at my car and give me an estimate even though there were a ton of other cars being serviced. They replaced my front and rear brake rotors and pads for $480. It only took about 45 minutes and they called me as soon as they were done! Would return.

Excellent and very fast service, fair prices and very friendly. I will come back and I would recommend this place to anyone.

Stay busy...

Dont know what they are doing bad job

I drive here frome Arlington heights because I love their service. They dont over price and and the service is fast and friendly.

Came in here with very loud grinding breaks and they fixed them for $260.00 in less than 45 min. They were very nice and professional.

The people are great .They speak spanish, price are great and good to get job done in time.

Good price and fast service

Good price and great service. No appointment needed

It was just good and the kids enjoy

Always fixes my car and reasonable. I dont take it anywhere else.

Honest, reliable mechanics who completed the job in a timely manner.

Poor service drove an hour away with bad brakes and was 3 mins late from when they stop taking people and turned me away terrible service was even willing to leave my car and they said no
