I have been using Brake Authority for the last 2 years and I highly recommend this auto repair shop. They are super efficient with their work and satisfaction always guaranteed. Everyone from the owners Steve and Oscar to the mechanics ( Jay is the best) are fantastic.Prices are very reasonable!Thank you guys and keep it up!
Very courtesy and friendly. They knew right away what was wrong with my baby car. It was taken several days later and the crew remembered me and the car they did a marvelous job on my car. They are my permanent mechanic for my baby Blu car
I have always bring my cars here, it’s been about maybe 4 or more years and several different cars. These guys are always happy to help, never in a rush, they will charge fairly, quick service. Never have I had to go back because they messed up. Always great work. I just went to jiffy lube and the guy there said take it to brake authority, I’m like I always go there, he’s like those are my guys 🙂. If you want a job well done take your car here. They are currently working on my 2013 charger and found the problem. I’m very pleased. Thanks guys keep up the good work!!
Brake and Muffler did an excellent job on my 98 1500 chevy trk.superb job.t.y.
All Im gonna say is that I know you lied about the price for that part. Your staff is very unprofessional. Lucky for you, we followed our gut, that told us to drive by and check on our truck that you left outside with our car keys inside your shop as the tow trucks are towing all the cars, that your staff did not label. After our first incident I knew you were bad business. One of the first things you said was to trust you. Had we stayed home that day. Our truck wouldve been gone, claiming it will take a week for the truck to be ready. I wouldnt recommend you to my worst enemy
My whole family have been using their services for past 20 years, they are reliable, honest, and very kind, I definitely recommend Steve and Oscar for their amazing services.Thank you
I have taken my Porsche 944 turbo several times in the last month for different causes (steering, overheating...) and each time Oscar and Steve have fixed it fast and properly priced. I will keep comming back. Good job!
Oscar and team replaced my cat converter. Great job👍. Thanks.
Great service. Must visit for a quick car fix.
I brought in my Buick 5 months ago because I needed front rotors and brakes. I started getting a vibration in the front and took it to the dealership, who told me that my rotors are warped and it would be $380 to recut them. I went back to Brake Authority, which quoted me $80 to recut, but instead of recutting them, they replaced the rotors for free and had it done in under an hour. The service is amazing and I will be coming here for all my vehicle needs.
Highly recommend. I will never take my car to the dealership again. Fast, efficient, courteous and very fair in pricing unlike dealerships. They also have a computer that can read every car for electrical issues which I was told by my dealership that few have when replacing my sensors. Im extremely happy and will continue to use their service!Had to return for tire sensors. Again, amazing and reasonable and fast! Thanks guys! And thanks Oscar for going to pick up the sensors!
Oscar, Steve and his crew offered fantastic, accurate and quick service. My vehicle needed a decent amount of work as they were fairly priced as well. I would strongly recommend their team!
Best place for brakes. They are so knowledgeable. So nice and fast. Thank you so much Jay for taking such good care of me. The owners are the nicest! Thank you for always taking care of me. I highly recommend brake authority!
Very good services. Thrust,Honest and good prices.They are number one on the world...BEST MECHANICS STEVE,OSCAR,ALLAN.GOD BLESS THEIR HANDS AND WORK.
I went to brakes and authority referred by another auto shop who couldnt fix my problem. I appreciate his sincerity!Someone at brakes authority greeted me pleasantly and asked for my complaint.Surprisingly he asked to test drive the car. I said surprisingly, because 3 days ago I went for maintenance at my car dealership and I asked my representative to ask his mechanic to please test drive the car to what the mechanic said: no!So this gentleman from brakes Auth. Quickly offered to test drive and I was happy already with the service although no service had not been rendered.The guy quickly pointed at the problem and said its easy to solve.Back at shop the mechanics verified the problem, the same guy that test drove my car gave me a quote, I asked him: when can it be fixed and he said now!I was impressed by the diligence of the shop trying to help me get my car fixed and getting it ready within today. That was a plus!I appreciate the promptness in which my car was serviced. I appreciate the test driving experience and the explanation of my potential problem.I appreciate that my pet was welcome into the shop. 😊
The service was absolutely great. They were able to quickly identify the problem with my car and fix it once and for all. I had taken this car to several mechanics and spent a great deal of money without success, but the Break Authority guys took care of me. The price was very fair and the turn around super fast. I wholeheartedly recommend this shop to anyone needing an honest and fair mechanic.
I have known the owner Steve for over 30 years since he started at Brake World in Miami shores on US 1 and I was in high school. I take my BMW here for maintenance and repairs. He has a great crew starting with Oscar who is the best auto tech Ive even seen. I come to this shop regularly and aside from having great prices, I feel that Oscar does the work on my car as if it were his own. The VIP treatment is always there, I never have to wait long and I always leave happy. I recommend them for any kind of work, they are A+ and just a few block away from l-95!
They are the best in town good service good price
Great quality work with fair prices. The mechanics are very knowledgeable and go beyond to make sure you leave satisfied.
I stopped today at this place to ask for an oil change quote for my car. I spoke to a gentleman named Jay, who explained clear and simple what my car needs it and how much it will cost.To my surprise, I realized that for years I been paying double of what the real cost was. I am not a mechanic so I usually follow the recommendations of the service adviser. I am truly impressed with the honesty, excellent customer service, and timing of my visit. I highly recommend it, thank you very much Jay you got a new customer.
I used them for years and trusted them. They convinced me I needed a new transmission and put it in wrong. This caused more damage to my vehicle and I had an accident on the highway because of it. I will never return. Im still trying to correct years of work they did on my vehicle and felt like I almost died because of it. I dropped from 70 miles per hour to 30 on the highway when the transmission fell out. When I contacted them they made a number of excuses to why it happened. I had to replace my transmission in another town just to return home. The mechanic there informed me that it happened because it was installed wrong. Aside from that, over the next 6 months I had to get all the work redone that was done there over the course of the prior year. Each new mechanic commented about the work done on my car and how they never seen anything like it. Years later because of the transmission issues on the highway, Im still repairing the car.
Fast and amazing job
This is the one of best mechanic shops in Hallandale Beach, The Brake and Muffler Authority.I toke my car to the neighbor shop and theres no point of comparison .Had front brake rotors and pads replaced for lower price than other shops charge. Got me in right away. Great service. Honest and Friendly people. I think I found a new place to have all my cars serviced! Will be back for sure!Thank you Steve and Oscar
I took my trailblazer there and I will always return back with any car I have!! Steve is honest and his staff knowledgable and skilled. I am so happy I met you guys, what a blessing. I just referred someone to you today from Miami beach. I told her its worth the trip and you cannot get better service, honesty or price. My thanks always!!!!
This place has been really good to me and my family, every time we get a new car they go above and beyond to service it and maintain it without having us spend unnecessary amounts of money. Steve and all the other guys are very honest and not out to steal your money I will continue to come here as long as I live in south florida. I recommend anyone to go there for anything mechanic related.
Great Service & Great Customer Service 💙
Honestly this place is great. They have good prices and the work gets done so fast! Steve and Oscar are great mechanics and have never given me any issues. 10/10
Is very hard to find honesty mechanics they are awesome! Very honest and fair prices, staff very friendly and knowledgeable! I highly recommend them!!
Family business very knowledgeable and honest.
Great Customer Services
Clean, quick, honest service is all I have to say about this place. They worked on my car in a timely fashion. Mechanic is knowledgeable on every question I had. Service was done quick and right, something seldom seen around here. If you are looking for a good place to have your car serviced right, I recommend them.Thanks Guys!!!2007 Mazdaspeed 3
I needed a 100,000 mile maintenance on my vehicle. Had gotten another estimate. These guys were great! Were very honest, showed me the parts, and only replaced what was needed, and were very reasonable. I cannot recommend these guys highly enough!
These guys are amazing. I had gone to a different place first for alignment and the other place told me I needed to replace the tie rods and had quoted me $500. I told them I was going to get a second opinion and thats what brought me to Break Authority. As soon as I got here, they immediately put my car up on the lift and showed me everything that was going on. They explained everything clearly, especially the fact that I did not need to replace my tie rods, they were in good condition.I did get my breaks replaced at a good price.I would recommend them.
Customer service here is always world class, to say the least.You dont feel pressured at all. The price youre quoted will remain the same. I was told that my car would be ready by noon the following day, and the mechanic called at 1145am saying Im all set and ready to go. My exhaust manifold was cracked. Now, my car runs like a dream, and its so quiet!If youre on the fence between two places to have your car repaired, choose JD Auto Repair! I promise you wont be disappointed!
Just moved here from New York. Shortly after I got into a car accident and happen to stop by this shop, Steve was a tremendous help! He went out of his way to help me fix my car for a great price. His mechanics took their time to bring it back to great condition. I would highly recommend his service to any. I my self will only be taking my car to him.
Best mechanic shop!! honest people and great prices, been taking my cars to Brake Authority for years. Keep up the great work Oscar and Steve!!
Amazing service. Their sufficient and provide great customer service. My car broke down and I needed my EGR VALVE and my coolant temp sensor replaced. My car is running like it should be. Definitely will recommend them and will come back again for other services.
Very satisfied, I took my car to Break Authority twice and every time, I am happy with how they fix my car. Steve and Oscar are very fair, professional and honest. What else I can ask from a mechanic ! Thank you Steve for being very patient to explain to me clearly the damage my car had. I already recommended you to many of my friends & relatives.
Been going to them for the past 6 years. At 76 years of age, I need people that I can trust fixing and maintaining our 10 year old car. Steve and Oscar always adopt the attitude of family and stand behind their service and skills.
I have a story to tell to many of these reviews I see with complaints. Im a woman who is skeptical about mechanics, and so Ive leased from the day I sold my 1st used car. As many womens reviews mention lies theyve had, and how mechanics fix things that were never broken. I hear Ya!!! However, today I realized that I have to try to trust mechanics, st least Steve and Oscar... I first went to Brake Authority with a car just purchased to have a maintenance check; oil, power steering, cabin filter, all the normal wear and tear done by the expert mechanic Jay. A day after my car was losing oil, so I took it back. It was an O ring gasket which they fixed. A few days after my car was roaring inside motor which I took to Firestone to get it diagnosed, since Brake Auth. was extremely busy. They said it was the air intake hose which was torn and car not getting correct air exchange and showed me they also left the air filter box opened. I went back to Brake Auth to claim for this piece as no-one had opened this since Jay checked my clean air filter. While making my complaint with them placing blames which was going nowhere, I asked Steve calmly and teary to please just order the piece so the hose can be fixed and I would pay for it.. Gave them the benefit of a doubt, knowing the rubber had wear and tear. So the next morning Oscar and Steve placed the new air intake hose on, but before doing so, they both promised me this would not solve the noise problem Im hearing. They again and again said it was from the front wheel hub bearings. By now I had lost trust from both of them since I had to come back to get things fixed they should have noticed from the beginning. Jay should have noticed and told me about the radiator hose leaks, but I get it... They probably dont want to overwhelm customers with a list of 20 repairs needed totaling $10,000 all at once to someone who just bought lemon...in reality few people will pay that to fix their used cars. So I left after they placed intake hose, and sure enough it was roaring louder than ever. I should have gone back to brake auth and said to Steve, and Oscar, u know YOU WERE RIGHT!! however, I decided to go to the dealer to confirm what Oscar n Steve had already confirm... Theres no way I can enter your store again out of shame, and respect. I can only express my experience with them and suggest to every customers to trust them, ask questions, make sure when they tell you every repair needed you dont create a mistrust. Used cars need repairs, and its up to you to fix the dire priority. I believe Brake Authority are being honest for the most part. Theyre highly experienced mechanics. Would have given them 5 stars if they would have written a list of all the problems my car had instead of fixing as I discover them. Showing customers all the repairs needed helps them prioritize, and also plan ahead financially, and whether to sell the car...Thank you Steve and Oscar, it was the wheel bearings..
Great service jay was very professional a good mechanic and steve was good at the service and management side. very happy with the job
On the second day of a short stay in the area, we developed a serious brake problem. Not being familiar with the shops in the area, I did a google search and Brake Authority was one of the listings. Due to many favorable reviews, I decided to take the car there.I called first to see if they would have an opening to check the car and was assured if I was able to arrive soon they could get it in. Shortly after arrival the car was taken in the shop and I was soon shown what the problem was and what would be done to fix it. The explanation was thorough and easy to understand. In addition to the main problem, I was also shown the front brakes were in need of service and this was supported by the use of a gauge to show the amount of wear.The car was fixed in a reasonable amount of time and I had no issue with the cost for the amount of parts and work done.The thing that made a strong impression on me when deciding where to take the car was the fact that the owner responded to the reviews left. This made me feel that the customers opinion was important and a sign of a good business. I found everyone I dealt with to be friendly and pleasant and wouldnt hesitate to recommend this shop to anyone.
Very good & fast service so 5stars or more 👍
These people are so honest and hard working. The best mechanics are here in Hallandale. They diffently where a blessing in such a difficult time. They really care and if you dont bother them they even do a better job. I see some difficult customers. I will be back in the future. Great people Im very lucky!
Best price, top quality, quickest service. Long establisted business. Just super.
Nice car wash. Hand wash, no brushes to ruin your car. They did a great job on my car which had been bashed by love bugs
Had a great experience working with Steve. He is extremely honest and his prices are more than fair. His shop is my new go-to mechanic for sure!
Great quality and service, Oscar is such a great manager he is always looking ways to fix your car issues.
Trats you like family and always give your the best price!! Does an honest job thats what keeps me coming back!
I just had my car fix here 2 weeks ago. Very honest and nice guys there. The job is excellently done. I would recommend anyone to this machanic shop.
Ok
Very honest and affordable. didnt stick me with a large bill for a minor issue. the guys are great. definitely my new mechanics
I went to JD to have the catalytic converters replaced on my truck. I had all intentions of changing both of them, but JD checked it and told me I only needed to change just one. Other places wanted me to change them both costing me twice the amount I really needed to pay. This was my first time going to him and let me tell you he has now gained a new loyal customer... Thank you JD...
These people are absolutely great and honest people. I just took my car here to check on my transmission because I thought there was a problem with it and instead of lying to me and taking my money they were completely honest and it wasnt a problem.! Great Service!!!
Really great auto repair !!!!!! Had to change my 2 axles and altenator plus my two belts in the engine. They did with in hour and half. Very polite and nice people working here. Thanks guys
Honest place. I came to change my Brake pads and Steve said they dont need to be changed. He saved me $$$.
Always great service and great people. Super helpful!
Great super prompt service. JD is a honest mechanic and a guy who appreciates customers. I definitely recommend you bring your car issues to this facility.
The only mechanics I truly trust. Theyre honest and will show you exactly what the problem is on your car, and tell you all the options you have to repair it. Wouldnt bring my car any where else
Always honest and find like my family. they always fix my car without BS what it doesnt need to be done they will tell not to. thank you !
These guys are great! They work hard and they really have great prices. Awesome mechanic shop, will be back!
Great service. Friendly mechanics that break the info down and show and tell you whats wrong. Reasonable prices and timing is good.
Finally I find a great place,with a good prices and excellent service,that actually tell you what you really need.
He has always been honest with us about our vehicle. He is fast and efficent. Our vehicles are always ready before the time he gives.
Honest people fair pricingBeen in business for over 20 years
I have known JD (the owner) several years. He is the most honest guy around. He does very quality work as well.
Great mechanic shop been going there for over 20 years
This auto repair garage is our family favourite place to repair our cars.i just got my car towed 2 days ago to Break Authority and as usuall a great job was done, my car had a serious damage and was fixed the next very day, of course they had to get the parts ready for it. Never desapointed with the 2 owners who are mechanics themselves. I like the way they are: down to earth and professional. Thank you guys for your honesty, you are the only ones that i can leave my car with!!!
JD has been in business at this location since 1988 and runs an honest shop.No upselling, just quality work at fair prices.JD and his guys have done right by me for many years.
Best auro repair facility. Honest, fair pricing, easy to get to. Call JD for all your auto needs
I have been a customer for at least twelve years and not once did I have to take my car back for the same problem. Excellent service by Steve and his staff I highly recommend Brake Authority for all you car needs!!
Had a fair price and showed me exactly the brake work they wanted to do so I felt comfortable that they werent doing work that wasnt needed. Great, honest local business!
People Stop looking!! This guy and his team are top Notch. No Jerry-wrigging and straight forward. No junk parts, Serious explanations on what your vehicle is doing and needs in a prioritized way. Im telling you if you know just a tad of mechanical/electrical engineering you would just stop him in his tracks and say Well when can you start the job.. By the way his team is awesome..Thanks IRI..a perfectionists at work.
This place is awesome. JD is an honest, decent man who deserves whatever success he attains, because the work he does is always flawless. Val Tannenbaum, Weston
When my transmission died two years ago, I looked for the most affordable mechanic to repair it. Over two years later and my transmission is still working wonderfully.
Honest, friendly and excellent service and work. I will definitely be bringing my cars back to them in the future.
Awesome service JD is the guy you need to fix you vehicle. I have a Cadillac took it to get service at VERA CADILLAC only to found out my catylastic converter went out. Cadillac dealer quoted me for $2375, went to JD told him the whole problem, he quoted me for $275, he got it done in 45 minutes. Unbelievable. Dont even hesitate get your car service at JD. Good service, genuine guy, honest job. I couldnt believe it. If I had more money I woulda have gave them...
Did a great job on the vehicle, however, someone tried to remove the hubcaps from the vehicle while in their care and they fail to mention this!
Fair price and fast service, good stuff
This place is a SCAM. If you are a woman and dont know anything about cars please dont come here. They will give you the run around so you will pay EXTRA money. I paid $400 for a problem I didnt have. Come to find out it was a BLOWN HEAD GASKET. The mechanic told me I gotta pay $1500 LMAOOOO. Yea ok.PS. DONT GET THE WARRANTY THATS A SCAM ALSO.
Mooved from New Jersey to Florida had a problem with my Air conditioner in my car and Israel, the owner of Brake Kingdom took care very diligently, professionally, corteous and above all very honest. Looks like I found the Repair Shop that I was looking for. Thanks to ISRAEL and his Crew.
I took my 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee there for the brakes to be replaced with calipers. They did great service and the mechanic was very hospitable I was out of there in about 45 minutes.
Nice and friendly replaced my muffler in no time and it sounds great. Will be doing more business
Honest workers love the staff
This is a fantastic shop where you can go and get your work done right away and for a good price. No BS here.
Ceasar was a gem. Honest and courteous. I will #Always GO HERE!!!!
Very honorable.
I don’t know but they are weird, prices are a little high.
Had my hks exhaust installed here. They are very fast, and extremely friendly.
Very please with service seems honest
Took my Prius to change front brakes & mechanic didnt realize it was on N not in park. The car rolled and hit another car damaging my left side bumper. They took bumper and repaired/painted. But didnt put bumper properly and had to return to have them put bumper in place. FOUR trips to the shop because of their negligence!!!
This guy is completely rude has no respect. He clearly has issues and doesn’t know how to run a business
Honest business, friendly staff, and quality service.
I desperately needed help on a repair on my car, and turned me down and hung up the phone in my face because I was told they won’t touch cars if a different mechanic has worked on it previously. I was shut down and now I’m desperate. I wouldn’t spend my money here.
Great customer service,nice staff
Friendly, experienced and competitive prices.
No longer in Business was there for years but now no more I guess the boss retired
Great service
