πHonesty and integrity - both of these tags are at the top of there reviews, and I can tell you that they are 100% accurate. πBackground - I have had the absolute worst luck with my vehicle this past year and have been taken advantage of by numerous auto shops. Itβs been a headache, a heartache, and a lot of fixing mistakes that were caused by the people who were supposed to fix them. This past week when my car started shaking and the engine light started flashing, I had this sinking feeling of dread where I thought here we go again. I drove to the nearest auto repair shop, and Iβm so thankful for finding this place.The front office and mechanic staff were kind, polite and immediately took me seriously when I told them what I thought was wrong. They were upfront and honest, performed an initial inspection and immediately identified a couple of issues. It was a Friday and they packed with people getting work done on cars. They had to keep my car over the weekend, which was fine because I honestly couldnβt drive it anywhere lol even if I wanted too. They had a shuttle service that took me home and I was able to get on with my day.This morning they were able to pinpoint the exact issues that were causing my ignition miss firing, fix it, and sent a shuttle to my house so I could go pick up my vehicle - all in less the 5 hours.My car is running the best it has in a year. The misfiring has stopped and my car IS FIXED.FAVORITE PART - CBA has an amazing service where they text you images, including identifying issues on the photo, of what theyβre working on, as well as recommendations for service that you can approve or deny based on what needs to be done on your vehicle. It includes a break down of labor, part and inspection costs. This was the first time Iβve actually felt involved in the process when my car does things that I canβt control.Thank you so much for everything, my faith in car maintenance has been restored and I am never going to another shop again.
I took my girlfriend to this place to get her AC fixed... 3 different times, and they failed to fix the issue all three times. Giving 2 stars because their customer service is good, but I need to warn people to at least not come to this place with AC issues. They wont be able to fix it.
I went in for a basic oil change appointment and was impressed by the friendly, welcoming nature and the honest and professional service.Pete was very thorough in explaining each aspect of my visit, and I enjoyed the immediate feedback (with photos) on my inspection and the areas that needed addressed; along with what was in good working condition.The customer service experience at Christian Brothers Automotive in Shawnee is top notch, and I would recommend their services to anyone.
Went to Christian brothers for a rattling in my front end back in April. They said it was a loose lower control arm, replaced it, aligned it, paid about $1100 and it still wasnβt fixed. Moved to Florida, took same car to a local shop, said it was the sway bar ends, easy to find and fix, cost me less than $100 to have them fix it. I was close to having another Christian brothers here near us look at it again but decided against it, and I am glad I did. I was debating posting this, but feel that in the automotive service industry itβs important to recognize when a shop does good work and when one doesnβt. In this one instance, I was sincerely disappointed. Great friendly crew, but let down by the actual work.
These folks did a great job of diagnosing and repairing my anti-lock braking system. It only costed $42 to make my van safe again. They also fixed the A/C so its much more cozy, too.
I have been taking my vehicles to CBA for over 10 years now. They have consistently provided excellent customer service... on time, only doing needed services, helpful communication, and giving us healthy automobiles. We will be here for a long time.
Everyone was very polite. Worked quickly to get the job done. Answered my questions politely. They had the option for me to be shuttled home while I waited for my car to be done. All around great experience.
I had taken my vehicle for oil change. The technician could not unscrew the oil drain bolt manually. They then tried to open the drain nut with some impact tools ( technician asked me to step away and he was wearing ear muffs while operating that tool. Some time later they brought the vehicle out and said that they could not remove the drain nut and hence could not do the oil change. They asked me to take it to the dealership.When I went to the dealer they inspected the vehicle and said that the oil pan was dented due to improper use of a impact tool. The oil pan now needs replacement !! When I checked back with Christian Bros they refused to take any responsibility for the damage done and kept insisting that the dealership that serviced the vehicle previously was responsible as they had over tightened the drain nut.This in my opinion is very poor customer service.
I am so grateful that they have a shuttle services. I have had to take advantage of the shuttle service several times. I appreciate that when I walk in they know who I am and call me by my name. That is a sign of excellent customer service.
Iβm very pleased with the work done on my vehicle. They are Experts at vehicle repairs and maintenance. Christian Brothers always has a safe friendly environment and gets your vehicle in and keeps you informed throughout on what needs to be done and costs so you can be prepared. They are very reasonable and the best in this area. I wonβt go anywhere else.
Christian Brothers, their work, and their workers are quality, kind, and trustworthy of your time and your vehicle. Would highly recommend and am so thankful for their service.
I got my car towed to Christian Brothers Auto on Friday night after a blow out on the Kansas turnpike. It stayed there over the weekend. When I finally got to it on Monday Scott came out to inspect the car with me and provided a game plan to get it back on the road. He went out of his way to make sure I got ONLY what I needed, picked up the tires from down the street because they werenβt in stock, reset the other back tire (it came off the rim in the process), and had my car ready to go by 6 pm that day. These guys went above and beyond to offer help at a really good price.
Very good customer service so nice it makes you want to come back, I got an alignment and one of the techs left a $175 snap on ratchet under my car and it fell out while I was driving π no damage was done and the ratchet was returned but if you use Christian Brothers you might just get a free snap on tool!
My deep complinents to you and your team. My wife trusts you with her car. Thatβs saying a lot. I have to ask her to drive it. You were great helping me with my F150. My daughter was impressed and iβm guessing youβve made a repeating customer.When moving to KC, it was such a pleasure to find a Christian business. Godβs blessings to each of you.
These professionals are the best. Second time I have been in dire need to have my 18 year old car repaired with them. They are so trustworthy and helpful. Truly a blessing to me.
UPDATE: Christian Brothers reached out to me to resolve the situation. They replaced my fender liner free of charge. Scott was very nice throughout the entire process.I went to this shop and got all four brakes, rotors, and calipers replaced along with other services. Spent $3000 for my front drivers side fender liner to fall off in the middle of the highway. Save your money and go elsewhere!
Was driving someone elses car and the pipe from the engine came loose from the muffler and was dragging. This happened not far from Christian Brothers. Although very busy, they quickly rearranged client cars, got this one in to secure the pipe from dragging on the ground so I could deliver the car back to its owner for repairs. They did not charge me. Great business. Ill take my car to them in the future.
I was very pleased with how professional, Luis, the Service Advisor is. He worked me in from out of town. The mechanics did great work and timely. When I went to pick the car up, it was raining. Luis took the keys and brought my car as close to me as possible. A gentleman, too!We will return here for full automotive work.
I would rate them as exceptional, everyone I had contact with was friendly, courteous and helpful. This was the first time I had work done there, I will definately go back and would and will recommend to everyone.
Disclosure: I did not receive services from this business.However, I did spend a lengthy amount of time on the phone with one of their techs in regards to a problem my vehicle was having. The tech I spoke to was extremely kind, patient, very knowledgeable, and eager to help in any way he could. He asked multiple questions about how my car was behaving, what had already been done to try to diagnose/fix it, and any other info that might have been useful in coming to a solution. Ultimately, we determined that my best bet was to take my vehicle to a dealership where I could get brand specific expertise. This is something I truly appreciate and respect in customer service. When a company or representative can say, βI might be able to do that, but I think youβd get the best results elsewhereβ that tells me that the customer is more important than the dollar. This is an upstanding company, and when I undoubtedly need service again someday in the future, I will be bringing my business here.
Christian brothers is a professional and quality business.. Ask for Torsten. He is amazing and really knows how to take care of your vehicle! Thanks, Torsten!
So very friendly and thorough in their examination of my vehicle...I have not yet utilized their services as I am still pondering whether to keep car or sell.
Always friendly and have great service.
They got me in the same day and were super friendly. Every staff member said hello to me as they came through the building. The business owners are the most kindest-hearted people I have met for an auto shop. I will definitely keep going back to them. I highly recommend checking them out!
Incredible. Stellar. The tootsie rolls are a nice plus.
They really came through for me on my trip from Colorado to Michigan. My engine seized due to a recall I didnt know about and they did a quick look and found just that. They did not charge me at all for anything. It was a true blessing. Super nice crew at the Shawnee location. I literally couldnt have asked for better in my time of need.
Fixed our 4Runner in a timely manner and did a great job! It runs so well now!
Very impressed with their integrity and the way I was treated. Total professionalism, kindness, helpful and they walk the walk, not just talk the talk. I am a senior and would recommend this location in Shawnee Ks. to anyone that needed the service they provide. They went above and beyond to get my transmission repaired at the price they quoted me. I am very thankful I went to them to get my 17 year old car repaired. The people there are really nice and go the extra mile to do their job.
These guys are great, my sister goes here all the time. She says they are honest and fair. The only reason I gave them a four star is the distance from me.
Looks friendly run for the customers and employees. Well maintained equipment.
Great service at a fair price.
The team there are top notch. Communication, quality of work, and no pressure they go above and beyond. I have been going there for years and highly recommend this location.
I was reccomend by Discount tires to go here. Took my car in to get an alignment. The cost was not overbearing to get it fixed. Very fast and professional. You have my business.
I went in for an alignment with a vehicle that is not very hard to align because of its age, simplicity, and condition. When the employee asked me why I wanted an alignment, I told him I had just bought the truck, and it was lifted with bigger tires (33 diameter, 12 wide) so I figured the alignment was off a little. As soon as I said it was lifted, he questioned their ability to work on it, assuming it had giant tires. After I told him the tire size, which is not all that big, he said they probably couldnt fit their aligning clamps around the tires. I told him I have friends and family with MUCH wider tires that have come in for alignments, and they got their vehicles aligned there with no issues. He still refused to work on it. Since they charge people for alignments that have bigger tires than me, it makes me think that they either lied to me about their clamps not being able to fit or they dont really align vehicles with bigger tires but charge the people anyways. This was a BIG waste of my time, especially since I had to wait several days for this appointment and the next available appointment anywhere else was well over a week away. Not pleased at all with my experience!
Professional & friendly! I appreciated the courtesy check of my car which brought important issues to my concern.
Always trustworthy and do great work!!
They are always professional and friendly. I trust them to take care of my car without adding services it doesnβt need.
Was told a price and when picked up they added on a few of $142.00 for a diagnosis fee. Normal repair shops are honest and include it in repair if repair is approved to fix.
Same day service. Particularly important.
This company has blessed my life so much. Every employee was so polite and friendly, like they had known me for years. We have now found another home. Bless your employees and their families.
This was the best body shop experience Ive ever had! The staff were super friendly, the place was very comfortable and clean, and they did an excellent job explaining things and helping work with you. Highly recommend!!
I have never in my 52 years ever had anything nice to say about a car repair shop... until now!This is a very true story! U ready for this??I took my Audi A5 in for a rear brake replacement. Dropped it off the night prior (they have a key drop), they called me the next day to ask me why I was getting the brakes replaced and that I didnβt need it done! I KNOW RIGHT!!!! Said no mechanic EVER!! But these guys did! They were honest and up front and weβre not going to do the work if it didnβt need to be done. I was so absolutely amazed I was ready to tell them to do something to it because now I wanted to give them my money! Haha ok that was a joke but anyway, they were absolutely amazing, professional, and very courteous. I asked them to give it the once over again and explained that there was squealing coming from the back. They called me back and said yes that on one side the inner brake was worn all the way down. They fixed it and was only half of the original quote.Love this place and they will have my business on ALL my cars from now on!!
We have been using this business for years, to find out they choose for us what services or products we need, instead of giving us the options. We have 4 vehicles! Lost our trust.
Took great care of a friend of mine. I was impressed how they went the extra distance to keep her costs down! So I went there to have them work on my alternator. They worked with Car shield and got the job done quickly! Thanks to car shield the service only cost me my deductible! They worked along with my insurance and the job was done in less than a day. I recommend them highly!
I have had a problem with an oil leak that Luis noted on 3 separate occasions. Luis told me to take my car back to the dealer because it should be covered under warranty. I took my car to a Honda dealer twice and they told me it was fixed. On this last visit to Christian Brothers in Shawnee they provided me with the previous invoices and pictures to take to Honda. They totally went above and beyond to help me get this problem resolved.
Yes you called me and I was not available at the time. But I called you back, and I was told to wait, but nobody answered for 7 minutes. I gave you a one stare review because of the exaggerated cost of the work that was done to my Chevy Malibu 2008. Your mechanic replaced two low beam bulbs for the price of $230 Knowing that the new bulbs were provided by me i purchased them at AutoZone. I googled the usual cost of this kind of repairs. It turns around $160 the parts included.
While itβs never fun to have a major repair and see how much itβs going to cost due to the level of effort and fair cost of the major part, Bill was honest and kind throughout the whole process. He showed my husband the broken parts without hesitation to ease his mind that we had made the right decision to go with Christian Bros for this repair. If you have to spend a lot of money for a repair, your want to have faith that you went with an honest company.
An AWESOME experience!! Straight forward pricing. Was given a list of the problems with my vehicle and the order of importance so I knew exactly what should be fixed and what could wait and little things I could do myself. I had just finished some frame and body work on an older Toyota Tacoma and wanted it to be mechanically sound before I drove it back to my son in Arkansas. It would have been easy to take advantage of the situation because of the age of the truck but the list I received of pending repairs and pricing was very reasonable. If you need repairs... this is definitely the place to go!!!!! Thank you for all your professionalism.
Had issue with blower on my truck. They got it fixed the same day. Great service and friendly staff.
Our experience at this location was phenomenal. We arrived a few minutes late to our appointment and they were totally understanding. They still got our car started right on time! As soon as we walked in the door we were greeted with hello and good morning by every employee. When we turned our keys over, Luis took the time to ask what I wanted them to focus on and look into the most being that we were there for a courtesy inspection. After the inspection was finished they walked me through what they found and texted me the evaluation report along with PICTURES of what need to be repaired. Iβve never had any auto repair company do this and it ensured that they werenβt telling us unnecessary things that needed to be fixed to earn a quick buck. 100% recommend this place!! Also, you will not be looked down upon if you do not choose to get your repairs done there or during that same day. They are AMAZING!
Professional and friendly. A/C seems to work fine. Kept me informed of what they were doing. No surprise upsells or additional costs. I have used them before with same experience.
Excellent experience at Christian Brothers Automotive Repair. Service done on time and they were able to find a discount on the four tires I needed before the service day. Also, everyone I spoke with was helpful and knowledgeable. Will use them again!
Very courteous and were able to get my truck in and serviced faster than I expected. They discussed a few issues they found upon inspection and offered advice on what needs to be done and what can wait. No high pressure sales or unneeded work done. Their estimate on cost and time were both accurate. They treat you like a person and not just some Idiot with a car problem. If you are looking for a place you can trust I would recommend them.
The company was a blessing because they stepped in and blessed my family and I when we are at our lowest.
Been here a few times; wonβt be returning
Wonderful place for my car and repairs and maintenance. Some of the best mechanics Iβve run across Iβm life. The are high tech. The text me with progress and when done too. They also will pick me up or drop me off at home too. Canβt beat that.
Everyone is very professional here. I can trust that they are going to fix what needs to be fixed and not add additional, unnecessary charges.
Staff was friendly, detailed, and helpful. Cost was reasonable.
So far so good with the brake job. They have a warranty of 30,000 miles or 3 years, whichever comes first and peoples, that you need to consider when you hear the price. I got a second opinion whod have done it for 1/2. I couldnt trust their guarantee.
Always thorough and professional. I wish this was more common. I always recommend this place and I will continue coming here.
Exceptional customer service.
It took them 2 hours for my oil change even though I was on time for my appointment, and Iβve never had an oil change take longer than 1 hour let alone 2 even with them looking into my check engine light. However, the staff was incredibly friendly which I did appreciate but I will not be back
I made an appointment for an oil change. I always expect to be told that there will be a long wait, but they were ready for me and the experience was pleasant waiting for the oil change. They also did a complementary auto fluid check for my vehicle as well as checked what maintenance was scheduled. Very professional and courteous staff. Everyone was treated as if they were a long time customer.
They are the best!! Highly recommended.
Terrific service and they never try to sell you something you dont need.
The staff is always friendly, and the work is always fair and honest. We started out going to them for oil changes and now call them for any kind of maintenance they are able to do.
Very respectful, extremely fair prices, incredibly quick work. Brought my car in with a bent tire rod and needing an alignment on Thursday; it was finished on Friday for a much lower cost than expected. Josh kept me updated the whole way, using easy to understand terminology.
If you donβt believe in God you will after you take your car to Christian brothers because there is no other place on earth like them. They are truly heaven sent! I wonβt take my car anywhere else and will recommend them to everyone! Thank you Christian brothers for everything you have done to help me with my car! Sincerely, Stacey Martin.
Super Friendly Repairs done fast and on time definitely recommend.
Cant say enough about the service we received. I called last minute and was told that they didnt have any appointments, but if I wanted to bring the vehicle out and leave it, they would try to squeeze it in. They did and also repaired the vehicle. Loved the integrity, helpfulness and thoroughness. Thanks for a job well done!
We didnt actually have them do the repairs because the vehicle issues were under warranty. But we were happy with the evaluation work up. Most of all I liked the environment, it seems like they do actually try to live up to a code of honor or respect. Im sure I would give them a 5 if we had more experience with their work.
Customer service went well they check my car out so before I left, I was assured that the problem I went there for was check out okay. Thanks guys
Very nice worker. They make u feel like family.
Truly amazing. For years I have gotten over charged and taken advantage of by car shops for being a female that is not truly educated about automobiles. I was nervous at first,but this experience with Christian Brothers has changed my perspective. I didnt have a way to the shop and was picked up by the owner,ther service was fast and truly affordable.I will continue to bring my vehicle to them and will be recommending them to everyone I know. Thank you all!
Extremely clean and comfortable. Was very happy with the services.
We purchased a used vehicle a few months ago. Had some issues at first, we thought were addressed. After the 30 days were up, the previous issues were back, but much worse plus other problems.We know without a doubt, God sent us to Christian Brothers Automotive in Shawnee, KS.***Ask for Josh***πThey are Totally AwesomeπVery KNOWLEDGEABLE, Caring and Compassionate.Keeps you informed and involved every step of the way in whatβs wrong and in decision making. Beyond fair pricing.We are very grateful to all that were involved.πHIGHLY RECOMMENDING THEM TO EVERYONEπGod Bless Yβall Always with Lots of Love and Prayers in Christ.
Im not pleased at all with my experience. I brought my car for a steering leak. They told my I had to change pretty much all the steering system for a $5500 repair. I checked the price for each part with the dealership part department and Christian Brothers were charging 2 to 3 times the cost the dealership have me. Bought the part I suspected was at fault for $200 and installed it in 2 hours. Car has no leaks and steering works perfect.
Amazing service everytime
Cordial and CBA tries to meet your convenience which they did.
You will be greeted with a friendly hello. The employees are knowledgeable and honest.The work is excellent.
Christian Brothers Automotive in Shawnee, KS saved the day and restored my faith in the automotive services industry. Long story short, I had taken the vehicle my 16 year old son will use as his primary transportation to another repair shop in Overland Park for what I thought would be a brake line repair. It ended up needing a bit more, but that OP shop also sent me multiple estimates for work that would total approximately $4,500. This is a 2003 Chev Impala.Thankfully the good folks at Christian Brothers gave this car an examination and was able to correct an error by the first shop, confirm the car DID NOT need extensive other repairs and my son has his transportation back. THANK YOU Scott and Tammie and your wonderful staff for being an honest, knowledgeable and caring resource for the community!! You have earned our familys business going forward!
Christian Brothers Automotive in Shawnee is the only place Ill take our vehicles. They were able to accommodate me, on short notice, for an oil change and a tire patch - with text updates (that was helpful) as well as being able to pick me up to retrieve my vehicle. Very nice people and I am glad to find a place that feels like a small town shop. Thanks to everyone there for making it such a great experience. Customer service is top notch!!
Always great service.
Best place around to have your car worked on. The team is amazing!!
Honest and car mechanic rarely go together, but they do at Christian Brothers. Here they treat you like a family member. Telling you what you need, should, and shouldnt do. They pass on selling you items you dont need and instead focus on building a relationship with their customers. They have courtesy car and a comfortable waiting room.
LOVE this place! The service was extremely affordable, they were very fast with the service, and they treated us like family. My son got to pick out a hot wheel and my daughter got a necklace. I also love that itβs a Christian ran business and that they are not afraid of being a Christian business. I highly recommend!
I went to the Shawnee, KS location to replace the tires on my car and have them mounted and balanced. I spent all of one hour total (max) until the job was complete. The staff was very friendly and the waiting area was also comfortable. I appreciate their quick and professional service.
I brought my sons car in and after having it for a day, they charged him 100$ dollars for an engine cleaning . When the car was picked up the SAME problem remained. My son is 17 and I feel they completely took advantage of him. We took it to another place and they fixed the problem
My review is of my experience near the end of November or first part of December 2017. I recently purchased four new tires from a tire store and there were coupons to Christian Brothers Automotive Shawnee. I took a coupon and planned to go there for an alignment. It took a couple of weeks and I made it there. There service was amazing, they took me to work and brought my car to me. These people understood and actually cared, on a personal level, of my situation (my husband had passed in October 2017 and we got a flat tire on our Subaru on the way out to the national cemetery. Subarus are 4 wheel drives, so we had to replace all four tires, this is after paying for a full funeral for my husband). Christian Brothers suggested new brakes and the turning of my rotors, which I did. They worked with me knowing all that I had been through and knowing that I needed those brakes (something that my husband was going to replace). It was a traumatic time for myself and my daughter, but it was good to know, honestly, there were people who were not trying to take advantage of me, who actually fixed the car, helped me get to work and delivered my car to me. God bless and keep all of these employees. I dont think they know who walks through those doors sometimes, but this time, it was me, and I am glad I did.
I liked everything. They are honest and friendly and they even love dogs! I even got a card in the mail, thanking me for doing business with them. I will always call them when something goes wrong with my car. They are family oriented and just down right good people. I cant say enough great things about them and their service!
These wonderful people helped a single lady like me to make big car decisions! They gave me quick and honest help and service on my car as well! In a digital world, they made me feel safe, loved and at home with real mechanics, who put the money last. Above and beyond care for sure!
They are very transparent. Not pushy about extra work, though do inform what needs to be fixed and what is optional. They provide pictures of all elements checked to show what doesnβt need fixed and what does. Very professional, courteous staff. Nice, clean waiting area.
Excellent service. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. .
Excellent business! Worked with Scott recently to replace an alternator. Extremely courteous, excellent communication, and more than fair pricing! Scott explained all repair options and gave honest advice. Repairs were performed properly the first time, and in an expedient fashion. Further... Scott stayed nearly 30 minutes after closing to ensure I could pick up my car the same night!Honestly, I couldnt recommend an auto repair company any more highly. I will most definitely be coming back whenever I need additional service and will recommend Christian Brothers Automotive in Shawnee to my friends and family!
Iβve consistently had amazing service at CBA for years, and today they continued to go above and beyond. I showed up for an appt that I thought was today but wasnβt actually for a couple weeks and they just went ahead and got me in, which was so kind. I know itβs hard to squeeze people in in service based industry and they were so nice and didnβt make me feel like an idiot! Great people & couldnβt recommend more.
I have taken my car in several times to get serviced. I am totally satisfied with the results, the knowledge and friendliness of the owners and staff. They are very honest, let you know exactly what needs to be done, and complete job correctly. I am really impressed and will continue to get my car serviced here.
Went in for a random check-up before a road trip. I was recommended close to 4K in repairs. I ended up spending 2K. After the work was completed my car was making a loud noise. I took it back and they quoted $750 to fix a part that was messed with during the original repair. I was also quoted 3 different prices for the same repair. One up front, one 30 minutes later, then one after I left. I think the front office works off commissions. There would be no other reason to say 800, then 650, then 400 dollars for the same repair. If you YouTube this itβs a pretty big problem with bigger auto repair shops these days. Good music and company name though.
Great people, great shop, honest and thoughtful ownership and staff. Claude the mechanic is an excellent technician, he really knows his stuff. I have a truck that has been in my family since 1993 and Christian Brothers is the only place I will take it for service. Alex who is their front office man is also very polite and easy to work with.
The Greens and their team had several opportunities to take advantage of me when I was put in a bad situation--they refused. At every temptation, Christian Brothers put the customer first. Excellent service and at a significantly better value than the dealer.My car engine unexpectedly burned up. Then, the replacement engine from the manufacturer was defective. The SECOND replacement engine was ALSO defective. Nicky worked with the manufacturer on my behalf to make sure everything was solved quickly and at no additional cost. She clearly communicated challenges and offered solutions in a positive way. Scott and Tammie Green, the owners, helped me with transportation and called throughout the process to make sure I was doing ok.There really ARE good people out there! Keep fighting the good fight and God Bless.Bill Early
I liked being able to talk to the mechanic who was actually working on my car.
