I was recommended to American brake Center a couple years ago. I have taken several of our families vehicles there for several different things. I am skeptical of mechanics in general. However, the owner and his employees do really good work. They appear to be very trustworthy and their prices are good. It’s hard to find a good mechanic you can trust. They are always honest and if they cannot fix it for whatever reason, they will recommend a place that can do the work and would be trustworthy. I highly recommend American Brake Center.

Our family has been using American for several years and Bill plus his team have always taken excellent care of our cars. Their service is done expediently and with precision while only factoring in the best cost for us. Having to mechanically maintain six different cars for all of us would be impossible without them. If a pretty daunting out there to find such a place when your vehicle needs work so we would like to recommend you go see them.

I hope that I am only the only person to have a bad experience. The manager was very rude, and clearly not customer centric. A very pushy shop, but I expect this from most. Of course, you who would not want the up-sell. Aside from this, he made my girlfriend very uncomfortable. She had to leave shop, because she did not feel comfortable waiting there while the car was finished. A couple days after picking the vehicle up for a brake replacement, my ABS lights came on, and I contacted the store to see if they would have an idea to the issue. I was not looking to blame, just get an opinion. They were very rude, and they were not sure when they would have time to look at it. I did not return, but had it looked at elsewhere. Oddly enough, the wheel speed sensor wires in the front where the brakes were replaced were both broken. I cannot say pinpoint the cause, but it looked like they were not attached properly, and had been caught/pulled. A few weeks later, the vibration when braking returned (part of the original issue for visit the shop), and continued to get worse. Although the calipers and pads were replaced, the rotors were not resurfaced or replaced, and the surface was not even causing vibration. So, I had to replace the rotors, and again the pads. What would have been a reasonably priced brake job, became quite expensive after all was said and done.

I had my rotors and brake pads replaced here a few months ago. Recently my brakes started squeaking again. Since it was still under warranty, I brought my truck back and they fixed the issue within a day. Another shop quoted me almost double for what I paid originally.

Got excellent service yesterday on my '17 Ford Escape. Could not ask for friendlier or more professional help with an ABS problem. Diagnosed and repaired same day. Highly recommend.

Have an old truck with rusted brake lines. Other shop quoted a crazy high price, but American Brake did the same work at a MUCH more reasonable price. Very helpful and friendly.

Amazing. They are very well priced, as well as knowledgeable in their field. Went to have brakes done, they not only did they machine the back rotors like another place quoted us, they also found a pulse in the front which the other place didn't mention. Instead of pushing new rotors on us, they said they were confident that it could just be machined. It's nice to go to a place when you know so little about something and feel like you can trust the people who work there. They worked at a fast pace and were polite as they could be, with an atmosphere that is welcoming. Can't recommend them enough. Thank you!

Scheduled an appointment the day before and arrived on time, but they were bogged down with work, so I was "worked in" as soon as they could get to me, which caused me to wait in the waiting room much longer than I should have with a pre-scheduled appointment. Service and quality are outstanding-have used them several times before, and will do so again when I need brakes. I do recommend them.

Being a female and not knowing much about car mechanics, it is so important for me to be assured that my car is in good hands with mechanics I trust. The guys are never pushing and always call me before any work is done to my vehicle and let me know how much it will cost and what is being done. I highly recommend American Brake on Bashford Ave. Ct. Great bunch of guys!

An excellent auto repair business. This American Brake Center has done a lot of work for my business and on personal vehicles, and Bill is patient, courteous and fair.

Trust The biggest issue I have with companies that sell the service is a will say you need to service when you don't and you need to feel like you can trust them. With American brake I have that trust. There has been numerous occasions I go in just for a brake inspection. And they come back and tell me if my brakes are in great shape they clean them up and I'm ready to go. The first time I saw them was after I went to a break Place who said I needed to have the rotors turned while my second know they have to be replaced. Did not have trust in them came to America break for a second opinion and instead of replacing them they were able to machine them.

I got my brakes and my rotors replaced here, and it was by far a great experience. Often times I feel auto shops like to take advantage of me, but the gentlemen who helped me seemed to honestly care about the well being of my vehicle & not trying to “pull one over on me.” I will definitely be back for my auto needs.

I had my brakes replaced in December. By August they started squeaking. I took my truck in to have it checked. They informed me my brake pads were fine. They took it for a test drive. When he heard the squeaking he informed me he would swap the brake pads out on warranty. He said he would never want someone leaving his shop without being satisfied. I enjoy having a shop that you can trust.

This guy took a car that was bordering street legality and not only made it work like new, but also did so at an extremely fair price. When other shops were quoting thousands of dollars, he said $600. When the repair needed a component that he hadn't foreseen to tell me about, he added it for only the cost of the part, not adding the cost of labor. This shop is worth your time, money, and trust.

Went to Brakeway and was told everything in the world was wrong with my brakes and I would need to pay almost 400$ to get it fixed. Went to American Brake Center for a second opinion. Was given an honest answer and a very affordable price. All I needed was rear brakes! Brakeway advised I needed a new boot, pins, brakes- front and back. If you're looking for an honest answer of what needs to be done and what's going on, I'd definitely go here.

Wouldn't take my car anywhere else for service. Trustworthy doesn't really do them justice. Great service, fair prices, if it doesn't need it, they will tell you.

American Brake Louisville is a must have for any engine service. They are much more than just brakes. They are my first and only source for all service. They amount of money they have saved me over the years is incalculable.
