Brakes Plus – North Central Colorado Springs

Love this company and this location. If you want it done right the first time, get your car in here! Friendly and KNOWLEDGEABLE STAFF AND MECHANICS! The skill level is incredible and the honesty impeccable.
I wouldn’t take my vehicles anywhere other than here!

Had them check out my cars brakes. Everything was top shape. Although they didnt take off the wheels (it was during the snow storm), they did verify the brake booster was working and the hard pedal wasnt a problem.

My jeep had a weird smell by the back tire and the only thing I could think of was something brake related. I saw an ad for a free brake check and thought it would be a good place to start since I was clueless and it was free. I was in and out in less than an hour and my brakes ended up being fine. Somehow there was plastic underneath that was burning off and smelling weird and I also had a coolant leak. They said a dealership would fix it for free because of the warranty and that’s exactly where I took it and what ended up happening. I’m so glad they didn’t take advantage of the fact that I’m a woman and pretty clueless about maintenance issues!

These guys are nothing more than dishonest crooks. Lied to my wife to her face that she needed $ 521.00 worth of repairs. Took her car to Meineke on Academy today — she had 60 percent left on her brakes and only needed rear brake adjustment. $ 49 plus veterans discount. If you want to waste good money, by all means go see these thieves, LOL.

Helpful and very courteous staff. Well priced service. I’m ashamed to say I lost the card he gave me but the gentleman who’s name began with a «V» went above and beyond with customer service. Highly recommend.
UPDATE! Went in again for a broken shock, once again helpful and quick and well priced. This time it was Mike that helped me and he was very nice and professional. THANKS AGAIN!

Took my car in today for new brakes/​rotors; they quoted me a little less than half of what someone else quoted me. And they applied as many coupons as they could without me asking. Very friendly staff, all knowledgeable and helpful, and best of all no pressure offers to fix unnecessary parts. Pretty much exactly what you’re looking for in mechanics!

I no longer live in Colorado Springs, but wanted to give Brakes Plus a review for all the times I brought in my Honda Accord. Usually it was just for an oil change and tire rotation. The staff was always friendly and helpful, and never once was I told that I «needed» new equipment that wasn’t actually needed. One time they did recommend new brakes, and brought me out to see my car on the lift with the tires off so I could actually see that the brake pads needed replacement. In my mind, it doesn’t get better than that, pure honesty from the mechanic.
I also brought my car in once because the battery was acting up. They did a bunch of electrical tests, ended up recharging the battery, and then gave me the keys and said «no charge, because they really didn’t do anything.» I was shocked!
If I still lived in CO Springs, there’s no other place I would bring my car. Great service all around.
