I took my car to Brakes 4 Less after getting a high estimate for rear brake shoes from another establishment. An inspection revealed that the brake shoes did not yet need to be replaced, but a cleaning and fluid were in order. This was done, and I was saved an unnecessary and expensive repair! read more

My Nissan dealer warned me about my brakes. Since they screwed me with a simple O2 sensor replacement, I decided to do this job with Brakes 4 Less as they have really good references. And now I know they deserve each and everyone of them. I came in at 8am sharp. They did a check one my brakes. The dealer said I have 5 mm on my front pads, turns out it is 7 mm so more than good enough. The rear brake pads only had, 2 mm. So that had to be done. Super friendly guys. Ordered the ceramic pads (longer lasting and 60k miles warranty) and the rotors resurfaced. All together a little more than an hour including ordering and receiving the brake pads. I am so happy I found them. Friendly, honest and no BS. Thank you. Will be using you for sure on any future brake job! read more

The service manager ( Jesse ) was honest about the brake replacement estimate for my 2010 Ford Ranger. I very much appreciate his advice concerning the estimate and repair work that was necessary for the vehicle. In the end, I truly feel that Jesse was trying to do what was in my best interest, and not just trying to sell me a repair service. read more

Robbie was exceptionally knowledgeable. professional & knew exactly what was wrong within minutes of describing the issue... after having taken my car to 4 other 'expert' mechanics in Palm Coast, who couldn't find what was wrong and yet charged over over $3000 to replace brakes & struts, when it was both rear wheel bearings in need of replacement. Easy to find, and walking distance to Dunkin' or 5-Star Pizza, while waiting for your car. I highlly tecommend Brakes-4-Less!!! read more

Brakes 4 Less - Auto Repair Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

See all

My brakes have been squeaking & grinding intermittently for a few months now. I had a Dodge dealership do a brake inspection during my last oil change, and they said my brakes were fine, and they still had a lot of life left in them. So the squeaking & grinding continued. I then tried brake cleaner, and it helped for a few days, but the squeaking and grinding eventually returned. After a little Googling, I found Brakes 4 Less, and they had terrific reviews, with a handful of questionable ones. So I was a little hesitant, but proceeded anyways since they were open on Saturdays, and I was desperate to get rid of the squeaking & grinding. I am so glad I did. Rob and his crew were simply awesome people to work with. I came in during my appointment, and they kept me informed throughout the whole process. After the inspection, Rob showed me my brake pads, and confirmed what the Dodge dealership said about the life of the pads, but pointed out the cause of the noise, which was rust on the pads. He said I can easily and safely continue driving, if the noise doesn't bother me, which they also heard during their test drive. But if I wanted to get rid of the noise, then replacing the pads was the best option, which I was more than willing to do. So far, no more squeaking and grinding noises, and fingers crossed, it does not come back any time soon. He did advise that rust may rear its ugly head down the road, but he was confident it would be some time before we have to cross that bridge again. Thanks Rob & Crew. read more

Rob is excellent! Great service at a reasonable price. We bring all our vehicles there.

We are on vacation so I took a chance. The guys were great. Very helpful. Listened to the issue and explained the problem. Got in and out in under 2 hours with new breaks, rotors and calipers. Now feel more comfortable for the trip home. read more

alex and James they are the best alex he helped me a lot thank you so much Great place to go read more

Rob and his team always do a great job for all of our three cars. they are fast, friendly and respectful.

I came to see them based on a suggestion from another auto body shop up the road. Once I got my car there they did the inspection for free and suggested only what I needed. I was about to drive across the country so I needed to make sure my car was in order. I can't remember his name but he was very honest and made great conversation and connection not only about cars but about life. It's scary doing anything with your car and he made the process not so scary. Sending this review from Arizona because I got here safely and I was thankful for his help. read more

Visit: Came in because I felt pulsation in the brakes for the last two weeks. I hadn't done anything to my brakes in several years so the timing seemed about right. I knew I'd need new brakes on all four wheels, and googled the cause for pulsating brakes.. none of the options were great. Estimate: Rob was great, he first inspected my car, second explained the problem and third gave me a few options to consider . The first option was his recommendation (highest price by $40). Second was the recommended minimum (mid price). Last was the price for a four wheel brake job which is what I came in for, but would only be a band aid to the actual problem (cheapest price by $200). Resolution: I ended up going with the recommended service because everything he said made sense. I appreciate the time he took to explain the issues and was happy to be out of there two hours later with a safer vehicle. Problem fixed! Tip: Call and make an appointment with the store itself! Not the national line. While sitting in the waiting room I saw a couple of customers come in to get service, thinking they had appointments but did not have a computer reservation. This is a must if you want to get your car back in the same day!!! read more

I am a first timer turned return/regular customer. Rob, the mgr, was thorough in explaining the process. Very pleased with the work done on my car. Took a little longer as they were short staffed which was fine as we left and did some shopping. Definitely recommend Brakes 4 Less in St Augustine read more

Fantastic service ! Honest , Upfront , low prices and Funny I got a quick appointment had to move the time and still had a quick appointment ! read more

I had a horrible experience with this company. St Augustine shop. I brought my Jeep there because it was making a high pitch squeal when I pushed on the brakes. The manager called after inspecting my Jeep and said that I needed a brake booster $637.00 and that would fix the problem. I originally brought it there for brakes but he said that's not what I needed. I still had a good 10,000 or more before I would need new brakes he said. He called said that my Jeep was ready to pick up. I go get it pay the bill and leave. I stop at a red light and it made the same high pitch squeal. I called manager and said it's doing the same thing it was when I brought it in. I brought it back to them he got in to drive it and I could hear it when he pushed on the brakes. He come back in the office act like he didn't hear anything. I looked at him are you serious right now?? He said well you can get brakes if you like? I was in complete shock! I said you made it very clear this morning when you called that I did not need brakes. He said I wouldn't put brakes on it anyway till you got that booster done. Do you want to make an appointment or not I'm about to close. So be very careful when dealing with these people. They do this by default on purpose it's away to get more money after the fact and they cover there basis while doing it. It's like they follow a script. I had no problem getting brakes that's what I went there for in the first place. I was told I didn't them that I just needed the booster. The robbed me for over $600 The corporate office is a complete joke they are no help at all. I bet they didn't even install the booster. Having certified mechanic confirm. They just robbed the wrong person. read more

These guys are as honest as it gets. They will literally take you to see the brakes on the car while they explain the issue so you understand what it needs. Great prices too! I went to another place for an estimate and this company gave a much better price. Rob will tell you if you don't need something that you were told you do by someone else! You can't get a more honest mechanic. If you need a brake job, this is your place! read more

Service was Excellent very nice people educated me about my brakes which helped me make the best decision would return when needed

I went to them after a friend had a great experience there. The service was wonderful, very quick, and the place is very clean. There is a plastic barrier at the cashiers, and they have comfortable chairs seated outside if you want to wait outside. They spray everything down and people wear masks. I think their prices are the best in the area, too. They don't try to sell you stuff you don't need and are very honest. I will go here again! read more

Appointment was right on time, friendly staff, in and out in a timely manner, would recommend to others.

They give you clear options, no pressure, and do the work fast. No upwelling or replacing parts you don't need. Even when I had a follow up issues they got it right for free... price was 1-4 the next best estimate for other places. My new brakes place! read more

Extremely rude and took forever!! Oh and, their $99.00 special is never ever actually $99 even BEFORE tax is included!

Great experience. Had some work done on the wife's Lexus RX. The customer service was good. Both Rob and Matt were friendly and knowledgeable. The price was a home run! read more

I had quite an experience here at Brakes 4 Less, and I wasn't sure whether to give 1 star or 5 stars, but now that I've had time to reflect, I gotta give these guys props. My wife's car needed new brake pads, so I decided to make an appointment with Brakes 4 Less (they take appointments online). So when I showed up on time for my appointment, they had no clue I was coming in, no idea what for, and they were absolutely slammed with customers. So after waiting 5 hours, they took my car in, told me the problem, and then let me know they didn't have the parts available, and that I would have to come back 2 days later to get it fixed. However, since I waited so long, they offered me a hell of a deal to get the job done, so I left in a pretty good mood. I came back for the next appointment, and they took the car right in, got everything fixed fairly quickly, and then let me know what they had done- they had changed the brake pads on the wrong wheels. Since it was a few minutes before closing time, they didn't have the parts to change on the wheels that were actually bad, and that I was going to have to come back AGAIN to have the pads that were worn replaced. So I left pretty angry, knowing I had spent about 8 hours waiting at the shop, and they still hadn't done the job right. So I came back a few days later on time, and to their credit- they took the car straight in, replaced the pads that needed to be replaced, and along with an apology, did the job for free. So although I did have to visit the shop 3 times, and spent about 10 hours total in their waiting room, I paid a ridiculously low price to have all 4 brake pads replaced on the car. The guys working here are super friendly and legitimately go out of their way to save people money. While I was waiting in the waiting room, I saw many a customer come in with problems on their brakes, and watched the manager make phone calls to parts stores, junkyards, and check websites to get the very best price on the parts needed to save them money. These guys know their stuff, and they did quality work. The quality of their work is top-notch. I just wish they had a facility like up in Jacksonville- this shop only has 2 bays, 3 lifts, and it's apparent they're understaffed and overworked. This place is ALWAYS busy. Yet, even with all that, they're super friendly and go out of their way to help the customer get their brakes fixed and save money doing it. So overall, I have to say I had a GREAT experience here, despite all the aggravation- if you need brake work done on your vehicle, stop in to Brakes 4 Less. Just be patient, it may take a few visits, but it will get done, but it will get done right and at a great price. read more

I came with an expectation of a bad rotor after Visiting Ray's. Spoke to Rob here and not only was the rotor good, they did the job at a fraction of what I was quoted at Ray's. Friendly and helpful, highly recommend. read more

Rob and his team did me a great service, fixing critical parts in less than 24 hours. My rotor was super heated and badly damaged, due to a sticking caliper. They showed me what was wrong while the car was on the lift, changed out and bled the lines, installed a new rotor and made the vehicle safe to drive again. Not only that, they gave a ride to and from the service center! Best customer service EVER! Highly recommended! read more

Rob, the manager, is hands down one of the best guys in northeast Florida. All the guys are awesome at what they do. They went above and beyond to get my antique Jeep back to me the same day. The Jeep had different ideas but Rob constantly did everything he could to save me money. read more

Tried coming here one time. They took over an hour just to tell me it's would cost a grand for break work. Not sure what they were trying to sell me but it wasn't what I needed. read more

Needed brakes and sensors for my Mercedes E500 and shopped around before taking it here. Other Mercedes shops in town quoted me a full service price that was extremely high. Brakes 4 Less beat their price by over $200. Dropped the car off and they had it done by the afternoon. Upfront and honest about what I needed which is rare these days . I will definitely recommend them to friends and family. Solid work gentleman. read more

This place is great and Rob, the manager, really does a great job explaining everything to the customer.

This is actually same store as one I've previously commented on. I came back again for more work. Still happy. Same guys still work there.

Ive been coming here for years. great work, great price, honest guys. literally go out of their way to show you everything and get you a killer price. That being said they are busy all the time and it is a smaller shop. Definately set an appointment. save yourself some time. read more
