Factory gated Modena

I finally escaped dreadful California and moved here last year and started my search for a new shop that could service my Acura TL SH-AWD. This model is an extremely well performing car except for the dismal brakes, so I've been running some Rotora brakes for the past few years. They are aluminum billet, six piston fixed calipers with huge cross drilled rotors on floating aluminum hats. Basically Brembo CART knockoffs. These perform even better than the Brembo "throwaway" (i.e. un rebuildable) calipers on my Ferrari. Obviously, no shop is going to stock these parts, so I always have an extra set of pads and rotors on hand. I figured, "what better shop to visit to have the rotors and pads swapped out than Brakes Plus?" I walk in and ask the gentleman if they would be willing to install my parts. As an aside, I would never ask a shop to install my parts when they were also able to acquire them, that would just be unethical. As soon as the gentleman starts to answer, another older man steps up and starts treating me like I'm a 2 year old. The first man barely finished his sentence when the older man interrupts, "WELL HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU NEED NEW BRAKES???", to which I calmly replied, "my rotors are past the point of no return..." - "WELL HOW DO YOU KNOW THEY'RE PAST THE POINT OF NO RETURN???". At that point, I just said, "You know, no worries, I"ll take care of it", shook my head and walked out. I tried HonTech in (I think) Tempe(?) I'm still trying to find my way around. They wouldn't help me either. I tried another shop, "HonMan", in Tempe (by the college) and they were more than happy to accommodate my request. These guys are absolutely top notch. Prompt, honest, fair prices, Honda/Acura experts. I admonish anyone with a Honda or an Acura to pay HonMan a visit. More local businesses would do well to take 30 seconds to get to know their target audience before making assumptions.

I have a Frankenstein truck (1968/1972/1982 - Chevy) that I have been working on. I took the truck to two local mechanics (A#MC and T&re Pros). Neither seemed to be at all interested in working on the truck. One of the shops actually said, "Your truck was made in '68 and my mechanic was born in '86." I was told to take it to a classic car shop. I found a HOT ROD shop in San Tan. They said that they could help. I skeptically agreed to give them a shot. They had the truck for over 6 weeks. I had to call once a week to get an update. Their customer service was apathetic at best. I assume that since I wasn't interested in spending tens of thousands of dollars rebuilding a hot rod, that they really just weren't interested. They charged $120/hour for 10.5 Hours to replace a parking brake assembly. A really bad experience. I had hired a handyman to do some work at my home and he say that truck. I told him the story and he recommended Matthew and his team at Brakes Plus on Higley and Chandler Heights. I limped the truck over on faulty brakes. Matthew said that he would take a look. They called me the next afternoon with their diagnosis. He explained the issue, what should be done to fix, the cost and the timeline. They ordered parts and a couple of days later (two days faster than the committed to) called and said that the truck was done. The brakes now work great and I can drive my cool truck around again. Pricing was very fair. They were honest and straight forward. The service was excellent. They were very knowledgeable and just great guys to work with. I will definitely be bringing my truck and my other vehicles back to Matthew and his team. I would strongly recommend them as a trustworthy and knowledgeable shop. Thank you Matthew.

They were incredible helpful, speedy, communicative, friendly and honest. I did not ever feel a single time that I was being overcharged or taken advantage of (especially as a woman with minimal car knowledge). It was always a seamless and pleasant process and I wish they had locations everywhere. I honestly never would have gone anywhere else if we hadn't moved.

I really appreciate their text message system that allows me to review what they're recommending now and in the future. I also really enjoy that you can opt right then and there to approve or deny a service. It also has prices estimates. At the end of the service the price estimates were the same as the charges (not sure if it would ever vary or if they would call before if it was to be more) I appreciate the pictures they take too! Pricing seems to be fair and comparable. The service was excellent. Very approachable and patient as I had questions and concerns since I'm not familiar with car stuff. It's easy enough to find, squeezed between the sonic and gas station. You could probably wander around and sit other places if you needed to wait for your car. I definitely plan to come back for my future care services and recommend!

I cannot say enough great things about Crawford's Auto Repair!…read moreI brought my truck in thinking I had a suspension issue because of a squeaky noise that had been getting worse. They got me in quickly, were incredibly friendly from the moment I walked in, and took the time to thoroughly check everything out. It turned out to be something as simple as a loose spare tire, something that could have easily been misdiagnosed elsewhere. What really stood out to me is that they fixed the issue right then and there and didn't charge me anything. That level of honesty and integrity is rare these days. As a woman, it can sometimes feel intimidating trying to find an auto shop you can truly trust. At Crawford's, I felt completely comfortable, respected, and confident that I was being treated fairly, no upselling, no pressure, just genuine help. They've absolutely earned my trust, and I will be coming back for any future car needs. If you're looking for a shop that is honest, knowledgeable, and truly cares about their customers, this is the place to go. Highly, highly recommend!

He said I was the first person in 5 years that had asked for prices to be matched from another nearby mechanic shop. He even said that the prices that they quoted me, that I should go to the other shop instead, was a $60 difference by the way. Was also told by Ken that I wasn't a good customer because I had only done one oil service with them in a year and a half. Will never give Crawford's my business and they're just another auto shop that's dishonest and takes advantage of their customers. Hard to find integrity these days!!

Everyone there was super knowledgeable and friendly, and it was well worth the money.

When I dropped the block off, I was asked to leave it by the shop door. It sat in that exact spot for over two weeks before I finally received a quote, which I felt was unreasonably high for the work. I understand that shops have minimum charges, but waiting more than two weeks for a quote on a cam bearing replacement--only to receive a price that high--was frustrating. When I picked the block up, it had developed some surface rust because it hadn't been moved the entire time it was there. That said, the staff was friendly and professional throughout the process. Because of that, I'd be willing to give them another chance if I needed different work in the future. However, my first experience ended up being a frustrating waste of time.
