The mechanic listened, asked good follow-up questions, made sure he understood the problem before drawing any conclusions, and then diagnosed it cleanly. The part arrived within the window he quoted (2-3 hours), was installed without fuss, and the final bill was reasonable. What stood out as much as the technical work: he flagged a slow coolant leak and a minor oil leak -- this is an older car, so neither was a shock -- but there was no pressure to pile on services. He showed me rough estimates so I'd have them when I'm ready and left the decisions to me. That kind of straightforward, no-upsell approach is rarer than it should be. The waiting area is a genuine plus: free wifi, a table big enough to work at, and a small fridge with complimentary drinks, large TV. My one suggestion would be to add a coffee in the AM. Also, the door to the reception currently reads "B". Might want to avoid any confusion with better signage. That said, I am a big fan of this establishment and will be using them for repairs in the future (apparently sooner than I want :) Bonus: he pointed me to a wonderful Indian place across the street, Biryani, which I'd highly recommend if you have time to kill while your car is being worked on.

From the moment they answer the phone with "How can I serve you?", you can tell customer service is at the heart of what they do. Steve is usually the person I work with, and he has always been fantastic to deal with. The team is incredibly transparent throughout the entire process and takes the time to show videos and pictures of anything they recommend for your vehicle. What I appreciate most is that they never use pressure or scare tactics to push unnecessary repairs. They're honest, straightforward, and truly treat you like family instead of just another customer walking through the door. It's hard to find an auto shop you can fully trust these days, but Christian Brothers has absolutely earned ours.

Modern Automotive in Cary, NC is the best repair facility of the many that we have used. First,…read morethey are honest and trustworthy. That relieves an incredible amount of anxiety on our part. They don't make a repair which is unnecessary. They don't try to scare you into agreeing to have expensive, unneeded repairs figuring that the anxiety of not having them done would encourage you to OK them. They don't continually try to up sell you on unneeded services as many dealership service departments do. They even verified that new tires that our tire dealer said that we needed were not needed now because the current tires were fine wrt tread wear and other features. More anxiety relief. They also do top-quality repairs. We have taken our two vehicles there for the past three years, one of which is almost 30 years old. Some repairs appeared to us that they may be undoable but they have solved every problem. They only use manufacturer replacement parts which may cost a little more or delay a repair but are likely to last much longer than using cheap generic parts but then charging the manufacture prices. Their labor charges are entirely reasonable. The manager, Will, is incredibly knowledgeable and capable of running a three-ring circus if needed. Because of their outstanding service, it is typical to have to wait a couple of weeks for an appointment.

Never a problem and always great service from the entire crew here, Jay has been a straight-shooter from the beginning. I love the warranty on repair, and the options provided on expensive repairs (multiple things, putting them in priority). I've recommended Renaissance to my friends who have been pleased as well.

If I could give a zero star to this business I would. I see other Yelp reviews alleging Owner, Jay…read moreis unscrupulous, I agree. Owner Jay is a thief! They do bad work, overcharge and violate the NC Consumer Mechanic Act - They didn't fix my son's BMW problem and tried to charge for parts/labor we never authorized, and the BMW dealership who wound up doing the repair says we didn't need either. After picking up car, we broke down less than a block away and when we returned to the shop, we saw them lock the door and act like they were closed. I left numerous messages and didn't hear from them, until they discovered I cancelled the payment. Then they slandered me with lies on their Facebook business page (what kind of business handles a customer dispute like this), that my lawyer had to send him a threatening letter. Bad business all around. Be Ware!

I had a flat tire and took my vehicle to NTB / Mavis. As soon as they saw I had a Tesla they said…read morethey couldn't patch the tires due because it has sound deadening foam in it.

I had an issue with one of my fleet vehicles having a squeak somewhere on the front axel. He was able to not only solve it, but explain to me what he was checking and looking for.

On top of that-- he responded and set everything up in less than an hour-- in two hours the vehicle was road worthy and ready for the next rental later in the week. Very reasonably priced, very high quality work, extremely knowledgeable and personable. John is the gold standard for automotive maintenance.

I was so upset with this place that I decided to write my first ever Yelp review. I took my car to…read morethis place for headlight issue and they quoted me $2500 for headlight assembly and I declined and just payed the $164 diagnostic fee. 3 hrs after I picked up the car, my check engine light and traction control sign came on so I took it back next morning. The service adviser said, had a engine misfire, why did they forget to put that on the inspection list? The mechanic said they didn't even put that on the courtesy inspection because all of the focus was on the headlight. So who's telling the truth here? I just said the timing is fishy and left because they had a look on their face not knowing why I would be upset. To sum it up, I didn't have check engine light. 3 hrs later after I picked up my car from this place, check engine light came on. It could be coincidence but extremely suspicious. Only thing they put on the urgent list was tire tread, nothing about engine misfire. I chose this place due to good reviews but it was a mistake as I'm just going to take my car to dealership.

And a new tire will be $500 or more. It's company policy. Ok, no problem I think. I'll take it elsewhere. I ask them to put air in it, and I'll think about it. They said well you can't take it home, we took the screw out, so your tire is flat. What? If you knew they were foam filled by what's on the side wall of the tire, and you knew you don't fix them, why did you take the screw out? Oh! To force me to buy a new tire from you! Well I'm not gonna fall for that. I decided to wait for 1.5 hours for a tow truck to tow it to my trusted tire place, who fixed it...for free. Won't be going there again any time soon.
