I don't usually leave reviews, but this experience felt misleading and unprofessional from a…read morepricing standpoint. I was originally quoted one price for the repair, but later I was told the cost went up because I "needed hoses added," with no clear explanation or proof provided for why those parts were necessary. There was no documentation, no visual inspection shown, and no real breakdown to justify the added work--just a verbal claim that it was required. On top of that, the final charge ended up being more than 3x what the same OEM part is listed for at Ford, which raises serious concerns about how the pricing was marked up and presented. The issues didn't stop there. This happened on a Friday. I was told my car would be ready before 4:00 PM, but around 4:30 PM I only received a last-minute text update. I arrived at approximately 5:09 PM, and the shop was already closed. There was no one available, no way to speak to anyone, and no reliable way to get updates or access my vehicle. Because of the timing and the fact that it was already Friday evening, my car would have been stuck there all weekend until Monday, which directly affected my work schedule. I had to go out of my way to find and contact the owner myself just to avoid being left without my vehicle for multiple days. While I did get my car back, the overall experience felt inconsistent, poorly communicated, and not handled in a transparent or professional way

There is nothing Christian about the response I received from the franchise owner, Brad Copland…read more Christian Brothers Automotive Repair in Bradenton performed a faulty repair that lead to total engine failure costing close to $10,000 to repair. He had the nerve to send me a letter denying responsibility, yet offering $1,000 to "settle" the incident. Read their warranty carefully. This could happen to you. From their warranty page - "Warranty coverage will not exceed the dollar amount of the original repair." So, they cause damage costing thousands and you might be covered for a fraction of the repair cost. Or get a laughable offer to go away. Gone are the days where people have principles - do the right thing, own their mistakes, try to improve, and earn trust. https://www.cbac.com/about-us/nice-difference-warranty/limitations-and-exclusions/#~a2421f31-6eb4-41a6-9cba-a127b6ee0bf3

The owner even offered to throw in some parts at cost to help me out. Shout out to Mike and Sam the mechanic who got on the phone with me and answered all my questions (who does that!) and Mike who personally made sure I felt well taken care of and paid attention to all of my concerns. If you have a European car, I cannot recommend this place enough!

I brought my 2022 Subaru Forester in for repairs, and they did a fantastic job at a fair price. There were no surprise fees, no hidden charges, and absolutely no pressure to upsell services I didn't need, which is rare and very much appreciated. After experiences with Subaru Connelly and Cox, my husband and I have decided we'll be bringing all of our vehicles to Honest1 going forward for both servicing and repairs.
