We were very fortunate to avoid a collision, and we also were fortunate that Superior Brake was there to help. The incident occurred late in the day, so they stored the truck inside over night and fixed it the next day -- for a price that I consider fair. The whole time they showed professional care and made extra efforts to get us back on the road safely, as quickly as possible. Five stars and a huge THANK YOU to Superior Brake & Auto Repair for helping an out-of-town family in their hour of need.

Although this time I brought it to a reputable shop to have the work done as: 1. Bernings doesn't honor their work, no warranty. 2. I didn't want to go through the same issue I had with the rear axle, paying for repairs and then repeated failures. 3. I' wanted the work done right. The universal joint that was replaced at Bernings turned out to be the incorrect part which then of course failed. In addition, the tie rod end I had replaced at Bernings also failed. As I stated in my previous review, the technicians (I'm using this term very loosely with these clowns) have no clue what they're doing. And the owner, your typical con man. So be warned, stay away from Bernings.

When there is staff there, they are less than apologetic or willing to remedy the situation. On a recent occasion, there was construction debris in one of the bays and a large nail went through my shoe and into my foot. I called to make them aware and to let them know the spot free rinse wasn't working and received NOTHING from a customer service perspective. Not an apology, an offer to remove the charge, a discounted or free wash, an "I'm sorry that happened, are you ok?". NOTHING except a "you enter at your own risk" response and "construction vehicles go through there all the time". So, if you value your car tires, how your car looks, and don't want nails in your feet, I would recommend going elsewhere.

The good folks at Tires Plus in Buffalo Minnesota told me they do not care…read more Called Tires Plus and requested repair of my 2003 Ford Ranger emergency brakes. They said they could fix the problem, so I had my assistant follow me to Tires Plus so I could leave the truck there. I requested they fix it same day as I brought it in because I've had gasoline stolen from my car leaving it overnight at Tires Plus Buffalo location. The emergency brakes were completely non-functional, with the cable so loose the pedal didn't stop until the physical limit. These brake components (minus drums and shoes) were 20 plus years old, rusty and in a couple places worn through the outer covering into the cable itself. Got a call from Tires Plus, Buffalo Minnesota October 10th, 2025 at 11:15AM. I was told "it's going to be expensive" to fix my emergency brakes!  (it was around $900.00) I said - Go ahead and fix it. Got a call around 4:30PM I was told "We thought replacing the rear components would fix the emergency brakes, but, it didn't. It will cost another $600.00 to fix the emergency brakes." Since it was closing time anyway, and I wasn't going to leave my truck there, I said to button it up and I will finish the job myself (I've rebuilt engines and transmissions and repaired everything on cars from the 70's to today with many brake jobs - I'm not an expert mechanic, but experienced. When I got home and took off one of the rear wheels and went to remove the brake drum, it was so tight that I bent my gear puller 5/8" steel bolt trying to get it loose. The hub center where the drum lands wasn't cleaned - it was rusty and rough and tight. I went to the other side, where I found the brake drum had a large chunk of steel out of it. It could have been dropped, breaking it, or it could have been broken when they tried to remove it after realizing that their "spray and pray" approach to auto repairs didn't fix the Emergency brake. I couldn't remove the broken drum with my puller either.  At this point I called the manager and requested they get those drums back off so I could finish the repair job, since it appeared that only with massive force would these come loose, and they'd probably be damaged by all that pounding. I wasn't going to do it. The manager agreed to replace the broken drum and do the work so I could remove the drums myself with reasonable effort.  We agreed I would bring the truck in at 8AM on a Wednesday morning. On Wednesday morning I scheduled my assistant to once again bring me Tires Plus Buffalo Minnesota so I could leave the truck to get repaired. Upon arrival I spoke to (morning manager). I asked how he felt about what happened with the misdiagnosis, broken drum sent home and my own time involved.  I was searching for any kind of "ahh sorry....", but was met with complete indifference to my problem. I asked three times - "do you care that this got messed up?" and each time the response was clearly given in body language. He didn't care one bit. He responded "What do you want me to say?" I said maybe Russ Peterson the owner will care - morning manager still couldn't muster up any kind of apology or any accountability for a misdiagnosis that cost me time and money - " I didn't do the work." was his response! When I asked the original manager the same question, it was clear to me he didn't care either! We'll replace the broken drum was the best he could do. The manager seems like a nice guy whom I've worked with for 20 plus years, which is why I apologized when I walked out the door an unhappy, unsatisfied customer who not only didn't get his Emergency brake fixed, but now will need to find a new mechanic that I can recommend to my family and friends. And I hope plenty of people avoid the painful mistake of choosing Tires Plus Buffalo Minnesota to work on their car. They've shown me and outright told me they don't care.

I have a 17 yr old vehicle thats rear left brake caliper was sticking. Upon further inspection, the…read morerear left brake pad had worn down to the metal because of the sticking caliper. So I brought it here to get repaired. The good: They do an inspection with photos and put it online for you to see. The service writer was patient and helpful in figuring out what work to get done and was upfront about costs. They offer free loaner cars, which I did not use. The are ASE certified mechanics. The bad: The original inspection addressed everything else they wanted to replace and did not address what caused the sticking caliper - the reason I was there. They did go back and look at it though once I asked, and said the pins probably rusted. They wanted to replace a strut, front brakes and rear brakes, secure a heat shield better, degrease the engine to pinpoint a leak, and do an oil change. It's good to know about that stuff but the rear left brake was the pressing issue. Was originally quoted $1,175 to replace just the rear brakes: new calipers, new rotors, new pads on both the rear left and rear right (but not the front.) The car is only worth $1500, it's a Scion/Toyota not a Mercedes or BMW and it's old. I had been quoted $850 to do all that somewhere else with 3 yr warranty, new parts etc. So I asked what's the minimum they could do to get all 4 brakes working and they said they could replace just the rear left caliper and rear left brake pads for $450. The brake pads come in sets for both rear wheels but the mechanic wouldn't put the rear pads on the right side because he wouldn't work with the rear right caliper - it's too old and rusty, might break (though I would've taken that risk.) He would want to replace it instead. Well if I replaced every old rusty part of my car that still works I'd have a new car, and they charge $300+ to put a new caliper in. And they don't machine resurface rotors even if they're thick enough to. They said they want to warranty the rotors for 3 years instead. Well my car might not last another 3 years. So I chose the $450 option. When I picked it up they gave me the breakdown of the work: $192 for a remanufactured caliper sold at NAPA a few blocks away from the shop for less than $100. $50 for brake pads sold at NAPA for $25. $178 for the labor to install a new caliper and pads on just the rear left wheel. The brakes vibrate because they don't resurface rotors. They gave me the extra set of brake pads that came in the box they wouldn't put on the right side without replacing the caliper. I see a lot of good reviews here but nobody is saying what they paid. And they don't want to work with old rusty parts, just replace them all. Maybe that's typical, but 4 or 5 stars would be going above typical. And the shop is only open until 5pm. It took a week to get me in. All that said, this isn't a negative review. I'm just saying this may be a small, honest family owned shop in Corcoran with just a few mechanics and service people, but it isn't a thrifty one. Far from it. But I do now know all the work my car needs done in the near future and how to tackle it with a more thrifty shop and a probably a parts dealer/service locator like Tirerack.
