I called, with fingers crossed, that they would be able to get me in today. I put the incorrect fluid where it wasn't suppose to go. They had me come by at 1:00 and I was done by 2:00. Everyone was great and had the same urgency in the matter as I had.

Thank you for your review! We're glad we could help you quickly and get you back on the road. Accidents happen, and we're always here when you need us! Our team understands the urgency in such situations, and we appreciate your trust in us to get the job done. If you ever need anything else, don't hesitate to reach out. Drive safe! 🚗🔧

Brett's is the only place I will take my car for repairs. They send a video to me showing what is wrong and they go into detail about how to fix my car. They call me before doing the repairs to tell me what is going on and what it will take to make the repairs. They are fast and friendly. They also make sure I know what might be coming up for future maintenance. I wish they would detail my car as well but we can't have everything Thanks for the great work!
