Very thorough and communicates issue very well. Team is knowledgeable and found the actual problem, and they saved me tons of money versus the dealership and other locations. The video updates they provide customers are very helpful and effective. I highly recommend. Customer service is top notch. I’d give them 6 stars right now if I could.

I was from out of town and my son-in-law noticed a transmission leak in which It immediately had it checked out at Bret's Autoworkers, in Gardner KS. The service was Fantastic from the time I stepped into the office until the job was completed! I loved the video of the walk around inspection that was sent showing not only the leaky transmission but the condition of the tires. The way in which the mechanic explained what I was seeing was very easy to follow and understand! With already a busy schedule my vehicle was taken care of in a very timely manner and I'm Greatful for such wonderful service 🙏🙌💖 kudos to the entire team.... Thank You Very Much ❣️

I really liked the video inspection and the way the tech covered all his findings. The staff seemed very professional although I never had a face to face due to my schedule. The only issue I have is the pricing. I understand you get what you pay for but the labor rate is significantly greater than nearby establishments. I was charged 300$ for a diagnostic which only established a repair they needed to do to FINISH diagnosing my problem. Which by the way was for 1500 dollars including the diagnostic. The part they had priced out for 800 dollars was available from autozone for 250. I understand markup and that they need to make money. But it seems a bit excessive
