Our Customers Say:
“They performed excellent and timely service on my car. They were very kind and knowledgeable both on the phone and in person. I appreciated receiving a phone call from them before they made any changes. And they saved me money by repairing a part rather than suggesting I order new ones. As a first time customer, I was very pleased!”
“I lucked out finding these guys from reading Google reviews and so happy I did! Very professional, honest, communicative and services are fairly priced. I will definitely use them for all car repairs and service.”
“My brakes locked up on my trailer. So I took off the brake assembly, took it to Browns, and they fixed it right away! Was able to get my trailer back working again. Thanks Browns!”
“They are the best. They really care for their customers and they do their job right. Take my word for it as I’m a man who loves working on his car and I understand car mechanics well. I can for sure tell if the technician is doing his job right or not and at Brown’s shop they do their job 100%.”
“I called today to get a pricing on a 4 wheel alignment. The gentleman (Brian)on the was very honest and kind. They will be one of my places to keep in mind if needing car work.
Update: I came to get my car (Butter ) axle fixed. And they did a wonderful job. And a reasonable price. While they rest of these sorry mechanical shops will try to charge 2legs and a arm. The Big Plus for me was the honesty.!!!!”
“I usually take my car to these guys for a regular oil change and service. They always give me an honest, upright and the best quote on things that need to be done/fixed in my car. Most recently, I had to get my NC inspection for registration renewal. They did mention that they were fully booked for the day, but when Brian realized that it was my last day to get my NC state inspection, he took my car and got it done though they were fully booked for the day. These guys are the best and the most helpful auto repair shop in town!”
