I made an appointment for a Saturday morning to have my brakes changed. My car was shaking when I would come to a stop. My husband advised I get new rotors also. I had dropped the vehicle off so when they called me to tell me what they found I was advised my rotors did not need to be replaced yet and that they could be resurfaced. I agreed brakes were changed paid almost $300. When I left I noticed my brakes were squeaking, they were not squeaking when I took the car there. When I called I was advised that it could take a little while for every thing to break in and get right.after 2 weeks they were still squeaking so I called back and was told to bring it in they could see what was going on. So I dropped the car off again. When they called me they told me it was a bad brake pad they had placed and that they had put a new one on and the car was ready. When I picked up the vehicle as I was about to turn out my hood wasnt shut completely. My husband shut the hoof- small oversight but could have been a big issue. I went home that day and parked the vehicle it drove home fine. My kids were on quarantine so the car stayed parked for 5 days. On the 6th day I took my kids to school and it made a weird sound when I stopped I was on an incline and thought maybe something is adjusting. I was going down the road and when I came to a stop the car started grinding and sounded like I was scraping metal against concrete. I immediately went back to Brakes for Less and left the car- I was on the way to work. I received a call shortly later that the good news is they found the problem bad news is I need new rotors. I explained that it should not be at my expense since not a month prior I was told my rotors were fine and she advised me that the bad brake pad had eaten and warped the rotor. I replied again with that should not be my expense you have said it was the brake pad that caused the issue at hand. Long story short another $307 for new rotors. Never again.
They were great! Didnt try to oversell me anything, fixed exactly what needed fixing & the cost was extremely reasonable. I was in and out really quickly! They will definitely get my repeat business!
Service in 10/2016 replace pads and surface rotor. Excellent. Did not need anything until 3/17/21. Tim not only explained what I needed, he also told me what was not needed. Drove off and no squeak, and wow I really needed brakes for a while because they feel awesome now! Had appointment and car was done on time. Highly recommend this location!
The staff at Brakes 4 Less on Sam Rittenburg Blvd. we’re great. I was greeted immediately and assured they would have me in and out as quickly as possible. I was impressed by the service and attitude of entire team. They explained what the services needed in detail.The price was also very reasonable.I would highly recommend these guys!
Went to get my brakes fixed cause they sometimes made a noise. They removed all 4 tires, checked everything out & told me my brakes were fine. Could have went ahead and fixed them & charged me, but they didnt. They were honest & when my brakes need fixing, Ill definitely go there. Was only there 30 minutes.
Friendly, professional service. Happy with the price too.
Mr. Tim was awesome!! I walked in and received prompt quality service. He fixed my brakes and offered additional help if I had any other issues once I left the shop. I definitely will be back for services!!
The staff on Sam rittenburg were fantastic. They were upfront and honest, unlike the dealership I was at earlier that morning that tried to take my money. These guys were so friendly and real. They actually took the time to show me what to look out for in future with my filters and brake fluid. You don’t get this amazing, genuine service anywhere no at days. Thank you so much for all your help.
Had a good experience at this location. The guys here were very helpful to rectify the problem I was having.
I came in and was helped immediately, the issues with my breaks were explained to me the pricing was explained as well. Tim was very helpful and took his time to make sure I understood what needed to be done as well as potential safety risks if I wouldnt have come in. Very nice! 10/10 will be back.
I highly recommend this company! Tim and his team were thorough and had great customer service. Tim especially made sure I was taken great care of. I appreciate his help to the HIGHEST. I definitely will be using them in the future.
Took my sons truck to Tires Choice to have a brake inspection because there was a squealing sound when he stopped. A quote of $1800plus & they were serious about him needing all new front & back pads, rotors, calipers & lines. I took it to Brakes 4Less for another opinion & after the gentleman inspected the brakes he told us the back brakes were definitely bad.... pads, rotors & one caliper & the only thing he would recommend for the front was new pads, but that was up to us because there wasnt anything wrong with the front. $650 & an hour later all new pads, 2 new rotors, 1 caliper with warranty, a hand shake & peace of mind knowing my son can drive his truck & stop when needed. Thanks guys for being honest.
I was very grateful to have found this place. As a travel nurse away from home and everyone I know Tim, was very helpful and was able to get me in right away to have my brakes replaced. Bernard and Jeremy were both very kind and informative in showing me the issue with my brakes and explaining what needed to be done.I would highly recommend Brakes for less. They not only were polite, informative and efficient but it was also done for a reasonable price.
First time customer. Professional, good communication and did not try to up sell me. I will be a returning customer.
They really helped my mom out when we needed it. The manager really blessed her and I will never forget it. I will definitely be returning in the future!!!!!!
I went to the Breaks 4 Less on Sam Rittenberg. Mr. Tim Reeves is awesome he helped me out when I really needed it and they took my car soon as I got there. I checked in they took my car evaluated it and let me know what was wrong and how much it costed before working on. Which helped a lot to know what I really need and what could wait. They were fast and professional. Anytime I need breaks Ill be coming back when need my breaks done again
Made an appt in advance, confirmed 2x before bringing vehicle that they had the “179” brakes for my vehicle. During their “inspection” they found many many things that just so happened to “need to be replaced”. This is a newer vehicle, and doesn’t need any of the things named. I declined all the extra, And just requested the brakes and they said, oh we don’t have the 179 for your vehicle, but we have these for 269. When asked why they didn’t have them when I called and confirmed that they did, no answer and was told they would not argue with me about it. They took apart many things that didn’t need to be taken apart during their inspection. They got very mad that I declined to have any services done at this point. While I was in the office, my husband called corporate and the woman in the office got a call from them and she lied to her and told her that my husband and I had a “heated argument” in the store and my husband was not even present with me. They lie and scam. Every other person checking out in there had lots of other problems as well, and to no surprise didn’t have the 179 brakes for their vehicles either. Did not see one person step out with their keys without a 500-600$ bill. All the red flags were there, rude staff, lying staff, overcharging and taking advantage of vulnerable people during this time, and left me with the worry of getting my kids home safe from fear of malfunctioning parts that functioned fine when I arrived.STAY AWAY! Do not come here!!!
Thank you kindly for working with me so well! Tim, the manager was so wonderful !! He works so hard and he truly cares about the customer ! I highly recommend taking your car here, honest prices and honesty 110%, will forever come back here for any car issues!!
Tim and his crew took care of everything pretty quick. Great job guys! ⭐
Excellent and reliable service. The manager Tim is very helpful and knowledgeable about automotive repair and maintenance. Great staff all around I highly recommend this place.
Tim was amazing and knowledgeable, my husband is currently deployed and I’ve never done this before nor do I know anything about cars and he put everything into terms that I could understand. Will definitely be coming back here again
I have one of the most professional experiences of all time at this store. I was treated like a lady by the gentleman that work here. Kept me informed about everything going on asked me if I needed anything. My car was a lot worse than I thought but Tim was awesome got me fixed right up. 5 stars is not enough they should have 10!!!!! . Hats off to y’all!!!!
1st time came and had to get these pads done but had to wait until the ppl bring new gear inI don’t recommend to come back anymore it’s a waste… sighs
Tim was very friendly, helpful, and honest. I came in to get new front pads so he was helpful in showing me the issues and explaining. I’d trust this place over the dealership.
Did a great job price was very good.I would recommend and return for future service
The Manager Tim greeted me upon arrival as I was totally stressed out about a used car I had just bought and another garage said I needed @$1400 in repairs incl brakes, rotors, CV joints and tie rods. My car sounded like it was falling apart on the drive there and I expected ANYTHING but GOOD NEWS and thats what I got from Tim and his staff. He SHOWED me all my brakes rotors etc were in great shape and the noise I was hearing was a LOOSE WHEEL that was about to fall off from the other garage not fastening it tightly when they inspected it. All I needed was 1 tie rod then he spent the rest of the time repairing the damage done to my wheel studs from them being loose from the negligence of the other garage. He would not quit until my car was perfect. Grand Total $200 UNBELIEVABLE!, Men with his integrity are rare these days and would recommend anyone not just go to THIS Brakes4Less for good value but for EXCEPTIONAL PROFESSIONAL SERVICE!
Did a good job but wasnt able get to my car the same day. However, gave a discount for the problem.
Not sure about them. Had my brakes done, a couple of weeks later still heard squeaking. Took car back, they drove it and heard nothing. Well that was 11 months ago. The last couple of days, I heard the brakes grind when I was driving and it got worse and worse. Took car to different store Sam Rittenberg) and was again told it was fine...maybe just some brake dust. Coincidentally, the customer in front of me came in with the same complaint about the same location, Northwoods. Ive decided to take it to a different place altogether because I heard what I heard. Jury is still out.
New Brakes sounds like the old brakes.smh.I dont understand
Awesome job. They were friendly and they wore a mask. They told me e6they were going to do up front. Loved it...
Best service! Great price! Explained everything in detail and quick work time. Could not ask for a better experience!
What I thought would make me pursue a new. Brakes 4 less pulled me through. The great gentleman at this location received my vehicle almost close to closing time. And was able to have my vehicle ready and back on the road quick as possible. I will be returning for all my brake service. The warranty offering well worth it as well. Highly recommend brakes 4 Less
Brought my Toyota 4runner in yesterday after the steering wheel was violently shaking whenever I braked. John, the manager, was awesome! Within a few minutes he was able to tell me options for the needed repairs. They have the best prices by far, 1/3 cheaper than the dealership. They even found me a coupon that I used to take an additional 15% off. My brakes havent worked this good since I bought the car new 15 years ago. Thanks to the whole team at Brakes for less for making this a wonderful and affordable experience!~Dan V.
Came in for a brake job, and found out my car needed quite a bit more work than I thought. After a thorough inspection, Tim explained what was needed, and made some recommendations that saved me a lot of money. Quick service and good prices.
The service was excellent Mr. Tim and Mr Brai are was very professional and prompt very good quality work I most definitely would give them my service again. Thank you very much for doing a great job on my car....
Tim the new manager and his main technician were wonderful to interact with! He recommended only what I needed and not more for sales. Being a prior vet like the both of them, I felt like they really cared to give me good service. Midas and Speedee quoted me double the price!
They told me that both front calipers and rotors needed to be replaced along with brake hoses. The estimate they gave me was about $1100. I bought the parts online and did it myself (but skipped the brake hoses) for around $500 only to find that didnt fix the issue. Then I went and bought the brake hoses and replaced those (each one was $35) and that fixed the issue. To their credit maybe it all really did need to be replaced. But I do wish they would have put in some effort to start small and hopefully save me $1000. Also I went to three other places that said the same thing. But I still think it would have been wiser to replace a $35 brake hose first to see if thats the issue before ripping out the entire front end brake system and replacing it.
Just had a great experience at breaks for less on Sam Rittenberg . Tim help so much and even gave us a great deal would highly recommend this place for you car services needs 😊 10/10 would come here again !
Went there to get my front brake pads replaced. Was supposed to be $129+tax. An hour after his employee took my truck apart, of course there was over $1000 worth of work that needed to be done. I told the man to put my truck back together because my husband said he would fix it himself. All of a sudden the price dropped to $354+tax.
Good staff and very nice environment. Definitely recommend them
Great place! Friendly staff that does good work
Attempted Geralds twice. You cant make an appt. Its first come, first served. The second time I went I was there at 6:40 (almost an hour before opening). The line was around the building at 7:30, like it was an effing nightclub. They told me, without looking at the car, that it would be a 3-5 hr drop-off with their backlog. And thats being the first one in the door. So first come, first served is more of a weekly thing, not a daily thing. Brakes 4 Less opened at 8 and was 1.2 miles away. They looked at my car, reviewed the condition before starting the work, telling me I only needed pads on the front and fluid change. $269 and I was out in an hour and a half.
I made an appointment to get my brakes done, the sign says $179. When I took it for my appointment, they told me it would cost $500! How tf?
Tim and his team are awesome and I would definitely recommend this location to anyone!!!!
In a bind and they saved my brakes on time. Quick service very friendly very helpful so as I came they could tell me from just looking at it. There work top of the line and the prices didn’t break the bank. Highly recommend you want the best yes brakes 4 less
Tim the manager got me in quickly, and car brakes redone quickly as well. Fast friendly service . Knowledgeable and courteous.
Tim was extremely helpful and did his best to get me out in a timely manner. Great job!Thanks very much.R Rivers.
Responsive and effective. They corrected an issue from another brake shop.
I brought my car in bc the brake wear indicator light was on. Turns out the pads were fine, it was just a faulty sensor wire. They were honest about it and told me I didnt need new brakes. Due to their honesty and professionalism, Ill definitely be back.
Tim and brenard are great! They care about vets and make sure the customer is taken care of!
Tim was amazing and very honest.I took my Tahoe to the Chevrolet place and they told me I needed brake calibers, I was recommended to Brakes 4 Less. Tim checked then told me I only needed brakes & break pads HONEST
The manager Jon is fantastic! Had an issue with work done at another location. Made things right! Excellant customer service! My new go to place for brakes and other car related work too! Highly recommend!!! 15% off on Wed💝
Had pads changed on my SUV. They beat dealers price by a landslide, gave awesome service and actually found me another discount on the brake pad sensors. Top-notch service great team at this location. Ill be back.
My experience at Brakes 4 Less was exceptional. Tim, the manager, explained new resolutions they are implementing for better customers experience. He was very professional.
Tim Reeves did a great job taking care of my Audi Q3. Excellent work and service. Highly Recommend.
Friendly, fast, and customer service is on point! Best deal in Charleston...I purchased what my vehicle actually required without being railroaded into things I didnt actually need. Never going anywhere else!
I was pleased with my visit. John helped me and I feel like he was honestAfter inspecting my brakes he gave me a report and 4 options for service. Being a widow I have to depend on honesty and good service. Thank you John.
Very courageous staff. I was greeted upon entering the door. The check in process was relatively fast. Although the waiting area is small, I was offered a stool by the front desk clerk. A little bit of a wait but happy with the work and price.
They wanted to charge me for something I didnt need. The 159.00 just to get you there. Had someone else check my brakes. Only needed pads for the back wheels. Please dont go there unless you have money to give away. Not an honest business. I will be reporting them to the better business bureau.
Very detailed & thorough with a female who doesnt know much about vehicles. I didnt feel as if I was being taken advantage of by a repair shop. Hector, the amazing tech, took the time to not only tell me what was wrong with my brakes, he showed the parts that needed repair. I highly recommend Brakes 4 Less. It is best to make an appointment, since they are very busy. 5 star service.Thank you Brakes-4-Less for your outstanding service!
Fast, honest service. They do a full inspection to make you aware of any issues you have and work with your budget to get you safely on the road. You can tell they care about serving you.
I had a great experience here! Tim was super helpful and their work was quick and high quality!
Typically men will take advantage of women when they try to take care of car business for themselves. I do not go anywhere else if Im having issues with my vehicle (unless its something they just cant do). I recently got my brakes replaced, and today rotors. Rob replaced my rotors so fast I was shocked. He said he was going to take care of me when I dropped my vehicle off at 8am, and he did just that! Sam Rittenberg location only
Very nice customer service and prices were great
No better place to go to! Lamar Nelson, I couldnt describe a better word than commendable at his work, profession, and heart. He took the time to listen to my needs in a way most people wouldnt. The crew is very good and professional as well. My guess is the great management under this company. Its one thing to do your job, but doing it with empathy and caring about the customers experience is like I said COMMENDABLE. Go Lamar and your well run crew. Ill always remember my good experience and wont be taking my cars anywhere else
I recently purchased a older Grand Cherokee. Ran great but the front brakes were shot. Little did I know that it was MUCH more than that. A bearing broke and required a replacement. Not only did the guys fix the issue for me, they kept me updated on every step and made SURE I was taken care of.The Manager, Rob, was extremely knowledgeable and TRULY went above and beyond for me.The Tech, Matt, was prompt, honest, and also, made sure I knew what was going on every step of the way! (Even though I know he wanted to blow this truck up)If you need brakes or service... dont even waste your time going anywhere else!
I had a wonderful experience at this location. Tim was extremely helpful and did everything he could do to help me get what I desperately needed done to my brakes. They were extremely helpful and did quality work! Will definitely return and definitely recommend. Tim had a wonderful attitude as did the mechanic whose name I did not catch. Thank you!
Great staff. Very professional and very welcoming. I will recommend them always.
They could have recommended repairs but suggested that the sound I was hearing was being caused by my wearing tires which they do not sell.
Had a great customer services with Tim. Tim explains everything well and he gave me a good deal for my brakes. I really appreciate. Thanks Tim for the good deal
They beat all other prices around. They were very thorough in explaining what needed to be done and actually showed you. Very friendly service.
I got my brakes done somewhere else, but there was a clunking noise afterwards, so I brought them here to have them checked out. Tim was very helpful, did a thorough check and confirmed that the clunking was not due to faulty brake replacement, and he didnt even charge me. Gave me great peace of mind. Next time I will be back to Brakes-4-Less to get them done.
Quick, precise about identifying my vehicle issue, my issue with the car is fixed, and guys were professional. I WILL be back here to get brake work done in the future.
Tim assisted me as Im here to bring my brothers car here for a break inspecting. As I type Tim was able to get parts ordered and in shop all within minutes after the FREE inspection. Diagnostic took less than 20 minutes as well. Great Service! I would definitely recommend
They are straight up with it ~ even to women! Fortunately, I know cars and the systems except the a/c system (I missed that part of class)! I will offer them if ever asked. 👍
Made an appointment for 4:30 today and they immediately pulled my truck in when I got here. Super friendly and knowledgeable staff! They made sure to let me know what I needed, what I could wait on, and the processes for the work they were doing during todays service. Definitely reccomend!
I’ve gotten both of my cars serviced here and the guys have done an amazing job informing me of the problem and providing excellent service. I would definitely recommend everyone to them for brake services.
Came in for a free brake inspection. Tim helped me out, and let me know exactly what was wrong with my brakes.I couldn’t afford the hefty price tag of his recommended repairs, but he helped me price together a repair that would get me back on the road and keep me safe. Highly recommend, will be back.
Great service at the Sam Rittenberg location. The staff was very welcoming and affordable . I will definitely recommend Brakes-4-Less everyday everytime.
All was good.
Love the atmosphere was greeted upon arriving ( brief conversation about football). The salesman asked what was wrong with my car and what I was experiencing. I got to see what the tech found on my brakes. There was no pressure to purchasing what I needed but he gave me an option to what I needed. Thanks for the help West Ashley Brakes 4Less.
When I say they were great to me they where. Help me get my car in order. I will be coming back for more work. There manager is the best
They told me to be there at 8:00 am and they were there and waiting! I spent 2 minutes giving them my information and was out of there really quick! Pretty much the quickest I’ve ever encountered!
My experience is that they were very confident, made sure that I understood the importants of the suggested service that I needed done.
I was very pleased with the professionalism of the workers and quality of work done on my Mercedes wagon and I will definitely recommend this location to my friends and family.
After calling around to Geralds, Firestone, and Midas, Brakes-4-Less offered the best deal on changing and replacing brake pads and rotors (1/3 of the cost of everywhere else)! Firestone and Midas insisted that given the age of my vehicle, Id have to replace both the pads and rotors and then proceeded to quote me and try and have me come in for a *free* evaluation.... As a female, we all know that that means theyll try and oversell to me simply because Im a female.... After bringing my car into Brakes-4-Less, Hector showed me my brake pads and explained that my brake pads and rotors were actually fine; the issue was my master cylinder. Hector worked with me to replace and install the master cylinder for a price you seriously cant beat. Its been 3 months and I havent had any issues at all. The honesty and professionalism of Hector was much appreciated.
The entire crew was friendly and made me at ease. Car is driving like a champ, and will try to post an update in 30 days to let everyone know if it still is. 15% on Wednesday is the deal!!! In and out in an less than an hour and half.
I greatly appreciate Tim’s help and service to ensure that I had safe brakes when I left the shop. A-1 customer service and satisfaction. Thank You!!!
Terrible! The $159 price on the business and website isn’t real. I only needed rear brakes and they somehow convinced my husband that we should get this package that replaced all brakes . I just had the front brakes done! When I called to stop it, the guy said, ”your husband agreed to it!” and that it was already done so there was nothing they could do. I had to pay more than double the price advertised! I then learned from my coworkers about multiple situations like that, that happened to them. They’re a scam!!!!!
Fast and friendly, fixed my brakes with no problems. Great service
Tim was great! Thanks for the service you guys were done quicker than promise and I was able to get on the road. The pricing was awesome and you did bet the others pricing.
They do great work and put a smile on your face. 🥰
Tim was very informative and helpful!!!! Highly recommend!!
Very friendly, quick service price is very reasonable
Tim was very helpful to me this morning. I will highly recommend brakes-4 less on Sam Rittenberg.Thank you,Sandra Parker
The staff here is awesome. I am very happy with the work that was done to my car. Highly recommended.
Great service! Honest work! Good price! In and out in two hours!
Gr8 place to get brakes done! Gr8 attitude. Much thanks to Tim.
Awesome service. Great prices. I will always carry my car here for brakes.
Like the service and will be back.
