Customer complaint

I visited your store in El Paso Texas this morning ( may 20, 2023 @ 7:30am) the address of the store is 12204 Eastlake El Paso Texas 79928. I went in for a simple oil change and was greeted by an extremely rude employee by the name of Robert Cantù, whom is an assistant manager. I was about to explain to him about a past oil change that I did, at another Brake Masters, and was abruptly interrupted by Mr Cantu by stating, ok so whats your question then? I felt as though I was being rushed and that my service there was not appreciated. I was then able to continue on with my question, but I knew that I had made a mistake for going to that location. My first instinct was to leave. But I decided to stay, due to the fact that I had just gotten out of work and I was to exhausted to drive around finding another place. All in all, my oil change was done. Not once did I feel welcomed. Yet other customers were being treated fairly compared to the way I was treated. This coming from an assistant manager is uncalled for. I will certainly not ever go back to that shop plus I will not ever recommend anyone to go there. Horrible, horrible customer service. I always thought that the customer came first. I surely wasnt. Thank you for your time

Poor Quality and Expensive

My engine light came on, so I took the car into my local Brake Masters located at 851 E Thousand Oaks Blvd., California. The technician told me I needed a new mass air flow sensor. The charge would be almost $400. I agreed and paid to have the car fixed. Just 2 days later, the same light came back on. I called, and the technician told me it was a quick calibration. I returned the car only to be told by the manager that they could not calibrate my sensor and I needed to take it to the Nissan dealership. I then had to pay the dealership $300 a new sensor since the one sold by Brake Masters was an after-market part and it wasn't working properly. Brake Masters was $100 more than the dealership.

Very unprofessional

Went in for oil change. Got there when they opened the door, he never welcomed me in. When I went in, waited around 2-3 minutes, and he said, ( Well) told him I needed an oil change, and he asked me what oil I wanted. I asked him what do you recommend, it has around 100 thousand miles. He rolled his eyes at me and said, it's on the chart behind me. I will never go there again. I would rather go to Jiffy lube and pay double.

Bad service left my car broken

Original review Jun 16, 2021
Our team members take P.R.I.D.E. in their work Personal Responsibility in their work Personal Responsibility In Delivering Excellence, and we're confident you'll notice when you visit one of the hour locations. An Honest Brake Since 1983. History and pride are not valid when you provide an authentic experience if you don't lie, conceal inspection information, and charge more money. In my experience, Brake Masters charged me worth $992.29; according to them, it cost less than the dealership, which is not valid. This is a sign of a red flag. I ask them to install my car's rear drum, shoe brakes, and brake pads. I waited a couple of hours and finally, it's finished. I got my keys off for a spin and saw how the condition of my car was for a few days. Then, I've started to notice a high pitch noise coming out of my car each time I've taken a turn and used the brakes, so this seems off, so I went back to Brake Masters to do a brake inspection. As a result, the manager told me there's nothing wrong with the brakes, and it seems fine, but they didn't find anything wrong. This is part of another red flag for concealing the brake inspection information. I hear a high pitch noise coming from the car. Isn't it quite odd for a brake inspection. According to the dealership who did the brake inspection and found results and that is rear drum brakes found right rear drum brake adjusted too tight, back adjuster and test drove found noise return, removed the rear, and found the right bottom wheel adjuster not backing off, recommended replace left, and fitting rear brake shoe adjusters and hub nuts and evaluate the system as for Brake Master, another red flag for a failure for safety issue. From what I see, I am being charged for more money since I've paid $992.29. Let's go back to the word Trust is never to lie or conceal information from your customers; it gives you an honest break. How about dishonesty for the service you cause, delivering excellence? How about lousy service and insulting your customers being unprofessional. I remember one of the mechanics from the window I saw. He laughed sarcastically that it seems he won't fix the issue with my car and will make it worse instead. For the manager, he's not helpful and unprofessional and, from his face, is showing lies, deceit, distrust, and dishonesty. The way I see it, they will make it worse, so I keep coming back for more repairs, and they charge me more money as in pay per visit. The cause of my workdays to be canceled since it cost me more money, car service repairs for all the lousy service repairs the way I see it I don't recommend coming to this place. The way I see it there is no peace of mind, terrible service, unprofessional, and expensive cost. If you want a customer to gain back your trust, please don't lie and need a service recallthe result of a loss to one of your long-time loyal customers.

Scammers!!

Do$1500 worth of work. They put 10 quarts of oil in truck. Valvoline down the street drained out over 3 quarts. They also did not rotate the tires but did charge for it. Skip this place they are what is wrong with society. And the scammers Manager, Bo, said what you want me to do talk to you all day about it. Get over it. I am far from being over it, Bo! I will give you company $1500 worth of bad reviews and then some! Why? Because no one else needs to get scammed!!
