The map here with Yelp (based on Google Maps) is wrong. This salvage yard is indeed on N. Harvey Mitchell Pkwy., but it is 2-3 blocks west of Hwy 6, not where you see it on the map inset. It is shown correctly in Yahoo! Local, & Ask City. This is easily verifiable using Google Maps/Earth satellite imagery. That said, I made use of this salvage yard a little over a year ago, and while I didn't agree with the reviewer on Yahoo! Local, I did have a positive experience overall. I found one item on my list that visit, although I had to wait to speak to the counter-guy, then wait for another guy to direct me to the parts car I needed. I then had to wait for a talky customer when I returned to pay. But I think this place may have changed owners. The last time I was calling the local salvage yards, I had a heck of a time with this place over the phone. No one here pronounces a discernable greeting, so you start the call unsure you called the right place. They seem to take this with surly impatience, and they only become more curt as you try to articulate your question, and probably become either flustered or angry. The last guy I spoke with had an accent like one of the guys at nearby Autostar on Hwy 21. I really had no interest in finding out, since I can find that sort of behavior for free, without driving that far. If you do want to call them, then know the exact name for the part on your car, and learn which years have the same part. And then have them pull the part for you to have it ready, so you don't have to wait, or enjoy their churlish demeanor. Oh, I think they close early, possibly at 4 PM, whereas I've never been turned away from Gordon's at 5 PM, and have stayed there past 6 before. read more

Bryan Auto Recycling replaced my engine in January of 2010. The price was low, but it took almost 3 weeks to accomplish this task. The day I went to pick up my car, I checked under the hood before leaving. They drained every one of my fluids and did not fill a single one back up. They also disconnected the hose going to my windsheild wiper and didn't bother to reconnect it (makes the blue stuff spray on the window). The engine they sold me had a faulty water pump which is inside the engine, but this is an accessory therefore not covered by the warranty. Mysteriously my AC broke with all of their "repairs" and has never worked since and never had a problem before. I was also told they would be able to pick me up to retrieve my car which changed the day my car was ready (to get it myself). Before this "repair" none of my fluids leaked. Now my power steering fluid leaks (due to a missing gasket-promise I didn't lose it), the coolant drains, and the oil leaks. If you go here do not let them touch your car!!!! but you can find parts fairly cheap. read more

I have been to Bryan Auto Recycling more than once. Today I went there. I must say that Mike, the owner, Kenneth and Pete (employees) are great guys. I was taken care of, they were funny, polite, helpful, I had a great time. I asked for the car part I was looking for. They told me they'd bring one for me to see if I liked it. I was not that happy with it, it was more or less. They were very nice to show me other similar parts, Mike himself went around helping me to find other cars like mine. I asked if I could take the part out of the car myself, because I learn about how to fix stuff. Mike had no problem with it. The part was quite affordable, I was very happy. I spent a long time there talking and chatting. The four of us talked about everything. Pete even speaks some Spanish, which is not my native language, but I can speak it myself. It was fun. It is a hot day today, I asked for some tap water, they gave cold filtered water. I felt pretty much at home with those guys, easy to talk to. We laughed a lot, it was fun. Go there, but make sure you show up with a great attitude, and I'm sure you will be treated as well as I was. Actually, I am going back there tomorrow for another part. Tell them Daisy, from Brazil, said they are great guys and treat people well. They may remember me. Thank you Mike, Kenneth and Pete for the great service, customer service is key in any business. Customers love that. :) Daisy read more
