    Stuart has always done great work and at a good price. I've been going to him to fix all my automobiles for years.

    Back in April of this year I took my wife's car to Christian brothers. I had the coils and spark…read moreplugs were placed with parts I had purchased from Ford. I understood that they would not warranty the parts themselves, but I did expect them to be installed properly. My wife's car had 103,000 miles on it at this point and within a month of Christian brothers replacing all the coils in spark plugs one of the coils burned out. I had a reputable mechanic replace it thinking it was just an oddity. Within a few more weeks 2 more coils were dying. My wife thought it might be transmission problems and took it to a reputable transmission shop they ran the OBD2 and it showed that the coils in a couple of cylinders were going bad. Within 10 minutes of that diagnosis my wife had the car to Christian brothers. at this point there ws 107,000mi on the car. She showed them OBD2 the report and they basically thumbed their noses at it and said they had to run their own even though it's the same report. This cost I believe around $160, for the exact same test. They were rather curt about it to her, at this point she was exasperated and took it back to the other reputable mechanic who looked at the report and said, yes I see. I had him just go ahead and replace all the plugs and coils again. When I went to Christian brothers to discuss this matter with them they said because I provided the parts they have no warranty even though on the Christian brothers invoice it clearly says "Christian brothers automotive guarantees proper installation of guest supply parts that are designed manufactured and suitable for the guests vehicle in its current condition." I provided the parts Ford sold me and CB agreed that they were the right parts. They (CB) failed to gap the plugs. My wife's car requires a 0.031 gap and CB left the gap at 0.060 and said not gapping is "industry standard". While that is a standard excuse maybe, the mechanic should have been astute enough to check to make sure that he was properly installing them. The over gap caused the coils to work twice as hard or more than they would have if properly gapped the new plugs, thus burning the plugs and damaging the new coils. Gapping is basic engine maintenance practice. When I used to do my own maintenance, way back when, that was the first thing I did...gap the plug properly. Christian brothers does not want to honor this warranty. I am only happy that their mistake did not destroy my wife's car engine. If CB as a company really stands by their own warranties, they should refund their charges and the cost of having them all replaced again because of their improper installation.

    My truck makes my money, as for many business owners. CBA took my frantic call quickly and got my…read moreSilverado in for a diagnostic inspection. I really enjoyed the updated text from the technician every step of the way. My radiator needs replacing and CBA has an amazing turn around time. The shop is state of the art, the waiting area is peaceful and homely. You're clearly more than just money to Christian Brothers. Mathew Brown is a wonderful family man, with a kind heart and pure motives. You won't be taken advantage of when your vehicle knowledge is limited either. I can't say enough good things about a process we all see as stressful! CBA is the ' Chick Filet' of automotive repairs!

    I would avoid this company at all costs. I took my truck here after a mechanic diagnosed the…read moretransmission with a code, showing the lead frame in the transmission needed to be replaced. This was about a $850 project. Well these guys gave me a decent price to get me in the door. After a week of sitting in the same spot and no response, I went up there and he told me some bogus story stating the transmission needed to be rebuilt for $3500. I don't even think they looked at it. I could sense that he was feeding me a lie. So I got it towed to another transmission shop, who fixed the original problem for the $850. It didn't need to be rebuilt! They said it was normal wear and tear. I've been driving just fine for about three weeks now. There is a reason it looks like a vehicle graveyard in that place... is because nobody's vehicle is getting worked on, they are just sitting. The original owner built up a great reputation, the current staff has ran it into the ground. I hate to think of the people that they have taken advantage of over the years. These people are a prime example of why mechanics have a horrible reputation.

    When I finally got someone on the phone, I was told if I paid up front, I'd be first in line and my…read morecar would be done in a week. That didn't happen. A week turned into over a month, and I had to keep calling just to get any kind of update. Every time I got someone on the line, the story changed. When I finally got my Yukon back, the transmission still wasn't shifting right. I ended up having to get it towed to another shop to fix it the way it should've been done the first time. That shop had it done in a week, no issues. Now it's driving like it should've been from the start. I don't usually leave reviews, especially bad ones--but this needed to be said. After everything I was told about their "rebuild" and the money I spent, I expected a whole lot better. Do yourself a favor and take your vehicle somewhere that stands behind their work.

    There are still genuinely good people in this world, and Dean is one of them…read more While our family was on vacation in Orange Beach all the way from Texas, we started having trouble with our Suburban. We took it to a nearby shop, and they told us we needed a brand-new transmission--at a cost of nearly $9,000. Our hearts sank. We knew we needed a second opinion, so we asked around, and over and over we heard the same name: Dean. From the moment we met him, we could tell he was different. He didn't rush to diagnose the problem or try to sell us something we didn't need. Instead, he took the time to ride with my husband, listened carefully, and within 10 minutes he had a completely different opinion. He believed it was a simple issue involving a part that would cost around $150--not a transmission. When he finally had the chance to inspect it, he discovered it wasn't even a bad part. It was simply loose. He fixed it... and then refused to charge us a single penny. That moment said everything about the kind of man Dean is. He could have charged us hundreds--or even thousands--and we would have trusted him because we were stranded far from home and desperate to get our family safely back to Texas. Instead, he chose honesty over profit, integrity over opportunity, and kindness over convenience. In a world where it's easy to lose faith in people, Dean reminded us that there are still individuals whose character is worth far more than any repair bill. Dean, thank you for your honesty, your compassion, and for treating our family the way you would your own. We'll never forget your kindness, and we'll never stop recommending you to anyone who needs someone they can truly trust.

They checked out all my sensors on my truck to make sure nothing would tear up the transmission they rebuilt fir me. They had it ready exactly when they told me it would be done. Great customer service and friendly staff. Even parked it in a safe spot where I could pick it up after hours cause I had to work late. I would recommend this shop to anyone and everyone. Thank y'all so much for fixing my truck right and taking the time and explaining everything that you did to fix it. Definitely 5 stars wish I could give 10
