Feb 06, 2025

Tom was VERY informative, diagnosed the vehicle thoroughly.


Feb 06, 2025

The service at Brach’s is always exceptional , at a fair price, and the work gets done on time. I have been going to Brach’s for over 20 years and the service is always top notch.


Feb 06, 2025

My experience was wonderful they were honest and went above and beyond I would recommend Brachs to everyone


Feb 06, 2025

I will always bring my car to Brach's. I used them for a problem I was having with my car and they were very honest with me . Very kind and trusty worthy .


Feb 06, 2025

I have been going to Brach's for 35 years now and counting. They stand behind the work they do and explain in detail what needs to be done on your vehicle and why. I used to live near Brach's, but for the past three years I have been driving 60 miles round trip to have my three vehicles serviced.


Feb 06, 2025

Tom and his team provide a great service experience.


Feb 04, 2025

For me, trust is everything in a mechanic. I totally trust Brach's. Tom goes above and beyond to explain options, never talking down to the customer. He understands the value of the investment in your car and looks at long-term and short-term needs.


Feb 02, 2025

Friendly and caring that's awesome and important to me and great job and you get much more don't change anything it work


Feb 01, 2025

Glad I found Brachs. Honest feedback and thorough. Never charge for anything not necessary. Will go back anytime, every time. Thanks Tom!!


Jan 31, 2025

Awesome work Very thorough and reasonably priced Highly recommended


Jan 31, 2025

Best auto care I’ve ever received.I trust these guys.


Jan 31, 2025

Great work as always from Tom and his crew. Always leave here more than satisfied with the work performed on my vehicle.


Jan 31, 2025

I have been a customer of Brach’s since about 1995 and I can’t say enough about the service they provide. They are competent without question, honest and friendly. I have since moved away from the neighborhood but value their service to the extent I drive past a litany of other shops to take all of my vehicles to Brachs. I can’t recommend them enough. Update I always recommend Brachs to my friends and family. I tell them you can trust the guys at Brachs, they’re honest, and reasonable, not always something you’ll find in a mechanics shop. I take my vehicles nowhere else. They’re busy all the time which is a sign of a reliable service-based shop. Update of update Again Brach’s has proven their honesty and integrity, advising me to go to the dealer for warranty work when they could have pulled the wool over my eyes. Saved me a ton of money. Thank you, Tom. You have my business now and forever!


Jan 31, 2025

I'll tell ya one for sure...I'll never go back to a firestone ever again. Tom was informative, kind, and straightforward. He took the time to explain the fix to my jeep and why it was necessary. He shared before and after pictures and had me back on the road in no time. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY he saved me from a predatory quote I got from a shop down the road. I will most certainly be back for any future car needs I have--thanks Tom!


Jan 31, 2025

They do great work at a fair price. Above all they are honest. I Highly recommend them!!


Jan 24, 2025

Excellent service and real concern for folks that have auto issues!


Jan 24, 2025

FANTASTIC as usual. Excellent service


Jan 24, 2025

Great knowledge, fair pricing and informational about overall health of your entire vehicle regardless of the issue you brought it in for


Jan 24, 2025

Honest, thorough, friendly. By bringing my car there I was also given a heads up on what maintenance might be coming up from true experts so that I can prepare my wallet and avoid unnecessary damage to the vehicle. Equally, they were honest about what was unnecessary— ie telling me I didn’t need new spark plugs for another 15k miles. A rare gem!


Jan 24, 2025

I can't say enough positive things about brach"s. Highly recommend.


Jan 24, 2025

Jan 17, 2025

Brach's is the best!! I read the reviews of Brach's before my first visit many years ago, and I have consistently found them to be true: This is THE best place to bring your car. Tom is fair AND honest. He will not do unnecessary work on your car, and you will be satisfied with the results. He is so knowledgeable about cars and their manufacturers and is able to tell the customer exactly what is needed to be done. I never worry about my car when I bring it to Brach's. It's always in good hands at Brach's. Always.


Jan 17, 2025

Great service and communicated very well. Will definitely recommend and my new mechanic


Jan 17, 2025

Great service as always; Im so glad I found this shop for my srt8—Tom does excellent work and is very straight forward and professional; no BS from this establishment—if it’s not broken and doesn’t need immediate repair, best believe Tom will lay it out straight for you


Jan 17, 2025

The owner Tom was very professional and knowledgeable of what I needed to be done. He took the time to explain everything to me that needed to be done. This was my first time going to Brach's Auto. I was very satisfied. I give them 2 thumbs up. 👍👍. I will be going back to them again for all of my car care needs. 😎😊
