Bradshaws Auto Repair - Fremont

Dec 04, 2024

My battery died on me and I got a jump but then was desperately driving from shop to shop looking for someone who could replace it within a reasonable time frame (it was a tricky job because of how my battery was situated in there). I drove around to multiple shops, including Les Schwab, and the wait times were crazy everywhere. Finally got to Bradshaw's and they seemed kinda busy but said they could get me in and out quickly. They seemed like conservative folks with a small-town vibe (American flags, country music, etc.) but were SUPER accommodating and kind, even though I'm visibly weird. They took care of my battery very quickly, while I sat at the dive bar next door (Korner Pocket, also highly recommend) and worked on my laptop. I will probably start taking all my cars to Bradshaw's now, for all services. Shanon, you're awesome!

I've been going to Bradshaws on Fremont for years now, and I am super lucky that they're in my neighborhood. They're always effective, their prices are reasonable, and they do an immaculate job at scheduling and repair/maintenance timeline. Special shout-out to Shannon at the front desk for always being a total joy!

Wanted to be sure to read all reviews before sharing my experience and found most reviews are a year or older. This should have been my first clue. Nor did I want to emotionally charged in my review. I WILL NOT be a repeat customer nor will I recommend this establishment. Bradshaws came highly recommended for my mechanical issue. I brought my truck in to have my a/c compressor pulley and clutch replaced. Bradshaws confirmed my mechanical issue and replaced said part only to have the new part make a worse noise than having the bad part on. I had the issue verified by two (2) senior mechanics and found the part to be defective. I asked Bradshaws to take another look at my vehicle and they did. Bradshaw recommended I replace my a/c compressor which was another out of pocket cost that I wasnt able to endure at the time. When I went to pick up my vehicle Shannon look right at me and said sorry I was only able to warranty the labor of my defective pully/clutch claim. Only solution was to spend another k. No other options given. If Bradshaw was able to provide a few options, they might have had a repeat customer. Only saving grace from one star to a two star is that Shannon gave me a 5% discount for being active duty military. Sorry Bradshaws, I'm still looking for that mechanic shop who gives options other than only one option. CIAO!

This is a great shop. We have brought our vehicles here multiple times over the years, and they are honest and thorough and reasonably priced and very nice. It is family owned, and Shannon and her team have always taken the best care of us, and I really appreciate and trust them.

I started going to Bradshaw's with our early 2000 Subarus after my last mechanic retired. They've worked on everything from our air conditioning to struts and suspension to basic oil changes. All the work we've had done has been thorough and fairly priced. Besides the good work, every time I go in it feels like I'm dealing with long time family friends -- to the point they'll tell you when you don't need something done or refer you out to someone else when they can't take it on...like a manual transmission rebuild. There are some other highly recommended Subaru shops closer in on the east side. I stopped in to a few to talk about a repair and get estimates before picking Bradshaws. Shannon and the team at Bradshaws won by a mile.

First class. Replaced my battery with a new Interstate. Took less than an hour. Fair price. Did not screw up the audio system. Perfect.

I was so stressed out with my car’s situation, but the team that I dealt with were incredibly kind and efficient. They even got my tire repairs done a day earlier than expected! Definitely coming back for all my future auto related needs ☺️

I wouldn’t take my SUV anywhere else. The staff are incredibly helpful, kind, and knowledgeable.

Recently I have taken two vehicles to Bradshaws Auto Repair and am very satisfied with the repairs. Trustworthiness, reliability and kindness are what I’ve experienced.

Dec 07, 2023

We’ve been working with them for several months now for our large fleet of vehicles, and they’re fantastic. Quick turnaround time, friendly service, always going above and beyond. Very highly recommended them!

For over 20 years I had the pleasure of working with the same mechanic. When he passed away, I was at a loss but Bradshaw's has been wonderful to deal with since his passing. My car is 15 years old so I'm replacing original equipment and that's expensive - Yikes! Bradshaw's has provided excellent service at reasonable prices. I plan to continue using their services in the coming years. Thanks to Steve and staff!

Professional, detailed, fast turnaround.

I highly recommend this shop for any and all work. I recently had the displeasure of doing business with a different local shop and after faulty repairs and negative interactions with them, I stumbled upon Bradshaws. I brought my vehicle in for some substantial repairs as a first-time customer. That same day I received news that my father had passed away and I needed to drive an extended distance to make arrangements for his service. I called Bradshaws to explain my situation and asked how long the repairs might take. They put a rush on the work and had it ready the very next day for me despite me being a new customer. I knew right then and there this was a caring establishment that I could trust. They have been forthright and trustworthy with me consistently, even telling me that certain repairs were not needed that I thought were needed. They are an honest establishment and are not trying to scam their customers out of money. As long as I am in the Portland area, I will only take my vehicle here and I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you for the excellent and reputable service, Bradshaws!

Had a check engine light for a evap throwing codes po442 and po446 and got a evap smoke test from them to trouble shoot my issue more !! Due to me replacing my evap sensor and the gas cap and hose clamps ! They told me on the service report that it was leaking from my leak detection pump and I replaced it and it’s been working ever since thank you very much I was ready to pull my hair out at that point !

I had used Bradshaw's Auto in the past and was always very pleased with their service, but due to a variety of reasons (none of which were attributed to their performance), I had not used them in years. I recently experienced issues with my windshield wipers and the check engine light had come on. I'm so glad that I have gone back to using them. They were very professional i.e. called before performing any repairs, explained exactly what was needed, and they were finished with my vehicle before the expected time. I highly recommend Bradshaw's Auto!

I used Bradshaw Auto on Hawthorn to do a vehicle inspection. They did a fine job, but charged $100 more than they advertise on their website. I told them this, and they said “Oh yeah, the website’s outdated.” Unprofessional, fix your marketing.

I’ve been coming to Bradshaw’s for about 4 years, and every time I am given the same professional customer service and stellar work. I know I am getting the best, integral service on my car. Shannon, Steve, and Michael are particularly great! I’m so glad I found this place!

Dec 07, 2021

Nice and helpful staff made the process of bringing in my car pretty effortless, but astronomically high labor costs for the work done. Over $200 just in labor to do a simple clutch and brake fluid flush.

Service was fast and the results was very good. I HAVE BEEN USING THIS COMPANY FOR OVER 61 YEARS ! GARY GILBERTSON

The quality of the work and the integrity of this business is unmatched. I always trust them to do the work I need and not oversell me on things I don't. They explain things so thoroughly and their customer service is phenomenal. My SUV is running better than ever at 140k miles.

Dec 07, 2021

Thoughtful, informative service and good pricing.

Dec 07, 2021

Honestly professional

Dec 07, 2021

Honestly the nicest and most pleasant auto shop experience I've ever had. I'm a big 'ol dummy when it comes to car stuff, but the folks here, especially Shannon, explained everything to me in the most crystal clear way that even I was able to understand what was wrong.

Dec 07, 2021

They take great care of my vehicle and me. The vice president is a woman and I'm pretty sure that contributes to me feeling respected. I feel more like a collaborator in the care of my car instead of just another customer

We have a fleet of vans we take to Bradshaw's regularly as well as our personal vehicles! As a company it is so amazing to have a auto shop we can TRUST and RELY on! We recommend Bradshaw's to everyone and will continue to recommend them and take our business there every time!
