Christian Brothers Automotive Buda

"This was my first experience with Christian Brothers Automotive Repair and I can’t say enough about them. But first, I would be remiss, if I didn’t mention two individuals in particular, Sybil and Jerry. They were both professional, but most important, cared about my situation. You can tell when people truly care. They are definitely, an asset to Christian Brothers. I now have a place I trust for my vehicle repair."

"I went to the Christian Brothers to diagnose a noise coming from the front end of my Toyota Highlander. They correctly diagnosed the issue as a worn U-joint on the drive shaft. This required a new drive shaft to be installed. No problem. The issue I have is the amount that they were trying to charge me. Most people don't know much about cars and just pay the bill because they don't know any better, and the guys at Christian brothers seem very nice and honest. They said a new drive shaft would be $2000, and the labor to remove the old shaft and install the new one would be $650. This seemed wildly overpriced to me. It only takes about an hour to remove the old drive shaft and put a new one on. I ended up calling Advance auto parts to see how much a new (non-aftermarket drive shaft) would be. They said $1500. That's the consumer price, Christian Brothers would most likely get that part for cheaper than $1500, considering they are a big shop and get discounts. So right off the bat, I know they are probably upcharging by at least $500 for that part. I told Christian brothers I thought their prices were way too high, paid the $150 diagnostic fee, and took my business elsewhere. I ended up finding a new aftermarket drive shaft for $350. I called GA-automotive and the owner there happily removed my old drive shaft and installed the new one for $100. That's more then 6x cheaper then Christan brothers wanted to charge me. I couldn't believe it. I just spent $450 total to fix this issue that Christian Brothers said would be $2650. Make sure you get second opinions and figure out if what they are trying to charge you is actually reasonable. GA- automotive was very knowledgeable and reasonable."

"I have used Christian Brothers on several occasions over the past few months and am always satisfied with the quality of the work and the timeliness of getting it done. They are reliable in terms of doing things correctly and on time. I have been working with Brian and he has been exceptionally helpful."

"They replaced my starter quickly at a reasonable price. Christian Brothers also has an OUTSTANDING 3yr 36,000 mile parts n labor warranty. Which ever comes LAST!!!"

"Not a good place to take your car they will scam you a diagnostic for my car almost $200 just so they can tell me what’s wrong with it after that they changed a sensor but never was the problem took it back and diagnosed other parts an said maybe this is the problem, but never was the problem they tried to charge me $2500for a timing belt an chain kit. Not professionals at all. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND."
