Brake Zone was referred to me by a good friend and this mechanic shop has always treated me right! Thank you for your great service. They can handle BMW to Toyota and I am sure anything in-between I highly recommend.

Diego is the best mechanic Ive encountered. Hes honest and fair. I recommend everyone I speak with who is having car trouble to go to him. He was a life saver for me for years when I owned a 93 Mitsubishi. Anything he fixed never gave me trouble again.

I cannot express enough how amazing this place is. I took my car in this morning prepared to hear a $2k repair, but the owner Diego did a great inspection, and did a small fix and my car runs great! Its like night and day! I was crumbling thinking of the ordeal of selling the car and buying another, but now I dont have to. He was so friendly and courteous, I tried to pay him extra, but he insisted against it. A truly great person and mechanic. Definitely taking my car here if it ever runs into any issues and I recommend others to do so too. Would give more stars if I could.

Needed an emergency brake job on my daughters car while visiting from CA. Drove straight to Brakes Zone after finding it on Google. The manager/owner got us right in, gave me a quote, ordered the parts, and replaced the pads and rotors in about an hour without taking advantage of our situation. Truly grateful! I highly recommend this place - the best!

Review №13

Owners use of vulgar and foul language when handling a complaint. This happened after work resulted in damage to vehicles wheel rims causing a potential unsafe condition. I have been a loyal customer since the owner Diego opened around ten years, he has always been good to me. I am surprised at the way he treated my issue and simply requested his assistance in looking at the damage, instead I was cursed out over the phone.

I have had my fair share of car problems and repair shops and I have to say this place is AMAZING. Diego is not only extremely knowledgeable but he is very kind and generous. I am so blessed to have a place I truly can depend on. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my car! Thanks guys!!

We came in for four new brake pads. I compared several places as far as price before choosing Brakes Zone. Such a good price and excellent service! They even helped us out with a bad tire and told us options for getting it fixed. Only took 45 minutes and the building itself was very comfortable. We will be coming back for any car problems in the future!

By far the most trustworthy mechanic shop Ive ever used.Diego has been our company mechanic for over 10 Years and he also fixes all of my vehicles. I do not trust anyone else with my vehicles. He is truly amazing. His prices are reasonable and work is outstanding. He is very knowledgeable and professional. I even have my kids at college bring their cars over here so that Diego can fix them because his work is phenomenal.I highly recommend Brake Zone to anyone looking for an amazing trustworthy mechanic.

I have been a client of Diego for many years now and will not take my vehicle anywhere else. I have never experienced more honest and helpful people! Would recommend to everyone I know! Positive experience every single time I had my car serviced there! Do not go anywhere else if you are looking for honesty, great services and prices.

I am super SUPER impressed with Brakes Zone. I brought my wife’s car in for service (first time here) and they drove the car, diagnosed the issue and called me shortly after with the price for the work. The price was absolutely fair and the technician talked me out of spending excess money on services that I really didn’t need. Service didn’t take long at all and I got the car back same day. It was an awesome experience to say the least. I really appreciated that my wife’s car was treated with care and respect. I will 100 percent be back! Thank you, Brakes Zone!

This is the BEST mechanic shop in South Florida. I started going to Diego shortly after he opened and I have been a loyal customer since! I refer everyone I know there. He is honest, tries to same me money on repairs if he can and recommends ways to extend the life of my car. If he recommends that I need something, I know it is a necessary repair, unlike at the dealership! He runs an excellent small business, and I highly recommend anyone to see him for car repairs!

Phenomenal service. Diego and his team really go out of their way to make you feel welcome. Theyre very efficient on time and will always give you a time frame when your car will be ready. Another aspect that I respect is that Diego will not only tell you what is the problem, but he will physically show you and explain the issue. The Brakes Zone team is trustworthy, genuine, and always looks for the customers best interest. A big thank you to Diego and Brian!

Review №25

The first time I was sent to them by the people from the auto parts store nearby. I thought that spoke volumes in that they must have lots of customers that fix cars. I wasnt disappointed. I have been back twice and will be going in the morning. Diego is great, as is his wife, but let me tell you what really impressed me. While I was there the first time their drink dispenser took my money and the water didnt come out. Their teenage son was there and got down on his back to try to get the water out but when he couldnt went out back to their area and brought me a cup of water!! ALL THIS ON HIS OWN! This is a great family that is doing a great job in their business and with their family.

Ive been going to DIego at Braze Zone since i think 2011. Brake zone works over the years on my new cars as well as my late model cars. I recently had a Radiator put in my pickup truck. He does pickup trucks too. I first discovered Brakes zone when i was shopping brakes. He was the lowest. His guys fix almost anything not just brakes.

First time customer. Made an appointment to have my brakes checked. My car was on the lift and inspected within 15 minutes of my arrival. The brake system and entire suspension were checked, rear brake pads replaced, and I was on my way in about an hour. Great service!

Diego and his team are Amazing!!!!My co-worker took his mini-van and had such a great experience he recommended i take my Camry to get serviced with them. My Camry has ~250k miles and needed a good check up, Toyota quoted me $2,400 and Diego charged $600 and had everything done in 2 hours! And when i say everything, i want to be clear, the dealership gave me a detailed quote with a list of everything that needed to get done and the price per item, Diego did EVERYTHING and then some for a quarter of the dealerships quote. Also, he told me truthfully what needed to get done right now and what could wait. Amazing!For that reason alone, Diego and his team are clearly amazing but there is more. I took my car to Diego on my lunch and a member of his team (Junior) drove back with me to my office and then came and picked me up by 5 PM. Its like dealer service without paying 4x the price! Its amazing! Ive never trusted a mechanic before Diego and his team.Thanks Diego and your team!

Review №31

Terrible Service!I have been a customer here for a few years, as I thought that the manager, Diego, was somewhat honest. With that said, I came in recently at 8 am for a simple tire balance. Diego told me it would be a 4 hour wait, yet he took two walk in oil changes that came in after me, ahead of me! He was a nice guy in the past, but has not been so friendly recently for some reason (and I have given him a lot of business!) What an insult! I walked out, never to go back again! The shop was not that busy either, with empty service bays open! Respect your loyal customers Diego! And dont see walk ins before your loyal customers!Also, the shop times on the Brakes Zone website and here on Yelp are wrong! I told Diego about this (when I showed up one afternoon at 5 pm on a weekday, with posted hours until 6), and he said, No, those hours are wrong, I should have fixed those years ago! Good thing I didnt show up early on a Saturday, cause they arent even open! Yet the website states they are! Bad management! You wont be taking my money any longer....

I own a pest control co. I cant be stuck on the road. Diego not only got me running again quick he explained everything thats going on with my truck. You can tell Diego is earnest with the way you get treated and he stands behind his work. Without a doubt the best mechanic Ive come across in over 30 years ........a God knows Ive seen a lot. I wouldnt hesitate in coming here for service. Your in good hands

Absolutely OUTSTANDING!! They are AMAZING! Diego was excellent... He went above and beyond with advising me on what my car needed ( brakes wise) and finding the best prices for tires. He genuinely cares about taking care of the customer and your car!!I drive a Porsche and usually people try to over charge you or they dont know how to work on these cars BUT THEY DO KNOW HOW TO AND THEY DONT TRY TO OVERCHARGE YOU OR TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOU!!I honestly have to say that they do a better job than a certain Porsche dealership I used to go to..... FROM NOW ON I WILL BE GOING HERE FOR MY CAR AND I WILL BE TELLING ALL MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO GO HERE!If youre debating about going here .... Dont just GO or call after you talk to Diego youll see why they are rated 5 stars!Thanks Diego and Brakes zone for the amazing work and service ! I appreciate you guys!!!

Honesty and Auto Repair Shops are generally never in the same sentence.Brakes Zone is the Exception. They provide Honest Professional Auto Repairsand Maintenance. Diego (the owner) and the entire staff provide incredible serviceand repairs at a reasonable price. I have traveled sometimes over an hour just to have my car serviced at Brakes Zone and will continue to do so. The shop is clean and friendly. They provide almost any auto service needed. Brakes Zone is the real deal!Thank you!!

My brakes were making a loud screeching noise so I thought I needed new brakes. They checked them out and said my brakes are fine. Saved me from spending money unnecessarily AND offered to sand them down to help with the noise. Didn’t charge me anything! Super nice family-owned business. I will definitely come back next time I need anything done. Thank you so much!

Review №42

Ive never liked brake/oil shops because Ive never found one that didnt feel shady. I was super weary about reading these reviews because of Diegos perfect score here, but after meeting the staff and the shop that Diego has here, I would trust them with anything they tell me I need. I never, ever thought Id find a shop so awesome and trustworthy. Dont go anywhere else. Youve found the diamond in the rough with Diego and his shop.

Diego is one of the honest to G-d best mechanics I have ever had the pleasure of doing business with. Hes honest and truly cares about each customer.

The first time I went to Brake Zone I was treated as if I were a regular customer. I have gone back multiple times, and the experience is very good each time. The work done was excellent and the prices were cheap. Diego and the rest of the crew at Brake Zone are truly great and caring people and I highly recommend Brake Zone to anyone who needs work done on their car.

Went in today , greeted by Diego at first thought he was a nice guy. But after politely asking for my new car to be checked due to a engine check light poping up he says I can’t do anything today you have to leave or come back tomorrow. Even after that interaction I still planned on coming back after seeing all his good reviews I decided to give him a second chance and come back tomorrow. After leaving I was heading over to my doctor for a followup on my shoulder surgery I had a few weeks back but my car broke down on the way and now I am stuck on the side of a highway with a missed doctors appointment. Thanks again you smuck. Maybe next time try to take people seriously you fool.

The staff were very honest and helpful. I had issues with my brakes and they thought the issue was going to be an expensive fix. They discovered what the problem actually was while working on my brakes, and ended up saving me over $100! Great staff and excellent quality of work! Brakeszone has earned my loyalty as a customer!

If I could leave zero stars I would. The man who sold us our car took it here to be serviced, where they did an over ride on the check engine light. That way we had no idea that the lemon he sold us needed a new transmission. Thanks Diego.

I own a shop right down Oak Circle from these guys and actually found them by accident when looking for a replacement tire for my Ford F150 (Tire Kingdom didnt carry the brand I needed). I was shocked at the quick turnaround time, reasonable price, and customer service from the staff @ Brakes Zone. Since then, Ive had my truck in for service many times and never once has anyone tried to sell me on some $500 repair that needs to be done - something almost every other repair shop in Boca tries to do. I have recommended many friends to these guys and I 100% trust them, something Ive never been able to say about any other mechanic. Brakes Zone has my business, whether its for a $30 oil change or a $1000 repair.

Review №57

I needed a starter so I had my car towed here . It was the closest place to take ot to get it fixed . Long story short the next day Im called and told my car is ready for pickup . I just needed my starter replaced and in my car its very simple to get to the starter and replace it Id have done it myself had I had the tools . So the job took them an hour they start working on my car the next day at 9am Im called to pick it up an hour later at 10 am . Figures the place had no Yelp nor is it listed as a business . I get my car and it fires up so the starter is fixed but 3 min after driving down the road I notice a heavy vibration my car now has every time I press the breaks so I figure I should drive it a little more at least back to work before I turn around and ask them about it and perhaps it will go away . Im thinking maybe its a new fluid they introduced into my engine maybe. Really I dont know much about cars so I end up going back the same hour and speak to Diego I tell him to hop in so he can feel the vibration for himself and ask him what is it my car has never vibrated like this before. He tried to brush me off and tell me all they did was replace the starter and that he cannot get it he has to quickly go . The place is now apparently closed for the day after I pick up my car ?!?! I think this guy and this place are crooks and a RIP off bogus business . I feel I have been scammed . I paid over $250 to change out a piece no more difficult than a lightbulb and now Im stuck with a vibrating car like a drying machine . Do not go here this place is hidden and full of shady people . The place looks trashy and unclean it was a big mistake I made by not doing my research first and looking around but for convenience sake I brought my car here and now am screwed out of almost $300 and my car even though running runs in worse condition than before I brought it to these scam artists .

Had my car towed to Brakes Zone. Battery was good just would not start. Was called back within two hours with problem identification. Diego, the owner called me back and was prepared to fix the problem and have the car back to me by the end of the day. All of this transpired between 1:30 and 3:30. I told him the following day was fine and he advised me that there was an additional problem which would be better fixed at the dealer but that the car was drivable. This is why I use Brakes Zone: They always go the extra mile service wise.

After visiting a well known car dealership for a routine oil change and brake tune up, I left with mysteriously squeaky breaks. I returned to the dealership to a projected $250 fix for a problem that never existed until my initial visit. I left, disgruntled, and took my car to Brakes Zone to have the squeaking corrected. I am happy to report that the squeaky breaks were fixed honestly for what they were. I was presented with the most trust worthy, knowledgeable and friendly staff! Next time, I will skip the hassle and head straight to Brakes Zone!

Diego and Cecilia are the best. I have been having my cars, including my wifes car serviced by Diego and his professional crew, especially Edgardo and Tito always to my total satisfaction and at good prices. Diego couldnt find a spare tire (doughnut) at any of his suppliers so he recommended ASTRO AUTO SALVAGE where they had a brand new tire at a very good price. Thanks Diego your recommendation saved me a lot of money.Joe L.

Okay, so I only write a review if my experience is REALLY GOOD or REALLY BAD. This one REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY GOOD!!!We recently (last year) made Highland Beach our second home and now keep a car here. The engine light came on and I noticed a peculiar noise when I started the car upon our most recent arrival. I took it to an Authorized Acura dealer and was informed I needed $$$thousands worth of work.Long story short, I fortunately found Diego at Brakes Zone. He offered the same service at a fraction of the price, professionally explained the why and how of what really needed to be done, discussed future preventative measures to extend the life of the car, did everything in less than a day, and even added an additional discount to the agreed upon estimate after the work was done. Unheard of in this business.Needless to say I have found my Florida family mechanic.

I am the daughter of an auto mechanic. I was in Boca Raton on business when the brakes in my 1999 F350 truck went out. I contacted BrakesZone through the internet read the reviews and scheduled work. The truck brake line went out before the appointment, I had the truck towed there a few days early. Diego and the staff repaired my truck competently, with parts I requested from NAPA. The price was fair and the work quick and competent. He gave me a full estimate before the work was done so I could make sure it fit my budget. I am very happy with the work 4 months later with no problems at all.
