If you want to get assraped over car repairs, by all means, go to these assholes. They're still calling me up and tacking on additional charges for my car they've had for a week now..

I didn't realize it was a national chain. I just brought my car there because it's close to my house. Big mistake.

Doesn't sound very Christian or Brotherly.

Right up the road on Pecue is Neil's Automotive...I have been using him for years. Great guy and won't try to add things on unwarranted.

Details? I do not use Christian Brothers.. but with the mechanics I have used in the past, I get them to diagnose the issues then give me a price to fix. I can decide if I want to fix or not, if I do not want to pay their price, I just owe them a diagnostic fee

I went once and got some repairs like 15 years ago. Found out later they way over charged for the work they did and recommended a lot of unnecessary stuff (which I declined).

Never went back and have never heard anything good about them since.

Used them for an inspection in Dallas once, place seems to have a ton of overhead they need to cover. Very clean nice buildings and stuff but people just want their cars fixed reasonably.

All of them are doing shady add on shite. They lost money with no inventory on the lot due to global chip shortage, and they decided to make it up by treating everyone like a dumb unsuspecting blonde. I recently caught Giles Nissan trying to tack on charges, and I've been with them since I was a teenager. It's unsettling I know. Feel like they're pissing on your foot and telling you it's raining.

Way overpriced. I took a car to them recently and the quote was outrageous. Had the work done elsewhere for about 2/3 the price.

Details would help when you go online to destroy a business' reputation.

Are they brothers with the last name Christian

or

Are they black folks who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior?

They operate on a franchise model, more or less. Corporate builds and sells when the right partner comes along. I somewhat know a guy that owes a couple. He runs a very trustworthy operation. I've heard complaints about some stores. At the end of the day, it's a auto service facility. You never leave thinking you got a good deal.

I also didn't realize this was a national chain but a coworker is going through something similar right now. They started by replacing her heater blower motor and she's had to take it back twice now to replace more components of her cooling system. $700+ repair for each trip.

One of their locations in Austin got busted a couple of years ago for not performing the services they were charging for (oil filter change).

Lambs tire and auto also got busted.

Much like the Catholic priest they have no problem raping you under the cloak of Jesus. Used them in the DFW area a few times just felt slimy and fake to me.
