Jeremy was kind enough to shuttle me home and back when the work was completed. Technicians were professional and do quality work. I will be going to the Detroit Garage-Livonia for all my future auto needs and highly recommend them.Special shout out to Matt Scramm for suggesting I go here.Mike

Comment: Had a great experience with Livonia Garage. Went in for an oil change and tire rotation. Staff is excellent and great at communication and explaining things being done. They also take pictures to show the client so you know what is wrong with the vehicle. You also get a detailed receipt with pictures and an estimate if more work should be done! Highly recommend this place!

Comment: The Livonia garage hands down gave me the best experience Ive ever had with anyone in this industry. The employees Sean, Jeremy, and David are the reason this happened. They gave me the best customer support Ive ever received and were extremely helpful with diagnosing my vehicles problems and repairing them. Every repair they have done on my car has not had any issues since after the repairs. As well as that all employees are extremely friendly and do their best to understand your circumstance and what they can do to help you. When anyone ever asks me where they should go to get their car repaired, I always say The Livonia Garage as its a repair shop you can trust.

Comment: The Livonia location of the Detroit Garage has helped me out twice now when I was in a position that my vehicle needed urgent repairs. They were kind and caring, listened to my situation and were able to fit me in the same day to get my car back up and running. The waiting area is comfortable and stocked with bottled water and coffee. Their prices are fair, and I dont feel like I need to be on guard against getting taken advantage of.

Comment: This was second experience as my car needed rear struts. I called and they remembered me. I scheduled an appointment to drop off my car and I could see from the amount of cars they were busy. Two days later not only did I receive a call that my car was done they washed it as well, they even cleaned my wheels. 5 stars I would highly recommend this car repair. Located on Middlebelt in Livonia Michigan. Check them out.

Comment: We typically use our dealership for repairs but we’re facing a long wait time. I found The Detroit Garage (Livonia), and scheduled an appointment. We required a tow for our BMW and the tow company they exclusively work with were quick and efficient, the handoff to the garage was seamless and the garage service managers were helpful and friendly. I appreciated that everything could be done remotely and they took pictures of each check they made on our vehicle, which I had never seen before. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Comment: My 2003 Mustang stuttered and quit running at Livonia Costco. I found the Livonia Garage by proximity and good ratings. They confirmed they could handle a somewhat lowered car over the phone and would work me in the next day, so I had AAA tow me there. The check in was a good experience along with progress calls. They traced the issue to the fuel pump and had me back on the road less than 48 hours from drop off with a new fuel pump and fuel filter. I am grateful for the care in which they handled my Mustang.

Online checklist of recommended service was convenient and easy to use. Price is as stated, no gimmicks. Overall I’m pleased with the speed and quality of work, and plan to return if I need service again

Comment: They were able to fix a flat tire for the the same day for a minimal amount of money. They did recommend new tires (already knew I needed them) and did not pressure me at all to purchase them. And honestly, because of that, I did use them for new tires. They also did an oil change. Everyone we interacted with was helpful and kind. We will definitely be back!

Comment: The poor experience at Lafontine Mazda of Livonia made me stop at the Livonia Garage.Over here, the front desk person is receptive, able to provide the exact service you need, give a proper estimate of charges.Though, I serviced my car at Farmington Garage because it was closer to my house, I would suggest Livonia Garage, because its way better than the stealer-ship named Lafontine Mazda of Livonia (Service) few streets away.

Comment: These Mechanics make all the difference. What a knowledgeable and thorough team. They fixed up my dad’s 20 year old Explorer with integrity and speedy! I was impressed that they rejected some repairs after they deemed it not necessary, they could have easily padded the job but did only the needed work. It’s a pleasure to take your car here and it’s people you can trust.

Comment: Dave and Jeremy are angels in disguise. I needed my fuel pump fixed ASAP and they fixed it in one day. Then two weeks later I needed a new starter, my car is 14 years old and I am not ready to part with it yet. They fixed that and found out there was another problem with the ignition. They didnt charge me for that because I am a loyal customer and they knew how much Id been through in the previous week with my car. Their mechanics are top notch and like I said Dave and Jeremy are customer service pros. I highly recommend their services. I am a fan for life no matter what car I will have.

Comment: My car was making a TERRIBLE grinding noise. I called and they said they’d fit me in the next day. On the phone they were straight forward with me about their service time and how if they needed to order parts it might take a few days to fix my car but that they’ll have it checked out within a couple hours of my appointment to know what they’d need. I ended up towing my car there and they looked at it right away in the parking lot. Shifted a couple things around with the breaks and the grinding has officially stopped. I consider that a raging success. They assured me it was alright to drive so I am now able to drive my car again right after my appointment! He(sorry I’m terrible with names but I think it was Dave?) said if I had any further problems to bring it back to them and they’d fit me back in again. Their service was more than friendly and prompt. It’s hard to find service places that don’t swindle you or belittle you just because your a woman. They took the time to tell me a few things about my breaks, what to look out for, and reassured me on the safety of my car. I felt more than comfortable with their care and knowledge. 10/10 recommend! They’re worth it!

Comment: As a customer of Bill Brown Auto Clinic (now The Canton Garage) I decided to take my wife’s car in for an oil change. I asked Zach to take a look at the struts. Zach said it’s not required now. The industry is riddled with capitalist repair shops. It’s refreshing to find a repair shop that isn’t. You now have a valued customer. Here’s to the start of a beautiful friendship!

Comment: I brought my f150in after making a appointment. My truck was inspected and diagnosed in a short time even though they were short staffed this particular day. I believe the repairs were done very well all things considered. I would recommend the Livonia garage to anyone and everyone. Very professional place.

Comment: The shop is very kind and courteous. I mainly went to the shop because I was getting tired of the dealerships ridiculous prices, as well as being over 30 minutes away from me. They did a great job inspecting my vehicle. They performed a front end alignment and it feels like my car drives a bit more straight now. They also changed my brake fluid and they feel a bit less spongy now. I will definitely be coming back to this shop for other maintenance in the future.

Prompt, professional service at a fair price.. certainly hard to find in the COVID pandemic era.. the guys at livonia auto well be getting our repeat business!

Comment: Excellent service!! I contacted Livonia Garage to schedule an appointment for my 1967 Ford Galaxie. I had a few issues and needed a one stop shop. The service advisor was upfront and honest and kept me in the loop through the entire process. I have owned this vehicle for nearly 10 years and this is the first repair facility that not only identified the issues but successfully fixed the problem. I highly recommend!

Comment: Their customer service surpasses their workmanship, which is backed with warranty.UPDATE AS OF APRIL 2021:To comply with current pandemic policies, and to provide peace of mind to their customers, they are currently providing contactless pickup and delivery of your vehicle, and/or, at least for me, they provided an Uber to take me home and return me to pick the vehicle up once in a service, ALL FOR FREE. I cant say if this will continue BUT if the reasonable prices for the service doesnt get you, the quality of the customer service will definitely keep you.

The people are very friendly, they even gave me a ride home when I didn’t have one!!!This will be my new place to go to, also they had no issues working on my Volvo, a lot of places I called wouldn’t work on a Volvo.

Comment: My experience with The Livonia Garage was great. The online appointment registration is a big help, theyre responsive, and when theyre working on your vehicle you get updated on everything they do through an email link. When they recommend services you get to choose which ones you approve through the link they send, and theres no pressure from them to add a bunch of services. They also didnt recommend anything to me that was unnecessary, or push me on any I turned down. Between the great tech integration, the friendly staff, and the quick service I cant recommend them enough.

Comment: Saw that they were AC/DC certified to work on hybrids so I took my Toyota hybrid over for an A/C diagnosis. Due to the nature of the hybrid a/c system it requires special attention and can be easily contaminated if treated as a standard belt-driven system, so I made sure I took it to a shop that knew what they were doing. They did great work, fairly priced and very kind service. It took a little longer than expected and they offered to pay for a rental, but we didn’t necessarily need it. Would go back again!

Comment: I’ve had several people work on my car in the area and none have I found to be satisfactory. When I drove up to Livonia Garage the first thing I noticed was the cleanliness of the outside as well as the inside. LG put on new brakes which I am totally satisfied. They also gave me a list of all the things that needed attention. But, this is the kicker! They called to see how everything was going and was I satisfied with the service I received. I thought that was AWESOME! A doctor office yes, but to put brakes on. NEVER. I am now married to Livonia Garage! NO MORE HANDS ON MY CAR ONLY LG!

Despite the problems they were honest about what needed to be done, how long it would take, and even worked with me on not breaking the bank trying to fix them. They provided a loaner car and were very helpful during the whole process, and made a bad situation bearable. I have found a new go-to garage in Livonia. Thanks again Mike,Dan and their mechanics for a great job.

My car ended up being expensive to fix but they worked with me to make it a little more affordable. I love the fact that they offer rental cars so that I wouldn’t be inconvenienced and when I picked up my car they had even washed it. I will always bring my car there. The service is impeccable.

Comment: By far and away the best experience I have had at a mechanic in years. I dont usually leave reviews, but my experience at the Livonia Garage definitely warranted one.Mike was extremely knowledgeable, even moreso than some of the techs that I have spoken with at the BMW dealership themselves. The staff at the Livonia Garage made sure my BMW was taken care of, and worked with me to give me quotes for all of the future services that will need to taken care of on my car as well as thoroughly answering my many questions. The prices were fair, and Mike was familiar with certain things that are unique to my car, which made me very comfortable having my car serviced here.They did a great job aligning my car, even though many other shops wouldnt touch it or mark up the price simply due to it being a German car. I will absolutely be bringing my car back for service here, along with the 5 other cars in our garage.

Comment: I had an excellent experience at The Livonia Garage. This was my first time there and I will definitely be coming back. Both the customer service, quality and price all hit the mark and make this a great place to take in your vehicle.To start, I like the fact that I was able schedule an appointment for a front wheel alignment about 2 days out from the weekend. This made the process of coming in easy and I was in and out in about 30 some minutes. I was even offered coffee and water which is always a nice touch in customer service.The price for what I had done was beyond exceptional. They even made an adjustment that was just slightly off but would normally have been an additional charge. They did this just as a courtesy. Normally car repair businesses nickel and dime you on everything, so the fact that they did this amazed me.What I found refreshing and different from auto mechanics was that they showed both before and after photos of what had been going on with my vehicle. I was able to see what my vehicle was before the adjustment and how it looked after. As someone who knows just a smidge about auto mechanics, I really enjoyed learning this.I highly recommend The Livonia Garage and will be back!

Livonia Garage must have a lot of experience to have been able to figure out what was wrong because it was not a simple diagnosis. I recommend and trust Livonia Garage for all viewers of this post.Best,Shannon Easter

Comment: I found out my 07 Ford F-150 had an oil pan full of antifreeze so I had it towed to Livonia Garage. I found there service personnel, Mike Hayner, to be very easy to work with. I told him my budget and he did everything possible to keep it in the agreed quote. I had to replace the engine which they did. This all happened just before opening day deer gun season. They did everything they could to make sure I was up north on opening day. During the process of replacing the motor the mechanic found obvious issues with parts of the old engine that were going to fail which I knew before hand so I had them replaced. The crew at Livonia Garage are conscientious, very very good at their jobs in all aspects and I was very happy with the final outcome. My new(older engine) ran like it was brand new. My gas mileage was even better than before on freeway driving. I would invite anyone with car issues to see Mike and his crew before going anywhere else for mechanical work. As a matter of fact the next week after I came home from hunting I had Mike put two new tires on my wifes car. The whole experience was painless and stress free.

Everybody was extremely nice and service was fast. Phones were ringing off the hook, and they were professional and understanding of people wanting to get in that day. They also had complimentary coffee, hot chocolate and water in the lobby. Well be back next week, to get the oil changed on our other vehicle.

Unfortunately I didn’t have all the info they needed and it was decided it would be easier if I came in. Right away they quoted me and gave me a timeline.. 3 hours. The Livonia Garage was able to complete the job in less than half the time and for half the quote. I will definitely be back.

Comment: Soo.... I rarely post about businesses but I MUST post about this place. Livonia-ish friends, this is the best auto repair shop I have ever come across. They were quick. Honest and over the top.I brought my car in cuz I was pretty dang sure my brakes needed redone, there was serious metal on metal noise. They looked at it and determined it was not at all breaks but something much more serious. They worked with my warranty company and had it done withing 24 hours of bringing it in.Heres the over the top stuff... they washed my car, vacuumed the front carpet, gave me cookies and drinks while I did paperwork. They gave me a rental.Honest work. Honest people. Quick and convenient.So if your looking for a new place to bring your car in for maintenance, The Livonia Garage is the best.

This is my second visit and both times, the service was quick (Even when they are busy). Prices are excellent. Both visits were for different brake problems. They diagnosed the problem, gave me a fair estimate, and, are you ready for this?, They gave me a car to use while they worked on mine. I highly recommend Budget Brakes for any work you need done. You will not be disappointed! Thanks folks.

Comment: I had a rear end accident happen to my 2007 ford freestyle and the alignment was off bad. This is an all wheel drive vehicle. The car had to get a bar replaced which I expected due to the impact... but in all... my alignment is spot on. Drives like a champ. So, I requested a quote today due to me wanting to return for a 2nd visit... ever .... and I was quoted much much less then other phone calls made after them. I really hope my brake pad repairs are just as satisfying as my alignment!! I love supporting the locals!

Comment: I am a local small business owner and I like to support local small business. I went to this shop for that reason and because it was a mile from my house. I have had my diesel in there 3 times since and will never take it anywhere else. Great service. A level of honesty amd integrity rarely found in mechanics these days. Competitive prices. Couldnt ask any more from an auto shop. Well done guys!

Comment: Was recommended by a belle tire 2 years ago and now drive from wixom to Livonia for all repairs. I was also happy that there was no need to haggle with the first price I am givin is always reasonable. Fair pricing with outstanding quality and a down to earth staff is hard to find nowadays , thanks Chris and appreciate everyone involved.

Comment: If you are looking for outstanding service @ a reasonable price, this is the place to go. I was referred to this shop several years ago by Discount Tire also on Middlebelt Rd in Livonia, and I have been going there ever since. My issues have always been accurately diagnosed and resolved the first time around. I highly recommend that you give them a try. Im sure you wont be disappointed!I had my car serviced there just yesterday for an oil change, heater that went cold during idling and a loud muffler. I left there in a warm, quiet, smooth riding car with improved gas mileage. My car always uses less gas when it is in top working condition. It was a win win situation for me.

Comment: Budget Brakes of Livonia was referred to me, and even though I have lived in the area for 15 years, I never been there. The manager Chris was very helpful with giving me a quote up front on my repair and they did the repair faster than I expected with reasonable prices. I will recommend them to all my friends.

Comment: Got new tires at a place that recommended these guys for an alignment. Not only was the price right but Chris was awesome and the work/explanation was top notch. Unlike so many other shops Ive been to, these guys will treat you with respect! This is hard to come by in auto shops. I love finding outstanding small businesses who do things right and cant recommend these guys enough. I will be coming back for other repairs in the future.

Comment: I had a special situation where I needed a wheel bolt removed from a wheel stud, they were able to help out and fix the problem. Budget Brakes did not try and oversell in any way…. They were honest and work was very good. They performed a good job going beyond and above what they had too. Very good customer service!

Comment: Needed front brakes on my wifes Lexus 470. This is not my first rodeo - the Chevy dealer I frequent quoted me $350 (but then said they didnt have the equipment to do it), the Lexus dealer quoted $900 and the Toyota dealer, $600. I chose Chris and co because their quoted price was around $350 AND they had a loaner car. In the end, I had a seized caliper. My total was closer to $650 than $350 BUT, still right around what the Toyota dealer quoted just for the pads and rotors. Good quality, friendly service, fair price and a loaner car. What more would you want?

Comment: After picking up a new windshield washer line from the dealership, I took my car into Budget Brakes to have Chris and his crew install the parts. When I went to pick it up, he indicated the service was on the house and didnt charge me. Ive been taking my family vehicles to Budget Brakes for a while and this only confirmed what I already knew. The team at Budget Brakes is second to none. The helped me out in a big way and earned a customer for life. I wont be going anywhere else for car repairs.

Comment: Cant say enough... Joe, Chris, Matt, and Nick, Thank you all for the fantastic job you all completed on my Chevelle! Told these guys I was in a time crunch getting my car back on the road, and they delivered. I cant say enough good about this shop and the people that run it. They did exactly what I needed done and exceeded my expectations. Anytime the owner of a company will take it upon himself to leave his business to track down missing parts (which was not any fault of theirs) to complete a job to accommodate a customer..this is the best customer service anyone could ask for. I appreciate all you guys and will spread the word to anyone I come across needing work.

Comment: Budget Brakes in Livonia far exceeded my expectations, when they replaced the exhaust system on my 2005 Scion xB. They were honest, fair, and unbelievably fast! This was my first experience with them and I will definitely return for future repairs. I would recommend them to anyone!

Comment: My experience has been nothing but the best. The first time I took my wifes car in to get repaired, Chris and his team expected the damage and gave me a estimate that was more than reasonable. They had the car fixed in a day as promised. I have gone back numerous times and the experience and results have been the same every time. It is good to know that there are local businesses that still have honest and hardworking employees.

Comment: Finally found a place where we can take all our vehicles for service and that we can recommend to our friends. Weve had an alignment, brakes, oil change and a used car evaluation. Chris is friendly and explains everything; a wonderful change from past experiences. They are quick and thorough. Will be taking another of our vehicles in for service next week. No hesitation in giving them a 5 star rating.

Comment: My recent visit to Budget Brakes & Service was a pleasant experience. Chris was courteous as always while checking in my car. The service was prompt and after my car was ready the technician pulled my car out front of the shop. As always, I appreciate the courteous and professional manner in which Im treated. I remain a loyal patron as I have been for years.

Comment: I had taken my car some wear for oil change and it was a disaster they used some cleaner and my oil was turned to a thick yellow mess. I went in to budget brake and spoke with Chris. He took my car right back and changed my oil and did a flush on the engine. I have taken my car many time and never had been disappointed. Chris is a great guy and is up front and honest.Thanks Budget Brake for being a honest business that can be trusted.

Comment: The guys at budget brakes provided excellent service. When another shop informed me I had a rear main seal leak on my 2007 Malibu, Chris and his team went to work to double check the diagnosis. After their honest and thorough inspection, the guys at Budget Brakes informed me it was nothing more than my oil filter leaking due to improper installation. Their honest work saved me big bucks and for that I will be a repeat customer from here on out. Thanks guys!!!

Comment: It is great to find a place to take all my autos and feel confident that the repair will be done right and at a fair price. I also trust that only repairs that are needed will be discussed. I will have all my repairs for my cars done here and also recommend Budget Brake to other family members.The current repair was to a 2008 Saab and I was worried about being overcharged for the braking system but the price was fair and the time to complete was short.Sincerely, Greg Rapelje

Comment: I had to have my brakes done about a month ago and after reading all the reviews, it was an easy decision. My experience only confirmed the great reviews that I read online. The guys were so helpful and extremely friendly, even offering to drop me off and pick me up from my office, located a couple of miles away.Being new to the area, it was refreshing a service center I felt I could trust in just my first try. Without a doubt, these guys will have my service for as long as Im around.

Comment: My husband and I have taken our cars to many places in the last few years, but nothing compared to the customer service at Budget Brakes. We took our van in for an inspection and we were told what needed to be done, nothing more. We appreciated the honesty and integrity of the people who work there. We will continue to take our cars here and recommend Budget Brakes to family and friends!

Comment: I have tried many auto care places throughout Metro Detroit and I feel Budget Brakes is hands down the best Ive dealt with. Staff is friendly, knowledgeable and competent. Their prices are reasonable and the workmanship has been solid. I live a considerable distance from Budget and I pass about a half dozen care care places on the way there, but it is worth the trip to go to Budget.

Comment: Wow- what customer service! I could not leave work to use the loaner vehicle that was offered, so Matthew PICKED UP and RETURNED my truck at my job, a mile away. Budget Brakes Livonia delivers honest, skilled service at an excellent price. Chris, the manager reminded me that they are a full service repair shop, so I know Ill be back. Oh, and I loved the guarantee that came with my brakes/rotors!

Comment: I read the reviews and had to see for myself. After a day of hearing my brakes grinding I decided to give BB&S a call. Its was late in the day so I didnt expect much. Chris answered the phone with a welcoming voice and began answering my questions. He informed me that no matter the drop off time or the amount of time it took to fix my vehicle I would be taken care of. Chris told me that they had a loaner car I could use, and of course I was skeptical. I pulled up early the next morning, car squealing and all. The staff there were all smiling and seemed to be in a lively mood. After the test drive and diagnostic Chris gave me the skinny on what was happening with my van. He told me what I wanted to hear (what and how much it would take to get me back on the road) and what I didnt (what it would cost to make my van safe). He explained the condition of my van and the working parts. He wrote up a few packages and then we went from there. I got a nice out the door deal for some SERIOUS front end work! I wasnt at the shop for more than 10 minutes and I was out with the loaner car. Which was clean and hassle free to take and drop off! All that work and I had my van back before rush hour! HELL OF A JOB GUYS! Need anything, go see BB&S 1st!!!

Comment: We took my sons van in for repairs. We were treated courteously and promptly. All repairs were discussed up front. Weve been using a chain-type repair shop and have just not been happy with the quality of service there. Actually if the other place had done its job correctly some repairs may have been avoided. At any rate, weve been looking for a new shop. I think weve found it!

Comment: This company was very efficient and there were no surprises. They let me know up front for a diagnostic charge, and they were very quick in calling me to let me know what the issue was and about how much it would cost. They had my cars busted AC fixed up and ready to go in one day. And if you call ahead they will willingly lend you a loaner car.

Comment: A family owned business with great guys who are proud of what they do, and committed to excellent customer service! When I got my oil changed they were quick, took good care of my car and returned ready to go - with it washed! I am grateful for their commitment to serving the customer and doing an honest, trustworthy job.
