Long time review coming, been using Ken and his team for work related vehicles for at least 3 years. Took my personal car and he was able to help right away. His prices are very reasonable and usually way lower than going to any dealership. Honest and productive mechanics are hard to find, go to him first before going somewhere else.

Three other mechanics could not figure out the issue with my car -even telling me only the dealer could fix what is likely a computer module problem.Then, I heard about Mannheim Auto & Brakes. The owner, Ken, was confident he could find the true problem. Jeff, one of the mechanics, was equally confident they could repair it. And they did -in record time and under budget. WOW, guys. The vehicle runs perfectly again. Thank you for your honesty and ability to know your craft and how to do the job right.Service: Electrical repair

Ken is a very knowledgeable and fair mechanic. I like the fact that I know I m getting what my car needs and nothing more. Mechanics have reputations for trying to sell you more than you need, but I have never found that to be true at this location. I highly recommend Mannheim Automotive and Brakes.

I found Ken on Google and figured I would try him. I can only say I'm glad I did. He is the nicest and smartest mechanic I've dealt with in a while. He was able to fix my sonata with an oil issue and now he has fixed my daughter Ford remote issue that 3 other mechanic could not. I will and would recommend him to everyone.

My check engine light turned on, so I brought my car to this shop to get checked. Ken was super friendly and he was able to quickly run diagnostics on my vehicle.We were able to determine what needed to get fixed and we discussed repair priorities as well as possible payment plans.My family and friends had recommended this shop to me, and I'm glad that they did.If you have any automobile issues of any kind, I would recommend that you bring your vehicle to this shop.I will be returning to this shop for future car repairs.Service: Auto engine diagnostic

Hey I was so impressed with what they did for me and as to how they were able to get it done for me in no time. Ken is a great guy, after everything was done, he gave me a discount. I know they are very honest people and I believe they don't lie to their customers so they can charge you an arm and a leg, I really like what they did for me n now I have my aircondition woking like new thanks to Ken and his team. Hey they're very friendly and respectful too.

Excellent service! We were on a road trip and had an issue come up with our car that needed immediate attention. We googled someplace close to us and stopped here. So glad that we did! The guys were courteous, helpful, honest, and quick-they had our car up in the shop within about 2 minutes of us coming in! The problem was solved and we were safe to drive again. Thanks for the great service and honest assessment!

These guys are amazing! I've been dealing with them for years and they've always been nothing but honest. They're not out to gain a buck off you. They do good honest business. It's a family owned business, which I appreciate even more. I can see Kenny for anything and I know without a doubt I'll get the best answer. Thanks guys!

I've had my air-condition checked and added freon, he told me to return if something is wrong for the next few days, but so far its my 2nd day and its quite ok.... good service. I'll be recommending this shop and now I know a place to go if I've had problem with my car.This is a followup on my comment, its been a month now and my car air condition stay as good like a brand new. SURELY I WILL BE BACK IN THE FUTURE... Thank you.

Great people to do business with. Quality work at fair price. They treat you like a person, not like a number walking in to get service on your vehicle. Thank you Ken and team members.

The only place to go for any auto work needed on your vehicle. They do only what needs too be done. They tell you what needs to be done at a later date and what to watch for. Very reasonable with pricing.
