I’ve had a number of BMWs in my life, and Matt and his crew took great care of Charlie! They did great work at a fair and reasonable price. They went above and beyond!

I did! I am blessed. I thought my car was doomed and heading for the junk yard. Very quickly after my car was" towed" in, Matt called and had found the major problem. Also found a few other problems and called to let me know and ask if I'd like to go further and fix it. Woo Hoo I'm so excited that all this work cost me less than I'd ever expected. AND THE CAR RUNS BETTER THAN THE DAY I BOUGHT IT! Thanks Matt! I WILL be back for ALL future work. read less

Matt went out of his way to thoroughly inspect our Jeep and showed me everything he did. His staff was incredibly friendly to my two boys and showed a lot of respect for the community they serve. If you want an auto shop you can trust, this is the place...all the professionalism + they actually know what they're doing (and do it extremely well). You can tell they love their work...obviously would hire them again. read less

You listen to friends, you read reviews, take a deep breath and jump on in. We've been to Brum's a few times for oil changes and minor repairs and we're glad we did.We have found Brum's to be reliable, honest, timely, and reasonable. They have not tried to up sell anything, but at the same time informed me when (for example) I needed new rear tires. He asked where I had the front done and agreed they did good work. They are always pleasant and professional.I recommend Brum's very highly and will not go someplace else if Brum's can do the work! read less

The brakes on my Mazda 3 were making a clicking sound that a few different mechanics, including the dealership, couldn't fix, but Matt at Brum's did. It turns out the pads had been installed incorrectly by the dealership. Ever since then, I've been taking my cars to Brum's for regular service and repairs. Another example where Matt's troubleshooting skills were much appreciated was when I had an intermittent problem with the AC in my car. I appreciated the fact that he didn't simply replace the entire AC system, compressor, etc. Again, Matt found and fixed the actual problem. In addition to their technical abilities, I find Matt and the staff to be very friendly and always willing to explain what my cars need with a quote. I highly recommend Brum's! read less

Honest and straightforward quotes. Only the work I needed done was taken care of. Suggestions for future work was discussed in a practical manner with no up selling. The $75 inspection fee is well worth it especially with an older car that hasn't seen much maintenance work. We pin pointed what really needed to be replaced/repaired together. My car with over 200k miles runs and drives like new again! Did I mention the owner has a degree in mechanical engineering? Bonus! Not your typical shop. read less

They did four things, two of which were major. I am very pleased with them. If your looking for someone to solve the problems, stop in and you'll be happy you did. Thank you Brums. read less

Not only did they return my request for a service quote quickly but continued with the very best customer service from the time I dropped off my car to when I picked it up. They exceeded my expectations with the repair and followed up with a phone call a few days after I'd gotten my car back to make sure everything was satisfactory. I would highly recommend Brum's Ultimate Auto Reapir. Thank you for a wonderful experience. Christal Lanagan read less

We were on vacation in the area and figured I'd utilize the time to get new brakes, rotors and tires on my car. I searched for auto repair places locally and while Brum's wasn't the closest, the reviews were too good to not give them a shot. This is the first review I've written on Yelp and there's a reason for that - quality work at an honest price and not trying to complete work that's not needed or unnecessarily upsell you. The owner, Matt Brum, helped me and couldn't have been nicer. read less

The car is used for our early 20s kids to drive around in and we want it to be reliable and safe. Brums has done an excellent job on any repairs that the car has needed and even follows up with a phone call after the repair to make sure that everything is ok with the vehicle. They also road test the car after repairs unlike other shops that do not take the time to do this. The mechanics at Brums are courteous and easy to work with. You can’t go wrong taking your vehicle to Brums. read less

Brought my car in because I was having issues with my throttle body. He was nice enough to try cleaning it first to save me money and see if that was the problem instead of replacing it right away. When cleaning it didn't fix it, he ordered the part right away and put me down as an emergency fix to get me back up and running asap. Fixed it as soon as part was delivered. Also replaced my spark plugs and air filter and a VERY reasonable price. Very happy with their fast and friendly service. Will definitely return whenever I have an issue with my car.

I did not like taking my BMW to the dealer for repairs simply because the cost was too high. Many local shops did not even want to touch my car. I was referred to Brum's by a colleague of mine.

Low and behold, my car was fixed at a reasonable price and returned in a short time. I now bring all my vehicles there. This is a great shop. Thanks Matt! read less
