What Drivers are Saying
Rachel Ralston
This shop 100% lives up to its name! Miles and his crew were honest, transparent, and made sure the job got done right, in a timely manner, and at a very fair price. As a woman, it means the world to me to have found a mechanic I can trust. I couldn't be happier with the service I received at the Honest-1 Auto Care in Aurora!
Paul Ingram
This was my third experience going to Honest 1 Auto Care. Once again it was a very great experience and I plan on coming back again. I was not disappointed once again. Each associate listen to me and the work was completed as communicated and in a timely manner. This team is great! Shout out to the entire team and staff, but a huge shout out to Devan. There customer service is “Really Honestly #1…” 👍 No regrets! 5+ STARS!

5/5 Stars — Outstanding service! Brought my car in for brake and rotor replacement, and the team had it fixed up and running smoothly in no time. Fair pricing, honest communication, and top-notch work. Highly recommend and will definitely be coming back!

Scott Jensen was really attentive and helpful throughout this whole process. My fiancée's car crapped out and we luckily found Honest-1. They helped us figure out what was needed and helped us figure out payments and everything I definitely recommend them.

Tony has recently worked on all 3 of my vehicles and did a fantastic job! He was able to get everything fixed really quickly too! He is a very professional young man who loves what he does, and it shows! All of their work has guarantees, which is almost unheard of anymore! Justin is his manager and he's also a fantastic manager to their customers, making everyone feel seen and heard.
Shirley Powell
All the personnel are professional and friendly. As far as I know, the issue has been fixed. Usually I take my car elsewhere because your prices are higher than other places and being a senior I have to go with the cheapest price. This time though your alignment was cheaper. Matt always gives me a discount so I and appreciate that. My car is really old so having a warranty isn’t as important because I never know when the engine or transmission will go out…original on both.
Brake services 101
Your brakes work like a trio: you (the operator), hydraulic pressure, and friction. No matter your car or truck, all brake systems use and create friction to slow you down.
Signs you need brake services
Like a pair of favorite shoes, brakes wear down over time. Regular fluid flushes and periodic brake services are essential to avoiding a full brake replacement. Aside from a warning light turning on, here are some tell-tale signs you may need a brake repair:
- Vibration or shaking when you brake
- Grinding or high-pitch squealing noises
- A low or fading brake pedal
- Your car pulls to one side when you brake
- Leaking brake fluid (yellow or honey-colored)
Schedule your next brake repair or replacement with Honest1 for our Roadworthy Guarantee®.
What to expect while we inspect your brake system
During each of our brake services, our Roadworthy® technicians test drive your car, check the brake fluid, and flush the system of any contaminants if needed. We’ll also check for any signs a brake replacement or repair is in order. Signs like:
- Issues in the brake lines and hoses
- Mysterious leaks
- Emergency brake performance
- Brake pad issues
Avoiding brake repairs
Regular brake inspection is the best way to prevent unwanted squeals and dangerous driving. Though it depends on driving habits, terrain, and parts quality, brake pads generally last between 30,000 and 70,000 miles (we know, that's a big a range).
- Consult your owner's manual for a more accurate mileage range
- Make a note on your calendar
- Come in earlier if you experience any of the signs and symptoms above
