Angela Mitchell
I made an appointment through there website and dropped off my car. I was greeted with very friendly staff. I finished my errands and picked up my car 2 hours after drop off and it was ready. They gave me a read out of what they fixed. I would have to say that the whole team is fast and efficient along with friendly.

The name speaks for itself self, the honest one! We had our work van being “worked” at another shop behind theres. The shop ended up closing due to a sheriff’s notice and the honest one help us get our van back in order! They walked over to test the battery for free and took care of it from there. AMAZING SERVICE!

All of the employees at Honest One are friendly and professional. They have helped me successfully maintain my Honda CRV for nine years. I highly recommend anyone wanting a reputable car maintenance establishment to check in with these fine folks.

I was looking to get my car a 60,000 service and I asked a service employee at a local Hyundai dealership. He told me to go to honest 1 in west Bloomington and save a good deal of money. He was right. I saved over $100 and I was very impressed with how they communicated what was going to be done and why. I give them 5 stars and my future business.
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
