Great Brakes

At Great Brakes Inc., we have been dedicated to providing top-notch auto repair services for over 35 years. Our journey began when Mr. Worku Moges acquired the company in 1998, and since then, we have been consistently delivering the best service at the best rates.

Our commitment to customer satisfaction is at the heart of our operations. We understand that our customers may feel at a disadvantage when dealing with auto repair shops, as there are many that take advantage of people. However, we strive to do the opposite. We go out of our way to explain and show you any repair work that needs to be done. If a repair is authorized by you, you will see the old parts and the new work completed, all at the most reasonable price.

We are a full-service repair shop that specializes in import and domestic cars, ranging from seasonal tire changes to engine changes, with a special emphasis on brakes. Our central location in Minneapolis, just three blocks west of Hwy 280 on University Avenue, makes us easily accessible for all our customers.

Our team is dedicated to providing the highest quality service, and we believe in treating our customers with a smile and providing them with the best service at the best rate within our power. Whether the job is big or small, we handle each with the same level of competence. An honest day's work for an honest day's pay is our motto.

Our Work

When you bring your car to us, we take the time to understand your problem and quickly locate the issue. We recommend a solution, give you an estimate for repair time and cost, take your vehicle apart, put the right parts on your vehicle, bill you, and off you go! We strive to make the process as smooth and hassle-free as possible, ensuring that you are completely satisfied with our services.
