Been going to this shop for a decade for any and all car problems I have. Eric is best of the best and is honest with his prices, as well as friendly for those who don't know much about cars. I recommend to anyone who fears they are getting improper treatment for their vehicle and who are looking for a new mechanic to care for their car. 5 STARS since 2016!

Eric is your personal auto service professional. So nice to speak directly to the person who is working on your car. Eric did great work on my car, and nothing more than it needed. Car repairs aren’t cheap, but Eric’s prices were fair and reasonable. I’ll be back for any future auto service. Highly Recommend.

Brett Kelleher

Plainfield, IL

Can't say enough nice things about Eric and My Brother's Mechanic. I had a check engine light issue that I brought in for him to take a look at, he inspected my vehicle and gave me the honest answer about what is going on. Did not charge me and gave me advice on how to handle a warranty issue from another mechanic. Will definitely be taking my vehicle back to him in the future, 100% recommend.

Michael Ortman

Plainfield, IL

They are the best! I have been bringing my kids cars here for years and don’t go anywhere else. They are very friendly and always share a fair price along with appropriate repair recommendations.

Roman Ortega Jr

Plainfield, IL

I brought my car here half because i was worried something was wrong with it, half because I needed a check up for it. Eric, the guy who took a look at it was good to me, told me everything looked fine. When I asked how much I owe him he said it's on the house and I didn't have to pay anything for a full inspection. I don't know if the free inspection is just for the first time or in general, but he's got my buisness if I ever need a mechanic.

Eric set me up with a free inspection on my 10 year old vehicle. Soon after I dropped it off he gave me a call and gave me the honest truth about the condition of my vehicle. He could have easily sold me parts and services but he explained very thoroughly the possibility of this vehicle being a moneypit. I appreciate the honesty and usual information provided. Highly recommend if you'd like an honest mechanic.

I am so glad we found Eric and his four legged office manager! I didn't catch her name but she was a treat to hang out with while our car got diagnosed. It's not often I'm compelled to write a review but this is one of those rare occasions when you know you've stumbled on to a great place with a great owner. He clearly knows what he's doing and will fix your car the right way without selling you services that you do not need. He is straightforward, knowledgeable and honest - all qualities not often found today. I'm so glad we found this place!

Plainfield, IL

Peace of mind is a priceless thing, and so is a good-hearted and honest mechanic - which is exactly what you will get with Brother’s! My husband brought in my car the other day for a noise we were hearing. After a test drive and full safety inspection, Eric let us know that everything looked good and the noise is nothing to worry about. He did not charge us for this service which was appreciated more than words! We will definitely be continuing to come to Brother’s moving forward. Thank you, Eric!

I had the pleasure of working with Eric today, and I can confidently say he is an exceptionally honest mechanic. He provided a complimentary diagnosis for my car, saving me both time and money. Most importantly, he offered me straightforward feedback that I truly appreciate. In today's world, finding a honest mechanic is a true rarity, and I feel fortunate to have discovered Eric!

Eric was amazing to work with. My M3 had a hard to diagnose clunk and he diagnosed it for free and refused to take a payment. Honest mechanics in this day of age are rare and I would go back again.

My Brother's Mechanic is, without a doubt, the best and most trustworthy auto shop in the area. I always know that the work is quality and the price fair!

Alex Savitt

Plainfield, IL

I have been taking my vehicles to Eric and Robert for the past few years. They are honest and communicative I highly recommend My Brother’s Mechanic for all your vehicle needs

Kristie Vogel

Plainfield, IL

You MUST come here. I've dealt with mechanics for 25yrs, my father was one, and these guys are the highest quality and most reliable as they come. Their best quality is their honesty. They never try to sell you something that isn't required, give you honest assessments, and do work that rivals - if not better - than dealership mechanics. They provide quality work and recommend to buy quality parts vs. going the "cheap" route bc they know it will only mean more troubles down the road. I can't say enough good things about them. I wish there were more people like them. If I could give them 10 stars, I would.

Marcin Bugajski

Plainfield, IL

I’ve been trusting My Brother’s Mechanic with my car since 2015 (possibly even longer), and they’ve consistently provided exceptional service. My car is now turning 17, and it’s still running like a dream thanks to their expert care. They are, without a doubt, the most trustworthy, down-to-earth, and reasonably priced mechanics I’ve worked with. What I appreciate most is that I never feel like I’m being upsold on unnecessary services—everything they do is genuinely needed. I can’t recommend them enough. 10/10, highly recommended!

Mike Sharkey

Plainfield, IL

Eric is the most honest mechanic, he is the only place where I trust my family's vehicles. Quick update on what is happening with the car, he’s up front on what he recommends , he treats us like family

Alex Sanchez

Plainfield, IL

Super nice company!! I definitely recommend bringing your car here, I’ve had lots of troubles with other mechanics in the area but these guys are seriously the best, the best prices and the most helpful. They were so honest with what was wrong with my car. Will definitely return in the future!

Linda Smith

Plainfield, IL

Always good and honest work. Doesn’t give you the run around or bs with you. Tells you if you should just call it a loss instead of wasting pointless money. I’ve brought a few cars here and there will be more to come!

James Poeppelmeier

My Brother's Mechanic is friendly, fair, reasonable, and honest. They took the time to explain the issues with my vehicles, options, and cost. There wasn't any pressure or upsell. I highly recommend them for your vehicle's mechanical or maintenance needs!

Scott Mayerhofer

Plainfield, IL

I cannot speak highly enough about the My Brother’s Mechanic. Not only are they incredibly skilled at what they do, but they always go above and beyond to help me with any issues I have with any of my cars. They are honest, trustworthy, and never try to nickel and dime me for every little thing. Unlike other mechanics who seem to want to drain you dry for everything and have another issue arise like a week or a month later. My Brother's Mechanics genuinely cares about their customers and will do whatever they can to help. Their honesty is the reason why I continue to go back to them for all of my car maintenance and repair needs. If anyone is looking for true, honest mechanics, then I highly recommend going to My Brother's Mechanics. I wouldn't trust my car with anyone else. The quality of their work and the peace of mind they provide is well worth the drive. I am grateful to have such wonderful and reliable mechanics in my corner.

Diana Rivera

Plainfield, IL

We've been going to Eric/Robert since moving to area from Virginia back in 2019. They're the most trustworthy and capable mechanics we've had the pleasure of working with. My 2010 Jeep Wrangler finally had its last service call this past month. They were very forthright in stating the facts, and that likely a replacement was a better route. It hurt giving this vehicle up, but that just shows how honorable these guys are.

Chris Landis

Plainfield, IL

I highly recommend My Brother’s Mechanic! They are super honest and fair. They kept the lines of communication open as they were working on my vehicle. I am 100% pleased with their work. Thank you!

I have taken several vehicles to My Brothers recently. Both for necessary repairs and for a diagnostic checkup on a newly acquired vehicle. I don't usually leave reviews for products or services but this place really deserves a positive review. The guys are friendly and personable. The are always able to look at my vehicles within a day when I call. They are very thorough, their pricing is very fair and they keep you updated on the status of the vehicle. Most importantly, they get the job completed in a timely manner the first time. There isn't enough space here to post all the good things to say about them. They are my absolute first call when I need work on my car. I haven't trusted a auto repair shop in a long time. Finally, a place I trust and can depend on. Thanks guys. Chris

My dad (Don) and I have been a customer of My Brothers Mechanic for years. Eric is a very knowledgeable mechanic. You can 100% depend on receiving an honest evaluation, solid workmanship, and quality parts for all of your repairs. My Brothers Mechanic is a professional shop that you can depend on. We are customers for life! Thank you so much Eric!

Cassie Berlin

I bring several vehicles here regularly for their maintenance needs. From high end luxury, to my muscle car to my kids' cars with 130k and 167k miles. My cars and I are treated better here than at any other shop I've ever been too...and I've been to many in my near half century of life. Great shop, great people, complete satisfaction. Don't hesitate to bring your vehicle here!

Good locally owned mechanic shop that does repairs in a timely and cost efficient manner. Would use them again if I had a repair in the future.

Eric is such a blessing. He’s a honest mechanic and goes far and beyond to find the problem with your car. He paid it forward to me today and I’m definitely going to return the favor. Good people and a great mechanic is hard to come by he definitely will get the job done.

MBM is the only auto repair business I've ever experienced that will always give you an educated, honest, transparent, and timely diagnosis of whatever issue(s) your vehicle is experiencing. No need to ever 2nd guess whether the professional recommendation(s) you get from MBM are accurate and given with the customers best interest in mind. It's so refreshing to know auto repair shops like MBM still exist in today's auto service industry where the customer is often taken advantage of due to a lack of knowledge / experience / awareness, unnecessary sales pressure, misinformation, misdiagnosis, false sense of urgency, etc. I'm so grateful to know that I can take my personal vehicle(s) to MBM whenever I need a safety or fluid leak inspection and/or a thorough diagnosis of an issue. Eric is an incredible ASE certified mechanic who not only has the knowledge and experience you desire in an auto mechanic, but he also has the heart of a teacher to help you understand each issue and what specifically needs to be done to resolve each one. Eric does an amazing job of sharing the right amount of post-inspection info so that you are empowered to make the right decision for your vehicle and current financial situation. MBM is an awesome, two-brother team who is always ready to meet their customer's needs.

Plainfield, IL

Great place to take your car! Better than any mechanic I've taken my car to so far! They offer free safety checks and will give you an in depth report on your car. The thing I love is how dedicated they are and how they take their time with your car to ensure that you are in good hands!
