Evan Breau – Automotive Technician

Evan Breau has been with O’Town Auto since 2016. Evan is a car guy, and always has been. He’s been working on cars, light trucks, and SUVs pretty much since he could hold a wrench. He’s a huge Subaru fan, and he really caught the automotive-service-and-repair bug when he got his first one back in the day.

He built the motor for it, fell in love with doing so, and then, with natural aptitude and keen curiosity, he started modding it, including doing his own tuning, exhaust repairs and modifications. Having the courage to modify his own engines allowed him to learn insights into how engines work, and how it all relates across the board: from steering, suspension, drivability, fuel systems, exhaust, and all the rest. In short, this guy loves cars, all cars foreign and domestic. So, if you looking for honest, quality auto repair from an experienced mechanic in the Oromocto, NB area: who else would you want working on your car, truck, or SUV?

In addition to his passion and years in the trade, Evan is Red Seal Automotive Service Technician certified, meaning he has put in the time and training to learn his profession, and done enough practice and study as well as gaining field experience to complete that program and get past the mountain of a test required to achieve the honor of that certification.

Brody Anderson – Automotive Service Technician

Brody Anderson has been with O’Town Auto since 2020. He, like so many of our crew, is a dyed-in-the-wool automotive enthusiast, foreign and domestic. As a child, he was already learning to work on small engines, unable to resist the urge to learn about and master how machines work. That never stopped all the way through high school, where he took every automotive class there and ultimately went on to become qualified after graduation.

Here at O’Town Automotive, Brody handles a variety of automotive service and repair work, including:

• • Brakes – brake jobs and brake service and repair (brake fluid service, master cylinder, wheel cylinder and more)
• • Oil change service – quick oil changes, oil filter replacement, oil leak detection, fluid replacement
• • Tires – changing tires, new tires, replacement tires, tire repair, flat tire repair, tire patch, low tire, snow tires, winter tires, high performance tires, 4x4 tires, all season tires, mud tires, tire balance, wheel balance, wheels and rims.

If you’re in the Oromocto area and have an issue with your car; if you think you need new tires; if you’ve got a vibration or a brake noise; or if you’re simply due for your regular oil change, Brody can take care of that auto service work for you.

After work, Brody is still working on cars, by the way. He is a car enthusiast through and through, working on cars during the evenings and weekends, endlessly studying and learning new techniques. He’s among the many who have discovered the great resource of YouTube to learn the odd jobs and rare techniques, which allows him great insights into providing quality service and auto repair for you and your family. Speaking of which, Brody’s got a brother, two twin-sisters, and a girlfriend to spend time with when he’s not under the hood having fun.
