Ive always liked coming here as the staff as extremely nice and I think they do a thorough job. The only reason Im not leaving more stars is because I wasnt aware of the total repair cost before my car was finished. I had a conversation with a service member on Friday and agreed to have the repairs done by Monday afternoon. I wasnt quoted the cost of service and forgot to ask, and theyre closed on weekends, so I was going to call back Monday to ask about the cost. I received a call Monday morning that the car was finished. I understand parts and labor are expensive but I might have held off on some things if I knew the total price. Very stressful.

Jay was really supportive and kind! Everyone I interacted with too was transparent and helpful. I just went in for a brake fluid exchange and the price was affordable in comparison to other places I’ve called and of course the dealership. Thank you!

(Translated by Google) It has been an excellent experience, although the repair of the car could not be resolved, but I left with the satisfaction of the attention they offered me and the treatment as well, I know that they did the best that was in their hands and within their reach, the next car I would put it back in their hands so that they can do their respective maintenance, good and honest workshops and mechanics are not many, that is why I recommend them with complete confidence to everyone who is looking for and needs good service and repair to their car. Thank you very much… 🫡💯🙏 (Original) Ha sido una excelente esperiencia, aunque no se pudo solucionar el arreglo del carro, pero me fui con la satisfacción de la atención que me ofrecieron y el trato también, sé que hicieron lo mejor que estaba en sus manos y a su alcance, el próximo carro lo volvería a poner en sus manos para que les hagan sus respectivos mantenimientos, talleres y mecánicos buenos y honestos no abundan muchos, por eso se los recomiendo con entera confianza a todo el que busque y necesite de un buen servicio y arreglo a su carro. Muchas gracias… 🫡💯🙏

I called John's automotive to see what I should do with my car since a piece of metal in the road punctured my gas tank and I had to have a towed. They told me to have it towed there to check it out. They were so efficient and nice I was blown away by the experience. I never been to John's before, only my husband has and he highly recommends them as well. John's automotive will be the only place I take my car to, it was a pleasure to find a efficient honest auto repair shop.

Came in for an oil change and to check a new noise. They were fast, friendly, and fare. As a long time customer, they know my car and fix small problems they find as a courtesy.

Thank you so much for the kind words, Joe! It’s been our pleasure working on your Subaru over the last four years at John’s Automotive Care. We truly appreciate your continued trust in our team, and we look forward to many more years of keeping your car in great shape. See you next time, and thanks again for trusting us!

Easy to set up an appointment with John’s Automotive care. My AC wasn’t working. Drop off my car in the morning and they offered a shuttle back home and for pick up. They were thorough and suggested other maintenance recommendations. My car was ready for pick up on that same day. Now my AC works and I am a happy customer.

Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re so glad to hear that our team could fix your turn signal issue quickly and affordably. Providing convenient services, like our courtesy shuttle, is just one of the ways we aim to make car care as stress-free as possible. We truly appreciate your trust and look forward to being your go-to shop for all your future automotive needs!
