Great experience. I cannot tell you enough how appreciative I was for the work performed to correct my check engine light. It turned out to be an erroneous code and they said if It returns I can come back for further diagnosis. I also had a small coolant leak and was told to add some bg cooling system sealer. I am familiar with bg so I gave it a try. So far so good.You really dont know the value of a good mechanic until you need one.They are professional, to the point, and honest with the work performed. When the owner takes time to take a peek at your car and is honest about the repairs needed, it helps tremendouslyππ
Johns Auto Care discovered and rectified a longstanding issue with my vehicle that three other shops failed to do. Furthermore, the service was immensely courteous, professional, and brisk.
Great Service. John cares about his clients. They go the extra mile just to make you smile.
Went here to have them run general diagnostics on my car. They did, and they then explained everything to me and told me what needed to be attended to immediately and what could wait. I appreciated that. There were a few things that were odd to me though.At first, they wanted to charge me $500 to change my car battery, which seemed quite steep. I called them and told them that it seemed steep, and then they told me it was a mistake and that it would actually cost $300. Hmm, weird. Still seemed high, so I decided against it as well as any other services.When I went to pick up my car, I noticed that my stereo no longer had power going to it. Also weird. I went in and asked them to look at it, which they did. The guy who looked at it came back and was basically laughing it off and insinuating that the stereo had actually been broken when I brought it in and I had just not noticed. This was false. I can remember the song I was listening to as I parked my car there, actually. They then told me that they basically couldnt do anything about the stereo, so I left.Im not generally one to leave angry reviews about a place (in fact Ive never done it before), but Im pretty dissatisfied with my experience here, particularly with the fact that my stereo worked fine when I brought my car in and was no longer functioning at all when I picked the car up. Its not really a cheap thing to go and get fixed myself, so Im not too happy about it. Make of this what you will, but that was my experience.
After having some undesirable service elsewhere I decided to try out Johns Auto Care in Boulder. These guys are great! Fast friendly and very professional! I mainly worked with Robert but I also got a chance to visit with the owner John. I highly recommend Johns Auto care in Boulder. They really do care! Thanks guys! Iβll be back.
Only wish that I could give more stars. Best Garage I have EVER worked with! They are the BEST! Never treated me as a woman, never took advantage of me not knowing about cars. Always tried to save me money. I would still be using them if I didnt live in Aurora now.
Took my 08 highlander in for a checkup; John recommended a trans fluid change. my car shifts smoother, and less often. feels much better. thanks
John & staff were super friendly in taking care of my daughters first oil service in Boulder. She will continue to use them in future. Thank you again, John, for being so friendly & professional.
I really recommend you take your car to see these guys. When my transmission was out John drove in the car with me to help understand the issue and they where really detail oriented and honest. I totally trusted my car here. Every one was really nice and helpful and always got back to me or picked up if I called. 5/5 take your car here.
This is a wonderful auto shop that is both professional and skilled. They didnt try to upsell me on extra services or tell me I needed things without actually inspecting like a Ford dealer in Longmont did. This is going to be my go to auto shop!
Johns Auto Care continues to be the best!Great work, stellar service, friendly culture, legitimate pricing, and timeliness. This is my third vehicle I have had serviced throughout the years and they make it easy to be loyal to them!Highly recommend. 5 Stars!
I took my car in to have the brakes looked at and was quoted a price two times more expensive than the three other local independent repair shops I called. I wouldnt complain if it were slightly more expensive and the parts were higher quality, but a difference of over $400 is hard to legitimately explain. I appreciate the free multi-point inspection though.
Highly recommend! Have taken two cars here and completely trust them. At a point where I needed to repair a few things at, they took the time to explain what each part did for the car, how it would effect the safety and/or drive, and even which thinks I could push to the next month while I reset my budget. Happy to have been referred to them a few years back.
First time I have ever left a mechanic with a smile on my face. They were great. They ran a complete diagnostic, told me what repairs could wait, which ones I had to do now and which ones I never have to get done. They gave me great prices and they actually did some repairs that they didnt charge me for. Very honest and straightforward. I highly recommend taking your car here.
I have been going to Johns for about 6 months now, they are amazing. Junior is incredibly friendly and always eager to chat. The way he explains the issues with my car, the options, and his recommendations makes me feel like I am speaking with a good friend. They never recommend work that doesnt need to be done, and will let you know which repairs are urgent and which can wait a little longer. Best mechanic in Boulder in my experience!
Ive never written a Google review but I felt it was necessary this time. Ive been to several mechanics in Boulder, both commercial and mom and pop shops, and Johns Auto Care has been the absolute best! I called Johns Auto Care one afternoon and they were able to see me first thing the next morning.Everyone I met was extremely friendly and ridiculously helpful. Junior was very courteous, knowledgeable, and honest about the work I needed to get done.The shuttle service (which I believe most places should have) is a great upside, so I can drop off my car and still handle my other errands.The positive reviews here are no exaggeration to the exceptional service provided at Johns Auto Care. I would HIGHLY recommend.
John is a really nice guy and a great businessman. Gave me straight answers for my issue and an estimate consistent with other shops. Took the time to explain the situation and show me his findings. Will do business with him again!
If you are looking for an honest, friendly mechanic, look no further. Since moving back to Colorado, I have been to a few mechanics. One shop gave me an estimate of $2,230 for major repairs. I took it John, and they had a very different assessment. I did not need any major repairs, just a minor repair that cost me $87.46. I will never go to any other mechanic again. Thank you John, Junior, Allison, and staff!!
Nightmare experience. Repai quote with clutch replacement has wreaked a βcertified βmechanic inability to provide skilled craftsman repair to destroy my engine repairs correctly.
I have had very good luck with them. They are honest and quick. I would strongly recommend them.
I have been taking my Subaru cars to Johns Auto for over a decade and I highly recommend them. It is very reassuring to feel like a good friend is working on my car. I totally trust John and know that he has my best interest at heart. My mother started taking her Saab to Johns Auto three years ago and she has been equally thrilled. No other auto repair shop has ever come close to earning my trust like Johns Auto!
Brought my car in after the check engine light came on following an oil change. Johns diagnosed a faulty sensor promptly and got it fixed before I left the office that same day. They made what would normally be a painful experience significantly less so and I cant recommend them highly enough. Thanks guys!
Great experience all around, knowledgeable staff and do things right the first time.
I came here after the splash shield on my Prius cracked from driving through deep snow and was told the exact 3 parts that I needed to get. I ordered those 3 parts and they put on 2 of those parts telling me they couldnβt find a place for the 3rd part (beginning of my suspicions). About 2 weeks later the splash shield on the highway came off damaging other parts underneath the car. The previous replacement was after 5 years of driving through snow and mountains and this happened after 2 weeks of driving through urban streets with one light snow. I came back telling them that they just have not installed it properly and one of the main mechanics just got angry at me from the moment we started talking, denied everything, and interrupted me every time I tried talking. All in all, I lost about $200 not including the new damage from that large piece coming out on the highway and damaging other areas under the car (at a minimum $300). Dishonest and not willing to admit that some of their mechanics basically screwed up.Updates to refute this dishonest man trying to save face: the βrepairβ was originally done on the 15th and I came back on the 5th (so 3 weeks) and while I drive for Uber/Lyft on the side, Iβm a full time student and didnβt put close to 4K miles on my car in that time (not that that would be an excuse in any case for a piece coming off). I donβt keep track but a liberal estimate is that at most I drove 2KNext point- the piece came off before the major snow stormsβ I called to come in but was told you wouldnβt have any time until the following week which is when I did come after the major snow and so yes the car was packed with ice underneath as happens w so many cars in Colorado. And Iβve been backing off curbs for 5 years and 155K so it doesnβt make sense that a brand new piece that was installed properly would fly off in a few weeks.Next and perhaps most importantly- the body work and damage to the front fascia which you are talking about IS the additional damage. That whole front bumper was basically perfect prior to that piece flying off.Lastly, I find your apology disingenuous considering how loud and disrespectful you were towards me never even letting me talk. Please apologize for that. That would be genuine.
I love the way they text you a full layout of the inspection and notes directly from the mechanic. The shuttle service is awesome and everyone was so nice. Was happy to pay my bill for an excellent experience.
Everyone here is nice. I get my oil changed here and have been pretty happy with that.
Ive been using Johns to service my Land Cruiser for the last 5 years. Their service team is super friendly and no pressure. They do excellent work and get the job done quick.
Very happy with Johns. Always seem to be very honest and reliable. Ill definitely be back!
I have been to Johns Auto twice now and have loved my experience both times. They are prompt, respectful and honest. I had a lot of work done and it was well explained and the time was taken to make sure that I had my car back when I needed it. I have been to other auto shops in Boulder, and I would never go back to them after being at Johns auto. You wont regret the money spent here, they take good care of you.
Johns Auto is the only place I trust my car. There have been times I would call them up and ask a question about my car and they would tell me if it was something I could do myself or if I needed to bring it in. They are really reasonable with pricing and will always back up their labor. Ive been going to them for about eight years and am impressed every time with their service. I recommend them all the time to anyone who needs a great auto mechanic.
I had Johns service my 05 Dodge Caravan before I moved out east. They finished the service in a timely manner and were nice the entire time. My van has been great, but if I need service Im going be wishing I lived in Boulder again.
I had my 4Runner oil changed here. It was done quickly for a reasonable price, and the staff was very friendly, professional, and helpful.
I brought my car in for a routine oil change--everyone was very friendly and helpful and even explained in more detail than I usually get what needed replacing on my car and when so I can plan ahead. They even had a much nicer waiting area than most places Ive been. Great place!
I got my car towed to Johns for a second opinion when the dealership I went to quoted a crazy-high price to fix my cooling system. Johns staff was very gracious & called me regularly to update me on the status of my car.And as it turns out, when they ran the same pressure test, there were only two little parts that needed replacing. Johns fixed my car for less than 1/10th of what the other guys were wanting to charge!On top of that, the work was done in one business day. I will definitely be coming back here.
I have been coming to Johns for 6 years and cant recommend them enough. I have two cars, a new one and an old. The old one is always a little unpredictable and finicky and sometimes takes some extra time to diagnose and fix the problem. The mechanics always get the job done fast and go the extra mile to make it right if something is not perfect. Example one: I picked the car up after some work had been done....the next day the accelerator was not working properly. They drove out to my house to fix the problem! Example two: The old car had a continuing problem where the belts would squeal. John and is team tried twice to solve the problem. When the squealing came back the second and third time we were only charged for parts....no labor. John also came in on his day off before Christmas to get the job done. 5 Stars! Thanks, John!
Offers free shuttle service so you can pick your vehicle up and drop it off! John does good work and is super friendly. Quality place, would recommend!
Ive been going to Johns Auto Care for almost 6 years now after being recommended there. Its always been a great experience with work well done, timely and always backed up by their guarentee. The staff is always a pleasure as well, even going as far as to help provide a ride to and from work for me.Ill continue to use Johns shop and refer all of my friends to what I consider to be the safest and most reliable shop in Boulder.
This place is the best! John is awesome as is his little pup. Rachel up front is super sweet and very helpful. They get everything done in a timely fashion!
Fantastic. You know your car is in good hands. Great vibe when you go in, really accommodating. Great well established business. Definitely recommend taking your car to Johns Auto Care!
We are completely sold on Johns Auto Care. After many years of unsuccessful attempts by other Boulder mechanics to fix suspension problems with our Ford Explorer, John got it running as good as it ever has been. John carefully explains the problems he finds and what needs to be done to fix them. Johns is a place you can trust to get the job done right at affordable cost. We wont take our cars anywhere else from now on.
John made my car dependable and functional when I was beginning to think Iβd have to get rid of it. They are knowledgable and trustworthy and I believe Iβm lucky to have found them. Iβd highly recommend them.
I was referred to Johns Auto Care by a family that has been taking their cars there for years. From the friendly and knowledgeable reception to the the personal service of John himself, I am glad I took my car there.*update*Years later I still LOVE Johns service. Not only did he fix my awful old car but he gave me recommendations on cars when I was shopping for a new one, and now Im taking the new car to him.
Johns Auto Care is amazingly thorough and honest. I trust them to tell me the straight story about my car and to use their top notch expertise to fix it right!
They are the best Auto repair shop I have ever been to. Honest and friendly.
Im so happy I finally found an auto mechanic I can trust. I knew what was wrong with my Mini Cooper after multiple estimates and BS from several mechanics who were charging outrageous amounts for add ons that didnt need to be done. John diagnosed the problem perfectly without any add ons or extra charges and was 10% lower than any other estimates. Fixed it on time and it runs perfectly! 6 stars out of 5!
I have been taking both of my cars to John for about 5 years. Last week I brought one of my cars in and found out it was going to cost almost $2000 to fix (compromised head gasket). Being that its a 15 year old car with a lot of miles, we chose not to do the work. I wont bore you with the details, but John treated me more like a nephew than a customer. He gave me his honest opinion. I decided to do something different and he still didnt charge me for the hour of labor. I think it was because he truly saw how tough the situation was for me. Anyone in Boulder would be crazy to trust anyone else with their cars! Thanks John!
These guys are the best. No joke. Businesses as friendly, honest, straightforward, and professional as this one are extremely rare. I plan on taking my car to them from now on and recommending them to everyone I know.
I always know that the team at Johns is looking out for any problems that might be there, even if I was not aware. They go above and beyond, always checking all the critical areas, even when you are just balancing your tires. Peace of mind, and a huge thanks to John and his team.
Always a pleasure to work with. Very professional!
Great Service and follow up. They took the time to explain how they fixed the items and why it needed to be done. They really want the customer to be satisfied.Forrest
Heres a first. On Saturday afternoon, I went online and requested a Tuesday appointment with 4 items: Oil change, Fuel Filter, Tire Rotation, Tailgate repair.* All items were done on time and on budget.* I was able to confirm the appointment via email on Monday morning without a phone call.:->* John was personable and shows a passion for cars and trucks.
Ive been looking for a reliable auto service and repair store, and I saw that Johns Auto Care had good reviews, so I thought Id try it out.I found the customer service personnel to be friendly, and for all I know, the service technicians did a fine job servicing my vehicle. The only problem is that they were apparently smoking marijuana while they serviced it.After taking my car to Johns, it smelled like marijuana for about 2-3 weeks. If youre into that sort of thing, maybe Johns is the place for you. I, however, didnt appreciate it.
I have been going to Johns for over 3 years. Prior to moving to Boulder, my mechanic was my brothers best friend, so I was used to excellent, honest service.I first went to Johns when I popped the oil pan of my Jetta. I went to a quick-lube place who alerted me of the problem & told me that it would cost about $700. A friend referred me to Johns, who quoted me $400. Needless to say, I went to Johns and have been going ever since. They let me know what my car needs done now, and what can wait. They have never charged me more than estimated, and have quickly fixed anything that I had issue with. I am a satisfied customer!
After coming here for a 3rd opinion on a problem I was having with my F-150, they saved me nearly $1,000 of unnecessary work and fixed the problem within the day. I greatly appreciate Nates help, everyone I met was very nice and honest. I dont think I will ever take my vehicles anywhere else.
Genuinely friendly, a true partner in auto car, keeps you up to date via text or email. I always leave happy and feeling well cared for.
A Mechanic you can trust. John is a great with cars and an even better person i will bring all my vehicles to him forever.
Johns Auto Care offered to replace my clutch a second time free of charge because they had learned information about the parts they had used the first replacement (before I had even owned the car!!). To me, that is a huge plus about their level of customer care. Thanks Johns Auto Care!!!
Finished all the work while I sat in their reception, drank their coffee and used their wireless internet!Very friendly and explained all the work that they were carrying out on my SUV. They even highlighted some future maintenance needs, with no pressure to have them fixed immediately. Overall, very professional and exactly the mechanic that I need!
Wonderful people and efficient service, thank you!!
Johns auto care was very nice to deal with. Did inspection since I was not in the cue - I thought we were scheduled. - took me back under lift and pointed out where the head gaskets were wet with oil and the steering gear and boot were wet with fluid. What they missed was a torn passenger side cv boot and how the car had been in a front end collision the right headlight replaced (new lens)and the front uni-body pulled back out. Radiator not correctly fastened in.The passenger fender was replaced and a liner for wiring harness not installed correctly and belt cover missing. My regular mechanic said I should ask for my inspection fee back. Thank you Intermountain Subaru.
When My clutch gave out in my 1999 Subaru Forester I called Johns Auto because a friend had recommended him. I have never been treated so well at a mechanics before. John gave me a ride home and figured out that the problem was a hydraulics hose underneath the clutch. He also did a thorough evaluation of the car and made a list of the most important fixes in the near future. John and the woman at the front desk, Rachel, were very knowledgeable and helpful. Its so refreshing to be able to trust your mechanic! If you have any problem with your car, large or small, go to John!
I cannot give enough praise to this shop. Ive never taken the time to write a review or give a rating for anything but these guys deserve it! We came in for a pre-purchace inspection and oil change. Fast, friendly and DID NOT overcharge or jerk us around. They even had toys in the lobby for my baby to play with while we waited. By far the best service Ive experienced at any auto care shop Ive been to. If we, or anyone we know, has any car problems we will definitely be coming to John and his team! Thank you so much!
I just came in for an air conditioning problem that no one seemed to be able to solve. John and his technicians spent all day figuring out and tracing the problem until the air was once again blowing cold. Thanks to Johnβs, I am no longer miserable when driving around in the summer heat! Awesome service and people!
Very quick and professional service, and extremely friendly on top of it. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an honest and personal experience.
Service and staff have been great for years across a few F-150s now.
This shop really went the extra mile to get my vehicle aligned properly and expertly.
Johnβs is fantastic! They know what theyβre doing and donβt recommend service you donβt need. They are a wonderful team of professionals.
The staff at Johns Auto Care were extremely thoughtful and went out of their way to help me with my car issues, even after I had left the shop. Car repairs are generally a hassle, which is why the good service and skillful staff at Johns are priceless.
It is always great to find a business that is friendly, honest, and caring. Johns Auto Care is all this, and more. From the warm greeting when you walk in, and the meticulous way that they make sure that you are satisfied, plus letting you know in advance those things that you should be prepared for.Just because you think you know what you think your car needs, the crew here will find out the true problem so that you are not overwhelmed with an unexpected repair. And they will still check your vehicle to be sure there are no surprises after you thought all was said and done.In my case, I plan on keeping my Miata for many years to come, and I am glad to know that Johns will take good care of her. I had some belts replaced due to an oil leak, and thought I ruined her water pump. John was willing to come personally where I was stranded, and made sure that my Miata was ok. That oil leak on the water hose will cause the hose to fail, and that was the simple repair that others may have addressed as a more costly option.Also, when the part that you need will not work, John will be sure to go the extra mile to measure the part and be sure that it will work, safely. His staff and he himself will give you a detailed understanding, in clear terms, of what they can do and how long it will take. And they offer a courtesy shuttle when the job will take most of the day or more.I am glad to find as caring a business as Johns. Thank You for making me feel comforted that my Scarlet will be running fine for many years to come.
Recently, I experienced the dreaded signs of a bad U-Joint; tremors at all times when driving, severe rattling when driving over anything even slightly bumpy, and the odd sounds and pops of the needle bearings turning to dust under acceleration. John and the rest of the guys at Johns had me driving within a day, despite the yoke of the driveshaft sustaining damage due to both my negligence and ignorance. One often hears horror stories about auto repairs and the costs, wait times, and general pain, but this could not have been a better experience. I ended up paying less than I was quoted for, which was already halfway cheaper than another shops quote for the exact same job. Huge thanks to Johns, I will be doing all of my maintenance and other work with you all from now on!
Excellent service, quick and efficient staff, good price.
Lovely friendly team, great service, reasonable prices!
Easy to work with.... Service was timely and awesome.... Friendly ....I will be back!
Stellar, personalized service, attention to detail, and going the extra mile, so to speak, on behalf of the customer. Feel confident with, and at, Johns.
Very nice people and most importantly they fixed my car!
John is honest and service is professional.
Our Jetta is about to turn 210,000 miles, and its running strong thanks to the good folks at Johns Auto Care. Without them, Im sure our trusty Jetta would have given up by now!Johns Auto Care is the type of shop you can put your trust in for the life of your vehicle. They will guide you to the right decisions for preventive maintenance, and when something breaks you can count on them to get it fixed right.
Best mechanic and service around!
The people at Johns are are super friendly.
Fantastic and so helpful
Amazing service & knowledge people
