I was worried about coming in today because I had an accident a while ago that I had to do some of my own repairs for. I didnt know what I was doing but I got the car running and have been driving with it for a year since the accident. For me the only issue I really had was my AC was out.I took the car in for an oil change and for them to check the AC. They did a courtesy check on the car which gave me some insight that was much needed and more in depth than other places that I have been. On top of that they were able to see one of the biggest problems with my AC.Now I just have to decide what I will do with my car and all the information I have. I will definitely come back!

It was a horrible service these people really dont know what they do and they just stealing peoples money left and right I guess they just still on business because somebody give them the place or the property all the ways there is no way for these people to survive

All’s well that ends well. Had a headlight promptly replaced for my 2012 VW Passat for a fair price along with upcoming service recommendations. All garages point out “needed” services beyond what you originally went in for, but the staff was not pushy, provided good explanation for what they assessed, and supplied printed quotes for each recommended service. Will be returning for additional work.

Super Courteous Folks at Jake Johnsons GarageI went to these guys in 09 after I first moved here and they treated us so well that had I not purchased a new vehicle shortly thereafter where I received free service under the warranty I wouldve continued having my vehicle serviced there. The price of oil changes vary depending on the vehicle and while they arent $14.99, they are reasonably priced and conveniently close by for those of us in the Sugar Hill/Suwanee area.Additionally, these guys were extremely helpful when I needed my emissions done quickly and safely during covid19. Im very high risk and didnt want to go thru a drive-thru testing center. I was supposed to drop the vehicles off before they opened to avoid unnecessary direct contact, but I arrived late and although they didnt have masks on initially, they were conscientious when it came to wiping down the inside of our vehicles and put masks on while we were in the parking lot waiting on the cashier to call us. If covid precautions are important to you Im guessing they wear masks the majority of the time and will certainly work with any requests you might have to ensure you feel comfortable. We did go back for an oil change on another morning without calling ahead and everyone was wearing a mask. They do get booked up during the week, so I would recommend calling a few days or a week ahead to schedule an appointment if possible.

After my experience at Jake Johnson’s Garage I would warn people to not go there due to poor business practices, incapable of performing necessary service required to repair vehicle. I hope you find this helpful. We will not be returning as customers.

I just got back from my first experience at Jake Johnsons garage, and Im absolutely going to be back. My car had a rubber protector on the underside of the front bumper get loose. Its probably an easy fix, but Im not a technical person. However, it needed to get fixed else it would drag on the ground and potentially fall off. I brought it over to JJs on A SATURDAY MORNING (they have Saturday hours - thats HUGE!!!). I explained to Jeff what was wrong and without a word, he brought it into the garage, spent 25 minutes on it (and mind you, he spent time to thoroughly inspect it, put in the right fasteners, and, working with his arms over his head. He pulled my car back out and returned it to me. I asked how much I owed and he just said to come back when I needed more work done. I would have gladly paid for the work, but he just smiled.So, lets review:- Extremely professional and thorough- SATURDAY HOURS- Thoughtfulness and graciousness- Local business that needs your love and supportFive Stars - No Question - Im sold

Im new to the area and didnt know any mechanics around here. Took my truck to Jake Johnsons Garage after reading the good reviews about them. They were very nice and kept me updated on what was going on with my truck. Will definitely be using them going forward.

Ive been coming here since I moved from Idaho back in 2011, and Jeff has always treated me right. They are always honest and professional. I also love that they are a family business.I recommend them to all my friends and neighbors!

Was able to take unused gas and oil here and have it safely disposed of! Only place in Gwinnett that I can find that will do that. Thank you for keeping Gwinnett clean and beautiful!

These People are the Best! Very Friendly & Caring towards their Customers. My first time ever going there, I had low tire pressure on one of the rear tires on my Diesel Truck, they went above & beyond for me, Jeff went around inspecting each tire & checked the pressure, including my spare tire, I’ll definitely be back.

Dropped my car off to see why I had five different codes pop up and just wanted to know what was wrong with it. I didn’t want them to fix it, I just wanted them to look at it. So I dropped the car off at 10:30am. I was told I’d hear back from them in an hour maybe two. I call back at 1:15pm (over two hours later and haven’t heard a thing) to be told “my car is the first on the line but he just went on a lunch break.” I called back at 3:30pm (it’s been five hours now and still nothing) to get the exact same response “my car is the first on the line but he was still on a lunch break.” Well, that’s one heck of a lunch break! I finally went in at 4:30pm (it’s now been six hours) to just pick up my car. No one called me saying my car was ready I just wanted my car back cause none of this seemed okay. I went in and was told I had problems with my cars oil and that I was losing a lot of oil and that the oil was too dark. I was also told I only had one code on my car and not five even though I have picture proof of the five. My cars oil has been recently changed, I had someone look at the oil yesterday and they said it was perfect and that my car was full. My car hasn’t been leaking oil either. I don’t appreciate being lied to about my vehicle. I’m never coming back here and can’t recommend it to anyone.

Pleasant staff. I had a coupon for a free oil change. They did just that and didnt try to up sell me on anything. They did tell me that the splash guard under the car engine was cracked, but no big deal at this time.

Very happy with these guys. I did have a small issue with my brakes squeaking but they were proactive, they reached out to me and fixed the issue. Id recommend these guys to anyone. They do car truck and marine. They have been in business for a good while, and seem like they have a good system going.

Had an 8am appointment to have a problem diagnosed. By 1330 they still have not even moved my vehicle to just look at it. When I went inside to talk with someone I noticed their schedule board. They had two appointments that were after me already crossed off!!! And the manager had nothing to say about it but some dumb, smart ass remark. Im sorry we couldnt get to it fast enough for you.

Review №29

Not the level of service Im used to receiving from them. Went there this Monday 06/04/2018 to have AC diagnosed. The front desk lady told me that they are busy and cannot do it. Scheduled an appointment for 06/06/2018. So I go there on Wednesday and they are like you need to come back on Thursday or Friday maybe... Who in the world would want to go 3rd time just to someone have a look at it? Jeff Im sorry to say but this place is losing the goodwill you built over the years.Been there today for oil change.. it was usual good experience that Im used to. So changed my rating. Thanks Jake and Courtney!

Not the level of service I am used to receiving from them. I was charged almost 200.00 for normal maintenance which was an inspection, oil change, and wiper blade replacement. I also asked for the tires to be rotated and balanced, however this maintenance was not performed although the rear tires have plenty of tread on them (hence my reason for wanting them rotated while I considered replacement tires). I also wasnt advised on a repair which needed to scheduled in the future. Overall, very unhappy with a garage that shares a name :( (Edited. The owner reached out to me regarding my experience and after a very pleasant discussion I have decided to change my review. Jeff was considerate, polite and explained the charges to the account and even offered a partial refund based on his findings. I will be bringing in the Prius to get the additional work done. Thanks Jeff for taking the time to call and discuss my concerns.

I was very pleased with my first experience at Jake Johnson’s Garage (JJG). I had my car towed to the JJG lot at the recommendation of a good friend after it cut off on Buford Hwy late one Friday evening. The staff promptly called me the following morning (Saturday) after having fully reviewed my complaint/request and offered me different levels of diagnostic help with very clear price ranges. They listened to my concerns and ruled out my thought of an alternator issue. They offered a simple and thorough explanation for the true nature of my car’s trouble and a conservative estimate. They did not rush me to get the car off the lot versus paying for all of the work, but offered to do partial work now and complete the work later if that was more financially feasible for me. In the end, after calling around, I did end up using JJG to complete all of my car’s repairs which totaled around $1500, nearly $150 less than their estimate with parts and labor!!Overall, great experience, knowledgeable staff, quick and quality service, good people.2 weeks in my car now... good as new!2006 VW JETTA TDI

I took my truck to have the engine fixed and they gave me a diagnosis and they had it for more than a week and they couldnt fix it and they told me the engine didnt work and they charged me $ 600 they stole my money. I took it to another workshop and they fixed it with the same engine that they told me was no longer working.
