They replaced my brake pads for a very fair price, and they cleaned the exterior of my car without even mentioning it. I didnt notice until I got home but its spotless, and they didnt charge me for it.Jose, the gentleman who serviced my car, was really kind and warm, and just generally knowledgeable. This is the best auto shop Ive ever been to, and its the only one I will go to from now on.

I absolutely love this place. Jose is the owner and he knows everything there is to know about cars from the inside out.Fortunately, he has also passed on his mechanical prowess to his son and the rest of the mechanics are excellent too.Above all else, Jose is very honest and before he does any work on your car; he will answer all questions you have regarding any repairs that need to be done on your car before he does the repairs.He has gone as far as popping the hood of the car for me and showing me as well as explaining to me what needs to be done to fix my car.Honesty, Reasonable Pricing, and RESPECT for all clients at Jims Auto Repair. It doesnt get any better than this!!

Jose is super sweet and he only charged me what another shop was going to charge me just for diagnostics. I was in and out in less than 2 hours. I know nothing about cars and luckily he didn’t try to rip me off for a simple fix. I’ll definitely come back!

Review №24

Took my car to two places before coming here. No one could tell me what was wrong with my car nor give me a guarantee or at least be certain that if I let them work on the car, it would be fixed. I let Mr. Jim test drive the car and he was sure with 80% certainty what the problem was. Didnt play any games or offer any deals. He gave me a fair price to do the work and he did it. My car feels like new. Highly recommend. You can tell as soon as you meet him and speak with him, theres no BS. Absolutely satisfied.

Honest, dependable and fast. Not adjectives normally used to describe a mechanic. Jose and his team have my full endorsement. There are certain places for woman hates to enter speaking for myself its a mechanic and Frys Electronics I can say at least for this mechanic I have never had such a good experience thanks to all involved.

Great honest mechanic. Can be a bit pricey for some services. However Jose will always tell you what is wrong and wont charge for services you dont need. Have taken all my familys cars here and always know I can trust the job was done right.

Review №36

Jims Auto is the most reliable and honest car repair shop I have ever used. I cant say enough good things about them. We have 2 older cars with high mileage and Jose at Jims keeps them running and not for a lot of money. I will never use dealerships again once warranty is expired on any of our cars. I highly recommend them. If you go elsewhere, you will pay more and pay for things you dont know.

Review №37

Jose (the current owner) will do you right. I have brought both of our family cars here and he always gives you options with what needs to be done without pushing for the most expensive options. On one of our cars, we opted to postpone having something done because we couldnt afford it at the time. Since he had part of the engine out and he was near the part we were going to defer, he replaced it anyway and said we could pay for the part and service fee for labor next time we came in, saving us paying the full labor cost of removing the part he already had off. When one of our cars had a catastrophic failure, he let me know right away that it was not worth repairing. He didnt make any attempt to push me into a very expensive repair. That sort of honesty is sometimes lacking in car repair shops and is greatly appreciated.

This review is for customer service:I called just to get an estimate and Jr. was helpful,patient, knowledgeable...and even asked for all my info to give me options on repairing my 2009 CC turbo engine. id called more well-known places who quoted me 2-3times higher and have no alternatives to repair.unfortunately,I didnt have all the finances to start the process for installing the new engine but now I know exactly where Im taking my car once I do.Ill follow-up with a final review once installation service is completed!

I just dont have enough words to write down. Excited, happy, glad, fulfilled, thankful, delited and so much more. When I say Im beyond thankful and happy... Jims auto brought my 1974 Volkswagon Battle ( Bug) back alive. Im and just filled with excitement... clean repair, honesf employees, very reasonable prices. The car mechanic Mr. Jose clearly took his time, found out exactly what my bug needed and just Performed the magic. I sure will be using this business for car repairs from this day forward. No more searching and wondering. Sweet Pea has found a excellent hospital and a great doctor.... Tara

Great place, their work is quality and the techs aswell as the head honcho, Jose, are all honest and knowledgeable guys. Would recommend for any VW or Audi work.They could have easily charged me more or sold me something that I didnt need, since I dont know much about my new(to me) VW Gli. Therefore Ill keep my business with them.The only con is that you have to be proactive about calling them, since they have a lot of cars on their lot.
