The motor mounts were also replaced. What a difference...my car is so quiet now. I stopped by the shop and actually spoke to the mechanic who did the work. I thanked him and told him he did a great job. I forgot to get his name but he knows who he is.The only thing I was unhappy with is I was without a car for 3 days due to delayed delivery of parts
These guys are great! I needed my bumper reattached, and came in without a set appointment. They got to me a little while later - which was totally fine - but they felt I waited too long, so they fixed it for free! So nice to know there are still neighborhood repair shops like this. I will definitely be going back. Thanks Joels!
The best mechanics in town very professional JOEL is a professional all the way through very nice person

Awesome shop! Super clean! Which says a lot for a shop working on cars.
Joel and his staff were wonderful! They took care of me fast and efficiently. Highly recommend!
Joel was great. Had an electrical issue on my truck and was driving across country next day. His team turned it around in a couple hrs. Would recommend to anyone.
First time customer and I was greatly impressed how smooth everything went.
Reliable and honest, trustworthy workmanship for your car maintenance and repair
I’ve been a customer here since 2005 and they have always been trustworthy with great customer service. A great and honest mechanic is hard to find, but Joel is very honest and he makes sure that his team of mechanics are continually learning and staying current on their knowledge of the different makes and models of, old and new, cars on the market. I have recommended Joel’s to anyone who has asked and I will continue to do so.
I went to get my car maintinenced for a road trip and hes telling me I need more stuff done and it would run me up to 5 grand. Got another mechanic to do it and he maintenance my car and said nothing else was wrong all for 800 bucks. Dont trust this place. They are a scam and pray on the ignorant. This place told me I had all these issues when jnothingwas wrong.

Ive taken several vehicles to Joels for smog check. Prompt professional service every time - a recent battery change on my truck caused an error, but with a bit of driving, problem was solved. Thanks!
Its a nightmare to find honest, professional, non shady places. Fortunately I lucked out finding this shop.
Good fast service. They provide a nice waiting room and I was feeling a little faint - didnt eat breakfast or lunch - and they had healthy snacks! I really needed that.
Excellent work as usual!!

Short story: we brought a car with a weird noise, we were charged 2200 and after a week took the car back with the same problem. Owner even didnt find out during the week what is the problem, he randomly changed parts, it didnt help, but took money for his unprofessional service.The whole situation: 07/09/2020 we (me and my husband) left place at 9th st Upland in two cars (one car is a commercial van), my husband called me right away and told that it is a noise in the back of his car and he doesnt want to take a chance and go to freeway. I googled auto repair and we went to Joels. They took our car, made a short slow run on it about 100ft to the garage and after couple hours of waiting owner told that to fix a car will cost around 1500. His opinion was that some bearing damaged we agreed to fix it. In the morning we called to check the progress and got a news that it would cost 1900, cuz he thought that another bearing should be replaced. He promised get back later afternoon. He didnt. Next morning I stopped by and he showed me some parts and told that is to complicated and expensive to buy them, thats why he will order the whole thing and it would be 2200. Promised to call next morning, and he didnt. My husband called twice and finally got an info that part would be Wednesday afternoon. Again no calls, we stoped by Friday early morning. Owner told us that everything fixed, but he wanted to make sure that it is no noise, and he needs a few more hours to check the car in a freeway. We waited the whole Friday and called again. Owner told that we can come to pick the car up. My husband with the owner drove it and the situation was the same, the same noise. Owner started explain me which parts he changed, Im still not sure that it was necessary, cuz the problem wasnt resolved. I asked put my parts back, and let me go to the other auto repair, he told that he already threw my old parts away. I offered him invite a third party expert to evaluate this situation, he rejected. He held our car and finally I called the police. Police came and explain me what I should do with this situation, thank you very much them for that. Ill go by the end, and I will file claim to the bar and court, and will do expertise.I lost time, customers and money with their service, keep away from this place and do not repeat our mistakes.

Pricing and customer service were excellent.
They were very honest and helpful. They kept me updated from beginning to end. Prices were very fair. Every time I go I’m in and out. Thanks for your business.
Joel and his team were great! When dealing with my 08 Dodge ram . Very helpful n honest . Highly recommend
Joel has been our family mechanic since I was a kid. He’s honest and fair. My car is 16 years old and running great.
Joel has been a caring and proficient mechanic who we’ve relied on for over 35 years. He is fair, and he backs up his work, and is an exemplary Christian businessman. I would recommend him for all your auto repairs.
Have used Joels for more than 30 years. Always professional and friendly.
My radiator in my 2005 Nissan Quest had cracked and was leaking. I spoke to Joels Auto Repair and they were able to take me in look at my cooling system. I had my mini van back the very next day and the cooling systems was working at peak efficiency. The following day I took the minivan to Dodgers stadium and it gave me no problems even with the continuous stop and go traffic going to Dodgers Stadium. Fantastic job and timely service all at a very reasonable price.
Friendly customer service and honest work!
Joel is always helpful, his new Receptionist is very knowledgeable about cars and very friendly.
Joel was very effective, efficient, professional, honest, reliable, courteous, knowledgeable, friendly and kept his word. He even returned our call (a 1st time customer ) on a Sunday morning, when they were closed. We towed our car there & he changed the starter, etc. the same day and did a few other things also. I highly recommend him!!
Definitely would recommend anyone to come in. The staff and owner were very professional in doing their job and the facility was very well maintained and clean. Will definitely take care of you with any issue you are having. Thanks Ceaser for the great job.
The staff is courteous, efficient, reliable, knowledgeable and kind. I have always had a good experience there. I am very comfortableWith the service I receive each time. The shop is clean and beautiful.
Joels automotive is the best place to have any of your vehicle needs met. From major repairs to tires or battery replaced. The staff there is fantastic and everyone know what to do and how to do it. I would and I do recommend Joels Automotive to everyone.
Joel did a smog on two of my cars with in on week. Called and he gave me an appointment time, I was there on time and on my way home in 10-12 minutes. Could not have been any smoother. Thank you Joel..
Great staff with true concern for the customers auto
Having moved to Upland a year ago my sister in law whose been taking her vehicles to Joels for years recommended him.I was so pleased in the service on my vehicle that I brought my wifes vehicle in the next day.Outstanding service and price A+
Able to handle an emergency visit and fix the problem to get me back on the road
The mechanics are very knowledgeable. Everyone here had excellent customer service and were all very helpful. I would definitely return for future services and recommend to family and friends.
Price reasonable
Great service
I took my Audi in for some repairs and Joels knew exactly where to troubleshoot and tackle the job. Got my vehicle back in no time and Susie is very informative and super nice! I will be coming back for the next job!
Really good customer service, they check my car so fast and give me accurate information, best part? The price! Good experience!
Most welcoming staff every time I come in. Only place I trust to take my car. Any questions big or small, they break it down for me so I understand. Even bring out the parts or pictures so I have a visual. I only go to Joels
Bad quality work. This place can’t be trusted. I’m very disappointed. Would have rather paid 3x the money for a good job.
My boyfriend just bought a used 2000 Cadillac DHS, It looked nice but it had a lot of problems. He lives in California and they require a car to pass a smog test before you can get your tags and license plates. When my boyfriend got the car tested it did not pass it needed transmission work and a bunch of other minor issues that had to be fixed. He wanted to get this done right away and after a few days of calling different shops Joels was able to get him in right away and they had the best estimate. With so much work we just knew that it would take about 5-6 weeks to get it done, but it actually only took about 3 1/2 weeks which was a lot faster than we expected. The customer service here is awesome too, each time my boyfriend would call the service manager was very nice and provided plenty of information about the car. He would explain what work had been done and how much was left to do. When he went to pick up his car they had vacuumed it out and cleaned the windows . He was impressed by the service and all the parts are warranted. The car passed the smog test and he was able to get the plates and tags. I would definitely recommend this shop to everyone.
You guys are all great out there. Thank you for being honest, communicative, and hard working. We will be coming back.
Joel is amazing. His rates are great and his skill is second to none. Hell treat your car like it was his own and always backs up his work.His communication is excellent and turnaround times seem to be pretty quick.
The people are great, its a nice clean place and they take care of you. Trustworthy mechanic, which is as valuable as gold. Go check them out!
A sound mechanic shop. Fair and balanced. Good prices and friendly service. Have used them for over 10 years on 3 different vehicles.
Excellent customer service and they did a great job on my car! I highly recommend this place to everyone.
I have been a very satisfied customer for 25 years...always very professional and curious 👍..and workers take pride in their excellent job ..like their Boss Joel .
Love this place. They understand and help with your timeline. Professional and courteous. I would highly recommend Joel’s Automotive.
This automotive service was great. The customer service rep. Helen was a great rep, she walked me thru everything. She was great. Highly recommended. Thanks Joel for your services
Very satisfied customer for over 12 years.
Joels staff were polite, efficient and did my smog check and certificate quickly. I will definitely be a returning customer for my regular honda maintenance. I Highly recommend Joels.
Friendly and helpful service. They pointed out additional issues, with no hard sell.
My sincere thanks to Joels Automotive Repair-Upland. The service I received was outstanding. After receiving the disappointing news from the dealer that my Prius engine was in need of replacement I started making calls to find someone who specialized in hybrid motors and would provide me with a trusted second opinion. I luckily found Joels Automotive online and made an immediate call. In conversation with Joel I had great confidence, as he was clear and precise and had an immediate plan of action and provided an estimate over the phone. I delivered the car to Joels and his team who were professional, friendly and extremely helpful. After only a few days and with much appreciated text updates they made the repair without the costly replacement of a motor and had me back in my vehicle in no time and at the same estimated cost I initially received. I also received a follow up message a few days after delivery to make sure all was good. Joel definitely raises the service bar with stellar service. I am very impressed and very thankful. Thank you again and much appreciated. John N.
Great service and is always fair! Joel is the ONLY shop I go to due to his knowledge and service. I recommend him to all my friends and Family.
First rate auto repair services Took my large SUV in to Joels Automotive on short notice for emergency repairs after getting the run around by the dealerships. Joel and his staff were very friendly, accommodating, and completed the repairs in record time. Soon, I was back on the road traveling worry free. The cost was more than fair, he is honest and dependable, which is refreshing to see today. I highly recommend Joels Superior Automotive for all your vehicle repair services.
Great shop. Completed a repair at a third of the price I was quoted at the dealership. Honest and quick! Found myself a new mechanic that I can trust.
Excellent work on finding and fixing my ac problem. Thank you.
Joels trustworthy, helpful and knowledgable. He helped me out with an easy in and out repair and from seeing other peoples satisfaction as they passed through while I was waiting for my car, they seem to feel the same way. Definitely planning on coming back for repairs when needed.
Joel, the owner, is a true professional. Took time out of his busy schedule to personally go on a ride-along with me to diagnose the issue with my vehicle. Very personable and knowledgeable, obviously cares a great deal about his trade. Will definitely be using Joel whenever Im anywhere close to the Greater Los Angeles area.
When I first moved to this area 5 years ago and had car problems, I had so many shady mechanics tell me all kinds of things my car needed without even taking a look at my car. Knowing that mechanics can screw women out of $ at times I continued searching and read reviews on Joels Auto Repair on the internet. They were really good reviews, better than any one else in the Claremont/Upland area. I visited Joels shop and he confirmed that all the things the other mechanics told me I needed were simply not true. His shop is impeccably clean, and the service I get has always been A+. The employees are friendly and they even give me rides home when my car needs to stay for a while and then pick me up also. This is the very best automotive shop I have ever dealt with in my entire life of 55 years. I will never go to another mechanic for as long as I live in this area. Their prices are reasonable and I always get excellent service. A huge Thank You goes out to Joel and his staff for the friendly service and for coming to my rescue at a moments notice so many times in the past. I have an older car but it just keeps running thanks to honest and dependable mechanics.
The best auto repair and service ever!
Most definitely recommend my family and friends to your shop 🚕🚗🚘🚛🚚
Ive rescued a beat up miata, and these guys have helped a lot with giving it the love it deserves. If you need any help with all things automotive, you can trust these guys to help out.
Joel takes a logical approach to each repair and respects his clients.
At Joes Automotive you will be taken care of professionally honestly and fairly going to be treated with respect thank you
You can bring your car repairs here with confidence to get the correct diagnosis and fair price, most of all you can trust these owners for excellency
Clean and happy!
I went to Joels for a smog check and they were fast, courteous and friendly. They even had snacks! :) Highly recommend!
Always excellent service
I do not trust this place. I went in for maintenance and they told me my water pump was bad and I didnt have any problems with it until after they messed with it. My truck stranded me 50 miles away 3 months later and my co-worker and I replaced it and no problems ever since. Customer service is not that great either.
The best customer service I could possibly imagine. The quality of work was just as great as there customer service! I will be back VERY soon
IVE BEEN TAKING MY CARS TO JOELS SINCE 2003. ONE TIME A BRAKE SHOP WANTED TO CHARGE ME 450.00 FOR A REPAIR. I TOLD THEM PUT MY CAR TOGETHER AND I SAVED OVER $200.00
Joel does a good job at a fare price.
Joel is a straight shooter hes always fixed my vehicles right the first time, fair pricing and honest service.
Joels automotive is a first class establishment with great service.
#1 You can trust this repair shop... which are pretty hard to find these days.. Very transparent about the job they do and knowledgable about their work. Prices arent the lowest and they arent the fastest but its worth the honest work they do. Had my compressor replaced, the replaced product was a defect (manufacturers fault), took full responsiblity and was replaced again free of charge. Would definitely recommend this place..
Very Positive! Great service, friendly, timely, and cost-effective. Highly recommend!
They were very professional and very understanding. The prices were fair, this place is definitely my one and only mechanic
Joel has always treated me in a fair and honest manner. His repairs on my vehicles have always been first rate.
