Great place, great guys! I had an issue on my leave from The Army, and they fixed it within the hour! And referred me to their other store Tito’s for my tire change, all in all took about 2hrs. Solid people, great and fast. Truly supportive to Service member!
They are very friendly... a bit too friendly. Joking of course. Theyre great people. In terms of customer service. Theyre like the Chick-Fil-A of repair shops.
Very good customer service and quick repairs. They are truthful and frank with the cars condition and necessary repairs and dont try to get you jumping at problems that arent there to make a quick buck. Small team though, so there might be a delay if you give them too much to do at once.
Great People! Awesome experience. Fast service, fair prices, expert staff. Everything you could hope to find in an auto service provider!
I took my truck here and got some pretty major front end work done, as well as some steering column work. Mr. William who runs the shop is an amazing mechanic who is incredibly honest and fair. His work is superb and his prices are super reasonable. I would recommend this shop to anyone who is looking for a shop that wont jerk them around and wants quality work at a fair price. Youre messing around if you take your car anywhere else in this area
Words cannot express my appreciation for Mr. William and Mr. Roberto for helping me out on my vehicle. They were able to get the job done quickly and maintained every moment professional. They are honest and hard working men! I will most definitely be coming back and making them my permanent personal mechanics as well as recommending to all friends and family. Thank you guys for making this possible, you both did an outstanding job today.
Agian, another great experience at Joses! Will is the best he is a straight shooter and will make sure you are satisfied with his service. Thank you Will for making sure our cars are always running properly!
Really nice crew there, They are so kind, all the employees and their boss..toot toot👌👍
Wonderful care and expertise as always!
ALWAYS a pleasure coming to the shop. Great mechanics that know what theyre doing, friendly environment, and some of the best prices youll find anywhere.
Will, manager, is top shelf! Believe me when I say, this is an honest place to get work done on your car. Excellent mechanics and service, the search is over for me. Has my business forever!
I am writing this review on behalf of my uncle. He brought my Grandma’s 2003 Cadillac CTS in for much needed repairs. This place was very reasonably priced, and had great customer service. He is beyond satisfied with the work performed, and the overall experience at Jose’s Auto Center. He will be using Jose’s in the future for any repairs needed.
Took my car in for a small oil leak and check engine light. Somehow I needed all my gaskets changed and my timing belt changed which my car doesn’t have, it has a serpentine belt. Total came to $1,600. Took it to another shop and the work I really needed was a quarter of that. Leak was very localized so don’t know how all my gaskets could’ve been leaking. Be wary of this shop telling you that you need more work than what you really need.
Amazing service! By far the best I have been to. People know what they’re doing and there’s no other customer service like this one! I’m 100% coming back!
Good place and honest. Jose has retired but so far he seems to have a sufficient successor.
Jose is a great, Christian man, full of faith, love and diligence. I see him as the grandfather I always wanted. He truly cares about his customers and I have never been disappointed going there. The love and respect that I have for him and his beautiful family is overwhelming. Going to the mechanic is usually not the best feeling in the world, especially for your pockets but when I go to Joses, I feel like I am family and that changes my mood completely.
This is the most trustworthy and friendly auto center Ive have ever been to. I never have to worry about car problems because I know that Im going to get my problems fixed at a great price. The staff is wonderful and Mr. Jose has always treated me with respect. This auto center is filled with integrity and I will always come here for all my automotive needs. I highly recommend this shop to any and everyone!
Our car caught a flat and we called every where nothing! Finally we got in touch with Jose who informed us that he had the tire but was leaving soon.. we got there at exactly 6pm when they were closing the gate... he immediately reopened and didn’t hesitate to help us.... Jose you saved my Friday!!!!! I recommend this establishment to any and everyone in need of auto service....
These guys have never overcharged me, are always quick and take pride in honesty. They always show me the issues with my vehicle upon request and explain to me the issue so I have a better understand of my car in the future. Keep it up folks!
Joses Auto Center is one of the last true auto mechanic locations left in the greater Tampa Bay area. I and my family have known and trusted Joses business for many years. Honest, reputable, and someone you can count on to explain to you what is really going on with your auto. The folks at Joses Auto Center fixes what needs to be fixed and does not try to sell you something you do not need. I have been going to them for over 15 years and have never had an issue with a repair, they stand by their work.When someone comes to me to ask for a good mechanic I always refer them to this shop because I have a reputation as well!!!!
I am honestly humbled by my experience here. Earlier today I went to another business to get an alignment but as soon as I left I realized my turn signals were dead. When I went back they called it a coincidence and pointed out other electrical problems my car is having, then they put me under the impression that I needed to replace my turn signal switch and gave me an estimate. Thankfully I did not allow them to keep working on my car and came here instead.The owner ordered the switch for my car model which arrived very quickly and he installed it fast, but the reason why you should bring your car to THIS shop is because of what happened next: He installed the turn signal switch but the problem remained so he decided to look into it. What he found was that just a fuse needed replacement, not the entire signal switch. Even so he had gotten the part sent to him and installed it he was kind and honest enough to tell me what the real problem was and fixed my turn signal switch in no time. Also, he was kind enough to realize the kind of day I was having and told me he was charging only for the labor as we went to the register.Ive come directly home to write this review because I know its difficult to find honest people who do honest work but Im very happy to see I found a place to trust. I dont think Ill be going to any other shop for as long as I live in Tampa. Do yourself a favor. Bring your car here.
Joses is the best! I love that they are a family owned establishment. I am a single mom with twin boys and I am so thankful to have Joses to bring my car in for repairs. They are extremely nice and honest about what needs to be done. Jose calls me to tell me what needs to be repaired now and what can wait until later. Great people, great service and great prices equals happy me!
I am from out of town and found this business on Google Maps and after reading the reviews, decided to take my truck there. Jose greeted me and I explained what my trucks symptoms were and he had one of his mechanics replace a sensor and while it was on the rack, I had them replace my rear shocks that I had in the truck with me. My father owned a service station and I worked there as a kid and I know a good mechanic when I meet one. Will definitely use this company again and do highly recommend them. This is a private family owned business. Joses wife works the office and he answers the phone. Good people. Very clean shop and professional service.
The best place to fix your car
Good and honest work! I have been here twice now, most recently for ac repair and now it works wonderfully! Would recommend to anyone.
My husband was referred to Joses Auto Service through the Vocational Rehabilitation of Florida.When we met Jose he was immediately very friendly and explained the process of getting ourcar repaired through VR. My husband had gone to two other shops prior to going to Jose forestimates on the repairs needed to the car. Jose was not only at least 1/2 the cost of the otherrepair shops but he told my husband that the other shops wanted to charge him for parts he didnteven need. My Father-In-Law changed some of these parts himself only months before, so myhusband KNEW they didnt need replaced again! Jose was very honest and his staff are very friendly.His prices are excellent and he goes out of his way to make sure his customers are satisfied. My husbandand I have been using his garage for all of our car needs ever since. I would HIGHLY recommend him toanyone without question. He wont cheat you and his work is top quality.
BEST place to take your car. The people are amazing and friendly. They fixed the problems in my car and truely seemed to care about my safety. I highly recommended them to anyone. They order the parts you need and try to work with you on pricing and getting it done as soon as possible.
My daughter and son have both taken their vehicles here. After the experience my daughter had yesterday we will definitely be taking our case here also! Thank you for treating her so well!
Had a problem with the electrical system on my car took the car in and when I got it back not all of the buttons where working correctly --little stuff like no more automatic windows, but after a week that suddenly fixed itself.Then the radiator hose suddenly blows out 2 weeks after. Take the car in fine... but a day or two latter I notice I now have a sound like crickets coming from my engine. And a week after that my breaks sound like grinding on metal.Take the car in AGAIN... and the brakes are adjusted... Wife is driving the car and the next time I drive it 3 days later I notice the grinding sound is gone BUT now the breaks are high pitched squealing noise...This all seems very convenient that problem 1 happens and two week later problem 2 and then problem 3, 4 & 5.
I could never go anywhere else! Jose and his family take great care of me, have the best pricing in town and I never worry about being upsold or told that I need something when I really dont.Thank you Jose and Irma for everything that you do!
Best mechanic! Honest. Doesnt find things to repair.
Only place aloud to maintenance or touch my vehicle. I visited this place on March 25th and had my vehicle maintenance as well as for brand new tires and Jose never over prices in does great work. Not like some mechanics when you get your vehicle back and suddenly begins to have another problem. Does not happen with this mechanic shop. Thank you Jose for doing great work and taking care of my vehicle
Great guy not out to rip you off. Very honest
Best ever. No cheating you here
Jose is a very honest down to earth mechanic brought my car here many times and he’s reasonable not outrageous prices like other mechanics out there family owned business I would recommend this place here any day and you know it’s hard to trust mechanics they always try to rob you but not with Jose he gives you honest information on what you need done for your car always been very happy with his place
I went here w damage to my truck after being stolen. Jose found me good used parts at good prices. Plus everyone is very friendly. If youre looking for someone to trust w your vehicle, I highly recomend Joses auto center.
Been going for years. Its a family business and they CARE and have a great work ethic and attitude. Most of all, they are honest.
Jose is very knowledgeable in his craft. Very few mechanic shops are as honest as him.
The people who wrote the poor reviews about Joses Auto Center are obviously from a dealership that have lost business to Jose. Jose has literally saved me thousands of dollars. I had a simple oil change done on my vehicle at MacDill AFB and they stripped the bolt to my oil pan. While deployed, my wife brought the car to a dealership. They said the oil pan was discontinued and told her that it would cost more ($3000-$4000) than the car was worth and she should therefore buy a new vehicle. She brought the car to Joses and he fixed it for under $800.A year later I was having problems with my vehicle again. I once again took my car to a dealership and was told to buy a new car and that the work would cost $3000+. Brought the car back to Jose and told him I thought the dealership was ripping me off. Jose fixed my car for $850.Dont waste your time reading the negative reviews, bring your car to Jose and youll find out for yourself that hes the best and most trustworthy mechanic in all of Tampa.
Always deliver quality work. I leave my car in full confidence knowing that this is one of the most trustworthy mechanics Ive ever worked with.
I have been going to Joses for over ten years after a referral from a friend. I am writing this review because someone going for the first time might have second thoughts. Joses Auto has been there a long time, sits off the main road, and you wont find a squeaky clean lobby and coffee. You will find one of the hardest working and best mechanics in Tampa. I have moved over an hour away from his shop and still take my cars there for repairs. I actually worry about when he is going to retire. After thinking about all the companies that I have done business with in the last 10 years in Tampa, Joses Auto would be on a very short list of my favorites. If you have not found your go to mechanic in Tampa, Joses is a true family owned gem.
Poor service. Paid to get my jeep fixed and they could not fix it. Still had to pay 600.00 for labor. Makes no sense.
We take our cars to Jose for maintenance and repair because he correctly diagnoses the problem, fixes our cars in a timely manner and has fair pricing. Weve never been disappointed with any work done by Jose and his staff.
The best service in Tampa area !!Amazing people, and great price .Se los recomiendo .
Great job, fare prices and most of all honest! Cant beat that. Highly recommend
If I could put no stars, I would. This man claims to be an honest Christian man, but all he is is a Money hungry crook who thinks adding insult to injury will gain him something. After almost 4K in repairs, my vehicle is still showing the same lights from the first time I took him my car. He claims every single time it is a new problem so that he can charge every time. Yet, THE SAME LIGHTS KEEP TURNING ON IN MY CAR! He claims it’s bc of the make of the vehicle, clears out the lights with a specific machine, and then a few weeks later when the same lights come on, he claims it’s a whole new problem. A God-fearing man should know that Being dishonest and scamming people out of money is very much frowned upon. Don’t waste your time OR money here. He will continue to heist you out of money and then claim he is an honest person. Liar and a thief! No gasten su tiempo aquí. Este hombre es deshonesto y le ropa todo su dinero y al fin nunca repara nada correctamente. Mejor encuentren alguien reputable. Reclama ser un hombre honesto de la iglesia pero me tomo a mi de pendeja. Encuentren otro mecánico que este no vale nada.
Jose is a trustworthy mechanic who always does a great job at a low price. I go to him whenever I can because I know he will do good work and save me money.
Spent 3 hours waiting for tires just to be told to come back the next day cause they ripped one of the tires on the machine. A waste of time
I have been taking my vehicles for repairs since Jose had his shop on Linebaugh Ave. Everytime I was treated with respect and consideration. Jose has corrected my cars issues with expertise, timeliness and professionalism. It has always been a great pleasure and satisfaction to know that the JOB is done correctly. Thank you Jose and your team. God Bless you and your familia.
Great service, and wonderful employees! They really value honesty and your money!
New ownership saved us thousands of dollars! Thanks William 😁
