Customer Reviews
I can’t say enough good things about this shop! I brought my car in to have the timing chain fixed, and they not only got it done two days earlier than expected, but also took care of a few other things they noticed needed attention. My car is running so smooth now — better than it has in a long time! They truly went above and beyond to help me out, and I’m so thankful I chose them. You can tell they really care about their customers and the quality of their work. Highly recommend.
Jim has been my trusted mechanic for a couple years now. He is always honest and realistic about what needs to be done with your vehicle and how much it’s going to cost. His rates are more than fair and beyond worth it for the quality of service you receive. Car troubles are no fun, but Jim makes the process as good as it can be. He’s worked on multiple vehicles of ours, and his repairs and service have always been effective. I’d recommend Jim’s Auto to anyone.
I had been to a couple other shops and been done wrong, never fixing the problem AND creating problems I never had beforehand….. Jim took his time with diagnostics & figuring out it was a bad intake gasket on one truck, then a rear main on another. Two major problems on two different vehicles that was fixed right the first time in a reasonable time…… Thanks Jim for working with me and will most definitely return for other work we’ve talked about
Jim done a good job on my vehicle a couple of years ago brakes, transmission leak/seal, , oil leak/front seal, etc. I Have no problems taking my vehicle to him in the future.
It appears that this shop over-inflates their labor hours at the discretion of the owner. Mechanic checked the truck quickly, which led to an $80 diagnostic fee for a labor "hour" (that took all of about 3 minutes). He said it needed a new water pump and "we can probably get that done in a couple hours." Then he called (I assume) the owner, who created a quote with 5 labor hours. When I asked about the discrepancy of 5 hours vs. a couple hours and mentioned having one a few years prior that only took "a couple hours," he doubled down and said, "it'll take every bit of 5 hours." So I left (after they demanded $80), took it to a shop about 10 miles away, and saved around $300, because that shop used the true labor hours (2.7 hours, or about what the original mechanic said it would take - bef
