See all

Great service, knowledgeable and fair priced. I will continue to take my cars there for everything and gladly recommend again and again.

They are 3 times costlier than the dealer. The quality of the work also very bad. I had very bad experience. Please check the price outside and decide. read more

Amazing, honest business! Eager to help me get all I needed done for my smog with my older car. I highly recommend them! Such nice people, who went out of their way to help. read more

This was one of the worst experiences ever. I went there because of YELP reviews, AAA approved and being a neighborhood person. I was ripped off for my lights to be reconditioned (twice as much as other people charge, but I should have done my homework first, so my bad I guess) They "juiced" my insurance until the car was declared a salvage, and they replaced the bad engine with another bad engine. My problems got worse there, not better. I'm on my third engine now. My car was also damaged while in Brad and his wife's care and they denied it, blaming the tow truck driver who they accepted the car from, and never told me as if I wouldn't notice that my car was completely dented. If you go here, don't say that you weren't warned first! Very disappointed, they seemed like nice knowledgeable couple/local business. Be aware, do not fall for it!!! read more

Went in for an oil change finding out that two belts + tires needed to be replaced. Tires were at the point of being distrustful with the damage they accumulated. With a road trip fast approaching I'm very happy that these problems were brought to light. Sue the front desk attendant was super helpful calling in and ordering specialty parts and finding a plossible tire replacement solution. She was having a super busy day and people were not giving her any breaks, some being obnoxious and rude. I hope anyone else that needs repairs to their car takes thought on the great personal and technical services I acquired. read more

My Acura was making a front end noise and I wasn't sure what it was. My vehicle was quickly diagnosed by a mechanic at BJ's auto repair! They actually managed to save me money and I was grateful! My vehicle is running well and I am happy with the service that I received! read more

BJ's name should be changed to BS. He claimed to have installed a OEM part in my car and I verified that it was in fact "after market". The OEM part is cheaper than the part he installed. I asked him point blank, where did you get the part? He stated through the dealership (in other words he lied). I am not the first person he has done this too, nor will I be the last. He likes to pad the bill - so watch out. Never again! read more

Knowledgable and friendly, BJs is the best at trouble shooting and isolating my cars issues. They take the time to really explain the problem, give me the repair options, and they consistently provide top notch work. I actually live in Northern California, but visit my family in Simi Valley often and they have been faithful BJs customers for years. When I visit, I make a point to stop by for an oil change or whatever else is needed. They don't try to sell me things I don't want or need, which is important to me and its also a big reason I keep coming back. read more

Very honest, great place to take your car. Found them on yelp, AAA approved, will go back.

Great service. Finished up oil change ahead of schedule since they knew I was in a hurry.

Hey all.....this will be my 2nd time in telling you all about this outstanding automotive repair shop. Every once in a while a company comes along and surprises the heck out of ya. I am a very selective and picky man in my SUV and all other aspects in my life. I was referred to BJ's because I was in Smog jail as I would call it. I have an infinity 97 QX4 and my service light was on. And after Brad and Nathan and his team there were able to take care of it, and finally I was granted early release. I also know at times I can be a bit of a smart allick but I do mean it all in good fun, and these guys tolerated me, thank you and I am blessed with that. Brad and his team took care of my challenge. So would I recommend them to all other's 150 % yes. So if you looking for a automotive repair place that really cares, don't even think twice go see these good down to earth folks. And when you do give them a shout out a women will answer her name is Sue at times that she is extremity kind, helpful, and good nature, So bottom line it is also a family owned and operated business. read more

GREAT service!!! Our car broke down on the way to Simi Valley so we called BJ. Nicely, he said he will fixed as long as he could find the car part. Unfortynately, the part couldn't be found anywhere. However, he tried really hard to find it. Finally, he found the part, but it was 45 mins. (One way) away from Simi Valley. He decided to send one of his employees to that place to get the part so that we could drive back the same day. The car was fixed in about 2 hours so we were able to drive back home safe. Both, the wife and husband were professional and nice with us. I definitely recommend BJ'S business. read more

I'm always happy with the service at BJ's auto. Brad and Sue are honest, fair, and always manage to squeeze me in for a last minute appointment. I've been taking my car to them for years, and even after moving out of the area drive over an hour to their shop for my regular service. I highly recommend them! read more

Don't recommend this place if you have a foreign car. They aren't as knowledgable. Costumer service was good and they really wanted to help me. However; they misdiagnosed my car and I still had to pay $150. read more

My family and I have been going to BJ's since they were in the Reseda location. 3 cars and 15 years later, I am still a happy customer. I was even making the drive from West LA to Simi after they moved because Brad is the only person I trust when it comes to my car. He is honest and gives you options (with price ranges & explanations) on what can be done to fix any issue you may have....pretty refreshing! I highly recommend BJ's. read more

I love BJ's Automotive! I have been coming here for years! Super friendly and honest! I recommend all my friends and family to go here. I drive from Huntington Beach which is about 70 miles from here to get my car fixed and tuned. Wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

The very best service, very best price, very best people. You can trust Brad and Sue and feel safe in their hands. My 13 year old car runs like a dream thanks to them. I'm a member of their family forever. read more

Great service by knowledgable technicians has brought me here for over 10 years. Brad and Sue have always taken amazing care of me and my families vehicles. They are the best auto repair facility in Simi! read more

First time customer and will be a repeat! BJ's Automotive customer service is amazing and they definitely go above and beyond to make sure you understand the services they have performed on your vehicle. I went in to have my rotors/brakes checked and my rotors ended up needing to be re-machined. When I came to pick up my car, Brad explained that when my brakes need to be replaced, so will the rotors. Good to know for next time so I'll be prepared! I went to drive off to work and noticed they had left a nice and cold water bottle in the car for me. This place is amazing and I definitely appreciate their honesty and wonderful customer service. read more

About 12 years ago my husband was the first customer at Bj's. Unfortunately, we moved to Valencia. After nightmare mechanics in our area we will drive the hour to visit BJ's and Brad and Kyle. They are thorough, honest and wonderful communicators. They make the "foreign car language" understandable! They also saved us $700 from what we were quoted. They are AAA Recommended which means as a AAA MEMBER I save! We will always go to BJs now! And I highly recommend them! read more

We wouldn't go elsewhere! Personal service, and they are always so helpful. Reasonable prices and a good honest shop. All things that are hard to find now a days! read more

If you want excellent customer service, super nice people and a place where you can trust that they have your best interest in place - go see Brad and Sue! read more

My family's been coming here with their cars for years and had great service every time! Taking my car in for its first oil change today and they made it really easy to understand the service I need. They're quick but thorough, and I'm out in less than an hour! read more

Helpful and knowledgeable staff. Went in for an oil change and check up and will definitely come back

BJ's was amazing. Went there for the first time today to get my A/C fixed, and they were quick to get back to me after I dropped it off. They did a complete A/C service and found the problem, and explained to it me so that I could understand it (I know next to nothing about cars). They also let me know that I needed an oil change ASAP, and knocked $10 off when I asked them to do it since my car was already there. They were completely understanding despite my hemming and hawing. BJ's has become my go-to car care shop! read more

Always awesome service! It's hard to find a mechanic you can trust and BJs has always been great to us!

I just moved back to Ventura County. There is no one I trust more to take care of my car repairs than BJ's Automotive. When I previously lived here they took care of my previous car repairs. As a woman I know they will always make sure my car is in good running condition. As a sales representative that is the peace of mind I need when traveling the highways of Southern California. read more

We drove down to Simi Valley from San Jose and our car broke down. We told BJ we were trying to drive back to San Jose that same day. He didn't have the part needed to fix the car but he was able to find it at a different location. He sent one of his guys to get the part 45 min away. (1 1/2 RT) We were back on the road in two hours. Definitely saved the day! read more

I needed an oil change and a smog certification and got an appointment right away! Quick, friendly service and they have wi-fi in the waiting area Will definitely be returning! read more

Came in for a smog test. Awesome, quick service! Very friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be back for my car needs!

Always have had great service at BJ's. Friendly and courtesy staff. Highly recommend.

Ive been coming to bjs automotive since i purchased my first car in 2014. The staff is super friendly and i get my car in and out! I would highly recommend this place!! read more

Awesome business. I have 200,000 miles on my Suburban. They take such good care of my car. Very honest and professional. Brad and Sue are the best. read more

a while ago we bought a used truck and took it to BJ's auto repair to get a minor issue fixed. the staff is very friendly and very knowledgeable. they are not pushy and do a great job. read more

Came in to get my car smogged and they were awesome! Great customer service and very friendly staff. I recommend everyone to come here for their automotive needs! They are quick and very knowledgable! read more

Brad and Sue have a quality business and great customer service! I just started taking my vehicles here at a friends recommendation and i couldn't be happier with the service i received. Friendly, honest people and fast service with no mistakes. Brad went the extra mile to diagnos an issue with one of my cars and repair it for a great price. I usually work on my own cars but with multiple jobs i dont really have the time so i am very picky with the shops i take my cars to, and i can truely say i wont go anywhere else. read more

I went in for front wheel bearings on my 98 Honda. He told me I needed $3000 new transmission. I brought my car elsewhere and indeed it was the front wheel bearings. I have since spoke with BJs and they returned my diagnostic fee and apologized for the mistake. read more

I was referred to this place by a fellow Co-worker. I made the drive from Venice beach because of the amazingly positive review I received from my friend. I went there this weekend to fix a light that went out on my car Nissan Maxima. The owners Sue and Brad were so sweet, and they really know how to treat their customers. They also looked at my brakes and suggested I have the rotors and brake pads replaced. So I went ahead and I got a very good price on the whole job. They were very honest and they even stayed an hour after they are supposed to close on a Saturday. They really wanted to have me set up. They worked so efficiently and they even took the time to explain what they were doing and took me through the options I had in order to decide what worked for me best. Definitely felt like they were seeing what was best for me and not best for their shop like a lot of other mechanics have done to me in the past. I've had such bad luck with mechanics in the past and I really recommend visiting them. Like I said I live in Venice beach and I'm more than willing to take the drive to have professional work done to my car .I've referred my family members and I rarely write reviews on yelp but I felt like I should share my experience. Thank you all at BJs automotive for your expertise and magnificent customer service! See you again soon but hopefully not too soon haha! read more

brad and sue have always been honest and given me repair options from ideal to get it back on the road. i had recently brought my car in because it just stopped running. turns out the engine had seized. instead of just handing me a hefty repair quote. he took the time to call the dealer and find out that the car would be covered for repairs under a recall which otherwise would have cost me 10,000 to repair OUCH!. read more
