Jody, the mechanic, is a con-artist. He claims to spend hours working on your car, but it is evident that he just says so. He overcharges all his customers. It is best to stay away from his auto (dis)service. Also, he is a very rude and crass person. I found this online. Based on Yelp reviews, Jody's Auto in Raceland, LA, has faced serious customer complaints alleging overcharging, rude behavior, and potentially unnecessary repairs, with reports of up to in warranty fees and high costs for service.

I have mixed feelings about Jody's. On one hand he's saved me twice when I had a flat. On the other hand, he's not friendly. AT ALL. He's actually bordering on rude. I mean the last time he gave me he yelled at me. Then I went back in to get an oil change and an estimate in tires and he told me that to get an oil change I had to shore up at 8 am. He wouldn't make an appointment. Doesn't he want my business/money? I just don't know what to say, read more

Stay away from Jody's Auto. You want to be scammed out of money then be sure to stop in and let him charge you for work he will not do. Last year, he was paid for his labor and the parts for rear calipers on a Honda civic in addition to some other work needing to be done. Guess what-the calipers were never replaced. I got new ones and changed them myself. Jody is a fraud and has the worst attitude on the bayou.

This man took full advantage of me because I was a woman, I brought my truck to him because I trusted him and his shop but he charged me an arm an a leg to change a gasket and timing belt!!! My car only lasted a week and when I brought it back It was running worst than when I brought it in!! He told me he couldn't do nothing with it and my motor is bad!! He did that to my car!! And I could not drive it without it sounding like a tractor after all my spark plugs and new manifold was placed on!! I will never trust this man Joey ever again!! He treated me so bad when I came back to see why my car was running bad after he fixed on it!! He was real rude and I guess he just wanted my money because I saw a different to him that day!! I'm still without a vehicle til this day!' Don't know who to trust under my hood!! Maybe he' s prejudice, maybe he misjudged me, but I deserve the same treatment as every else!!!! GOD DOES NOT SLEEP!!! PS think twice before you let anyone touch your vehicle!! I forgive you!! But never again!!! read more
