We have been going to John's Auto for years. We are very satisfied with the work they have performed on our cars. They are very honest, which puts us at ease. Finding someone you can trust with your car is priceless. read more

I would recommend John's to all of my friends and family. Honest, fair and complete customer service!

Best father and son combo in the area! Great service and prices. Will not over charge or take advantage of the situation. Honest and trustworthy. Won my business! read more

Just had my vintage Lincoln worked on at John's and I am so pleased with the work. John fixed both the front and rear end leaks and had the job completed two days sooner than what we originally discussed. By far the best and most competent mechanic in the area. I will continue to travel down to see John for my car maintenance needs. read more

My nightmare is over, after four trips to the Chevy dealer to find what was causing the check engine light to come on and $2500 in the hole I went to John's. in a couple of hours he found the problem, a simple fix. He even kept the truck for the rest of the day to make sure and Ipicked it up the next day. I was recommended to see John and now I fully recommend John's auto repair. Very knowledgeable, friendly and reasonable, what a relief to have a good mechanic you can rely on. Thanks John and Johnny. Joe, Monee read more

We've been coming to John's for about 6 years and are very glad we found his shop. He is very honest and thorough in his work. He looks over the whole vehicle as if it were his own. He goes the extra mile in making sure our daughter's car is safe for traveling back and forth from Michigan. We would not take our cars any place else! Thanks John and Johnny! read more

My car was having issues running, was running rough. My mom was borrowing my car when it happened. When she got home, I took it for a short drive and while doing so, the engine light came on. I called my usual mechanic and was told they couldn't get me in for two weeks. Since I'm the only one in my home with a running vehicle, that timeline wasn't going to work for me. I like to use local small businesses. I like to support my community. I did a search for shops near my home and found John's. I called and told them the situation. I was able to arrange for towing and drop off without me actually having to be there. My car was dropped off about 3:30pm. Before 5pm, I got a call letting me know they did the diagnostic on my car. They texted a link to a detailed report/diagnostic report about my car, including pictures of the things they found that needed attention. It's quite a nice change of pace to not be treated like I'm ignorant of automotive issues just because I'm a woman. I talked with John (I'm assuming Jr.) that evening and gave the go ahead for my repairs. They started and completed the repairs the following day. When they called to let me know the work was complete, I spoke with John again and was able to pay for repairs over the phone as I didn't have a ride to get me there before day's end. We had a conversation about the report that they sent me letting me know of things that needed to be addressed in the future. My car is 17 years old with 205k miles and while I take care of the regular maintenance work regularly, he was able to recommend, at my request, what should be addressed next and he gave me a quote. I've found my new shop. John was extremely helpful and friendly. I feel the prices I was quoted were well in line and even less than what I expected. I would absolutely recommend this shop to anyone looking for affordable work with honest people. They accommodated me in every way. If you're looking for a great place, this is it. read more

This is where we bring both of our cars and our motor home whenever we need a repair. We moved here from out of state a few years ago and tried several places before finding John's. Every other place we tried would try to tack on additional things that don't actually need to be done. This is the only place that will actually tell you what really has to be done and not try to pad their pockets. They can also get you in right away if something is time sensitive. read more

Best service around! Me family has been using John's Auto Service for years, and they're always very pleasant and accommodating ...with fair pricing! Highly recommend. read more

John's auto is great. Prompt service, work completed right the first time. I would use them for any service needs.

I've been coming to John for many years and have always found him to be friendly, knowledgeable and honest. He doesn't do work that doesn't need to be done. I recommend him without reservation. read more

Great job on my antique car and fast, fair and friendly service! John was very knowledgeable regarding my vehicle and took care of things that we didn't even notice. read more

I'd like to preface this by stating that never in my life have I written a Yelp review, but this experience is one that I would like to share in the hopes that John's Auto will see it and consider its content when making changes to better themselves. My boyfriend's car stalled out three times on his way home from work at 3:00 a.m. a couple of weeks ago, and going off of the recommendation of a friend we had it towed here. We were told on top of the $75 tow (which is the flat price for the area), we would have to pay $130 for them to perform the diagnostic. This immediately made no sense to me, as their diagnostic was connecting their reader to the car's computer and receiving codes. I have never heard of an auto repair shop charging to plug themselves into a computer. But alas, we had already towed it there, so there was no negotiating. After two days, we were told that aside from a frayed negative cord (I think it was called, which they didn't even actually replace but charged us), there was nothing they could see that made it stall out so much and that it runs fine now. $200 later and we had our car back. Flash to a week later, where the car again stalled and stopped running on a major street in Homewood near the expressway. I mean seriously? There was nothing wrong with it after your $130 "inspection"? I hate using passive aggressive quotation marks, but come on. Ignoring previous recommendations, we had our car towed to our usual auto shop, which we didn't use before because of their hours being shorter. After a few hours of looking at the car, they found the issue and fixed it within the day without charging to diagnose the problem. It's not John's Auto's inability to diagnose the car that I'm upset about, it's the clear taking advantage of someone that cannot take their car to someone else because it isn't drive-able. You should not be charging to diagnose a car, especially if you haven't even taken the time to really diagnose! I will never come back to this establishment, which makes me sad because I love to support local businesses. read more

I brought my 1979 Trans am to Johns Auto Service for carb and A.C. service. It is so nice to see someone like John who really cares and knows how old cars work. John is a car guy himself and treats cars he is working on as if it was his own. Thanks John the Quadrajet is running like new and the A. C. is cold . Great job. Richard Hasty read more

Honest, smart, friendly, efficient, and affordable service. I wouldn't go anyplace else. I used to have work done by the dealer. Chrysler dealer charged almost $2K to fix a/c. Months later it didn't work and dealer wanted another $1200 to fix it. John fixed it perfectly..for $140! The problem was misdiagnosed by the dealer and John saved me a bundle. read more

I brought my car into Johns for a third opinion regarding a problem which was diagnosed differently at two other shops. John found the problem to be engine mounts and began the repair however, after replacing the rear mount he noticed the front was in better condition than originally thought. Rather than installing the part and charging me he called and told me it was not needed. Not only was the work completed in a timely manner, Johns honesty will bring me back for future repairs. read more

I had to have my brake pads and rotors replaced. I used to take my car to the dealer but after years of shoddy service I decided to try a neighborhood shop. I've always drove past John's for years and figured since they've been in business for so many years they must be reputable. The owner, John, did not disappoint. I was able to schedule an appointment the next day and the price was very reasonable. John was friendly and accommodating. A week later my new brakes were squeaking and John said to bring it in and he'd look at them. He ended up replacing the rotors just to ease my mind. It took less than an hour and he didn't charge me. Very happy and will definitely be back for future repairs. read more

I have nothing but good things to say about johns auto services, they provide excellent customer service and even better quality of craftsmanship. I dropped my truck off for a week when I was out of town and they built me a completely new exhaust from scratch. John and his son when above and beyond with their services. You couldn't beat their affordable prices or quality of work. I would highly recommend taking your car here, they go above and beyond to provide the best services possible. read more

John's Auto is the only car repair shop that I will take my vehicles too. I have been going there for the past 8 years. I even drive from New Lenox to Homewood for my oil changes. John is competent and fair. He only fixes what needs to be fixed, and warns me if other parts are going to break soon. His prices are reasonable. I have never found that he has overcharged me or anyone else for a repair. I have also never known him to not be able to diagnose or fix a problem that I am having. I have driven beaters my entire life, and John has always kept them running. He also always gets me in within a day or two when there is a problem. I have never had to wait, which happens often at other shops. I cannot say enough positive things about this shop! read more
