If you're needing repairs on your car STAY AWAY!!!! From John's Garage in Yucca Valley, California ... Especially if you're a Woman! I was over charged and my car was still having the same problems so I had to take my car to another mechanic and my car is in good working order now. They Charged me with no proof of any work being done on my car. read more

John's garage is the best!!! They squeezed me in on a busy day as I was leaving town about to travel several hours south to San Diego. The rear brake cable was loose and dragging perilously low to the ground. John fixed the bracket that had been crunched and reattached the cable. Very important. Thanks John!!! read more

got my truck towed over to John's garage with in 1 day it was ready for pick up and it was a transmission swap!! yes guys 1 day !! it was done and reasonable price! never will go anywhere else read more

Brought my car in to them for 4 new tires. The process itself was smooth, and the work was done in a very reasonable time, as they promised. I found the price of $ 103.00 for tire installation sort of high, but went with them nevertheless, as I believe ein " you get what you pay for". Well, not in this case. when I picked up my car, the inner door handle was pitch black from dirty mechanics hands, and there was a giant foot print of black grease on the driver door mat. My car has a very light leather interior... Plus 2 of the 4 valve caps were not installed. I had posed some questions when I dropped off the vehicle, but the lady at reception just said " oh no, they never checked that out...". So while there are 4 nice new tires on my car now, ( from tirerack.com) the fact is that I have to scrub my floor mat to clean off the greasy foot print, and also clean the door panel and it's handle from greasy paws and knuckles. To me thats a definite sign of disrespect and lack of appreciation for clients cars and property. I had hoped to have found place to return to over and over, but this definitely isn't it. read more

I brought my Jeep in due to the "check engine" warning light being on. I needed it fixed in order to get a smog check for the new purchase/registration. The first time they said it was checked, and that the "02 sensor" needed replacement. I authorized it, but the check engine light came on again, a few miles on the way home. Brought it back , now they insisted it was yet another "sensor," and guess what? The light came on again a few miles later. Back again, now they insisted that the diagnosis is that the transmission is failing.....it would be over $2000. Well having spent hundred's of dollars FOR NOTHING already, was not quite THAT STUPID to believe them any longer. I made a gift of the Jeep to my son back in Georgia (they do not require a smog check) and he drove the car with that light on, yes, for well over a year before he sold it. BEWARE of John's, and esp. that sweet-talkin' front man (little girl) at the front desk. I hope they pay her well, and they all are able to sleep at night! Karma is a bitch! read more

I can't thank you enough for all the help! GW came to our rescue after our trunk broke in Joshua Tree National park. We thought we would be driving back to LA with a bungee cord around it, but thanks to John's Auto Garage we were able to get it shut and drive home. GW patiently tinkered with the trunk even though we showed up in last minutes of the auto shop being opened. Amazing service! read more

Do not under any circumstances bring your vehicle to johns garage in yucca valley. Had them do a motor replacement took them 6 weeks and 5 return trips and it is still not right. They have no compassion for their customers let alone for the vehicles they service. The level of Incompetence is overwhelming absolutely incredible how horrible they are. 1-27-21 save yourself before it to late read more

Rave:. John's garage. The first honest mechanic who didn't take me for my money and valued my business with genuine integrity. Finally got the answer about what is wrong with my van. (Blown head) they didn't try to b.s. and bandaid the true problem like the last 5 mechanics I've taken it too. Thousands of dollars later and all I had to do was bring it here. Especially the lady who works the desk. She really knows her stuff!!! Thank you. Not so thrilled with the fact my van is really broken but beyond thrilled that I have a true answer to why it overheats. Even more than that when my father in law was here he got a flat tire. Many of the other companies either didn't have a tire or time and were very rude. John's garage had him back on the road safely in less than an hour despite how busy they were ensuring all their customers got the best care. read more

Stopped in to get the air conditioner in my truck checked out. The young lady at the front desk quickly got my truck in the back and looked at. It was a bit of a wait, but she kept me updated throughout the whole process, even as she was fielding phone calls and helping other customers who walked in with their own car troubles. Luckily I just needed a new relay, but they didn't have any in stock. They went ahead and called around to other shops and found one nearby and the other shop delivered the part right over and I was on my way. read more

I would trust John's with my car again if I needed to. As an out-of-towner with car problems I was looking for a trusty mechanic. A local recommended John's. John talked me through the issues my truck was having, explained the fixes and patiently answered all my questions. He warned me I would need to replace two parts but that I would be able to make it home to my mechanic if he just fixed the urgent issue, which was appreciated. They fixed the issue and quickly sent me on my way. They were excellent. read more

I had another great experience at J and G. It is great to be able to trust your auto shop. I left $400 cash and asked them do fix anything they could find while I went rock climbing. My total bill for oil change, tune up, electrical repair , and thorough check up was $84 including parts.. Stellar shop. read more

I only needed a used trailer tire but dag gone these guys impressed me! Very friendly and courteous on the phone and in person. The tire new is around $120 and they sold me a really nice used one, mounted and balanced for $40. They even took it out of my truck and put it back in. Excellent customer service and super fast! I would definitely use them again and recommend their services to friends and family. read more

Just had a set of tires fitted here. Fast friendly service and at prices that can't be beaten! Nice air conditioned waiting room too! Big thanks to the beautiful Ashley and Caleb! read more

I love this place the fastest and most professional place for oil changes and vehical work i took my truck in for some new cv axles because they snapped and a differential oil change was only in there for 2 hours and they even gave me a drink i highly recommend them read more

My boyfriend and I have been coming here for nearly two years. They take care of all three of our cars. Ashley at the front desk is super friendly and helpful. They are honest and fair priced. As long as we live in the area, we will continue to come here. read more

Johns garage rocks! $20 bucks for an oil change! I was back down the road in less than 30 mins! Thanks again!

I just left Johns Garage. I am a 61 year old woman with a Chevy Suburban. We had hooked up a trailer to our truck and the brake lights had stopped working. I had suspected it was a fuse, and when we had looked in the fuse box the spots that were supposed to house this fuse were empty. Anyway, Johns found the blown fuse and replaced it. They charged me $89 for the "diagnosis" and $6.99 for the 20 amp fuse. The fuses are an .80 cent item from O'Reilly, and they had the the truck for a total of 15 minutes. The total bill for replacing a fuse was $96.60. We have been coming to them with all of our automotive needs for the past three years that we have lived in Yucca Valley, but now we are done with that. They obviously do not need our business. We are going to give Woods a shot. read more

Most excellent service. Repair was done in a very timely manner. Best place in town I have been too. They really know what they are doing and never have done what a lot of shops do and tell me I need to fix something that wasn't necessary. read more

Johns garage has always saved me when im stranded and always helps me when im in a bind. John is honest and has compassion when it comes to knowing how to keep you from emptying your pockets and still getting the best work . They are nice about helping you if you are stuck , and have no problems with having the kids waiting which is rare . Even if they are swamped busy they will always fit you in . read more

All employees here are very nice and helpful. They closed at 2PM one day that my tire had blew and I had a nail in each of my back tires. I miss you car got towed there right before two, they fixed it up and gave me a great deal on two new/used tires and two patches. I was very grateful for that. They had complimentary coffee, soda, and water. I'd completely recommend to go to this location if you have any tire problems. I will definitely be going back again. Also, they had a wide variety of tires, I have special tires and they even had plenty of those, Versus other tire shops not having them at all. This place is a 10/10 totally recommend. Thank you for everything you all do, and for all the kind customer service! read more

If i could give john 1000 stars i would. Met John about 6 years cuz i moved here from Orange County and I needed a good dependable mechanic that I could trust. Hes fixed my car for these 6 years and given me security and ended up being a good friend.. Very kind man, righteous dude. I highly recommend John's garage to anyone that wants their car worked on correctly. read more

Straight forward, patient, and overall did an awesome job repairing my AC. It's hard to find a trustworthy and honest auto shop here in the desert. I had a great experience! read more

Took my car here for a busted cv axel. Quoted the best price by far. Service was quick and honest. True to quoted time and price. But what makes it 5 star? Day after repair, the new axel blows out. Call the shop, they apologize a hundred times, offer to comp towing immediately, fix it very next morning no cost. That's customer service!!! read more

DO NOT under any circumstances use this repair shop for anything outside of adding fluids or exchanging old tires. Sat for 7 hours in the lobby while they "tried to figure out the issue." Unknown to me, their lack of abilities ended up being the reason that my brakes were "broken". They pumped so much air into my brake lines through their many techniques of fixing calipers, that they couldn't get ANY fluid out. After having my vehicle towed to another auto shop in Palms Springs, they explained to me under no circumstances should I ever return to J & G Garage. Joke's on me today, I paid over $100 to have them nearly bust my brake lines, and wasted 7 hours while they figured out how to do their job. Unbelievably incompetent in the easiest of tasks. DO NOT USE THIS SHOP. read more

Honest and competitively priced. Here's how I know; I pulled in with a radiator leak after being told by Jiffy Lube ( don't rely on them ) that my radiator was leaking from the bottom and probably needed replacing. John ( of J&G for George ) quickly identified the problem as being a loosened plastic plug and did not charge me a dime. I also mentioned that another shop in town ( Big O ) was going to charge me over a grand because of having to remove a manifold to have spark plugs replaced on my Toyota ( which I discovered later was not necessary because the plugs were fine and the air filter was the culprit ) and John said he'd charge around 600 dollars for replacing my spark plugs versus over 1200 that I was quoted at not only Big O but also Discount Tires. So I can say with confidence that these are the guys to use. read more

Terrible experience!!!My husband went to this place yesterday morning to replace his one worn out car tire.Mistake! he purchased a used tire.Note that he didn't use it at all yesterday till this morning. We went out to eat breakfast few blocks away from our house, to our dismayed we found out that the tire was deflated. Across the street where we had breakfast is an auto repair shop so we went there straight to had it checked. The mechanic showed him few bubles on the tire therefore he had the tire replaced with a new one instead. We went back today at John's Garage hoping maybe we could get at least 50% of the amount that we paid for. But we're told that there is no warranty for used tire even though it's been less than 24hrs for as long as the tire is good when you left the premises at that very moment. We were asked why we took out the tire??? I told them that should had we continue driving with that condition it might damage the car rim and that will cost us more. We are glad that this thing happened because we found a better place to go now. Surely we will never come back to that place again. I hope that this will serve as a lesson to everyone not to trust used tire. And please find an autoshop who's Not All for Money and who genuinely care for their customers. Guess what? That $20 is not worth it if you will loose future business of whole clan. read more

I have nothing but great things to say. Everyone that worked there was extremely helpful. Ashley was very nice and knowledgeable!!!! Being that my husband was deployed, they helped me as much as they could. I would highly recommend their services. read more

I really can't say enough about John and his guys. They've been doing the work on my 69 Camaro. After having other places tell me to buy a new engine and blah blah blah... they said don't. Just needed some tuning and other work. It's driving good now. Only going here for the rest of the repairs. And to top it off, I was sold a piece of junk truck that they are helping me with and not breaking my bank. Right now I'm penny pinching since I've got some extra bills from health crap and they still got my truck back on the road and let me split my payment up. Just overall good people doing what they love. read more

If you need any mechanical work done this is definitely the place to go! I've lived I'm the Morongo Basin for nearly 20 years and have had experience with most of the shops out here and J&G Garage is by far the best shop I have used. From the amazing and patient customer service they provide to the great work. All around top notch shop! I've gone to them for a variety of things to upkeep on my vehicle. Great prices! Oil changes, tires , heating and a/c and more . You name it and they do it ! read more

Best prices on quality used tires in the area period. Tried a few other places on my other vehicles and was charged about double of what I paid here and didn't have nearly as good tire and selection... Glad to find a shop up here that isn't into ripping people off... Fast and friendly service will definitely have my business for my next automotive repair needs read more

I LOVE EVERYONE HERE!!! John and staff are amazing they have integrity, honesty and compassion. I live in Palm Springs and still drive up to John's. I'm funny about my cars and I bring them ALL here including my beloved 2015 50 year Mustang. If you're looking for a reliable place you've found it, they take care of car and driver here. read more

John and his guys are the best. I drive across California to have him look at my vehicles because they are trustworthy and great mechanics.

I've taken a couple of my cars to John's in the past. And I needed to get my car's oil changed. I'm sitting there and they come out telling me I needed a new Air filter $25 fine I told them. Then they came out and told me my oil pan drain plug was stripped. Well if it was stripped they Stripped it taking it out cause it wasn't stripped the last time the oil was changed so they got me for some TEMPORARY Bolt that cost me $15 bucks when Autozone only charged $5 for a permanent one. And when I got home and parked my car 10 mins later Oil came running out of my car. I had to have a friend fix their screw-up and buy more oil and a new drain plug and clean the driveway. What should have cost me $45 wound up costing me $130.00 and a stained driveway. I think this BS is how that make extra money off people. The chick that works there was checking out my car when I 1st drove up and I asked her if there was a problem and she said ' Oh I thought your car's tire was going low until you parked it. Trying to find something else to charge me for. I may be 60 years old but I could already see what was going on. I should have followed my gut feeling and left. read more

Found our local mechanic! The owner of my car previously jury rigged some hardware attaching one of the rotors causing some metal on metal action, following the rotor replacement at John's Garage. The guys there had no issue with me coming back in so they could check it out and fixi the problem at no charge. We were in and out in less that 30 minutes. Thanks for the help guys. read more

Who would've thought that getting a flat tire was the best possible thing that could happen to me? But that's exactly what happened. In the process my toe truck attendant referred me to J and G garage to get a quote for a used tire. Said they had new and used tires had great prices and honest top-notch service and was the best place in town. So I called and found out I could get a used tire in great shape mounted balanced for $40. Then a couple days later I decided I wanted to just go ahead and replace all four tires new and they said I needed rear brakes as well. they gave me a price unbelievable that was less than half of what anywhere else was so thanks guys you just earned another customer for life. Oh, PS they even gave me the $40 credit back toward the new tires and brake job. Way to go guys you're the best read more

Great service and great prices. I highly recommend bringing your car or truck here for repair or maintenance. I got an oil change that was faster and cheaper than at Jiffy Lube. 5 stars. read more

I just wanted to thank John for helping me with my car not only did he give me a great deal on my tires but also helped me with a few more issues that my car had.. I had other garages quote me and Johns was half the price thank you for being honest.........My car runs great !!!!!!!!! read more

I have been using John's Tires ever since I moved to Yucca Valley. Today, I was disappointed, they did not have a used tire of the size I needed. So I made the mistake of going to a used tire store in Joshua Tree, where I was completely ripped off. I have always had good service and good value at John's and look forward to returning to them the next time I have a tire need. To the person who said that these reviews are made up by his friends or relatives, I am neither. read more

The garage refused to take responsibility when my truck's battery died on the way back from picking it up from John's Garage. They replaced the battery and terminals. They would not come and tow me and I had to get a taxi and abandon the vehicle. The next day I brought it to another local garage who fixed the truck properly. They try to charge you 90$ for a diagnostic for each area of repair which does not go towards further repairs just to tell you what is wrong. And the diagnostic they did for me was incorrect. read more
