Matthew was a great help in diagnosing and recharging my air conditioner and he replaced my 2 remote keyless entries for me. Follow up calls were great. Explanations were great. Driving me home and picking me up were great accomodations. I hope I can get my trunk lid repaired soon too. Waiting for pricing. Thank you Matt!🙂
Rick was extremely helpful and reached out with updates. I would recommend this place to others.

Dave is the Best! He is friendly and knowledgeable. I had a last minute, oh I forgot to ask if you could and without a doubt. He said, no problem, we'll take care of it. Very thorough. Will not take my car anywhere else but John's Automotive.

My overall experience with John's Automotive were excellent. He told me that I needed to leave the car with them to do a diagnostic test on my 05 Toyota Camry XLE to see what repair needed to fix on the car so I did.

I had a great first experience with this shop. Dawn was consistently in communication with me about my car. It was great to meet the mechanic, Tony, and explained the problem. My car was back to me in a day with the 3 problems resolved. A thank you to John’s Auto care in Grantville!
