They were generous with their time and expertise even though they did not handle our type of tire. They even gave me a rose when we left!!! Very nice

I would recommend Johnnys over and over! My daughter is in the area for college and her fuel pump went out. I am 6 hours away. As a Father that is a helpless feeling because I am not there to fix the problem! 1 call to Johnnys . Tow was set up and at the shop within the hour. Soon there after the texts with the diagnosis,pics and detailed parts list and labor cost. Parts ordered. Great service! The best part is the care and compassion that Rebecca gave me. The feeling I got was like "Hey! We got you. Your daughter will be taken care of" That's Super Service! Thank you! Joey F.

Excellent Service at Johnny’s Automotive! I had a great experience with Johnny’s Automotive! They provided excellent service for my 2003 Honda Accord, and I’m very satisfied with the work they performed. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to doing a good job really stood out. It’s not always easy to find an automotive shop you can trust, but I truly appreciate the service I received. They took care of my vehicle, and I’m grateful for their hard work and dedication. If you’re looking for a reliable automotive shop that takes pride in its work and treats customers right, I highly recommend Johnny’s Automotive. I’ll definitely keep them in mind for my future automotive needs! Thank you, Johnny’s Automotive, for the outstanding service! 🚗🔧👏

All I can say is WOW. Amazing team, incredible service. After a dealership quoted me thousands they got my beloved chariot back on the road at a fraction of the cost. Was also greeted with a beautiful rose on my dash at pick up. Thank you. A+ y’all are doing it right!!!!!

Again Johnny's rewarded my trust in them. The car had developed a coolant leak, it was manageable but getting worse and would eventually totally fail at the worst possible time. They were able to get me in the afternoon I called and got a loaner. Next day I had my car back fixed. They have always worked with my weird schedule, and the work has always been excellent.
