Vehicle Inspection at Johnny's Automotive

This visit was my first and it definitely will not be my last. I have chosen to keep my car rather than trade it in every couple of years as I used to do. My check engine light came on and of course that means a lot of money out-of-pocket to repair the car. I found after a search on Google Johnny’s Automotive and the reviews were great. From the moment of my first call to them through yesterday was such an Stress-free experience. Two issues engine, check light and low tire pressure. They diagnosed it as an evaporator leak and that would require a smoke test costing over $200. The technician asked me about what I was doing when the light came on and I told him I had pump gas in the car. He began asking me a series of questions and he says OK. Let me look at a few things. We may have to do the test but I think maybe it might not be as bad as we think. He came back in a little later and said I think it’s the fact that you did not twist your gas cap on your car and it was just sitting there on top. He said I turned the check engine light on. It’s been running. The engine light has not come back on and rather than go to the expense of a test if you get in it and the light comes back on turn around come back. I said OK he said, but you have another problem and that is there is where on your tires and I was puzzled by that because the tires were not that old they had been on the car about a year the back tires were fine. The front tires were not long story short the tires that I had purchased and trusted a fine automotive store was manufactured in 2021 I bought them in 2026. In June I had a very high car repair at a major dealership. And they told me my cabin filter needed to be replaced and I said go ahead and replace it. When there’s no way in four months that could have been that dirty. I went in for two issues and because I am responsible only for myself they did an inspection of the car. Everything else was fine and I have driven the car now for 15 or so miles and the engine light is still off as of yesterday I will be not going to any dealership and I will not be going to my trusted auto shop that I have patronized for 10 years the staff at Johnny’s automotive are honest, kind, considerate, and knowledgeable.

I used Johnny’s for my pre-purchase inspection on a used vehicle. Ron was incredibly kind and helpful, shared expertise on how to best maintain my car, and was a pleasure to work with.

Johnny’s automotive was wonderful! I had Aaron do an inspection on a car and he did a great job! Very thorough and answered all my questions. The employees are respectful, kind, and very accommodating! The service there is unbeatable! I highly recommend Johnny’s!

I went in for a trip check and to see why my check engine light was on and I was blown away by their kindness and professionalism! Thank you to the whole crew for getting me to Georgia and back safely!!!

I was on my way home to West Palm Beach from Clearwater when lights on my dash started shining. I tried 2 other places, one was sketchy, and the other didn't have a technician. I pulled into Johnny's hoping for help. The Technician came right out to my car to run a scan on it. It wasn't good, he ran it again to be sure, but he assured me that I could make it back home without any major issues and I should have it looked at when I get home. He didn't even charge me! I was relieved to make it home with my kids in tow. You don't see this kindness in the big cities. Thank you, Johnny's! I did make it home and taking my car in first thing tomorrow. I appreciate your care and honesty.
