Mike and his crew are top notch! As everything in life has gotten more expensive over the last three years, it's nice to know I'll get great service and reasonable pricing from John's Automotive! I've lived in this neighborhood, Bascom and Whitethorne for almost 30 years and I've been taking cars there for 20 years! Thanks John and Mike! Rick Weingart

I worked with Mike to get my truck taken care of and he was very helpful and friendly. He was timely with his response and I thought the prices were very fair.

Just called and spoke to Mike (John's son) wanted to charge me $180 just to look at the car. Not an honest or nice guy in my opinion.

When i went to pick it up this time they said it had no prob... read more
