“Absolutely the best auto technicians out there and they stand behind their work. They can fix almost anything and always offer the best solution without trying to upsell.”
“I normally only got my oil changed with a competitor. They are closer to my home and it’s a quick ins and out.
Until I needed my oil changed on a Sunday and they were all closed. Take 5 was further away but opened so I checked them out. They greeted me then offered me a water right away.
The entry way is kind of tight and narrow but other than that I felt like they rolled out the red carpet for me.
They didn’t try to add on anything and asked if I needed anything else after the service.
Even washed my windshield!
Since then I’ve returned to receive my royal treatment.”

“Since the flex pipe repair was done, I’ve had no problems and it was done maybe 18 mos to two years ago. The shop I usually go to in my area gave me an estimate so much greater than Jax.
I just had a new back-up camera installed at Jax and it is better & clearer than the camera installed at the factory. Thank you, Jax, your work has been exceptional!”
“I appreciate how thorough the mechanics are. They let me know what they recommend so I can make informed decisions. This helps me stay on top of repairs and know my car is in good working condition.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding service — every single time
I’ve been a regular customer of John’s Complete Auto Service for a long time, and I can honestly say they’re one of the best shops I’ve ever worked with. I’m not an occasional walk-in—I’m a high-maintenance customer with multiple vehicles, and they’ve handled everything from mechanical issues, tire blowouts, and electrical problems to getting my A/C back up and running on a 90-degree summer day.
No matter what I bring to them, they always make it work.
They’re busy (which is a good sign), but they still treat me like my business matters. They’re professional, grateful for the work, and genuinely appreciative of their customers—something you don’t always see anymore. Most people only write reviews when they’re upset, so I wanted to take the time to share a positive experience and give credit where it’s due.
This is a quality, trustworthy shop, and I couldn’t be happier with the service I’ve received. Highly recommend.”
“Called discount tire first. The quoted me $280 to mount and balance 4 tires that I supplied. Then I called AutoTech. They quoted me $130, obviously I went there. Then they asked me if I wanted the alignment, yup! Not gonna screw up $1100 worth of tires over $130! Total bill… $263! Thanks AutoTech.”

“I went to their open house 10/18/25, and everyone treated me like they already knew me. All of the employees are passionate about their work, and they even mounted my tires, welded my exhaust, and shined my tires for free. If you have a saab or a volvo, take it here. You will get a quality job and probably make some friends.”

“When I walk into Manfred, it's clear that Bruce knows what is going on. He has done it all a thousand times. And he is personally invested in the outcome. He wants to do it right the first time.
When I used to walk into the dealerships, I never got that feeling. It was HOPE for the best and pay 35% more.
I moved to Iowa this month. Will I return to Manfred and Bruce for service? Yes, I will.
Also, they work with you on scheduling. They know you. It's a family run business.”
