I have been taking my truck and wifes SUV to J-Town for the last 6 months and J-Town is always honest and has great prices. Won't be going anywhere else except to J-Town. Thank you Trevor for everything and nice to have that comfort of having a local mechanic who you can trust with your car needs.

These guys are awesome! They fixed my car when the insurance company said it was totaled, for less than half of the totaled price.

Trevor has always done right by me, answering any and all questions relating to the work being needed now or in the future. Pricing is fair and I am always able to get my vehicle back in a reasonable amount of time. I've taken both of my vehicles there for a variety of issues and JTown has always been great!

The shield underneath the car got messed up on a long drive from Chicago to visit relatives who live around the corner from J-Town. The J-Town team allowed us to come in even though it was technically after hours going into a long holiday weekend and didn't even charge us to do the work. Very much appreciated--would very much look to use them on a regular basis if we lived in town!

I called to see if he could install parts including brakes and spark plugs on a car I'm trying to sell. He was very rude telling me he doesn't install parts others buy for their cars. The parts could be defective which I understand, but he didn't have to be rude about it. He told me he doesn't take meat to McDonald's for them to cook for him. I explained I bought the parts from autozone and was planning on having a friend install them, but my friend isn't going to have time to install them. His attitude lost any of my business. I'll be sure to let my friends know they should avoid him too. I'm sure he'll be just fine without the business.

J Town Auto is amazing! Other places will take advantage of women and overcharge, but not here! I needed service fast and they came out and towed my car, serviced it, and it was ready the next day. Trevor is great at what he does. My car runs smooth and it didn't break the bank either, I will be coming back here for all my car repairs!

Our older vehicle (1977) had engine issues while we were traveling through Des Moines. Trevor and his crew were AWESOME - thorough, professional, personal, and super communicative. Trevor and his team stayed late, went the extra mile, and even helped with parts that had to be sent out for machining. We got great service and in a timely manner. We would HIGHLY recommendJ Town Auto. Kudos, guys! And Eddie says "hi"!

Trevor went above and beyond, even to the point of staying after hours to make sure I had a safe vehicle to travel with. Excellent service, I would highly recommend him! Thanks so much Trevor! Morgan

Trevor and the others at J-town went above and beyond my expectations. I couldn’t have asked for greater help. They took great care of me and did everything to fix my car. They were real about cost, expectations and didn’t try to push me into anything. I don’t want to have any future car problems come up but if I do, I know I’ll be going to them.Thank you for everything!Services: Transmission

Trevor has worked on our cars for years, and then our kids' cars when they became old enough to drive and started driving our two older cars. My daughter and I were recently going to drive to Idaho together, and she got her car into Trevor at the last minute to make sure it was safe for a long drive like that. It needed some serious work, including new front brakes, but he did it quickly in time for us to leave for the trip. Her car is a 2005 Subaru with a 2012 engine, but it's definitely seen better days. On the way to Cheyenne, it seemed like it was acting up a little, so I called Trevor the next morning and just to be safe he called a shop in Cheyenne that would look at the repairs he did under warranty and make sure all was ok. They got us in right away that morning and they just found an oxygen sensor that needed to be replaced but wasn't serious. They even pressure-checked some things Trevor had done and found it all checked out fine. It was just good to have that peace of mind. Trevor was looking out for us even while we were on the road, and I would recommend J-Town Auto if you want a shop that cares about you - not just your car.

6 stars actually instead of 5. Brought my van in after tired of getting quotes for $100+ oil changes. Great price, great service. You can tell the owner just simply wants to do good business. Will be bringing both my my vehicles here for service from now on and if you live in Johnston and want to support local small business, this is the place!Service: Oil change

I had an issue with my AC Compressor that was causing my vehicle to shut down intermittently. Trevor, the owner at J Town Auto went above to help me out. This place does quality work and trustworthy place! I have used J Town auto a couple of times now and the experience has been great each time. It can be hard to find a quality, trustworthy and budget friendly automotive repair place and so I’m happy to have J Town auto nearby for any vehicle concerns that may arise.

Trevor is a honest, hardworking mechanic. He repaired my Ram Promaster for my driver that was broke down. I would recommend this place to anyone.
