Our Customer Reviews

I've never really left a review, but will absolutely take the time to recommend John's Auto. Friday evening my partner and I found out truck couldn't shift into drive, we called John's and they thankfully took it in and we were able to get it looked at come Monday. I absolutely feared the worst, thinking the transmission or something big, scary, and expensive had went on the truck. Of all things involved, a walnut was causing the shifter to get blocked. Derek, who I was in constant contact with, waved the inspection fee for the repair, and gave us some recommendations of things the tech had found. The customer service from Derek, as well as the transparency from him and the company was a breath of fresh air. They have a customer in me for life.

I took my 04 infiniti g35 here awhile ago and had great experience! Very knowledgeable mechanics & knowledgeable with their cars

Jess M Sep 9, 2024

This was my first time dealing with this business. They were professional, thorough and easy to communicate with. I do not think anyone really likes taking their car to an auto shop but this was definitely a positive experience.

Janet Maxwell Aug 8, 2024

I basically brought these guys a bucket of bolts at the beginning of summer and they literally performed a miracle by rebuilding my transmission, installing a new clutch, replacing the high pressure fuel pump, fixing an oil pan leak, replacing the windshield and swapping out my tires. I owe them a huge debt of gratitude for their diligence, perseverance, and precision. John‘s Auto Service is a place of integrity, impeccability and the highest professionalism. I will use them for all my automotive service and I can’t recommend them enough!

Very honest and trustworthy repairs for your car. They show you pictures and explain things in detail. Never feel pressured to do extra work, spend extra money. It’s nice to know they are more interested in building trust for long term relationships with their clients.

There service here was outstanding. I had a loose heat shield hanging off the bottom of my car. I managed to get an appointment the next day. The garage kept me up to date via email and text with how the work proceeded. They also updated me on other issues my car had and sent invoices to show how much completing this services would be. Their frequent and easy communication, friendly service and quality repairs really sold me on making this my go to garage in Kingston! I recommend these guys to everyone I know.

I first used John's after noticing some leaking transmission fluid. They found the problem, showed me pictures, and fixed it. Since then I've had very friendly reminders from them when my vehicle is due for service and am very happy to use them for that. I feel like I've found the honest garage I've been looking for. Thanks for you great work.

Rosemary Wilson Jul 7, 2022

Amazingly attentive and detailed service! I can’t say enough great things. I’m not a car person and things were explained very clearly and in way that not only could I understand but I knew that there was thought and care behind the work. I have never had such a good experience with an auto shop. I can’t recommend them highly enough!!

Tanja Veenendaal Aug 8, 2021

John’s Auto Service has always been extremely helpful and honest - two qualities that are difficult to find in the car industry. Whenever I required their services, they gave me the run down of the work I needed done and their HONEST opinion.. being a young girl, they could have easily taken advantage of my lack of knowledge, but they never overcharged me, as I pursued other quotes and John’s were always the lowest and best prices, as well as accurately itemized invoices. Would highly recommend their services to anyone. Thanks John’s Auto!

Rachel Hay Aug 8, 2021

The team at John's auto are friendly and approachable. They provide an estimate prior to the service and worked with me to create a service plan for my car. This means I can anticipate upcoming service expenses so that my car stays running well. They help source tires and wipers, give suggestions and always let me decide. John's auto is a quality garage with integrity!!

Sharon Hunter Aug 8, 2021

Every time I take my car to John’s Auto it is a great experience. The staff are friendly and professional, and I always feel that they communicate in a way that helps me understand what is happening with my vehicle and what needs to be done.

Robert Jonathan Aug 8, 2021

John's Auto Service has been easy to work with and professional in all interactions. They send details of what needs to be done prior to doing it and answer all questions.

Amazing customer service! I am new to Kingston and these Mechanics came highly recommended to me by a friend. Although I had a thought wrong with my car and it was a big Bill at first, I have been very satisfied with their explanations and customer service.

It is with much enthusiasm that I am writing to recommend the fleet services of John’s Auto Service. Our organization has entrusted our entire fleet of various type vehicles to their team for nearly 15 years and have been continuously satisfied. The importance of the safety of our crew behind the wheel is priceless and we consider Greg and his team our very own personal Fleet Safety Team. Armed with state-of-the-art equipment and technology, they can document inspections and provide pictures of proof to communicate their recommendations in layman’s terms. Their professionalism is appreciated beyond words. They understand the importance of our fleet getting to work and go above and beyond with complimentary services to ensure uninterrupted business flow. There’s a special appreciation for this team, especially Greg, for their honesty and dedication to clients and their needs. He’s a gentlemen and pleasure to do business with.
