I have been taking my vehicles to C.A.R.S. for years, I refer everyone to these guys. John Christie is an excellent mechanic and an honest businessman. A rare "Hometown" mechanic, The type of guy that will tell you how to fix it yourself. I have brought in vehicles for everything from oil changes to body lifts, Never an issue and always on time. Not the cheapest shop in town, But you truly get what you pay for, Especially with auto repair. Keep up the good work guys!

Second time at C.A.R.S, took my car to replace axles. John, Chris and the team are very honest people. They won't charge you for every nut and bolt replaced. Best customer service ever.

I called John describing the issues I was having with the clutch on my sons Nissan 370Z. He was able to diagnose the problem, as well as research part options and, give me an exact estimate all over the phone. I dropped the car off later that day for what turned out to be a fairly big job (the master and slave cylinders for the clutch needed replaced), it was done in a little more than a day and it is running great. He stuck to the EXACT price quoted on the phone and was several hundred dollars less than the dealership. But what I was most impressed by was, this was the only shop out of the many in that area which didn't tell me that, I needed to replace the clutch, which I already knew didn't need to be replaced. Every other shop I called told me on the phone the clutch should be replaced as well, which was definitely unnecessary in my case.

John is a great and honest man. I took my car in not knowing what was wrong with it. I thought it was the rack and pinion that was leaking . So I lifted there so John could work on it. He quoted me $351 bucks, and that it would be done by 3 or 4. I was home when my cell rang, it was John. He told me that my car was done and that he saved me some cash. I get there and his wife tells me that it's $193. I was like wow what happened? She says that they didn't need to replace the hose only an over ring, I was great. He could of easily say that they replaced it, I would never have known. Honesty is what I saw, he's got my business that's for sure.

Best mechanic I've ever dealt with. Can fix pretty much anything. They know what they are doing for sure . Very professional and I wouldn't go anywhere else. John is the best mechanic and I wouldn't trust anybody else with my cars. He has done flawless work on my vehicles and I am so happy I've met such an awesome talented person. Thank you John

I went in for a clutch repair, and an overall transmission repair. Being a little afraid of dishonest mechanics, I took my bets and took my car to John at C.A.R.S. Auto Repair. I could've not asked for a better mechanic than John and his crew. They're professionals at what they do without a doubt. If he sees something that should be replaced or fixed he'll let you know. These guys work very clean, they do not make a mess out of your car. They work very fast, and if anything goes wrong after your repair, you can take it back and they'll have you back on the road in no time, at no extra cost within the warranty. I also appreciate that they keep your vehicle indoor overnight. (Yes, I was paranoid enough I checked everyday) If you're looking for a fast working, honest mechanic, that wont rip you off, John is best person to come to when your car needs repairs. I would recommend this repair shop to any of my friends,and anyone in general.

Honest, hardworking and gets the job done right. I have been taking my vehicles to John for the past couple years now and let me just say you wont find a mechanic as good as him and his team. They have always been professional and timely. They fix the problem and they charge honest prices for their parts/service. I remember when I was looking for a used truck/SUV, not only did he point me in the right direction but he also offered to give any vehicle I was considering a look over. He has definitely gone above and beyond to help me and my family. Its important to him to get the job done right. 5 star mechanic!

Forgot to post a review when I got my car done a few weeks ago. They did a great job and amazing customer service. Prices are pretty fair compared to other shops. I definitely recommend.

My mechanic retired last year, and I've been worried about finding a skilled mechanic nearby. Thankfully, I found C.A.R.S. based on web reviews. My Ford truck had a fuel leak. John took care of it, installed a new one and answered all my questions. He does excellent work and solved my problem. Now I can get back into the field and do my photography work. Thanks, C.A.R.S.!

Best shop I've been to. John was very professional and honest. I picked my vehicle up and there was a slight issue. He had me bring it back immediately and took a look and let me know what further repairs were needed. Amazing customer service.

This shop is now Pro-Transmission and CARS integrated! John is the owner of both, he used to do work on my car when he owned the CARS only side of it back in 2017. He is a family mechanic, and has also worked on both my mom and sister’s car. So I’ve known John for 6 years now and please know this man will do all he can to get you the best deal possible. He is very reasonable & fair with his pricing and does everything he can to make the customer happy. Best thing though is he does STELLAR work, he did fantastic work on my brakes / rotors, spark plugs, some basic maintenance and transmission work at a price that you would NEVER find anywhere else with the quality of work he does.

These guys are great! I had the pleasure of speaking with Janet as a point of contact and she was friendly and knowledgeable. The work was done in an effective and timely manner, and were honest about what the issue was. I had a small part fall off the engine and get stuck lower in the bay, and instead of trying to charge for a new one the called and gave me the option to drive it and see how it did. Worked like a charm! I have had no problems since and would recommend these guys to anyone. Ive finally found a shop i can trust!

Thanks to my friend Brian for recommending this store and John. My General Motors broke down. It took me an hour to help me make a test quotation. The next day I drove here and helped me solve the problem in an hour. It was honest and fast. John and their partners are friendly, enthusiastic and excellent people, and the jeriy technician who helped me repair the car was very enthusiastic and serious. In addition to solving my problems, it also reminded me to other problems. I strongly recommend this garage and these people. Thank John and his partners again.

I put my 2006 dodge ram 1500 in here because of the engine light was on. They pulled the codes and did some trouble shooting on it. Said its a electrical issues and recommended I take it to a electrical specialist and gave me two different recommendations for places. John explained to me what all he did when troubleshooting the problem and answered all my questions. After I get the electrical issue fixed I will be bringing it back to get my shocks done. I found a honest mechanic with honest prices. I will be recommending this place to my friends and co workers.

John and his crew are the Best. I don't trust my cars with anyone! I'm Glad I found them. I've been going there for all my automotive needs and I consider John "My Mechanic" and the guy I recommend to others. It takes alot of confidence for me to recommend anyone because I'm so picky. He is fair, reliable and honest. Don't waste your time or money anywhere else. They do Transmissions and alignments too now. I give him 5 🌟 for the past 5 years.
