J did a great job. He went out of his way to pick up the part for my AC, and he even took my car in that same day and serviced it. I will definitely be returning to service my car with him again.

Dr J's initially told me an emissions test was going to cost 42 dollars, but after leaving I spent 95 dollars and had a expensive list of "issues" with my car that they described as being imparative to fix. After giving me my quote the counter guy couldn't even look me in my eyes as if he knew he was trying to rip me off. To confirm my suspicions I went to a good mechanic friend of mine who is a manager at O'reilly's. What he had to say was aggrevating to say the least, he informed me that Dr J's was overcharging for parts by as much as 3 to 4 times the amount, and over quoted me on labor times. One of the issues with my car was a check engine light bulb which Dr J's quoted me 187 dollars for. I fixed it myself for 5 dollars plus tax. Dr J's quoted 3 hours of labor for this, It took me 20 minutes to fix. I would not recommend this establishment to anyone. There are plenty of great mechanics out there who are honest. I would use them instead.

Have an 04 Jag. Most places won't touch these cars but Dr. J is great and will warranty his work. Nice personality. Will explain what failed and most likely why. I highly recommend this guy.

We have been taking our vehicles to Dr. J's for several years now for oil changes and other service. They have always given us great service and their prices have typically been less than what we have paid elsewhere. Their new location is not on a major street, but still pretty easy to find.

I was stranded 500 miles from home with my 20 yr old Jaguar. Dr. J diagnosed and replaced my fuel pump and got me back on the road in 24 hours.

Dr. J's Auto clinic are the good guys. They communicate well, get the job done right and stand behind their work. I've been taking my old Triumph Spitfire to them for several years. They know how to get creative when piecing the 'ol car together. "Keep up the good work!"

Had to go to Albuquerque for an appointment for my daughter. Ended up having some car trouble. I was leaking transmission fluid really bad. Luckily I found these guys they had the leak fixed and I was back on my way home to Alamogordo in no time. They are reasonably priced and looked over my car to make sure I would make it home. Happy to report we made it home without any issues. Thank you for helping.

I was passing through Albuquerque from Oklahoma and decided to stop and get my fluids and tires checked. I went in to see if they did that and a guy said not really, but was more than happy to help me. He added any fluids I was low on and checked my tire pressure. He was down to earth and would not accept any money. It is people like that gentleman that make this world a better place. Very trustworthy shop, would be the only mechanic I would go to if I ever passed through again and was in need.

While on a cross-country road trip, the transmission light came on as we arrived in Albuquerque. We arrived right after opening and had car evaluated. Within 15 minutes, we were updated of status and issue resolved. As I had already encountered mechanical problems (with another vehicle) on this trip, I anxiously awaited my bill and was told there was no charge for the inspection. Such a gift in this day and time. Customer service skills were A+. Highly recommend!

Ricky and Jay are very good at what they do. They take the time necessary to diagnose and fix your vehicle right the first time. They both care about your safety and will tell you the truth about the work needed and won't try to sell you anything you don't. If you are looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and honest mechanic. Dr. J's is the place to go.

My car sat for 15 months at Cutting Edge Automotive in Santa Fe because they couldn't figure out what the acceleration problem was. I took it to Dr J's and had my car back within a week working as normal. Really appreciate these guys!!

Absolutely the worst "mechanic" I was putting in a new 350 creat motor in my pickup and unfortunately had ended up in a cast so was unable to finish myself. Hired these guys to finish up some wiring and finish a few odds and ends... Took a month just to get a quote and another month to get the truck back. Brought it in May 3rd and didn't get it back until July. When I did get it back the transmission wasn't bolted down like it was supposed to be and my transmission broke as a result. Brought it back and they did a sorry repair and never fixed anything.... lots of excuses and headaches and was charged double what I was quoted.... my recommendation is save your money at the "dr" and take it to a real Mechanic!

Dr.J's in house transmission specialist brought my 4x4 back to life. Recommended by a friend so highly I drove from Santa Fe and am glad I did. Have been driving for a month now with new repairs ( snow and deep mud) and all is great. Good communication and follow up and answered all my questions before and after. I'm glad I went out of my way for professional ,experienced work with a nice warranty I highly recommend Dr.J Automotive for repairs and friendly staff too.

Recently bought a 1965 Thunderbird Convertible that had been sitting for 27 years. Needless to say it was not running very well. Took it to Dr. J's and he did several things to it including an electric choke. The car is now running much better. It is very nice to find a mechanic that knows what he is doing. I highly recommend Dr. J's.

I brought in a 1979 Mazda RX7 that hadn't been driven in decades. Jay got it up and running and I couldn't be happier. Thanks for everything!

Thank you thank you Dr. J's. Referred by friends from my car club. They did several key repairs to my 1976 Eldorado in just over a week and very fair price. She's running better than she has in almost 20 years... starting on the first try every time. Very happy!
