My 17-year-old daughter was on a day trip to the beach with a friend when her car started having (she thought) a recurring issue on the way there. We made her an appt to have it checked, and Juan was incredibly helpful and honest. He looked over the car quickly, reassured her that everything was fine, and told her it was safe to drive home. He didn’t charge her for the inspection, which we really appreciated. Great service and integrity!

My car broke down while I was driving. Goggled and found J & C Auto was close by. My car limped to the shop. Juan and his father assisted me immediately. They were very professional and knowledgeable. Juan had my car fixed by 2pm the next day. So glad that I found this business. This is by far the best overall automotive repair situation i have ever had.

J & C Automotive really helped us out and we are forever grateful! We were out of town on vacation and Juan was able to diagnose and fix our issue the same day. He was reasonably priced, very knowledgeable and friendly! Thank you so much J& C Automotive!!

Phenomenal experience here. Very quick turn around, fair rates, no upselling or any of that BS a lot of shops do. The owner kept me well informed of the diagnosis and repair options/ costs. Even sent me detailed photos to confirm diagnosis. Would recommend to everyone!!

Honesty this place has the best service!! I take my vehicle in, in the morning, and a diagnosis by noon and fixed bye the end of the day! Juan gave me a quote, turns out I had more serious issues going on and he didn't charge me any extra labor money for the extra work, just parts for the other work that had risen. This place is awesome and I will never ever go anywhere else. Thank you Juan! You have a customer for life.

My tire pressure sensor went on as I was about to drive back home to Houston so I searched for the nearest mechanic. One of the guys here checked my tires, put air in the one that was low, and showed me how to recalibrate the sensor, for no charge. I’ll definitely be coming here if I ever have more serious car trouble while in Galveston.

Juan was absolutely great. I was having a problem with my catalytic converter and engine and instead of saying I needed a new engine and this and that, he provided an affordable, honest solution that has kept my car running well for months now. He's earned my business from now on!

Visiting the island and ran into an issue with our vehicle. Called Juan at J&C, had our vehicle towed to his shop on Wednesday afternoon. Car was fixed and ready to go next afternoon. Outstanding service, professional and great customer interaction. A fantastic business and a great family as well. Highly recommend.

Juan and his team did an outstanding job. We are here on vacation when this issue started to be a problem so we looked for a local repair shop. J&C had great reviews and we explained the situation. Juan worked our vehicle in and diagnosed and fixed the issues in amazing time. Not only that, the special care taken to protect the interior was a nice touch. Bearing replaced and working great for a very fair price. We give this business and Juan our best rating and I seldom give a 5. You can feel confident with J&C.

Was having a problem with my 2012 Hyundai Elantra as engine felt "jumpy" when idling or stopped at a red light. Then more recently, it started to do the same when moving. I was hoping for the best-but dreading the worst. (New transmission or other costly repair.) It tuned out to be the ignition coil. I was pleasantly surprised that this repair was actually affordable! Juan was very honest & courteous & Armando even dropped me off at home while it was being worked on & picked me up when work was completed. An overall great experience. I highly recommend J&C Automotive.

Fantastic Mechanic! I've been bringing my truck to Juan for years, even though I've moved away from the island. That's how much I trust and appreciate their exceptional work. Every time I visit, I'm met with friendly and knowledgeable staff who go above and beyond to ensure my vehicle is in top shape. Not only does J&C Automotive excel in technical skills, but their customer service is also second to none. They take the time to explain the repairs needed, patiently answering all my questions. Their dedication to customer satisfaction is truly commendable. If you're looking for a reliable and trustworthy mechanic, I highly recommend J&C Automotive . Even if you've moved away, it's worth the trip back to receive their top-notch service. They deserve all the praise for their exceptional workmanship and commitment to their customers. Thank you Juan, for always taking care of my truck! Mark Rodz

We were on vacation in Galveston and our car stopped working on the day before we were to depart. J&C Automotive was recommended to us by the lady we were renting from. We called the shop and Juan picked up. He listened to our situation and took care of us. Not only did the car get repaired in a timely manner where we were able to check out on time the next day, but the whole customer service experience was 5-star from start to finish. They were honest, professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. Definitely a 5-star automotive shop!

I have been using J&C for several years now, they are a professional and honest, you don't have to worry about your vehicle when you drop it off. I have tried several others here on the island before I found J&C and now they are the only mechanic shop I use! Thanks for your outstanding service.

My wife and I were in Galveston for her birthday on a weekend getaway. We were in a jeep which has no doors when her seatbelt locked up and she was unable to put it on. It was our last day in Galveston and we needed to head home, which is almost a 2 hour drive. Found J & C online and stopped in to ask for assistance. We y old Juan our situation and he said to leave it with him and he would give it a look and see if he can get us fixed and on our way. Even offered to give us a ride wherever we wanted in Galveston while we waited. We declined since he is very close to the beach and we walked to the beach to take stroll. In somewhere around an hour or less he called and said it was ready. We told him we would walk back and he said no, he would pick us up, which he did. His shop had vehicles in it, meaning he had plenty of work, but he took the time to help us when we were in a bind. A very good man running a very good shop. He took care of us when we were in a bind and took care of us financially. More than than fair. I would absolutely use him for my normal mechanic work if I lived in Galveston. Highly recommended. Thank you Juan. Shane and Laurie.

I had a brake issue. Initially I wasn't sure what the problem was but Wahn diagnosed the problem, gave me a quoted price for which he honored even after finding I needed more work. At that point I paid no extra labor just materials. Honest man, worth the wait if there is one!!!

I am visiting Galveston, and just stopped by to have the fluids checked/topped off on my car before driving to CA. Juan was SO kind - rather fatherly - he checked the various items necessary, and let me know everything looks in good order - without charge. How nice it is to meet kind, honest people in a rough world. Thank you, Juan!
