I decided to try Johnson's Automotive when my car started making some weird noises while driving, and I'm so glad that I did. Not only were they able to get me in quickly, but the service I received was hands down the best I've experienced with a car repair place. They were thorough and transparent throughout the entire process (even going on a test drive with me to make sure that they could hear the sounds that were happening). The prices are also much more affordable than other places in town. Sometimes getting your car fixed as a woman can be a little daunting, but I felt totally comfortable the entire time. My experience with Jake who worked at the front desk was awesome as well. He was friendly, explained everything clearly, and you can tell that he genuinely cares about the customers.

We look forward to every opportunity to help people succeed. Thank you for such a wonderful review. We appreciate you and everything you bring to this community and we genuinely just care about making things smooth and clear and it sounds like Jake nailed it.

This shop caused more issues than they fixed. I brought my truck in for a no start and a coolant leak both problems fixed while creating multiple new issues. My ABS light was on post service and they took it back inside to check it out and it’s just a sorry it happen while it was here… I now have a massive exhaust leak that was not present before service, A blown speaker seriously? It’s not like a minor crackle either the speakers is completely junk… I called and talked to “Lee” who is in charge or the owner I’m not sure but told him my issues and he disregards it and takes no responsibility for his horrible technician. I have already filed my complaint with the state of Michigan. People get screwed by auto shops daily don’t let them screw you over as well.

This vehicle is a 2008 Ford F150. The exhaust manifold studs are broken off like every Ford F150 in that year range, do to rust. As for the speaker I don’t know if it worked or not because we never listen to customers radios. Our policy is to turn the radio off as well as the blower fan so that we can listen to the vehicle for issues related to mechanical repairs. We don’t even have a radio in the shop. Nobody listens to the radio. We’re too busy talking to each other and listening to vehicles. The ABS light was on after the repairs and I was not responsible but thought it fair to pull it in the building and diagnose the issue for you even though it was not anything we did the vehicle needs a rear ABS sensor located in the rear differential housing, the differential which has bearing failure And is leaking very badly. I stated to you, I would go ahead and replace the sensor when you rebuild the rear differential (you have your own bearing kit and wanted us to rebuild the diff but we do not install customer supplied parts) and you were very upset about a lot of things as we went through the process with you. However I will not admit to doing something wrong when we did nothing wrong. You can ask anyone who knows me, I am the first one to admit when we did something wrong. I’m not gonna admit to doing something wrong when Rust is responsible for your exhaust leak, the rear differential damage is likely due to your ABS light and in 2008 speakers failed very commonly and we don’t listen to speakers unless a customer asks us to diagnose a speaker issue. We don’t damage customers vehicles and we didn’t damage your vehicle. We performed everything you told us to do and we made it very clear that this vehicle was very crusty and rusty, and we were going to struggle to complete the job, there were many other things quoted because it needs many other things. If we had damaged your truck in any way we would’ve been the first ones to say we did, we didn’t so it is what it is, I only tell the truth. I know you’re going through some tough times like the rest of the world and all I wanna do is help you get to a better place. Life is tough. I hope things get better for you. All repairs performed are still under warranty.

Let me first start by saying I'm starting to dislike my car. It seems like for the past 3 years everytime I turn around it's springing a leak or I hear another rattle. I have been taking my car to another place in town and I was getting so frustrated because the shop was having my car more than I was. I needed a change after springing a third leak within a few months. I called Johnson's Automotive they got me in same day to look and see if they could find the issue. They let me know the steps they would take then called me to let me know where the new found leak was coming from. They let me know the price, let me know it was an all day job. Also told me some other issues going on that the previous place didn't mention. I was called once my vehicle was ready. The feel I got was a lot more warm and fuzzy then from the other place. I just hope my car doesn't become a frequent flyer to Johnson's Automotive like it had to the other place I know this will be the place I take my car when it decides it wants to lubricate my driveway.

Your funny, I sure hope you don’t need us but I know you will eventually. Older vehicles take time to get all the bugs worked out and sometimes they never really go without something needing to be done but 800 a month for 6 years is pretty rough. Because even new vehicles need maintenance and repairs. I promise you we can make it better than that with your old ride and we are here to serve you with honesty and integrity.

Super friendly and informative staff! As a women, I felt totally comfortable in here unlike most auto repair shops in town. I would highly recommend this place! Plus a huge bonus, their prices are much more reasonable compared to other places in the area. They we’re straight forward with what my vehicle needed and seemed very honest as well!

Honesty and Integrity = US. Thank you

These guys are fantastic. I had issues with 2 vehicles in the same week. Johnsons diagnosed, quoted, and repaired quickly. I like that they give advice and options, carefully explaining everything. Any future auto issues will result in me going back to Johnsons! Thank you!!

You’re welcome, John. We’re here to serve and we look forward to anything you may need in the future.

Been having a problem with my stabilitrax and traction control light coming on randomly and not being able to be fixed since it never fires when taking it in. They were able to research and find the problem! So far all good and no more lights! They also gave us a tour of the shop. Made us feel very transparent that they were not trying to push repairs that were not necessary! Definitely a place I feel comfortable going back too if needed!

Thank you Daniel and I appreciate the feedback on the traction control being fixed. Thank you
