I brought my car here to fix a specific issue and it was never actually fixed. I paid for the service and left with the exact same problem I came in with. On top of that, there was no real explanation or accountability when I followed up — just excuses.
When you take your car to a shop, you expect the problem to be solved, not to waste time and money. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what happened here. I won’t be coming back and I definitely wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone who needs reliable work done.
I've had my vehicles into John multiple times and he always does what he can to get the job done right at a good price. Hometown Auto does good and honest work. John has gone the extra mile time and time again for my families vehicles. 10/10 recommend
Today I called Hometown Auto frantic with car problems. When I got to the shop they immediately started working on my car, calmed me down and had me back on the road within a half hour. They were kind, attentive and very reasonably priced. God blessed me today by getting me to Hometown Auto.
John is absolutely amazing! He worked on my truck and fixed the issue right away the first time. When I brought it back for a different problem, he was upfront and broke down every detail so I could understand exactly what was going on. I completely trust him to work on all my vehicles — he’s honest, reliable, and beyond reasonable. This is hands down the best auto shop I’ve ever been to in Tulare County! Don’t take your car anywhere else — Hometown Auto is the place, and John is the man!
Very honest people in actually give you prices I had to get a new starter installed wasn't sure if it was my ignition or starter it was my starter I have a lifetime parts warranty on the starter from them I would only have to pay for labor for the rest of my life
John and his crew are amazing. They do great work, John is honest, reliable, and straight forward with you. Don't waste your time going to another shop. We have referred a few people to Hometown Auto and they have all been happy with their services.
Extremely kind, super professional and reliable. Came through when I was in a bind, super efficient always going above and beyond. Cannot be more thankful and relieved, recommend 100%.
Hometown Auto LLC, May 7, 2025 I was recommended by Mark's Muffler Services (he doesn't work on "Diesel Engines") so I came here for an estimate to check on a possible fuel leak ( fumes inside the cabin of the truck) & to change out a 02 sensor. I got the estimate of what it would cost & I thank you for your time but I got it all done & that was everything included for just $10 dollars altogether. "Have A Great Day"! 😎👍
The owner and mechanics are knowledgeable, thorough, efficient, honest and just all around super people!
We're in the middle of a cross country trip and developed a leak (which turned out to be more than just one)
They got us diagnosed, parts ordered, repaired and back on the road faster than I thought humanly possible
The owner John was very nice. He had the part to my car ordered and installed all within the same day and saved me money compared to other mechanics. Very pleased with their services and plan to continue taking my car there for further repairs.
On a cross-country trip with my '91 Camaro which had died while driving several times in the first 200 miles. Pulled into Hometown and at first the owner said he wouldn't be able to look at it that day, then talked to his mechanic and said they actually could, right then. Estimate for diagnosis was $125, which was fair in itself.
Long story short, in about 10 minutes they fixed the mysterious problem plaguing my car. When we settled up, he handed me a bill for $0! Even with insisting I pay something, he refused. 500 miles later the car is running like a champ! Thanks guys!
John and his team never disappoint. First rate service, very friendly and courteous. This is a shop you can trust. No price gouging. Fair honest and affordable. Highly recommended.
Hometown Auto Repair has taken care of problems with my car which multiple other auto shops couldn’t figure out including the dealership. When I took my car in John was able to pinpoint the problems and repair them efficiently and effectively. I will only use Hometown Auto Repair from now on!
I am very happy with multiple auto repairs from Hometown Auto. Staff is friendly, thorough checks and reports, prompt service and repairs, and reasonably priced. For auto repairs, they are awesome!!
Hometown Auto has helped us tremendously! We have had all 3 of our vehicles serviced by John and his staff. They have done the work quickly and given us quality services at a low price! I will not be taking my vehicles anywhere else.
Hometown Auto is my knight in shining armor! I’ve taken my car there twice both times on a tow truck with problems that other shops couldn’t fix. Hometown Auto got me back on the road and saved me money in anyway they could. 10/10 would recommend! Tell them Ricky Bobby sent you!
I’m super happy with both the experiences I’ve had here at Hometown Auto. I’ve found my go-to place to get my cars serviced and repaired. Thanks for proving trustworthiness can happen in auto repair!
