BJ's Auto Repair in
Port St. Joe (FL)

I was on vacation and there was a loud humming in my Rav4. My brother, a mechanic with 30 + years, was there and said it sounded like a rear wheel bearing. Found BJs, called, and even though they were very backed up, they worked me in as I needed to drive back to GA the next day. Sure enough, it was the wheel bearing! They ordered the part and had me on the road by 1:30 pm the next day! Plus, it was a very good price. These guys have a small shop with a great rep. Plus, they are just nice fellas! Thanks to Rick and BJ!

On our vacation our alternator went out. Advanced Auto recommended BJs. We called them in the morning and it was fixed by that afternoon. Fast, friendly service!

I highly recommend! While on vacation I had car issues. Called, carried in my car and they had me going the same day. So thankful for them getting my car fixed! Saved my vacation from being ruined! If you are ever in need of car service this is the place to go! I was also able to witness how he took care of another customer. So impressed with the quality of work, service and kindness!

Such great people work here! I was in a pinch needing my boat trailer repaired before being able to drive home, and they saved me! I'm so grateful I found them and stopped in.

These guys are great. They really help me out when I was in a difficult position. They were jammed with business and for good reason. They are honest and professional. Yet me in and got me back on the road when I otherwise would have been stranded. Strongest recommendation!

On the way to PSJ from Lake Oconee GA, Toyota Tundra alternator started going out. Thankfully we made it to hotel and contacted BJs the next morning. Answered the phone b4 8 am. They said bring it in and had it back out the door before 3 pm!!! Also, they charged much less than what I thought they would, with me being an out of towner. No gouging at all!! If you’re in need of auto repair, these are the guys to use in PSJ. I called the part stores to ask and they all recommend BJs. Wonderful kind people. Thanks so much guys!!! Capt Doug

Rick and BJ were great. Got me in quick and fixed the drive shaft on my truck the same day so I could get my family home safely. Did it free simply to be nice. Great communication, friendly, accommodating, good people.

We had car trouble while on vacation and asks several locals of recommendations for auto repair everyone of them recommend Bjs Auto Repair. I'm glad I took those recommendations and called. BJ's quickly diagnosed the issue and had my car fixed and ready to go within a few hours (burnt up coil). The staff was friendly, professional, and clearly knew what they were doing. I really appreciated the fast turnaround and honest service—definitely made an extremely stressful situation much easier. Highly recommend if you need reliable help in Port St Joe!

Have never had such a wonderful experience at an auto shop. I drive an hour in a half to bring my car here. They are not only honest and fair, but incredibly knowledgeable and efficient. Beyond grateful to know that businesses and gentlemen of this caliber still exist in this world! Thanks Tom ✨

My girlfriends car started acting crazy on our way back home from the beach. We limped it in to BJs and he had us back on the road in about an hr. Great guy and really quick service. Father of UFC Bantamweight champion Raquel Pennington! Highly recommended

We were in town for vacation and got a piece of metal in a tire that caused a flat tire. Took my car here to see about getting a patch. BJ and his technician Ethan got us fixed up in 20 minutes and we were back on the road. Highly recommend BJ and his team!

We were on vacation and the A/C went out on our truck. Rick found the issues and got it working again for a fair price. 2 days later it went out again, I returned and Rick looked at it and found that it was a wiring problem that kept blowing the fuse. He replaced the fuse at no cost. We were leaving the next day so we didn’t have time to chase the wire problem down. Rick gave me extra fuses and showed me which one it was in case it blew on our drive back to Ohio, which it did once. Honest shop that won’t do unnecessary repairs.

Been on vacation for a week & my last night my car won’t start. I’m due to come home today. I jumped my car off this morning & called BJ’s Auto. I explained what was going on. He explained it was a more than likely a bad battery or alternator. I brought right to him. They checked & it was the battery. Replaced the battery. Excellent customer service, friendly & polite!! I would call on them again in a heartbeat if needed while in the area.

Awesome! Daughter had slow leak in tire, we took it to BJ’s . Lot was full of other customers- he had her pull up, found the nail and fix it for no charge! Small town service- wonderful!

We had a 6 hour drive from GA to Cape San Blas and our car started to overheat. We thought we just needed coolant, but the next day it overheated again and realized there is a leak somewhere because all the coolant had already drained. I did a quick google search for nearby mechanics and BJ’s came up. And since the first phone call, we have received nothing but excellent customer service. We had it towed first thing the next morning and our car was ready the following day. Being a mama with 2 babies, we really needed our car to get around (and to get home by Saturday). I was worried we were going to need to extend our trip or get a car rental. I appreciated how fast they got us in and out. And our car is running perfect!

We are from out of town. Our Ford Expedition system notified us that our back tire was in critical condition for psi. The gentleman at this shop was very nice; he put air in the tire and found a screw, and plugged our tire for free. Thank you!

We were down in Cape San Blas, Florida when my belt on our Sequoia went out. Called BJ’s and he said it could be bearings on a pulley, but that he would take a look at it. No charge to take a look at it. I was really nervous because this was our only mode of transportation back to Atlanta. He was super courteous and kind and tell me he would do his best. He called me the same day, and said that he took care of it and fixed it. 170 bucks and we’re back in our car. Super happy super grateful that they took care of this and we could get back to Atlanta). Thank you so much.

This garage is phenomenal. I'm traveling back to Maine and needed brake work done before the 31st. They worked me in this morning. They didn't charge me any tax on the parts I'd already purchased and would not take a tip. As a woman traveling alone, I was concerned about taking my vehicle to anyone other than my mechanic. The concern was totally unwarranted. Super nice guys. Very polite, kind and good conversation. Thank you!!

Getting ready to head out for our next destination on our travels along the coast and noticed that we had a soft tire. Stopped to see about getting it taken care of without an appointment. Had to wait about 25 minutes, which was no big deal since they were swamped. When he checked it out, we had a nail in the tire. He plugged it, and we were good to go. He wouldn't take any money for it, so I left a $20.00 bill, said thanks a lot, and walked away . Highly recommend this business if you ever need anything done when you are in the area.

I ran over a large bolt or screw and my tire light came on. I pulled into BJ's and they fixed me up and had me on my way in short order. Rick pulled my car into the bay and recommended some additional work from what he felt in the front end. I knew this was needed, so it wasn't a surprise. But I was treated so professionally and felt comfortable. I will definitely return so they can perform the necessary work! Update: I returned today to have the additional work done on my vehicle. The guys did a great job and went above and beyond. I'm happy to have found a mechanic I can totally trust!

Pulled into drive of our condo and brakes went out. Had our car truck towed to BJs . They had it fixed and ready by the end of the next day . Did it for a great price as well. Would highly recommend Rick and his crew

While on vacation, we discovered a screw in one of our tires. We called BJ’s and they said they were very busy, but would get us in. When we arrived an hour later, they were definitely busy. The gentleman behind the desk (owner/manager?) came out right away and fixed the tire himself. He also would not accept any payment. Such a nice experience!!

Fast friendly service. We had a wonderful experience. You never want to need an auto repair shop on vacation but we would highly recommend them to anyone!! I was afraid the wait was going to be forever when I saw the amount of cars in the lot. We were there less than 10 minutes and they had removed the screw and fixed the tire. They would not accept payment. Looking at other reviews I see this is common for them. You do not find many businesses like this one. Remarkable business and crew!

Friendly and they where professional and speedy on getting the repairs fix correctly. Prices for repairs was very reasonable. I recommend them to who ever is living in the Gulf County, FL area. Right off Hwy East of 98 in Port St Joe City. They do light mechanical repairs on trucks, SUV and cars, oil change, tire change, brakes and alignment. call to see about getting your vehicle there and make appointment. As far as towing a vehicle I'm not sure on that but you can call to ask them. Take care.

Came down to port st. Joe on vacation this past week and my alternator belt broke as well as the idler pulley needed replaced. Had my truck (2020 Sierra) towed to this shop on a Thursday as the owner said he could get it fixed before we left on Monday. Parts for my truck were hard to find (except from dealerships), however, the owner communicated with me every step of the way. I ended up being able to get them and he stayed late Friday afternoon getting them installed and my truck fixed. Owner was super accommodating and understanding as to my situation. Couldn’t recommend this shop more! Great overall experience!

My truck window broke and wouldnt roll up while on a trip to Port St Joe. Bjs Auto fixed it same day, as i waited, for a very reasonable price. Top notch service.

Our RV tow car died on Christmas Day and Rick at Bj’s helped run tests to determine the issue and had us back on the road in no time at all. Our rig was complete again and Rick was very knowledgeable and efficient.
