John's Auto Repair (Over 40 Years In Business) in
East Windsor Township (NJ)

John is the best. I got an oil change at Walmart and they told me my car had a coolant leak. I used the overnight drop-off service at John’s, and they were super nice and totally on top of everything. Great service!

My car tire started leaking while I was passing through NJ and the gentleman at the counter was kind enough to change my tire for free after giving me advice on where to get a new tire. Super friendly and kind.

My teenaged daughter was stranded on a road trip from Westpoint and this shop saved the day for us. She said they were super kind and exceptionally helpful. Thank you for everything!

Man, I wish I lived closer to this garage, it would be my go-to garage for trustworthy and reasonable service. I want to recognize Craig in particular. Long story short, my car broke down driving I-95 (200 miles from home) on the way to JFK airport to drop my son off for a flight. I was able to make it to John’s Auto repair, and Craig took the time with me to personally look over the car and diagnose the issue. It ended up being a bad alternator (original unit that finally failed after $215K miles) and despite requiring more significant time to repair Craig knew I was from out of town and did all he could to get the repairs done the very same day. Ultimately my son ended up making his flight, and thanks to Craig’s care and attention I was able to drive back home with a new installed alternator (plus battery and oil change) later that afternoon, thereby avoiding having to drive back and forth from home after waiting for the repairs to be made. Craig is just an honest and good guy. While I was waiting during the repair process, he was friendly towards all the customers who came in. He helped give extra attention to some of the more senior customers who needed additional assistance. I can’t thank him enough for the experience. This shop cares about its customers.

If you are looking for a Truly HONEST and very fair priced Auto Shop John’s Auto Repair is the BEST PLACE! Every mechanic is so nice and they really care about the people who come in, even if it’s to ask a question they will talk to you and give you advice. My daughter was trying to buy a used car and I said go to John’s Auto and see if they can hook it up to their machine & see what’s going on with it. They took her in within 10 mins and told her don’t buy it, it is junk. She thank them for helping her and asked how much she owes them, and they said nothing, you don’t owe anything. How kind is that!! Then she came back later that day asking them if they could check out another car, they said come back in an hour and we’ll take a look. They did and he told my daughter “ this is a great car and worth the price, you will just need an oil change in a few months so keep an eye on it”! She tried to give them money and they said use it on your new car. How awesome is that! Truly great good people! My daughter went to get her oil change within the few months and they did it so quickly, fair priced and now we ALL go there! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND JOHN’S AUTO REPAIR in East Windsor! You will not find a more honest and highly qualified mechanics!! Thank you always John!!

Craig is the most honest, friendly mechanic I have ever met. He's been able to take care of my brakes, bearings, exhaust, and sideview mirror as well as my mother's exhaust on very short notice for a very reasonable price. He also was nice enough to take a picture of a transmission leak for me, knowing I had just recently had that rebuilt elsewhere. Highly recommend.

You know that feeling when you find YOUR mechanic for life? That's what you get here. Like many other reviews, I can’t say enough good things about John and his team. They are honest, fair with pricing, kind, and surprisingly quick! Yea, I got a guy.

My daughter hit a patch of ice and bent the rim of her tire on a curb. She stopped by John's Auto Repair and they promptly switched out her tire to the full size spare and sent her on her way. Thank you guys so much for helping her out and charging her a fair price! You guys were her angels today! Thank you!! Much love, ~Her Mom

I can’t say enough good things about John and his team of professional mechanics. Their attention to detail, honesty, fair pricing, and outstanding customer service truly set them apart. You’ve gained a loyal customer for life. Thank you for the excellent work!

I had a flat tire and I pulled into the lot to change my tire. I wasn’t able to break the lug nuts, so I had to wait for John’s shop to open. I went up and asked if I could borrow something that could help me. John not only had the tool I needed, but came over and helped me. He also hooked me up with air for my spare, made sure that everything else looked ok, had one of his employees put on a nut that had busted the thread, let me use his sink to wash up and gave me a bottle of water since it was warm out. I offered to give him some money for his help, but he politely declined. I highly recommend John and his staff to anyone needing work done on their vehicles. They truly go above and beyond. John- thank you for being so helpful and more importantly so kind to me this morning. You made a crappy day turn into a good one! I will be back! -Eric

They have been helping my father for quite a few years... so I thought I'd check them out as my Jeep gets older.. They were more than fair and they were helpful with damage a storm caused. I will be using them for all future repairs. I will be recommending them to my friends.

By no means will this be a quick or short response, but I will try... I learned of John's Auto Repair from (Jeff) who had his daughter's car engine replaced. Jeff spoke very Highly of not only the work, but cost. He was "So Very Pleased." My review begins, when I stopped in to see if I could get an estimate for work needing to be done to my 2014 Ram 1500 Laramie Limited pickup. All of the bays were filled ( this was a sign good or bad) I was short on time. I parked and walked in behind a lady who was there for service done on one of her two cars. I was a little worried, because of my schedule. He greeted her and then said he'd be right with me. After a bit he asked, what could he do for me? I explained, Having taken my truck to the dealership for an oil change. I got it back with a new problem, my air ride suspension began to fail, but only on the front left side. He asked if I was going to leave it with him? I couldn't because I wasn't prepared to, not knowing what the assessment would be. He then offered to bring it in and put it on the rack to take a look. While looking at my truck, I asked the lady who came in before me, if she had any dealings with the shop, she said they were great, and did work on both of her cars, when he returned he gave me his assessment and that he could get it done. I'd have to make arrangements for a car and bring my truck back, in the meantime they noticed one of my tires showing wear, then offered to put the spare on, and wouldn't take a dime, wouldn't let me pay for the time and work they did. He said,"it's my good deed for the day." That was the third time I was impressed with John's Auto Repair. On Friday 11/24, I will pick up my truck, repairs done and for less than the amount I figured. I am definitely impressed. Remember when I said, all of the bays being filled is a sign, be it good or bad... I've always said, if you find a great mechanic he is either too busy to get an appointment with, or not a good mechanic. John's Auto Repair in my opinion is most definitely a Great place to get your vehicle serviced and repaired. They are Honest, and repairs are done at a reasonable price, in a reasonable amount of time. You will not be disappointed. Like I often say. You don't have to take my word, but if you need your vehicle serviced stop in and find out for yourself. I just might be in the waiting area, because they have my business as long as I have a vehicle. See you soon. Happy Thanksgiving... Be Safe...Stay Well... Keep Alert....Be Kind...

I’ve been here twice. The first time, my wife and I took our Hyundai Elantra, we dealt with the owner John and he was professional and straight to the point. The second time was absolutely horrific. Craig answered my wife’s call with no etiquette and a rude tone. When my wife dropped the car off, he continued to be rude and said my wife’s car was in the way, then proceeded to park the car in the very back of the shop. My wife told him that the vehicle was needed for transportation for our children and the lack of urgency Craig showed was uncalled for. I stopped into the shop to check the status of our vehicle and he immediately gave me a rude tone saying he didn’t even look at it yet and then followed up with multiple excuses. When I told him I would rather speak with the owner, he then said it looked like I had a “bad attitude” so I told him how unprofessional he was towards my wife and I. He then showered my wife’s grandfather and I with excuse after excuse and when I decided to walk away from the disrespectful attitude, he ran out with my wife’s car key and told me to take the car. I would not recommend dealing with Craig if you do decide to go to this shop. My rating would be 5 stars if not for the horrible experience with Craig.

Really , cool folks working at John auto repair , twice they help me with out even asking for money 💰, I did give them some , cuz they work on my car found for one hour found the repair will cost a bundle, he said ur car still fine , no need to spend a bundle for it for now . I thank them then I ask how much for the checking the car. Craig said no none , he still check my car for further test . I really appreciate them and its rare to see mechanics not trying to just fleece u out of everything.

Fantastic service. I recently moved to the area and needed an oil change. Friendly, reasonable, flexible, with genuine customer care. They didn't have to, but they kept me informed of some other tire related issues I was having, not to up my charge but to keep me informed of the potential safety hazard. Glad to have found a place I can bring my car to for servicing.

We have been to John’s Auto Repair quite a few times now for a few different services and we have always had a great experience. Craig is always extremely knowledgeable & helpful, and the team goes out of their way to help customers asap! Cannot say enough good about this place. Trustworthy, reliable, fast service. A business like this is hard to find! Great work and wonderful people.

John's Auto Repair is the absolute mechanic for you if you don't want to get conned. As a female who knows very little about cars, I am very wary of mechanics who are out to make money by suggesting that I fix this or that. Craig is such a honest and good person. He told me that there's nothing wrong with my car and he didn't charge me a single cent even though he spent time examining it. I have never met a mechanic like him! John seems very friendly too, even though I haven't had any dealings with him.

I am a review girl. Not often do I write reviews (good or bad) but I love reading reviews before I use any service. I heard good things about John’s Auto Repair but today I was honestly blown away by the kindness of John and his mechanics. I had a screw in my tire so I needed a simple plug. I called ahead to see if there was a time of day I could come in and get in and out (I had my 10 mo old daughter) with me. They couldn’t make any promises over the phone but when I pulled up, John met me outside and told me to stay in my car with my daughter and they would fix it right away. I was done in 2 min and then he told me not to get out of my car again to pay, to “not worry about it.” He made my life so much easier today when I was stressing about waiting with a baby in a car shop. Thank you!

Outstanding customer service, and great job on my repairs. I've been using John's Auto repair for several years to maintain my vehicles, and always walk out feeling like I got a great deal. They've never tried to sell me something that I didn't feel that I needed. Both John and Craig will take excellent care of your vehicles, at a great price.

I have brought both of my vehicles here on multiple occasions and am always happy with the experience. John is very knowledgeable and helpful! They do Great work at a fair price and in a timely manner. Highly recommend Johns Auto Repair!

John is awesome! My tires were low on pressure and ran out of window fluid, John and his crew took care of it right away. He’s such a nice and welcoming person, already feels like family even just on my first visit. Highly recommended!!

John is awesome and his man at the front desk, Greig is very accommodating. Example: Took my nephew's car there cause I accidentally backed into it with .y truck. John called me to asked everyone was okay. You will not get better service or personal attention like that within a 10 mile radius and I know because I drove farther than that to his shop. I highly recommend his shop.

John & Craig have been honest and straight with me, over the 20+ years I've engaged them as professionals. They've done good work & stood behind what they did. John particularly has spent hours with me over the years, clearly taking joy in answering my questions (and he has the knowledge to do it). Craig is friendly, helpful, and I have no idea how but he even remembers my phone number (and they must have hundreds of customers). They have been good, even generous to me. I trust them.

i would never trust anyone else to service my car. Just outstanding service at a very reasonable price. John and his very knowledgeable staff have a great reputation for excellent work. John's Auto is second to none !!!

My car broke down in New Jersey between Maryland and Vermont, the tow truck driver said he took most cars to johns. Great service, great mechanics. They were working on my car within a hour of them opening, got me out the door the same day. Very honest shop, was nice to see a shop that wasn’t trying to pull a scam on someone stranded. Would recommend to anyone in the area

I have been using Johns auto repair for more than 3 years and very satisfied. They are very professional and courteous. No gimmicks, real honest service and pricing. Never tried to charge me unnecessarily as some places do, infact they didn't charge me couple of times since they didn't find any issue and fixed nothing in my car. Other places would have charged me a fortune for the same. I highly recommend this place to anyone.

We went to John because the axle fell out of our car while my husband was at work, about 50 miles from our home and regular mechanic. His shop is less than a mile from my husband's job and his reviews were so positive that we decided to give him a call. I am glad we did. He was able to put the price of the towing (from another company) and the cost of the part all on his bill. Even though he was busy, after we explained that my husband had no transportation, he was able to get it done quickly. John is an excellent and honest mechanic. After bonding over fishing, he even offered to take my husband and son out on his fishing boat sometime. A nice guy!!
