What clients say about T J Auto Repair in Somers Township (NY)
One of my front windshield wipers popped off after the last snow storm. I was unable to pop it back into place. I had read good reviews about TJ Auto so I brought my car there. The owner came right outside and popped the wiper back in place. I asked if I needed a new one and was told “no, looks like it is brand new”. I offered to pay and was told “no charge”! I just moved into the area and will definitely bring my vehicles to TJ Auto for service!
I have been here once for a tire alignment and decent work solid price besides a few slight buffs in my seat that I had to take out but after just dropping off my car and being quoted $494 just for labor of a spark plug change I will never be bringing my car here again lol ridiculous
Jimmy the owner is Truly a terrible person, was told by him that the car I bought from him was sound and all good but within the first week of buying it broke down twice and he never responded and when I showed up to his shop he told me I would have to pay full price when it was not a week after buying it from him treated terrible and given no respect after spending thousands on a car from him highly DO NOT RECOMMEND
Jimmy the owner is one of the biggest scammers I have ever met he sold me a car knowing it had problems telling me it was all good and once I paid him never responded when I had problems and when I went to his shop told me it was my own fault for not checking the car over, truly a terrible person over all
Amazing and Extremely nice owner. Forgot to ask his name. Was helping us yesterday at JFK High school. Right after we trying to reach out someone who can help us for 2hours. Finally we find TJ. Five minutes after a phone call. Another five minutes he solves the problem. Really appreciate you and two of the police officers helping us. God bless!!
Brought my car here recently. They fixed the issues but also introduced a new one - they called and told me I needed the battery replaced but I opted to not have them do it (planning on going somewhere else). Since I got the car back though, it now takes a few seconds to start up - which was NOT happening before. I also had inspection done at Honda a week before I left it here, and they reported the battery was totally fine. TJ auto says Honda “probably missed it”…. Not sure what kind of scam this is. Also - the woman on the phone was quite rude on numerous phone calls. I get having a bad day but probably best to not take it out on customers. Fortunately I didn’t have to deal with her in person.
Extremely helpful as they needed to deal with the Tire Corp in order to get me help. Thanks, Jimmy! This was my first using this garage and I WILL use them for any other service I may need. 😊
I went here to renew my inspection. They told me they can’t pass it because I need to change my breaks said they low 3.7 front and back fine 5.3 . So ok sure I went to buy breaks and wanted my dad to do it but after a week I was let me go to another place to see The other place said your breaks are fine and they are 55% 5.3 and 5.7. To me totally scam you can scam other womens but not me! Will never go back again! You should better just take the inspection money than no money at all.
Extremely rude. The woman on the phone was very condescending and rude. Maybe she should talk to her children like that, but not to a customer. I would never take my car back there again. These people couldn’t diagnose a crack Windshield.
We found a vehicle listed on FB market place and came to check it out. in our experience recently looking for vehicles most shops were dishonest about the condition of the car to say the least. Scott was very fair about the price and helpful with information about getting appointments with dmv and assured us to call if we had any issues. We were made to feel comfortable with our purchase. Thank you
Always above-and-beyond service. I have brought all my cars there, and I have bought a car from them. It is always quick, reasonable, and thorough service. Don't bother with anyone else in this area: TJ rules the road.
They are trustworthy, most importantly. I notice a lot of police officers come here so I think that speaks to their integrity as well. However they are slow, usually hours behind their estimates (as most car places). They are a bit expensive but I again, I trust them. I wouldn't do an oil change here but any major work they've done here has been good. When there was a problem they took a second look and were helpful.
just came back from a simple tire repair. had a slow leak and the gentleman found more than one culprit. fixed and i was out the door in no time. very accommodating even though they had a lot of work on hand. the nice young lady was very kind and courteous. and the price is very fair.
RELIABLE! - Extremely Fair Prices - Incredible and Personal Service, they will save your butt at 5AM for a tow, and always do the right by you and get you on your way quickly.
On a side note - I pay half as much at TJ's versus in Queens for brakes and such.
I was quoted in the city to fix a problem which made my O2 sensors keep blowing after 5 minutes, plus a bad throttle body and they wanted to change out computer and many other things ( I dont think they bothered opening up the wiring harness even though they said they checked it ).
City mechanics made me remove sound system, and all add-ons blaming that as the cause of some electrical problems also.
Brought it to Jimmy and he found it was just a wiring harness. Must have taken him hours to locate but was extremely fair (or just a much better mechanic). O2 sensors cost about 1/3rd less than I would pay in the city. Savings: Over $2500.
One time he had to torch off frozen lug bolts on a wheel, and I think he only charged me a few dollars for the new bolt and very little for the work even though it must have taken a lot of extra time I would suspect.
My entire family has been their clients for probably over 30 years and they have always treated us well.
TJ's is a reputable auto service company.
Called TJ's because we couldn't get the bolts off of our tire to change a flat. They were very responsive and sent someone right away. Before they came, we finally got the bolts to budge so we called to cancel and again they were friendly and didn't charge us. I highly recommend them if you ever need road service or a tow
Great Auto shop...Excellent quality of service from oil-change to body work, I have had the best experiences here. Never overcharging (quite the contrary), and the Customer Service is above-and-beyond.
