Thanks For All The Help with our Motor Home 7/12/2012

I was surprised and delighted at the service we received at James Auto Center. We tried several places and no one had time to help us with our Motor Home, you guys are wonderful. You fixed our fuel problem and got us back on the road. We received great customer service and found you very knowledgeable about our Motor Home and vehicles in general. We recommend you to anyone especially those travelors who find ourselves in the same situation as us..They will help you get home. Thanks again James and the staff at James Auto Center. more

The last of the Mom and Pop businesses 4/3/2012

Back in the "good ole days" we knew the folks who owned the business where we spent our money. With the rise of big corporations those days have almost disappeared. The down side of this is we often deal with low paid employees who have no personal stake in the business and have no real authority to solve disputes, because they are required to follow inflexible corporate rules and regulations. I didn't find that at James Auto Center where I received personal service from the owner and his wife. If you have a complaint, you can go directly to the owners who will listen and bend over backward to solve the problem and make you a satisfied customer. James Auto center does cost more, but you get what you pay for. They provide personal service, they do a thorough and complete job, and they stand solidly behind their work. The mechanics have a high level of expertise and experience, and you get personal service by nice people who really care about their customers and their business. more

STAY AWAY!!! 3/21/2012

Damn, I had to put one star rating, because they wont let you do zero stars! Are these people kidding??? Someone must post fake reviews so they get some good ones. I tried to take my car there...inspite of some half hillbilly/half ghetto chick being rude and/or stupid on the phone, and warnings from friends that they were WAY over priced...but he sounds smart on the radio! If he's so smart, he'd get rid of that mean spirited, anti-people person of a skeleton that hides in the back office, waiting to pounce on potential customers who are unworthy to ask why I should pay $108 for the privilage of getting my burned out tailight replaced (plus labor and parts!) W.T.F.??? And the round one who just mumbles and says "ummm" when you ask a question... STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!! more

Excellent Service 12/1/2011

Reviews Write a review \r Your rating: \r Your rating: Loved it \r \r My 2002 Toyota 4 Runner had an unusual noise coming from the engine compartment. The auto center's test drive and the subsequent troubleshooting lead to the discovery of a faulty fan bracket and fan clutch. I was kept informed on the status of the repair by phone and I feel like every effort possible was made in order to return the vehicle to me in a timely manner. Staff was extremely easy to communicate with as well. Look no further than James Auto Center for your vehicle's maintenence needs. \r ServiceValue\r Liked: ValueDisliked: \r Edit - Delete more

Reliable 12/1/2011

Brought in my Wife's Toyota for an Eng Lite Problem and a front end vibration while applying the brakes. The Auto Center replaced an Air Fuel Ratio Sensor for the Eng Lite problem and replaced the vehicle's front rotors for the braking vibration. Our fuel mileage has dramatically increased since the Air Fuel Sensor replacement and that is ALWAYS a good thing. However, about 5000 miles after the front rotors were replaced, a slight vibration returned while appying brakes on the vehicle. I returned the vehicle to James Auto Center and the vibration was noted during the test drive. Turns out, one of the replacement front rotors was indeed defective and was consequently replaced again at NO cost to me whatsoever. In today's world were the word WARRANTY is sometimes nothing more than a gimmick, it is very comforting to know the work I have done at James Auto Center is as promised, "done right" more

Fabulous people and service! 8/11/2011

My alternator went out as I was arriving in PCB for vacation. The people at James Auto Center were incredibly friendly and provided great customer service - even provided a loaner car to get us on our way to our condo and the beach! The next morning, my car was ready; the repairs were done well and reasonably priced. Carrie and Anna went above and beyond with customer service. I highly recommend James Auto Center to the PCB locals, and I have passed their name around to our many friends who visit from Tennessee. more
